view with Gordon the day she arrived 1t
would have been very pleasant, Lynn thought.
If they had included her in the tete-a-tete at
the club. She could have driven into town and
been there to bring Betty and her bags back.
Quite conveniently
What is this? A vacation?" Lynn could
not refrain asking once they were upstairs.

in front of the poudreuse and pushed up her
hair. We'll I suppose it might as well be

Not if Gordon can find anything for me to

dear. You don't mind? I didn't sleep wink

"Of course not Do try to sleep" Lynn
moved to turn down the bed covers. Shall I
call you in time for dinner?'
Don't bother. I'll be awake"
Yes, something was afoot, Lynn decided.

through the hall on her way upstairs. She
heard him ask Dagny
"Is this Mr.. G. D. Miller's home?"
"Ya," Dagny answered with her poisonous
cordiality.
"Is his sister, Miss Betty"
Coon right in Dagny would do her noblest
for any ones boy friend.
He stood in the entrance hall facing Lynn
by the dim light of the twin hall lamps under
the mirror panel and Lynn saw that he did not
recognize her. But, of course, he had known
her as Lynn Dorchester. not as Mrs. Miller.

and Gordon; the only person. the only thing
that had ever come between them. The in
evitable fly in the ointment
The day she came Gordon had one of the
girls from the Office to call Lynn to say that
he had met Betty, taken her over to the club
for luncheon and was sending her out in a taxi.
She would be with them a month or 50 and
her trunk would arrive that afternoon.
In their letters back and forth Lynn and
Faith had promised one another frequent visits
with their husbands. The Miller -Whitcomb
foursome, they laughingly called 1t. For the
husbands must certainly meet and Faith, es-
pecially, must know Gordon, whom she would
most certainly approve. Would Gordon who
Lynn felt was inclined to be somewhat Puri-
tanical, approve of Fred? Well, that remained
to be seen
IA /HILE Lynn busted herself polishing the
w cut crystal toilet accessories that stood On
the poudreuse, and the pair of pale blue por-
celain lamps win cream yellow shades In the
guest room, she imagined here q good heart
warming visit with Faith, renewing the conf
dences that five years of marriage and life
had interrupted. Lynn herself had been mar
ried three years; but Carol Ann was just
weeks old on the wedding day and Faith had
not been able to come.
Now here she was thought Lynn, preparing
for Betty again. It did seem as If Betty had
spent sufficient time in this guest room.
She was thinner than ever, Lynn thought,
when the taxi driver had depositd Betty and
her fleet of luggage in the entrance hall. She
had always had deceptive, apparently passion
less young wrath of body that could lose
itself in the slinkiest of small-model gowns;
and-an added insult-bg eyes that always
conveyed the impression that she was being
invaled home from some tragic experience Yet
today she had definitely dark circles under her
eyes and her skin a real pallor that no powder
could counterfeit
Aren't you we'll Betty? You're so thin"
Betty's smile acknowledged the compliment.
"Isn't it terrible? I've lost 16 pounds" She
drew off her new suede gloves and pushed up
one dark green kasha sleeve to display pipe
stem arm.
You're absolute skeleton" Lynn cried
with the enthusiasm that seemed to be de-
manded. What have you been doing? Falling
in love?"
Betty pulled down her sleeve and abruptly
picked up hat bag. Can Dagny help me up
with these?"
I'll carry these two. Dagnys making

herself, trying to be fair Faith had always
told her that she had certain tendencies in her
disposition which co-ordinated the suspicious
glints in her hair. Lynn knew that Betty wor-
SHIPPED Gordon, who was the family eldest and
the one whose advice and legal mind were con-
sdered infalhble. She knew that Gordon was
devoted to Betty because he had been trained
to do her bidding from the moment she was
able to cry for anything she wished

now was deliberately being kept from her Bet
Evening star., 1933-10-15

OF course, thought Lynn, the whole trouble
~ was that Fred Whitcomb had never loved
Faith in the first place. Hadn't Faith ever
found that out, Lynn wondered?
There had been plenty of other girls before
Fath-Freds best man had told Lynn all about
it at the wedding-but one especially who had
for reasons of her own thrown Fred over for
an Englishman and gone to London to live.
Fred's friends, the best man said, were relieved
to see old Fred pick up his pride and go on.
They seemed to regard Faith as stalwart coast
guard who had done rescue with life pre-
server, instead of starry eyed, adored bride.
Faith herself had been deeply in love with
Fred: Lynn was convinced Of that.
Now here was this matter of Fred's secre-
tary.
IT it ,uere just for myself it might be
different; but there is Carol Anne. Is it
fair for me to let this girl tDdlk of un-
challenged ,pith Carol Annes daddy be-
fore the child is old enough to fight for
her o,pn rights?
No. Lynn, mol 1t isn't. is it? I hope
duty to the child, haven't +? I must
fight.
Somehow it seems to me that I must
1Drite and erpldin all this to the girl.
She can't possibly understand -.
When Betty came it seemed to Lynn that all
her old antagonism toward Gordon's sister rose
within her to such q pitch as made it almost
impossible for her to be agreeable She had
never liked Betty.
Gordon had announced q few days before
that Betty was to be expected She had writ
ten Gordon at his office, which always made
Lynn furious. He had not brought home the
letter, nor would she ask to see it.
Lynn did inquire, '1s It q vAcaton?"
Gordon replied shortly, ri suppose 30" Lynn
felt the chill Of his reply. It did not help to
remember that Betty always came between her

- AITHS letter arrived the same day that
Betty descended bag and baggage for
l. a months visit. Afterward Lynn saw.
of course that this was no mere COIN
cidence but at the time she had been
too disturbed by what the postrsan and
expressman had done to her to put two and
two together. Besides, Lynn. as she tolo
Faith years later, knew nothing of the de-
tails of Betty's business affairs. Nor careo
greatly Betty was private secretary In some
New York bank; Lynn did not even know which
one. Naturally Lynn always addressed letters
when she must write-to Betty's apartment
The letter from Faith took Lynn back-as
Faiths letters always did-to college days and
the room they had shared together Tor three
years at the sorority house.
She slit the square envelope addressed IN

0IL-WHIRLING MACHINE
TESTS FOR "OILINESS"
Separator Determines Durability Of
Lubricants in Half Hour
"Like World Flight"
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December IA dis
covery that the "oiliness" in oil acts
like the cream in milk was reported to
the American Society of Mechanical en-
gineers yesterday by c. NJ Larson of
New York
He described new machine, work
ing like the milkman's cream separator,
which whirls oil at speeds of two to
six miles a minute. It separates from
the ordinary oil substance which looks
just like oil, but which chemists have
not yet been able to differentiate from
the whole oil.
This substance is the real "oiliness," !"
the material which makes oil slippery
and gives its lasting qualities in motors
The value Of the oil separator Is for
testing. In 80 minutes it shows up the
qualities Of any oil as thoroughly as a
round world flight.
The new test is expected to substi-
tute for viscosity. the present method

VETS PROBLEMS
DISCUSSED BY

acted economic law, was urged by
Mrs. Isabella Greenway Of Tucson
in a talk before members of the

"The problem at hand and of
paramount Importance is to enlist
the interest Of Arizona's substan-
tia1 citizens and Immediately assim-
ilate the facts about the veteran,
educate the public, re-instate the
responsibility and welfare of the
ex-service man where it properly
belongs in the minds Of right
thinking people and then, through
the combined effort Of the conSer-
vative veteran and citizen, help the
administration to such economies as
can be effected justly" she said.
by justly, I mean through sacri-
flee without suffering and in wish
ing to keep faith with the admins
tration.
"It is suggested that we, every
one of us, step into this picture with
the sincere purpose of convincing
ourselves to what extent economies
may be effected through sacrifice
without suffering. Let us share the
responsibility of bringing this about,
cooperating with the ex-service
men today as we did Is years ago
