TT seemed an impossibility for
Jessie to finish one thing be-
fore she began another. She
started to embroider a centerpiece.
but soon laid it aside and began a
sweater. Then she decided to
make q beaded bag. but long be-
fore 1t was finished she thought
she'd try to make a summer
dress. Summer was over long be-
fore the dress was put together
because she became interested in
making a necklace and laid the
dress aside.
She was eighteen when she met
Clifton Ames. and she felt sure
that she had met her hero, but
when she was nineteen she met
Clarence Young and straightway
forgot Clifton. Every year there
after found a different young man
engaging her affections.
And It was just about the same
time that she met Morton Crane
and realized beyond q doubt that
she had met the ono man who
could not only win her affections
but hold them.

a neoktie for your"
IT surely would" he answered.
IT should value highly anything
that your hands made for me-"
"1T start it tomorrow" she
promised him, pleased and flat

next day. and worked on It assid.

own unfinished collar away with
numerous other unfinished arti-
cles.
Now while Morton did not par

coming very much Interested in

wondered why he did not get 1t.
Then he met Clarence Young one
day wearing a particularly beau.

"Jessie Is making one for me-"
Morton volunteered with some

"oh, she is? Well. hope you

Morton wondered over the

Sandy.

to put one over on a bunch

who took a trip to Atlantic City
recently. The evening was hot
and the train was one Of the
friendly kind that pause at every
little jerkwater station along the
right of way. After many such
stops, it at last managed to crawl
into the State of New Jersey.
The Washingtonians were hot,
uncomfortable and fretful when
the train stopped at little station

was attracted by q youth standing
In the center Of the isle with q

basket full of half.pint bottles.

asked the Washington barber.

ITS just cold tea, but mighty
good cold tea-only I must ask
you not to drink It till the train

Eager hands dug down after

minutes the chap was busy hand.

to move. The youth rushed for
the steps and jumped off. Five
minutes later, penknives and a
stray corkscrew were brought into
play. There were blissful sighs an
bottles were tilted skyward. Then
came gurgling oaths. The country
boy has told the truth. The bottles
contained cold tea.
