When all the rubbing Is done, even
% the last rite where they divide the
fragrant flood into two waves failing
over the bosom and mereilessly knead
the damp ends between folds OF the
Slryest bit of the towel, she drops that
implement and runs into the big room
where the dying open fire blinks Its
red eye ms though II had been waiting
up for her.
The wrlter-who Is privileged. for
the benefit OF large and growing
public, to see her In his minds eye
hs her pink bare feet pad up and down
the room, racing every time they come
90 the home-stretch between the UNI
peopled grandstand of the couch and
the fire, and then doubling suddenly,
so that her wide eyes may catch her
hair still on the wing, for all the world
like a kitten chasing Its tail-does
herein affirm, by the collective man
hood of the earth, that she was alto
gether lovable and beyond the reach
of sullying thought. Now let her
curl up In the bed and sleep.
Slumber meant nothing in Pamela's
life. That statement should be taken
not in the sense of the common slang
of the, vulgar, but at Its literal face
value. What Is meant is that when
this young lady slept Ii was like TAX
ing a chunk bodily out of life and
putting it In warm storage. As con-
sequence, when the od-fashioned clock
on the mantel buried n warning that
IT was thinking of striking the hour
of nine in about two minutes, she
opened her eyes and wondered through
what magic night had been suddenly
replaced by broad and smiling day.
Not for long did that lifelong and
accustomed miracle hold her attention.
for scarcely had II occurred, through
force of habit, TO her awakening
thought than her startled eyes fell up
on the tall, stopped, gray-headed figure
of man, clad in livery, and standing
unstably poised In the doorway of the
room, His eyes, naturally deep-set
actually protruded from his face as
though they were determined to come
halfway to meet Pamela's wondering
0rbs. He looked like solemn raven
which has carelessly alighted on live
wire.
"He helloi" stammered the young
lady.
"Good-morning. MISS" said Tomlin-
son, In sepulchral and censorlous
tones. "Where Is Master Robert?"
"You mean Mr.. Randolph" asked
Pamela, little breathlessly.
The old man steadied himself by
SELLING the door-jamb and bowed con-
firmation of her suppositlon.
IL don't know where he Is" said
Pamela, more calmly, "The last time
] saw him he was limping west" A
twinkle came into her eyes. "Why do
you ask?"
"Why do | ask?' he exclaimed.
miss, do you mind telling me who you
are and what you are doing In Mr..
Randolph's apartment at nine o'clock
on Friday morning.
"In November" supplemented Pam
ella, as though she were supplying Il
very important addition to the facts in

OWNER DUNN LOOKING
FOR SOME NEW BLOOD
Would Add Pep to His Cham
piOnship Aggregation.
Takes Team That Is In the Fight for
Ribbon TO Make Cash Customers
Enthuse-Natural for Vet
Grams TO Slow Up.

Jim Dunn. owner of the world cham
pion Indians, is looking around.
That is. he is in the market for
some young blood to pep up his cham
pionshlp diamond machine for next
year.
He isn't going To make the mistake
that many other owners of title-win-
ming combinations have done.
Just what he wants and whom he
is looking over is still in the rumor
stage, but Dunn isn't kidding himself
into believing that a good chariot
doesn't eventually break down and
drop out of the race.
His two youngsters, Shortstop Sew
ell and Sidewheeler Mails, answer In
way the question of bolstering up
the veteran side of the lineup. Dunn
is sweet on those two children of the
bushes.
Remember how Pat Moran stood pat
on the world champion Reds and how
they sputtered around below par last
season.
Dunn and Speaker realize that
Cleveland is no different from any
other big league town. 1t takes club
that is in the fight for the ribbon to
make the cash customers enthuse.
Clevelanders will expect lot next
year of the Indians, quite naturally.
So If Dunn and Speaker can dig
up some new talent they're going to
do so.
Baseball teams aren't essentially
different from other organizations.
The wick of ability burns rapidly.
Veterans eventually slow up.
So 1t takes the new blood TO keep
any outfit IN the race from winning
pennants to conquering worlds.
In the everyday problems of living
this attribute to success is called push,
but in baseball they simplify the spell
ing and make II plain PEP.

Measuring by the calendar, 1924 with
its next Olympic games is too far of
TO give n thought.
Measured by the problems ahead
of America and the imperative need
of a complete change of system, four
years are none too long.
Having learned good lessons from
its trying experiences in Antwerp last
summer, the American Olympic com
mittee is showing signs of disincli-
nation to be caught asleep at the
switch again.
Believing that the executive depart
ment should be overhauled and
brought up to date first, the COM
mittee is to meet soon and reorganize
after which a four-year plan of action
will be outlined.
Start Work at Once.
Instead of waiting until bare six
months before the next games. the
committee will start to work at once
and seek TO develop material in the
departments that brought out Amer
lean inferiority in Belgium.
The need of long distance runners,
shown in the games and more re-

added, with as much dignity as u

big bed, could summon.
The effect of her words on Tomlin-

that mean something In these times?

WHAT IS DOING
Continued from Page 1877

hesitate to say that in my opinion the
Elks have not only done much to in
sure the success of our vocational
training undertaking but have saved
the situation in an emergency which
might have meant failure but for
some such assistance as they have,
through their broad vision and wide
understanding, furnished
Our law makes no provision for
caring for those patriotic American
boys who enlisted in the armies of the
Allies and were wounded in that serv-
ice But the Order of Elks is caring
for them, and they can receive vo-
cationa1 training at the expense of
the Elks, just as those disabled in
our own military forces are trained
or reeducated at the expense Of our
Government.
In all these matters undertaken and
so successfully carried out by the
Elks there have been no public drives
or no street canvassins for funds, and
no money has been solicited or re-
eeived by them from any sources out
| side the individual Elks or the sub.
ordinate Elks' lodges.
AS was stated on the floor of the
House by the gentleman from WASH
, ington (Mr. Miller) at the time this
generous offer was accepted on be-
half of the representatives of the
| Government:
The Elks' fund thus provided is the
first instance of the kind in the his
tory of the country where a great pa
triotic. fraternal organization has
come to the aid of the Government in
so timely. helpful and substantial a
manner.
And greater than all this giving Of
money, greater than the erection of
the magnificent reconstruction hospi-
tai at Boston. or the equipping of the
two large base hospitals in France,
or the donations and assistance to the
Salvation Army. has been the spirit
Of sympathy and helpfulness reflect
ing the fraternal fellowship in which
the membership of the splendid Be-
nevolent and Protective Order of Elks
has by personal contact ENCOURAGED
so many thousands of our wounded
and disabled heroes to successfully
carry on in refitting or reeducatine
themselves for the future.

 We do not think the World War Veterans Organ- zation will make much headway among the real veterans whose needs taken care of by the American Legion.
