Illinois Guard who lost their lives
when a trench-mortar exploded at
Camp Grant, Aug. "A, were held Sun
day, Aug. 80, at the Eighth Regiment

Our hearts 60 out to you. They
died fearlessly and bravely They died
as heroes" Col. Duncan was with
the Eighth overseas and received his
commission as colonel and successor
to Col. Roberts when the regiment
returned to the states. Though he
was with his boys III France in the
thick of the fight and where he saw
the wounded and dying on every
side, yet when this brave man saw
the lives Of those eight men snuffed
out BY an accident i'll peace times, he
broke down completely. The next
speaker was Maj. Gen. Milton J. Fore
man, who was also overseas and who,
in behalf Of the 33rd Division, eulo-
gized the soldiers dead. Following him

of his own. It's positively tiresome

What weary hours you must
spend" kenilworth exclaimed. Il
promise you complete relaxation if
you will take a turn on the floor with
me. Miss Manners, here, is dying to
ask Brandon what sort of a chap l
am, and to ask him who you're plan
ming to marry next
"A cocktail. first" she demanded. A
waiter to whom kenilworth had in
trusted a pair of silver TASKS respond

4 previous offering and had not been
pressed. This time Brandon quietly
reached across the table and turned
mp her glass.
When Yvonne. with a nod to her,
had moved away for her dance with
Kenilworth, Joanna turned to Brandon
eagerly.
He seemed to read just what
was thinking" she said. Tell me
about him-and Yvonne; too. | never
dreamed that some day l would know
her. You see she has been one Of
those interesting people we talk about
lust to prove that we keep up with
the news"
Shall we begin with Roddy?"
Brandon asked, and they did. Joanna
sought him out on the floor as Bran

Il curious picture of wastrel-but a
picture she classified as of a romantic
idler in a colorful domain.

"A woman need never fear of being
seen with our Roddy in ATTENDANCE

eral description. His affairs are so
many no one keeps track of them or
becomes interested in n new one.
He adds just the proper perspective to
any young woman's background, for
to he admired by Roddy is cachet
of extremely romantic worthiness.'
But his business-doesn't he really
do anything?' Joanna wanted to
know.

must know how, or she wouldn't be
making the best Of life"
The ghost Of a smile that gave
cynical expression to Brandon's face,
came to the curve Of his lips. For a
moment he watched the girl. watched
her eyes leaping about the room,
watched them when they rested on
YvOnne when she traced her among
the dancers. and when they hovered
about Kenilworth. Then he MUIR
INJURED:
"A good many people in the world
would have a different analysis of
Yvonne Coutant's recipe for what you
term making the best of her life.
Some would pass different Judgment

Joanna regarded him with her de.

"Of course they would-some would

like they are. or like they think you
ought to be. What Is ones life for,

why people can't say their prayers

ITO that sentiment" random pro

He produced Kenilworth's silver flask
from under Il serviette and filled her
glass. She smiled across at him, while
she slipped, and felt that she had put
up another good battle for the rights
of youth.
When Kenilworth and Yvonne were
again at the table Kenilworth begged
Joanna to tell him IF Brandon wrap

THAT is something I shall have to

me you were not all dangerous, or
at least he gave me that impression.

And that is both a promise and
a challenge. I accept BOTH

proposed to her that she come to her
own place and make 1t her home. For

have you with meas long as you

What Kenilworth had said flashed
across her mind, his prediction OF just
this invitation. She fancied that she
caught a flicker of his eyelids when
she glanced at him. For one brief
instant the vision Of John framed
itself among her thoughts. but 1t
faded quickly when she had shaken
her head a little, to drive 1t away.
Anv thought OF John had become un

of vision hurt, though. The phrase
that ran so often across her brain
would come back-"Would that

thought of John coming to her and
finding her with Yvonne. There was
something about that which wasn't
right. So she gave that little shake
of the head and drove John away.

in her voice. II can't be still for

The flush that deepened the hues
of Joanna'S cheeks and the wrinkle
in her brow did not escape Yvonne
when Kenilworth and the girl re-
turned to the table. Brandon. too,

her trouble over the mystery which
confronted her in each new associa-
tion was quickly charmed away.

have assured me that he declares
his love first and then tells them
why. His reasons are, therefore, ac-
Cepted as being truthful statements
