How a Modem Girl Broke
ShackIes Of Tradition

had never belonged to herr save
for perhaps the dark, bewildered
months long ago when she had
carried her.
Enough Of Escapade
Enetered at Barnard, the pre-
liminaries safely passed, Joyce
resigned herself to another sum-
mer. She did not make use OF
the lattice-work. Shed had
enough and to spare, Of esca-
pade. She learned Of Hugh Mas
terson's engagement with SUI
preme indifference. She &C
quired several new young men
with an indifference as vast and
unfeigned. The only person
within a hundred miles who
aroused any interest in her was
a professor of biology who was
Summering near her with his
family. She met him and
turned his head rather COM
pletely, to her own indignation.
Professor Anderson was only 43.
Years in the classroom had not
yet taught him that pretty
young women are capable of in
terest in what a man knows and
not what he is, away from the
platform and the test tubes.
The professor had a jealous
wife and there was a very minor
tempest in his matutinal tea
pot.
Something Of this reached
Louisa Sheldon. Joyce was
called into the counsel cham
ber and asked for an explana-
ton. Louisa's withering mouth
was tight and bitter with dis
gust.
II am exceedingly humili-
ated for you"
But haven't done any,
thing! I liked to. hear him

mani"
quite. Please do not in
terrupt me. Can you honestly
assure me that you had no
warning-no inkling Of this
unfortunate situation?"
Honestly. I-oh, he's an
old fool" said Joyce, with ran
cor. why does a man think
just because a girl wants
to talk to him"
Never mind why. Just re-
member he does. They all
do. this has been very dis
tasteful to me-the whole af-
fair"
IT didn't flirt with him,
Granny, truly, I didn't"
Not Very Likely
Mrs. Sheldon, remembering
the man, nodded. 1t really
was not at all likely. Yet
if she had?
IT accuse you of nothing
save indiscretion."
I'm sorry. I didn't think"
"You never do"
That ended it. Louisa was

nifty. The Andersons were con-

The Rhymins
Optimist
BY ALINE MICHAELIS
Today Alone

Today Alone
Today alone; God, make me
know
My pleadings need no farther
go.
This is my need Of strength
and trust
To lift my spirit from the dust.
Today alone; God let me see
This is enough of ecstasy,
Enough Of courage and Of faith
To rout the fears that rend
like death.
Today alone, the well-loved task,
What need for future work to
ask?
To give my best ere this sun
sets,
So shall have no vain regrets!
To pray, to love, to laugh. to
dreamS
Today alone, while times vast
stream
Still bears me swiftly on my
way;
God, grant me this, today,
today!

There was a time when a
mother not only felt it her
duty, but took it as a matter
of special interest and pride as
well, to nurse her own baby.
But that idea seems to have
gone more or less out of fash
ion Of late and many women. es-
pecially young ones, look upon
nursing as unnecessary and a
bore.
Yet any doctor will tell you
that nothing can possibly equal

A Practical Hint

Stale air and lack of exercise
will grey the complexion, put
pouches under the eyes, so af-
feet the appetite that the sight
of a lamb chop puts teeth on
edge. Activity is the law of
life and no woman who doesn't
scamper out of doors every day
can expect to have an up-and-
at'em spirit. Idleness makes for
restlessness. reStlessness kicks
up a row in the central nervous
system, nerves make wrinkles,
it's all vicious circle. A three
mile walk at a brisk pace in
creases circulation, puts a diff.
ferent look on the face Of a
world. and grows pink-red roses
on the face of the walker.

One-No-Trump, over Partners
opening bid of one of a suit
never is a force. It is intended
only to keep bidding alive, in
case your partner may have a
suit that you really can assist,
or that better fits your hand.
It is a denial of game hopes in
the suit named by partner. This
negative No-Trump may be
made upon as little as two KS,
or their equivalent. It may be

Let's start off our Christ
mas list with the people near
est and dearest to us, the peo-
pie to whom we give some
thing personal and intimate.
1t may be lingerie, good prac-
tical old stockings, or it may
be the most regal and elegant
of negligees. The latter is an
excellent suggestion, for a
lovely hostess gown or negligee
is something few women buy
for themselves, but every wom-
an loves to own and wear one.
It is a gift that is entirely un-
selfish, and therefore the best
kind of a gift, for none will
enjoy it quite as much as the
woman who receives it, and it
is entirely intimate and per-
Sonal.
Velvet a FavOrite
The loveliest negligees right
now are of velvet, of a soft
transparent type that crushes
gently about you, but is so much
improved that soft folding and
crushing doesn't disfiguue it.
They're very, very simple, de-
pending on wealth of fabric.
and color, and ION beauty of
line for their distinction. Nearly
all are long and graceful, with
that medieval sweep that we
find nowadays only in tea
gowns or hostess gowns. Many
are tied with a sash in con-
traSting fabric or color, and a
few take rich trimming. You
can let your imagination run
riot in the choice Of colors, or
you can have a stunning back,
with a bit of color for contrast.
Their prices, like all otherz

against the black. 1t is priced
under $40. Then the long.
slender tea gown with bias
lines, buttoning high to the
side in front, is of a deep
wine shade, of velvet, and is
the loveliest one we've seen
anywhere. It's price is under
$50. The third, practical robe
of velvet, comes in women's
sizes, as large as you like, and
is only $40. Other favorites
are the maribou trimmed robe,
and two-tone velvet robes, in
many stunning color combina-
tions.

gowns, write Miss LavilIe, en-

made upon even less. provided
partners bid has been made in
the worst possible suit for your
hand. If partner opens bidding
with 1-Spade, and second hand
passes, each Of the hands shown
below obligates denial bid of
1-No Trump. There ordinarily
should be point count of Z or
8 to bid the no-trump. Some
players make the shift upon
less strength, but their weaker
take-outs, in my opinion, are not
good.
Show real strength, equal to
average honor strength, with all
except your partners suit
guarded, and holding not fewer
than two cards of his suit, by
bidding 2-No Trumps. If made
in just this way the take-out is
forcing. This bid shows ample

you have only two or three

TANGLED SKEIN
OF CIVIL SUITS
in MCCOY DEATH

Out of the tangle of complications
surrounding the death of w. H. Nc
Coy Tuesday morning after q beat
ing at the hands of A. L. Hendrix,
and the subsequent arrest of Hen
dirk on murder charge, today had
grown a puzzling question for Err
nest r. Utley, who was attorney for
Mccoy in two suits pending in su-
perior court.
One question is this: viii the
death of Mccoy have the effect of
cancelling a $4,000 alienation of
affections suit brought by Luther
Shelton against Mccoy, or will
Shelton's suit still go on, with Nc
Coy's estate substituted for his per-
SOM
Another question which arose is
the proper disposal of suit brought
by Mccoy against Hendrix, who is
now charged with his murder. and
Shelton, who will be an important
witness when the case comes TO
trial.
McCoy's suit sought return of
cattle he asserted were Ills prop
erty, and were Illegally held by
Hendrix and Shelton.
Utley today unraveled the tangled
skein of legal maneuvers which
aided In building up the hard feel
ing existing between Hendrix and
Mccoy and in which Shelton seems
unayoidably entangled.
Three suits involving either Nc
Coy, Hendrix or Shelton, or all
three, are now pending IN superior
court here.
Divorce Obtained
The first to be filed was that
brought by Mccoy against Hendrix
and Shelton for return of cattle,
or payment of money equivalent to
their value.
Prior to filing of this suit Shell
tons wife had procured Reno di-
vorce from her husband. assertedly
while he was in the county Jail al
ter Mccoy had informed officers
he was operating a still in hay
stack near Holtville.
Shelton then struck back by fill
ing an alienation OF affections suit
against Mccoy. charging the latter
stole the love of his wife, and ask
ing $4,000 damages.
Later Shelton filed suit for di-
yorce from his wife in superior
court here, naming Mccoy as CO.
respondent.
Utley said today he probably will
be called as a witness when the
murder case is tried, since both
Hendrix and Shelton visited his Of

was acting as attorney Tor Mccoy
