THE UNROMANTIC MR. DALE

By HAYDEN T. PRICE 1 (. 1S20. by McCluYe Newspaper Syndicate.) Marjorle Kog-rs had looked forward ever since February to Dale's visit at Eastertime. Dale was lier brother's roommate at college. Brother Harry had "raved" about the errat Dale In letters and on his visits home. He was one of the "big" men of the class, Harry claimed.' And Marjorie's married sister, Alice, had met Dale on the occasion of her visit as chap eron at the Junior Hop In February. Alice, like brother Harry, returned to praise the charm and clever, spark ling personality of Dale. Marjorle, Just turning eighteen, had heard so much about Dale that her girlish Imagination had seized upon him as a subject for day-dreams. And when. In March, , Harry had sent a copy of his Class Annual, the llrst thing Marjorle did was to look up Dale's pictfire among the seniors. A humorous descriptive sketch accompanied each senior's picture, and the sketch describing Dale pictured him ns a young man too serious in his work to recognize the existence of the fair sex. It was not tunt Dale was 'unimaginative or a woman-hater. It was almost worse than that, thought Marjorle, for a woman-hater at least recognizes the existence of women and romance, but the serious Mr. Dale was so busy that he was Indifferent, chillingly indifferent, to girls, moonlight on lakes, porch swings for two on summer nights, and all other trappings and accessories of romance. Marjorie's heart sank a little as she read this disquieting description of Dale. What chances would she have with such a man, even though h was going to spend a week at her home as her brother's guest a week In the spring of the year? That afternoon Brother Harry and Dale were to arrive for the Faster vacation. Marjorle lived In a state of suppressed excitement all day and felt that 5 o'clock would never come. At 4 the telephone rang and Marjorle answered. Her eighteen-year-old heart nearly stopped when a voice, announced as the property of Jerry Dale, conveyed the news that the bo&s had missed a train connection and wouldn't be home untl 7. "I wonder if he heard my heart beating," said Marjorie to herself as she hung up. This delay in the arrival of the young men hardly made her more patient. As a relief from her restlessness Marjorle went to the station to meet their train. Vhen the train pulled in her heart was beating as only a girl's heart can beat under the urge of a star worship. What would he look like? Would he, think her attractive? She was vaguely subcon scious of the fact that other young men thought her attractive, hut of what use was that if the great Dale didn't think so? -There's Madge !" cried her brother, as the truin came to a stop. In a moment she was, being bear-hugged by Harry. "Why, what's the matter with your voice, Harry?" "Nothing much just n cold, but I can't speak above a whisper. That's why Jerry had to do the telephoning when We missed our train." Then came the big moment, "Madge, this is Mr. Dale Jerry Dale." Madge on the way home re-llved that moment when her hand rested in his. She- liked to recall that there was nothing perfunctory in his handclasp. He had seemed to hold her hand rather tightly. But probably, she thought. she was mistaken. Probably the wish was father to the thought with her. She drove the car back from the station and between her busy thoughts and .her eagerness to catch Dale's voice her driving would have caused worrv to the founders of the Safety First movement. They drew up before the house and Marjorie's little heaven was nearly compete when Jerry Dale helped her from the car. She began to wonder If Mr. Dale had changed suddenly since his class mates had described him as being "too serious for romance." But her happiness was short-lived. On account of their late arrival, and because of his inability to be heard over the telephone. Harry her own brother' asked her to call up Ethel Marbrldge and tell that young lady that he and Mr. Dale would be over to call on her that evening. Now it so happened that of all the young ladies in the little town Ethel Marbridge found least favor in Mar jorie's eyes. But how could r. brother remember a detail like that? And how could her brother know that Dale meant so much In her life and thou glits? So she bit her lip and went to the telephone. She was sure she hated her brother In that moment. Marjorie called up Miss Marbridge and as casually as possible delivered the message. In her heart she felt e. m . a . . fi-fnin t I'll nr nmi rnncnr n iirtu malicious laugh of triumph In Ethel Marbridge's voice, and felt certain that Ethel was enjoying her discomfiture. The day was spoiled for Marjorie ?ven the Easter week was a dismal failure. She began to blame herself. After all It was rather presumptuous to have hoped that she might mean anything to Mr. Dale. She remembered with chagrin her Ziuous exaltation of sulrits when she

thought Dale had held her hand at the station with something of significance In his clasp. Tears came Into her eyes at the thought. That evening Dale- and her brother called on Ethel Marbridge and It was

10 o'clock the next morning when Mar jorie saw them again. "Madge," said Brother Harry In a husky whisper, "you'll have to act as our social secretary. My throat won't permit me to do any telephoning, so I'll 'have to ask you again to call up Ethel Marbridge and tell her we'll be over about 2 o'clock this afternoon." Dale was sitting In the room, smok ing and reading the morning paper. For a noment Marjorie tried to con tain herself. She was vaguely con scious of wr.nting to avoid showing what a little temper she had when aroused. But restraint went flying at this second instance of brotherly blind ness. "I'll not do anything of the sort. Harry. I'm sorry, but well, I don't like Ethel Marbridge and I'll not telephone to her." She forgot for an an gered Instant Dale's presence In the room and went on: ""I won't give that girl a chance to laugh at me. I'm sure she knows how I've been looking forward to Mr. Dale's " Her sentence went unfinished. With a quick glance at Dale and a little cry of confusion she rushed from the room In tears. "Well, I'll be hanged," remarked Brother Harry, stunned. "I never saw her act like that before. I always thought she was a blushing violet. Al ice," he said to his older sister, who had just entered, "what's the matter with Madge? I just asked her to phone to Ethel Marbridge, and she llatly refused. Flew Into a rage and said something, to the accompaniment of Hashing eyes, about having looked forward to Jerry's visit. Can It bo that . By fleorge, I'll bet that's ltP "Of course that's It," said the shrewd and observant Alice. "Only a blind and stupid brother would have failed to notice it. Why, she's been mooning over Mr. Dale's picture ever since the annual came." "Excuse me, please," said Jerry, ris ing, "I have to go up to my room for something." But Dale did cot reach his room. On the way to his room he had to pass a little alcove on the second floor, and from that, alcove he heard sounds of crying. He knew it was Marjorie. He hesitated a moment and then went in. "Don't cry, please, Marjorie," said Jerry. He felt a great desire to com fort her. However, Jerry had had very little experience with girl psy chology, so his resolution went to bits when at his first words of attempted comfort Marjorie turned on him, eyes blading,, and all humiliated at the remembrance of her half-uttered confession of what Dale meant to her. "Please leave me. I'm crying about something else," said Marjorle in a denial that was the best confession. "I don't care what you're crying about," said Jerry. ' "Don't cry at nil. I I don't like to see you cry." "I guess I can cry if I want to. Please let me pass. I want to telephone to Miss Marbridge." To the uninitiated Jerry this exhibition of perverse feminine psychology was a puzzler. Hadn't her protests to Iirother Harry meant anything? Why had she refused to telephone in the first place? Girls were funny and variable, thought Jerry Dale. Marjorie brushed past him and started for the telephone at the other end of the hall. . She had given the number when Jerry, still remonstrating, reached her side. His pleadings were of no avail. Marjorie was bent on telephoning, cost what It would to her heart. She was sure she hated Dale as much as sfie hated lier brother and the world in general that fine April morning. What right had Dale to overhear her impulsive revelation of his significance in her thoughts! "Hello! Is this Ethel Marbridge?" asked Marjorie in her sweetest voice. This is Marjorie Brown." She was on the point of delivering her brothers message when a strong hand was placed over her lips and another took the receiver away from her ear. She was held in Jerry's arm away from the telephone. "Hello." said Jerry Into the trans mitter. "This is Mr. Dale.- We asked Marjorie to call your number for us. Harry can't whisper over the 'phone so he wants me to tell you that we can't come over this afternoon. Sorry. There were a few perfunctory re marks and Jerry hung up. "Now, Mar jorie, do you understand why I'm not going over to Miss Marbridge's this afternoon? Because I'd rather spend the afternoon wllh you. Madge, look!" He took from his pocket a little photograph of Madge. "I've carried this in my pocket for months. Harry missed It from his dresser, but he never guessed that his roommate had appropriated the picture of his pretty sister. We can tell him now. And we can tell him that I I like you very much, Madge!" Marjorle was having a hard tlm making her lips stop their trembling .happy, tearful trembling. Was It real ly true? It must !?e, for she was look ing Into Jerry's glistening eyes. "Let's go into the alcove," said Mar jede, jealous of these happy moments. And In the alcove they came to a very happy understanding. When finally they came out. In response to Harry's repeated calls for Jerry, Madge, after a mad. glad embrace, said: "And you can tell that thoughtless, blind, brutal brother o mine that I I like you very much, Mr. Jerry Dale.

A journey to Peking and nn audience with the royal household resulted In the appropriation of large sums of money for developing this fairyland of the gods. A brass pagoda was prepared for the first temple. It was decorated with 1,000 little Buddhas and was called Thousand God uagoda. The temple, whoso halls It decked, was christened the Purple Sand temple and Is now restored and called the Merciful Light hall. At that time, says the North China Herald, hundreds of priests came to the mountains, and there was a period of Buddhist prosperity. Roads were built to the tops of all the Important peaks, and at least one temple was erected far above tho line of perennial springs. Ä Solo Part.

I have often wondered, remarks Mr. W. C. Scnlly In the Atlantic Monthly, why more baboons are not trained as shepherds. The creatures Invariably develop an absorbing affection for any young animals, human or other, that are placed In their charge, and thero Is a well-authenticated Instance of a baboon taking charge of a motherless Kafir Infant, and guarding It night and day for more than two years. The simian foster pr.rcnt performed cvery necessary function except feeding the child. Several baboons have been tralped as shepherds. In a case that Mr. Scully himself obs r.rd the baboon had charge of several hundred sheep. He became passionately attached to tho members of the flock, and remained with them all day long at pasture and brought them back to the corral In the evening. His only fault as shepherd was the outcome of extreme solicitude; If he heard the voices of wild baboons In the distance at any tlmo of the day, he would at once collect the sheep, and with every appearance of the liveliest terror hurry them home.
