again. Was he really glad to go—would he go without leaving a; single hope of reunion except that gay, boyish laugh? Mary cried herself to sleep that night, very softly. But the morning came, as it always comes even after the longest night, and Mary was scarcely dressed when a knock at the door told her that Tony was ready. Together they set out for the field near the town where Tony had discovered a smother surface than the one which brought disaster on his arrival in Moosetown. Tony was in flying dress and carried a small suitcase. Mary, her short, tousled hair Plowing in the spring breeze, looked even more delightfully girlish than ever. But somehow conversation between them was a little strained. “Are you glad to be getting back to Montreal?" queried Mary as they strode along toward the field. “Oh, yes, of course . . . see my father again, and all that,” replied Tony carelessly. “Os course, I’ll be back here again some time.”

“DOME time!” the very indefiniteness of the words struck Mary like a blow. Suddenly she seemed to know that he would never come back! Montreal, his old associates, his father, his work —his girl there! For the first time it struck her—so attractive a fellow as Tony would be bound to have a girl there! Odd that she hadn’t thought of it before. But of course it must be true. Mary fell silent as they walked along together. Finally she felt obliged to make conversation. “And what are you going to do when you get back?” she asked. “Oh, go back to the hospital, I suppose,” returned Tony carelessly. “Be an interne again. Learn my

tfAde. Then I’m going to find a location like this —where things happen ” Mary's heart leaped. A location —like this! Where things happen! Could it be that he was thinking. . . V “Things happen?” she murmured. “Here?” “Sure,” replied Tony. “Wnte could you get a more exciting job than being a country doctor in a place like this? B.g hospital in the city? Spend half our time making out reports and the other half balancing tea-cups! Dispensing bread pills and hokum to a lot of fat old cats who aren't sick anyway! Like it better here where it’s like eating hash—never know what’s going to turn up next ” BBS THE plane stood at a comer of the field just ahead, with Greasy fussing at the motor in a gesture that was little short of a caress. “You don’t want to bury yourself in a hole like this, Tony!”

burst out Mary. (And “Oh, how I wish you would,” she said to herself i. “You want to be in a city, where there’s excitement, and lights, and places to go, and ideas, and new people all the time. Away from all this narrow-minded-ness and—and —ignorance!” She blurted out the last word explosively. “You mean YOU do!” corrected Tony gravely. “That’s it, I guess,” admitted Mary candidly. “That’s what I mean.” There was another silence between them as they walked across the field to the plane. “All ready, Greasy, is she?” called Tony as they approached. In his impatience, Greasy already had the motor throbbing. “Sa-a-ay! Like a jackrabbit!” shot back Greasy. “And will I be glad to ... ” “Going to take her up for a little trial hop,” announced Tony. “No use starting off for Montreal without a little test!” a u n u GREASY’S face fell. Visions of anew crack-up danced before his eyes. “Say—” he began. But Tony cut in ahead of him. “Get in!” he said to Mary, his tone completely matter-of-fact. Mary drew away slightly. “Come on, get in!” Tony urged. “Are you crazy?” “Sure, but what’s that got to do • with it?” asked Tony cheerfully. And with the same impudent grin spreading across his face he picked Mary up bodily. She struggled faintly, half-frightened, half-de-lighted at the prospect of a hop—a chance that might never come to her again—with Tony as pilot. “Tony, you mustn’t!” she objected faintly. “Please, Tony . . . let me down!” Which the grinning Tony promptly did—into the forward cockpit of the little plane. “Just a little spin! You'll love it!” he cried above the hum of the motor. “You'll love it!” And he climbed into the pilot's cockpit behind her. “But if Dad should find out —” tt u TONY maliciously speeded up the motor, which responded with a deafening roar. “Can't hear you!” he shouted impudently. “Can’t hear a word you say!” And with a louder roar of the motor, the plant trundled down the field, bouncinr. and rocking on he rough s rface, and suddenly spurned the L-*ound behind it. Following frantically-motioned instructions from Tony, Mary adjusted the speaking-tube earphones over her curly, windwhipped hair. “How about it?” shouted Tony into the tube. “I hate to admit it,” she replied, “but it's wonderful!” “Higher?” he asked. They were getting accustomed to the roar of the wind and motor, and he spoke more normally. Marry peeped over the edge of the cockpit at tha straggling houses and overhanging pine forests of Moosetown. “Yes,” she replied, speaking more softly into the tube. “As high as you can go!” As though shocked at her own daring. Mary relapsed into her seat as; the ship circled iiigher and higher, peering over the edge of the cockpit from time to time. Then she took up the speaking-tube again, and as though speaking to it alone rather than to a person at the other end, she said softly. a a a “nnONY —can you hear me?—l’m A happier than I’ve ever been in my life! I’m happy, Tony—so happy I’m crying!" “You mean latching, don’t you?”

came back Tony’s voice through the tube. “No, Tony, I’m too happy to laugh”—but a smile won out over imminent tears. Puzzled, Tony shot back through the tube “You don’t think the altitude's making you a little dizzy?” “No. I’d like to go even higher,” returned Mary, glancing over the side at the miniature map of the Moosetown country that lay far below. She lowered her voice and spoke again as to the tube itself. “Because I couldn’t talk to you like this if we were down on the ground, or if you were looking at me. This is kind of like talking to your picture up in my room, and saying, ‘Tony, I don’t want you to go away.’ ” a a a WHETHER Mary intended the words for Tony, no one but Mary can ever be sure. But the fact remains that he heard every word. He stared at the tube like one who has seen a wonder. “W-wh-what was that?” he stammered. “I don’t want you EVER to go away,” came Mary's soft voice. “I know it’s wrong to talk like this, but I don’t care. It seems right, way up here, just us two! You can’t go away without knowing what fun you’ve brought into my life—what you’ve come to mean to me!” “Now, Mary!” came Tony’s voice. “You’re too young to be Saying such things! Why, you’re iust a kid!” “Am I?” “Well, I THOUGHT you were!” Say what's happening up here, anyway? You were just a little kid down on the ground, but now —.” Jubilantly he resumed, “Why I don’t care what it is, it’s all right! I’m just as daffy as you are, right now! And a swell time to find it out, just when I’m going away! For two cents I’d head for Montreal right this minute!” B B B THE ship dipped suddenly. Terrified, Mary cried “No, no! Not now! Please! Take me down, please!” Into a long, circling glide went the ship, bounced slightly, and rolled across the field. Tony jumped out, and lifted a trembling Mary from the plane. For just a moment they were in each other’s arms. Then came a sudden splintering crash, and the two sprang apart. Rounding the fuselage to see what was going on, they saw a strange slight. Mary MacKenzie’s father, purple •with rage, and spluttering expletives, was hacking violently at the wing of the plane with an ax. Struts, covering and wires rapidly were becoming a tangle wreckage under his furious blows. “This’ll teach you to take my daughter away!” he blazed. “I’m on to you and your tricks!” he yelled, swinging the ax. “I’ll fix your clock, you young smart-aleck! Now get out! Get out o’ this town!” Tony took one quick step toward MacKenzie in furious anger, then suddenly stopped and began to laugh hysterically. “Are ye mad, man?” growled MacKenzie. “No,” laughed Tony. “But now—” and he pointed to the smashed wing of the plane, “ —now I CAN’T get out!” (To Be Continued)

Best Frocks Are Simple BY ALICIA HART Rules for good taste in dressing are the same for every woman, whether she has an extremely limited budget or a very liberal clothes allowance. She should buy simple dresses and suits—well cut and made of the best materials she can offord. It is far better to have one fine dress with two or three different collars than three mediocre outfits that stretch out of shape, fade at the cleaner's and look shoddy after the first week. Learning to care for your clothes is as important as knowing how to buy them. Why get a beautifully tailored skirt if you have no intention of keeping it pressed or a superior felt hat if you never use a hat brush? Pay special attention to your shoes. I know several women who include cleaning and heel-straight-ening allowances right in their beauty budgets. Don’t spend so much on hair and face that you have no money left for grooming. It really is better in the iong run to have home instead of professional facials and to do your own nails than to spend huge sums on these and do without lifts for your run-down heels and stockings that actually flatter your legs. Speaking of stockings, you know, of course, that you should wear a fresh pair every day. Rinse them out in soap suds and warm water the minute you take them off. Buy the kind and shade which make your legs look graceful and slender. Keep the seams absolutely straight. Unless you have legs worthy of a beauty contest, don’t go in for exotic nets and laces or contrasting arrows at the ankles. Be conservative when it comes to stockings and shoes.

Mother, Daughter Dress Much Alike

Youthfulness is accented in this Patou creation of sheer wool with hand-drawn work on the bodice, bust widening sleeves and handkercheif linen collar. It has especial appeal for the young girl.

BY ROSETTE HARGROVE PARIS, March 2.—(NEA)—The gay young thing of today adores black and absolutely refuses to wear anything so childishly simple as a pale pink or blue tulle evening dress, which was the accepted style for the coming-out ball some 10 years ago. And there are few houses today that specialize in styles for grandmothers, for example. The fesult is that you will find mother and daughter wearing the same style of suit or dress with perhaps, for the former, a subtle toning down of some too original or too vivid detail. When selecting a wardrobe for your girl, start off with a suit for town, traveling and even sports wear. It is the foundation garment, and she can choose one with variable accessories which will do double and even treble duty if necessary. This can be in one of the new, cheery tweeds or in hand-knit wool —both are smart. Flat and square-heeled shoes —provided she is not too short—accompany the

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League 'T'HE come-on signal is one of -*• the most elementary of defensive plays. For most players, it marks the dawn of thoughtful bridge—it raises the curtain which gives one the first glimpse of the game’s unlimited possibilities. Bridge provides many thrills, but few can equal the first realization that one can call for a certain lead by discarding a high spot card. Like all new toys, however, thisone is likely to be abused. The inexperienced player will signal at every opportunity, without considering whether the requested lead actually will provide the best defense. Today’s hand shows how an illtimed signal may wreck the defense. The declarer was Thomis R. Brown of Pittsburgh, and. he was quick to take advantage of a defensive error which enabled him to set up a pretty squeeze play. He won the opening diamond lead in his own hand with the ace and led the jack of hearts, which was allowed to hold. West’s double marked him with one or both of the major kings, but he dared not cover the heart lead, for that would set up the whole suit in dummy. Brown now played the ace and king of clubs, discarding a spade from dummy. A third round of clubs was won by East's queen and West thoughtlessly played the eight of spades, calling for a lead in that suit. East returned a spade, but declarer went up with the ace, and proceeded to lay down his remaining clubs. On the first two leads, West could discard a heart and a diamond, but on the third lead he was in trouble. He had to hold the king of spades as protection against queen

The simple but nevertheless smart afternoon dress may be w r orn with a swagger fur coat or cape which can also, by the way, complete the traveling suit if further warmth is desired. The dress may be fashioned of lightweight wool or silk. Both are smart, but the style should show some fine handwork and the necessary light touch at the neck and perhaps also at the wrists. Extravagant sleeves and original collars may be worn by the young girl with far greater impunity than her mother. B B B YOU will seldom find the 18-year-old able to resist glamorous evening clothes.

and jack, and another red discard would set up one of the red suits in dummy. Regardless of West’s discards, declarer was able to enter dummy with the diamond king, and would have enough set up cards to discard his two losing spades. If West had not ill-advisedly called for a spade lead, East would have returned a diamond, and with that play the contract would be impossible. It would have taken out declarer’s last entry to dummy, and he could not have avoided losing a spade trick to West’s king at the end. (Copyrieht, 1936, by NEA Service, Inc.)

A royal reception is apt to make

foil for her flawless complexion. Heim has a collection of semiformal evening ensembles in this vein, completed by flowing capes lined in a bright color carried out in his attractive peasant embroidery motifs. The new vogue of heavy and barbiric-inspired costume jewelry has a particular appeal for the young. On them it looks amusing and original, whereas on an older woman it is too often apt to look garish. The new crystal or gold clip, buckle and ear clip sets often represent the entire decorative scheme on a simple dress. These are combined with seried rows of small pearls or turquises. Colored stockings exactly matching the color of the dress is another recent vogue which has been taken up by a few of the very young and not so young women. For sports they come in eggplant, bright blue and a certain shade of green, but here again the older and wiser woman thinks twice before adopting this fashion, which is apt to make the more mature figure look slightly frumpish.

Agrees Upon Dress Costs By United Press PALM BEACH, Fla., March 2. Mrs. George Stanley Rasmussen, Chicago, who spends $25,000 a year for clothing, said today that the working girl of America can dress attractively and adequately on a weekly budget of $1.50 —or less. Mrs. Rasmussen’s statement was made while commenting on recent conclusions reached by the New York Association for improving the conditions of the poor. The association listed a wardrobe for the working girl sufficient for “health and decency” at a cost of $1.50 a week. “If the working girl would seek advice of djepensers of community funds in making her clothing purchases, she would be able to select attractive wardrobes within the limit set by the association,” Mrs. Rasmussen said. Favors Concervative Styles “Whereas the association listed 15 pairs of stockings at 70 cents a pair as necessary for a year, I believe, that with proper care, hose at. that price or even cheaper will wear as well or better than more expensive grades,” she said. The society leader pointed out that the clothing should be of conservative design that would not go out of style quickly. , Wearing qualities can be assured in clothing such as outlined under the $1.50 budget, she said. Mrs. Rasmusen, whose welfare work in Chicago has placed her in direct contact with supply necessities for poor families, said she had purchased coats which serve well for several seasons at $6.50 apiece in wholesale lots. “The association allowed the working girls $12.50 for a winter coat each two years and $5 for a spring coat each three years,” Mrs. Rasmussen pointed out.

Situation Difficult, Jane Says

Husband Leaves Family; Wife Delays Action on Divorce. If you're in trouble write to Jane Jordan and read her opinion of your rase in thi* column. Dear Jane Jordan—l am a married woman with two adorable children. My husband and I have be r n married 12 years and were as happy as any couple could be until he met a girl about a year and a half ago with whom he says he is in love.

Our divorce has been pending for some time. We have been separated over a year now and in that time he has come back twice, but never stayed very long. I am working, but don’t make enough to keep a home going fer myself and children and I do not

have any people I can live with. I will give my husband credit for helping me out all he can, but I know he can't go through life married to this other woman and give our children an education and the right start in life. I am willing to work and do all I can for them so that they can have a home like other children, but it won't be quite complete without a father. Tlie way I feel now, I don’t think I ever will marry again, for I was brought up with a stepfather and I know what it is like. Do you think I am doing right by giving up my children's father so that he can marry this other woman when their whole future lies in him? If I did not go through with the divorce, do you think that some day he might come back for the welfare and happiness of his children? A WORRIED MOTHER. Answer—After all you aren't giving up your husband. He is giving you up. I think it very wise of you to wait quite a while before you put the divorce through, for you have no way of telling whether your husband’s affair with the other girl will last. A happy relationship which has endured for 12 years and has been productive of two charming childent does not die overnight. The wife who stands calmly by while her partner struggles with a belated attack of romance many times is rewarded by his complete recovery, particularly when she has not widened the breach between herself and her husband by useless recriminations. To hang on too long after you are sure your husband has left for good, is merely to be a dog-in-the-manger, and it will ruin your own chances to make a normal readjustment. You can not judge all stepfather’s by your own. Many a natural father has been replaced by a stepfather who is his superior. With the knowledge of human nature you have gained from unhappy experience to guide you, it is hardly likely that you would marry an unsl ible or a cruel character. Surely your insight has been sharpened by your disappointments. If your husband wanted to avoid contributing to his children’s support, which he evidently does not, he could do so as successfully now as he could after a divorce. I see your point when you say that he hardly can afford to keep up two homes, yet if you balk his dearest wish too long he may retaliate by withdrawing his funds. The law wlil allow you support for your children and collect it for you. The only way he could escape payment would be to quit work or disappear, either of which he can do without a divorce. You’re in a tough situation, both from an economical and a spiritual viewpoint. Your trouble can make you a strong, responsible character or a sour, embittered woman. Which is it to be?
