CHAPTER Al


THORA GAVE a little gasp when
she recognized Alec Babbas at the
door of her room. Alec was coatless
and without his scarf. His soft
white shirt was open at the throat
These details impressed themselves
on her mind at first glance. She
stood motionless.
Hello" Babbas remarked easily
I'm in trouble I happened to re-
member that you were my next-door
neighbor and thought. maybe. you'd

Thora thought rapidly. It might
be an accident. but he had chosen a
clever pretext for his visit. Her first
impulse was to order him from the
room. Perhaps that was unneces-
sarily rude. If he really wanted a
button sewed on his cuff, that was
nothing serious. He might have
thought that she was the one to
come to. under the circumstances.
AS If he had read her mind. Babbas
remarked:

briefly. Just a second. until I get
a needle and thread"
When she came out Of the bed
room with the desired articles, her
caller was lounging comfortably in
her chair beside the reading lamp.
In a flash. she noticed that he had
closed the door into the hall. With
lips tightly compressed. she stepped
over to it, opened it wide.
Strong for conventions, aren't
you?" Ali Babba drawled good
naturally.
Eyes. Which sleeve is it. please?"
"This one" He lifted his arm.
'You'd be more comfortable if you
sat down. / think"
Thora made no reply. but busted
herself with the button he gave her.
She would make short work of this
sewing task If only no one passed
her door in the meantime, or saw
Alec when he left. That would be
in about one-half minute.
"There you are" she remarked.

sleeve leisurely, but made no move
to leave his chair.

INEXPENSIVE HOUSES
HELD EASY TO BUILD
Real Estate Boards Official Says
Industry Ready If Demand
Voiced.

Replying to the query, Can private
industry build good modern housing
at low cost?" Herbert U. Nelson,
secretary of the National Association
Of Real Estate Boards, says:
1.-THE answer is yes, whatever the
public is willing to buy such houses.
I know Of one real estate f1rm in
a Southwestern city which is selling
a ell-built, small modern house, with
modern bath room, two bed rooms,
living room, kitchen, garage, set in
a 50x100-foot lot, and with all
municipal facilities, for $4,000.
Purchasers may obtain these houses
by paying $500 down and $18 month
under the F. H. A. plan. The monthly
payment includes interest, insurance
taxes and amortization of the loan.
The rooms of these little houses are
commodious. The design is simple.
They are stripped Of all gingerbread
ornamentation. Houses of this type
can be duplicated in most American
communities as soon as they are in
demand"
