sounds as if you mean that l have
the right idea about things, so
suppose it's all right. Any now
don't see why people can't say their
prayers with a smile as well as they
can with a grouch!'
ITO that sentiment, Brandon pro-
posed, I suggest another cocktail.
He produced Kenilworth's silver
flask from under a serviette and
filed 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 Bran
don wrapped me in scandal and de-
livered me as a broken idol" while
they were dancing.
THAT is something shall have to
consider" Joanna returned. He
told me you were not at all danger
Gus, or, at least he gave me that i'm.
preston. 1 shan't be at all afraid
Of you"
And that Is both a promise and
challenge. 1 accept both!'
Joannas pulses raced when
Yvonne proposed to her that she
come to her own place and make 1t
her home; For a time, anyway. You
will want to be getting away from
your old atmosphere, you know, and
1 shall love to have you with me
as long as you wish"
What Kenilworth had said flashed
across her mind, his prediction Of
just this invitation. she fancied
that she caught a flicker of his eye
lids when she glanced at him. For
one brief instant the vision Of John
framed itself among her thoughts,
but it faded quickly when she had
shaken her head a little, to drive
it away.
Any thought of John had become
unpleasant. 1t aroused defiance in
side Of her, Righteousness. Always,
when he appeared in her mind, she
saw herself, at first, going up to
him, her face lifted, her lips held
pleadingly for the greeting that had
been so customary between them.
This sore Of vision hurt, though.
The phrase that ran so often across
her brain would come back
Would that fit in, now" This time
it was the thought Of John com
ing 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 John drove away.
I'm afraid I would be awfully
funny to you," she said to Yvonne,
her excitement at the prospect play
ing in her voice. IT can't be still,
for long, because there is so much
want to do, but can't think Of, that

But I'll help you, perhaps"
Yvonne assured her. IT shall have as
enjoyable time about helping you

There will be motor car TO buy
and I've never got over my fondness
for picking out motor cars; and

Joanna Is Invited to Yvonne's
CHAPTER XI


RI HE flush that deepened the
hues Of Joanna's cheeks, and
the wrinkle in her brow, did
not escape Tvonne when Kenilworth
and the girl returned to the table.
Brandon, too, saw, and divided a
quick glance between the girl and
the man, who had been dancing with
her. Yvonne, in her futtering way
touched the girls hand.
He's been making love to you!
I knew it. Was I right? Didn't he
begin with your eyes?"
Joanna's frown vanished. In the
sheer joy of her closeness to the
woman whose exotic beauty and
fascinating adventures in a world
of hectic romance had made her a
celebrity, her trouble over the
mystery which confronted her in
each new association was quickly
charmed away.
Am 1 supposed to tell?" she
parried, appealing to Kenilworth, she
was nonchalantly lighting a gold
tipped cigaret. He answered easily:
"Someday, my dear, you will wear
your loves like medals on your
breast, for your friends to estimate
and your rivals to envy You may
as well begin now, 1 make my con-
fession. 1 promised to overwhelm
you with my alterations. But you

victims have assured me that he

them why. His reasons are, there

statements of fact, and not batteries.
A woman doesn't class what is said
Of her by a man, who Is In love with
her, as f1attery. She believes it to

"It proves what I've always con-

tiresome to listen to most men go

A waiter, to whom Kenilworth had

responded to his signal. Joanna had
refused to previous offering and had
not been pressed. This time Brand
on quietly reached across the table
and turned up her glass.
XVII HEN Yvonne with a nod to
WI her, had moved away for her
dance with Kenilworth, Jo-
anna turned to Brandon eagerly.
"He seemed to read just what I

one sided and superficial. Fascists
were fond of talking of history and
the historical significance of their
cause, but they never had really
learned the true lesson of history
that only decadent state would
long tolerate and authoritarian re-
gime and that a healthy one would
eventually reject it. Fascists also
never tired of talking of Italian
national traditions, but they seldom
realized that their extreme national
ist ideas were initiated by French
nationalists like Charles Maurras
and Maurice Barres. Authoritarian
ism. Croce declared. was necessarily
transitory and provisional, and the
Fascists were again proving this to
be true by the poverty Of their
creativeness.

last night in an atmosphere of har-

the customary heated discussions of
committees on conference and free
conference. All bills and other busi-

and the evening session was marked
by the formal procedure of ad-

1t was paradoxically the most ex-
travagant and most economic leg
slature in the Territorys history.
1t spent more money than any of
its predecessors but at the same
time it took an unwayering stand
fact it reduced taxes in three in
stances, on mild cured salmon, on
certain classes of automobiles and
licenses for certain professions.
While it was doing this it appro-
priated for all purposes about ST.
100000.
AS in the past, the heaviest ap-
propriations were made for the sup
port of schols, the total for the
Territorial school system being
$74O,070. In addition to that
amount the Alaska Agricultural

ed $163,360. Two special bills were
passed adding s1O.50O to this. one
for Haines and the other for Kenai.
Literacy Supporters Fail.
Two issues OF particular import
ance occupied most of the time
of the session-measures for pro-
tecting the Territory from massl
voting by iliterate Indians and t1
safeguard the pensions from ina
vasion by the Indians. In the latt.
greater success attended the effort
of the Legislators than in the
former
In strictly local sense the op-
ponents of literacy qualification
for voters blocked every move made
by its proponents. Four bills were
introduced in the House which dealt
with the subject either directly or
indirectly. Three were defeated an.
one passed after it had been amend
ed to such an extent that 1t gives
no protection to the First Division
where SO far the only heavy voting
of Indians has occurred.
The ssrier lteracy bill originally
would have prevented to a large
extent mass voting of illiterates all
over Alaska. AS passed, as long as
it remains unchanged, 1t in effect
legalizes all votes cast in former
elections regardless of qualiica-
tions.
A second measure that would
have been equally as effective as
