 T don't think you'd make such a bad pair of apron-strings to be tied to. Young lady, you're the first girl I've met in Hollywood who looked like the kind of girl man might want to marry. How much of that ribbon for love let- ters have you sold to yourself?"

CHAPTER XIII

Linda knew, the first moment that she saw him, that Basil Thorne would play an important part in her life, however brief that part might be. He was an enormous man and, looking at him, Linda Bourne re- 1nembered Cora Jarrett's saying, CT don't even know whether he is ugly or handsome"
 When man like Thorne attract 9d 6 woman he was attracted to, he would be more than handsome, she thought. Everything about him was dramatic. His curly hair was crinkly rather than merely curly. His voice was deep, his step was stride, his eyes met and held the others gaze. His frown dark ened his whole face. His smile broke it up in waves as though all the parts of 1t were separate units, controlled by the mechanism of that smile.
 Linda came upon him after she had discarded her travelling frock for white knitted bathing suit the slacks and cartwheel sun hat that was the accepted beach cos- tunle Honeys house party was distributed over the playground of tennis courts and patio. Linda, hot and tired from the dusty motor trip, made her way to the beach. She dropped the slacks and re- placed the cartwheel with a bath ing cap. The water was too tempt ingl She ran into it eagerly, and broke into the smooth stroke Pete Gardiner had taught her. Exhil- arated and refreshed. she pulled herself up to the float and found herself not alone.
 Thorne, in tights, his crinkly hair gleaming wetly in the sun, reached down bronzed arm and drew her up. He didn't let her go for moment until she got her footing, and for one breathless min- tte they clung together in the most irnpersonal way. Then, laughing

THE YOUNGER SET

This week, as my dear readers
of the younger set will observe, |
am broadcasting these social news
items through another medium, the
Detroit Tribune, which reaches
every corner of Greater Detroit
and Michigan. Hope you like it.
(By ULYSSES w. BOYkIN)
The midsummer season seems to
have awakened from its lethargy
as several interesting events are
scheduled to give it a gay setting.
The Nacirema Club in particular,
will be the background for much
gaiety for parties, and other en-
pertaining will be featured through
out the entire week. ....
THE ALT. THOMAS PARTY.
Before outlining the week of ac-
tivity planned by Nacirema let US
say something about one of the
grandest and most fashionable par
ties that has ever been given by a
motor city host. -. The occasion
was the Weekend party given in
/ honor of Miss ELENA l.. VERIFY
of Augusta, Georgia, at the spa
cious Midwest Country Club
! at Grasse Lake, Michigan last
| weekend. .....
ALI. Thomas Jr. played the role
of the most hospitable host at the
party which he gave in honor OF
his fiancee. .. .Alf told us that they
will marry after he graduates from
Meharry College next year. $50.
Miss VERIFY, is a very brilliant and
lovely girl, and comes from a very
1 fine Augusta family. She is a
graduate of Fisk University and is
also interested in medicine. This
is the lovely Georgia girls first
visit to these parts and she is car
ried away with everything.
All who attended the party had
the grandest time that anyone
could ever hope to have( That's
saying a lots) Just think of it,
glorious party with background
of mourning pines and everything
so peaceful and quiet.
When we arrived at the Country
Club we found plenty of ac-
tivity motor boating and explor-
ing the grounds around the club
house etc, Then we were served
a very delicious luncheon and spent
the balance of the day getting adj
justed. AT ten o'clock the dance
in the club house started and last
ed until three-thirty a. m. The ball
room was decorated with balloons
and streamers of many gay colors
suspended from the ceiling which
gave quite carnival setting. 80.
Ossie Barnet's orchestra furnished
the music and everyone danced to
hearts content. John G. Dancey
and Miss Malinda Wells, Bill Coins,
and Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Jones,
came over from Green Pastures
Camp to attend the dance.)
A buffet dinner was served.
The ladies wore light summer
formal gowns and the gentlemen
were dressed in sport combinations
49,. After a very restful night we
enjoyed breakfast in the club
house dining hall. We had eggs
and bacon, iced tea, and coffee.
After breakfast the guests found
many interesting ways in which TO
enjoy themselves. Some went
boating, swimming, hikeing, and
playing several games, and taking
snapshots. $50.
The most elaborate feature of the
party was the Sunday afternoon
dinner for the one hundred and fiji
ty guests who came to honor the
beautiful bride-elect. -. They serv-
ed green peas. fried chicken, mash
ed potatoes, tomato salad, hot rolls
