ing at dad to laugh at that stamp
collection.
And tonight wasn't the first time,
either. Jack had tried to be nice TO
him, although he hadn't liked hlm
from the first. Mr.. Hancock was Just
one of those people fellow couldn't
like. for some reason or other.
Gee, he had tried, but mother
had looked so pretty tonight. She
seemed happy ately-happier than
she had been since dad died.
Jack sat up with start. A queer
sensation was coursing down his spine.
No. no-he was imagining things.
That Hancock guy couldn't have any
thing to do with mothers being
happy. But he had nearo OF
such things. Hadn't Jim Harris
mother married somebody or other
couple Of years after Mr.. Harris died?
GOSH
All the resentment of which Is
years Is capable welled up in Jacks
heart. The idea that any one could
replace the father he had ideallzed
was revolving Mother couldn't-she-
vhv, she had loved dad as much as
he had. No tears shone in his eyes
now: bleak anger blazed in their blue
depths as Jack rose to his feet, fists
clenched.
Well, he'd see that this guy didn't
marry mother. He'd see to that all
right. A few minutes later he knocked
on his sister Susan's door.
Susan was two years Jacks senior
and wasn't inclined to take her brother
very seriously.
well, what's on your mind? I
thought you were helping MON enter
tain Mr.. Hancock"
II hate that guy, Susan!'
Jack! Why?"
Susan, he wants to marry moth
erl" There it was out! A lump rose
in his throat and he stared hard out
the window. Susan swung around
in her chair, startled beyond speech.
Jack" The two youngsters were
silent for a moment, both young
hearts rebelling again the thought
that was uppermost in their minds.
Jack, that's absurd! Why, mother
wouldn't"
Listen, Sue-you admit yourself
that mother has changed. Why, she
almost looked as young as you to-
night-that's always sign. And
besides, he's been around here too
much. We've gotta do something.
Sue, that's what came in for
But what? We can't do any
thing"
Jacks face frightened.
Tomorrow night when he comes
I'll meet him at the door an I'll
just tell him. You can keep mother
upstairs till get chance to talk
to him. I'll talk, too, believe me-"

The first newspaper peoples ball in
the National Capital was that last
evening given by the Newspaper
Women's Club of Washington in the
Willard ball rooms. The causes were
worthy, proceeds to be shared by the
heating plant fund Of the Children's
Hospital and the fellowship fund Of

resentative of the many circles which
form the population of the Nations
Capital. Everything pertaining to the
ball carried out some phase of the
newspaper profession as far as fire
regulations and the N. r. A. allowed.
Professionals gave the program of
entertainment, outstanding stars Of
music, the dance and the stage, with
the fashion show having as models
active members of the club. Decora-
tions in the ball room were entirely
of comic sections from Sunday papers
and other decorations were of the
front pages of daily newspapers rep
resented in the active membership of
the club.
Adding to the effectiveness of the
unusual decorations and the carnival
atmosphere of the scene was the well
thought cut and properly focused
lighting, which was under the uirec-
ton of Mr.. Beverley H. Harris, whose
work with the Bal Boheme in Febru-
ary was so particularly commended.
Mrs. Roosevelt, an honorary mem
ber of the club, who was guest of
honor, arrived about 1890 o'clock
