Cf whom 600 100000 were white

me-" cried the girl. "He knows
that: he knew it then"
That's as may be. My 1ntor-
nation is that he's got it in for
you. It might be only some
more of Bills hot air; then
again it might not be-"
Patricia was shaken. The
gravity of the mans tone was
unmistakable. He thought this
important or he wouldn't have
bothered to report it. He
didn't believe it was only some
more of Bill McGee's hot air.
1t wasn't right, it wasn't fair
that she should have this to
contend with along with all
the rest. She struggled against
a rush of helpless tears. In
her shabby little 1rock she
looked so frightened, SO defense"
less, so pathetically young that
momentarily Mallory softened.
He said, almost gently, go
home, Patricia. That's the best
place for you. We can protect
you there"
NO" she said stiffly, mo, I
can't go home"
Quite Fed Up
His sympathy was exhausted.
He rose with the air of one
washing his hands of the mat
ter. "It's your own life" he
conceded politely. Just as po-
litely he added. "If you want
a police escort for awhile can
probably arrange one. That is,
if a police escort won't inter
fere too much with your pres
ent way of living"
Patricia, too, rose. Mallory
failed to observe the trembling
of her ungloved hands. He only
observed the GOODNESS and stead
mess of her voice as she de-
clined his suggestion. He
shrugged.
Anyhow I've tipped you off.
Don't accept any dates with
strange men and watch out for
fake telephone messages. Bill
will probably take his bad tenn
per out in threats but there's
always the off chance"
Heavy-hearted, the girl left
the police station. She had lost
a friend. She had received
terrifying information. That
it was terrifying she had con-
cealed from Mallory; she could
not conceal it from herself. She
had wiped Bill MCGEE from her
consciousness; to have him re-
turn in this disturbing guise
appalled, her. What form would
his reprisal take? What would
he try to do to her?
That night before she went
to bed she pushed a heavy

WASHINGTON FASHIONS By Wilma LdVi|e

Here's another recipe for
keeping cool on hot days. It's
the Normandy voiles, sheer,
dotted and cool. Many Of us
haven't considered them in our
summer plans, because we
think of them as rather cheap
and not quite as smart as the
clothes we are accustomed to.
But it oil depends on the way
they ere made up, and their
low price certainly shouldn't be
held against them these days.
It's true that they are mex
pensive, but they are sturdy
fabrics that preserve a good
appearance for a long time.
They do not muss easily. and
when made up simply with
nothing on them that will not
wash, they launder beautifully.
In Various Patterns
Another thing about Nor
mandys, they may be either
dark and streety looking, or
they can be in light colors, and
as gay as you please. A fresh,
crisp voile looks as lovely as an
organdie, if it is attractively
made. Cotton has such a white
look, and is no whittier in any
material than it is in voile.
This years materials have the
dots scattered either in de-
signs or regularly, so that you
can have all the variety you
want. The dark colors are made
up in suits and frocks to wear
on the street, and the white
voile has colored dots and trim
ming to match, so that you can
wear the dresses for afternoon.
Tailored Like Silk
We've sketched two partic-
ularly lovely voiles in white
with colored dots and trim
ming. On the left is dress we
saw in white and blue, the sash
and piping of thu blue taffeta
with the collar of mousseline
de sole, and the dots in blue
of course, 1t is lovely
dress for. in-betWeen sort of
occasions. On the right is a
white dress dotted in red, with
net on the collar, and red
sash. These frockS are as we'll
tailored as silk, and they have
their own slips with them,
which is quite another point in
their favor. They are priced
only 1895, slip and all, and are
in misses sizes.

you can find these dresses,

The opening lead was the K
of spades, followed by the Ace,
giving the defenders their first
2 tricks. Not wishing to allow
the declarer to discard upon a
third round of spades, while
dummy ruffed, West led his 9
of diamonds through dummy's
10. The 10 was played, forcing
East'S K, and losing to declar-
er'S Ace, but it left West in
good position to win a third
lead of diamonds.

ent. The declarer dared not
pull all the trumps before estab-
fishing dummy's hearts. He
really played the hand very
we'll to even fulfill his contract.
First the declarer won 2 trump
tricks in his own hand with the
Ace and Q of clubs. Then he
led his Q of hearts. AS he
expected, the Ace failed to ap-
pear. When the 7 of hearts
was led West dared no longer
hold up his Ace, as the declarer
might hold no more of that
suit. 1t could do no harm for
West to lead another round Of
hearts, and he did so. East
trumped the trick, giving his
side it's fourth and last defen-
Sive trick.
East led a diamond. The de-
clarer won with his Q, and re-
turned a trump. picking up the
last club held by West, and
allowing the declarer to discard
his two remaining diamonds
upon the two good hearts in
dummy. With his last trump
the declarer ruffed the third
diamond left in dummy, just
making his 3-odd. and only
then by careful play.
Tomorrow we will again look
over the holdings, to see if
North and South could not have
done better. The best make is
the one that is capable of yield
ing the greatest score.

To
LoveIorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX

Has Never Met ANY of His Family
Dear Miss Fairfax: I have
been going with a young man
steadily for nearly a year. He
has never asked me to meet
his parents. Every time we
happen to be out walking, he
never cares to pass the house
where he lives. We love each
other a great deal. What is
wrong? Is he ashamed of me,
or is he just bashful? I dress
we'll. He always tells me I look
so nice. I am proud to have
him meet my relatives. Why
does he act this way? B. B.
Several letters along the same
lines as yours have come to this
column lately. Here are some
of the solutions which have de.
veloped. In one case the main
stay of the family was the boys
pay envelope, and when any girl
appeared on the horizon there
were scenes at home.
In another case the parents
(an old world couple) had
picked out girl of their own
nationality and religion, and
the boy, preferring American
methods deciding on a girl him.
self, was submitted to scenes
when he went with anyone else.
Again young men are often
teased by their families, espe-
cially when they bring the girl
friends home to call. So don't
be discouraged. If you both
really care about each other.
you will meet this family sooner
or later. Don't try to force this

CHAPTER TEN
It seemed like a long wait
before she saw the Irishman's
familiar bulky figure swing
through the door. She had
known Mallory ever since she
could remember; the grizzled,
middle-aged policeman hao
walked L. and down her block
for 20 years; he was part OF
her childhood. She smiled ana
experienced an inward shock
when, for the first time in her
life, she received no answering
smile. Mallory approached,
dropped heavily to the bench
beside her. She had never
seen him look so stern, so
strange.
I'm ashamed Of you, Pa
kricia," he began and there was
disappointment in his face.
"Why L" she stammered.
"You're headed for trouble

impatient of interruption. Il

I knew something about human

to make him understand. Now
suddenly she did not. Her lips

She said defiantly, hos
tilely, did you ask me to come

''No," replied the man, II
didn't" His tone was cold and
distant. He bent forward and
said, what you do is no con-
Germ of mine or of the force
until you break the law. I
can see my advice as a friend
means nothing to you. But
I'm telling you this: MCGEE
gets out Of the hospital next
week and if I were you I'd
stay out of his way"
