A Woman's Way.

When the duchess thought of look

was not to be found. Galorey told her
finally he had gone off in the motor
with Lefty Lane, bareheaded. The
duchess was bidding good-by to the
last guest; she motioned Galorey to
wait and he did so. and they found
themselves alone In the room where
the flowers, still fresh. offered their
silent company; the druggets strewn
with leaves Of smilax, the open piano

even though he was little by little be-

determined to be fair to her.
1T was too sweet of her not to

soothe her feelings" the woman said.
You don't know her." he replied
quietly "She wouldn't touch a cent"
The duchess exclaimed in horror:

With a sharp note in her voice she
said: Il hope it won't be in the papers
that you drove bareheaded back to the
hotel with her. Don't forget that we
are dining with the Galorey's, and it's
past seven"
After Dan had left her, the duchess
glanced over the dismantled room
which the servants We're already re-
storing to order. She was not at ease
and not at peace, but there was some
thing else besides her tiff with Dan
that absorbed her, and that was Ca
lorey. She couldn't quite shake him
off. He was beginning to be imperi-
Gus in his demands on her; and. in

in spite of the precarious position in
which she found herself with Dan, she
could not break with Galorey yet. She

breath the ballad Lefty Lane had sung
in the music room:

She smiled wickedly, and couldn't

showed him that the insult had gone
home.

was so sweet that it made the senses

Maintains Position in Race for
Basketball HonorS.

Owing TO the Christmas vacation only two
games were played in the struggle for the
basketball championship Of the Public
Schools Athletic League last week. Rather
than have the holiday recess interrupted
the schools postponed their scheduled
games.
Newtown High School. which is heading
the eleven competing schools. did not play
it's scheduled game. The Long Island FIVE
has won Eve contensts. The eligibility Of
Bailen, which has been widely questioned.
will definitely be settled at a meeting OF the
league games committee shortly.
Stuyvesant. the championship five Of last
year. looH1ed UP az an exceedingly strong
contender when the weak Erasmus Hall
FIVE was routed in game last Friday by a
score Of 50 to s. The "Dutchmen" contin-
ued TO display their puZzling and rapid
team work. which could never be solved
by their opponents. II was Erasmus Halls
sixth consecutive defeat. Stuyvesant has
returned a victor in FIVE OF its six contests,
being beaten only by Newtown. which
game, however. has been protested.
The High School OF Commerce still occu-
pies third place, with four victories and
one defeat It's scheduled game was post
poned. The game between Manual Training
and Commerce. which was postponed re-
Gently. will be fought out in the Manual
gymna stun on Wednesday afternoon.
Eastern District moved up in the race
when Il vanquished the Flushing High
School In en- exciting and hard fought game
by a score OF 81 TO Is. Flushing enjoyed
rneagre lead at the expiration Of the first
period. but the Williamsburg five thereafter
played the game they are capable OF and
held their opponents safe.
Manual Training maintains fourth POSI-
ton. but uncomfortably pressing It are

High schools.
The coming week will be busy one, with
the regularly scheduled games and several
postponed ones.
