Hon. Do You Take 1t?

LOW are you going to greet the man
IL who comes to YOUR office and asks
for YOUR contribution to help send the
University of Washington crew to the
Poughkeepsie regatta this summer?
Are you going to say: Why | never

Washington crew will bring the city adver-
tising on the sporting pages of newspapers
the country over that couldn't be pur-
chased for hundreds of times the money

These days women ever look

So We find our girls thinking
more Of their satiny skins and
their glossy nails and their
smooth marccls than OF home
and children. Instead OF baby
faces. they see in their dreams
shimmcring silks TO wrap about

And they think thus TO hold the

VIC TO believe that, when wrink-

have loved us will love us no

This is mere FOOLS cant. For

why pay so high a price for AN

of going oft again into the bitter, I'M
believable light-at the thought of his
cold little home at the farther end of
the village.
He was thinking, too, of his wife and
the mile walk she would have to take
with him into the very teeth of the
buffeting gale when this visit was over.
She had come to this wretched little
town from a great city, where houses
and flats were warm and snug. He
thought of the warm little room on the
third floor of the boarding house where
he had lived and studied for two full
years. 1t was in this house that he had
met Josephine Judge. She was the
daughter Of the kindly widow who con-
, Quoted the boarding house-a tall, slim
girl who used slang and was gay and
blithesome, and had ambitions Ambi-
tons? She wanted to become an
actress. She was stage-struck.
He was not a theatergoing youth.
He had been brought up with an alb
horrenee for the stage and all its in
iouities. So he devoted himself, heart
and soul, to the saving of the mis-
guided maiden, with astonishing re-
suits. They fell in love with each
other and were married.
He pressed his face against the cold
pane. striving to rid his mind OF the
doubts and worries that beset 1t.
Suddenly he drew back with an ex-
clamation. The light fell full upon a
face close to the window pane, face
So startling and 80 vivid that it did not
appear to be real. A pair of dark,
cleaning eyes met his for a few Sec
onds: then swiftly the face was with
drawn. He leaned forward and peered
Intently. Two indistinct figures took
shane in the unrelieved darkness at the
corner of the porch-two women, ne
made out.
"Joseph." he called, there are two
strange women on the porch. Perhaps
you
eco see who 1t is. Joe," commanded
Mrs. Grimes crisply.
