Paulo Long ■watehc* Bcott Stanley's attraction to Dana deepen Ronald becomes Jealous of Scott and at ays away. Dana wonders what has happened Mrs Cameron asks Scott to stop visiting Dana Believing Dana sanctions her grandmother's Interference, Scott ceases his attentions. Dana and Scott meet at a dance and, swept along by their love for each other, decide to marrv. Dana break* the news to her grandmother. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER SEVENTEEN MRS. CAMERON sank into a rhair and stared at Dana. She looked tired, defeated. Dana, her eyes on the white, drawn face of her grandmother, said, “I'm sorry to hurt you, but I can’t help it. Scott and I love each other.” “Love, tommyrot!” scoffed Mrs. Cameron. "What do you know about love? It will be a different story w’hen there’s rent to pay and grocery bills and you need clothes and haven’t the money to buy ’em.” “We know all that,” Dana said, “but we're not worried.” “Not worried now,” Mrs. Cameron said darkly. “More fool, you! He’s a fool, too. He might have had a chance to get up in the world, but there's no chance now. Saddling himself with a young wife before he’s able to support one. You’ll both live to regret it. Mark my words, young lady!” She got to her feet then, swaying under the stress of her words like a broken reed bent by the wind. “Here, Sarah, give me a hand.” The excited voices had drawn Aunt Ellen and Nancy. Sarah, in humble devotion to her mistress, was hovering near, too. Aunt Ellen followed her sister, with frightened eyes. Nancy said excitedly: “So you’re going to marry Scott Stanley! Well, I am surprised. I didn’t know he was the marrying kind. There are lots of girls who will envy you, Dana, even though he hasn’t a bank account." “Scott and I aren’t afraid to be poor,” Dana answered proudly. “Lots of people have been poor and married. Think of the pioneers.” “Don't be simple, Dana. The good old pioneering days are gone. That was before orchid corsages had bean invented, silk stockings were counted among current necessities, and smart, expensive cars were rolling around.” You couldn’t expect Nancy to understand! Nancy wasn’t in love, wasn’t being married today to the most wonderful man in the world, Dr. Scott Stanley. Dana thought proudly that that word, “Doctor” stood for a lot. It represented all those years Scott had worked so, surmounting hardships, coming through with highest honors in his class. He was bringing all that achievement to her. She and Scott would work together, overcome difficulties. They would come through, too —proudly. Dana did not think she was being sentimental. It was all a part of her happiness and elation. a u Downstairs, sarah served breakfast with a mournful countenance. “So you’re gettin’ married,” she said, as she placed hot waffles and a pitcher cf melted butter before Dana, “and not to Mister Ronnie. I alius thought ’twould be Mister Ronnie. I could jus’ see you settin’ down in that fine house. I guess Ol’ Miss could, too.” “I’m marrying the finest man in the world,” Dana said firmly, attacking her waffle with healthy relish. “Yes’m,” said Sarah doubtfully, “I sure hopes so, Miss Dana!” At the top of the stairs Dana met Aunt Ellen's beckoning finer. “Your grandmother wants the ceremony performed here, Dana,” Aunt Ellen said, when the door closed. “She couldn’t bear it if you ran away. It would bring back too many sad memories. And it would be such a blow to her pride.” •’We'll be glad to be married here if she wants us to,” Dana said. Aunt Ellen looked at Dana in a sort of breathless wonder. “I think you’re very brave,” she said finally. “And I believe you will be happy.” "Oh, thank you, Aunt Ellen,” Dana cried. “I know we will!” “Wait, Dana—l have something for you. It's a wedding present.” Aunt Ellen crossed to an old trunk in the corner of her room and opened it. After a moment she came back, holding a worn chenille purse in her hand. “There’s almost SIOO in this purse,” she said in a low tone. “It's been there 50 years. Old money, but it will buy some of the pretty things every young girl should have when she marries.” “I couldn't,” Dana cried. “I wouldn’t take it from you for anything in the world.” “It will grieve me if you don’t,” her aunt said. "Some day, Dana, it will all crumble away.” “Dear Aunt Ellen, I couldn't take your savings!” “It was saved many years ago,” Aunt Ellen’s voice was almost a whisper. “You see, dear, I too, expected to be married. To someone handsome and young and very poor. Your grandmother had married well, and she was bitter because I wouldn’t be as comfortable and secure. I had always looked up to her and obeyed her. In the end. I gave up my fiance and after a w*hile he married someone else. He was Scott’s grandfather, Dana.” “Aunt Ellen!” breathed Dana. “Oh. poor darling!" “You see, I feel a sort of claim on Scott, too. And then I would like this money to be used for what it was originally intended—a trousseau.” m m a DANA took the money wonderingly. The worn bills crackled under her hand. Perhaps they would be falling to pieces soon. “How unhappy you must have been!” Dana said. “At first, yes It was a long time before I could be reconciled. But now it is all like a dream. It's been nice here with Agatha. We’ve always had enough to get along. I've liked my big, comfortable room. It just fits me. I don't like new things, dear. My old purple crepe kimono Is as good as new, summer after summer, when its tubbed regularly. And then in winter I have a warm, woolly one. I wouldn't exchange

them or my old felt slippers for the best new ones you could buy.” “And my quilt, which I made with my own hands when I was younger and smarter, is the only thing that bothers me much. Sometimes Sarah gets it mixed with the new one Agatha bought at a bazar. And do I get in a temper when I find that brandnew silk upstart on my bed!” Dana smiled, but there was pity in her heart. How sad, how terrible, if life should become a groove like that. The same old quilts and slippers! Her eyes, blurred by tears, were on the bills in her hand—bills that had been hidden so long in the old leather trunk. Somehow, Dana knew Aunt Ellen would never use them. They were a symbol of something she had missed, of happiness she had lacked the courage to take. “I’ll take this money,” she said suddenly. “Thank you, dear, dear Aunt Ellen. You’ve always been so kind and understanding.” She hugged her aunt close, pressing her radiant face against the wrinkled cheek. “Fight to keep your happiness, Dana.” “I'll fight like everything,” Dana said. The words had almost the sound of a prayer. tt tt tt TT was a home wedding, but It might have been anywhere for all it mattered to Dana and Scott. Some one—jiunt Ellen, Dana suspected—had 1 ghted the ivory candles in a stately old candelabra. There were flowers, brought In from the garden and arranged in vases and bowls. They perfumed the room and the flickering tapers cast a spell of beauty. Then the deep, earnest tones of the minister . . . “with all by worldly goods I thee endow . . Scott’s earnest voice. Then a quite definite pinch on Dana’s arm. Scott couldn’t be serious—not even at his own wedding. Glancing up at him, Dana saw that Scott's eyes, like his tone, were solemn. Dana wore a dark gray suit of soft woolen material. Her small, gray hat had a darker graw bow at a perky angle. Pinned to her shoulder was a bouquet of orchids. Dana had bemoaned Scott’s recklessness, while adoring him sending the orchids. What was it Nancy had said about orchids and silk stockings? What an odd thought to have while you were being married. Perhaps it was because Scott was just concluding the phrase, “I ”do endow.” Now the minister was beginning those solemn words . . . “whom God hath joined together, let no man put asunder.” It was really, wonderfully true. She and Scott were married! And nothing, nothing in the world would ever separate them. Forever and ever. Aunt Ellen glanced up at her sister just then. There was a strange gleam in Mrs. Cameron’s dark eyes and her lips straightened in a relentless, ominous line. (To Be Continued)

Tissue Cream Keeps Throat Skin Smooth BY ALICIA HART After 25, every girl with dry or normal skin should use rich tissue "ream on her throat at least once a day. Eventually a few lines will show, of course, but, providing she takes a fair amount of care of her skin and uses cream regularly, there’s no reason why her throat need ever look crepey. You seldom notice crepiness on the throat of a woman with an oily complexion. Bew’are, also, of sallowness or grayish tones, either of which often is caused by poor circulation. When you have cleaned face and neck, smooth on a layer of the heavier cream and, beginning at the base of your throat, use fingertips to lift and mold your skin upward to forehead. Don't be afraid to slap gently your throat and the flesh under your chin. This stimulates circulation and improves color as well as texture. Be careful not to stretch or bruise delicate tissues, however. When some of the cream has been absorbed and your throat and chin feel warm and tingling, remove the cream and pat with tonic. Or, if you like, omit tonic (use it in the morning) and leave some of the cream on while you sleep. Later on, you’ll probably change your mild 6kin tonic to an astringent. In any event, never forget to cleanse your throat with the same preparations and in exactly the same way as you do your face, to use oil or cream on it regularly and to make it up as carefully as your chin and forehead. If your face requires peach bloom powder, your throat does. too. But don't let any one persuade you to put rouge in the hollow between collar bones.

BY GERTRUDE BAILEY - EVENING tailleurs, those semiformal costumes that were important in every mid-season collection in Paris, have made new demands of millinery for little evening occasions. To wear with the pencil slim tailleurs de minuit, usually instep length, are evening toques or caps that are seldom more than a pouff of gold cloth and a whiff of veiling. They are as soft as kitten ears or as sculptured as coiffures and provide the feminine touch that is required for straight line silhouettes. There is anew gold spun taffeta that has undertones of antique Persian colorings being used in formal headgear here. The forward peak toque at the far left, for one, is made of shirred bands of this fabric in a Persian rose color. Another gold and black taffeta cap is. saucer shallow covered with rosettes clustered to the fore. It is matched by a rosette neckpiece that ties in back, a lovely formal touch for the neckline of your black dinner gown. a a tt LANVIN has made an evening cap of white ermine, pointed toward the front. The forward movement is still the most important one in hats. Mainbocher

and Patou like classic black evening hats with visor effects trimmed with paradise or aigrets. You could hardly call the spotted veiling caps, of Mainbocher’s or the mesh caps of Schiaparelli’s bona-fide hats, though they will take their place for dinner suits. And for very formal occasions the beaded caps held on by jeweled, plume combs and the ruched tulle chignons are as fantastic as diadems. Veils take angular shapes for the imposing little hats of larne that you can wear with metal or jeweled accented gowns of afternoon type, and your fur coat from cocktail hour right through the evening.

NEW FROCKS SHINE WITH RHINESTONES Shining, but like dew, are some of the most recept and most formal frocks. Rhinestone flecks, unfurled in a delicate pattern that dots a simple crepe, are chosen by the more sensitive, but for the dramatic girls, allover sequins in cerulean blue are stirring as night. Story Is Tolcl Mrs. Lula Albert told the story, “The Trail of the Christmas Spirit,” at the Emerson Grove Garden party this week.

BY ELLEN WORTH A dress like this will fill your daytime needs admirably. It is designed along lines which will appeal particularly to the woman with mature figure, that needs flattery. The softly falling collar that detracts from bodice breadth is cut in one with the vestee, which makes it simple t'o sew. The sleeves, slim at the shoulders, widen gracefully toward the wrists. The narrow front gore slenderizes the skirt. Woolens are especially suitable for this smart model. Style No. 1621 is designed for sizes 36, 38, 40. 42, 44, 46, 48 and 50-inches bust.

Sparkling Wrappings Enhance Holiday Aspect of Yule Presents

Good-to-eat Christmas gifts can be given a holiday aspect and made more appetizing with sparkling wrappings that permit the contents to show through. A plum pudding looks very Christmassy when presented on a glass plate and wrapped—plate and all —in a clear sheet of cellophane, tied with bright transparent ribbons. A loaf cake becomes a festive package when covered with the crystal-clear wrapping and decorated with a fan bow. To make this bow, cut two pieces of the wrapping sxlo inches and fold in 1-16-inch accordion pleats, winding each pleated piece in the center with spool wire. Spread one end in fan effect and tape with small piece of Scotch cellulose tape, folded. Tape half of opposite ends of each piece together and spread remaining ends. Cut the fan low in center and attach to the package. Gay Trimmings On a jar of jelly, wrapped in a yellow sheet, an effective decoration is a spray of red and clear drinking straws of cellophane. Use about 25 straws and tie tightly at center with spool wire. Then attach ends of wire to a circle of cardboard IV2 inches in diameter. Lay the jar on the wrapping, gather at center top of jar, insert cardboard circle at gathers, and fasten with spool wire. Surplus wrapping should be cut away. A candy doll may be fashioned from small mints and peppermint sticks, and dressed in a costume of red transparent wrapping. For the body, wrap the small candies in clear cellulose film, inserting at top and bottom a cardboard circle 114 inches in diameter. Gather wrapping at center of circles and tie with spool wire. For the head, cover a large flat gum drop wit., clear wrapping, gathered at edge and fasten to body with spool wire.

A Day’s Menu Breakfast — California grapes, cereal, cream, crisp broiled bacon, crisp toast, milk, coffee. Luncheon — Oysters poulette, celery hearts and carrot straws, peaches molded in raspberry juice, oatmeal cookies, milk, tea. Dinner — Stuffed pork tenderloin, cinnamon apples, scalloped potatoes, ten-minute cabbage, jellied beet salad, Spanish cream, milk, coffee.

Musician’s Complaint on Working Women Arouses No Sympathy in Jordan Feminine Independence Is Fault of Men, She Says, Pointing* Out It Makes Males Work Harder to Overcome Competition. If you find opinion* in thi* column which conflict with your own. itart a discussion by putting your thoughts in a letter. Dear Jane Jordan —Hardly a day goes by without advice from you to girls to go to work as a means of forgetting a love affair or to become independent of their families, etc. I may be narrow' minded about the idea of girls cutting off their own “matrimonial noses” by holding jobs that a lot of young men should be holding down, but I have been think-

ing of writing a letter like this for a long time. Your "work to be independent" advice certainly has been taken by thousands of girls. The effect is the same in all cases. As soon as they get a job their attitude changes and from then on, instead of their old characters. they have an independent air. Strange as it seems, some even demand that you spend more on them. Do you realize how many more young mpn could marrv these girls who are holding jobs which men should be holding if only they were in these jobs? The war put women to work, but that should have been temporary instead of permanent. Naturally it was the employer's fault for keeping smaller salaried women instead of taking on the men who came back for more money. Why should the young men keep paying and paying through advice like yours and others? Don't get

me wrong. There are a great many jobs which a woman can hold down and a man can't. They’re the ones and the only ones which a woman should hold, discounting circumstances which make it compulsory. In my opinion the greatest unemployment cure would be to put the men and young men in the jobs they should be holding. I would like yours and other opinions as soon as possible. a MUSICIAN. Answer—-In other words you’d like to have life made a little easier for men by eliminating competition. If there weren't so many competent women holding down jobs men wouldn't have to be more competent than women in order to get jobs away from female competitors. As it is. a man has to raise his energy level considerably to find a place in the business world. That makes more trouble for men and it’s not fair to trouble men. When a woman is independent she can be a lot more choiry about the husband she chooses. She doesn't have to marry the first man who asks her in order io relieve her family of the burden of her support. That makes women harder to get, which means more trouble for men. After marriage, too, it’s a disadvantage to have a wife who can leave when she doesn’t like home conditions. If she is tired of things like a philandering husband, of overtime domestic labor, back talk, neglect or cruelty, she can walk out and still eat. That means that a woman is harder to keep. More trouble for men. Time was when a man’s superiority wasn't threatened so seriously by women. He went cut and shot game, hewed down trees and lopped off a couple of savages before breakfast. His wife was his property and he did what he chose with her. When animal strength was the measure of superiority there was no question about woman’s need of him. But he made a mistake. He invented machinery, thereby liberating himself from hard labor and throwing more men out of work than woman's invasion of the business world ever has done. He not only did himself, out of work, but he lost his slave by this move. The easiest thing to do would be to eliminate this upstart woman who discovered she had a brain and was a person in her own right. If he could get her back in the inferior position life wouldn't be so hard for him. As it is he has to think of something else if he is to keep his much vaunted superiority over the female of the species. It is all her fault for seeking her opportunity to escape when it came. Adam had the same idea about it. If any one has any suggestions as to what he is to do about it, I’ll be glad to print them. I’m afraid I can't be much help.

Maid Leaves for Another Job, But Whose Fault Was It All

BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON “Caroline, please keep your hands out of that flour. I can’t use it if you touch it again.” Caroline dipped up another handful and let it filter through her fingers back to the pastry board. “Stop that, Caroline.” “I don’t have to. You’re not my mother. You’re paid to work here.” “Well, it won’t be long if you are going to be in my way all the time,” “I’m going to tell mother what you said. When you came I heard her say she wouldn’t have you if you weren’t kind to me.” “Bea good girl. Here, I’ll let you shell peas if you like. Where I used to work the little girl like to shell peas.” „ A Reprimand fo£ Maid Caroline looked at the peas and without condescending to answer walked out of the kitchen. A little later her mother came in. “Jennie, I can’t have you being ugly with Caroline.” “She was spoiling good flour,” said Jennie, “and I couldn’t throw it out. There's just enough left for the bread tomorrow.” “Please remember then that she is only a little girl. You must learn patience. She is very easily hurt.” After dinner: “Jennie, we are going out. I want you to stay with Caroline.” “Very well, Mrs. Lake,” said Jennie, who had planned to see her sister’s new baby. “It’s your bedtime, Caroline,” 1

said Jennie at 8. “Come and I’ll help you get undressed. Your bed’s all turned on.” But Caroline turned on anew tune and sat down. “Really you must go. If you don’t and you’re all sleepy in the morning your mother will blame me.” “If you don’t go I’ll have to explain it to Mrs. Lake. Come on, now. Don’t let’s fuss. Bea good little girl and I’ll tell you a story.” Caroline regarded her curiously. “Tattle tale. That’s what you are 1 ” A Tiny Tyrant “That’s impolite and unkind.” “I don’t have to be polite to you. You just work here. I’ll tell mother you threatened me and she doesn’t allow that.” The prevocious child kept this up for a month and finally Jennie left. She was a very good maid,” said Caroline’s mother, “but she was impatient with my little girl.” “Oh,” said the lady telephoning. “That won’t do at all. I have two children and I must have someone who is kind.” I wonder if any mother knows exactly how her children are treating the human beings with hearts and feelings who do her work.
