she said family. She kissed
him. Well have to wait" she
said, and clung to him a mo-
ment. We've do love each
other, don't we?"
I'VE do" It was like a VOW,
the way he said it. He bent
his tall head to hers once more
and kissed her sorrowful red
mouth. GO to bed, honey; see
you tomorrow, he said gently.
When the door closed Lynn
went wearily into the bedroom.
About Mara? Should I go
up there now, Jennie, and see
what I can do?"
Jennie, creaming her face at
the mirror, turned. well, no.
Are you out of your mind?
There's nothing we can do for
her except give her a bed If
Bill kicks her out"
HE can't do that" Lynn
reminded her. "She pays the
rent"
well, maybe he can't. Well
see. Did you see Dwight?
What did he have to offer?"
HE offered me a job with
him. I'm not going to take It,"
mot going to take it?" gasped
Jennie. "See here. does that
mean you-or Tom?"
He Has Ideas
tom, I suppose. He has
ideas. I know he's crazy, but
what can I do about it?" asked
Lynn. He says he won't
marry me if I take it-and as
all I was taking it for was to
get married, there isn't much
use, is there?"
"Men!" said Jennie.
That night before she went
to bed Lynn got out her best
monogrammed paper and wrote
to Dwight. It was an awkward
letter, without life or color.
How could she tell him the
truth? It sounded so con.
ceited on her part, so childish
on Toms; she would never be
able to meet David Dwight
frankly again If she told him.
She wrote that after think
ing it over she had decided
that Sarah was right and it
was better to stay where she
was and also not to incur the
possibility Of dismissal by
marrying Immediately. She had
talked it over with Tom, and
he had agreed. After all, her
position was excellent in the
Seacoast Company; she had q
chance of a future there. It
had been so kind of Mr..
Dwight; she appreciated it,
ct cetera.
She mailed the note on her
way back to work. When it
reached Dwight, he read 1t
twice, swore once, and then
laughed.

Had more sense than he had
given him credit for. ALI for
the best, he supposed. He.
Dwight, hadn't let her down:
he had made good his offer Of
friendship. And things were
as they had been. Lynn

for heaven knew how long: and

would change her mind.

Perhaps you've seen some Of
the new colorful jewelry in the
stores, or worn by your friends,
and have wondered what its
significance is. It's the Olympic
games jewelry, designed in pop.
ular types, but in the official
colors Of the coming Olympic
games. You will sometimes see
three colors, but most often
seven, which include all the
colors found in the flags Of the
countries taking part in the
games. There is red, white and
blue, our own flag colors, and
black, green, purple and yellow
in addition. AS they are such
clear, vivid colors, they are
splendid in jewelry to wear with
white summer clothes, and of
course all the colors harmonic
as they are used together in the
flags.
Worn with White
This jewelry is in popular
types, and is usually made Of
galalith, or some similar compo.
sition. Large beads in odd ar
rangeme1ts are smart, and
make excellent color accent on
white clothes, or with things
that harmonic. All the jew
elry is sports-like, so will do
with spectator sports clothes,
or the summery things that We
wear all day long in Washing
ton. The official emblem Of
the games, which is six links
looped one within another, ap-
pears in some way on some Of
the jewelry, but most Of it has
just the colors to remind you
of the forthcoming games.

Chapter Two

We finally entrained. a Sing
halese boy that I had hired for
the trip to Calcutta remaining
in the freight car with The
Patsy. I rode in one OF the
passenger coaches forward. Qn
India, mixed trainS-carrying
both freight and passenger cars
are quite commonO
The Patsy got an even worse
jolting than I had anticipated.
Before we had Travelled more
than a few hours her knees
were badly bruised and her
sides were sore. It's no fun to
be constantly thrown against
the walls of a sheet-iron car.
It developed later as we
headed into the monsoons that
our troubles had hardly begun.
These tremendous Indian rains
regularly do a terrific amount
Of damage. AS we plowed along
through flooded areas I couldn't
help wondering how long 1t
would be before we should have
to stop. Greeks, ponds and
rivers along our route were
overflowing and we were due to
be marooned If the storm con-
tinued.
The bad news came when we
were about five miles outside OF
the ancient city of Madura, our
next important stop. A serious
washout had made further
travel impossible. The railroad
officials had already arrived on
the scene. Arrangements were
made to take passengers to Ma
dura by boats. Nothing could
be done about freight.
ArrangeS All Details
I was told that 1t would be
~ days before the railway
company could undertake to
get the elephant and my crates
and cages containing birds and
small animals to Madura.
That meant only one thing: I
would have to get them to
Madura myself. A 12-day wait
would have wrecked my sched-
ule, which involved an early re-
turn to America with my pres
ent collection and the hun
dreds of other specimens Of all
kinds that I had in Calcutta
and Singapore.

Lynn, running upstairs, burst
into her apartment and was
astonished to find Tom sitting
there glumly and alone, crush
ing cigarettes into an ash tray.
At least from the appearance
of the ash tray that was what
he had been doing for some
time past.
Tom, how did you get in?
Where's Jennie? I thought you
were going to be busy this eve
ning!" she exclaimed.
He did not rise; sat slouched
in the chair wearily, his long
legs stretched in front Of him,
his lean face detected.
Jennie let me in; she went
out directly afterward, I did
have a date, but RaWlson came

"And where have you been?"
he shot out at her.
She hadn't told him of her
appointment with Dwight. If
nothing came of it what would
have been the use? Now that
something had come of it all
the laughter and excitement
. and satisfaction had gone.
Toms detection was like some
thing tangible in the room; it
smothered and oppressed.

David Dwight; afterward he

hlm' and to her own bewilder-

her voice a note of defiance.

Anger broke her voice and set

had, however, a wholesome ef-
feet upon Tom. Anger such as
hers argued a pristine inno-
cence. He advanced upon her
and took her in his arms. She
fought him like a cat; left the
marks Of her nails on his aston
ished face. He dropped her
quickly.
You little devilw was his
natural response.
Reaction Sets In
He nursed the scratch, apply
ing grimy handkerchief. Lynn
cast herself on the couch, reac-
ton setting in. Sobs shook her.
He heard her say, through the
storm:
"Just because I was afraid
losing my job if we got mar
ried-and he was decent enough
to give me one-so that we
could be"
But Toms impulse toward
reconciliation had passed. He
said coolly: "You needn't accept
Dwight'S offer in order to marry
me. Because If you do, I won't

She sat up on the couch.

''It would be bad enough to
have you working in the bank:
but I'd be there, at least. But
to have you working for him,
in his house, under his eyes,
within reach Of his hand. You
may think I'm crazy, perhaps
I am-crazy about you,, anyway
but I'm not as crazy as that.
Or too crazy. I don't care
what you think!" he ended.
He put the handkerchief in
his pocket.
She said, all the anger gone,
"Oh, Tom, I'm so unhappy"
That softened him. He went
over and dropped to his knees
beside her and put his arms
about her. I'm sorry I said
what did, sugar" he told
her. "You know I didn't mean

safety is at stake" He said that
Homer Griffith would be moved to
quarterback and replaced at full
back by Morrison.
Mohler's loss cast a heavy pail
of gloom over the campus which
had depended upon him to lead
the Trojans to another national
championship and carve himself a
position on the mythical All Amer
ican team, for which he was men,
toned last year by some experts.
A cool, heady general in the
backfield, Mohler was the spark
plug of the Trojans' scoring often
sive. In their surprising victory
over Stanford last week, Mohler
was given lions share of the
credit by his running of punts and
interference. His two gallops, &c
and % yards, respectively, placed
his team in scoring position. They
capitalized each time. He was one
of the greatest broken-field run
ners in Trojan history.
Perhaps his most outstanding
performance during his collegiate
career was against Washington
State last year and California in
1880 when he scored four touch
downs. At Alhambra (Calif) high
school he had made brilliant rec
ord which attracted the attention
of Southern California football au-
thorities.
Mohler's popularity on the foot
ball field was carried to the cam
pus which elected him president of
the student body this year.

MIDWEST GRID
STARS SIZED UP
BY SPORTS SCRIBE
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY

OHItcu fTeSS oLdI1 correspondent
CHICAGO, Oct. ga few per-
sonal opinions, observations and
notes on the football season:
Ollie Olson, Northwestern's plat
mum blond fullback, is the best
punter for distance in the Big. Ten.
/. He kicked one 68 yards out of
bounds against Purdue last week,
the punt being measured from the
line of scrimmage and not from
the spot where he kicked. He
had another one good for 54 yards
and his average on IL punts was
81 yards.
Paul Moss, Purdue end, is prob
ably the Big Tens best punter for
touch. He can't hold up with
Olson for distance but he can GER
tainly control 'em. He punted
four times against Kansas State,
once out of bounds on the l yard
line, once out on the 4-yard line
and twice out on the 6-yard line.
Harry Newman, Michigans Jew
ish quarterback, is the best for
ward passer in the Big Ten.
Five of Michigan's nine touch
downs against Northwestern, Ohio
State and Illinois resulted from
Newmans accurate throws. The
longest pass of the year in the
Big Ten, however, was thrown from
Edmonds, Indiana fullback, to
Lyons, Negro end, in the Chicago
game. E. 1t travelled 48 yards from
the line of scrimmage and So yards
from the spot where it was thrown.
Roy Hostmann, Purdue's knitting
fullback, is the most effective
straight-away ball carrier in the
conference. He runs with a low,
powerful drive which slices a path
through opposing lines. . He lugs
the ball close to his stomach and
holds it with both hands. He
seldom, if ever, furnbles. Off
the field he wears glasses, is an
honor student and non-fraternity
man with a modesty that contra
diets his savage plunging. In
4 games he has carried the ball
67 times, gained 303 yards for an
average of 4.52 yards each time he

Rentner Slowed
Pug Rentner, Northwestern's ALL
America halfback last season
hasn't chance to repeat this year
and will have to start getting
away soon or he won't make the
all-conference team. He can't
get going from scrimage at all, but
is still dangerous on kickoffs, pass
interceptions and punt returns. &.
He almost got away for touch
