r HAD heard a strange wild
laughing while was eX-

thought that someone had told
an awfully good joke back in the

much Of it, except that it was a

people would be there unless
they were hunting.
Then the thought came to me
that the hunting season was
closed. Who could be laughing

But then I topped one Of the
sand dunes and came upon
Bobby and Bunny, and Bunny

laughter increased.

which she was ever on the out.
look, and she accepted, oh, so
eagerly.
Then came the kindest little
talk in the world from her enn-
ployer. Mr.. Smith.
Peggy learned that the firm
valued dignity and delicaey in the
girls whom they employ quite as
highly as they value business
ability.
She learned that the artist was
married and had the reputation
Of not being overparticular about
the women with whom he asso-
ciated. She was advised If she
wished to make a big success Of
her business career, to seek the
companionship of fine girls such
as Mary and Elise and Jane. and
to be more wisely careful about
making men acquaintance.
A few days later came a charm
ing invitation from Mr.. Smiths
wife to an evening at their
home. Peggy there met several
congenial and pleasant people
both girls and young men-And
10! the answer to her first big
problem began to be solved.
OF course not every girl in every
office is fortunate enough to meet
with the kindly impersonal interest
Of a Mrs. Smith.
Peggy, after several years Of
business experience, finally came
to the conclusion that the prob

In time Peggy decided that the
young man back home whose de.

meant more to her than her bust

as many Peggys do at the end OF
a few years of business life.
