fully across the garden. Jim,
watching her, waiting for the conclu-

Jim consulted his watch. "Ten

Jim sent the fawn-colored road

to Cherry Hollow. He had felt, for
a moment, very close to Cecily.
Now he had lost her again. Be-
meath her comments and exclama-
tons, he felt her anxiety. When he
brought the car to skidding stop
in the theater drive, she was out
before he could make a motion to
assist her.
The headlights revealed small
group of people standing on the
steps. Jeremy detached himself
from the group, as Cecily walked
quickly toward the steps, and came
to meet her. Jim, following Cecily
at little distance, saw that Jere-
my's expression was unpleasant.
"Well!" he said. "Thank you for

Jerry, darlingl I'm so sorryl"
Cecily slipped her arm through his

BY DOROTHY DUCAS and
ELIZABETH GORDON,

w YE ARE the sort Of people who
M believe that when the winds
" howl and the snow falls it
is much better to be on the
inside looking out than on the outside
looking in. Much better that is, If
the inside is of the kind that dis
courages the outside from coming in
through leaky windows.
This discouragement can take a
number of forms-from insulation to
weather stripping, from generous heat
ing systems to storm windows-but we
know of nothing better, if you are
starting from scratch, than the kind
OF window that closes tightly of itself.
A window which fits so snugly that
only 1,25 cubic feet of air a minute
can pass through foot of sash is
supposed to be an air-tight window.
But We have just found out about
window that does even better than
that at rebuffng old man winter at

dow, which until recently was used
almost entirely in monumental build
ings, but which has now come down
in price through a new lightweight
design. This window, tested at New
York University, showed air infiltration
OF only IA cubic feet minute foot
OF sash with wind velocity of "a miles
an hour. Good? We call it practically
foolproof.
AS result of the university tests
manufacturers now have bronze win
dows for the home in all styles and
suitable for the palatial mansions and
the small cottage, They are more
rigid and lighter in weight than the
original heavy bronze windows, such
as you see in public building,
Naturally, this means they use less
metal, and that is why their cost is
less.
Bronze is beautiful metal, besides
being a useful one. Almost gold in
color, it ads to the appearance of a
room, lending itself to almost all
types of architecture. Being an alloy
OF copper, it is rustproof 1t gives a
long performance without costly re-
pairs or upkeep expense. The metal
never needs painting to keep a pleas
ant color.
Another advantage of the new metal
for windows is its easy manufacture
into smoothly working unit. No
longer is it necessary to perform aero
batlcs to open or close the windows.
Even a child can operate them with
ease.
The householder who has bronze
windows finds his house better place
to live in because the windows are air
tight, keeping out dust and dirt as well
as wind and cold. And, of course, this
appeals to his wife, lessening the
drudgery of housework.
In the summer a truly air-tight
window is as important as in winter,

on torrid days. All in all, now that
their price is within reason for a
small home, it would be a good idea
to look them over before you specify
