CHAPTER 20

CHAPTER % On leaving the Horton house on Thursday evening George Dixon turned his carl eastward. His companion looked at him in surprise.
 "Where are you going?' she de- manded. "Ralph's is not in this di- rection."
 "Who said we were going to Ralphs he laughed. We are not. Instead, we are going to one of the most interesting joints you have ever seen." ..
 q have not seen many" his com panion remarked. Tell me about this one"
 "Well-there's not so much to tell, :" said.
 T hope it is respectable-and all that kind of thing" the girl suggested.
 George laughed again. "ls Saul among the prophets?" he jeered. "The idea of your wanting to make sure that a place is deadly proper before going to it."
 Don't be an idiot!" the girl re- proved. II do not insist that the place be what you call deadly proper.' But I do insist that there be some decent people there besides ourselves-I mean besides myself" .
 "I forgive the implied insult" Dixon said, good-naturedly. He liked Marian's insolence and she knew that he did. Seriously, though, let me tell you about this joint. It's place where you can get good eats, good drinks and lots of dancing. Wonderful dancing, too. The proprietor imports what he calls foreign talent to per- form certain numbers. l thought per- haps you might get some new ideas for yourself by watching some of them"
 Nice boy!" Marian patted his arm approvingly. But when he took his hand off the wheel to seize hers she spoke sharply.
 Don't do that!" she commanded. Then, more gently, T prefer that you use two hands to drive with, you know"
 "An right!" George grinned. For happy y-go-lucky, do-as-you-please per son, Marian, you are certainly the greatest prude ever knew. You're a funny combination anyway" Because I decline to be paved by men and make them keep their hands off," she exclaimed. Well, am not bit ashamed of that eccentricity of mine. I call it decency, that's all" Sure you dol" the man admitted, "Yet you do lots of other unconven. tional things"
 'Perhaps-but they are different" the girl said. T can keep my self-re- spect and do them. 1 cannot let a man paw me and kiss me and not hate him and myself, too."

 The truth is that they are on the whole less sensitive than men. In ad- dition,, they have the advantage of a thicker layer of fat immediately be- meath the skin. This being a bad con ductor of .hent, acts as an obstacle to heat loss and enables them to do with less clothing.

 "Hmmm :" the nice policeman said. "Of course, the magic stick is Harry's and if the strange man bothers you again, just you run up to my house and 1 will arrest him sure pop!
 Thank ,youw Mrs. Hoolygooly said Now; if you boys will visit awhile, Raggedy Ann and I will go out in the kitchen and cook dinner. for I know you must all be hungry after eating the cream puffs, they al- ways give one such an appetite" So with a laugh, she and Raggedy Ann, arm in arm. danced out to cook with the magic stick. Leaving the Hooly- gooly and the policeman to smoke their pipes and talk with Raggedy Andy.

ScantY Clothing

LONDON, Jan. 16.-Many sashi0n- ably dressed women, we are told, arc running unnecessary risks to their health by going about in light and scanty dresses, silk stockings and shod only in thin shoes.
 To go to extremes in clothing is. of course. absurd.
 On the other hand. there can be no women folk in cold weather presents n marked contrast to the miserable ap- pearance of the average man shiver- ing in spite of his heavier clothing.
 Why is it that women can stand the cold so much better than men. They

retard the loss of heat and minimize the demand made on the muscles ts produce extra warmth. In other words we re-enforce natures own method of keeping up, the body temperature.
 Up to certain point resisting na. ture by choice of clothing and artificial heat is not only desirable. but also very necessary.
 On the other hand, it is bad to muffls up too much, as unless the heat-regu- lating center is stimulated it gets, as it were, out of gear. The result is that when it; is required to act it may be suffering from disease, leaving us more liahle to catch cold. e

PRIEST UNDER GUARD
Buffalo Clergyman Had Refused to
 Permit Funeral at His Church

Buffalo. N. Y., March 7.-Father Joseph Gambino. pastor of the Holy Cross Catholic church was guarded by police in his rectory today while sev- eral blocks away the Episcopal fun eral service was being read for Peter Bonventre, grocer, who died in Col umbus hospital three days ago. Patrol men and mounted police were at the scene of the funeral, and federal agents mingled with the mourners.
 The police guard resulted from a statement to the police by Father Gambino that he had received therat- ening letters because of his alleged refusal to permit the ceremony to be held in his church. Two thousand per sons attended the funeral, and six hundred automobiles were in line.
 Father Gambino told reporters Bonyentrc had refused last offices of the church. The Rev. Frederic Will Hams. pastor of St. Mary's on the hill, where the funeral took place, said the church had been opened to the ceremonies by order by Bishop Brent.

ASKS METHODISTS
 ID FIGHT FIGHTS
Bishop Berry Opposes Boxing.
 Wants U. s. Drier

Atlantic City, Mtrch 7.-Adminis. tration forces won decisive victory at the New Jersey Methodist Episco, pal Conference yesterday, when two memorials to the General Conference designed to curb the powers of Bishop Joseph r. Berry, Senior Bishop of the church and presiding officer of the nesting here, were overwhelmingly dee-<ted.
 These two memorials petitioned the General Conference. which is to meet in Springfield. Mass, in May, to fix an eight year term for Bishop instead of the present life tenure, and the ether provided for the election in- stead of appointment by the Bishop of the District Superintendents with in the conference Jurisdiction.
 The conference by vote of 134 to 3 disapproved of a memorial which would give the laity delegates to the General Conference.
 Action on another memorial, call ing for the unification of the Metho- dist church of the North and the Me thodist church of the South, was laid on the table.
 The conference unanimously ap- proved calling a national conference of the church to devise means to bring about strict enforcement of the eighteenth amendment. The memo rial pledges the New Jersey confer cnce and each minister to give aid to candidates for public office who favor improved enforcement.
 An effort on the part of the New Jersey Society for the Prevention of Crime to have the conference sponsor bill in the state legislature, raising the cost of admission to boxing bouts from SIS to sa5 was interpreted by the conference as an indirect effort to have Methodists sanction the legality of boxing. It was beaten. The Rev. Thurman Demaris declared that the purpose of the request was to make the conference recognize bigger fights"
