 "Of course. I'll go with you!" "Please-" Gypsy stopped her. "Please don't bother. Abbie. I'd much rather you didn't. Really. mean it. I'll be all right as soon as I'm outside"
 "But, my dear child, can't let you go alone like this"
 "You will If I ask you to. won't you, Abbie? Please!"
 "It doesn't seem right" Abbie began, but she did not rise to fol- low as Gypsy turned away.
 The hot air struck the girls face almost like a blow as she stepped out on the street. It was the same intense heat from which she had sought refuge, and yet Gypsy did not give it thought. She did not notice the direction she took but starting walking.
 The Pine Grove inn last Monday. A blue dress. "If it were anyone but Abbie." Gypsy thought, "l wouldn't believe it. I'd think they wanted to make trouble. Abbie couldn't do that. She wouldn't! Oh but even Abbie should know never wear blue!"
 Marcia Phillips face danced be- fore her. Marcia wore blue divinely Gypsy had seen her go past the house in blue frocks dozen times So Jim had lunched at the Pine Grove inn with Marcia Phillips. And I thought I knew him SC well!" Gypsy told herself bitterly II was so sure of his honesty. Sc sure he'd come and tell me himself Tiff Marcia was right when she said that he loved her! Oh, Jim Jim. how could you!"
 Tears were binding her. She paused to brush them aside. What if people did notice that she had been weeping? Jim already had made a spectacle of her. Lunchine with Marcia Phillips at the Pine Grove Inn!
 She would go away. of course People could believe 1t was a vaca' tion trip if they wished. She would go away and make 1t as easy fol Jim to divorce her as possible. Or she would divorce him. The whole thing was settled. She would tel him tonight.
 It was relief to come to a deci. sion. Gradually Gypsy became aware that she had been walking in the wrong direction. She wal on the east side of town in neigh. borhood she did not know.

SISTER MARY'S
 KITCHEN
NEA Service Writca

We've all heard of the bride who started housekeeping. with three dozen guest towels and three single dish towels and quickly learned that dish towels are as essential as guest towels.
 And so it is in all the aspects of housekeeping; the kitchen equipment must be adequate and suitable if the bride is to enjoy her new experience as mistress in her own home to the utmost. It's in the kitchen that the bride is put upon her mettle and must learn her spucs," so to speak. If she does not have the necessary tools for her work, she finds it twice as difficult to gain the results she wants. This is as true for the bride who will not do her own cook ing as for the one who does. The home and it's equipment determines its efficiency. Before you make out your list oi kitchen utensils, take stock" oi yourself, your husband and your cir cumstances. Have you been much feted during your engagement and must you return in kind? Or will most of your meals be prepared for two with an occasional extra couple for an informal dinner? Will you cook in kitchenette or an honest-to- goodness kitchen? All these factors influence the kind and type of uten- SilS chosen.
 Meals for Two
 Undoubtedly, most of your cook ing will be done for two. Materials are wasted and success cannot be assured if sauce pans and spiders and baking dishes are too large. A cup of sauce made in q two guar. pan is lost. Two rashers of bacon and eggs cooked in an 8-inch spider are next to impossible. The same holds true regarding pudding pans and baking dishes. However. beware of too small utensils. for these invite boiling-over and spilling-ove when mixing.
 You will find a rather bewilder- ing array of materials offered in all kinds of utensils. Glass. iron, steel, enamelware, cast and sheet alum mum, wood and earthenware all find places in the kitchen. In many arti- cles. the materials can be used inter- changeably, personal preference be- ing the deciding factor. The use of SOIIie utSnSllS ueteTIlllleS tHe hlHu Ol materials chosen.
 Standard equipment that will be in daily use will prove most satis- factory if made of material that will withstand heat and rough us age. Iron, steel and cast aluminurn are practically indestructible and utensils made of these materials will actually Hast a lifetime" The price and weight will carry with the metal. Steel does not hold the heat as the other two metals do. but it is quick to heat through and excellent for quick cooking and hurry-up dishes. It is also light to handle and easy to care for.
 Sheet aluminium, enamel ware, glass and the heat-proof pottery are not affected by heat-unless they are abused-but they will not | stand hard knocks. Aluminium will dent. glass and pottery will break and enamelware will crack and chip if carelessly handled. However, these materials are easy to keep clean. light to use and in the case of glass and rottery can be sent straight from the oven to the table.

LOST CITIZENSHIP
PLEA IS REFUSED
Two Refusing to Bear Arms
IRE Denied Rehearing
by Supreme Court.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Pleas that the Supreme Court re-
consider its stand that an applicant for
citizenship must take an oath to fight.
If necessary, for this country today
failed.
The decision ended hope that Prof
Douglas c. Macintosh Of Yale and
Marie Averil Bland, former war nurse,
might become citizens without taking
an unqualified oath to bear arms II
called upon to do so by the Govern
ment. Both are Canadians.
The five justices who combined to re-
fuse citizenship to the pair last term
and the four who dissented, including
Chief Justice Hughes, passed today
upon the petitions for rehearing.
Hughes Delivers Opinion.
The Chief Justice, son of Baptist
minister, delivered the dissenting opin-
ion last term. Many ranked it with the
famous dissent of Justice Holmes in the
similar case of Rosika Schwimmer,
Hungarian writer.
Justice Sutherland, in the majority
opinion. said the issue had been settled
by the refusal Of the court to allow Miss
Schwimmer citizenship.
DR.. Macintosh served overseas dur
ing the World War, but in taking the
oath he insisted that he be permitted
to decide whether war was just before
he took up arms.
Miss Bland, now a resident of New
York, nursed American soldiers In
France after the close of the war and
said she would be willing TO go to the
trenches to nurse soldiers in the event
of another conflict.
Would Not Bear Arms.
She said, however, that she was not
personally willing to bear arms in time
of war.
John W. Davis, former Democratic
nominee for the presidency. and coun-
sci for DR.. Macintosh said the decision
If allowed to stand meant that no alien
could obtain citizenship unless he agreed
to fight in any war, just or unjust.
Counsel for Miss Bland argued that
the decision imposed limitations on
religious liberty in advance of congress
sional action.
