feet the return of the kidnapped Lind

ton today and said he would organize
search for the kidnapers in this
vicinity.
DR.. Condor left his home in New
York early in the morning in an auto
mobile driven by one-armed neigh
Dor, but declined to reveal his destina-
ton.
He was equally secretive upon his ar
rival here and. except to say that he
planned to organize the search for the
kidnapers in New England, would not
discuss his reasons for coming here. He
said later in the day he planned to
visit Pittsfield
Leaving New York this morning and
motoring up the Bronx River parkway,
DR.. Condor travelled to Wingdale.
There he talked for a few minutes
with man at the construction site of

If you are relying entirely on some fragrant something out of a modernistic crystal bottle to set tie all your complexion troubles for you, you are pretty naive for a modern.
 Certainly unguents and lotoins do their full bit. But there is no single cure-all that will miracu- lously make your skin soft as silk and more beautiful.
 Lovely skin often begins with a fine, healthy digestion. Plenty of sleep, on a good set of springs and an excellent mattress, does its full quota too. A well-rounded diet, with lots of fresh vegetables and fruits. makes a big contribution. And all the more water you drink the more chance your skin has to be a real asset.
 There is one good thing about the skin game today. You don't have to have a peaches and cream skin to be beautiful. Many artists hold briefs for the olive complex ion, others prefer the rich suntan tones, some like the pallor of a camellia-like skin.
 It is stylish to be quite as in- dividual in your skin tone as in your clothes. Make the most of what you have. If your skin is healthy and looks it, if you keep it scrubbed meticulously and 1t shows it, if you have a real zest that comes from a healthy body

In Nancy's plans to budget her food allowance more carefully she considered the outer stalks of eel cry. She, like most women. had put them in a pitcher of water, planning to use them, but usually allowing them to stand around un- til they became water soaked. The hearts always went to the table crisp and tender, but the outer stalks went to the garbage can water logged and wilted.
 She consulted her cook books and found there were a number of things she could do with those stalks.
 She could cook them in a cas- serole in the oven, using only a small amount of water, a little salt and pepper. By keeping the cover on she soon had them ten der. They needed just q bit of butter at serving time. This method was called braising. It found favor when the celery was served with poultry.
 Then Nancy found she could cook the celery. cut into small pieces in boiling salted water. When celery was tender it could be combined with white sauce, cheese and baked.

The man in the car who was waiting for Ruth Bradley was the very man in all the world whom she didn't want to see. It was Dr Raynor. She had been glad that she was teaching a class that day instead of going about her regular duties as a member of the school nurses staff. She thought she would not see him.
 Going my way?" he asked.
 She nodded. II seem to be. I'm teaching"
 "Get in. Where?"
 "At the Mckinley building"
 'I'm working there this after noon."
 "Then I suppose I'll be turning my charges over to you, won't I?"
 Probably" He was steering the car carefully, for the street was suddenly swarming with children. You haven't been home, have you?"
 I'm not going home, Joe, I haven't been asked to come back. Isn't that proof enough that I'm not wanted? But I really wouldn't go anyway" she added with utter candor.
 Sally misses you" He said it quietly.
 "No, she couldn't. We saw such little of each other"
 But she knew that what Sally soak in water for three hours.

missed was really someone to slip ribbons in lingerie. catch torn places in lace. press dresses. ar- range flowers.
 You don't appreciate Sally" Joe Raynor said suddenly. "Of course, I'm prejudiced."
 Aren't we all prejudiced, one way or another, with almost everyone?" she asked. "It's for givable sin. And Sally is very love- ly looking"
 Beautiful" the young physician agreed. The very way he said the word was like 8 swift barb that stabbed deep into Ruth's heart. 'I'h fortunate"
 "Yes." Ruth agreed. You had lots of competition. But Sally had good taste in choosing you" They had reached the school Ruth climbed out of the car. She went up the walk, into the room, removed her hat and coat, and sat down. It was a quarter after eight Until three thirty she would have to make herself smile and talk and explain when all she wanted to do was go home, lie down on the bed, and let this terrible sense of emptiness and futility beat down on her until she was too weak . care what happened.
 School started. A youngster start ed to cough He was choking on B piece of candy, Ruth learned When the candy was removed, she felt 8 little shaky.
 You shouldn't eat in school Tony" she told the youngster. "But, Miss Bradley, 1t is the first candy I have had for-oh, for days and days before last Christi mas" the little boy answered.
 "You mean that you haven't had d gumdrop of a. chocolate cream or anything" Ruth asked. There was chorus of answering voices. She looked at the children's faces. Thin. for the most part. A little hungry. She looked at their clothes. Patched. Shoes that weren't always mates. She didn't feel like teaching geography and arithme- tic. She decided to change her pro- gram.

 Celery with cream, not cream sauce, was good with baked hash.
 Cooked celery combined well with Brussels sprouts. It added a good flavor to cooked diced car- rots.
 Cooked celery was a fine addi- tion to creamed potatoes. In fact. Nancy found that 1t had zestful flavor that improved many dishes. Peter liked some of it in scrambled 1 eggs. So did Joan and young Peter.

your new tan this evening, won't you? I would, if were you. My beads are sweet with 1t. I'm so glad you washed your hair yesterday. What do you want to take. honey? I'll be putting the things out on the bed while you're in the bath room"
 "I suppose I'll have to take that awful old suitcase, as well as my overnight bag. We're going to AL bany tomorrow. Later in the week we'll come down, and I'll pack a trunk; but I won't want to have to rush about 1t. Yes-the old suit case and my overnight bag. I can leave the suitcase in the car to- night. If you'll get them out, dear, I'll decide what to put in them later. l suppose there isn't any hot water?"
 "I'll light the gas heater. No. that takes too long. I'll run down and put on the kettle and bring 1t up"
 "You will not. I'll do 1t myself" They started for the door and arrived there at the same time and there was a small tussle. Ce- ely said, You get the bags, angel, and I'll put on the kettle. I won't have you running up and down stairs. waiting on me. The suit case is in the east room closet, l think. My bag is in my closet
 "Cissy! I've had an awful thought. It isn't. Mary-Frances went to Ermintrude's to spend the night and I'm sure she has taken your bag. She always does" But I must have it. I can't. l positively can't take that old wood en brush and black comb of mine nor any of my toilet things they're disgraceful."
 Don't worry. I'll telephone to her right away to bring 1t home. You'd want to tell her godoby-"
 "Of course. I'll call her while I'm downstairs. You get the suit case, dear. But don't fill 1t with your things. I'm not going to take all your things"
 Ann found the suitcase and sighed because of it's scratches and dents and rough spots. She opened the bureau drawers in the east room and tossed through their scented contents. The bureau In the east room had served as her hope chest. So many of the things she had thought pretty were odd and old fashioned now. Imagine any ones wearing a step-in the size of this thing. It was large enough for Rosalie. Here was that sweet changeable taffeta breakfast coat that Nella had given her. Cissy must take it. She wouldn't? Well, it coulud be tucked in when Cissy wasn't watching. A little pile of extra handkerchiefs. These fancy garters-"
 Cecily, kettle fin hand. came to the door and said, "The line Is busy. I've tried and tried. Have you looked in my closet? Perhaps she didn't take it," and rushed away.
 It was not in the closet Ann went downstairs to the telephone and listened to the small quick thuds that informed her Ermin- trude was talking to friend. Sine waited for a few minutes, and dialed the number again, and then again, but the thuds continued; 50 she went to the foot of the stairs and called to Cecily:
 "I'll run over to the Hills and get her. It's only a few blocks and 1t will be easier than fussing at this phone, and quicker. I'll hurry"

were walking up the front steps to the porch. Barry, in his car, was circling the turn-around with the old broken fountain in its cen ter.
 Cecily repeated, Ann, am sorry" and added, but why in the world were you frightened, angel? It is only half-past six right now"
 "Cissy-I can hardly breathe yet. I've pictured you at the bottom Of every ravine in Oregon. I've never had such an hour-I can hardly breathe. Of course, if you'd been dressed--but in your bathrobe! l telephoned the hospitals. They acted as if they never heard of such a thing as an accident. Good ness! Cissy, where have you been?"
 Up in the hills. Let's stop here a minute on the porch, Ann. T. Did you have a bad time with Grand after I left this morning."
 Bad? Terrible. He declares that you pushed him over-struck him down, he says, in the hall"
 Ann! l did not! Oh, my word! I suppose l am in for 1t. Well--it can last only 50 long. Wait a min ute, Ann. Angel, I-I hope you are going to forgive me. Barry is coming back in about half an hour, and I'm going with him and we're going to be married. Wait let me tell you. He got the li- cense in Albany yesterday-just think. We've been talking and talking and deciding all day. We either have to marry or give each other up entirely. There's his book his books, and his future. Every thing. I'll keep on working, of course, and pay what make, every cent of it, in here at home. If Barry's book is a success, and 1t Is bound to be, we can help lot. We're coming. both of us, on Sun days to clean house. Barry says he's a slick cleaner of houses. and - You said you wanted me to marry, Ann. You remember. the other day, you said"
 "Sister's sweetheart! Of course l said so, and l do. Dear. I'm glad. Don't think anything eyse - don't talk so--so humbly. I'm glad. You'll be so happy. So happy"
 "Yes, but Ann, how shall l break it to Grand and Rosalie? Barry said just to say
 "They aren't here, thank good ness. They've gone out with the CarmichaeIs for dinner and the evening. They are cheering Grand up, know, so they'll probably play euchre and be away late. You can just go. 1 would, if I were you. Just go. I'll tell them when they come home. They'll fuss. but I don't care. Cissy. after the past hour if would take more than scene to shake me. Now that you are alive and happy. nothing else seems to matetr. Really 1t doesn't. Come. let's go in. No ones at home. Not even Mary-Frances."
 In the lower hall Cecily said, Angel, angel, angel Ann"
 Tn the upper hall she said, And I was afraid to tell you! Then you don't think that Pm frightfully selfish and-all that? You know, you understand that I'm not really letting you down."
 "Cissy dear! If course l don't Il mean, I dol mena whatever l do mean. I'm just glad--thats all. Glad for your pluck and every thing. What are you going to wear?

-YOUR CHILDREN
By Dive Roberts Barton


 0i9s2 eN NEA seavlcE iksc,
 All over the United States trees are being planted to commemor- ate the two hundredth anniversary of the birth of George Washington and in almost all cases school chil- dren are activity interested in the work.
 Tn Bennington, Vermont, i've miles of English elms are being set out this year in honor of the memory of the Father of Our Country.
 The Southland, perfect at this time a year for tree planting, is very busy. Six hundred high school pupils in Jacksonville, Fla. have set out one thousand forest trees along a country highway. Other school children in other cities are not only cooperating in the purchase of young saplings, but are actually engaged in plant ing them by the thousands.
 Many of the states are furnish ing the memorial plates or tags free of charge and are helping in other ways with the work in this February until Thanksgiving festival.
 A Fitting Memorial.
 Could anything be more fitting or magnificent than this tree planting program? George Wash ington was a lover of trees and some of the monarchs at Mount Vernon still stand that were there when the soldier and statesman had turned his sword to a plow- share and retired to spend his de- clining years on his Virginia es- tate.
 As spring approaches our north ern territories, great plans are under way for similar memorials. As in Vermont, many communi- ties have already begun the work. The American Tree association is going to have a busy summer, l am sure.
 have been thinking that one good way to commemorate Wash ington's birthday on February 22 in schools is to tell the children about his ability as naturalist, as well as that of a soldier and a statesman.
 Have you ever been Mount Yer non where George and Martha Washington are buried? They are not buried really, but lie in open tombs in simple stone sarcophagi where the shade of forest trees falls over them. If they were alive they could stand and gaze down gently sloping hillside to the beautiful Potomac they both loved so well.
 A Lover of the Land.
 Washington loved the land and everything 1t bore. Recently we drove through Fredericksburg, Va, near where he was born, and many of the old trees under which he played as a boy are still there in the grand old town.
 As 6 very young man he was sent on hazardous errand to the commander of the English forces west of the Pennsylvania Noun tains. Also as surveyor he went out into the wilderness. That took courage. If you have crossed those mountains on a smoth paved highway, have you ever tried to conceive what it meant to blaze trails through virgin forest and wilderness thick with Indians, and where to be lost meant death?
 think that sometimes we over- emphasize Washington's political and martial career, and say too little about the brave young fel- low whose experiences would make an astounding volume were they all known.
 At any rate, 1t is fitting ges- ture to commemorate his birth by planting trees and it won't be long now until spring.
