Ewes funds were so limited that
it seemed advisable to concentrate

Eve glanced at the pretty young

That afternoon she worked swift

mented on her mood.
AT 2.30 she sent the office boy to
buy copy Of the stock edition Of
an evening newspaper. When it
came Eve turned excitedly to the
financial page. Pure Soap, Inc,
had gone up two points
Eve made a mental note Of her
profit When it goes up 10 points"
she decided. I'll sell and reinvest
the profit in something else. Oh,
this is going to be fun"
That evening she watched Dick
as ne unfolded the final edition
which was always waiting for them
at the hall door when they arrived
home He scanned page one and
then turned to the financial pages
which he peruSed thoroughly before
turning back TO read the local news.
Eve had not known before that
Dick was interested in stock quota

n Eve had tried to avoid Freda
Garter. She blamed FTeda for the
unpleasant incident with Theron
Reece.
But when Freda invited Eve to
a party in her apartment the next
evening there seemed nothing to do
but accept the invitation. The buy
er had come to the advertising office
with some frocks for Marya to
sketch. AS she was leaving, she
turned abruptly toward Eve
"Oh. I almost forgot" Freda said.
I'm throwing a party tomorrow
night and Id love to have you girls
come"
She had only a slight acquaint-
ance with Mona Allen, and her
glance was for Eve and Arlene. but
before either Of them could reply,
Mona gave FTeda a melting smile
and exclaimed, "Oh. how perfectly
sweet of you'll I'd simply adore a
party"
Mona paused expectantly.
Without particular cordially
Freda assured Mona that she was
glad she could come. Arlene also
accepted the invitation.
Eve liked Freda but she coulo
never be sure about FredaS friends.
