NOW GO ON WITH THE STffRY. CHAPTER FOUR IT was Jus" an ordinary February day like a dozen others. Toby s' dn't see anything unusual about it as she hurried to the subway station. There was time enough this morning, but hurrying had become a habit. Besides, the air was cold and damp and it was slushy underfoot. Toby was glad to reach the store. She had a customer almost as soon as the doors were opened. From then on the morning routine was jusc as it had been the day before. Toby lunched in the employes’ cafeteria and wondered why it was that the pea soup tasted exactly like the bean soup the day before and the cream of vegetable soup the day before that. The prune pudding was good, though. She had an extra cup of coffee and talked for five minutes with a girl who had been transferred, two weeks before, from the jewelry department to the fourth floor misses’ wear. Promptly at 1:15 Toby was back at her counter. So far, nothing had happened to set that February day apart from any other. Gladys Sorenson ate lunch at the sandwich shop around the corner and came back to report that it was growing colder outside. “Wouldn't surprise me,” she said, ‘‘if it’s snowing by 5 o’clock.” Toby said, “Ugh! I hope not,” and wished that she owned a pair oi galoshes. Gladys, who had a fondness for discussions of the weather, went on, “Last year, just about this time, we had that terrible snow storm. It lasted for three days. Don’t you remember ?” Glady’s reminiscences were cut short by the approach of a customer, and Toby moved away. Business, oddly enough, was not so brisk during the early afternoon as it had been through the morning. a tt IT was while Toby was showing the new white and jade compacts to a woman wearing a leopard coat that she noticed the young man. Involuntarily, Toby’s eyes raised. Then she lowered them quickly. It was the same young men—no doubt about it. The one she had bumped into on her way to work the day before. He was standing less than a dozen feet away. Toby said, without looking up, “It’s really the nicest compact we have. The medallion is real jade— ’’ The woman in the lepoard coat interrupted. “Yes, it’s very attractive. You said the price is $4.98, didn’t you?” “That's right. Four ninetyeight.” “I'll take It,” the woman announced. She opened her handbag, drawing out a coin purse. Abruptly she stopped. “Oh,” she exclaimed, “I’d forgotten. I meant to cash a check this morning.” She stared at Toby, went on hurriedly. “I haven’t the mony to pay for the compact. Could you have it wrapped and hold it for me? I'll be back within an hour or so.” “Why, certainly,” Toby agreed.

i “I’ll have it ready for you. I'm Miss Ryan. If you don’t see me, just ask one of the other girls—” The woman smiled. “Thank you," she said. “I’ll remember.’' As she moved away she repeated, “I’ll be back within an hour.” u a a TOBY nodded and bent over her sales book. “Miss Ryan?” She hadn’t expected to hear her name, and looked up, startled. The young man—yes, it was the same one. all right; the brown eyes, the gray hat, the tweed topcoat all checked —stood directly before her. “You are Miss Fyan, aren’t you?” he asked. “Why—why, yes.” He smiled, looking very well pleased with himself. “That’s what I thought you said,” he told her. “I heard you talking to that woman”—nodding in the direction in which the woman in the leopard coat had gone. “You know, you rushed away in such a hurry yesterday—” Toby met his eyes. She looked as though she were about to rush away a second time, but instead she said, "You’ll have to go. I can’t stand here talking. We’re not allowed—” “But just a minute—please—” the young man began. “I’m sorry,” Toby said firmly, “it’s against the store rules.” “What Is?” “Talking.” His face showed amazement. “You mean you can’t talk—not ever, not to any one?” u tt it IT did sound ridiculous and Toby couldn’t help smiling. She said, a little more kindly, “Only to customers.” "Oh—then that’s all right. I’m a customer.” “Are you?” she asked. “What is it you want?” The brown eyes twinkled. “That’s a large order,” the young man said, “but I’ll begin. First of all, your full name, address, telephone number—” Toby backed away. “Excuse me,” she said coolly, “I thought you were a customer." “But I am! I mean I want to be. I want —” The young man looked about him. His eyes lighted on a tray of rhinestone clips. “Those,” he finished triumphantly. “I want those.” “You mean those clips?” He nodded. “Clips,” he said. “Is that what they are? Yes, I want them ” “All of them?” "Yes.” "But—there are 20 of them.” "They’re for sale, aren’t they?” “Yes.” "Then I want them.” Toby hesitated only an instant. Above the tray was a sign reading, “Genuine hand-set rhinestone clips, $2.98.” Her pencil on her sales book, Toby said in her most busi-ness-like tone, “Will it be a cash or charge pu/<chase?” “Charge,” the young man told her. “The name is Jamieson—Timothy Jamieson.” n u u SHE wrote it down. “Twenty rhinestone clips at $2.98 each,” she said. “That’s—let’s see—ss9.6o.” Tim Jamieson nodded. “Will you —er—have them sent?” The address he gave was one which even Toby knew was fashionable. She nodded. “The package will be delivered in the morning, Mr. Jamieson. Thank you very much. And I hope you like your clips.” "But, see here—”

"Was there anything else you wanted?” "Yes,” he said, “there’s something I want very much. I want you to have dinner with me tonight. I’ll be waiting for you—any time you say. Or, if you’d rather, I’ll pick you up somewhere—” Toby smiled, but shook her head. “I’m sorry,” she said. “I can’t.” ‘ But it’s perfectly all right. Why shouldn’t you? I’m as harmless as the day is long. Honestly. You’re the prettiest girl I’ve seen in months and I want to know you better. We’ll go anywhere you say—” Toby said again, “I can’t—really.” "Ob, but you’ll change your mind! A girl like you couldn’t be so hardhearted. Now, listen, when the store closes I’ll be waiting for you.” Toby didn’t bother to object to that. A customer had paused at the other end of the counter and she hurried toward her. When she looked back a little later the young man was gone. a u a '"pOBY thought of the $59.60 in -*■ her salesbook. It certainly wasn’t every day that you made sales like that in the costume jewelry. Maybe she’d get a bonus this week. If she did, she could buy the shoes she needed and galoshes. He really was a nice-looking young man. There was something about him that was rather—rather exciting. Oh, well, she’d never see him again. That was the end of that. But the day that had begun in such an ordinary fashion had more in store for Toby Ryan —much more. The oddest thing about it was that it all happened so naturally. It was a few minutes past 3 when Miss Burrows, the jewelry buyer, approached Toby. “The artists have finished with those watches we sent up to have sketched for the Saturday advertisement,” she said. “Will you go up and bring them down? Ask for Mr. Keller. He’ll get them for you.” Toby said, ‘‘Yes, Miss Burrows.” She knew exactly what to do; she had gone on such errands before. Toby stepped into the elevator and said, “Ninth floor.” She liked going to the advertising office. It was so different from the rows and rows of counters on the first floor. Cluttered and rather disorderly, with the artists, in inkspattered smocks, working near the windows and three or four young men and women at desks in the foreground. * Bill Brandt worked in an advertising office, too. Toby felt that knowing what Bergman’s advertising department was like made her understand more clearly when Bill talked about his work. a tt SHE entered the big room, hesitated, and then went up to the nearest desk. "Is Mr. Keller here?” Toby asked. The door of a private office opened just then and a man stepped out. It was Mr. Keller, the art director, and Toby recognized him. She hurried forward. “Miss Burrows sent me for the watches that were sketched,” she said. “Oh, yes.” The art director crossed to a desk, picked up four tiny watches attached to bracelets. Three of them were yellow gold discs. The fourth was the handsome “debutante special,” white gold with tiny diamonds gleaming on either side of the oblong face. “Here they are,” he said, and put them in Toby’s hand. She looked down at the watches. The glistening handful, she knew, was worth something like $250. A minute later Toby stood in the hallway, waiting for the elevator to take her to the first floor.

cause of their miniature handling that resembles polka dots, are considered discreet; The dress market, as Well 'as Fulton Street, abounds with" wild strawberries, apples, cherries, plums and grapes; radishes, carrots, peppers, mushrooms and tiny ears of corn. Flowers, too, shrink to nosegay proportions for daytime wear. Tiny bouquets or bright spots, of single flowers on dark or colored backgrounds are the ones you want to look for, in jacket dresses and blouses, along with the “objects” prints that record bowknots, flower pots, chessmen, keys and the whole alphabet in dot technique. White on dark backgrounds is favored for daytime, while vivid, clear tones and multi-color effects in larger patterns are reserved for afternoon and evening. u tt THERE are pictorial prints that tell a story of Schiaparelli and Jodelle collections. Jodelle chooses a fabric that shows rings of dancing Brittany peasants, and Schiaparelli tiny envelopes with colored seals. “Love Letters”, she names this design. At least four new print techniques account for the originality, versatility and beauty of the new dress fabrics. Water color prints give flowers a delicate Oriental look. Near tones of a single color produce a shaded effect. Line prints, like the navy and white silk crepe suit from Piquet, are the shortest distance to tailored effects. “Laque” prints, on which the design is stamped, have anew lustre, and the stamping may be anything from tiny airplanes to tiny trees or commas. Try combining identical prints in different fabrics for an original costume. The jacket or redingote may be printed taffeta, the dress printed crepe. The sheers, the marquisettes, the chiffons, the satins, too, all subscribe to printed matter this year. You’ll want to study them more closely for your spring and summer wardrobe.

Dear Jane Jordan —What I can t understand is that any number of married men ask me to go out with them, even though I always refuse. Although I meet many single men
who come into the , office especially to ] see me, they never i ask me to go out with them. Why does a girl have to make herself cheap in order to gc any' place or have any fun? Oh yes, she is making herself cheap if she goes with another girl to a beer garden to pick up boys. I

can not bring myself to do that because I have heard fellows talk about pick-ups. I am 23, not pretty, but neat and attractive. What is wrong? PUZZLED. Answer —Many girls complain that whereas they can succeed in attracting married men, they are overlooked by the single. I had an opportunity to observe one of these girls over a period of months. It was obvious to an objective onlooker that there was a decided difference in her manner toward married and single men. Since she did not regard married men as prospective husbands, she was not self-con-scious in their presence. At her ease, she was warm, gracious and friendly and exchanged merry quips with the gentlemen. When they responded by trying to make love to her, she was surprised, pained, and could not see what she had done to give them such a wrong opinion of herself. With single men this same girl wrapped herself in a disdainful dignity. In reality it u r as shyness, born of a lack of self-esteem. Eligible men admired her from a distance, but few tried to break through her cool, constrained manner. Invariably they spoke of her as naughty and aloof. The few who stirred up sufficient courage to ask her for a date actually were rebuffed. There always was a perfectly legitimate reason why she could not go along at the moment—illness in the family or unavoidable work to do. She accepted these obstacles and made no effort to suit her time to the convenience of the prospective suitor. ‘lf he is interested enough, he will try again,” said she. and when he did not she fell back on her injured iignity. Understand that this young lady was perfectly unconscious of her own behavior. She honestly believed that she wanted friends of the other sex, and felt deprived without them. She was not aware of the inner conflicts which gave rise to an attitude which pushed men away. It was a long time before she would admit that she had only herself to thank for the fact that she attracted married men exclusively. After serious reflection, does this shoe fit your foot? it it it Dear Jane Jordan—l am a boy of 19. I met a girl some time ago
