Miss Yorke," he said quietly, II brush my
teeth and change my collars. but I just don't
fit In your crowd I'm total loss socially.
I'm much more at home with Jim Of the Clam
House"
I'm desolate to think I've been boring you"
Riss said elaborately, and turned her back
squarely on him.
Paul and Don, bit flustered. started noisy
setting-up exercises. And Margery grinned in
triumph at John Hill. Behind his back she
could see Riss pick up his book, leaf1ng it over
with the idle air of a shopper who doesn't intend
to buy. In just minute Riss would be SWIM
ming away, the crowd after her, and there
would be peace again.
Evening star., 1933-06-25

"Then 90 ahead and read" she said trying
to smooth down his diffidence Just stay on
the raft You don't have to meet the crowd"
Tor the next two mornings the crowd let
] them alone Mornings Of peace, browsing
in the sun, talking when it suited them. They
had no inquisitiveness about each other. Mar
gerry felt she knew all about John Hill, just as
he must know about her.
On the third morning John began reading
aloud in a lazy voice:
In Xanadn did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-donne decree,
Where Alph the sacred riper, ran
Through c1peTnS n1eGsWele3s to man
DOi1n to q sunless sea.
The cadences inclosed her like the waves
tapping the raft. Margery slept.
so sorry to intrude" a voice caroled.
The crowd was clambering up on the raft
briny noisy laughing. Margery looked at John
Hill, and the shrug Of his shoulders told her
their peace had ended She introduced Riss
Louise Sam, Don, Paul. He gave each little
nod then gazed at the distant Connecticut
shore.
Margery knew what to expect. Clarissa Yorke
had come to find out about John Hill. Swiftly
Margery reviewed what she herself knew, after
three mornings. John was studying law In
somebody's Office in New York, he didn't like
his stepfather, his bathing suit was last years
and his hat looked like fiotsam hshed out Of
the sound. That was all.
Kiss talked Of polo, regattas, debuts at the
Colony Club, Betty So-and-so, Jay This-and-
that But John nibbled at none of her lines
She even asked him If he knew the most in
effable hostess on Long Island. you know Mrs
Carter Reynolds, of course?"
John looked If he were at the end of his
rope and Margery intervened. "Riss is that
way" she told him. She's always looking for
somebody that knows Mrs. Carter Reynolds
None Of US do But Riss Is always hoping"
John shot Margery look Of pure gratitude
She had given him a moments advantage and
he squared his big shoulders
Evening star., 1933-06-25

But Margery was wrong
Riss turned to John with the frendliest smile.
Were all playing mixed doubles at my house
this afternoon" she said. Won't you come
along, Mr.. HIP"
The crowd strangled down its amazement.
But Riss ruled the crowd and it followed her
lead. Don, of all people. offered to lend John
Hill a racquet. Paul volunteered to call for
him at the Clam House at 4.
Most amazing Of all, John accepted this
sudden cordiality gratefully. Perhaps, Margery
reflected, he hadn't loved being alone On the
raft with her. Perhaps all this time, he'd been
just plain lonely and too proud to admit it.
tNA /ELL, he's in everything up to his ears
w now" Margery thought a week later.
She was alone on the raft. John was usually
off fishing or sailing with Den or escorting Riss
on her morning errands in Cotasset
Riss had informed the crowd that she thought
John Hill a born charmer Shed set Cotasset
into social delirium for him, got him invi-
taticns to everything, on the horizon, and given
a dance for him herself He had been assigned
a locker at the club lent white hannels, pre-
sented with dancing pumps by 2am.
Margery sighed and stretched her .eES Riss
was clever. Sometimes she made dazzling fe-
marks that every one said should be in print.
Perhaps they have been," Margery thought.
and then mewed aloud at herself. Cat" she
said.
Kitten, would say And John rose out
of the water behind her.
NO" Margery confessed. I'm just
immature cat. can prove it to YOU You're
here because Riss has gone to New York, and
Riss has gone to New York to spend her whole
Fall allowance Summer clothes because
there's a new"
But Johns hand had closed gently over her
mouth 'Dcnt say it. Don't feed my vanity.
I'm fairly reeking now"
I'm glad you admit it," she said II suppose
I shall have to join the social stampede and
give you party, too"
He studied her face. "Yes, do" he urged.
Evening star., 1933-06-25

THE crowd was fabbergasted Riss, her sleek
black head erect, said she couldn't under
stand people who were anti-crashers one day,
and the next to turn the club into a road
house.
"Riss' Margery said slowly, I've gone
along with you this Summer about no make
up till evening, and no cutting-in without In
Productions and all that. I don't like sloppy
manners, either hate crashing more than
you do. But"
"Well?" Riss demanded acidly
well, it sounds horrid, but I'm willing to
bet that if Mrs Carter Reynolds and her Long
Island set came out tomorrow for crashing
you'd tag along
The crowd watched her try to stalk down
the beach She wasn't a successful stalker
she was too small and softly rounded They
watched her dive with beautiful clean arc.
Riss smiled She's over it already. Lunch
time. fellow snobs'
After her fifth dive, Margery glanced at the
deserted beach and swan out to the raft. She
circled around it, making no more splash than
a SEAL then lifted herself up silently. For
10 minutes there was quiet an absolute and
heavenly quiet. The stranger didn't know she
was there, and soon she forgot him.
The gentle sound of a book closing made
her remember the stranger. He was sitting
up, with his arms around his knees, looking
at her.
Nice out here" he said casually.
Heavenly" she sighed Il meant to leave
you alone, you know. I didn't mean to in
trude" Shed forgotten the raft didn't be-
long to the stranger.
You're the least intrusive person I've ever
SEEN" he assured her.
so are you" Her violet eyes turned to his
frankly
Lets start club" he suggested. "An ex-
elusive club. Intruders excluded"
She hesitated. But let's find another raft
This one belongs to a club already, very in
trusive club"
oh" He looked embarrassed. IT thought
it was just a natural island. I'm sorry"
That's all right" she assured him hastily.
That's why I swan out. I wanted to warn
you"
Thanks" he said rather shortly "IIl keep
off"
She was distressed. "Oh, no! That's not
what mean. I wanted to warn you against
the crowd. You see, the clubs trying to be
very snooty this Summer"-she saw him
struggling with a grin-"and they got the
silly idea that you were a-were from Jms
Clam House" She made gesture toward the
joval third-rate establishment down the beach.
"As it happens" he said shortly, I'm staying
at Jins Clam House"
She didn't know what to say. She looked
blankly at him, caught the sudden twinkle in
his eyes, and they both laughed. He had the
most enchanting smile. 1t ran away with her
judgment. She said blithely I'm going to
give you a guest card, MI"
John Hill"
"Margery Venn" She reached out small
hand
Thank you, Margery Venn. But really you
mustn't bother about me- dont know . soul
in Cotasset, and I'm not used to"-he
struggled a bit-"to this sort Ut place, you
know. Anyway, 1 have only M weeks va

> HE year before, they'd done good
bit of crashing. But this Summer,
when they'd all come back to Cotas-
set Riss had announced that crash
ing was vulgar, and that she'd never
drift casually through any Long
Island doorway again Margery Venn was
thoroughly relieved. She'd hated slipping into
dances from the Sound or through the hedge.
But she was younger than the rest of the
Crowd. and they'd adored her and bossed her
since she was a baby.
Shed backed up RiSs SO wholeheartedly
about crashing that the crowd was fabber-
gasted when she defended the man on the
raft.
They were all lying as usual on the Cotasset
Club beach, hating to 60 home to lunch, when
Riss sat up and said, There he is again"
Who's where again?" Don Munson in
quired drowsily.
The man out there the raft with the
Rcbinsin Crusoe hat. We've got to shoe him
off"
At that Sam Richards and Paul Stone sat
up too Riss had made the crowd crash
conscious. On the clubs farthest raft, so far
that it was little solitary island, the intruder
lay on his stomach, his head under its ri
diculous straw hat propped on his elbows.
Paul grunted. Reading. Darned if he isn't"
Margery was thinking They've discovered
him and he's been so peaceful out there"
Shed envied the stranger
Don Munson shook Pauls shoulder. Come
on fella," he said. Its probably some one
from Clam House. Let's chisel that chiseler
off our raft"
Margery suddenly furious. Perhaps it
was Don's tone, proprietary and SNUG Don't

BY order of the board of direc-
tors, the Board of Trade was
closed in grain futures today
following the most hectic day in
its history, in which prices
dropped from 10 cents to more
than 25 cents a bushel. Re-

ranges in all grains.
The directors voted the closing
order at a meeting last night.
The closing order was said to
have the approval of Secretary

fluctuations in grain futures,
suspending trade in indemnities

Adoption Of a flat S. fee for
automobile licenses in Virginia is
recommended in a letter sent out
by the Arlington County Chamber
of Commerce to all chambers of
commerce in the State.
Under the plan proposed by
the chamber the balance of the
tax, which is now on a basis of
10 cents a hundredweight, would
be from the gasoline tax levy.
It is pointed out that this
would relieve the small car owner
from a large burden and at the
