esting. Written In a bold, dashing,
masculine hand. with a very thick

He had been holding out Simon's
last letter, waiting for him to take
it, as he spoke; so that Deborah
had had a moment to take in the
meaning of the handwriting on
Grandmother's envelope. 1t was fa-

at her heart, and she felt herself

for her letter. She did not notice
Deborah's face. But Bryn did. He
stood up sharply. He saw Deborah's
whiteness. He put out his hand
and took the letter from Tubby's.
He glanced at it. He looked over
at Grandmother.
''He could be arrested for this"
he told Grandmother grimly. Inter
fering with government mails. Bri-
berry and corruption. The crooked
game of politics"
Tubby stared at him, his mouth
open.
Shut up," Bryn told him, al
though he had not spoken. Not a
word out of you, you iniquitous
scoundrel. Trying to defraud me
of my rightful property, indeed.
This is my letter. I've been look

not being able to sleep nights. It's
q detailed and careful account of
the construction of the arch of the

1959-B,

Here is the frock for juniors to
make for school days. A COM
bination of rhythm in it's hemline,
rhyme in it's color scheme and
racy in it's style. For late sum-
mer wear, try tub silk, linen, cot
ton or shantung with long or short
sleeves. For autumn and winter
-"tweedy" silk crepe or broad
cloth.
The waist, gathered slightly to
the shoulder yoke front and back,
has a center pleat and pockets for
trimming. Buttons-a matter of
choice. A small collar, tie, and
belt complete this most effective
frock. BY way of suggestion,
make the collar and cuffs in con-
trast, and detachable to be readi-
ly removed for laundering.

who are discussing the possibilities
of styles for this season, that 1880
and 1890 will again be drawn on for
inspiration. The Ziegfeld Follies is
said to have developed the theme of
the sos by dramatization.
The great voyage of the flying boat,
the China Clipper, and the current
film, "Mutiny on the Bounty" are no
doubt responsible for a revival of the
naval theme. This trend is shown in
collars, coats and millinery. Berets
of this season and the Breton sailors
with streamers are clearly traceable
to the headgear of the seamen.
Judging from the emphasis design
ers have placed on pleats, it will be
difficult to assemble spring ward
robe without few of them. Pleats
may appear in the bodice of the dress,
at the hem line, or at the neck. Often
the whole dress is accordion-pleated

in colors, designs, in the use of braid
trimmings, and in the favor that is
given the bolero.
