Well, the answer is, I . . SYNOPSIS Ian Gray, First Secretary to the American Minister to Austria and his friend, Leonard Holt, are sit ting with a group of ofheers on the terrace of the famous Hotel Duna Palota, when . the conversation turns to the fascinating Countess Lolita von Waldeck. Several broken hearts are attributed to Lolita and d'Armonot, one of the officers, claims a fatal duel was fought on her account. Leonard cannot stand the insinuations and comes to Lolita's defense. Ian .wonders at his friend's interest for ' Leonard is engaged to Ilya Zichonyi, charming daughter of a Hungarian minister. That night, Leonard borrows $1000 from Ian who wonders what his friend wants with such a large sum. Arriving .early for dinner at the Austrian Ministry, ian waits in the conservatory. CHAPTER III The tall young diplomatist's reverie was broken by the sound of a light footstep. Someone else had been attracted by -tlie efl'ulgent Spring moonlight that beat timidly through the conservatory's glass roof. Thankfully, ho realized the intruder had chosen a different path lhan that he had selected. Good, he could loaf another few minutes. Terrible bore; these formal dinners! Subconsciously he realized those footsteps were doing queer things. Light al quick, they had entered the friendly gloom, and now they were moving slowly and heavily and finally they slewed to an uncertain, stumbling cadence. His curiosity piqued, he raised his head to discover that he could glimpse the motion of a woman's eviiing gown beyond the palm fronds' before him. Quito without warning, there suddenly appeared hi the moonlight the small, proudly held head and the delicate shoulders of ane of the loveliest girls thtf. Ian, well-schocled in charms as he was, had ever beheld. She halted with her face in profile to gaze up fixedly at t!i(' moon, quite unconsciously revealing every detail of her features. Hers was a nose that was just short enough to be piquant and intriguing, without being snub; below it was a short upper lip that bespoke the senses and a small, iiitnlyrounded chin which struck the silont watcher as altogether delicate and delicious. Abuve the cameolike features a sleek aureole of ash hued hair caught the ufouiibeams and entangled them therein. Feasting his eyes on that exquisite moonlit loveliness, lan remained silent as, for a long moment, the girl remained motionless as any statue. On more careful observation he noted that the girl's barely perceptible cheek bones were higher than usual, giving to her face a faintly foreign cast that was infinitely intriguing. Fearful of startling this lunarillumined apparition, lan remained quite still, studying with a connoisseur's appreciation, the fragile beauty of her who. though less than thirty feet away, was undoubtedly quite unconscious of his presence. Suddenly lie noticed the glimmer of something on her cheek and with a sharp pang of alarm realized that something was sliding over her cheek like a fugitive drop of quicksilver. Another appeared and then another. Ian felt a sense of outrage it was so incredible that such a moon-silvered goddess should weep. There was something quite ghastly about the way she stood there weeping silently, and he fought down an absurd impulse to spring up and make an offer to solve her troubles. With a quick, deft motion like that of a fish darting just below the surface of the sea, the girl suddenlv dropped her small patrician head and two slender and long fin gered hands appeared, clutching an evening bag set with rhinestones. She had just opened its jeweled . clasp, when from the depths of the , great house sounded- a man s voice, i calling in low tones! t "Lolita, Lolita, v-o sind sie?" ' ' Ian. now wide eyed and thorough ly alert, did not miss the convulsive ! stiffening of that slender body, nor . the way the aoftly-curving nether 4 lip was tucked into her mouth, even '. less did he miss the indescribable

lrved on that side 'away back when many wives, my own included, had model husbands. A model, you know, is a small imitation of the real thing. . . '. All citizens of Sullivan county should be justly proud of. the new American Legion Home. . .- , Some old things I do not wish to return: stone bruises on my heels and toe itch on my toes, flies swarming all Over the food, stiff wet boots that burned your feet like a hot coal, and the old hog pen that would stink a dog off a gut wagon. . . . Will these soldier boys who gave their lives that others might live, yet never professed any Christianity, be sent to a bottomless pit to burn forever and ever? You need not answer that one. . . - . From this hour, friends, let's you and I go forth and preach a God of love to the youth of our land instead of a;

God of vengeance. ... . ..When life does not seem worth the struggle and we throw up our hands and cry, what's the use, let's think over the lines of that beioved American poet, John G. Whittier "Ah well for us all some sweet hope lies Deeply buried from human look of misery which contorted the girl's lovely features. In that ex pression he thought to read both fear and despair. "A moment, please, I will come in directly. It it is so peaceful here." The girl spoke over her bare and rounded shoulder in fluent German, and at the same time hastily dabbed at her eyes with a frothy lace handkerchief. In apparently guilty haste her fingers next flew to her compact and in another instant she had skilfully repaii?:d the damage wrought by those inexplicable tears. As suddenly as the turn of a ma gician's card the blonde vision was j cone, and onlv a black interval in I the palms was before Ian's bewil-1 1 J f-t a 5 4 -t L i Suddenly tie noticed the slimmer of like a tuitive diop dcred eyes. Ah! He glir.ipsed at her glittering ball gown once or twice through the 'intersections of the palm fronds, but then she was definitely gone. Vtell, may i be crowned! he muttered to " himself. "If that doesn't beat the cards! 1 What a perfpet, evquisite beauty I'll have to meet rier. Wonder who slie is? VVhnl iliJ t'jat man c:ill her?" He sat bolt upright- with a start that flicked. t.e,ash from his cig arette into a watering pot to make a minute hissing sound. "Lolita! It couldn't be." In, a mild mental turmoil he laughed to himself. "How absurd there are many women called Lolita." Still obsessed with purity of that moonrevealed profile, he told himself that the girl who had just left could not possibly be the conscienceless and practised tntriguese w'ho was charged with wrecking the lives of at least three men. Can t be the same, he decided as he got up. "Just the same, I'd better get in my ground work before the crowd arrives." So deciding,' he grinned a thoroughly boyish grin and ground out his cigarette under his heel before starting for the door. i "Now what the devil could have gone, wrong? Bet her canary died or something." . To his disappointment he found that quite a number of other guests had put in an appearance and that aireaay tne Doyisniy sienaer young beauty was attended by three or four eager callants who made a
