open door, from which a subdued light
streamed.
"Oh, Miss Field" said Madame
Carter.

ooh, yes. Madame Carterl" Harriet
answered. The two exchanged good
nights Richard loitered into his moth
er's room, left her In her maids hands,
and went back into the dimly lighted,
spacious upper hall. He felt oddly
stirred; there were letters downstairs,
his usual books and amusements, but
he felt curiously impelled to try for
one more word with Miss Field.
Tie opened the door OF Nina's room.

said that you understood that we had
been married. 1t is true!"
And she looked off toward the river
with an expression as composed as
that Of Madame Carter herself.

answered. my father was very anx-

pressions of that sort II
There was a silence. Harriet, be-
ginning to be ashamed Of herself, did
not look at her companion.
"A girl Of your age has great deal
of confidence when she marries into a
family like mine," the old lady said,

presently, in a tone that trembled a
little. "My son is rich mamie Is
prominent man. He has used his
own judgment, Of course. But I con-
fess that In your place should not
carry myself with quite so much an
air of triumph! 1t seems to me-"
Harriet determinedly regained her
calm, and taking the chair next to the
enraged old lady, quietly interrupted
the flow Of her angry words.
II hope i have shown no air OF
triumph, Madame Carter" Harriet
said. you yourself-and most wisely
pointed out to us few months ago
that the arrangement here was I'M

Every one was talking. II you mind

But upon my word, you'd think mar
rying into the family was something
to be done every day" she was be-
ginning again, when Harriet inter-
rupted again.
"No-no," she said, soothingly, con-
ceding the last words an amused
smile that itself rather helped to pla.
cate her companion. at is, Of course,
the most serious step of my life But
the secrecy-as Of course you will ap,
preciate-was because there has been
so much terrible notoriety this year !
Why, Mr.. Carter tells me that never

This fortunate lead was enough
Madame Carter launched forth superb
ly upon q description of the usual Car
ter weddings, the ceremony, the state.
In perhaps twenty minutes she was
blandly patronlzing Harriet, giving
her encouraging little taps with her
eyeglasses, warning her of mistakes
that Isabelle had made with Richard.
Harriet knew that before three days
were over her terrible mother-in-law
would be telling the world just how
wise, under the trying circumstances,
the whole thing was, and just how
clearly she had foreseen 1t. She was
still listening respectfully, II trifle

the house, and gave her an ELUSIVE
embrace.
"Hello, Mamma I" Ward said. Har.
riet laughed, as she pushed away the
filial arm. Hardly knowing what she
said or did she made her way to the
house, and up TO her own room.
But here. in Nina's room, were Nina
and Mrs. Tabor, and from their eyes,
as she came In, she knew that they
knew. Nina got up, and came for
ward with a sort of sulky gracious
ness.
II hope you'll be very happy, Miss
Harriet suppose oughtn't to call
you Miss Harriet any more" Nina
said, with an effort to smile that Har.
riet thought quite CHASTITY. She gave
Harriet one Of her big hands, and hest.
tated over a kiss. But they did moi
kiss each other.
At luncheon everything was exactly
as usual; Richard had gone to the
| city, not TO return for a night or two,
and several social engagements dis
tracted the young people from the con-
temptation Of their fathers affairs.

preeidoi1t OF the National Association
OF University Women, which main
tains permanent headquarters at
WASHINGTON, y. C.. A branch Ut this
association is one Of the very active
women's organizations in Grand
Forks. and a branch recently q
been organized In Fargo.
In 1919 the association OF Collegiate
Alumnae, as the organization was
then called. decided to establish In
Washington national headquarters.
which should be at the same time a
national center Tor the educational
work OF the association and u nation
al as we'll as international center OF
hospitality for college and university
women The association was fortunate,
in being able to secure for the launch
ing OF the enterprise ono OF the most
charming places in Washfnston-a
beautiful Colonial residence at 1907
n St., N. W.. on Lafayette Square OPP
posite the White House. directly adj
joining tho Henry Adams house-a
place of historic memories.
Experience has proved the need and
the value of such n center. College
women coming to Washington from
every part of the United States have
enjoyed it's charming hospitality; n
distinguished international guests
university women from the various
countries Of Europe-have been en-
tertained there. The undertaking Is
no longer an experiment. and at the
recent convention in Washington a
special committee was appointed to
make arrangements for securing u
permanent home in the capital city.
The association is most anxious
that the club shall be truly national
in scope and outlook. This e that
it must nave u large nonresident
membership from every part Of the
country. 1t is the first undertaking of
it's kind in the world. The intention
has been from the beginning to make
it one in a, chain OF international club
houses of university one in the
various national capitals. 1t ought to
appeal to every college woman be-
cause Of its national and international
Significance. To the college woman
who sometimes goes to Washington
it will makesin addition the appeal
OF personal interest. since her men,
bership will provide her with a de-
lightful place of residence at a cost
much below the prevailing hotel rates.
EMembership in the club is open
OILY to members OF the association.

These blades, of about one-fourth the

radial TO the mast, and bisecting this
face is a thin fiat blade of equal
