for our firm that 1t is most enthusiastic
in this project and consider that 1T has
been the wisest move ever attempted

who are entirely unacquainted with

most optimistic as to the OUTLOOK
There has been a large increase IN
our business since early in the tall,

in the last few days was due to the cell
ebration entirely. However, l am sure
that the people of this section are going
to benefit to great extent by the
movement. 1t is going TO attract peo-
pie to this section who knew absolutely
nothing about us before. Within

Model Young Woman"
"A girl may win high athletic hon.

for women who can toss hot biscuits

Is one of the greatest safeguards that

Selwyn very uncomfortable. The boys
close relations with Neergard worried

finally agreed TO drop the Siowitha

This added to Selwyn's restlessness,
and one day in early spring he had a
long conference with Gerald-a most
unsatisfactory one. Gerald for the
first time remained retcent, and when

derstanding between them, pressed

social ambitions, an enemy to block
his entrance into what he desired-the
society of those made notorious in the
columns of the daily press.
He was fairly on the outer boundary
now though still very far outside. But
a needy gentleman inside was already
compromised and practically pledged
! TO support him, for his meeting with
Jack Ruthven through Gerald had
proved of greatest Importance. He

Selwyn let the matter drop very quick

But neither tact nor caution seemed
to serve now. Gerald, more and more
engrossed In occult social affairs OF

was still amiable and friendly, even at
times cordial and lovable, but he was
no longer frank or even communica-

him again TO sullenness or perhaps
even to suspicious defiance, forbOre to
press him beyond the most tentative
advances toward the regainlng OF his
confidence.
Gerald and Neergard left the Office

lunched uptown. Whether they were
