vacy. Patricia was satisfied.
She had lived in worse places.
Next afternoon, promptly at
8 o'clock, she returned to the
Hotel Beaucarme. Wally Edge,
her partner of the day before,
was on the lookout for her. He
greeted her effusively and then
to her surprise he drew her
from the card room to the
lobby adjoining.
"I've got a couple of lambs
in tow" he announced in sur
reptitious glee. did you see
them by the door? Those birds
don't know a hand from a
foot. All we've got to do is to
get our signals Strengthened out
beforehand and we're in clo-
ver."
Patricia regarded the mans
jubilant round face with dis
favor. I'm afraid I don't un-
derstand," she said coldly.
Don't kid me, sister. You
don't play bridge for fun any
more than I do. I watched you
yesterday. You were out to
win"
Certainly I was out to win
fairly"
The faint emphasis on the
last word appeared to discom-
fort the man. Wally Edge was
a card sharp of sorts. His

ought at least to let them look
like soldiers and not wrap them
up in gunny-Sack.
Ever since soldering began,
the one big advantage the mill
tary man has had over the
civilian has been his big draw
with the girls. Rome gave her
boys shiny armor and helmets,
the armies Of the Middle Ages
looked like the second act cur
tain Of "Strike Me Pink" and
even in the early days Of our
century, a British army-post
resembled something that the
Architectural League would put
on at the Waldorf, with it's
red coats and natty hattings.
The United States never had
much of an eye for toggery
in it's uniforms, but it did the
best it could, and those snug,
dark-blue tunics and light blue
trousers weren't so ineffective
with the gals in the Spanish
War days. In our own time,
even a Marine has been known
to make a little headWay.

Patricia Strengthened. Her
eyes were very bright. She di-
vided the bills she had dis
played so gleefully, placed $25
on the table, tucked $40 into
her pocketbook. All this in
silence.
She said then, quietly, to
Leda, 'I'm going to find an
other place to live. It's evident
that Phil and I don't see things
eye to eye"
Leda did not argue. It was
no use. She did say, But,

him airily. His objection set
tied the matter for her. She took
the money. Later at the door,
when he was not watching, she
attempted to return it. Patricia
refused. She tried to thank
Leda for all her kindness but
the other brusquely refused to
listen. The two girls kissed and
parted. They understood each

than on ethics. He was careful
though.
He said now, almost haugh-
tily, "Are you inferring that I
hoped to win unfairly?"
II was inferring nothing at
ALL" Patricia informed him
smoothly. Widening her eyes a
trifle she added, "JuSt for a
minute I was afraid you meant
to propose some private under
standing between us. I see
now how wrong I was"
She did not intend to make
an enemy of this man if it
were possible to avoid it. In
her situation she could not af-
ford to make enemies. Momen-
tarily Edge wavered. Inwardly
he was furious. But after all
Patricia had saved his face, left
him a loophole of escape. He
took it.
He said with assumed hearth
ness, "I should say you were
wrong. I wouldn't put up with
anything like that, never have.
That kind of thing doesn't pay.
All I meant was that we should
bid more flexibly than we did
yesterday, especially on third

hand light"

The BOYS in Uniform
-Bv ROBERT BENCHLEY

But when the Great War
came (and, by the way, when
did it stop?) the designers in
charge of the worlds military
uniforms went rugged on us.
The idea seemed to be to
bundle the boys. up in some
thing warm and let it go at
that. Not only were khaki and
olive-drab, the worlds two most
nauseating colorS, adopted
with some idea of camou-
flage), but extra pains were
taken to fit the private out
in something that was made
for Paul Whiteman in his old
days. Not only was a young
man camouflaged from the
enemy's guns, he was camou-
flaged out of recognition by his
parents except when there was
a strong light on his face.
Since the war nobody has
paid much attention to the
boys in khaki. (We're telling
themD They are still camou-
flaged, pres sum bly, against
thunder storms. The officers
have tidied up little, but even
they aren't so hot. A photo
graph of the new uniforms
adopted recently for the Brit
ish Territorials shows them to
have been dressed up like Polish
refugees from Russia, with
everything but tn cir feet
wrapped up in potato sacks.

Since his arrival from Washing

somewhat of a mystery 10 the boys

of secrecy which attends the special

Yesterday, Agent Johnson con-
fronted four boys charged with
transporting an automobile across
the state line. The car in which
they rode is an ancient flivver val
ued at about $40 The quartet vas
arrested on their way from Tennes-
see to Detroit.
Arraigned before Howard s.
Young, United States commissioner
the four boys, Albert Brazeau
Harry Cherewick and John and Joe
Horvath, pleaded that they we're
innocent and Cherewick protested
that he had bought the car in Ten
nessee.
In answer to questioning of Com
missioner Young, Special Agent
johnson who had a whole brief
case of evidence) admitted that he
had not been in touch with the
automobile dealer.
If these boys had lawyer here, "
said Commissioner Young. I'VE could
never hold them on the evidence
you have presented
Howard Coughran, assistant
district attorney, obtained the re-
lease OF Albert Brazeau, who seemed
least involved.
Reluctantly, Commissioner Young
held three of the boys under $1,000
bond apiece. They probably will
stay in jail over Christmas and
through January until the federal
grand jury gets around to their
case.
Albert Reagan, the boy who was
released, said Indignantly:
III take up the sleuthing job
where the special agent left off. I'm
going to prove these boys innocent.
I'll get in touch with the Tennessee
auto dealer Immediately and get
them out of Jail by Christmas if I
can"
