SHANGHAI ROSE
By ANNE FORESTER
Author Of -Spits Wife"

Larry, unfamiliar-looking and i'm
pressive in the black-and- white glory
of evening attire, his brown hair more
wildly disordered than ever. seemed
taller and more boyish than usual
against the background of the three
people who followed him into the lit
tie living room.
Bill Price, described by Larry as
"the best editorial writer the Mer-
curry ever had," seemed thoroughly
we'll aware of that, and his other
qualifications Dark and handsome,
he had the perfect and assured man
ner of one who has always known
that he had everything. and was a
little amused by the opinions of others,
just sa long as they did not conflict
with his you felt that in ac-
companying you into the sacrosant
circle of society he bestowed an ac-
colade all his own.
His feminine companion. presenting
an almost ludicrous contrast to his
composed correctness, was referred to
by the assembled party as Bessie. "
Rose, meeting Larry's quizZical smile,
searched her memory for his explana-
ton of the strange due. Bessie, "
Larry had explained the night before,
lis going to hand you shock-espe-
cially when you meet Bill Price. But
Bessie's a good kid. even If she does
think manual labor is a Mexican
she's got lot of illusions, but
she can cook like nobody's business.
Bill thinks she's swell"
Bill would, Rose reflected. Bessie
was just the type to sit at his well
shined boots with adoring, uplifted
gaze. while Bill. free to follow his
own secret, subtle pursuits, accepted
it as his comfortable due, and waited
for the applause. Bill, Rose told her
self, with an inward smile, would have
made perfectly gorgeous Sultan.
Ugly and plump, her dark hair
combed straight back from a broad
brow, enormous pearl earrings in her
ears and ready. flashing smile that
displayed set of teeth whittier and
more perfect than the pearls. That
was Bessie. Her frankly buoyant
spirits rose triumphant above the
hideously clashing colors in the en-
broidered smock she wore over a cir
cular skirt of obviously ancient
lineage The smock. she hastened to

not resist wearing tonight. It had
been gift from boy friend in
Russia. "One of Lenin's friends-you
know" Bessie motioned vaguely.
Bessie, Rose was to discover, numbered
her friends only among the promi-
nent of the earth.
George McCloud, who had been
lingering with his wife in the back
ground, came forward, propelled by
Larrys enthusiastic arm. George
proved TO be q rather sad-looking
young man in a tired-looking tuxedo
OF undoubtedly expensive origin. He
extended an awkward hand, withdrew
1t witt a jerk, then extended 1t again
to shake Roses hand with a vigor
that brought a satirical smile to the
thin lips Of his wife.
How do you do, Mrs. Therrod-so
glad to be here )" Mrs. McCloud,
a pale, slender woman, wore her pale
gold hair in fiat loops above earrings
of incredible length and brilliance.
She had narrow light eyes with curl
ously analytical light in their shallow
depths and an expression of profound
boredom and indifference. She was
dressed in clinging lengths of water
melon pink chiffon and wrapped in
an embroidered silk shawl the fringes
Of which caught continually and an

Lottie, peering around the jamb of
the bed room door, as Rose bent for
a last kiss on the sleeping Kittens

liant whisper.

day back of Roses gray eyes had
begun to burn like twin candles.
There was singing in her blood.
Larry's car, rounding the curve Of
the country club drive, came painting
to q stop.
There lay the bricked terrace beside
the lily pool. The gay striped UNI
brellas. the little painted tables
and chairs, the wicker couches with
their magazine racks just as
Roses fancy had painted them SO
often. From within the chintz-hung
club rooms came the sound of high
laughter, the swish of silk, the scrap
ing of furniture, the quick tap of
small heels across a polished floor.
Outside the wide windows men clus-
tered in small groups, hailing one
another with the easy. casual greet
ings of people who saw no reason to
exert themselves.
Bessie, welding a dingy powder
puff with more vigor than effect,
pirouetted impatiently on the tagged
porch. Gosh, am I hot? Want to
park your coat in the dressing room,
Mrs. Therrold? It's right over
here. :"

Cloud murmured with significant en-
phasis. ARE surely no novelty to Mrs.

as they advanced toward the club en-
trance, gave a wrathful tug to his
wife's draperies. Nov listen" he
growled darkly, IF you're going to be
like that tonight"

the thrust nor the rebuke. Her eyes,

pressed through the doorway in Lar

MIAMI, Fla, February 21.-Florida's S
Racing Commission set its foot down
hard today to stamp out fraud and
illegal practices at all racing plants
in the State.
In one of the most sweeping ac-
tions since pari-mutuel wagering was
legal;zed four years ago, the super
vising body found two of its own en-
ployes guilty of charges Of conspiracy
to defraud, and permanently barred a
race horse owner from all State tracks
in an intensified investigation of ami
nal doping.
1t also decided to prohibit freak
race exhibitions" such as monkey
jockeys riding greyhounds and ostrich
racing with women jockeys, and all
match racing between two dogs in
special events.
After an executive session of the
commission, Walter A. Donovan, sec
retary, announced that Grady Ham
mond and j. N. Miller, judge and
chief inspector, respectively. for the
organization, had been found guilty
by the membership of charges of con-
spiracy to defraud in the mutuels
room at the West Flagler Kennel Club
here. They were ruled off all tracks
in the State.
