CHAPTER SEVEN
THE BEAUX ARTS BALL

Smartly dressed in a grass green
ensemble and carrying new yellow
travelling bag, Verna looked more
beautiful than ever as she descend
ed from the taxicab in front of Mar
got Yancey's studio on West Ninth
Street, New York City, on the edge
OF Greenwich Village. The chauffeur
and two Oh three paSserSby stared in
admiration as She tripped lightly up
the steps o. the impressive brown
stone fronted house and sounded the
polished brass knocker.
Verna's mind was a whirl Of new
impressions, a tumble of skyscrapers,
traffic, city noises, a newly expert
enced courtesy unknown to her in
her Southern hometown, and the
memory of her long journey from
West Virginia. As she waited for
the door to be answered, she Won
dered what her reception would be,
whether she would live in this grand
house or not, how soon before she
would see Harlem, the Negro capital.
Verna, the Model
Miss Yancey answered the door
herself, arrayed in artists smock, her
fingers stained with paints.
why, Verna!" she exclaimed,
@come right in, child. I had no idea
that you would be here so soon. Take
your things right up stairs. You
came at the right time; I've got a
South Sea illustration and I'll use
you for the model"
ooh, Miss Yancey," the dark girl
replied, II don't know that I can be

Nonsense! 1t really isn't anything.
All you've got to do is to sit still in
the position put you. It'll be an
excellent beginning for you, Verna.

around here with my friends and
you'll be paid seventy-five cents an
hour"
Verna mumbled her thanks, and
tears of gratitude stood in her eyes
as she unpacked her things in the
little charming bedroom to which Miss
Yancey assigned her on the third
floor. All of her dreams seemed to
be coming true. She unconsciously
pinched herself to see if she were
really awake.
She found the job of posing to be
very simple, but exacting. For long
hours she sat on pedestal or leaned
on support while Margot Yancey
sketched and painted her in various
costumes and poses, and often with
out any costume at all.
"Oh, really now" the statuesque
Margot would drawl in her nearest
approach to enthusiasm, "you are
quite ideal, Verna."
Sometimes while they were at
work, friend or two would drop in
for chat Invariably they raved
when they saw Verna'S exquisite
figure. In a fortnight three or four
artists were clamoring for her serv-

And then there were the enthusi-

liked her for the perfect specimen
of humanity that she was and she
learned to appreciate her charms
even more than ever before. These
people, working with the most beau

again that she possessed the most

seen, so she had to believe it.
She assumed a new, laughter bear

enhanced her beauty hundred times.

Await Decision
On Air Mail

Concerted action is being taken
by those interested in the future of
RI Centro to have the Imperial
county airport designated as "A port

route, soon to be established from
San Diego through Imperial Valley
and east. 1t is expected that de-
cision will soon be made as to what
fields will be designated, as landing
places for the air mail planes and
il is of the utmost Importance that
Imperial Valley be designated as a
stopping place as the shortening in
time of mail reaching the east will
mean a saving of thousands of
dollars monthly to the shippers of
this section.
The FL Centre Chamber of Com
mersc has sent kilograms to all
those who may influence the dccis-
ion as to stop and active interest
has been taken by Postmaster Jen-
kins of NEl Centre, Assemblyman

lev may be served by the Southern

SWINGS PLAN
FOR EXPOSITION
MEETS APPROVAL

Officials of the FL Centre Cham
Der of Commerce expressed them
selves today as heartily in accord
with the recommendation of Con-
gresham Phil Swing for a great ma
tional exposition to be given in Los
Angeles in 1887 to celebrate the COM
pletion of Boulder dam. When the
matter of an exposition in honor of
this event was first considered, a
number of months ago, the El Centro
chamber endorsed the plan, along
with number of other western COM
munities, provided the plan met with
the approval of Los Angeles. That
city is now considering an exposi-
ton which will he nationa lin its
scope and the recommendation for
such an exposition has been made by
Representative Swing.
1t is believed by the FL Centre
chamber officials that such an eX-
position would be great benefit to
Imperial Valley for the reason that
this section, as the greatest bene-
ficiary of the dam, would draw the
attention of the world to our agri
cultural resources and enormous
production as result Of publicity
obtained through exposition displays
and the worldwide publicity which
would be given Imperial county pri'
or to and during the exposition celc-
bration. r. b. Whitelaw, president
Of the FL Centre chamber made the
following statement today: mot
only would Imperial Valley bring
its agricultural wealth to the atten
tion of the entire world by such
an exposition, but thousands of Wis
itors would be drawn to Imperial
county during the actual time tho
exposition was in progress and 1T il
safe to state that many thousands
Of substatianl investors in this com
munity would result from the ex
position and consequent visitors in
Imperial Valley"
The local chamber favors urging
state and federal participation il
the proposed exposition and it il
believed that if all chambers of th'
valley cooperate in this matter sucl
participation will result in an ex
position which will surpass any ma
tional exposition yet given and viii
bring publicity and prosperity t.
/ the entire Southwest.
