Yet so few girls realize this Iact

killed 1t with that deplorable habit
Of taking it OUT on the boy friend.
Suppose you've been running around

Charlie appears in the doorway,
beaming with pleasure. and you fairly
growl at him,
Yes, maybe you are O poor rundown
little thing-just a bundle Of nerves
but still that isn't sufficient excuse Tor
what you do to the poor boy friend
that evening.
You don't allow him a moments

manner, to which the others respond
ed with more or less enthusiasm.
There was one other woman present
and a man called Ronny. He was
tall and blond. with a small mustache
on his upper lip. His grooming was
faultless. from the cut Of his collar to
his perfectly spatted feet. and Leila
could not help noticing that when
ever Mona addressed him there was
a curious note in her voice not pres
ent when. she spoke to the others.
Once Leila intercepted a swift in
terchange OF glances between the
two, and in that moment Mona's blue
eyes wavered almost shyly. Leila
wondered curiously If there could be
anything of a romantic nature be-
tween Mona and this man. Somehow
she could not visualize Mona in love.
She was too intensely selfish to care
for anything outside of her own beau
tiful self.
During all this time, Leila has been
passing sandwiches and cakes, or
standing back of Mona's chair while
she poured fresh tea. She was con-
graduating herself that her ordeal was
almost over, when the outer door
slammed, and a moment later Rich

Marcia laughed, and Leila felt the
eyes of, every one fixed upon her. At
the same time, Mona with perfect
nonchalance handed her the cup OF
tea that she had just poured for Rich

For just a minute he felt little bit
lonely. Then in the excitement of
going exploring he forgot all about
Nanny. He first made a little passage
for himself underneath the dry sea-
weed along the old log where he was
making his home. 1t was just big
enough for him to run along. Then
he cut little path down to the edge
Of the marsh. All along the edge Of
the marsh were masses of. dry sea-
weed which had f1oated in there on q
high tide and been stranded. Never
had Danny found a place where it
was so easy to keep under cover. He
promptly started in to make little
passages underneath some of these
masses of seaweed. They were only
short distances apart all along the

running from one to another of these
patches Of seaweed Danny had to ex-
pose himself only for moment.
