Mrs. Moeller,” she said. “I suppose Id better call | right away—” She went to the telephone and 1 dialed a number, aware that though the rooming house keeper had stepped out of sight, the door of her 1 room remained open. Mrs. Moeller, ever curious about telephone calls,: vas showing increasing interest in Toby’s. Privately. Mrs. Moeller admitted that a job like Toby’s—- ‘ posing to have her picture took"— might be all right. Just the same— It was Harriet Holm's voice that! came over the wire. “Hello,” she! said. "Is that you, Toby?” “Yes. i Just came in and got your me . age I hope I'm not bothering you. calling so late—” ‘'Not at all! Say, Toby, there’s going to be a fashion show tomorrow—a benefit of some kind at the Ritzmartz Hotel. I'm going to model and I told Sally to put you | down for the same assignment.” i ‘‘But, H " i, '\ I’ve never done anything like • at. W 1 y, I wouldn’t know the first thing a >out it!” "I knew you’d say that. That’s why I called. But this kind of modeling is lots easier tnan standing j before a camera. There’s nothing 10 it—and if there is anything that bothers you. you oan ask me. I thought it would be fun working together.” u it a “IT would be! And it’s awfully l nice of you to offer to help me, Harriet, but still I don’t know—” “Listen, don’t, you suppose all the other girls were beginners once? I want you to call the office the first, thing in the morning and see that Sally’s got you on the list. There’ll be about eight other models, I suppose. There usually are that many.” “Well, if you're sure I can do it—” “I wouldn’t have said a thing about it if I wasn’t sure. Os course you can. Listen, why don’t you stop here for me? It won’t be out of your way and we can go on together. I’ll tell you exactly what you’re supposed to do—” At 1 o'clock the next afternoon the two girls were walking down a corridor ot the Ritzmartz hotel. Ahead from an open door came a buzz of feminine voices, high- j pitched and all, apparently, talking, at the same time. Harriet nodded. “This's the place all right. It’s usually like a mad house for the first hour or so—until everybody gets the clothes they’re to wear and finds out when they’re to appear and all that. But

don’t, let it bither you—’’ Toby didn’t answer. They had reached the open doorway and for an instant she stood there. The room, a large one, seemed to be in complete disorder. Furniture had been pushed cut of the way. Racks from which br.'ght-colored costumes hung, obscured one wall. On a large table in the center of the room hats, gloves, furs, shoes and handbags lay in confusion. Tissue paper wrappings and cardboard boxes had fallen to the floor. n n n TTALF a dozen girls—all young, slender, attractive were grouped about the table or before the racks of dresses. In the center, her voice raised in a crisp authority, was a small, dark woman in a tailored suit. “That’s Miss Landers,” Harriet whispered to Toby. “She’s the stylist who’s running the show.” Miss Landers turned and took in the two in the doorway. “Are you girls models?” she asked. “Yes,” Harriet said, coming forward. "I'm Harriet Holm and this is Toby Ryan.” The older woman consulted a memorandum and nodded. “Then every one’s here,” she said. “I’ll show you the things you're to wear in a few minutes. Let's see—” she iurned and went on speaking to the girl beside her. A door into an adjoining room swung open and a girl appeared. She was tall, and height accented her slimness, as did the lines of her black and white dress. She wasn’t a pretty girl, exactly, though she certainly was unusual looking. There was a hint of petulance about the crimson lips and an odd upward swing to the dark eyebrows. Her hair .arranged in an elaborate and extreme manner, looked almost black. Harriet had turned away and was talking to some girls who evidently were old friends. The newcomer came into the room, halted a few

i steps from Toby and eyed her, unsmilingly. nun you?” she asked abj njptly. “I'm Toby Ryan,” Toby told her. “I’m going to model in the show this afternoon.” “Oh, are you?” It was a question, yet the tone implied no interest at all in an answer. The dark-haired girl continued to stare at Toby a moment longer. Then she said, in a drawling voice, “Seems to me I’ve seen you somewhere.” “I—l don't think it’s very likely.” “No?” Again the studied scrutiny. Toby felt her cheeks flushing uncomfortably. She would have moved away, but the other girl’s voice went on. “Could it have been in Miami? Were you there in February? “No,” Toby said. “I wasn’t In Miami.” “Then, perhaps, it was last fall at Aiken, or on the boat crossing from Cherbourge?” Toby shook her head. “I haven't been in any of those places.” “Really? How quaint!” Suddenly the girl laughed. “I haye it!” she said. “You look exactly like a maid I used to have. She wasn’t a very good maid; I had to discharge her. Something about stealing some spoons—” '“T'HERE was no opportunity for a X reply. With a shrug of her shoulders, the dark-haired girl was gone. Toby stood motionless, held by the stinging • words. The girl had been deliberately insulting. It was in her manner and tone as well as in the words themselves. And there wasn’t any excuse for it— Harriet came up beside Toby. She said something, but the other did not seem to hear. Harriet repeated, “Come on, Toby. Miss Lauders is ready for us.” She put a hand on the other girl’s arm. Toby nodded, but instead of answering she asked, “Harriet, who is that girl over by the windows?” Harriet looked across the room. “You mean the one in the black and white dress?” she asked. Toby said “Yes.” It was the girl she had been talking to. Harriet lowered her voice. “That.” she said, “is about as nice a. dish of poison as you’d be able to find in a day’s search. Carol Marsh is her name. One of the Park Avenue darlings who think it’s too, too thrilling to have a careeah, my deah! So they use the family pull and get jobs that other girls really need. And the other girls go hungry. The blond beside her is her pal, Betty Turnbull. They’re two of a kind—only Carol’s worse. If you’re lucky, you won’t have to work with them very often. If you do—well, stay out of Carol’s way.” nan TOBY looked at the girl by the window. “I’ll stay out of her way,” she said, “if she stays out of mine. If she doesn’t, she’d better watch out ” Toby wouldn't have echoed Harriets statement that there was “nothing to” modeling in a fashion show. She thought there was a good deal to it. But working in the studios had accustomed her to being stared at, and she had learned to forget herself and think of the ostume she was displaying. She had some lovely things to wear—bright colored sport things, mostly, because she was small, and an evening dress that was a dream —crisp, bouffant net shading from deep rose at the hem to misty pink over the shoulders. The charity fashion show was being held in the hotel ballroom. Small tables had been set up for tea and the models were to parade slowly among the tables, pausing when any one showed interest to tell tb'j name of the designer of the costume and the price. Toby had expected to be frightened when she first entered the room. She found she wasn't. Carefully she watched the girl ahead of her. When the other girl was half way across the room, Toby followed. The orchestra was' playing a popular tune and she matched her step to the music. nun She was wearing a black taffeta suit with a short jacket, supposed to be the sub-deb's Easter costume. There was a huge black and green checked bow under Toby's chin and she wore a green hat, slanting provocatively over one eye. “This is an original Claudettf model,” she said to a woman w! and looked up inquiringly. “The price is $lB5. The hat is from Charles-Ray-mond—s49.so.” She said it over and over until it almost became a chant. “This is an original Claudette model—” Women glanced up from their tea and eyed the taffeta suit critically. And some asked about sizes and if the suit could be had in different colors. Slowly Toby circled the room. Her own amazement at suits that sold for $lB5 and the women who bought them had ended long ago. She reached the final table, paused to repeat the familiar words and turned toward the door. A sound behind halted her. It must have been a sixth sense that warned her. for, even before she turned, Toby was sure whom she was to face. She looked up into Jim Jamieson’s eyes. “Hello,” he said, smiling. “Third time’s charm, you know.” (To Be Continued)

Ideals Are Too Vivid, Jane Says Girl Advised to Take Realistic Attitude Toward Love. Write to Jane Jordan for a better understanding of yoor problems! She will answer your letters in this column. Dear Jane Jordan —Can you tell me what my trouble is? I can* understand myself. When I meet a fellow and he starts coming around often I lose interest in him. When he quits coming because of

my indifferent attitude, I think I like him. Then someone else comes along and gives me the rush and the same steps are followed. Am I fickle, or what is it? Someti me s it will be some minor thing which gets on my nerves and makes me tire of them.

'I Ktaw* Jp

Jane Jordan

Sometimes it’s the way a fellow moves his eyebrows and smiles that makes me get fed up with him. There was another boy who was very nice, when I think of him now, but he had a habit of scratching his leg all the time, w'hich made me feel embarrassed for him. Now when I see him I think how silly that was, for he only scratched his leg when he wore a certain wool suit. When I go on dates I won’t kiss the fellow's, although I wouldn't mind at all except that I’ve been taught to look on kissing as common. When I do break down and kiss a boy after going with him for quite a while, I hate myself for doing it. Can you explain this? Am I too particular? When I go to a dance and see people looking at me I get to the rest room as soon as I can to see if there is something hanging. Do I have an inferiority complex? I don’t drink or smoke. Sometimes I'm glad I don’t, sometimes I feel out of place. Do I have a double nature or something? A READER. Answer — Your letter paints a picture of a girl in flight from a problem. There are three major adjustments in life: Work, love and social co-operation. I suspect you of trying to run aw'ay from the love problem. The fact that you hate yourself for kissing a boy whom you know' well indicates that you have had a puritanical upbringing which has caused you to view the relationship of the sexes with fear and aversion. When a boy attracts you, you are afraid to trust your own nature too far and protect yourself by picking flaws in the boy to make him seem undesirable. Then, too, it may be you have erected an impossible ideal in your mind, composed of early impressions of your father, plus the glamor of the heroes of cinema and sentimental fiction. The small crudities of the average male place him so far below the lover of your dreams that he can not be tolerated. You can find out whether this is true or not by observing the creature your fancy has created. No one is free from day dreams which fulfill wishes not realized in fact. Every woman has a dim ideal of the sort of man she hopes to meet and love. Perhaps yours is more vivid than the average, and therefore more impossible to find in reality. At any rate, I think you have tw-o attitudes toward the love problem. You both w'ant and do not w'arit t,o settle it. This conflict causes you continuously to attach and unattach yourself in your various friendships. A better emotional education, a more realistic attitude toward love, will help you. Try reading books of fact on love instead of highly colored tales of wish fulfillment. POST AUXILIARY TO HOLD DANCE A novelty dance is to be sponsored by the Ladies Auxiliary, Frank T.

■y/'OU have heard that there are two extreme silhouettes in coats this spring—the very full back, o” Ihe ruthlessly slim. What you may not know ’til now is that both types may >e considered by ruthlessly slim budgets for the simple reason that both are part of print dress ensembles. These coats are unlined, so they will not replace an early spring coat, but if you have that already and are looking for an ensemble to wear on balmier days ahead this type of ensembling holds interesting color schemes and real economy for debutante figures. An unlined black wool coat buttoned down the front so that it may also be worn as a coatdress is ensembled -with a black taffeta dress, and dotted in green and white, and trimmed with white pique.
