Ruth held her cheap little purse
dignity as the elevated train hurried
bar down to the shopping district. She
mad saved for long, long time to get
ne $50 together, but she felt that the
secession warranted the skinny lunch
sons and countless self-denials that
had been necessary.

vet knee-length atrocity covered with
battered sequins that came in this
morning, I guess the heathens won't
have much on her"
When Ruth looked over the adver-
tised dresses she found that they out
distanced her hopes. One in particu-
lar was stunning. Blue silk with smart
touches of gray-and-white braiding
and an adorable vestee Of sheer en-
broidered stuff suited her exactly.
Conventional enough for the street yet
suitable for any place that she would
be likely to wear 1t. and only $50.
Yet, as she looked at herself In the
great triple mirror, another form
seemed to fit In and blot out the
smart coat-dress. The face Of the Sec
ond girl was filled with pregnant dis
appointment at the sorry trick fate
had played upon her.
The dainty little wedding gown that
had been stitched full of glrlish hopes
that she had planned to wear to Sun
day school to meet her young charges
had vanished and In its place the slim
hands clutched horror Of faded, gro
tesque finery about her. "She could
wear her suit skirt" argued Ruth,
looking pitifully at the dream figure
her thoughts had so uncomfortably
conjured into the shop mirror.
"Not in that climate" reminded her
conscience grimly, 'the heat Of this
Saturday afternoon in temperate
zone ought to tell you that"
"What did you say, dearie?" cooed
the shopglrl. patting the ear buns that
fell holly to her almost bare shoul

the effort as she drearily unlocked

Ruth, her vast disappointment abou,
the silk dress fading as she hunted
for the exact shade Of pink to blend
with the rose sprigs, hurried home
after buying thread and length Of
soft pink ribbon. II have this evening

planned, wishing the elevated would
go faster. Most Of the sewing viii
be on the machine and cutting out two
dresses is hardly more work than one.

The following Saturday long bon
was dispatched to tho neighbor from
Franklin. Inside lay the replica Of
Ruth's new gown From crisp wide
sash to brief rufied sleeves they were
identical, but the hat destined fer the
missionary bride was the prettier.
The wide brim dropped softly. and
ON one side Ruth had fastened a simple
bow made Of beautiful pink silk. The
costly ribbon had seemed unnecessary

LONDON FACES LOCKOUT IN
THE ENGINEER TRADE

London, March 10.--(By the A. .P.)-
There appeared to be this evening no
hope Of averting the threatened lockout
in the engineering trade, the notices for
which expire tomorrow. Despite siren
uous efforts all day to arrive at a salts
factory solution Of the dispute, a dead
lock was reached late in the afternoon,
the engineers leaders announcing they
could not accept the employers proposals
regarding shop management, or recon-
ment acceptance to the men. The dis
pute largely involves the question of over
time. TO which the workers are Directing
as tending TO increase unemployment, an
the further question of whether the York
ers shall be given a voice in deciding
what constitutes unavoidable overtime.
One Of the points in dispute is the de-
termination Of the employers to rs,intain
the principle OF the right of employers Ia
exercise managerial functions. which must
be accepted by the engineers represent
z4ives before the lockout notices could be
suspended. This was not acceded to, am
late this afternoon 1t was announced that
the lockout notices woul be posted tomor-
row. The lockout will affect 1000 ,OOC
men.
