must confess, Ruth, / could not
eat much. Everything seemed so
strange l kept wondering what the
heavy coats were for, and expecting
something new in the way of enter
tainment. At last l turned to Mr..
Sartoris and remarked:
"And now we are going to see your
yacht?"
AS 1 said this there were shrieks
of laughter and Mr.. Sartoris handed
check for thirty-one hundred dol
lars to Jack with a bow. 1t seems
this was just the amount they had
wagered on my lack Of curiosity.
Bending low over my hand my
host said: II hope you will not think
me impolitely impert;nent, my dear
Mrs Prescott. If I ask you in which
you are the most lacking, a sense of
curiosity of knowledge of geog
raphy?"
Jack tossed the check over to me
with the remark: Here is the
money I promised you If you got our
friends to accept the invitation to
this affair. Surely you hadn't for
gotten that Pittsburgh is an inland
city. Now tell US what you really
did think
"Of course, didn't forget, I knew
when Mr.. Sartoris invited us to
lunch on his yacht that he had some
surprise for us, but I said nothing.
1t always irritates you, Jack, when
I ask questions about your plans,
and I thought Mr.. Sartoris might
be the same kind of a man. Why
should l be curious enough to spoil
any surprise that either my friends
or my husband prepare for me?"
Bravo! Bravo" said Mrs. Davies,
Il just took it for granted that
when you asked me to eat with you
on your yacht, Mr.. Sartoris, you
meant it," I said plushing, land 1
knew I would find out in time all
ABOUT it,
Il did mean it, my dear Lady of
the Shows I did mean it, and to
show you that I do still mean 1t, l
am going to take you over to At
iantic City where at this moment the

sale Mrs. Davies.
"Of course, by passenger aero
planes" he answered as calmly as if
that kind of travel were as usual as
motoring. IF you are ready we will
drive out to Stetson Field and take
eff from there"
Jack" I whispered as the others
were getting into the motors, why
did you wager with any man about
me? Everyone must see you are
making my idiosyncracies a by
word"
mo they don't, my dear. They
just think that you take what every
one says, or at least what everyone
of your friends says, a gospel truth,
and don't worry either them or your
self about it. 1t Is lovely charac-
teristic, my dear, and I consider the
wager a compliment. In any event,
it has won you several hundred dol
lars"
"Or in other words" interrupted,
'it has won me that lovely old chest
we saw in New York the last time
we were over there. I still think I
paid dearly for it, however, for am
afraid some of them will say my
husband loves a gamble better than
he loves his wife. I don't like any
one to think that, not even our
friends who would probably regard
you leniently."

ASKS BOY SCOUTS
TO COUNT TRAFFIC
EIdridge Seeks Data on Flow
in City Streets as Guide
for Reforms.

An appeal for $50 Boy Scouts to
volunteer for service as traffic count
ers i'm all sections of the city on We1-
nesday. April 10, and Saturday. April
25, was issued today by Traffic Di-
rector EIdridge and Hilliard B. Hol-
brook. a Scout executive.
Mr.. Eldridge and his aide, Col. !. c..
Moller, regard the forthcosning survey
to determine the volume of travel on
most of the principal streets as an
important step in finding out what
should be done to improve conditions,
and they are relying on the Scouts to
make the counts as public service
to the community.
The boys will be furnished with
clickers on which to register the num-
Der of vehicles passing their inter-
sections. Col. Moller explained there
will be four boys at each intersection
that has been selected. Each boy will
tabulate all machines approaching or
leaving the intersection from one of
the four directions.
How Tramc Flows.
The plan is not to follow one street
all the way through the city, but to
take the count at such points as will
the bulk of traffic flows.
When all the data has been col
Iected Col. Moller will make a map
of the city, showing the density of
travel on the various thoroughfares,
as found by the Scouts. This map
will serve as an index to Mr.. Eldridge
in deciding all such questions as
speed for arterial highways, where
the one-way4 rule is desirable, where
certain turns should be eliminated
and similar problems.
Following is a partial list of the
counting points, together with the
number OF the Scout troop which
should send boys:
