THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, FRIDAY. OCT. 3, 1919.

Today that woman guest at the NVyeth'B called on me with her odious son. The boy Is only eighteen, yet has the air of a man of thirty-five, txperienced and bored. He takes it for granted that I want him to make love to me. His mother seems amused at my efforts to avoid him. "Don't take dear Gerald seriously,"

she drawled as I came back irom a

trip to the kitchen lor tea ana coomes, i the foolish youth at my heels. "Ho Is due to have several more attacks of puppy lovo before he really grows up."

window and gazed out at tne snow flurries with a nobody-understands-me Rlr, quite unintentionally comic. They are strange types to me. But they come from New York, which I long to know more of. It is odd that while I have been to Canada and sailed from there to England, where I spent those happy weeks six years ago, New York is a sealed book to me a city of dreams. "Tell me about New York, I urged Mrs. Hast as we sipped our tea. "Well, the main difference between New York and Centervllle, my dear, is that New York adapts itself to you

while in Centerville you must conform or be damned. Damned is only an abbreviation for 'condemned,' so

don't be shocked. New York gives you anything you want it to. Centerville gives you only one thing; take

It or leave It.

"You ought to get acquainted with

New York," Bhe rattled on. "It would teach you a lot. Independence, for

one thing. You can be yourself in

t New York. You can't in Centervllle

that Is, if you've got brains or personality. I like you, my dear, or I wouldn't be so frank. "Most of the women in Centerville are mere reflecti'ons of their husbands. They value themselves only as their lords and masters value them. They're like horses; they don't realize how powerful and necessary an aid they are to mankind. If they did they'd never be so submissive. They'd kick over the traces and bust things when there was too much whip laid on." "But isn't life very very frivolous and artificial in New York?" I hazarded. "Tommyrot!" exploded Mrs. Hast "New York's as manyslded as a diamond. There's my 6lde, which is clubs and musicals and suffrage and chnritles and opera. "There's Gerald'B side, an imitation of Kehemla which he thinks Is real purple etudlos on Washington Square, verse libre, cubist paintings r.ncl absinthe cocktails. "There's my niece's side working in a law office all day and studying at night. But ehe's pilink up a bank

balance, all right, and some day she'll be a famous lawyer. "The there'B my daughter's side. Oh, yes, I've a married daughter, who manages to keep a sweet little flat on Morningside Heights with a husband and a couple of healthy babies, and earn money on the outside writing about 'em." She told me a lot more, too. So

much that I could think of nothing

but New York after she left.

Then Jim came home and I told him

about the Hasts calling and all Mrs.

Hast had said about New York.

He let me talk and talk and gush

and gush, and when I looked to see

why he said nothing In reply he was smiling at me in the most whimsical way.

"Good; you're getting points, he

said, catching me around the waist

and lifting me high in his arms as

he would a three-year-old child, be

cause we may be going there.' He watched my face to Bee how I'd take it. I longed to shriek with Joy. But I felt Charles Belton was mixed up with the plan somehow. (To be continued)
