LAliaa NanAgas to Get Noel Away
 fFoaa tho Gr0up
 A Lillian recosnted the various viands of our camp dinner, dis ttnctly saw . little ripple of dis taAe pass over Philip Veritzen's usually guarded face. But whether it was caused by her mention of the primitively prepared dishes or by her impudent assumption that age was compelling him to watch his dteeStion, I did not know. Probably both angles of her chatter annoyed him. I decided. as noticed that he ate but sparingly of the dinner which left everybody else stuffed to satiety.
 We always plan these camp din- ners, which because of the primitive cookery must be leisurely. long drawn-out affairs, with waits be- tween dishes, so that the finish with coffee and little cakes and watermelon dessert comes at about sundown. Then We find lounging places far enough away from the cooking to enable Katie and Jim to have their own supper and burn up the picnic dishes, and we rest de- lightfully, listening to the surf and watching the sunset over the ocean while the men enjoy their after-din- ner cigars and cigarettes.
 It is the most perfect relaxation imaginable, and generally wrap myself in the blanket and doze off for q little while when darkness settles down over the ocean and l no longer can watch the fascinating surges of surf toward the shore. But upon this evening l permitted my self no such indulgence. I had pro- mised Noel Veritzen that he should have his chance of a word alone with Mary. and as the twilight be- g1n to wane I caught his anxious glances in my direction and hoped that his father was not able to in- terpret them.
 For several minutes ! pondered how I was to manipulate my human chessmen so that l could accomplish my object without my employers

Allen. Kan, Feb. 27. - Florence Mounkea aged 20 years, is . suc- cessful banker-in spite of herself!
 Such financial recognition has 'come to her US cashier of the Allen State Bank that when she tried to resign to go to college the directors met in solemn conclave. petitioned her to stay and raised her salary so high that she had to acquiesce.
 T have always wanted and in- tended to go to college. I never meant to choose banking as my profession. Certainly I never wanted to decide on anything before l fin- hshed college" she says.
 But if the directors want me to remain, suppose I owe them compliance with the request"
 At It , Years
 Miss Mounkes went to work three years ago, when she xradu- ated from high school, because for monetary reasons she was unable at that time to enter college.
 Tt was just chance that I got job as clerk in a bank instead of some other line of work" she says. ITO my surprise I found banking a fascinating game !n- stead of just work. loved 1t and they kept promoting me until l be- came cashier"
 The directors tell you what a born banker Miss Mounkes is. They pronounce her financial judgment so sound that they have given her free rein to pass on cer-

New York. Feb. 2s.-H-Mlle. Anne Marie Vizner, pretty French miss and Louisville beauty. plan- ned the perfect companionate mar riage. but she didn't take into con- sideratipn the plans of her husband to-be.
 She was married to Gordon R. kinsey, Louisville lawyer. and in- tended to sail the next day alone for France, where she recently inherited an estate from her aunt.
 These arrangements didn't suit kinsey and he pointed out that she could take a trip to France any time but that she could go upon only one honeymoon.
 So four hours before her boat sailed she dutifully canceled her reservations. took her husbands arm. and disappeared from New York on her honeymoon. When they return, Mrs. Kinsey will leave on her belated trip to France.
 Miss Vizner came to this country when her brother entered the French consular service. and was educated in Louisville where she met Kinsey.

Seash0re Road Peters
 Arouse Ire of Nahant

Nahant, Mass, Feb. 2S R-An- cient Nahant, whose dreamy beaches and water-swept rocks have made the town . bit of paradise, may take steps to bar betting in auto- mobiles after 10 o'clock nights.
 The miles of roads giving ocean views have been cluttered up over much with parked peters evenings. think the town fathers. So the voters will be asked to vote on a ban on automobile betting after 10 o'clock at night.
 There is nothing, however, in the proposed ordinance against betting on the beach sands.
 Some significance was attached locally to the fact that the day of the town meeting at which the voters will be asked to drive pet ters out of Nahant is March IT, the holiday of St. Patrick. who drove the snakes out of Ireland.

NEARLY EVERY JOB
 fl)RTHE FAIR SEX
"WomanS Place" Is Whenever
 She Chooses to Work

Washington, Feb. 27.-'There's one thing . woman can never be-
 "She can't be the father of . familee-e-e!"
 So ended the chorus of . vaude- ville song current come years ago.
 dealing with the plaint that the girls were taking over nearly every type of job previously occupied only by men.
 Today only about two dozen jobs really remain to be held by the eight and a half million working women. Of 57: occupations listed by the census bureau in the last census, only 35 were not held by any of the sex. but quite a few of the 35 were of
 similar type.
 List is Shrinking Most of these exclusively male
 jobs call for the heaviest manual labor, but some of them surely have been invaded by women since the
 last census. Feminists may acoff at the sugges- tion that there's any job Q woman can't handle as we'll as man. but here are the occupations listed as reporting no woman employed. and they're official:
 Farmer or foreman on a turpen- tine farm: foreman, overseer. ln-
 spector. scaler. surveyor, teamster or
 hauler with lumbermen. or ditcher
 on farm.
 There is no lady boiler maker,
 roofer or slater. ladler or pourer (of
 molten metal). iron puddler. mill l wright, wheelwright. brassmolder.
 founder or caster. cement finisher.
 pressman or plate printer. roller or
 roll hand Gin metals), or structural iron worker.
 No SOldiers-Yet Brakeman, steam railroad con- ductor. locomotive engineer. loco-
 motive fireman. steam railroad
 motorman, railway mail clerk, fore I man or overseer in water transporta- tion-all those still are musculine jobs. And. of course, there is no
 woman soldier, sailor or marine in the service.
 And that, according to the Gen.
 GUS bureau, is all! Doubtless there would be women in some of the heavy mechanical trades if they
 were permitted there by the unions.
 But organizations like the Brother
 hood of Locomotive Engineers still retain the idea that women should spend their lives at the throttle of a
 kitchen range.
 Coal Miners, Too
 There are policewomen and lady coal miners, there are lady osteo- paths and lady taxi drivers. There are women blacksmiths, and
 women brick and stone masons, car penters. paper-hangers, plasterers,
 plumbers, stonecutters, gunsmiths and contractors.
 More than 5000 are listed as authors, editors and reporters; l,7s7 are "c!ergymen;" 1,7S1 are lawyers.
 judges and justices: Al are civil. electrical, mechanical and mining en-
 gineers. One is veterinary surgeon,
 are aeronauts, 7.644 are designers,
 draftsmen and inventors. One hun dred and ninety-seven are keepers of
 race tracks.

 However, women find curves more often suited to their types than straight lines.

Now that Whitefoot the Wood Mouse had his home all fixed in ono of Farmer Browns beehives and there was no more work to be done he began to feel a little lonely. In a back corner of the hive he had built a very comfortable nest. He had built a little tunnel leading from the entrance to it. He knew that in- alde that nest hc would be quite afe from the bees should there hap pen to be a warm day and the bees awaken. He didn't worry about them at all. He used to chuckle to Himself a little when he thought of how he was living there with thou ands of bees just over his head.
 'They could sting me to death in no time at all," thought Whitefoot. If they should ever catch mo where they could get at me. l wouldn't have even q teeny weeny chance. Yet. here I am and there they are. We're ali living togethet in the same house. The only differ ence k they don't know I am here and I do know they are. l wonder what Mrs. Whitefoot would say to it up here"
 This reminded Whitefoot that 1t was a long. long time since he had seen Mrs. Whitefoot. So many things had happened since the never-to-be- forgotten day wher Black Pussy l., ,.t a1 Farmer Browns. There Farmer Browns Boy had rescued him and put up a nice little house for him fnthe Old Orchard and put out food for him. He had liked it so well that he had stayed. Whenever he thought of little Mrs. Whitefoot. somewhere back there in the Green Forest. wondering what had become Of hlln, he had said to himself: Probably she's all right" and straieht-away forgotten her. There had been so much to do and 20 much to See that he hadn't been in the least lonely.
 But now that he had established this fine new home in the beehive on the edge of the old Orchard nearest 10 Farmer Browns dooryard, he began to be lonely. He began by wishing that little Mrs. Whitefoot could see that fine new home. He wanted to brag to her about t. Yes. sir, he wanted to boast. But the more he thought of this the more lonely he hecama. After a while tt wasn't to boast to her about the new home. but to have her there with him, that he wanted to see her.
 "Oh, dear" said Whitefoot. tits a long. long journey back to the Green Forest It is dangerous jour ney, too, for a little fellow like me. I might be seen by Hooty the OTl or Spooky the ScrrecG owl or Reddy Fox or Old Man coyote. It makes me shiver just to think of taking such a long trip. Yes. sir. it makes me shiver and 1t makes me shake. It makes me qUiver and it makes me quake. ] am scared to death at the very thought. But to go 1 really think ought"
 Whitefoot tried to forget how much he wanted little Mrs White foot. The more he tried 10 forget the more he thought about it. Often 1t is that way. The surest way of remembering a thing is trying 10 forget it. So, of course. the more hc thought about it the more lonely he became. He was no longer getting any joy out Of his new winter home. He wanted to share 1t. And the only one in all the. Great World he wanted 10 share it with was little Mrs. Whitefoot.
