Dorothy rose with a shrug and
took her hat off.
"All right, I'll do it for your sake.
But I'm not crazy about the role"
Very reluctantly Dorothy went to
the door. II never meant to meet
him, Lila, but since it is the only
way to save you, suppose I've got

In the drawing room Jack paced
restlessly while waiting for Mrs.
Ware. He felt he must do some
thing to find the truth about the
bewildering situation.
He paused at window. The
opening of door brought him up
short, and he turned quickly. The
room was rather. dim after the
bright sunlight in the street at
which he had been staring.
Mrs. Ware, must ask you
pardon"-he started. He saw a
slim pretty girl, a girl with candid
smiling eyes.
Pardon me, I wished to speak
with Mrs. Ware"
Dorothy was so unlike the Mrs.
Ware" Lila had described that
Farquahar was bewildered.
Dorothy put him at his ease and
assured him that Lila was only jok-
ing when she described her as semi
invalid.

He was thinking that she gave
him the impression of GOODNESS and

her soft, pretty, fashionable ex-

He felt that here was one young
woman who would never fail a
friend or a sweetheart. Herbert

He took the hand she extended.
1t was small and cool and firm. He
bent over it, murmured his thanks
for the interview she had accorded
him, and was gone.
Dorothy stood in the middle of the
floor, as he had left her. There was
a curious expression in her pretty
eyes.

TINE American girl has beauti-
Il full feet, and the surprising art
shown in every variety of American
footwear is worthy of her. At no
period in the history of dress have
girls feet been more prominent, and
consequently requiring greater skill
in management.
Therefore, the Yexed question of
what to do gracefully with the
hands has now added to it another
and more difficult one, graceful use
of the feet.
To eliminate any extreme posi-
ton of the feet in walking, if the
habit is abnormal in either toeing
in or toeing out, practice the straight
foot line.
By this I mean to walk along a
straight line in the design on a
carpet. See that the feet are planted
straight and properly on that line
and continue so throughout the ex-
ercise, made a few minutes at a
time.
In addition, thought and atten-
ton should be given the straight
line principle in general walking.
The fault will soon vanish.
have had to give exercises in
this same direction to many aSpir-
ants for my ballet, who came to me
from over-technical masters.
This usually results from over
training in the so-called turn out
position" necessary to certain
degree in toe dancing, but a great
fault in interpr etative or other
forms of dancing.
This faultaffects equally the natu-
raj beauty of walking or positions
of the feet in repose.
I have seen people sit in a bril-
liant ballroom when the feet and
hand positions absolutely marred an
otherwise beautiful picture they
would have made.
Relaxed repose and grace were
the things needed. But they were
leaning with elbows on knees and
with their toes turned in, or some
equally ugly position.
1t is a strange truth that emo
tons which may be concealed in a
persons face find unconsciouSly
telltale expression in the feet.

Pat collapsed then and Tony
famed him furiously with scrap
of paper. When he was able to
storm again, he seized her wrist
and took the bit of cardboard from
her whats this?"
"Just-just my pilots license"
Tony admitted, still in her meek
est little-girl voice. Then, her
voice growing rich with the thrill
of it: ooh, Pat! Just think
I'm real, honest-to-goodness
aviator! 1 won't be called an
'aviatrix.' The first in this state,
Pat-the very first girl aviator!
Aren't you proud of me?"
Pat Tarver put his head in his
hands and groaned in very genu-
inc misery. Tony wiggled into his
lap again and consoled him, as
only Tony could. There's really
no danger, darling Pat. You
know I wouldn't risk getting all
bunged up myself. Flying isn't
any more dangerous than driving
a car, honestly! Cross my heart!
Sh-h-h! Here comes Peg. Not
word to her, or I'll be clapped
into nunnery!"
She was glad of a chance to es-
cape from the spectacle of Pats
misery.
"Just look there! A run in them
new SIS silk stockings!" Peg Tarver
detained her daughter fretfully. "At
this rate we'll be bankrupt in a
year."
Sorry, Pegl" Tony answered,
with unusual docileness. But it
won't matter about the run now.
I'm only going to dash over to see
Crystal I've just realized that
Sundays nearly gone and I haven't
seen her all day."
Faith admitted Tony. Crystal?
Why, she said she was going some
where with you. She left an hour
ago. And there was sudden acute
worry in Faiths brown eyes.

timidity may be revealed in hands
and feet by twisting and restless
movements, though the countenance
is calm.
Proper pose of the feet in relaxed
graceful position while sitting, and
when standing to shift the weight
of the body occasionally and easily
from one foot to the other, will give
a touch of elegance to any figure.

DONOVAN
VIEW

Another drive by some OF
che 5000 per diem employees
of the District of Columbia to
be given the benefits of the re.
tirement law got under way
today.
Major Daniel ]. Donovan. District
Auditor. transmitted to the District
Commissioners a report that add
tionaI legislation is necessary, in his
opinion, before the law can apply to
per diem employees.
VIII Seek Amendments
The Commissioners have made
known that they will seek amend
ments to the retirement law when
Congress reconvenes. So that certain
classes can be placed under its pro-
visions.
Major Donovan recommends con-
ferences between secretary OF the
Board of Commissioners, the auditor
and department heads with view
10 learning whether or not the per
diem employees want the change.
Since coming under the provisions
of the law would mean a deduction
Of az per cent from the weekly
wages of the workers, Major Dolo-
van says that some time ago the law
did not prove attractive to the bulk
OF the employees.
Sees Way Out
In certain cases where service of
per diem employees has been con-
tinuous. the auditor believes way
may be found to bring them under
the operation of the present law. He
cites decisions proving that the Com
missioners have no right to accept
any and all employees who may elect
TO come under the law.
They may be accepted as classes,
but not as individuals, he says.

accidents every week, accord

This conclusion is reached by a
study of the accident reports dur.
ing August and September, the two
months in which the law has been
in full working order.
There were nearly 1900 injuries
reported during the month of Sep.
TENDER and deaths. During Au-
gust there were deaths and LES
injuries.
Thus for the nine weeks of the
two months there were nine deaths
and about 2.400 injuries reported.
Most of the injuries are OF I

result in a loss of working time.

Exact figures for the injuries
during September are not yet avail,

The final total is expected TO reach
about 1900, thus substantiating the
conclusion reached In August that
there are about 1900 injuries from
