 E? OF SUE n By Marqery HaIe
MRS BRADLEY IS
 CRUEL TO SALLY

Sue could see that Mrs Bradley was speaking the truth. Evidently she had not known that Sally was legally married.
 Sally said that she was going to visit some friends of hers. Then her name was in the paper this afternoon in connection with the shooting in the woods-I supposed that she had tried some sort of camping stunt. I didn't know she was married. I knew, of course that she was seeing that man that Prichard man-but I didn't know 1t until a few days ago."
 "If Ruth had stayed home. ...'
 Let's leave Ruth ou of it please" Sues voice was growing strained.
 Hal Prichard is in Jail and he's going to the penitentiary. He's a liar and thief and crook and a few other things. Sally is leaving him." Sue answered.
 T see" Mrs Bradley stood, tall, unmoving. A car stopped outside. A Tilt of laughter drifted across the porch. The knocked swung against the gay green door. Without wait ing for the sound to be answered the door opened and Sarah. rose flushed and sparkling eyed, Ted, and Sally. pale, quieter, came into the room.
 "Mother!' Sally said the word in surprise. "Oh, mother!" There was relief in the second term. She had found a haven at last. it seem- ed to say.
 But Mrs Bradley did not move.
 q have just learned of your marriage" she said. q had come to bring you home. Naturally. un- der the circumstances-I'm sur prised that a daughter of mine could stoop so low! Your father and I are going south next week. I had thought you would like to accompany us. But now"
 She turned towrad the door.
 Sally had made a step toward her mother. Now she stood, white and stunned.
 But you can't-you don't under stand"
 II understand all I need to know. Your very dear friend here, in. dicating Sue, "has made 1t all clear"
 "You can't talk like that" Sue interrupted. You spoiled Sally. You made her selfish. Of course she would get into some sort Of mess. You were blaming Ruth for it all until you learned that Sally was married. That was differ ent. That would reflect on the fam ily name-it couldn't be covered up-so now you are turning against her, too. It's all right, of course. Anyone would expect you to act that way. You never were mother anyway"
 "Speaking of manners" the woman began, then stopped. The door closed after her.
 T'm sorry" Sue told Sally. "But couldn't help it."
 "I'm glad you said it. She wasn't kind to Ruth. None of us was. I'm glad Ruth's happy. Maybe the good do get rewards" she laughed. Il hope so. It would be so disappoint- ing to be good and not get any thing except an epitaph on your tom bstone. Nobody looks at tomb- stones anyway"
 Jack came a few minutes later. The waffles were beginning to turn a golden brown when loans car slip up the driveway. She stood

reversible silk fabric called Cote d'Azur. These are especially at- tractive in the hyacinth blues.
 Her detachable waistcoat of that wide ruffled ribbons called here "Tohu- Bohu" usually repre- sent the color contrast demanded. by the winter mode, as do her knit ted ruffles and scarves of ruff1ed ribbon. These come quite high at the back of the neck and frame the face becomingly.
 Mainbocher's contribution to the color contrast feature is both or- igina1 and new. While his day clothes are youthful but always conservative, his evening gowns, the greater number of which are black, offer a number of ideas that the well-dressed woman will well come, although they demand a great deal of art in the wearing. His slashed evening skirts, for ex- ample, sometimes reveal the leg as far as the knee. but this is so cleverly done that it adds interest to the gown. Some of these skirts are made of panels under which another panel in a contrasting color SHOWS dS LH0 WedTeT WdlkS. VT again black dress will be slashed on one side with one or two ir- regular panels of two bright col- ors, such as green and white. Lit tile square fringed shawls, very Spanish in inspiration, are used by Mainbocher as evening scarfs, also supplying in some cases, the touch of color.
 Bruyere's three distinctive col- ors this season are "erable," "Ce- dre' and "Brumes grises," which translated into colors read dark brown, a very dark green with 8 slight gray tint. and mist gray. The brown is often combined with vivid yellow, the green with gray and white, and the gray with vio- let.
 With Lanvins pre-Raphaelite blues, Worth's fushias and dregs of wine, Patou's medieval brown and tea-rose and all the other col ors exclusive to each couturier. women can look forward to the most colorful of winters.

One Designer b Showing Slit,

BY ROSETTE HARGROvE NEA Service Writer

Paris.-It is very evident, now that the master couturiers have divulged their ideas on next sea- sons mode, that the matching" days are a thing of the past. Just as though 8 magnetic current had passed through them all, they all seem to have agreed, for once, on two-toned dresses.
 To earn the title of really chic" this coming fall, a woman will therefore be bound to adopt the bi- color dress. The plain black or uni-colored ensemble is finished. Finished also the worry of exactly matching her dress, shoes, hat and gloves to the color of her win ter coat. Smartness will be guaged from the most artistically contrast ing accessories.
 There is, however, a considerable catch in this new fashion, for every woman will suddenly be called up- on to develop her color sense and divine which color is best set off by another. Some will do this in- stinctively, and theirs will be all the glory of achievement, enhanced by the knowledge that they will not be likely to see their ideas re- produced ten thousand times.

Do you remember my friend, Diana Morehouse?' asked Sally one day as we were chatting over a cup of tea.
 "Yes, indeed" I replied. Isn't she the girl you visited at South ampton, who got so sunburned that she had to have a pound of cure afterwards
 That's Diana all right" laughed Sally. And now she's in more trouble. Poor Diana! You know she sprained her ankle a few weeks ago, and she's been doing nothing ever since but lie around reading and eating. She never had a sylph- like gure. you know-and the re- suit of this enforced inactivity has made her gain until now she looks like a house."
 "How you do exaggerate, child"
 "No, really, you ought to see her." Sally was serious now-at least as serious as so irrepressible a young person can ever be. You see, everybody brings her cakes and candies and all kinds of tempt ing sweets, and she just nibbles them all day-besides eating three hearty meals. But her ankle it get

suddenly. Lottie, a veritable sea nymph in green, was bending over her.
 "Ive been out to bathe-not in the sea, just the pool" Lottie an- nounced. Josie told me about it. The boys have a sort of sunken bath behind the house. It's as large as a baby swimming pool, with showers rigged up and everything. It's great!"
 Half an hour later, wearing cool chiffon and dainty shoes, Mona de- scended the stairs. Lottie had reached the terrace just before her and sat at a small table the silver service in front of her, quizzing the boys about their tea.
 Josie the maid, arrived with tinkling ice. Mona supposed that this must have been brought from a distant port at great expense un- til Lottie explained that the kitchen was outf1tted with an cleo tric refrigerator. She had made second tour of investigation ana was prepared to answer questions.
 Barry and Steve, in fresh linens and sleek of hair, rose as Mona ap- preached. It was cool on the ter race. The glare of the sunlight was softened and a gentle breeze play ed. \,
 "Tea, Mona," Lottie inquired She was perfectly at home here. Hot or cold?"
 "Cold,' Mona decided.
 "l don't see how anyone can drink hot tea here" observed Lot tie, "There is lemon or lime. Which do you prefer?"
 Let me arrange her place, Lot tie" Barry said. He put down plate of tiny cakes and took pos session of the tea table. T know what Mona likes"
 It was small courtesy yet 1t made Mona's heart leap as She watched. The long months seemed suddenly to have faded. She had never = really - been married to Barry's uncle. Here they were-she and Lottie, Barry and Steve-on an outing just as they had been so often before.
 Things would be all right. she was sure. Barry would forgive her for everything. Some time very soon she could explain all that had happened. Now she would relax and enjoy herself.
 Her dream was broken abruptly. Barry held the tumbler decked with mint out to the maid and. in- dicating Mona. said, Give this to Mrs Townsend"
 Mrs Townsend! He might have said nothing, leaving it to the maids deduction whom the glass was intended for, or he might have handed her the glass himself.

 They heard a pounding on the carpeted stairs. a sudden chatter on the veranda, and Bud. freshly dressed and glowing after his re- cent swim, joined them.
 "Tea?" Lottie asked: Did you have a good swim, Bud ?'
 "No tea, thanks. Yes. I had hne swim" To Barry he said, I'm go-- ing down to the plane. Is that o. k.?"
 Barry nodded and Bud flung him self into the rickety automobile and started off.

In order to make sure that your curtains will be long enough after the first laundering, place a small tuck near the top or hemline, when you are binding them. Before the curtains are laundered remove the tuck. You won't miss the inch or two that is lost in shrinkage.

It was rejected, until one merchant discovered it was an old Confederate bill of 1884.

Wonder where that bills been hiding?

Of Interest To Women
ELECTRIC "DUTCH OVEN"

Making a roast a dark brown color on the outside, without scorching it, yet seeing that it is cooked through and drought, is oneof the difficulties of most cooks. Now there is "Dutch oven" store which cares for this problem. It automatically gives the roast the color it needs, and then settles down to cooking it without worrying any more about appearances. Blasting the meat isn't necessary.

NAUCATUCK Busy Fall At U. s.
 Plants Anticipated
Peak of Production Coming in Sept-John Kirk Dies
 at Home of Sister

Prospects of busy fall season are said to be in store for the local footwear plants of the U. s. Rub. Der company according to notices posted in the plants yesterday over the signature of Factory Manager Walter H. Norton. It Is expected that the peak of production on gum and fabric shoes will be reached in September. The notice also states that the firm hopes to provide minimum working sched- ule of four days week for the gum shoe and tennis departments until the annual vacation which is expected to come the latter part of July.
 After the vacation it is expected there will be marked increase in production. The vacation period, it is expected will be not over two weeks. The notice reads as follows:
 Estimated requirements fur nished by the sales department in- dicate that we will face a produc- tion peak in September on gum shoes and fabric shoes. Our equip ment at the present time Is not sufficient to take care of this con- templated peak. Temporarily. at least, we will be obliged to operate some of our tennis and gum shoe units on a double shift basis.
 While we do not need the pro- duction before the vacation shut down we must train operators to take care of the peak require ments.
 By hiring additional people at this time we are helping the url- employment situation. We hope to be able to provide a minimum Of four days week for the gum shoe and tennis organization until shut down.
 Arrangements are being made
