CHICAGO, July 19.-If Peggy
Hopkins Joyce hadn't given ].
Stanley Joyce a liberal education
in the feminine art of addition
and subtraction, as applied to
her own and Stanley's purses,
respectively, the bubble romance
of Faye Gereau might not have
burst so suddenly nor SO sOr-
didly. -.
But, since Stanley "got his"
or rather was relieved of a mil
lion of his, in the school Of ex-
perience, successors to Peggy in
his potential affections can look
forward to not much but q din
ner or two, a good time, and a
box of candy or so.
Poor, Pretty Faye.

Ferguson introduced her to Dear
Old STAN"
She lost her Job, you know. because
she violated the rules of the Michi-
gan avenue club and accepted the
attentions of a club guest while she
was merely an employe. 1t was be-
cause she dared to dream OF romance
and wedding bells, with Stanley In
the hero role, and confide her dream
In her little black dairy. which, alas,
was misplaced and found by club Of
ficials that punishment by dis
charge was meted out to her.
The story was first told exclusively
by the Cosmopolitan News Service
and two sections from the diary pre-
viousIy published. Today the third
and last instalment and an interview
which tells of the bursting Of the
bubble romance are presented. The
entries were made prior to May ],
when the diary was lost.
Miss Gereau evidently sensed the
fact that the time was close at hand
when the clubs officials would learn
of Joyce's attentions to her and
cause her dismissal. She therefore
planned taking a vacation in May.

Stanley called and came up at s

at De Jonghe in a private dining
room. Some party. Carl wanted to
ramble all over the place. Elsie and
he did not get along together very
well. Over at the Randolph for a
couple of dances. and I might add
that Stanley is not a bad dancer"

Changes Her Mind.
The balance of the romance with
it's ending was told by Miss Gereau
when she was interviewed in the
midst OF her preparations for her
departure to New York. She said:
"I have changed my mind a whole
lot since writing that diary. l
