about her - her wrap, her gown, even her
skin seemed to match and to complement
that whiteness.
When she moved on to her table, there was
sound in the room as though most of us had
only then begun to breathe again. No small
triumph that, assure you, where celebrities
are rather more common than goldfish.

Id never talked about it before, but some
how now I wanted to talk. Perhaps it was
because Anna had made me remember the
day Mona saw Dermott for the first time, how
he came striding toward us, hatless in the
September sunshine, his short-cropped yellow
hair cleaning like polished helmet, his blue
eyes narrowed as if at some secret he shared
with no one.
Idon't know just how he came to be walk
ing there. The Avenue de Montespan is not
very well-known by most Americans in Paris.
Mona came there often because its villas and
its gardens enchanted her. saw him as we
were coming to the corner of the rue de la
Pompe. glanced down at Mona, expecting
her to say in that slight, provocative drawl of
hers, Beautiful young man. He must pose
for sculptors," or something in kind.
What she said was quite different. know
now that from the first sight of him she was
lost. More, that Mona Jeska was lost. Seeing
him she was Ella Beans again, and Dermott
was such a man as no Ella Beans who ever
lived could have helped loving.
Those people coming in to dinner, Ga
briel," she said. II think that young man
would fit in. Perhaps - perhaps you'd better
follow him now."
That was the beginning.
Few people can have any idea of the
drudgery it takes to make Mona Jeska of an
Ella Beans. And so, few could comprehend
the greatness of her unhesitant gesture in
throwing overheard everything she had
worked for, like so much unwanted ballast.
Those close to her used all imaginable argu-
ments, but it was no use. She listened politely,
too politely, an unchanging little half smile on
her lips, but what they said - just so many
words.

as you would expect. Vineyards. Dovecotes. A
lovely old orchard. There were other houses
along the road, but not close enough for in
trusion. They gave only sense of human
contact, geese straying into the kitchen garden
sometimes and smoke rising from neighborly
chimney pots.
l went soon after the first of the year,
arriving about four in the afternoon. The
maid met me at the door. Mona, hearing my
voice, came running from the back of the
house. She caught my hands, laughed up at
me. Her cheeks were flushed, her hair lay in
damp cllrls on her forehead. There was a
smudge of -four on one of her enchanting,
upwnging brows.
Gabriel You're just in time. Come see
what I've done for you.''
Her masterpiece was a great, peasant size
loaf of bread, its crust glazed, gashed, seed
sprinked, Drowned to make your mouth
water. The old French woman who helped
with the cooking stood with her dried-apple
face creased to benignant smiling while Mona
took the loaf from the oven.
Hooked from the bread to Mona. Standing
there against the background of smoke

been happily married young matron in any
mid-western town.
She twisted off a crusted end, spread it
with yellow butter. Nov eat, F." she said. ''And
I'll finish dinner before Mel comes in from his
walk"
Not one question about Paris. Plainly, it
had ceased to exist for her.
She had gone to dress when Dermott re-
turned from his walk. 1t was dusk, and
could not throw off the plaguing feeling that
he had stayed so long because he knew that I
-typifying all the people they had known in
Paris - was there. The moment he greeted
me sensed that something was wrong. An
effusiveness of manner which did not belong
to him, certain awkwardness verging on
embarrassment. Luckily we were not left
alone together long.

Blthely we shut our eyes to vital statistics
which prove that most of our idols come from

And so -" Feathers shifted his enormous
bulk in his chair, his bright, black eyes half
closed between rolls of fat. "Billings's little

comes Mitya Marzhka, with past made up

Anna laughed. ats really simple. All of us

YOUNG GIRL HEADS.
 TROUPE
Former Resident of Hart-
 ford Stars in Variety Of. fering at Jacques

A Hartford, Conn, girl, Ann Corio, lived up to all the nice ad- vance things said about her when she featured the opening of this weeks Futuristic Burlesque at Jac- ques theater last night. The 23 year old girl Is the possessor of the form divine" as she was previous ly billed. She came, here from Boston where she had a successful run.
 Her engagement last night also served as a. family reunion. Her mother and two sisters Journeyed to Waterbury from Hartford to watch the star performer. She is a prominent figure in burlesque, having been the originator of the modern strip" but performing It with grace and without the usual suggestiveness.
 Miss Corio entered burlesque at the age of IT and four years ago. took Dorothy Knapp's place in Earl .Carrolps vanities. when Miss Knapp left the show. Miss Knapp that year won the Atlantic City beauty contest Articles about her have appeared in the magazine .'Time" and the stage publication. ."Variety." She has had two offers to go to Hollywood and is con .sidering them. .
 Misst Corio heads a good show this ' week. The comedians, are really funny and have deleted the smuttiness that marked other shows here. The stage settings and scenery are we'll down and the chorus performed as good as any musical comedy group. Moore and Roberts feature in vocal se- lections and Rot and, Dash are dancers of ability.

Vigorous opposition to the par ticipation of this country in the World Court was unanimously ex- pressed today by members of sew eral veterans' organizations of the city in answer to poll conducted by the Democrat.
 Owing to what one of the veter- ans called the .'suddenness with which the move was made iii Washington" none of the organ ization has taken official action on the question. Speaking unof- ficialIy, however, several represens tatives of veterans groups stated that they were emphatically op- posed to the World Court.

 Robert Hayes, secretary treas. urer of the Waterbury Veterans Council, said that he had persona ally urged the sending of telegrams protesting adherence to the court to Connecticut representatives In congress.
