Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise. (Pocomoke City, Md.) 1921-1953, 1935-11-22
SYNOPSIS

Ten days after beautiful Lucinda
StanfOrd's meeting with wealthy Car
ter Chalaire, he cOnfesses his love
for her. However, socially prominent
Zita Van Worst has her cap set for
Carter with the approval of his moth
er. Lucinda is happy in the thought
that Carter wants to marry her but
her heart sinks when, in reply to her
question as to what his mother will
say, he replies: Mother needn't know
q thing about it..What's it got to do
with my family?" Then one night,
Carter does not appear. The next
evening, Lucinda learns from Bubbles,
her gold-digging sister, that Carter
Zita. The same night, Catrer calls
but says nothing of his engagement
although he speaks of the futility of
life and how, when one really begins
to learn what happiness means, some
thing hobs up to spoil it. Carter in
duces Lucinda to go to Lake MahOpac
for the weekend. She is worried
when Carter comes to her room but
he assures her that all is well.

pired that the remainder Of the party
had instituted nudist sun baths on
the deck, and this had reached the ears
of the Governor!
Under the heading of Society
Scandal in Bermuda Water" an item
that Infatuated Mr.. and Mrs. Jeremy
Chalaire back home, appeared on the
front page Of the New York news
papers. 1t was declared, whether
rightly or wrongly, that the Governor
of the island had forbidden the yacht
ing party to come ashore! And the
names of the Stanford sisters-Lu-
cinda being cited as the widest of the
group, when certainly Bubbles had
been meant!-were printed as among
Carriers guests on the "Sea Cloud" {.
An urgent cable recalled Carter to
New York. Thus ended the party.

Fired at the worst time of the year
for getting new jobs-and without
recommendation, of course!
But Carter would see her through.
Carter and she were sort of engaged
now, weren't they? Why, this humil-
iation might even be blessing in dis
guise! It would hurry things along.
So as to keep busy, she cleaned the
little flat from top to bottom, went
through her wardrobe, repairing what
was necessary, and pressed out all her
dresses, including the gorgeous even
ing one, for Carter would very likely
want to take her out dining and dane
ing tonight.
She telephoned him just before the
closing of the Market. A clerk in
formed her, CURLY, that Mr.. Chalaire
Jr., had left for the day. On further
inquiry, he added that he had driven
with his father to his home on Long
Island.
$50 he isn't planning to meet me at
the shop. He'll 'phone," Lucinda told
herself, a little disappointed.
Bubbles arrived at quarter of six.
1.-THE axe has fallen for the summer.
I'm laid off. Business too slack" said
Bubbles laconically.
She made wry face when Lucinda
told her that she, too, was in the same
boat. Lucinda could not bring herself
to tell Bubbles the real reason, nor
that the "lay-off" was permanent.
Bubbles whistled. "And I'd been
counting on you, darling to be the
little bread-winner!"
The wolf would certainly have been
at the door had not Carter Chalaire
temporarily solved the financial prob
lem by suggesting that the two sis
tiers and " the gang" GO off with him
for a couple of weeks or so on his
yacht, the "Sea Cloud". W.
Bring your old man along too.
He's stuck on me-" said Bubbles, air
lily.
"Not on your life. He doesn't know
I'm going to have women aboard.
He's been reading me the Riot Act
ever since we all turned up at the
United Club in pajamas! D'you know
the old fogies called a directors meet
ing next day, and struck my name
off the membership"
ooh was only spoofing. I've some
one much younger and peppier. His
names Peppino. He's an Argentine,
and a divine dancer. He's terribly
amusing. Do ask him on the yacht,
Carter!" said Bubbles.
They anchored off Bermuda. There
were long, lazy days ashore, driving
with Carter in a horsedrawn landau,
since no motors are permitted on the
island. Lucinda was gloriously happy.
Or they would sit under cypress
tree, with the bluest of blue seas lap
ping at their feet, the water so clear
that they could see the intricate for
nation of the lovely water plants, and
the filigree of the coral.
The air was aromatic with the scent
of pines and frs and expresses. Roses,
bougainvillea, sweet peas doomed.
! The sunsets were the color of hibis-
Gus and lavender.

So that was that, thought Lucinda,

Flowers Intended to Aid

BY EEl IN wORDEN

NEW YORK, April 16.-It looks
IN as II they'd have to pin paper
flowers on the plants in the Gardens
of the Nations today, at Rockefeller
Center.
This is the formal opening. We've
had nothing but rain, wind and fog
for a week. Coax as the gardeners
would, magnolia trees, dogwood,
hyacinths and Towering crab have
refused 20 unfold a bud, even though
the Bryn Mawr grads have picked
the international gardens as the
background for their fetel The pro-
ceeds Of today's show go to the
Bryn Mawr million dollar drive.
Z When I made a grand tour Of the
exotic gardens on the eleventh floor
unit Of Rockefeller Center last week,
artificial blooms had been wired on
the plants for the benefit Of photog-
rapherS.
Sunshine Needed
''Everything's coming along swell"
a gardener said. but the plants
need a sunny day or two"
Spring flowers bloomed yesterday
afternoon in the Myron Taylor man
sion at l6 E. 70th-st. The head of
the United States Steel Trust and
his wife had invited those intertesd
in the Metropolitan Opera to come
have a cup of tea and hear Herbert
Witherspoon, new director Of the
Metropolitan, discuss plans for next
season.
The liveried footman at the head
of the grand stairway announced
names in a deep bass voice" Mrs.
Cornelius Vanderbilt" he called, as
the wife of Gen. Vanderbilt, neatly
turned out in black velvet and silver
fox, stepped into the tapestry hung
reception hall.
Mrs. James B. Duke" the mother
Of Americas richest girl, was
frocked in gray, with a silver fox
cape for finishing touch.
Mrs. Kahn Attends
Mrs. Otto Kahn" The widow of
the former president of the Metro
politan Opera board came in SIM

good imitation Of it," she reminded
her dryly.
II know what you're referring to,
Irene. But I'm so terribly unhappy
at time, I have to do something"
"All right, but Why the tears on
this particular occasion?"
Ewes eyes filled afresh.
1.-The lumberman left for Seattle
yesterday and Mr.. Carney was out
Of town, so about noon I telephoned
Bill and asked him if he wouldn' t
like to come over tonight and keep
me from being lonesome. He said
he'd love to, but he had terrible
cold and was going to bed early"

But I still don't see how 1 can
help her." Irene insisted.
"Oh, she's as initiative as a
monkey. If she likes you, she'll soon
be copying everything about you"
Was that his reason then for
wanting her to come to dinner,
merely that she might appear as a
model for Peggy?
This had nothing to do with
my wanting to see you again, -
Steve said, with his uncanny abil-
ity to read her mind. IVY inter-
est is purely personal"
I've been very poor company
tonight" she apologized.

tradicted. IF there's anything I
dislike it is prattling woman"
1t was queer but everything she
did seemed to suit him while with
Bart everything she said or did
now was wrong. Could it be be-
cause two persons were only in

Gus for a limited period? Then

personalities?
You have been awfully nice to
me-" she said gratefully.
Il told you 1 liked you," he re-
minded her. And I'm one person
who knows his own mind. 1t runs
in our family. Even Peggy knows
what she wants and leaves no
stone unturned to get it."

nice play was made by one pair in
an attempt to defeat four hearts.
A DIAMOND was opened, and
4 n was won with the ace. The
king of spades was returned, West
played the nine, and East refused
to win.
A heart was played by declarer
and won by West with the ace. A
small spade was returned, which
East won with the ace, and the
return Of spade was ruffed by
West, holding the contract to four
odd.
Against a four-spade contract
West leads the jack of clubs, South
ruffing with the three of spades.
Declarer realizes that he must
establish the heart suit and he also
has to stop possible heart ruff. 1t
does not look as if West holds the
singleton heart, or he might have
opened it.
East mas done some Dldolng. IN
doubtedly he is short in hearts and
has the missing ace of trump.
With this reasoning South i'm
mediately leads the queen of hearts.
West wins with the ace. If at this
point he returns a heart, East will
ruff and hold the hand to four odd.
Another way to hold the hand
down to four is to lead another club.
The declarer ruffs and leads the
king of trump. East wins with the
ace and returns the king of clubs,
South ruffing with the jack Of
spades.
South leads the queen Of spades,
and follows with a small heart to
the jack in dummy. OF course,
East must ruff this trick with the
six OF spades or he will lose it. That
takes out the last outstanding trump
and the declarer has the remainder
of the tricks.
This is rather a tantalizing hand
and would suggest that you lay
1t out and try its many variations.

from his chair all evening, had

said he has nothing but respect for
those who criticize work-relief, believ-
ing it to be inadequate or the meth
ods improper, but he was bitter In his
attack on those he said maliciously
criticized the work for partisan rea-
sons. He said these were relatively
few and that their identities are now
becoming known so that their mali
cious shafts can no longer deceive in
telligent persons.
Hopkins was introduced to the con-
ference, which is meeting in the May
flower Hotel, by Mayor Edward J.
Kelly OF Chicago. who was presiding.
Kelly said the conference has the
greatest confidence in the President
and his advisers and declared I'VE
know we are on the upgrade"
Mayors Here to Help.
Asserting unemployment is the great
est problem facing the mayors of
American cities, he told Hopkins the
mayors were not here to demand any
thing. but were asking his help.
At the opening Of today's session
Secretary of Labor Perkins told the
mayors the cost of social security under
the law enacted at the last session of
Congress will be comparatively small
for some years to come.
Pointing out the act provides for
Federal aid to the States for old-age
assistance, mothers pensions, public
health services and various other meas
ures for the care Of dependents, Secre-
tary Perkins said
This Federal assistance will aggre-
gate slightly less than 100000. 900 in
the next fiscal year and will increase
thereafter. Money will be made avail
able when Congress reconvenes for
grants to the States, almost all Of
which will be made on the condition
they are matched by the States"
A general discussion among the
mayors followed the addresses by Hop
kins and Secretary Perkins. Although
both were applauded, there were some
dissenters.
Mayor w. F. Carr of Durham, N. c.,
said 1t seemed to him the problem Of
relief was being tackled hind part
foremost. MY idea" he said, "is to
get jobs going. Then relief will take
care of ITSELF"
Defends Administration.
After Carr and several other mayors
had concluded their criticisms of re-
lief projects, Mayor Fforello H. La
Guardia OF New York City came to
the defense OF the administration.
Every criticism made here today"
he said, should be against the States
and cities instead Of against the Fed
eral Government If every State had
met the situation as generously and
sympathetically as the Federal Gov
ernment We would have no relief
problem in our cities"
This afternoon the mayors will
make an inspection tour of the De-
partment of Justice and at 4:30 will
be received at the White House. The
annual dinner will be held tonight.

strong enough to live without outside
help.
The new Northern republic, organ
lied by the Toxic government, claims
to recognize nominally the sovereignty
of Nanking.
Under the circumstances, the West
ern powers, which are anxious to
avoid any more trouble, may decide
that their embassies shall continue
to be located in Peiping, since that
city still belongs nominally to the
Chinese Republic of Marking. The
theory is being advanced that the
withdrawal of the embassies from
Peiping would play into the japanese
hands and would be Immediately in
terpreted by Japan as de facto rec
ognition of the existence of a new
state, and the Western powers do
not intend to give Toxic this salts
faction.
The same thing applies to the pres
ence of the foreign troops in T1entsin.
These small forces are there on
the basis of a treaty signed with
the old Chinese government. That
treaty-known as the Boxer treaty
has not been repudiated by the
Chinese yet. Consequently, regard
less of what the Chinese generals, paid
by the japanese, may do, the west
ern powers will endeavor as long as
possible to continue to regard China
as a unit. Under the circumstances
1t is considered unwise to raise the
question of withdrawal of the diplo-
matte missions and of the troops from
Peiping and Tientsin.
OF course, it is pointed out, the
Japanese through their paid Chinese
officials, may make it impossible for
the foreigners to remain in the newly
acquired territory. The embassies
may have difficulties in communicat-
ing with their governments and with
their Nanking representatives, while
the presence of troops in Tientsin
may occasion disturbances which will
force their governments to withdraw
them to some other parts of China.
