lot OF NOISE AT
REA'S GATHERING
Carmody Kicked Up Lot of
Clapping by Threats on
Power Company
Daily Dispatch Bureau.
In ThA Sir Walter Hotel

Raleigh, July 30.-More noise than
anything else resulted from the Gin
dlgnation" mass meeting held in
Smithfield. Johnston county, Thurs
day night tc protest the action of the
electric membership cooperative d.
rectors in refusing to accept the loan
of $4,000 from the Rural Electri-
fication Administration in Washing
ton and to let the Carolina Power and
Light Company build the rural lines
instead, according to those who at
tended the meeting. 1t is agreed that
the REA cannot force the people of
the county to borrow money they do
not want.
While the 500 people or so present
yelled and cheered Administrator
John M Carmody as he made bitter
and sarcastic attacks on the State
REA and the Carolina Power and
Light Company, there is little they
can do about it, observers agree. The
REA loan has been definitely turned
down, the REA has been reimbursed
for all it has already spent in John
ston county, the directors of the CO.
operative have signed a binding con-
tract with the Carolina Power and
Light Company, under which it agrees
to build more lines than the coopera-
tive had intended to build and the
power company is already building
these lines. The power company had
built III miles of rural lines in the
county before the REA obtained its
injunction, has built some 20 miles
since the new contract was signed and
has agreed to build a total of some
1926 miles of lines.
Administrator Carmody maintained
in his speech at the mass meeting
that the Carolina Power and Light
Company would never have come into
Johnston county if the REA had not
frightened it into doing so, also that
it would never fulfill its present con-
tract He also threatened to organize
another cooperative to take in sec

night. Above Paris and New York
the same stars CLEANED brightly.
The muted strings of the orchestra
played strains that were being
heard at the same moment in New
York. The sparkling wines, so
expertly selected, gave her no lift.
The music fell on ears that hurt
from the sweetness of the melo-
dies. And through it all she was
thinking: Perhaps Tony has been
here. But shall never be here
with him.
It was not very thorough way
Of putting him out Of her
thoughts.
1t was dawn when Mark
brought her back to the Ritz and
left her gallantly at the lift.
She smiled her good nights,
murmured little things about it's
all being divine, smiled at the
operator and rode to the top floor.
Then she rode down again and
hailed "a cab to take her to her
pension.
She had told Mark that she was
very busy and begged him not to
try to see her too often. She
would ring him at his hotel, she
promised.
s,And so she did-to keep him
from telephoning her and so dis
covering that she did not stay at
the Ritz.
She was not entirely wrong
when she said she would be busy.
Her days began as soon as the
dressmaking shops were open. And
ended only when they were closed
It took but little time for her to
cover them all, and to learn the
discouraging truth that there was
no place for her. Hope dwindled
and with it some of her determi-
nation, but no one would have
known it.
It was nearly three weeks later
on night when she was to meet
Mark at the Westminster, tkaA

Perfect"
It was perfect. They had cock
tails sitting at tiny table on the
promenade of the Cafe de la Paix,
watching the early night fall.
Then they dined at the Cafe de
Paris, eating exotic foods that
Mary had never tasted before.
At IL they went on to the last
act Of a revue that shocked Mary
beyond words, but if she had had
them, she wouldn't have used
them. A. woman of the world
wouldn't have protested and Mary
Barrett was determined that she
was going to be a woman of the
world.
She looked. it, she thought,
catching sight Of herself and her
escort in one Of the mirrored
walls, and she was well pleased.
She was pleased with Mark.
Mark was gay, charming, fatter-
ing. But try as she would to re-
spond, there was something lack
ing within herself. She could rise
to his banter, fit herself into his
dancing embrace, murmur ap-
plause at all he had to show her,
but it was a different person with
in her than the girl she had been
so short month before.
Mary didn't want to talk about
herself for she felt that was tread
ing on dangerous. ground, but
Marks curiosity was unquench-
able. She told him more than she
meant to. but nothing Of Tony
Castle. She couldn't bring herself
to mention his name.
Efforts to put away the memory
of his dark laughing face, the
quick play Of emotions on it
brought quick tears to her eyes.
Weakening her first morning in
Paris, she had seen the bright
sunlight streaming through thick
lace curtains, playing graciously

Of anticipation. But instantly,
the memory Of him and why she
was there had swept away her
momentary pleasure and she had
turned her face to the pillow
wishing for sleep, for forgetful-
ness.
A hundred times that day she
had had to remind herself that she
was actually in Paris, the city of
her dreams. And when she did, it
was only to remember that it was
the width of a world away from
New York. That for her, there
was never to be another day to
equal the springtime of her life.

CHAPTER 9

THE NAME of Miss Mary Bar
rett, lately of New York, did not
appear on the register at the Ritz
in Paris. Nor was there any other
name that stood for hers. But she
knew where it was, and according
ly appeared there at quarter to
8 on the Saturday night, two days
after she arrived in Paris. Hoping
that a gentleman would not be so
ungentlemanly as to arrive a
quarter of an hour previous to the
time of his engagement.
For while she hadn't said she
would be stopping at the Ritz
when she made her date. with
Mark Sutherland, she had implied
as much.
For a reason that she didn't
trouble to define, she hadn't told
him that she was going to a mod
est pension on the Rue Richie
nanse off the Boulevard de la
Madeleine. It was there that
Catherine Mayhem, who had gone
to art school with her, now lived
while sne studied at the Sorbonne.
Kate had welcomed her with
Open arms, found a most amazing
eoom for her and still more
amazingly at a low cost, and in
stalled her in what was to be her
most modest home in the most
beautiful city in the world. Kate
had been able to give her little
encouragement about getting a
berth, but on this Saturday night,
with the beauty of Paris already
singing in her dream-filled head,
Mary Barrett had no mind to
worry.
Kate had introduced her to
another American girl who had
come to Paris to find work in one
of the great dressmaking houses
and after 10 months of futile
search, given up. This girl-one
Ellin Trent-had told Mary all
there was to tell. American and
Franco trade laws being what
they were the unemployment
situation the overcrowding.
But Mary listened and needed not.
Albeit much Of what she heard
took the bright bloom off her i'm
mediate hope.
But had you seen her that sum-
mer night, stepping gracefully
from her fiaere before the entrance
to the Ritz in the Place VendOme,
you would have seen nothing in
her lovely face. to tell you she
wasn't lighthearted; or anything
in her cinnamon lace gown and ar
resting coat of coral silk to tell
you that she had made every stitch
herself.
This was a night that she had
set apart. She had plenty Of
money to live in her frugal pen
sion though there might be lean
days; she had an ache in her heart
and philosophy that told her she
must do gay things to forget it.
This was the night that she meant
to do it. She believed in her star.
And she believed that it was her
star that gave her young, hand
some millionaire to help her for
get.
She saw Mark in his top hat |
and walked-not too quickly-to-
ward the desk as though she had
stopped there for a message. She
reminded herself, with touch of |
quick panic, that she. had to play |
the role of successful designer |
with Mark Sutherland.
