 Ronald slowed the car and stopped around the corner, sliding into an empty parking space. Then he had recognized Bob and would come over and sheer at him and go back and say to Mary: That's your boy friend over there selling papers,"
 Bob shifted his bnndle of papers higher and as Ronald jumped uu the curb confronted him stiffly and defiantly.
 "Hello!" Ronald stopped short, He seemed genuinely surprised. He must not have known. after all. Gosh" he said. Some getups Bob. I didn't know you till I was right on top of you"
 "Really?' Bob said, staring hard at him. Well, whether this fellow had known or not, now Mary would know, and he had lied for nothing. He suddenly hated Ronald, Mary all their kind, to whom things came 50 easily.

He felt that he and Mary must
 look harmonious, both so blond,
 so we'll dressed and quiet, SO ab- sorbed tn each other as they
 walked across the campus. To look
 at them no one would know that one was rich and the other poor. Even she herself. did not know it, and 1t was becoming less and less possible to tell her; he needed to feel equality between them. He bent over her, all charm. T will just see to 1t that you go to that dance with me-" he reiter- ated.
 He thought he detected an unus- ual sympathy in her warm voice as she linked her arm in his, laughing and saying, "I might, Bob"
 She could not know the struggle 1t would cost him; he would not want her to know. Now, when they were alone, he felt that, after all, they were of the same race and that with her his true self was re- leased. He clamped her arm close to the hairy gray stuff of his jacket.
 But the mood was shattered. A car slid up beside them just then and Mary said, Hello" with sud- den pleasure. She led Bob to the car.
 When they were in Bob spread his arm casually behind Mary's shoulders and disguised his sulki- ness with his cordial, boyish grin. Thanks, Ronnie, old boy"
 Where can l take you. Bob? I've got to go up north to place on Western for my dad and I can drop you in the loop if you like"
 North. Western avenue. Dam gerously close.
 Thanks just the same," Bob said confusedly, Out maybe you'd better just drop me at the l.. I've got to go way up almost to Evans ton" No reason for lying like that, he knew, but he had done 1t before he thought: he was so afraid of their knowing.
 As he ran up the long flight of steps to the elevated he was con- scious again that he had disap- peared into a world they did not know. Loop in twenty minutes, north side within the hour. He went up to his family's apartment and in ten minutes came out again, this time by the back stairs
 Now. instead of the scrubbed and natty law student, he stood upon the pavement as Bob, the newsie, in brown. baggy and greasy cordu- roys, and oversized coat of oxford serge and an old flannel shirt that had already begun to rub dirt on his chin. When he ran a dirty sleeve across his cheek the disguise was complete.

Ronald felt the tension; not looking at Bob again, he said after a pause: Well. so long, fellow. Got to hurry"
 He drove off with Mary; both were looking straight ahead; in cases like that, Bob remembered. you said to your companion: "Don't look now" Thessnobs!
 He loitered deliberately on his way to the lecture hall the next morning, knowing that Mary had g class in the same building at that hour. It would not be like him to postpone It.; he would have 1t out before she had timeHto snub him.
 There she was, walking toward him at her usual unhurried pace.
 He quickened his steps and they met in the middle of the block.
 "All right" he said, the words rushing out. You didn't need to tell me, you didn't even need to snub me. Sure I'm poor; sure I'm a paper boy. Sure was nuts to think that people like you and Ronald Turner would be my friends. I'd have told you that myself; I didn't need any low-life tale bearer to let you know, either. Oh = people like you make me sick!"
 She listened quietly, puncturing his wrath with her silence. He stopped and waited.
 "I guess I made a mistake, she said at length. Her eyes fiicked over him; she seemed unwilling to look at him. "
 What do you mean?" he begged, suddenly seiZing her wrist.
 Her habitual courtesy dropped from her. Don't touch me" she said quickly and 'harshly. with something in her voice that was almost loathing. ~.
 What do you mean?" he# re- peated insistently. but dropping her hand.
 "In the first place, when we saw you yesterday Ronald didn't say anything about it. My friends aren't low-life tale bearers"
 "He didn't? Well. who told you. then?" e
 "You, for one. just now. But'l've known all along. That was one reason l liked you. thought there was a lot to you because you did that"
 You knew = and you didn't mind"
 She regarded him without speak ing. :.
 'T guess made a mistake, too" he said, beginning to smile awk- wardly. "I take 1t all back
 Don't you see that you can't take it back" she said clearly. You can't take yourself back, and what you said just now was you. You have been in disguise all the time and you almost fooled me.
 She stepped around him ana went on; he remained there look. ing after her and beginning to murmur: "I don't understand--"

HEALTH'S HEROES

DhEGATES to the twenty-hfth clinical congress
~ Of the American College Of Surgeons in San
Francisco hear that public health in North America
is almost twice good today as it was 10 years ago
one reason is that this country is blessed with
such devoted public servants as DR.. William Hallock
Park, head Of New York Citys world famous De-
partment OF Health laboratories, who this week
paused long enough in his war against disease to re-
ceivc the Roosevelt Medal and the afectionate &C
claim of fellow scientists.
Dr. Park is Y, two years over the retirement age.
He works on ceaseessy against mans unseen foes,
the germs of diphthera, tuberculosis cholera scar
let fever influenza measles and the rest. He's been
at it for 40 years. Once, when a human test was
required for new vaccine for infantile paralysis,
DR.. Park and five others rolled up their sleeves and
used their own bodies for experiment,
He has 10 children OF his own. but be has been
a medical forster-parent for all of Americas chill
dren for decades. No one can estimate how many
lives he has saved This week he was described as
"a living link between science and the common life"
Dr. Park is no isolated figure, He is one of hun
dreds of similar souls daily risking life and health in
the fight against disease Their reward is neither
the riches OF commerce nor the glory of war,
Sometimes there is recognition like DR.. Parks,
tame like that OF Pasteur. Behring Roux Madame
Curie and Metchniko1, More often there is only
oblivion Yet they have their reward in the knoWl-
edge that they are saving lives, not taking them

A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT
- BY Mrs. Walter Ferguson

CONCENTRATING first fell into dsrepute because
1t was so often confused with housework That
Is TO say, most women who wanted to train their
daughters to be good wives concentrated on leach
ing them to bake. sweep, scrub and sew to chase
ort and track down germs, Over and over the old
fashioned girl was told that her first duty to her
husband was to cram him with rich foods and keen
his house immaculate. For all she knew here ended
her matrimonial responsibility
That era turned out some of the best housekeep-
ers and worst wives this country has ever known.
BY the time we had watched these highly trained
women lose their husbands to the first pert incompe-
tent who came along and seen their hearts break
ing from neglect and their children running away
to avoid contact with their kitchen-sink minds we
decided that perhaps just plain hard work wasn't
enough to make happy marriage after all
SO we rushed off to the opposite extreme There
began the great rebellion against tradition We
heard snorts of disdain every time the housewifey
virtues were mentioned The home-body lost her
prestige. and girls in for lazness and sex ap-
peal Domestic arts were almost wholly abandoned
while the hallmark of the perfect wife was the
beauty shops official seal If woman was good
locker gracious hostess, and walked like Ha-
waan dancer she felt herself prepared for all matri-
mOnlal emergencies.
But after while the general male exodus from
the home started once again. Now the men walk out
On their beauty queens just as they did on their
perfect housekeepers.
That's why the middle OF the road is beginning to
look good to us.
The girls, disllusioned about rouge and lipsticks
as they used to be about domestic grubbng, are
leaning toward the more conservative virtues Be-
cause they know must have bread and yet can
not live by bread alone they are taking pride in
their ability to keep house and at the same time cul-
tlvae their mental and spiritual gifts. According
to all the signs. tomorrows girl should make hum
dinger of wife.
