CHAPTER I

TT was 5 o'clock in the morning \ and Helena Derrik, attired in a white swim suit, was poised for Q dive. Tn another moment, using her 1.-the body as Q knife, she would slit the water below her. But just now ane stood thinking how nice 1t was to be 20 and full of health.
 And |. in love.
 she described graceful arc and left scarcely Q ripple to mark the spot where that arc had terminated. Then, far out from the lake shore, the smart white rubber cap ap. peared on the surface. Helena's arms, looking longer than they were, began Q perfect rhythmic stroke that brought her to the float again. Easily sine hoisted herself from the water and began smoothing out her suit, squeezing little rivulets of lake water down her hawlesS legs.
 Wading ashore from the float, Helena stopped to retrieve Q bright coolie jacket from the sand. Swing ing 1t around her shoulders, she started off at Q run toward the big lodge which was set back, from the lake in the cool shadows of Che tow. eTing trees.
 "Welll" she heard c voice re. mark, T thought I was the early hird-but I perceive I'm just Q lazy pikerl"
 She looked up to see Peter Hen. derson watching her from the yer. anda of the lodge. He stood, tall and handsome, with Q robe of tow cling wrapped around his athletic frame. Even in the weak sun of dawn, Peters thick blond hair shone attractively. 1nvoluntarily, Helena slowed her pace, conscious Of q queer feeling around her heart. "Its 50 absurd that he can do this to me-" she told herself. i've known him hardly a hours. ."
 Absurd, perhaps, but 1t was true She was head over heels in love with Peter Henderson. She had been ate tracted to him from the first mo- ment of their meeting, and during the ensuing hours, in which they had been much together. this at. traction had come to be something naote. Of course it- vas foolish. He. lena had assured herself that It Was, She had met Peter Henderson on Q Friday morning. Now this was Saturday Inorning-and she was in love with himI
 Nevertheless, Helena Derrik knew such things did happen. So why not to her? But I'd better be care. ful," she had warned herself dur" ing the sleepless night. "ThiS Is the . first time I've been away from the store-really away from it-and N may be that I'm little giddy"
 It had, indeed, been sleepless night In lieu of sleep, Helena had lain, reviewing the chain of events

 Helen had doubted that, but it turned out to. be perfectly true. The very fact that she was Q friend of gandys gave teg instant aCceptance. But she didn't try to convey, the impression that she was more than she was, By the time the train reached the lodge everyone oti the party knew that she was lin the Sportswear. department" Rt Helvig'g, and none seemed to think the less of her because of t. Tn fact, most of them were open in their AdinirA- ton.
 "fEelvlg,s is where should Dc right flow," one Of the girls coE- fessed. Fathers supposed to be c big shot in these parts-but we oil realize tllat if he paid his obiigas ticnS we wouldn't know where our next meal is coming from. I'm the little lady who gets her picture in the newgpapers' society columns and appears everywhere # nothing was wrong. Father calls mo his front But I'd feel better # were dragging down Q few dollars 2 week in Helvig's, aS you are"
 They all took 1t for granted that Helena was iti Heivig'S because she wanted to be there, and not because of the force of circumstance; and, true to gandra'S prediction, Helena grew to feel she'd known the Leigh girls friends oil her life.
 "This extra man I spoke about will meet Us ct the lodge," 9andra told Helena. He lives in c little town on the other side of the state. think you'll ike him. His name b Peter Henderson and he looks more like one of those collar ads vertiBements than any man ever saw fin my iife,"
 Helena laughed. T suppose there must Dc men like that--but I'll have to confess I've never seen 0neI" Well, she had seen one now. Peter Henderson was unbelievingly goods locking, and behind his blue eyes WaS both power and intelligence. Helena had been rather eFnbar. rasSed at their first meeting, realiS- ing that she was "the extra giri for this young friend of eandra Lcigh's. But within c few moments Henderson had diSpclled this ut. comfortable feeling.
 You always had excellent tastc," he laughed toward eandra Leigh, "but I never realized t ex. tended to blind dates WheFe've you been keeping this delightful Miss Derrik?"

 "You realize, of course," Miss Landes said, what the sportswear department means. Its customers are chiefly young girls with money to spend-young girls who can in- fiuence their families to maintain an account at Helvig's or not maintain aYl account ct Helvig'S."

Hc was proud of his SportSwcar department, and cautioned his buyers that 1t was to have not only the reasonably priced lines, but the exclusive outdoor cos. tunes ag well.
 Helena liked the work from the very first day. She had always enc joyed swimming and tennis, but when her father died and she faced the world with 6 high school diplo. ma and the problem of supporting her mother she found little time to engage in either sport But now, et least, she could engage vicariously in them, and she took over Miss Little'S place with . genuine eEi- thusiasFn that pleased customers and meant dollars and cents to Hel. wigs.
 Quickly she learned the likes and dislikeS of the steadieSt Of her cli- entele-moStly young women who had little to do but sandwich sports between rounds of bridge and daEic- ing. Some Of them she grew to like, and among these was sandra Leigh. Often Helena had seen thl Leigh girls picture in the rotograv- ire se9Sion of the newspapers, and she realized vaguely that she was the daughter of 6 man who had much to do with the upbuilding of the town. But until she had sold sandra Leigh bathing suits and tetl- his shorts she hadn't know that she was Q sensible and altogether like able person whose friends called her Sandy"
 Helena would not forget the day that sandra Leigh had burst into the shop in Q rush, asking to sec bathing caps and sandals.
 "We're getting away on the foiz o'clock to Crest Mountain Lodge, sandra explained, land I've left all my swimming things at the beach"
 "Oh," Helena had exclaimed pleasantly T hear Crest Mountain Lodge is very pleasant" }
 Haven't you ever been there2' Sandra Leigh seemed surprised.
 Helena shook her head. "No :"
 The Leigh girl studied her 6 mo- ment, then added suddenly, "Why don't you come along2 There's an extra man who's said to be awfully nice--and I'm the one who's been delegated to ind the. girl. Why don't you help me outp I really think you'd have 3 good time"
 Helena hesitated. ''It's good oi you, Aaiss Leigh. But tomoFrow'l our busiest day in the week, and"

death" and will not stand for addi-
tional taxation. 1t is true that higher
taxation is never popular and is gen.
orally repudiated at the next election.
If expenditures rise and the national
budget remains far out of balance il
is certain that more taxes will be re-
scented. But if a desperate" effort
is made to trim expenses and balance
the budget the people will undoubted-
ly accept higher taxes in a better
frame of mind than if expenditures
continue to mount. 1t would be pretty
much question of what would be done
with the money. Thinking people
want most of all to avoid initiation.
Yet they do not want to pay higher
taxes and will not do so without con-
siderable protest unless the money is
to be used to put the financial house in
order.

STILL POOLING THE PUBLIC
WITH BOGUS ALLOTMENTS
Funds "AlIOcated" To Build Ma
tiOnal Guard ArmOrieS Cannot
Legally Be Spent

During recent months WPA has al
located millions of dollars for the con-
struction of national guard armories.
The amounts allocated ranged from
$4,000 to $4,000, several hundreds
of armories having been authorized
in the aggregate.
There is now pending before Con-
gress bill to authorize WPA to use
relief funds for the construction of
armories costing more than $4,000.
The bill has not become law. The
reason for this is:
A law was enacted last Congress
which specifically forbids the use of
relief money for any military purpose
if the cost exceeds 100000. 1t is that
law which makes necessary new leg
islation which would remove the linn
itation. AS the law now stands 10 out
of 20 ALLEGATIONS for building national
guard armories are nothing more than
idle gestures, for not more than $780,
900 can be utilized for any one ar
mory until the law is changed, as
sumed WPA intends to observe the
law.
Some queer things appear in the an
nounced ALLEGATION of WPA funds for
building national guard armories.
While some states were refused money
for this purpose, Oklahoma was given
a grant of $2,4OO,O00 to build SO ar
mories, every one of them costing
more than the legal amount-some of
them costing ten times what the law
permits. North Carolina was granted
sufficient money to build 30 armories,
each ALLEGATION in excess of $1,000.
Only in Alabama do ALLEGATIONS aver
age less than $4,000.
WPA has been decidedly partial to
definitely Democratic states in the al
location of money for national guard
purposes, and not at all liberal in deal
ing with states which normally are Re-
publican. For instance, the town Of
Louisburg, N. c., with a population of
2,182, was allocated $45,566 for a ma
tional guard armory, while Fremont,
Neb., with a population more han five
times that of Louisburg, was given
$4,000 for its armory. Wake Forest,
N. c., with population Of 1886, re-
ceived an ALLEGATION of $74,898, while
North Platte, Neb., population 12,O61,
was allowed one-third of that amount
for a similar purpose. The ALLEGATIONS
of North Carolina, Florida and South
Carolina doomed large compared to
the ALLEGATIONS made to much larger
cities in most Northern and Western
states.
West Virginia relatively Jared even
better than New York. This is one
state which Mr.. Farley counts Gin the
bag" for Roosevelt; Harry Hopkins
was most generous in allocating money
to build ten national guard armories
in that commonwealth. The smallest
ALLEGATIONS given West Virginia were
$127,488 each for towns of 1900 to
1000 population, and ranged from that
up to $529,524 for Charleston, the
state capital.
If the WPA is showing any respect
for the restraints imposed by law,
then ALLEGATIONS for national guard
armories where the amount exceeds
$4,000 are so much buncombe. Arm
cries costing more than that amount
cannot legally be built.

Salmon. An inexpensive Dish

Salmon, An inexpensive Dish
Although there are five species Of
canned salmon, the pink salmon will
be among the least expensive because
it is available in such large quantities.
More than half of the entire Ameri-
can pack is pink salmon. This is lit

and delicate flavor makes it suitable
for all purposes. This is wholesome
and nutritious fish. The liquid in the

during the cooking process. Do not
throw it away. The following recipes

NATIONAL AFFAIRS
By FRANK P. LITSCHERT

1t is at least interesting, if not reas-
surfing, to note the amount of advice
we are getting from financial authori-
ties in their release" to the public, as
to how private funds ought to be in
vested to avoid losses during a period
of imitation. This indicates that a
great many students of economic
affairs believe that we may face such
period in the not distant future.
Some of them tell us that we have
already entered an initiation era. They
compare the prices of commodities
with those of year ago, and remind
US that it is possible for a nation to
have initiation without the speeding up
of the printing presses-credit in
flation. 1t is this form of Expansion"
which they say that we are now ex-
periencing, and they add that this is
often followed by outright currency
imitation.

1t is generally conceded that in my
country the way to avoid national in
fiation is to practice national economy
and balance the federal budget. This
always calls for high taxes as well as
intrench ment. Some politicians,
speaking of the present budgetary
situation in our own country, declare
that the people are already "taxed to
