When they left, he went down to the apart
ment directly under his own. Visibly he was
armed with his hatChet, invisibly with stern
resolutions.
Mr.. Edward McGivens knew danger when
he saw it. He knew that spring weather and
loneliness bring susceptibility to the human
heart, particularly so when said human heart
is thrown into proximity with such beauty
as had stood outside his door some half
hour earlier He had met danger before -
on more than one occasion had fled ignomin-
iously from it. He didn't intend to be forced
into flight this time. Roomy apartments with
wide, open freplaces are not to be found on
every street in New York. Even without
Tommy, the place was home - and he had
lease. He was going to be extremely careful.
She opened the door. and through it. to-
gether with a view of comfortable chairs,
nice little tables temptingly supplied with
books and cigarettes and ash-trays, came the
delicious odors of steak being broiled, po-
tatoes being baked and some green vegetable
or vegetables on the point of being taken up
and served.
This is so nice of you" she murmured.
Then she added a little breathlessly Il used
to know somebody that knew Mr. Findlay
very well, so we've almost been introduced,
and it's so stupid eating alone and I've got
such nice dinner. Wwould you start a
fire for us and then just stay and help me
eat it - of course mean the dinner"
He hesitated.

got himself married. 1t was almost more than
Mr. McGivens could bear.
Not, he told himself reasonably, that mar
rage wasn't a grand old institution. The
average fellow didn't amount to damn until
he had some woman to keep him on the job,
make him change his collar and get shave,
nag him into working for raise. But Tommy
hadn't been an average fellow any more than
was he, Ed McGivens. They were the rare
exceptions who could live independent of the
female half of humanity. They could even
cook ...
Memories of steaks they had broiled, po-
tatoes they had French-fried salads they had
concocted, stirred vague longings within him.
He hadn't eaten since breakfast, yet at the
prospect of eating with only the ghost of old
Tommy for pis-d-uis he experienced faint
feeling of nausea. He'd probably just dash
down to the cafeteria for a sandwich and
cup of coffee But first of course, he must
admit the movers -.
Thereupon, as perfectly timed as something
in a play, the doorbell gave an emphatic
jangle Mr. McGivens shot across the room to
the door Now that everything was over, hed

deceased out of his sight.

you promised to be here at two - and stood
staring, his mouth half open, at small girl
in a crisp, green cotton house dress.
Even in this moment of confusion he noted
that her eyes were large and dark, her black
locks bobbed short and very curly, her cheeks

There, in that heap of assorted luggage, lay,
so to speak, the end of free soul, the down.
fall of fine gentleman, the last of that rare
jewel - the perfect apartment mate.
Squatting on his heels he bitterly linked
''Mr. and Mrs. Thomas w. Findlay' on the
top of box, added an address in the Bronx,
and stood up. His last service for poor old
Tommy had been done. There was nothing
more he could do except let in the movers.
The apartment, stripped of Tommy's share
of the furnishings, looked bare. His heart
felt as bare as the apartment. Had he been
woman he would have burst into tears.
He lighted cigarette, speculatively kicked

Tommy had been wont to foregather at Joes
for liquid refreshment.
Convivial hours at Joe's were a thing of
the past now. Tommy - good old Tommy,
otherwise eminently sane Tommy - had fin

McGvens, at the Office, numbed his feelings

A Thought for Today
Court Plan Buried

With the action of the United States Senate voting 70 to 20 to recommit the Supreme Court bill the nation as whole today can breathe sight of relief Since the date of its birth on February 5, opinion and counter opinion has rocked the country as 1t has not been disturbed since the hectic war days of 1917. It Is well that the things over.
 Undoubtedly administration leaders and the President must feel some slight resentment at the sudden turn of events within the past forty-eight hours, but down underneath they, too, must feel some relief, as the handwriting was openly apparent the last month or SO. The decks are at least cleared now for necessary legislation.
 That yesterdays action definitely buries the bill in It's original intent can not be doubted. The Supreme Court IS admittedly by even administration leaders out of the way for good. What may eminate from commitment will in all probability be limited to merely simple procedure changes in the lower courts. This may or may not be a sop to court proponents, leaving them some semblance of the original idea to mop up on the courts.
 All in all, 1t was a big victory for the conservative and thinking element of the people of the country, who more and more had come to show open resentment against the proposed drastic changes. To those who openly opposed 1t from the start must go praise for their courage in the face of what at the beginning looked like terrific odds. Only by the greatest perseverance was the measure gradually beaten down. As we said above, everyone must fell a great relief, and If the matter is quickly forgotten, all's well that ends we'll

The Right to Paint Your Home

Union sympathizers, union unsympa- thizers, and all sorts of folks who just aren't interested particularly in unions, will do well to cast glance at Cleveland For some time the spraying Of varnish over newly-painted houses has been almost daily occurrence. Investigation showed that most of these incidents were traceable to rivalry between two sets of building trades unions.
 Distraught inquiries to the daily papers from anxious people who were contenn- plating little amateur painting of their own houses brought out this fact: That for months the Painters District Council actually had been issuing permits to citi- zens allowing them to paint their own homes without interference, provided they could first show that they couldn't afford to hire painters.
 Painters union officials replied that "greed on the part of well-off property owners was causing them to try to avoid paying union wages" by doing the job themselves. It was the painters unions fob to see that such work went to union painters, and this 1t was trying to do by its permit system.
 That seems reasonable enough on It's face. But 1t Is 6 mighty dangerous prin- ciple, if carried to It's logical conclusion. Suppose you want to adjust the carbure- tor on the old bus some morning, and find that you can't do 1t without first applying for permission of the garage niechanics' union and convincing them that you can't afford to patronize a garage.
 Suppose you want to fix up those tricky front steps, and find yourself in similar trouble with the carpenters union. Sup pose the window-washers union decided that home windows come under their Jurisdiction as well as downtown office building windows, and that you'd better not wash your own-or else!
 Absurd? And yet in any of those cases you would be robbing union men of work they are qualified and ready to do. Per- faps 1t is not too much to say that any, one who can afford 1t ought to throw such work to men to whom 1t means living. It is certainly proper for a union tC try to get as much of that kind of work for it's members as 1t legitimately can.
 But there is something else involved here. It is the right of a man to do what he likes with his own. Unions will best berve themselves and their members by remembering those rights. The right to paint your own house, to decide Tor your

Pulling Teeth

A speaker at the recent convention of the American Dental Association con- demned what he called an "orgy of tooth extractions" as a remedy for general ills or infections in other parts of the body. The other, in more professional language, termed 1t "the fad of radical eXodentia."
 It has not been proved, they argued, that in any particular cases focal infec- tions in teeth have caused infection in other parts of the system, even though extraction of the teeth have been fol- lowed by improvement elsewhere. It may work in the opposite direction, they say. A tooth infection may be, and often Is, second to chronic infection elsewhere, es- pecially in the case of arthritis" Or in- lection may spread from the gums rather than the teeth.
 This is nothing for laymen to preach about, but the suggestions are interesting to people who have had their teeth yanked out. Some family physicians have been rather Missourian about the alleged wholesale tooth-pulling, pointing out that 1t is easier to pull tooth than to put 1t back, and that the extracted teeth are ofen missed. One such physi- clan always insists that tooth shouldn't be pulled unless the patients dentist and doctor agree about 1t.

Why They Confessed

The truth is beginning to c,,me out regarding those confessions by accused Russian conspirators in the strange trials of last year and last winter Americans were puzzled by the apparent frankness and eagerness with which distinguished public men and army officers blasted their own regulations in court and pleaded guilty to the treason charges. Now the government prosecutor in those cases, Vyshinsky himself, sheds light on the mystery.
 Tn the recent court-martial of eight army generals, he says, the government discovered facts indicating that the con- fessors of the previous trials did not tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Actually, they told less than half the truth. Actually, they lied and double. dealt again, trying to conceal their peo- pie from investigation and thus preserve them"
 Here we have the only plausible explan- ation which occurred to Americans at the time. The accused men lied volubly, with seeming sincerity, destroying their own regulations and Inviting execution, in order to save their families from torture and death. Of all the travesties on justice latterly in strong" foreign governments of any breed, this is about the worst.
