INsTALLMENT XVI

Above the metallic roar OF the sub
way a brasSy voice shouted "One
Hundred and Twenty-f1fth Street,
: and, like a succession of enormous
exclamation points flung for emplla-
sis after the words, :. series OF posts
flickered across LiSSa'S vision. Grad
ually the perpendicular bars lessen
ed their speed until finally each eX-
hibited the numerals 1z5 in black
against the glaring white. Behind the
girl the hurting darkness fell away.
The train shot out into pool OF light
and came to rest with jerk that
precipitated her through a newspaper
and against hostile breast. Doors
Sprapg open with mechanical pre-
cision, and with sigh of relief pack
ed white and black broke their en-
forced common imprisonment, the
Negroes pouring out on the platform,
the whites apprcpriating their places

Nth resentment and relief On the
platform the dark mass heSitated for
moment, drew deep breathS, stretch
ed limbs, then, like a~breaker that
has found the shore, it lifted, caught
LISA up on its crest, hurled her be-
fore it up the stairway, and deposited
her breathleSs, but triumphant, on
the pavement. Saturday afternoon

der Salinski behind her-his Grudg-
ing word of praise singing in her ears.
The day was warm, but the sun
lacked the torrid pressure that ener-
waited LISA during the Southern sum-
mers. Over her head the sky was no
longer the throbbing cobalt OF a
Charleston noon, but thin ultra
marine that seemed to lessen the
power of gravitation and lift her
along with new buoyance. She
swung east in the direction Of her
home In her new liberating environ
2ment an inherent elegance in her
carriage and manner that had inn
pressed her Charleston reighbors as
merely amusing lent her distinction
and gave her that air of Self-aSSur-
ance which in Harlem differentiates
thu coSmopolite from the newly ar
rived provincial. She was clad brief
" in dark blu. tailored silk. The col
our was a concession to Manila, the
brevity to Harlem. A scarf Of f1amingo
red was knotted loosely about her
throat, and small jaunty hat Of the
same shade fitted closely about her
head. Below the dress a rather as
Atonishing length of champagne silk
Stocking was evident. and. symbolic
of her complete emancipation. these
terminated in pair of red high-leel-
ed pumps. She carried a modish
vanity case. and small umbrella in
the accenting colour was pendent
from one elbow.
With that power to evoke memory
which contrast possesses to an even
greater extent than similarity, the
alien setting switched the girls
thoughts back to her last eventful
night in Charleston. She had been a
member of the Grayson family for ten
days, and with her faculty for ex-
polling from her mind all that caus-
ed her discomfort, the tragedy OF
Buttons death and her hurried de-
parture were already as completely
dissociatei from her life as printed

Now it is said that Alexander W. Legge, chairman
d the federal farm board at a salary Of SO 600 per
year. will resign and return to his old Job at the same
old salary Of 100000 per year. A California foot
ball writer printed the story that Knute Rockne
would desert Notre Dame and accept a position with
e handsome salary on the Golden Coast. Knute
branded the tale as an absurd fasehood woven out
OF whole cloth and fringed with reportorial imagina-
ton. His rejoinder should quiet the California sports
artist for the remainder Of the season. Knute knows

Splendid Showing for the
Newspaper

A survey Of the publishing industry by Halcey
Stewart and company Of Chicago shows the last de-
cade has seen an increase of 80 per cent in news
paper circulation and 90 per cent in newspaper adj
v~ertising revenue. Daily circulation average for the
country was 44.000. 600 in 1929 with a total advertising
revenue Of $500, 600 900.
Newspapers and magazines. the survey shows, are
delivered to the reader at a price less the cost Of
production. Advertising revenue making up the diff
