A SWEETHEART AT THIRTY The Story, of a. Woman' Transformation ' BY MARION. RUBINCAM

Chapter 75. ' MY CALLER. That night of the dance in the hotel, Francis Meade had said to me, bending down a little as we had danced together: "Do you still live in that charming apartment down town?" And I nodded and smiled at him, while it seemed to me, we floated along on the rythmic waves of the music. "How nice of you to remember it," I answered. And was surprised to find this smooth phrase come so easy to my lips. "Of course I remember it!" he told me. "It stands xout in my mind as one of the most peaceful homes I have ever been in." "Then perhaps you will come to see me again some day," I answered, thinking how much I wanted to say this months beore, wben he sat in our big chair and smoked, with his long legs thrust out over the rug. But I blushed at my daring tonight. Who was I, after all, to invite so busy and important man to our tiny, uninteresting home? "I will come some day, if I may," he said. And when we wished him good-night, he repeated that remark. Yet a week later when Helen brought me up a telephone message asking whether I would be at home that evening to Mr. Meade, I was too surprised to comprehend immediately. Vi laughed, hor blue eyes beginning to dance -with mischief, and and her-

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: We are three girl friends and there are a few things we are in doubt about. (1) I, the brunette have a very good boy friend of whom I think quite a lot. He tries to make me believe that he thinks more of me than any other girl. I have been going with him for over two years and on several occasions we have had "fusses." I tried every way to break with him, but my efforts have been in vain. The bov of whom I speak is away at school and he goes with girls in that town. It makes me a bit jealous. He has told me thoough, that if I wanted him to, he would stop going with them. Do you think he really cares for me? Should I ask him to stop going with these girls? (2.I, the blonde, am IS years old and have been going with a boy five years my senior for seven months. I like him real well, and he seems to care a great deal for me. I do not know anything about his people, but he seems to be a very fine boy. He came as a stranger to my home town, and has associated with the best people here. If he should propose to me what should I tell him? 3) I, the semi-blonde, am 22 years old and have a very good boy friend whom I have been going with for three years at different times and for the past year regularly. He has told me that he loves me more than any other girl and has proposed to me. but . I have never told him that I cared for him kt all. I hav.? also told him not to care for me more than as a friend. He does not pay any attention to what I say. .1 do like him, but don't think 1 care enough for him to marry him. The reason is that I have another good friend who shows me every itention and he has stopped going with several girls since he has gone with me. These two boys seem to be very jealous of each other, and the first one has tried his best to stop me from going with the other, but the latter does not object to my going with the other one. He has not proposed to me but speaks quite often of

saving money for one bungalow. I don't take all he says seriously, but I think he likes me. If you were in my place, would you break up entirely with the first, or would you wait and ,try to keep his friendship until I decide which I care the most for? JUST THREE PALS. (1) It is only right that your friend should go with girls while he is away at school. Try to be glad that he is having a good time and by no means ask him td give up the girls there. He seems to care more for you than the rest (2) If he should propose to you, tell him that you cannot possibly give him an answer for two or three years. You are too young to become engaged. The fact that his parents are strangers to you is not an obstacle, if he proves himself a- gentleman. (3 Wait, and keep both boys as friends, until you decide definitely that you lovo one.

self went to the phone to say that I would be delighted io see Mr. Meade. "Aunt Enid has a 'gentleman friend' as they say in Henly Falls." she teased. "Auntie dear. Bud can't come around tonight, so Toby and I are going to- a movie, and I shan't be home until nearly 11, so you and Mr. Meade can have a lovely visit. And be sure to wear that drapey black satin you look awully young and pretty in it." I did wear he youthful frock, and I took the greatest care with my dressing. As I dusted a little powder over my face, I was almost satisfied with myself. How many miles end how many years I seemed away from Henly Falls! My heart thumped excitedly as I heard a ring downstairs. "Be quiet!" I kept repeating to myself. "Remember, you are no school girl! You are only a little old maid masquerading for a few months as a youngish sort of woman." How is it possible to convy through words the strange, strong, winning personality of Francis Meade! I do not remember very well anything he said.

I suppose our talk was about what any conversation might be on a first visit. And yet it was not. I remember I asked him about some of the countries he had traveled in. - "The old world was Romance to me," he said. "I was determined not only to see it, but to live in it, to absorb it. So with another boy we were both 19 I shipped on a cattle boat, and we landed in England with only our wages from the trip little enough. "We had sent over our bicycles, though, and on these we rode through Europe. When we had money we traveled; when we ran out of it, we worked. We camped a lot during the

summer, and hunted cheap places in !

the winter, or went south Italy and Spain." "How long?" "We spent three years altogether," he said. We saw a lot, we did get the spirit of the different countries. We learned oh, everything, it seemed to us. My poor mothor spent a miser

able time, though. She was sure we were being starved, or killed." "And then?" I asked, gently trying to lead him on. "And then? Oh, the other lad was so in love with the Italian pictures of the Renaissance period that he decided to be an artist. And I was quite determined to come home and make enough money to bring my mother over, and travel in style." "And did you?" I wanted to know. "Yes, eventually. But I don't think it was so much fun. and I know that I could not get so close to our European cousins living at the Ritz and giving them tips for service, as I did stopping off at their cottage doors, and buying milk and playing with their children." "He tried it a year, but it got him nothing but the habit of wearing his hair long and the trick of discussing color values and chiarosucuro. And that got him an excellent position as art director of a movie firm." He looked over to me, his eyes alight with laughter. And I laughed too, for no one could remain sober when he laughed like that. But secretly I was worried. How much I had to learn! What was the long word chiaroscuro? It was an art term, apparently well. I would ask Toby about it. And the

Test Renaissance? What did that

mean? Vi might know really my mind was all black ignorance. I must do some reading. It was all right to make or to keep the body young it mieht be quite as important to make the mind so. But only a few months left to do it in! Our world ended in February when our money ran out. Something must be done to prolong stay, if only till spring. I would write Jim about it. "Tell me about that nice Miss Miller," I asked, wondering how I dared ask it. "Ah, a charming woman, an unusually charming woman!" he began. I felt a little pan? of envy. Tomorrow More Suspicions.

Ed Lewis, Mrs. Lewis and their baby daughter. He's known as "The Strangler" in the wrestling game, is Ed Lewis, now world's heavyweight mat king, because of his famous strangle hold and terrific head crushing hold. But to Mrs. Lewis, in the pretty Lewis bungalow at the foot of the hills on the edge of San Jose, Cal., he's known only as "Ed." And when Baby Lewis, their infant daughter, is a bit older he'll be "papa," too. Mrs. Lewis was Dr. Ada Scott Morton, a physician, before her marriage to the wrestler. "You'd never think Ed was a terrible sort of person if you could see him at home." says Mrs. Lewis.

Lore of Saxophones Hits Army Musicians WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 The lure of the saxophone has hit army musicians hard. Reports from Leader Weber, chief of the band recruit school at Columbus barracks (Ohio) to the war department say he is overwhelmed with requests for instruction in producing wailing "jazz" melodies on this instrument. Leader Weber was enthusiastic about the progress of his one hundred recruit horn blowers, but the department said other inhabitants of the reservation took a different view. The bandsmen have been lodged in a bomb-proof building, "where all manner of strident harmonies can be practiced in safety."

TLIMINATE petroleum from the world and modern industry would come to a dead stop. Lacking that tiny film of mineral oil, continuously applied, and the machinery of the world would groan to a stand-still. From air compressors to textile spindles, from sewing machines to power house engines, all the machinery of modern life, the machinery which clothes and feeds, and transports mankind, is dependent upon petroleum. Animal fats and vegetable oils sufficed for lubrication in the era which preceded the industrial age, but only petroleum could supply lubricants in sufficient quantities to keep pace with the development of modern machinery. In the development of our modern system of lubricating machinery, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has performed an essential service in producing a vast number of h'ghest grade lubricating oils and greases from petroleum. Another vital service of the Company is the maintenance of a distribution system which delivers its lubricants wherever, ana whenever, the need occurs. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) manufactures lubricating oils and greases varying in type and consistency to meet the requirements of the innumerable machines which our commercial age requires. Only a highly specialized and intensively developed organization could give to the people of the Middle West the service rendered by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). The customer who buys a pound of grease, a quart of oil, or a gallon of gasoline, is getting the result of the best effort of 23,000 loyal, efficient, highly trained men and women who make up the personnel of this organization.
