CHAPTER 3a. MARK AT HIS WORST
heamed at Mark

Wont you come to the fire?'
 Mark took no notice of him but waited until Armitage repeat ed the invitation; then he came forward and leaned against z chair back. Poole did not trouble to suppress a chuckle. Showing the hired man his place in front of his employer, eh? Neat stunt that. Armitage, obvious of the by play, was handling a couple oi letters.
 "If you have a few minutes to | spare, Lodely-"
 My dear Armitage, we're agreed surely, that my time is yours" T wrote to Miss Quentin, a: you suggested, about the studio but she is unable to come. wrote again, day or two ago but she is still unwilling to un- dertake the commission.
 Poole stared at the fire. Arm- itages voice had given him away It was woman.
 Lodely was murmering, through his smile.
 Tt really doesn't matter. I've looked at Malavie's handiwork and it will do beautifully for every thing except work. And. for work can carry on where I am"
 Tn Armitage's room?" enquirec Poole, still beaming.
 Tn Armitage's room," assenteo Lodely, still showing, ever SC slightly, his teeth.
 Then, I've also been in com munication with Sir Robert Phil bay" went on Armitage. He was a friend of my fathers"
 "Yes? Another millionaire, presume"
 No Sir Robert isn't a million aire and I don't expect he ever will be; his interests don't lie in money making. He is, or was, a very famous bone-setter."
 "Oh, a quack!" said Mark, in- differently. ..
 Sir Robert Philbay is recogniz- cd by the medical profession" Ar mitage said patiently. T don't think he's called a quack nowa- days. At any rate, he has brought off some marvellous cures. I want ed him to come and see you" A flash passed over Marks face. It was gone in an instant, but it softened Poole into sympathy once again. Poor devil, he had known hope and longing, under that bit lterness.
 He is rather eccentric. He-' Armitage hesitated. He says he hasn't come up to Town for many years and he'd rather we went to see him. He mentions next Tues day. He offers to put us up"
 Poole made a quick, involuntary movement. He knew exactly what vas going to happen.
 "As it happens, next Tuesday is impossible. That's the night of my party" smiled Mark.
 But, good God!-your party? You can have party any night"
 T don't think so. I'm booked for every other evening and I've made a good deal of splash about my Tuesday night studio parties. This, as the first of them, is the most important"
 More important than the chance of being made a sound man in- stead of"
 Armitage caught back the word. Poole, his eyes on his shoes, tried to focus Armitage's mind with his own. Dammit all, telepathy was possible, why shouldn't it work between them now? Armitage- Armitage-stick to your wheel don't let the little wnelp spoil your nerve.
 "We'n leave it for the time be- ing, Lodely shall we?"
 Much better. Poole nodded sol- emnly at his shoes. That was much more the way to handle him. Sound idea, telepathy.i

DIR. SAKE URGES
CHEAP HOUSES

Individual homes, more deSir-
able than APARTMENTS Contem-
plated in the PWA program, can
be constructed at lower cost, both
for slum clearance and for housing
OF low income groups, according to
DR.. Alexander SAKE, of Columbia
University, who told the Home
Builders and Land Developers Ma.
tional Committee, at their confer
ence at the Washington. that the
apartment proposal is over-em-
phasized in the PWA program.
Plans to put Slum dWellerS in
apartments to rent at ST a room
are impossible. according to other
speakers at the conference, who
said that the slum dWellerS could
only afford to pay about SO or
$3.50 and that $1O.50 or $11 a
room is the lowest practical rental
for mass housing.
SAKE said the tendency even in
New York is away from apart
entS and that small houses can
be built there to sell for $2,100
each.

president of the General Fedora
tion of Women's Clubs, said that
