Terry.
"Oh, but you'd have a much,

Mrs. de Bray Importantly.

you talk exactly like my
mother" Vernon couldn't resist
saying, with a twinkle.
Mrs. de Bray seized on that
opening like a hawk.
I'D like to meet her. I'm so
fond Of little Nan. I'm a dear
friend of Mans father, too. So
that ought to make me a friend
Of your family"
Feeling Of Power
Vernon forgot all about Mrs. de
Bray at the SuydamS party in
dancing with Terry again. 1t was
heavenly.
Half the gang have discovered
our blessed little retreat" Terry
had groaned when they had ven
tured up a second time.
"All for the best, so that moth.
ing may get stale through repeti-
ton" Vernon had voucnsafed
pertly. Best not to let Terry find
her easy, though she would have
given anything for the feel Of his
arms about her again.
He gave her quick side glance.
els that so? I saw you flirting
with that Karinoff bird"
You mean the Prince? He's
very attractive, don't you Think"
A perverse imp was urging her.
"You mean that you are, and
you know it and trade on it," came
the gruff response.
Thanks, kind sir"
They went down the stairs, she
a little in advance of him. This
feeling of power over such a
wonderful man as Terry was
heady. Intoxicating!
They had supper together. But
Nan and her gang" Joined them.
One had just as much privacy
when Nan was around as if one
were in a goldfish bowl, thought
Vernon. disappointed, yet thrilled
with handsome Terry at one side
of her and assiduously attentive
Prince Karinoff on the other.
Mrs. De Bray sat at Terry's left
and Nan directly opposite them.
In between Mans sallies, Mrs. de
Bray spoke continuously in a low
tone to Terry.
Terry drove the two cousins
home in his car at a quarter
to two in the morning. That is
to say, he drove Vernon first
to the Splendide on Park Ave
nue., and then proceeded with
Nan to her home. Here was an
other disappointment for Vernon.
Why on earth couldn't Nan
have seen how the land lay?
Didn't she see that Terry and
she were crazy about each

out his cigarette case. Have

YOU'RE horrid," cried Vernon,
rising from the chair. But a frill
OF her gown had caught in a splin-
ter Of the wicker-work. She turned,
trying to free herself, trying to get
away and put an end to the con-
Versation.
Hold on. I'll do that" Terry's
shiny dark head bent over the sea-
green gown. There, you're free.
Shall we go?" They looked at each
other. In a moment-she never
knew how it happened-she was
in his arms. and he was kissing
her.
First Kisses
His kisses were like fire. They
ran through her veins like a
bright, hot trail. She felt blissfully
happy, yet dizzy.
If he let her go, she would fall
down, she knew. She was weak
from shock and joy. She prayed
this would go on. forever.
"Terry-oh, don't-if anyone
should come"
He closed her lips with his
kisses. She yielded, clinging to
him, his handsome face bent over
hers.
In the midst Of this wonderful
dream, she heard the sound of
footsteps mounting the staircase.
Terry, let go! People coming!
Quickly!" she breathed.
They drew apart just in the
nick Of time as Mrs. Mertina de

SENATE NEARING
DECISION ON HOLT
Engages in Further Debate Over
Whether Constitution
Bars Him.

Nearing a decision on whether to
seat 30-year-old Rush d. Holt, the
Senate today engaged in further le-
galistic debate over whether the Con-
stitution bars him from taking the
oath as Senator from West Virginia.
1t argued the question all day yes
terday and hoped to reach decision
before adjournment today. Holt was
80 on Wednesday.
Senator Austin, Republican, of YER
mont, asserted that Holtis election did
not give him "the right to postpone
the beginning of his term"
The Vermonter said the start Of q
Senator's term was set by the Con-
stitution and could not be altered by
the vote of the people of any State
for a man lacking the constitutional
age requirement of 80 years.
He said the fact that Holt's cer-
tifcate of election was filed with the
Senate on January 8, when the term
began, was evidence that West Vir-
ginia never accepted the idea that the
Senator had a right to postpone the
beginning of his term"
Holt waited until attaining the age
of 80 before presenting himself for
Ahe oath.

Report Expected Saturday.
The Commerce Committee was called
into session again today to act on the
remaining two points in the long
controverted legislation. Indications
were that the measure would be re-
ported to the House Saturday for con-
sideration early next week.
The two items yet to be approved
are the procedure for taxing utilities
and the language to be used in setting
forth Congress policy in regulating
utilities. AS now written. the meas

This tax is being strongly opposed
