 Smart! Right there on the up- take every time. Grand grabbed the bait like a good fellow.
 My boy, this northwest country, as you say, is Gods own country. I use the expression with due rev erence, and 1 trust with due humil- ity. This northwest country"
 The telephone bell rang. For no discoverable reason except that 1t had been installed there Is the age of inconvenience the telephone hung high on the dining-room wall. Mary-Frances jumped to it's summons and stood on tiptoe and said, Hello" in high and wholly artificial voice, and followed It with, "Oh, Ermintrude!" as If Er- mintrude had been abroad in far countries for many years, and said next, "Yes, have my algebra which. decoded, meant, "The fam lily is here, and I cant say a word"
 Mary y-Frances's share of the conversation, after that, was made up largely of breathless negatory exclamations, prefixed and suffixed unfailingly with her friends name.
 No, Ermintrude!" "Ermintrude, no" Really, Ermintrude!" "Oh, Ermintrude, mol" With an ocea- sional plea for haste: "Oh, hurry, Ermintrude!"
 The family and their guest strove to carry on. They tried talking over, under, and around the high silvery tones that Mary Frances used exclusively for telo- phonic communications. They were worsted in all attempts-un- dertones were enveloped; raised voices gave an impression of com monplaces being shouted in foot less competition with the trilling enthusiasms from the east wall. Presently they gave it up and smiled, patiently. shame -facedly, amusedly. absent-mindcly, &C., cording to each ones mood, and waited in silence while Grand slow ly diminished the mound of shellcd nuts he had piled beside his plate.
 Since they had to wait there. anyway, it was too had that they could not have heard Ermintrudes part in the dialogue.

Sorry, I took chance" pr Raynor's voice called out to Jack as the two cars stopped. "All my fault"
 Jacks voice was cordial, too, when he answered, and he made some laughing remark, but Sue knew that he was noticing the signs of festivity around the house.
 Turning in?" Dr Raynor call ed. 'I'll back out and make way"
 Just driving past" Jack an- swered.
 But Sue had noticed the widen ing of Sally Bradley's eyes. She seemed surprised, d little suspi- cious.
 Just a minute, Jack" Ruth told him. Sally, we have an old friend of your along. You have not seen him for ages. Hal Pritch- ard. Lucky we met you, isn't it?',
 "Very! l don't believe that l remember MT Pritchard, though. We're holding up traffic, Joe. We had better drive on.
 "Only a man that girls forget" Ruth murmured as the car went on. But don't let it annoy you. Sally does such things to provoke interest. She doesn't want any man to think she's been listening for the telephone or doorbell or watching the mails just in hope he had something nice 10 tell her.
 "The party looks as though it 's going to be rather good, doesn't it?" she went on.
 Party" Jack asked Carelessly. Isn't 1t little tough on Nancy? She's not in any mood to have people pulling off stunts around har b

 The tang of satcd fish often of fresh fish fails to do. profes- sloral cooks recognize this and fire. ducntly introduce bit of smoked or salted fish into their hols d'oeuvres to give Hest to the con coction.
 Crcamed codnsh is an old fash. toned standby on the list of salt ed fish that offers mary economi- cal ways to vary the winter menu.
 Creamed codhsh. codnsh balls and codnsh soufne are generally used and liked. These dishes prove boom to the home maker, who finds herself. for one reason or another, unable to supply her table with fresh fish.
 From Canada comes the recipe for a combination of salt anl canned fish. Carefully frefhened salt codhsh Is combined with can ned shr'mps in tart sauce thot is unusual end delicious.
 The d.sh Is excellent for Sun day-niGht supper. Serve with ry" bread sandwiches, coffee and fruit and cake dessert,
 There are go n'nN brands or salt codfish on the market, all of varying degrees of saltinesS, that it's rather hard to give spcc,iic d. rcctionS for freshcning the fish However. the small fllets and flakes will freshen in Il shorter length of time than the larger bony pieces. Usually the fish Is put to soak in | lukeWarm water and allowed tu stand for two hours, changing the water three times, Very salty fish may need 10 stand from twelve to twcnty-four hours, changing the water many times.

 No. sir" Barry was as pleas ant as could be. "Only for about six months. After left the uni versity--"
 May I ask what university, and why you left?'
 Stanford. I'd been graduated, you see--time to go. I went east and was there for two years in newspaper work"
 And what part of the east? And what class of newspaper work did you pursue?'
 "New York. Cub reporting, and some magazine work on the side"
 "Ah. You will forgive me If say that 1t is difficult for me to understand why any young man who has, with even slight success embarked upon the sea of journal ism should abandon 1t to become a mere superintendent of building construction? ?"

I'd worked for him summers while l was going to Stanford. He'd had some trouble with the man he fired --dishonesty--so he's good enough to say that he is glad to have me in the job"

 II sec" Jacks lips were shut in tight line and his eyes were narrowed.
 Sue, next to him, slid one arm along his arm.
 Maybe she preferred to go." she murmured.
 The errand took only a little while. Jack and Sue drove Ruth home. Then they dropped Pritch- ard at his hotel.
 "Whose car are you driving? ?" Sue asked then.
 "One of the boys at the office. He wanted a roadster for tonight. He's meeting some girl he hasn't seen for ages and had hunch that he would make better i'm pression on her" he said. My car was bought last year when I had more loose cash. It was lucky anyway. This one held us all. Want me to drop you at our hotel. or want to go with me to the place I'm to leave it?"
 "I'll go along" Sue answered.
 It took just minute to find the address of the mans roominE house and park his car, carefully locked, in front of it.

If you can afford both weekly, and a manicure thrown in, so much the better.
 To get yourself into beauty routine, your New Years resolu- lions should consider not only your face, your hair, your nails. but your general appearance. which means your figure. Specl- iically, whether you are thin enough and 1.-the enough. It is not sufficient just to be thin to- day. Being 1.-the is really more important.
 Suppose you allow yourself half hour daily for beauty. Nights might take 20 minutes and morn. irg5 10. If you have money enough to get treatments these are in addition to your own rou- tine. of course.

Everywhere she went Nancy heard tales of want and suffering Having been q member of two or three charity boards for n num- ber of years she was quite familiar with tales of woe. But never had she been so moved as she was this year.
 She knew from Peter, that busl- ness was looking up, but that did not ease the situation for the time being. Too many reserves had been used, too many people were so close to the edge that 1t would take more than q week or two of prosperity to bring them back to feeling of security.
 Food was needed, money for rent was needed, but clothes were of almost primary importance.
 Nancy was sure shre had stripped her closet. But after a particular ly narrowing board meeting she went back, resolved to give up everything which she did not ab- 9olutely need.

larger contributions totaling nearly
$3.50 While most of these also were
described as having been result of

so state.
Farley and the Finance Committee
have set $780,, ZOO as the amount thev
