"PLAyGIRLS IN LOVE"

But though Judith tried to
join in their mood and be gay
and laugh at their small jokes
and playful Sallies, her mind
was turning the question Of
Barry and Jack Ordway. They
were at the Graves home now,
those two. Jack had telephoned
from there. She was afraid she
wouldn't have been morally
strong enough to hold out and
keep this date against such
pleading, if it had come from
Barry!
On A Side Street
The taxi pulled up before a
couple of steps that led down to
an iron-grilled door on a side
street in the Village. Above the
door swung a Signboard with a
bizarre-looking bird painted on
it.
This was the Purple Parokeet.
The four got out, Freddy rang
the bell, a panel slid back in
the door, and an Irish face
peered through the grating at
them.
Freddy gave his name in suit

incessant popping of corks and
clink of ice, and beyond it lay
the kitchens and the restaurant.
The four passed through, into
an oblong room that was clever
ly laid out to represent mini
ature jungle. Trellises hung
with trick fruits and artificial
leaves separated the tables. The
main lighting of the room came
from Illuminated cages where
live birds chirped, and from a
purplish-blue moon that cast an
unearthly radiance.

CIVIL WORKSOF !. GOVERNMENT IS LIABLE TO STAY
May Become Permanent
 Body to Take Care of All Unemployment.
BY RAYMOND CHAPTER Copyright 1888 by United Press)

Copyright 1888 by United Press) Washington, Dec S.-(UP)- Launched as stop-gap emergency effort to put 4,000,000 men to work, the Civil Works Administration is regarded by some in the adminis- tration as a possible permanent substitute for unemployment in- surance and old age pensions.
 z Among those holding this view is Harry M. Hopkins, director of CWA.
 Officially the experiment runs administration refuses to think of turning 100000 men back on charity in mid-winter. It expects to ask congress for money to car ry on for an extended time.
 More than this, Hopkins told the United Press to-day he believed the. CWA had possibilities of be- coming 9 permanent institution.
 Tt might easily lead to a scheme of using civil works as a device for permanently providing work on important public projects for the unemployed" he said. "The coun- try Is hot going to be kindly dis posed to unemployment insurance in terms of men going up to a win- dowto get dole"
 Those possibilities have caused many here to regard the CWA as one of the most significant of the recovery agencies.
 ''Men could be put to work on things not naturally in the compe- tive scheme" Hopkins said. For instance work like the eco is do- ing. am convinced that agency is here to stay. It is, doing work

eraI sentiment of the board seemed to be that if the CWA projects for the school would be sufficient for this time and so the addition, which had been supported at a re- cent board meeting, is still as mythical as the state football championship.
 The matter of school physicians being required under Q new law to send notice of a disease or a defect in pupils to parents or guardians and in the case of children whose progress in education might be ma terially affected by such disease, send a similar notice to the state education board, was considered and 1t was decided to ask the six local doctors in their regular ex- aminati1ns in January to make such reports.

 As predicted in the Democrat yesterday, Supt Chittenden gave re- ceipts and expenditures on the ath- letic field from 1928 through 1893 and the figures show that the ex. penditures for six year period to- toled $10,666.13 and the receipts for the same time amounted to $10.S72.52, bearing out Supt Chit tenden's statement that whatever he manages to collect, he spends most of 1t during the year on the field itself. q want to have every body know what has been done there" he said, "in order to correct any misconceptions" He stated the $5,OOO received from insurance in the fire there was used to put in a new fence on the north and and to purchase bleacher seats.
 He said there Is Q general down. ward trend in receipts and stated he doubted whether it would be possible to maintain the field in- definitely without an appropriation for 1t being set up.
 Tight Squeeze Financially < The board voted to pay the ex- penses of a local girl committed to the. New Haven county home. This is required by law. Supt Chitten- den said in commenting on the f. nancial report which showed a net expense of $121,465.13 thus far, that 1t would be tight squeeze as to whether or not the budget would be exceeded. This amounts to $174,500. There are some items in 1t which have been exceeded thus far. he said, but other items have not cost as much a3 expected and they balance the previous ones, he thinks. However, a number of un- expected, expenses have material. ized this year, and the margin of leeway. if there be any, will be small, he asserted. He expects a drop in the school census. s The scarlet fever situation seems im- proved. He reported 3342 pupils had. joined tho junior, Red Cross, contributing $129.95.

 "Even in the best times we have 100000 or more men out of work and a portion of these could be thus absorbed and saved from charity. Then there is a percent age of old people, unable to work. They have no purchasing power for they are dependent upon charity. Unemployed who are able to work could be utilized to produce oods for those who cannot work. Such goods would go to people who can- not buy anyway and private tn- dustry wuld lose nothing"
 One of. the advantages of flexi- bie setup like CWA, Hopkins be- lieves, is that if heavy industries were tagging CWA work could stimulate them. Or emphasis could be shifted on a geographical
