Almost every one who belonged to
the Marlboro Country Club managed
to attend the regular Saturday night
dinner dances.
At one of the larger tables this
night sat Faith and Bob Hathaway,
Cherry and Nils Jonson, and Rhoda
Jonson with George Pruitt.
The orchestra blared suddenly into
a fox trot.
Cherry, in golden-yellow chiffon
that almost matched her golden eyes
and intensified the gold tints in her
copper and-gold hair, sprang to her
gold-slippered little feet and held up
her small arms to her giant of a
husband.
odd, isn't it, how infatuated
with Nils, Cherry still is after six
months of marriage" George Pruitt
grinned at Faith. 1.-THE most IN
scupulous little f1irt in Stanton has
settled down into the most adoring
wife.
"a pretty long journey from Myr-
tie st. to the Marlboro Country
Club, but the two girls of the Lane
family have made it. Happy, Faith?
Faiths serene brown eyes smiled
into George Pruitt's homely, kind
face. "Frighteningly happy. George.
There must me a catch in it some
where. But look at Crystal"
And she nodded slightly toward a
table for four, at which Bobs cousin
sat alone, a determinedly bright
smile fixed upon her flushed face,
her wide, hazel eyes seeming to say:
I'm alone for just a moment. I'm
really awfully popular"
Poor kid! She dosn't quite make
the grade, does she?"
George" Faith said earnestly,
leaning toward him slightly, "I want
you to do something for me. Go
ask Crystal to dance. And while
you're dancing say all the pretty
things to her that you can think
of-well, what you'd say to me if
I'd let you," she laughed. Make
her happy, George. She's-pathetic,
and sweet and sound underneath.
Then introduce her to three or

four of your friends. I want this
first party of hers in Stanton to be
a success. I'll go over to her table
with you and introduce you-tell
her that you are dying to meet her,
and all that. Tony's dancing with
Dick Talbot and that little cad, Lon
Edwards, has bolted. Poor Crystal!"
Whats wrong with Crystal?"
George wondered aloud. She's
almost pretty, better looking than
lots Of girls who are rushed madly.
Isn't Tony Tarver a knockout,
Faith?
Makes me think of a line in a
poem, Shining and tall and fair and
straight Gallant is the adjective
that really describes her. Blue
eyes, black hair, skin as white as
marble-and magnet in that slim
body of hers that draws every eve
in the room to her. She's going to
make history in Stanton, Faith"
