 He took my hand and bowed over it.
 Aren't you going to introduce me, Ria"
 Pardon me. Virginia, this is my friend" there was a slight accent on the friend-"Mr. Herbert Richard son, whose life is spent In making the picture colony happy. It will give him the greatest pleasure in the world to see you smile," she con tinued.
 Yes, Virginia, smile for the gen. tleman! exclaimed Billy Johnson.
 T am going to smile for you. Mr. Johnson,' I said taking his arm as I saw Herbert Richardson edging over to me.
 The manner in which Billy Johnson drew away from me slightly told me that it had been agreed upon between the two men that Billy should attach himself to Gloria. Gloria. however, never batted an eyelash, but I knew she was laughing in her sleeve, and l felt rather proud of mysels for so adroitly arranging matters.
 Did you tell her to do this, Ria?'' l heard Herb Richardson say to Glo- i@ eS "o AioFou loA W diu lOWdTu tue car.
 Do what? Come to your party? !? Yes, I told her to do that"
 In spite of the combined maneuver- ing of the two men. I managed to pull MT. Johnson into the back seat with me and with i'll grace Richard son helped Ria to the seat beside his.
 Say. you are some little fixer" Billy Johnson whispered.
 T don't understand you, MT. John son."
 "oh. call me BiSy. Everybody does. They say Billy )f they like me and Bill when they don't" Does anyone hate you--can any one hate your" That is 8 sweet thing for ycm to falling"
 opened my eyes wide at this, for l think 1t was the first time I had heard that slang phrase. My spirits arose. by nerves were beginning to jingle with excitement, I felt my cheeks grow warm even though the wind came against them with a rush, because Herb Richardson was break ing all speed laws.
 As we drew up to the motor en- trance l heard Herb Richardson say: Can 1t. Gloria, can it!" Tomorrow-At the Party. Copyright, National Newspaper Service.)

AROUND THE "HAM
By HENRY VANCE

Rule 2-The. shimmy, the Aus tralian crawl, the lockstep, the Scandinavian snuggle, the Swiss movement and the blind -staggers are to be ruled out. Those guilty are to be boiled In tar, garnished with feathers and put on a bread and water diet for three months.
 Rule 3-The city government shall in no wise be responsible for corn-fractures, bunion- smashes, fallen arches or lost articles, unless these are left in the safe of the box office at the start of the dance. This clause appears merely to show the com mission that no one could sue the city for damages to corns, bum ions or added insteps.
 Rule 4ECheek dancing is not to be permitted unless special city permits are issued. Think what painful injuries might occur to milady's cheek if her partner, with a three days growth of beard upon his face, persists in checking her. It would scratch through the cosmetic foundation and into the quick.
 Rule 5--No jazz music shall be permitted. Such selections as Chopin's funeral march Of he wrote one); The End of Perf- nick Day, Sousa's Dirge and Taps are to be played exclusively. Slide trombones are to be barred from the orchestra pit. The lat ter clause is inserted for the sim nla that q Aanpa daVnf @ wants to start wiggle every tim the trombone blares forth.
 Miscellaneous-Per caught throwing used chewing gum on the floor shall be given penalty of 80 days at hard labor on the streets.
 Any man falling to respond to an S o from a brother who is stuck" shall be placed before a firing squad at half past dawn.
 All musicians shall be given straig ght time, but the trap drum mer shall receive time and a half for his efforts. and shall be given a brief resting spell every fourth number when a waltz is played.
 Each dancer must hold out his or her hand, before making a turn on the floor, in order that no collisions will occur. All traf- fic signals shall be in vogue on the ballroom floor.
 No man shall appear on the floor if he has more than half pint pocket in his wearing ap- parel.
 These rules are merely sugges- tions, of course. but 1 think if the city commish will reconsider and put the 0. k. on dancing, if 1t is carried out by the above rules. that all of the sin will be taken out of sincopationz Much obliged.

Herbert Richardson Calls

Silly, l don't mean make-up." said Gloria as l told her I did not wan. to use rouge. T mean you should have touch of color in your gown. All that white, with your blonde hair. looks very sweet. but no one would single you out in a crowd. Walt a minute! Let me think"
 She rushed into her room again and came back with belt of lovely pale-biue satin ribbon. Luckily 1t matches this veil," she said, holding out long length of blue chiffon.
 Deftly she wound the veil about my waist till 1t almost touched the floor below my skirt. Then, snipping 1t off to length of ribbon, she tied the end of each streamer in a tiny bow around the top of the tassel which finished the point at each side of my skirt. The other ends of the rib bons she sewed to the bracelet of georgette which formed a part of my sleeve at my wrist. This bracele. held together the strips of georgette which hung from the armhole. leav- ing my arms bare at every motion.
 The effect was charming. but still Gloria was not satisfied
 You need just one more thing she remarked as she rushed away. 1 heard her rummaging around in the drawers of her wardrobe trunk She came, back with a beautiful bunch of hand made pink and blue flowers which she pinned in the knot of my sash.
 "Now. you are perfect! And we are just in time, for there goes the tele- phone." I heard my charming and competent little roommate says Yes" - - Tell MT. Rich- ardson that we will be right down.
 A little smile curled her lips as she said this. T knew he expected to come up. but we are going to foo him several times this evening"
 I did not realize how lovely Ria's addition to my gown was until. rais- ing my arms to put on my pale blue evening cape, I found that the move ment pulled the points of my skirt up until 1t resembled the petals of q flower.
 Ria. adjusted her green cape with it's lovely soft moleskin collar. How beautiful that is. It must have cos. a million dollars" I exclaimed in rap tures."
 Tt cost me less than twenty"
 How did you do it?"
 Well, this chiffon velvet is a queer shade, you see, and l bought this remnant for eight dollars. The chif- fon lining cost me about eight dollars more and Mona Ransen gave me the collar. l know that every woman who sees me tonight will say: I would like to have her tell me how she manages it. She has been in atmosphere until this last part. and hey will add all sorts of nasty and catty things. Not one of them knows how many times l have searched the cheaper stores for something that made their clothes look like thirty cents when wore 1t. although they have purchased their clothes at one of the fine French shops."
 T should think that you would de- sign dresses" I said again admirina her costume as we went down in the elevator.
 T may, some time. am getting rather tired of this business"
 Hello, Billy" said Ria.
 A long, lean. saturmne looking chap came forward. "virgie, let me introduce to you Billy Johnson. the comedian of our little flock, the greatest little laugh h-provoker in the

Virginia Fairfax, daughter of the first families of Virginia, rebels against the puritannicnl rule of her grandfather and, Iured by Fiimland, runs away to become a motion pic- ture actress. Arriving nt Los Ange- les, she meets Gloria Summers, who Is in the movies. They become warm friends. They meet Herbert Riehard- 'knn, a wealthy young man, who has heen interested in Gloria. Gloria breaks down sobbing her unrequited love for him and gives thanks that God sent Virginia to her, as she had been feeling so weak and alone. Glo- ria accepts, for herself and Virginia, Herb -Richardson's invitation to Il party. When Virginia remonstrates because of the inst crowd that will attend, Gloria replies that she must see Richardson again. She promises to take care of Virginia. Gloria eU- plains to Virginia her shrewd guess that Herbert Richnrdson's interest in her is because he likes relaxation from the rigid standards of the girls he meets fin his mothers home. Dressed for Herb Richardson's party, Gloria was n picture of exquisite beauty. She aided Virginia in the art of effective dressing.

BENTON APPEALS
 FOR LACY PAROLE

Montgomery, January 4.-(SpeciaL) J. o. Benton, former warden of the state prison at Speigner. appealed to the board of pardons today to recom- mend the release on parole of Theo Lacy. former chief clerk of the state convict department. who is serving the second sentence for the theft of state funds.
 MT. Benton said he knew Lacy and that he was convinced that he never was a criminal at heart He called attention to the oft-expressed hope of Lacy that he would not do anything while in prison to cause any criticism and that Lacy had refused to fish at Speigner lake because of the fear that someone might criticise it. He said he believed every person con nected with the convict department. including prisoners, would be glad to sign an appeal for the parole of Lacy.

Whoa be unto you! The old expression "On with the dance" Just naturally ain't. of with the dancer has been substituted by the city commish. i. They're thinking of changing tHe name of Pershing Pier to Pertaining Pier. That's what it's doing. No danc- Ing at the municipal park next year. That was the edict of the commish. Oh, well. the ban hasn't been placed on Drop the Hand kerchtef yet, and London Bridge" and Auction Bridge" are still permissible.
 Hate to see the ban on dancing, though. Good healthy exercise. Jesse Sherer has been keeping physically fit for years, simply by dancing. Herman Farley told me one day it beat walking a mile any time. Nuts O'Brien has shaken wicked ankle for To, these many. You don't see Fred Schauf and Louie Robinson car- rying around any excess baggage in paunches. Dancing has kept 'em slender and graceful, so that they can wear trick suits with Norfolk jackets. Sid Berry Is -an- other slender one. Dancing did it. There's a big terpsichorus hereabouts.
 In the old days, before prohi- bition came on, we had the Vir- ginia reel. Then, there was the square dance, when Boston-toed shoes were the vogue. Trouble with the square dance, one had to call signals, like they do in a football game. The tango came and went. The minuet was once in style. They've been dancing In this old world ever since Sa- lome did her title skit with somebody's I ad in a dishpan. Nero once played a select jazz number while Rome burned. But the city comHish has come for ward with the well-known ab- breviation for New Orleans N. o.
 Still. it's never too late to amend. And, I've thought up some rules and restrictions which might solve the problem and put dancing at East Lake in the good graces of those commissioners who put shin digs, hops and breakdowns in the taboo column. By adhering to the following rules and bylaws dancing could be carried on in Birmingham to the satisfaction of the most fas- tidious:
 Dancing Rules
 Rule 1-The strangle hold shall be barred. Anyone caught using the strangle hold. or the half-Nelson, or the fufl-Stilson. shall be barred from all floors for a period of six months. A second offense shall draw a five year suspension.
