As you might remember, mother used to be quite stout.
 Just then noticed one of those four crabs walking very slowly and very proudly, as it seemed. acr0ss the kitchen floor toward the pam try. I shrieked, and mother and Bob looked at me, then they fol- lowed my look and Bob jumped up and stepped on that dreadful thing.
 "oh, dear," my mother said. wiping for brow.
 But I tell you, the three of us surely had a laugh. Of course I never felt safe in the house, know ing of three more crabs walking around. But I never caught any more of them.
 This went through my mind while I was sitting there beside the dashing young man, exchang-H ing looks with him, blushing and so on. And then all at once \ knew where I had seen those blue eyes, and that curly blond hair. Why, that young man was Bobi nearly jumped up, as if a crab had bitten me too. I grabbed him by the arm, and said: Bob, do you remember those crabs?" He looked at me so surprised, and said slowly, Grabs? You mean crabs?"
 "Yes," I said, rather timorously. You know, I began to fear that it was not Bob, and he might thinls was going crazy.
 Are you Lucy Smith ?" he asked.
 "Yes, am," said. Then people began to look around and whisper something about peace disturbers, so Bob took me by the arm and said.s Let's get out of here.' Outside in the lobby he helped me get my coat on, and as he put 1t over my shoulder he looked around to see if anybody was look ing. Nobody was, so he folded his arms around me, and held me real tight for a minute. Then he said, You know, Lucy, I have been looking for you for ever so long. Why did you never write: to me after you moved away to Chicago?"
 But you know, May, what slow writer am, and told Bob so too.

Dear May: was going to write a letter to you three weeks ago | To do so had to go and get soms stationery. as mine was all gone. So I went out to the nearest drug store. I had to pass a show, and it looked very inviting to me. So what else could do but go in.
 The usher showed me to seat which was between an elderly lady and a man who chewed gum like nobody's business. Every seat in the neighborhood was taken, so changing mine to another was out of the question.
 The picture was very amusing, and the gum-chewing man laughed until he shook, and I began to think of what would happen if his seat should give in. Well, noth- ing happened. That is, to the gum ing man. Plenty happened in the picture, though, as the end was neaGing.
 At last the lights were turned on. People were leaving, and others were trying to get the best seat possible. To my relief, the gum chewing man was leaving. Well, what next, I thought to myself.
 But, oh dearl What a sight for sore eyes. A dashing young man took his seat. It was funny. l looked at him and he looked at me. We looked at each other again be- fore the house was darkened.
 The picture was coming along nicely, and while it did theIdashing young man and I exchanged looks and blushed; that is, felt myself blushing. Of course it was too dark to see whether he did or not. But then I took that for granted. The newsreel was about fishing, and I could not help but think of an incident which happened when I was 12 years old.
 It was on nice Saturday after noon. My boy friend, who was just as old as myself, and I went to a river to fish. My mother did not know about it, you know. She would not have liked it.
 We'll, there we sat on the river bank, waiting for a bite. At last Bob jumped up, shouting, "A bite. bite!" Sure enough. He pulled his line out and had-a crab.
 "Oh, heck" he said, disgusted.
 "What of it? Let's take it home" I suggested. "You can make de- licious soup out of them"
 Are you sure?" he asked me.
 "Of course am," said. Let's put it in my bag"
 So we put 1t in my handbag. We caught three more. Bob got dis gusted.
 "It's getting too crabby here," he said. Let's go home" So we did.
 I went into our kitchen and laid the bag on a chair, kind of upside

FROM CONFkB
WITH FARLEY
No Administration Help for
Any Senate Candidate,
He Declares.
By Times Special

ny ~ 6NEItbt
WASHINGTON, May 26.-Fol-
lowing what he termed very
friendly conferences" with Postmas-
ter-General James A. Farley and
his executive assistant, Ambrose
O'Connell, r. Earl Peters, candidate
for the Democratic nomination for
the United States senate, flew back
to FIT. Wayne yesterday.
Although a close friend of Mr..
Peters, Mr.. Farley, as national
Democratic chairman and Roosevelt
administration spokesman, will
take no public part in the pre-con-
vention campaign in Indiana, it was
understood.
This means that there will be no
green light for Mr.. Peters or any
other candidate so far as the Ia
tlonal administration is concerned.
They are following the hands of"
policy as announced by Senator
Frederick Van Mugs. Mr.. Peters
also called on Mr.. Van Mugs while
here and said he was treasured that
the senator really means hands
off" which is all hew ants, Mr..
Peters said.
He declared that he had suff-
Gent delegates to be nominated or
the first ballot and expressed the
belief that no other candidates
names will be placed in nomination.
While here Mr.. Peters also made
an effort to procure an air mail
route from Detroit to Toledo with
stopovers at TT. Wayne and Indian
apolis. The project was turned down
the day before his arrival. but is to
be restudied by the postal authori-
ties, Mr.. Peters said.

asserted Mr. Hoke.
"NRA is conceived, written en-
acted and is being administered Just
as much for the benefit of the en-
ployer as for the employe-possibly

Shortly before his address, the
convention heard DR.. Edwin KEN

condemn the present inflationary
policies of the government at Wash
