vacy, watching her out of the cor
ner Of one hungry eye, visioned Il
gleam of interest.
This was his initial touch OF tri-
umph. The divorce-the Introduction
OF a co.respondent-both devices had
gone unrewarded by SO much as a
single fash of interest. Hungry as
he was, he chuckled to himself at
the puzzlement which he knew must
be Clarry's at sight of himself unfed
And voluntarily so.
1t was not SO easy to leave the
lunch untasted. The turnip greens
and white meat were toothsome and
plentiful. And Privacy was gnawed
by a hunger exceeding strong. But
his reward came when Clarry opened
her lips to question him-then closed
them tight again and walked out
with the disI,ee. Privacy was sorry
that she hadn't spoken. Undoubted-
ly, the hunger strike was proving
more effective than any other method
but, too, II was extremely painful
to a man of Privacy's gastronomic
propensities.
The supper came near to proving
the finish of the hunger strike. After
a heroic battle, Privacy wrenched him
self away from temptation, and left
the ham swimming forlornly in it's al
Turing gravy. the rice untasted, the
corn pone ignored.
Clarry was bewildered And sooner
or later Clarry must crack. Privacy
found himself praying that II would
be sooner. He knew that he could
not stand the strain for long.
He was perfectly willing to admit
that F'lorian had at last struck the
y-fy Rtty ha Loo H1
arduous task which was his. He took
stock of the situation and scourged
himself into carrying on for another
day. And that night he slept fitfully
dreaming maddening dreams of bar
becued pork and rich Brunswick
stew; of crumbly waffies and golden
sirup; Of He walked moaning,
then lulled back into restless slumber.
Somehow he managed to resist the
breakfast; and marveled at the bride
which Clarry had upon her curl
osity.
At noon he again withstood the sue
culent meal. but his eyes were pop
ping from his head and he felt weak
and faint from the strain. Clarry
must give in-he knew that no wom-
ans curiosity could much longer re-
main unsated. And somehow, by dint
of physical effort of which he had
never dreamed himself capable, he de-
termined to fight away from the sup
per to withstand it no matter
what the shock to his digestive sys-
tenn. And then If Clarry did not ques.
ton him he knew his cause
was lost.
Clarry, too, sensed a crisis. She
came home about o'clock loaded
down with bundles. She built fire in
the iron range. And then, to Privacy's
tortured nostrils, there came the odor
Of frying chicken; of sizzling bacon:
of pancakes singing on the griddle.
of green's in the pot; of rich, steamy
coffee. And as a final Machiavellian n

to America in 1900. In 1909 he mar
ried Clara Clemens, daughter of Mark
Twain Samuel S. Clemens). The
United States is now his home.
Gabrilowitsch early desired to be an
orchestral conductor. AS a small boy

conductor of a Summer orchestra in
a suburb of Petrograd. At the Petro-
grad Conservatory he studied compo-
sition under Liadow and Glazounow
He made friends during his concert
career with many great conductors
among them Richter, Mailer and Nj

conducting with Nikisch in 1905, and
in 1906 made his debut as conductor
In Berlin, Vienna and Paris.

1917 he conducted in New York, and
again in 1918. Since then he has been
the regular conductor of the Detroit
Symphony Orchestra. He also is
widely, known as a lecturer.

DRIVERS DENIED
RIGHT HAND

New Traffic Regulation States
officer Must Give
Signal

1t is illegal for motorists to make
a right hand turn at street inter
sections where a. traffic policeman
is stationed without specific order
from the policeman to- make the
turn, under the terms of the new
traffic regulations, it was an.
nounced today by Director of Traf-
fic NJ. o. Eidridge.
Orders will be issued Immediately
to all traffic policemen to enforce
this order rightly, the director
stated. The fact that the reguIa-
ton is on the books is apparently
known to few motorists, he said,
and It issbefng universally violated.
Under the old regulations the mo-
torist could make a right hand
turn at any intersection regardless
of the direction of traffic flow or
the signals OF the crossing police
man.
The new regulations provide
that all motorists must stop behind
the crosswalk lines whenever the
sign of the traffic policeman is
against them, Director Eldridge
said.
After the Co sign is given the
right hand turn can be made, not
before. DRIVERS wishing to make
a left hand turn must stop behind
the building line until they get the
Go sign. then they can pull up
alongside the traffic policeman and
stop again until sighaled to COM
plete the turn"
The right hand turn is to be
strictly enforced as an educational
step in preparation for the traffic
light boulevard system soon to be
tried out on Sixteenth street north
west. it was stated.
