couldn't remember when they first
started taking long walks together
almost since the day he and his
mother, Emma Keith, had moved
into the fiat next door. From the
very beginning he told her his hopes
and how he intended to make it up
to I'm" for the way she'd sacrificed
educating him.
He told her about the girls he
liked. There was that angel in his
class at college. Judith listened in
q soft, understanding way. When
the angel passed, it was the little
blonde typist in the law offices where
he got his first job. Then it was the
stately Miss Kane. He was very
glowing about them all, talking to
Judith as though she were $50 years
old.
But last night he came over all

from her hands with a breezy: Gee.

you."

1t was pure luxury to loiter undis-

drew the black oil cloth cover over
her typewriter-absently. lost in a
great sweetness.
The door opened. a voice laughed,

Judiths face. She blinked as one

Then she jumped up with a bound
of Joy, mumbled glowingly. Sandy!
OF all things!''
A tall. lightsome girl caught
Judith's hands. She filed the room
with vividness; with charm as
though the sun had come up unex-
pectedly or a song trilled. She talked
gaily with little throaty laughs, stop
ping three or four times to kiss
Judiths flushed cheeks.
She was Sandy Mcneil. Judith's
cousin, the most captivating person
Judith knew. Everything that was
romantic or unusual, she coupled
with Sandy.
Judith's mother was a Mcneil.
From infancy Evelyn Moore's chill
dren perceived that this was an
honor-a kind of klngly privilege.
They were aware that Evelyn Nc
Neil had stepped down wosfully
when she married their father. Mrs.
Moore never allowed the self-effac-
ing husband to forget that she had
given up everything-made a COM
plete sacrifice of her life" to become
his wife.
THE greatest compliment she
ever paid her daughters was
to say: You're McNeil!' In
the same way she charged to the
fathers heritage all the unpleasant
traits that cropped out in her chill
dren. Mrs. Moore was a colorful.
domineering woman. Her children
resented her tyrannies, yet they
adored her; they hung on her words,
quoting her as though she was In
fallible. Argument ended when one
or the other could bolster her cause
with: Mamma said so!' So they
regarded it almost an insult to be
told with aggrieved impatience: 81

In Sandy was concentrated all the
gay distinction; all the beauty OF the

full figure. She had white skin, its
pallor made haunting by the intense
black Of her eyebrows; the intense
red Of her hair. More than this, she
seemed to move in color and music
Her visits to the city were the
thrills OF Judith's existence. They
had become friends three years pre-
vious when Sandy's father wrote
to his sister inviting the youngest

daughter, who happened to be Ju-
dith, to his home in Santa Barbara
for a vacation. Since then every
month or so Sandy dashed into the
office where Judith worked and they
went off together on a lark that for
Judith was a priceless adventure.
She loved walking into the Palace
with Sandy. She felt proud as
though she were displaying some
rare exotic flower. She would whls-
per eagerly: "Sandy-the way men

The head waiter knew Sandy. He
ushered her to a table in the very
center OF the room. She accepted
tribute as a queen might.
Now Sandy drew off her gloves.
Judith watched her. Finally she
reached over and touched Sandys
hand where a diamond the size of
an almond glowed.
Sandy laughed: ooh. I forgot to
tell you. I'm somewhat engaged"
Like taking glass of water! AS
though one became engaged every
ten minutes!
Judith, tense with her own
emotions. asked softly: "who? Is he

Sandy's brows raised whimsically:

"GRAUSTARK" AT PALACE

"Graustark" has come to life. The magic witchery of intrigue and TO- nance which flowed so freely from the pen of George Barr McCutcheon has been imbued with the colors of reality and Graustark the kingdom, and the story. lives upon the screen.
 And 1t Is fitting that all filmdom s great Norma Talmadge should ap pear in the starring role as the beautiful princess Yetive.
 The production is particularly mo- table in three things:
 First, that it takes Norma Tal- madge out of the character roles which has one her added reknown in Secrets and "The Lady" and brings her once more to her admir- CTS as the lovely gracious, romantic character they like her best to be.
 Second. that it brings to life one of the most celebrated novels of contemporary fiction "Graustark" which has been read by millions.
 Third, that of all the photoplays ever made from books, none has more religiously followed the origi- nal story.
 The vaudeville bill consists of Amazon and Nile" Europes sen sational novelty, Hal and Hazel Langton in Marketing, Shean, Philips and Anger in Three fool ish flashes" Three cheers in Com icalities" and the shurdone Vries & Co.,. in dance classic4

RESCUE WORKERS STILL ARE TRYING
Five Men Trapped in Kentucky
 Mine Not Yet Freed

Salem, Ky. Aug. 9 GP - Rescue workers seeking to free five men trapped since Thursday in the Hud- son mine of the Zinc and Spar com- pany near here today redoubled their efforts with the hope of reach ing the imprisoned men before nightfall.
 Three days and nights of feverish working apparently had brought the rescue squad little nearer to the trapped miners, but a pump capa- ble of lifting four hundred gallons of water, mud or sand minute was to be placed in operation today.
 The pump, engineers said, would reduce the level of water in the mine to such an extent that the cave-in might be reached.
 During the past three days two drills were used in an attempt to open a way of communication to the five men so that food might be passed to them. A flint-limestone rock formation, however, proved
  stop work at a depth of sixty feet, only half the estimated distance to the entombed men.
 Several crews have been working with pick and shovel to sink a six foot square shaft to the drift. A depth greater than forty feet had been reached early today.
 The fate of the five miners is un- known. Hope is held out that some or all may have survived the long ordeal underground, but many per- sons at the scene point out that the waters from the lake which broke through and flooded the mine con- tinue to pour into the digging and that thereis only a remote possibili- ty that the men still survive.
 A company of national guards men is guarding the mine property, buildings and entrances from curi- osity seekers.
