faced her grandmother.
"What did you mean by rein

manded. 81 never heard such silly

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XVI

Everyone, apparently, was at
the College Club dance. The ball
room floor was crowded, almost
suffocatingly, though it boasted
one of the largest dancing areas
in town.
1t was highly successful donce.
There was good music. Scores of
pretty girls. Whispered compli-
ments. More than enough men,
An air of delightful festivity.
Scanning the crowd, Dana saw
Paula Long several times, but she
failed to find Scott among the
dancers. Apparently he hadn't
come after all. 1t made all the
difference; most of the bouyancy
left her mood.

Roger, dancing with her, smiled.
Sometimes suggestion to 60 out
side meant the girl was inviting
bit of flirting. Dana, through
the weeks he had known her, had
not seemed that kind of girl.
Rather the opposite. But then you
never could tell.
They went out on the porch.
And suddenly. there was Scott
leaning against a post, smoking.
Dana put hand on Rogers
arm. The hand trembled a little.
LETS go back" she whispered.

"You don't look BETTER" Roger
retorted. "You look all in. What
you need is something to pick you
up. Let's 60 downstairs and find
it."
They were quite near the figure
leaning carelessly against the
porch pillar. Dana, her heart
throbbing violently, ran up the
red flag of courage and reckless
ness. .
"Fine," she agreed, with what
she hoped was a nonchalant IN
lection.
The man against the post moved
suddenly, barring their way: :,

intensity that Roger was backing

after Roger had gone. Then Dana
said firmly: at isn't our dance

There was a note in his voice that

his arm through hers, closed lbs
hand over her hand.
Dana found herself walking
with him along the side driveway.
They located his car and Scott
took off his coat and placed 1t

her protest.

LOAN INSURANCE
POLICY CHANGED
bearing Says Direct Appli'
cations From Mortgagors
Will Now Be Rejected.

H. H. bearing. director for the Dis
trict of Columbia Federal Housing
administration, announced today that
the District OF Columbia insuring
Office will no longer accept direct ap-
plications from mortgagors for in
sured loans, nor will it issue tentative
commitments to mortgagors.
The procedure in force during the
last few months Of accepting appli-
cations for mortgage insurance and
issuing tentative commitments has
been admittedly temporary measure
to determine the extent of the mort
gage market in the District Of Co.
lumbia, and it Is now felt that this
temporary measure has been effec-
lively used to show the existence Of
such a qualified loan market. Apph-
cations of prospective mortgagors will,
therefore, no longer be passed upon
in the first instance by the District
of Columbia insuring Office. but will
be referred to the approved institu-
tions in the underwriting jurisdiction
of the District of Columbia insuring
office so that these institutions may
resume their proper function Of first
deciding whether they care to make
the loan involved.
The public, of course, is cordially in
vited to come in to the Office, now To-
Gated at 1920 Vermont avenue, for in
formation regarding how to proceed to
obtain Federal Housing Administra-
ton loans. and will be welcome to use
such facilities as are available.

Soil Conditioning
In Fall Good for
1896 Vegetables
Spinach and Fe,U Other
Types Car. he Put In
tn 4dDnnfuQe.

While most of the Towering ANIMALS
can be sown this fall. to good advan-
tage. not so much can be done in the
vegetable garden except put the soil
in shape. A good spading. turning
IN compost or manure, is the best
move that can be made for next
Springs vegetable planting. The per-
ennial vegetables. asparagus and rhu-
barb as well as multiplier onions can
be planted to excellent advantage this
Fall.
Spinach Is the early Spring vege-
table that may be planted in advance
of the season to advantage. Prepare
the bed and scatter the seed in the
rows as late as possible and dodge
frozen ground. The idea is to get the
seed sown so late that it will not
terminate until next Spring, but will
be ready to sprout as soon as the first
favorable weather swells the germ in
the seed.
Spinach must do all its growing In
cool weather. The earlier it can be
started the better and longer the crop.
So Fall sowing is a real advantage.
Mulch the bed well after the seed is
sown and remove the mulch early next
Spring, as soon as the ground starts
to thaw. There is no use planting
the old-fashioned small-leaf spinach.

of leaf and quality, that it is foolish
waste of space and time to bother
with any but the newer sorts, mostly
Of Danish origin. It is more heat re-

Fall, getting 2-year-old plants from
dealers. The main requisite is deep
