By Marqery Hale

'Nancy will be glad to have us."
 The doors of the house were locked and everybody left.
 Sue, glancing back down the road, at a house silhouetted so darkly against the spring sky. shuddered. Sarah, crowded into the roadster with Jack and Sue, didn't look back.
 T wish I hadn't made Clifford Life is so queer. We all make foolish moves, and they get tam gled up in the plans of everyone else. I wish I had gone away last week."
 "No, you don't,' Jack differed. "Sybil would have shot him some time. And maybe we wouldn't have had the proof that we have now. The slate's cleaned up"
 And what will happen to herr Sue asked. For just second she remembered the days when she had been new in Jacks office and Sybil had attempted a proprietary interest in him. The swimming party when Sybil had tried to make her feel that she was on the out- side of a magic circle that had always known the right games to, play. The party where Sybtl had |accused her of stealing her crystal beads. The scales had been bal anced at last. What will happen Ito Sybil?" she repeated her ques- tion. forgetting that she had just asked it.
 "shell get a life sentence in prison now. The case automatical- iy settles itself. Sybii is out or the scene from now on"
 Out of the scene! A strange relief crept through Sues body.
 At the Merryman home Mrs Merryman was already making coffee as stimulant for the ragged nerves of the group. Sarah drop ned into a chair, suddenly tired. Then she saw Ted in the room. She made herself straighten up' He thought she was gay and heart less and careless. Very well. She would be.

 Since that glorious day this young brown-eyed, dark-haired girl has forged ahead. Her improvement has been steady through successive films, reaching its height in her lates, An American Tragedy" in which she plays one of the two leading feminine roles.
 Frances, thoroughly modest, al-l ways has considered herself just an average girl. As a student at Chicago she classed herself as such. And when she looked at the girls around here when she was just an extra, she wondered what she had besides her deter imitation that would enable her to rise above them.
 ferred to as "beautiful but dumb" As a former student at the Untver- sity of Chicago myself, I know that the light-headed ones are weeded out rather quickly. And Frances still was in good standing when she left to come out here for a vacation that has turned into a career.
 The names of two more of the six leading beauties chosen by the fa- nous directors for NEA Service and the Democrat will be revealed to- morrow. .. One has been in the { Ian s~n a Mack Scnnett bathing beauty. The other is young Mexican girl whose rise was meteoric. Y. Can you guess?

YoUR CHILDREN
By Olive Roberts Barton 9I9sl eY NEA ssRvlcG INC:

Someone is always taking the joy out of life. He tells us that sunsets are only reflected rays of light on cloud yapor, that birds were originally reptiles and no more to be admired than the liz- ards that crawl on the ground. He finds no magic in spring and denies that we have a soul.
 And he tells little children that there are no fairies. He laughs at the idea of elves dancing in the moonlight. of fays sleeping in roses and tiny queens going calling on butterfly steeds.
 This joy-killed has lot of com- pany these days, for so very many people are of the opinion that chill dren should not be read to or told about things that are not so.
 More Than ProtOplasm
 We'll, for one refuse to believe that life ic mere protoplasm or comics matter, that we are only punches of electrons that grouped in another way would be 8 chunk Of iron or a fish. I have come to the place that I am tired of facts, of science, of robots, and reasons.
 want my fairies. always have had them and I still love them and believe in them.
 What is a fairy?
 It is something just little love- Her than anything we know about. It can do all the things we cannot do. It is kinder, sweeter, tenderer than any hur! being.
 Must Not Be Commonplace
 Above everything else it is very, very beautiful and lives only in magic places. If it had any com monplace associations, our minds would drag it down to level with ourselves.
 Little children's minds need de- veloping in many ways. True they need reason and memory trained, and emotionally, all the graces.
 But they need still more. They need elasticity the ability to stretch out beyond ordinary things to realm just over the border line of knowledge and vision. We call it imagination, but I think the term falls short. Reverence? Per more care and coaxing that any other flower in the garden of the mind.
 We Need Imagination
 We are all potential poets, art ists, musicians. Were we not we wouldn't be worth the powder to blow us up. Children love life be- cause they are all these things and more. They make magic of every thing. There is no dead-line to them between fact and fancy.
 Don't rob the children. Your fairies never hurt you. Wouldn't you give anything to have them back? Better to have loved fairies and lost, as we eventually do- than never to have loved them at all.

 "How about 1t, Partner?" she said softly aloud. "If were 40 would I be able to admit that pos- sibly I'm wrong?"
 But she wasn't 40. and when she went back to the living room and saw Irene curled up in a pictur- esque pose in one corner of the sofa while Prentiss sat beside her (like Q charmed bird. Beryl thought). all her philosophizing vanishing. Her disgust welled up stronger than ever, and she was sorry that she hahd brought a third glass for Irene.
 The little minx shoud be spanked and put to bed if she got what she deserved, Beryl thought. But Irene was years too old for that and one had to treat her as grownup.
 Prentiss drank the lemon-mint and ate the thin brown cookies. Beryl knew that it might as well have been cider and doughnuts for all the difference he'd have known.
 She wished he would go for she was very tired. The party had been strenuous one for her. Other

 MT Lester, who had been stand ling as though in a daZe, suddenly snapped into action. The lethargy left his face. His eyes blazed. Stop! You can't touch her!

She was the impetus of 1t all. If she hadn't come along Sybil and Jack would have been married ." Sybil's voice. drawling her words now. interrupted her father.

 Those waiting in the living room could hear the crunch of their feet on the gravel of the drive, then the starting of the engines, the rumble of the cars as they swung down the road to town.
 It was very quiet in the Becker living room. The cherry-red fire sparkled on the hearth, and the lamps threw shining glamor across the floors. Under it all tho memory of something sinister and alarming lurked.
 Echoes of the tragedy were play ing in the room, no less real be- cause they were mute. Ghosts stalked.

Grace and Jean were packing for the club convention. It was to be at distant city. The convention would last four days. The program announced group luncheons, com mittee breakfasts, motor ride In the mountains, Q banquet and reg ular meetings.
 Neither one of the women were speakers so that they did not have to consider one costume that would be effective on a platform. But just what should they take?
 Jean was all for taking many clothes, much underwear, toilet ar- ticles galore. But Grace, who was a more experienced traveller, said. "No. We can always buy things like stockings. handkerchiefs, toilet accessories if we find we need them. Let's not go so heavily loaded"
 Tn the end each woman packed her belongings into her overnight bag and a suitcase which combines the hangers of the wardrobe trunk with the flat spaces of the usual dress case.

 YOURSELF

Glamorous eye makeup is now within reach of everybody.
 There are new eyelid pencils on the market, cute little gadgets in green, blue, black and brown, for as little as 10 cents.
 If you have hazel eyes, try using one of the green pencils for the thinnest kind of a line just above your eyelashes on the upper eyelid. Lick the pencil q bit before using it. Rub it bit after putting it on so that the line itself is blurred. the effect being subtler.
 Accent Green Glints
 This dash of green brings out lovely colors in hazel eyes. You may not be aware before of the green glint in your eyes. This makes it very alluring.
 For blue eyes. there are navy blue lines or even black ones, de- pending on the tone of the fleck of color that is in your pupil. Some times you have to experiment to know just what color is in your eyes. Your best frienls may know your eyes better than you yourself know them. But experimenting is such fun! Often it brings surpr.s- ing results.
 Brown eyes do not necessarily need brown coloring. You will find that light brown, Q tawny brown eye responds to the green coloring And, surprisingly, certain violet shades of blue eyes look best with brown eyelid coloring to tone them up.
 Summer is no time to begin using mascara. Unless you are skill ed in its use, you may have bad results from .perspiring and smear iIg. But summer is fine time to know that, if yo uare suffering

For meetings and breakfasts and luncheons they chose rather tailored summer clothes.
 For the motor trip they took along an extra sweater or top coat, a hat with small brim and colored glass; es. The shoes worn with this outfit were brogues. since the trip usually includes some walking. For the banquet they had an evening dress with an accompanying jacket. Jeans was of lace to match her dress. Grace had taffeta. They took evening shoes, bag and gloves. so that they were correctly dressed as to access sories.

from eyelashes that are 50 pale you can't sec them, you can have them dyed. The best beauty par lors make a fine art of dying eye lashes. They come out water proof. You can swim in peace knowing that your pretty new chestnut or black eye fringes won't turn pale again because of your plunge.
 Eyelashes grow so slowly that this dyeing has proved successful in many cases. It doesn't need do- ing over every week or so. A good eyelash dye now is likely to last until August, or even September.
