CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE Ronnie’s face was still sober, but not reproachful. Dana smiled at him, trying to speak brightly: "Were you really interested in Nancy when you were in high school?” "I really was.” Ronnie lit a cigaret and then absently crushed It on the arm of the swing. "But It didn't do me any good. Sha loathed me—why. I could never discover. Maybe it was something that happened when we were kids, though I haven’t the slightest memory of anything of the sort. She still dislikes me Just as cordially as she ever did.” "She doesn't dislike you,” Dana replied thoughtfully. "She couldn't. That’s only Nancy’s way. I think It’s because she's always been lonely. and grew up with older people.” "Too bad.” Ronnie said carelessly. Apparently he had lost interest in reminiscing. "She wouldn't have been lonely if she had had a different way.” He added, “Not that it matters any more. I haven't given Nancy a thought in years.” Dana looked toward the door. Did ahe imagine it or was that a slight sound inside? Perhaps it was just the wind rocking one of the chairs. "I haven't though about any one.” Ronnie said slowly, "in more than a year.” a a J the fact that he was trying to be understanding, Ronie was aggrieved by Dana's desertion. It had not been flattering, to say the least, for Dana to accept Cyril Lancasters’ invitation to go fishing. When their absence lengthened past the breakfast hour Ronnie was sure he had just cause for grievance. Gay groups eddied about him. No one was gayer than Paula, but Ronnie sensed that Paula was wearing a mask. Her high-pitched laughter held a note that was almost hysterical. For some reason Ronnie felt sorry for Paula. As though drawn by a current of sympathy, she detached herself from the others and joined him. "They should have caught all the fish in the lake by this time,” she said, adding. "It occurs to me that you and I are in the same boat, Ronnie.” "Oh, I guess we could have fished, too. if we hadn't been lazy,” Ronnie said carelessly. "Don’t be dumb. I didn't mean that.” "What did you mean?” Ronnie asked impatiently. Paula’s eyes narrowed. "Dana and I are a couple of fools,” she said slowly. "But she is a bigger fool than I ever was. Figure it out.” Ronnie frowned. Paula was always trying to b esubtle. Or was this her way of making trouble, settling a score with Dana? If she was hinting something about Scott it was all a lot of nonsense. Dana had been divorced from Scott six months now\ and it had been almost a year since she had left him. Women don’t go about in these modern times eating their hearts out for men they have deliberately divorced. Ronnie determined that he would hot let what Paula had said worry him. But an hour later he was driving to town. He had explained that business required an hour or two of his time. "I'll be back by lunch time,” Ronnie said. "Tell Dana to save her biggest fish for me.”

HE drove past the Cameron home. Nancy was coming down the walk. Ronnie stopped the car and got out. Nancy stopped and waited, her dark eyes wide. "Well. Nancy,” Ronnie teased. “I expected a big. welcoming smile and what do I get? Not even a how-we-do.” Nancy laughed nervousyl. "Servees you right. Looming up in front of me, when I thought you were miles away.” She made no move to go. Which, Ronnie decided humorously, was a real compliment. Whenever Nancy saw him. she always made a dash for a door. “Where's Dana?” "Oh,” Nancy said. She added, 'You must have had a wonderful time abroad, Ronnie. I suppose you’ve seen everything there is to see. It must have been grand.” "Not so grand. It can be lonely as the deuce when you go days on end without seeing any one you know or care about.” He thought Nancy’s face clouded a little. Nancy must be rather lonely. She had so little fun. That was why she magnified such things as traveling. On an impulse he said. "How about a spin? I’ll review for you in 15 minutes what it tookmesix months to see.” Amazingly, Nancy agreed. She said eagerly: "I’ll go if you promise not to leave out one single thing.” That was a large order. But with Nancy’s intense, interested face turned toward him, Ronnie found himself growing vxpansive. Nancy hadn’t traveled, but she was well read. Strangely enough, she ’ ’as not interested in the places that had appealed to Ronnie most. They passed Ronnie’s home and presently, returning, passed it again. Ronnie remembered what Dana had said about his home the day he had first seen her, looking lovely and glowing in that old rattletrap of a car. “Gloomy old dump,” Ronnie said now. Nancy stared. “You don’t like it?” "Not especially. Do you?” "Better than any place in town.” Nancy said. "You see, Ronnie, I was a child when your father built it. I always thought of it is a castle. I’ve always thought of it that way. Besides, it's beautiful.” Ronnie laughed.. But there was

a tight feeling in his tohrat. Os al Ithe people in the world. Nancy *ah the last he would have suspected of such sentiments. Lana hadn’t liked his home. She had told him so frankly. True, she had not known it was his home, but the fact .remained. He hoped some day Dana would grow to like it. If she didn’t, he’d have to sell ‘t after they were married and build another, side?” he asked. "Could w T e?” "You funny girl! Could we? I have an idea we could.” Nancy smiled. "It’s hard to realize it is really your home. I never associate grandeur with you, Ronnie.” "Is that one of your subtle digs? Or is it meant as a compliment?” "Do your own thinking,” Nancy retorted ?aily. Ronnie turned the car. "Would you like to have a look at it inside.” a a a npHEY drove through the tall iron gate along the curving drive. At the door, Ronnie turned to ask, “Do you like your grandeur served with all the trimmings? A touch of the bell will bring one of the servants. Or we can just turn a key in the lock an enter unannounced.” "Let's have the trimmings, said Nancy, an excited note in her voice. "Now’, I know the kind of wife you’re going to make some man some day. He wont be able to make money fast enough for you!” Nevertheless Ronnie looked pleased. He pressed the bell and a servant in livery answered immediately, bow/ed and withdrew’. "Ordinarily.” Ronnie teased, "I would say, ’How’ are you, Thornpkins?’ and he w’ould answer. ‘Very well, Mr. Ronnie. And how’ are you, sir?’ But today he senses there is something unusual in the air. He knows, intuitively, that an impression is wanted. So he .springs up at the door and then disappears.” Nancy was only half listening to the bantering talk. Her eyes shone as she moved across the soft rugs, through the lofty rooms. Splendid paimings, rare furnishings from the old world, exquisite chandeliers from great Frencn and Italian Palaces, beautiful Venetian ir : .* It was all magnificent, spectacular. An hour later Ronnie told Nancy good-by at the door of her home. "Oh, Ronnie, it’s be< n lovely. It was almost as though I had been traveling, too.” "I’ve had a great time.” Ronnie squeezed her hands. "Guess I’d better be on my way or I won't make it back by lunch time.” Half way dow’n the walk, he turned. Nancy still stood in the doorway, but the glow had left her face. She wore the expression that was more familiar to him, the solemn look of a little girl w’ho has been disillusioned about Santa Claus. ran CYRIL LANCASTER said to Dana. “Now I know why America and England went to war once. That good-looking chap was positively savage. Acted as though he had a personal grudge against me for some reason. Queer, wasn’t it?” It was after the episode on the lake when the boat he and Dana were in so narrowly avoided collision with Scott’s boat. (To Be Continued) Creamy Skins Need Careful Makeup Choice
BY ALICIA HART A girl with creamy skin has to be exacting in her choice of makeup and particularly careful about cleansing. This type of complexion is sure to look dingy if it isn’t given meticulous attention. Generally speaking, creamy skins are normal or slightly oily. You seldom see an excessively dry one. They have underlying tones of pale yellow. of course, and usually are enhanced by makeup that has subtle orange lights in it. If your skin is creamy and normal, always remember to use soap and water before cleansing with cream. If it has a tendency to be oily, cream first, then wash. Pick a rouge that matches the natural tone of your cheeks when they are flushed from exercise or excitement. Undoubtedly an off red will be better than a clear one or a pink shade. Pick Rouge Carefully This doesn’t mean that you should go in for a strange orange-henna rouge which, unless there’s something wrong with your health, never in the world will match your blood tones. Lipstick, too. ought to match the natural color of your lips. Undoubtedly one of the new East Indian colors will blend fairly closely and, in addition emphasize the creaminess of your skin. The real test of your ability to pick cosmetics that enhance your loveliness comes when you buy face powder. Don’t let any one try to sell you powder which is even a slight shade darker than your own complexion. It must match and match perfectly. Cleans Chopper A piece of stale bread, run through the food chopper after meat or vegetable* have been ground in it, will clean the chopper knives.

Fine Wine Can't Outsparkle New Evening Gowns
BY GERTRUDE BAILEY DINNER clothes are not to be outsparkled by burgundy or champagne. The newest ones of slithery black crepe have brilliant yokes and bracelet sleeves that catch the light and glitter back. You will see a lot of bead embroidery on the new clothes. Several Paris houses showed it in widely spaced motifs on black wool for afternoon dresses, and seed pearl bow knots are a favorite trimming here. Strass embroidery, jewelled bolero jackets, whole bodices shimmering with rhinestones or cut steel beads are other indications of the return to popularity of beaded trimmings. This trimming on dresses for little parties ties in beautifully with the r.ew pretentiousness of accessories. You can, of course, set a plain black dress to glittering by posing brilliant shoulder clips on it, piling rhinestone bracelets on your arms, clipping circles or brilliants on your ears. Separate belts for dress up clothes are more often than not buckled with rhinestones or colored stones. Vanity cases make much of the studded stones, and even the less formal evening bags of antelope, velvet or satin have brilliant clasps or tiny clusters of beaded embroidery, Another device for increasing the ceme-hither quality of black dinner dresses is the sheerness of their soft and full sleeves, in direct contrast to the sleek body lines. The dress sketched, for example, has sleeves of black marquisette that appear fragile across the table. Softness is introduced again in the front fullness of the skirt that manages to remain slim as a pencil at the sides.

Alarmed by Single Men Ignoring Her Writer Told Fear May Repel Those She Likes Best. Wril* fine Jordan for new lirht on your mot| traublosomr nroblrm. Read bar answers in tKsis column. Dear Jane Jordan—l am in my middle twenties, attractive, nice personality, excellent health, good cook and good housekeeper, but here’s my trouble: I attract only married men. It worries me because I am single and want to appeal to single men. but somehow I do not.
Two years ago I met a married man sep a rat e and from his wife. He loved me very dearly, but I didn’t care to marry him because he lived far from this city. A year ago I met another married man who wanted to leave his wife for me. I think I am sincere in saying

both loved me. Married men still flatter me with their remarks and ask me for dates. I simply don't attract- single men; they just pass me up. Will you please tell me what is the matter with me? Answer—ls married men are attracted to you and single men are not it only can mean that consciously or unconsciously your demeanor differs with the married and the single. Many girls who claim they really wish to marry have a deepseated fear of settling the love problem, which makes them awkward and self-conscious with any man who is a prospective husband. They are more natural and free with a married man because they know he can not interpret their behavior as a bid for a husband. He represents less risk since no immediate decision to marry must be faced. When a girl’s self-esteem is verylow she thinks a man does her a favor by proposing. She is not confident of her own worth and is constrained, affected, combative or masculine with a man who is free to marry. Her pride and her fear combine to make her stand-offish. Her defenses are erected to prevent him from regarding her as a supplicant for his favor and to avoid

the responsibilities of marriage at which she fears she will fail. Another motive may enter into the girl's behavior who attracts only married men. It is the desire to show power by taking a man who belongs to some other woman. In winning him away from another she feels the lawless thrill of the pirate whose conquests are against the established order of things. Again her self-esteem is low and requires victories. No doubt your first reaction to these statements will be incredulity, but careful study of your own conduct will give you a key to the situation which will enable you to solve it. When unconscious motives are brought into conscious control, the individual is well on the way to a satisfactory solution of any problem. a a a Dear Jane Jordan —My boy friend from out-of-town and I have been going together for about six months. Suddenly he quit writing or coming to the house. I have found out he has been dating my girl friend. They tried to keep it a secret from me. When not with each other they treat me all right. Neither of them has anything against me. Please help me. PUZZLED. Answer—Of course it is a blow to your pride to have your boy friend prefer your best girl friend. There isn’t anything you can do about it hut to be as pleasant as possible to both of them—and get yourself another boy friend. Waste ro time grieving for this one.
