NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER NINETEEN T ATER It was to sefm to Julia that from the moment she had met Smith Garland her life had speeded up immeasurably. Sometimes she felt that she must look much like a character in one of those fantastic, motion picture reels, where evrything moves at erratic top pace. But she was to learn that every one and everything connected with the dynamic night club owner moved in the same way. Once he had obtained the idea for his White Club it was a reality to him, and he moved at once to make it a reality for the public. Within a week after she had signed a contract with Garland, she and Amy were in a larger and much more expensive apartment. That had been Garland's idea, not Julia’s—but taking Amy along was Julia's idea. She had protested the move at first, but Garland was adamant. ‘•You’re Nadine White,” he told her imperturbably. "Nadine White ---and you've got to have an address. I'll sweeten your salary enough so you can afford it.” It was as simple as that, anti the next thing Amy and Julia knew they were ensconced on the top floor of a smart tower. There was an elevator with gilt doors and an operator who wore flaming red. There was a doorman as splendid as an admiral reviewing his fleet. And their apartment was in keep-ing-even to the black and gold bathroom with mirrored walls. ‘ I don’t mind smothering every lime I sit in this furniture,” Amy said, "and I don't mind wading up to my knees in the Chinese rug—but I’ll be ciarned if I like to see myself taking a bath. It startles me. There’s four of me in that bathroom. and every time I take a shower I feel like I was doing it in a train station.” "Or a nudist colony,” suggested Julia, laughing. I

'’"T'HE truth was that Julia had Jittie time to let the apartment worry her. She did find It rather silly and disturbing to come down in the gilt elevator and have the operator say, "Good morning, Miss White.” But most of the time she was in Garland's rehearsal hall with the orchestra he had brought together especially for his new night club. And when she wasn't there she was trying on gowns-all of them white, for she was to wear nothing else. When she wasn’t trying on gowns and shoes she was having her hair treated in a shop that Smith Garland had selected. Soon her hair was white—and yet not white, and Julia wasn't sure she liked it. But Amy thought it was more than becoming; and Tom Payson, who often appeared at rehearsals, told Julia it was nothing less than lovely. "But it doesn’t change you. for me.” he said. "You're still Julia.” "Yes . . . I'm still Julia, and I'm worried.” "Why?” "All this money that Smith Garland is spending—like water. Os course, if I don't pan out he can get another singer. But I keep thinking that I’m the one to open the club. If I’m not good, then the word will get around and it will give his dream a frightful set-back.” a tt tt PAYSON laughed. "Don't worry about Garland. He knows what he's doing, Julia. And as for your not being a knockout, that's nonsense.” One thing seemed certain the opening night would be a success. Already Garland had issued his publicity and newspaper advertising, and the reservations were flooding in. Smith Garland was known as a night club owner who gave the customers something extra for their money, and his two existing clubs were popular. Julia hardly recognized herself in the advertisements and posters. She hadn’t seen profs of the photographs for which she’d sat all of one morning. They were sent to Garland for acceptance or rejection —and he had accepted, Julia saw, only the most dashing and provocative ones. "Nobody would ever dream that was Julia Craig,” she told Amy one

afternoon, pointing to an advertisement which featured her picture. "It isn’t,” Amy said comfortably. "It's Nadine "White. And you know, ■j I think I’d better start calling you Nadine, before I slip up in public some time.” "If you dare stop calling me Julia 111—I’ll install another mirror in the bathroom!” n * u ON THE opening night the town realized that the White Club was everything Smith Garland had 1 promised. Illuminated by searchlights I mounted on the building across the street, the new club shone rcsplendcntly with its tall white pilasters and wide doors of Mediterranean blue. And the interior struck the patrons breathless when they first glimpsed its simple beauty of line. The walls were high and white, seeming to reach a summer night sky of dark blue. The chairs, and the settees along the wall, were in white leather, and even the carpeting was white—the latter represen! - ing Garland’s victory in a strenuous argument with his head janitor. Waiters wove white jackets, and the band white evening clothes. But whenever this stunning absence o.' color threatened to become monotonous, Garland's decorator had inserted a touch of blue. It was indeed a triumph of setting. I But the public is critical. Those who had paid good prices for firstnight tables would be quick to see j where Smith Garland had missed. ; Garland knew this; and all he had to comfort him was the parallel knowledge that the public is as quick to accept and acclaim. In Julia’s dressing room he told j her this. “But I’m not saying it ; will be easy,” he added. "They like ; the place, and they like the dance I music. They like the food—and now they’re out there wondering how they’ll like you. Yours is the hardest job of all, Nadine. You have to cap the climax.” tt a a grief, Smith!” Julia heard V_T a familiar voice in the doorway and looked up to see Tom Payson striding toward her. “Don’t scare the girl to death!” Payson touched her shoulder. "You’ll knock ’em dead, Julia.” Tom,” said Julia shakily. Just one song,” Garland warned. “And an encore if they beg for it. This first night is tough on you—and if you’re weak we don’t want them to get onto it.” Then he left the dressing room in his quick, nervous stride. Payson laughed. "Don’t mind him, Julia. He’s so excited he doesn’t know he’s doing.” "He's excited?” exclaimed Julia. "What do you think I—” She stopped quickly. A tiny green light flashed on the wall. She stood | up, quickly arranged her long white j gown, “it’s my number, ’ she whis- | pered. 1 Good luck, kid. I’ll be out there leading the cheering.” , tt * a AS she walked out into the spotlight there was no applause as there was that first night on Tony Latta’s gambling ship. Suddenly, Julia realized that Garland’s publicity has been so extended as to arouse their skepticism. In effect, their silence meant, "We know nothing about you yet, Nadine White. We’re waiting to learn if what we’ve read is true.” Then a queer thing happened. Out of all that crowd, the face of Peter Kemp focused into Julia’s gaze. He sat at a small table with a young, dark girl—a quiet, pretty girl whose eyes betrayed her awe for this glittering Nadine White. The sight gave Julia an odd feeling and she thought, "She is the girl he will marry, and she will always think of me as strange—and yet she is no different from me . . And then the music began .. . “ . . . learn to love, if you want me ... . . . learn to trust me if you’d have me . . It was a dragging, plaintive tune —a tune that must have been written for Julia's appealing voice. When she reached the chorus she held her arms out toward the skeptical crowd, dropped her voice to a husky whisper, singing "Learn to love, if you want me . . There in the glitter of the spotlight, with the sad, mad music drifting around her, she became Astarts—Astarte of old, in a modern gown, singing a siren song in the idiom of today. Suddenly the crowd could not wait to tell her it was sorry it had doubted. Suddenly it had voice, breaking into the song, making Julia stop for a moment until it had finished. And when she ha.d finished, the applause began again, louder now and more prolonged. tt tt a I'VE done it,” she thought, making her way unsteadily toward the exist. “I’ve done it! And they thought I couldn't!” She passed a long table, lined with a party of guests. Someone said, "She's pretty, isn't she? I can't blame Tom.” It was a woman's voice, and it was a woman's voice which answered, too, as Julia went by; "Os course he can't be serious, even if he did back Garland with money to start this place. Imagine Tom marrying a night club singer!” Her face flaming, Julia hurried toward her dressing room. Smith Garland was there waiting, a broad smile on his face. "You were marvelous. Nadine.” But Julia did not hear him. "Is it true that Tom Payson put up the money for all this?” (To Be Continued)

Lacy Valentines Help Solve Leap Year Problem

BY MARY MARGARET M’BRIDE NEW YORK, Feb. 11 (NEA)— Going on the principle, apparently, that on Valentine’s Day, men's hearts are to be softer, the girls are to get in their best licks for 1536 Leap Year Friday. The valentines from her to him come right out and say, "Wil 1 you marry me?” For centerpieces on Vaientine tables, beautiful blond papier mache women dressed in billowy skirts and lace paper pantaloons hold out provocative arms. One of the most popular place cards has a girl standing on a frog, crying: “Gome leap with me and you shall see that I’m for you and you’re for me.” Lacy valentines are all the mode this year, but with a difference. The lace is real, not paper. A bow of lace is used as a tie or a strip of stiffened lace becomes a border and there is one lovely lady with a skirt of real lace under cellophane. Among the centerpieces that have no definite Leap Year but only a romantic implication are: a large red heart filled with favors standing on a silver paper platter; a Cupid with a red heart halo and a flounced white skirt trimmed in red; a Mickey Mouse postman with a red mail sack filled with favors and a large red mail box with hearts as fastener. tt tt tt 'T'HE favors themselves may be red snappers with ruffled ends trimmed with hearts, tiny heart-shaped bottles of perfume, or boxes of candy, goldfish wedding and engagement rings. In addition to the centerpiece there are all sorts of table gadgets to put guests in romantic mood. You can get tablecloths with stylized hearts of red in silhouette against a white background, red mailbox nut cups, paper plates confetti to throw. There are even candles for the cakes, made in heart-shape and they are nondrip, too. Valentine games, however, drip —with sentiment. The old-fash-ioned ones, with heart prizes, are popular at this time, particularly if you have made your party a costume one with the men in powder and breeches and the women in crinoline. A game of archery with a big heart for a target and arrows shot from Cupid’s bow will while away the time before supper, or you might try pinning a small heart within a large one, the pinner to be blindfolded, of course. For supper, find partners by matching hearts. Half of a sentimental couplet is written upon the heart that the woman gets and the other half on the heart given to a man. The two must find each other to complete the verse. PROPYLAEUM DAY PROGRAM OUTLINED Propylaeum Day, Monday, Feb. 17, is to feature a program by Mrs. Jane Johnson Burroughs and Walter Whitworth. The contract bridge luncheon was held today at the clubhouse with Mrs. Fletcher Hodges, social committee chairman, in charge. She was assisted by Mesdames Edward Lynn, C. Fred Davis and Joel Whitaker.

HOLDUP PREVENTS SET

Today’s Contract Problem East is playing the contract at four hearts. The bidding was South, one diamond; North, two diamonds; East, two hearts, West, two no trump; East, four hearts. The bidding should give South sufficient information to defeat the contract.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY WM. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League A CTIVITIES of the American ii. Bridge League are now truly national in scope. With headquarters maintained in New York, Cleveland and Los Angeles, the league is doing a great deal to promote and develop the game of duplicate. Duplicate is a real sportsman’s game: The nice part is that it can be enjoyed by a large number of people with nothing at stake, except the honor of winning. Less than a year ago A1 Sobel, then eastern director of the league, went to Los Angeles to work with Tom Stoddard, who is in charge of the Pacific Coast division. Asa result, today thousands of players in the far western states are enjoying competitive play. Winners of their major events are sent East each year to compete in the masters’ tournaments. Here’s an interesting hand selected from one of the Pacific Coast tournaments. Against the three no trump contract, East fooled declarer and opened his short diamond suit. Declarer played low from dummy and West won the trick with the queen. West now returned the jack of clubs, the suit that had been bid by his partner. Declarer played low and East realized that, if he attempted to win this trick, he would have no re-entry, so he played a small club. Now it seemed as if the natural thing to do would be to win with dummy’s king. However, if de-

clarer did this, the contract would be defeated, because West, when he got in with his king of diamonds, would return a club and East would be able to run off all his clubs. Declarer’s only chance to make his contract was to hope that West held only two clubs. Therefore, declarer had to grant him this trick. When West returned a club, East, of course, could count that West had no more clubs, so he won this trick wfith the ace. Now you can rot stop declarer from making four heart tricks, three diamonds, a club and two spades for four no trump. (Copyright, 1936, by NEA Service. Inc.)

French Create Weird Styles for U. S. Sale B)i United Pres a PARIS, Feb. 11.—Sleeves shaped like tennis racquets, trousered evening dresses, hats and dresses trimmed with vegetables are just a few of the many weird innovations of couturiers who, having lost much British trade because of court mourning, are trying all the harder to captire American trade. In their spring and summer styles some couturiers go Chinese, others Spanish, Russian, Turkish, even Ethiopian, in odd contrast with the classic Grecian lines seen in more conservative places. It is too early to predict what styles are to dominate, but undoubtedly yellows, shading from deep mustard to palest citron, are to prove popular as they are shown at all houses. Among the erratic costumes displayed are voluminous white voile gowns, caught in at the hem to form Turkish pantaloons. With them go flopping gilt sandals held on to the feet by a strap between the toes. These oriental gowns usually are worn under an evening coat made of brightly colored wooden beads woven into a loose mesh and weighing several pounds. Pajamas are shown as a foundation under a chiffon evening gown. Another evening costume is composed of pajamas whose full legs float back like trains, and frothy mousseline train petticoats are worn under some evening skirts. Glazed or gilded linen, cut in lacy designs like paper doilies, is used for petticoats under other full skirted evening gowns. One famous dressmaker shows a garment which, when buttoned in front, makes a coat, but when put on backwards becomes a dress with white pique reverse trimming on the back. There is the usual assortment of tailored linen pique garments which become beach costumes when skirt and jacket are removed.

even speaks to him. I’m sure h® doesn’t like her, but he is too friendly with her to suit me. We have had trouble over her before, but he won't leave her entirely alone. I’ve gone with lots of boys, but none of them meant anything to me except this one, but I've considered giving him up many times. Don’t you think that if he really loved me he would try to make me happy? I'm always happy when I’m with him and we plan to go to college together. Is there any way I can keep this girl from coming between us? Or should I give him up. ALYCE. Answer—Something in your letter calls up the vision of a small child expressing its love for an animal by squeezing the breath out of it. Love is something you can’t grasp like that. It’s charm rests on the fact that it is given—never demanded. You can’t say to the boy, “Behave as if I were the only girl worth noticing because such exclusive attention makes mo happy.” In so doing you put a coercion upon his personality which makes him spring away in self-protection. Your jealousy of a girl whom you are sure the boy doesn’t like shows that you secretly doubt your power to hold your own, even with weak competition. Now you’re only 18 and you may as well face some facts. Strict fidelity between iovers is perhaps impossible and it is just as impossible for you as for him. Even though your behavior is technically perfect, some mental promiscuity is pretty sure to exist. Is every one else simply null and void beside him or is it still entertaining to talk to others? Why expect to receive from him that which you can not give yourself—namely, total absorption in another personality?
