was startled. therefore, TO find him
self unhappy. to find himself trying
to reason out a way where he could
have all this and Betsy, too. Other
men managed situations like this.
They had wives whom they married
for one reason or another and at the
same time enjoyed life, apart and
secret, from the public. 1t was going
to be difficult. Betsy was idealistic;
she dreamed beautiful things that fair
ly glowed through her skin; she danced
to music no one else ever heard. Still,
she was sane and practical. Marriage
to her would be q glamorous and
glorified state. Anything else would
have to be offered to her drenched in
the intoxicating perfume of romance.
In any event he had to have her. He
had to! If he went about 1t in the
right way he probably could. But not
at too high a price-not at sacrifice
Of the Stockton background and all 1t
stood for.
Upstairs. Libby poised for q moment
on the Threshold of her fathers
room. Her green eyes were as bright
as cats, and there was q curve on
her scarlet lips that was indicative of
self-satisfaction almost.
Edward Stockton rose slowly from
his desk. A tall man, with gray hair,
gray eyes beneath shaggy brows. A
man whose broad shoulders filled the
cobalt silk dressing gown. He took
Libby's ermine wrap and pointed i'm
periously to q chair.
"Sit down, Libby. There are some
things that you and must talk about. "
Libby stretched out languidly in
a club chair. crossing her long silken
legs, the folds Of her black satin skirt
falling gracefully to the floor, her
arms behind her head. Something an
noying was, she told herself, impend-
ing. The atmosphere was charged
with antagonism. Her father for some
reason and for the first time in his life
was arrayed against her. Not that
that worried her. She knew that she
could handle him. She could melt
him with smile, with a touch Of her
fingertips, with little pouting airs
that he had never been able to resist.
She smiled now and took cigarette
from the carved teakwood box on the
table, inserted 1t into her long, dia-
mond-studded holder and lighted it.
She blew o careless cone Of smoke
rings toward the ceiling, spearing the
holes with slim, crimson-tipped fore
finger.

ever, will cause student officers to de-

of the ratings attained and should

Institutional Value Kept.
During recent months the War De-

thought to devising some plan that
would reduce the abuse and misuse of
approved solutions without denying to
students the Institutional value Of
the solutions. AS a means Of accom-
plishing the desired purpose, it has
been decided to provide for each sub
course one study unit, the approved
solution to which may be withheld
from students without detriment to
the Institutional value of the sub
course. Subcourses to be completely
revised and those initially prepared
for the 1886 school year and for
subsequent years will be prepared in
accordance with the following:
Each subcourse will consist OF rated
lessons and an examination or re-
view lesson. The examination will
consist 0f O cariae ~ o,,as<{o~. oou.~

subcourse, while review lesson could
be a map problem dealing with but
one phase Of the tactical principle or
principles previously given in other
lessons Of the subcourse. One hun

lesson and to the examination or
review lesson. Approved solutions will

vided the student has attained a
rating Of IS per cent or more on each
lesson and on the examination or re-

~ EGINALD, the Stocktons' Eng
- hsh butler, opened the door
N for Libby and Marshall that
"Your father is in his room, Miss
Libby. He asked me to say that you
were to come up there before you saw
your mother.
Reginald stared at Marshall, his
enigmatical eyes not lighting up, the
expression not changing. But the
brain behind that inscrutable mask
was taking in the tall, dark, young man
that Miss Libby had married. He was
thinking: 1.-TWO of kind If ever I saw
them. With her temper and tantrums
and fiinging her belongings about
when she's angry and this mans in
science they'll be at each others
throats in a weekl" And Marshall,
pulling of his gloves and handing
them to Reginald with his hat and
coat and stick, said in his mind: eff
there's any person more supercilious
than an English butler I'd like to
know who 1t Isl"
Marshall watched Libby gracefully
climbing the stairs and listened to
the clatter of her spiked heels on the
landings. Then he turned down the
four broad marble steps into the draw
ing room. For the first time in his
life Marshall wasn't conscious of the
exquisite furnishings of this room. He
saw only the hundreds of flowers that
had arrived that morning for Libby's
and Betsy's debut and which Reginald
had arranged around the room with
British artistry. He saw roses and
poinsettias, red as blood, in prodigious
baskets tied with saucy red satin bows.
He saw carnations, orchids, snap
dragons, bright and colorful as Spring
itself. in slim, silver vases. There were
bouquets of roses, too, every color,
every variety-American Beauty, tea,
Talisman, bride's-lying across the
mantel, piled on table tops, on tam
bourets. and one side Of the room had
been decorated to the high-vaulted
ceiling with chrysanthemums, ferns as
fluffy as tulle, poinsettias and palms. A
background before which Mrs. Stock
ton and Libby and Betsy were to have
received. They wouldn't now, OF
course, after what had appeared in the
morning papers.
Marshall ran his fingers through
his dark waving hair, groaned and
sank wearily into the blue sofa before
the fire. He didn't want to think Of
Betsy. He didn't want to think Of her
ever again except In some detached,
impersonal way. But in this room,
with the perfume Of all the flowers
beating against him. no matter which
way he looked, no matter how strenu-
ously he attempted to keep his
thoughts On Libby, his new position

She was in his blood, flowing along
his veins like liquid fire. She would
always be. He knew that now. She
had something, a sweetness, help
lessness. an appeal that he had never
found in any other girl. And he had
known girls. He had known all kinds
of girls-cheap ones, swank, high-hat
ones. He had met them. made love to
them, dropped them.
Each time that he had had a date
with Betsy he had sworn it would be
the last. Everything in him had re-
belled against her background, every
thing in him had disliked the humble
little house in Georgetown. Mrs. Sey-
mour in her aprons and ginghams, Mr.
Seymour always looking for work and
puttering around the house doing odd
jobs, Terry waiting tables at the uni
versity. Marriage to Betsy would have
been a middle-class affair. He knew
Washington. He wasn't prominent
enough himself, nor had he money
enough, to lift her out of that class
He would become shabby himself. A
two-room apartment in q building
where milk bottles and trash cans
cluttered the halls. where tenants hung
things in the windows to dry and
strung clotheslines on pulleys from
fire escapes to kitchen doors: Betsy
perspiring over stove, like her
mother, wearing aprons and ging-
hams; a cheap car-everything cheap
and shabby and middle class.
Still he had been unable to resist
Betsy. Her light, cool touch had set
him on fire: her lips, her golden hair,
her wide, trusting blue eyes and her
husky little voice had been fuel to that
fire. Despite himself and his wild
burning ambitions he had fallen In
love with her and had gone so far
as to become secretly engaged to her
But not without cursing all the fates
for making him mad about q girl who
had less than nothing to offer him,
who could further him not one step ia
his life.
Like q fool, he had thought at first
that he could achieve the impossible
That through Libby he could assure
Betsy of social prestige and have q
$40, 0,000-a-year job for himself. Un-
expectedly, ibby's friendship had
changed to love. She had thrown her
self at him. And because all his life
he had intended to marry for money
and position If he could-a girl who
was in the Social Register, whose
father was in Bradstreet's-and be-
cause Libby had fascinated him he
had married her. He had married her
loving Betsy as much as he was
capable of loving any one.
Now he had just what he had told
himself over and over he wanted-so-
cial contacts, influence, money, the
background that could mold him into
power, prominencs and wealth. nc

YOW IllhL Tic 0uIIullcI VI LuAihA6
nj camp period Is about over
VI District Reserve officers are
l. ' directing their attention to the
approaching inactive duty troop school
assemblies and the extension school
courses. OF particular interest in the
latter connection is a policy recently
enunciated by the War Department
governing the conduct Of Army ex-
tension courses during the 1935-36
school year, In which several changes
have been made pertaining to the
courses that will be pursued by Re-
serve officers this school year.
One change Of interest to local OFF,
GERS is that pertaining to material to
be used and credit to be allowed Re-
serve students who have partially
completed subcourses In prior enroll
ments. Under the revision, in case
considerable time has elapsed between
cancellation and resumption Of work,
student officers will be furnished the
revised material and will be required
to start with lesson No. /. For short
periods between cancellation Of en-
rollment and resumption Of study,
corps area commanders may, in their
discretion, allow credit for lessons
previously completed. The credit to
be given will be determined by the
instructor on the basis of a compari-
son between the old subcourse and the
revision. In the event considerable
time separates periods of extension
course study. officers will be required
to start with lesson I, repeating the
lessons previously completed. For
short periods between cancellation of
enrolment and resumption of study,
students will be permitted to take up
their work where they left of.
Papers to Be Retained.
Another change is the issue of ap-
proved solutions to students. In the
past approved solutions to examina-
n-els and review lessons and student
officers answer papers have been re-
turned to the students. In the future
these papers are to be withheld. The
decision to withhold these papers Is
to reduce the opportunity for misuse
Of approved solutions to the greatest
extent possible consistent with a real
ization Of the maximum Institutional
value Of the subcourses.
The mere Withholding of approved
solutions and answer papers to ex-
aminations and review lessons will not
Of itself prevent the improper use Of
