Dlcky'S quick footsteps sounded in
the hall outside before Lillian and
I had finished discussing her plan
for aiding me in the tasks of finding
a new abode and moving.
Don't hint a word of it until aft
er dinner" Lillian cautioned
shrewdly.
I nodded in comprehending &C
quiescence. Experience had taught
me the same truth.
Aren't you dressed yet?" Dicky
demanded through the closed door.
You had a good quarter-hour start
of me, and here 1 am clothed and in

and advancing into the hall. "Madge

Then the League of Nations exc

problem left unsettled in all the
world by now"
Lillian shot him a keen glance be-
fore she answered. L wondered IL
she had any inkling of Dickys new
attitude toward our friendship, his
resentment Of the aggressiveness
with which we sometimes attacked
our problems.

iety for his possessions was new TO
careless Dicky. i could not shut from
my mind the knowledge that Edith
Fairfax was now a member of the
Durkee home.
Have the honeymOOners return
ed?" 1 asked carelessIy, as Dicky
moved toward the hall.
Il don't think so. They were to get
back next Saturday the last L
heard"
The last I heard" I repeated
the words mentally 10 myself with
an irrepressible little addition
from whom?" Was it possible that
he was corresponding with-the
sound Of Dicky's voice at the tele-
phone cut short my speculations.
and fixed my strained attention upon
the hall outside.
Hello! That you, Edith? What's
the matter with your voice?"
How well they must know each
others voices! l couldn't help the
miserable thought coming TO me, as
1 noticed that Dicky had recognized
hers at once, and had not deemed
| It necessary 10 announce his own.
1T sounded hoarse, that's ALL"
fancied there was distinct anxiety in
his tone. 'Hows every little thing?
Where's Her Fluffiness?"
He paused for her reply. and
stole a furtive glance at Lillian. That
she was also listening intently to
the one-sided conversation I knew
| by her face. although her eyes were
| bent upon the fire in the CRATE.
"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that"
( Dicky's voice expressed only per-
functory regret, however, and 1 did
not vision any calamity to Mrs.
! Durkee. Hope she'll feel better in
the morning. No, we're not coming
out tonight. Lii met US at the sta
/ ton when we arrived. and cor
rallied US. We're here for dinner AMI
| the night. But We'll be out in the
rnorning. I suppose the old shack
is still standing"
Another pause, during which
Betty appeared at the door Of the
living room and rolled her eyes back
ward toward Dicky with distinct dis
approval. That he caught the hint
I his merit words demonstrated.
Thanks for looking out for IL. I'll
have to fly now, without even call
/ ing Madge 10 say hello. Betty is an
nouncing dinner. and you probably
l know what will happen TO me IL
delay the game. So long. See you to-
morrow. Hello, Betty! Do you see
how the very sight of you makes me
Jump for fear you'll disapprove Of
me?"
Betty grinned widely.
"Yoh certainly is de beat-in-est
man. Mistah Dicky." she said. But
you shoah was wise 10 ring off dat
telephone. Hain't no time to monkey
telephoning when one OF my dinnahs
is on de table. Dinnah am served,
Miss Lillian"
Her voice changed abruptly. as il
always does when she announces a
meal. I think the proudest mo-
ments OF Betty's life are when she
announces dinner formally TO the
mistress she adores. and her voice
and mien are filed with dignity.
But Dicky knows no law when he
IS in a hilarious mood.
You two can escort yourselves
in" he called over his shoulder. Tn
going to see that this lady gets safely
back 10 the kitchen. II she should
stumble and not be able 70 serve
that dinner"
With a mischievous laugh Dicky
put his hand upon Betty's arm and
rushed the protesting but chuckirg
. old coIored woman down the hall.
And I following, wondered miser-
ably II something Edith Fairfax had
said was responsible for Dickys hlgh
] spirits.

Dear Annie Laurie:
About a year ago I met young
man whom / went with several
times. One night while we We're in
the Oriental Inn he asked to see my
ring-a white sapphire. given me as
a gift by a soldier who was killed
in France-and after a little discus
sion he managed to get the ring from
me. Not long ago 1 saw him and
asked him for il but he said he
didn't have it with him, although at
the same time [ noticed it on the
hand of a young lady who was ac-
companying him. What steps shall
l take TO regain the ring?
The Loser.
The Loser: 1t would be perfectly
proper for you TO write the young
man a note and tell him that you
wish the ring without any further
delay. and then if he makes no eff
fort TO return it, you will be at lib
erty to take other steps to recover
il. Annie laurie.

Dear Annie Laurie:
I am a girl in my teens and have
a fine boy friend who has been very
nice TO me for about a year. He
has called on me regularly until just
recently. one of his friends told me
that he did not care for me any more
but he is not reliable and I do not
know whether to believe him or not.
Should I ask him about it when he
does come or just let him go?
Bobbie?.
Bobbie: If I were you ] would
ignore the fact that he does not come
regularly any more, for the average
young man does not like to be
sought Just let him see that you
can live without him by going out
with the other young men and if he
cares he viii soon let you know it
by his efforts TO get you to be the
same friend you were before.

Dear Annie Laurie:

SOFT PEDALPUT
ON HOTEL RAID
Member of City Police Depart.
ment Said to Have Been
Found in Search.

"soft pedal stuff continued to be put
over in the Cleo hotel raid case in city
court today.
A raid on the Cleo hotel. 124 East New
York street, early Sunday morning, re-
suited in the arrest of Luther c. Wood
ward. At, on the charge of keeping a
house of Ill fame and the arrest of two
men and two women on statutory
charges The raiders did not arrest an
unmarried member of the city police de-
partment. who, it is said, was found In
a room with a married woman. They
just made a note of the names Of the
patrolman and the woman and left them
at the hotel. It is possible that they
night not have arrested one Of the other
men had the police known that this man
is said to hold position at the city hall.
However, they did not know this and
the city hall man was brought In.
Two men giving their names as John
Smith, %, and Mark Smith, q, and two
women, Marion Long. %, and Lillian
Davis, 80, were arrested on statutory
charges. An attorney appeared for the
four, pleaded guilty for them In city
court and then this same attorney went
to the city clerks Office and paid each
Of the fines and costs which was 81 and
costs in each case.
Charges of keeping a resort against
Woodward were continued until June %.
Later it was learned that some one tore
up the Woodward affidavit and tossed
it into the waste basket. Judge Pritch-
ard started an Investigation and went to
the city clerks office where the judge was
unable to find any record Of the Wood
ward case
Judge Pritchard said that be had made
the findings in the cases of the two
Smiths and the two women ION recon-
mendation Of the police officers who made
the arrests and the prosecuting attor-
ney."
One of the two charges on which the
four we're arrested carries a jail sentence
and in cases Of that kind 1t always has
been the policy of Judge Prltchard to en-
force the law and require the defendants
in the case to appear before him in city
court.
III the woodward affidavit is not
found a new affidavit will be issued, -
Judge Pritchard stated.
The raid was made by Lieut. william
Cox, Lieut. Fred winkler and Sergeants
Baker. peeter and Richter, and four pa
trolmen.
When asked in reguard to the failure
OF the ialuihS squdu 10 diAVht 1h0 Po'i"A
man said TO have been found in the mar
ried woman's room, Chief Of police Jerry
Kinney, admitted he had received re-
port Of the raid and that he had the
names Of the woman and police officer,
who Is an ex soldier he said. The chief
said he would start an Investigation"
and might suspend the patrolman. The
chief also added that he had heard many
times that they were going Wild" at the
Cleo Hotel, and that he ordered the raid
