did Duvvy give you the slip again7"
she asked, without zest.
"She did notl dragged her by the
arm into the drawing room where
her father Waited-of course he was
waitingl He kept out Of sight all these
days. He told he she was due for the
best old style thrashtng q girl has
had since 1910. He said her education
had been neglected" Berkay's voice
broke with emotion: Il hope he takes
the skin off her before they reach
Canada and her mushy mother"
Linette demanded, Aren't you going
to marry her?"
Marry Duvvy Manuel That cheap
dynamitel I'm not crazy She left town
with my cousin Eldra's husband Chal.
Eldra wants him back for the two
childrens sake. and / agreed to get
hold Of Duvvy and make her see
sense-And I don't believe the little
cheat has seen him since they got off
the train two weeks back"
Berkay added aggrievedly, "Are you
angry, Ldnette2 Why2 I thought you
must like me pretty we'll to run
around with me all these evenings the
way you did. And you may have for

at a dance. I knew you ten seconds
after I entered that clubroOm. And
I knew you we're the one girl I'd meant
for years to look up, as soon as had

kisses?"
She said firmly. mo. Not at all"
He said thoughtfully. I've a bunch

This night is young. Are you coming
out again to dance with me. when we
don't have to have that plagued Duvvy

She said hastily, I'm coming And

There had come no flowers, no word
from Berkay. Probably Duvvy and Ber-
kay we're enjoying passionate recon-
Citation somewhere.
Augusta Semple three times climbed
the stairs, partly in curiosity, partly
in commiseration. At last Linette went
to bed.
In the morning, she 'phoned the car
I pet salesman to send over samples of
gray, taupe, sand, and wine velvet.
4 Toward mid-afternoon, Berkay
I 'phoned. Rather formally, he thanked
her for the evening aid. He said that
! Duvvy, with luggage, docility, and a
new finger wave, was in an hour,
meeting him at the Grand Central, en-
route for home and responsibility.
The carpet salesman, beaming tailed
the phone call armed with samples.
Linette stared dumbly at sand and
wine, while he chartered.
She would not see Berkay againl
oh, maybe 20 years hence, at some
reunion of Roble alumnae. when wives
were asked to bring their husbands
He would be middle-aged, perhaps
stout. He would wait patiently for
plump, vivacious, but nnatronly Duvvy
to get her wraps and say goodnight
to her old classmates. And he would
not remember her, Linette, at all.
She would be merely the local sec
rotary, with a thin neat body, a pleas
ant fixed smile, pince nee. and gray
ing hair.
The phone on Linette's desk buzzed.
Joan Carlton.
"Linette Shaw? Hello, Linette. Are
you still in touch with Berkay Cald-
well, whom Duvvy Maune used an
hour ago TO get herself and her lug

wore to a night club the suntan and

had made for wedding at which

sides a smear Of egg and ham grease
And she laughed at the expression on

That Is too bad" said Linette,
briefly.
"But I 'phoned to tell you to let
Berkay know that she's not taking

I heard her phone another man she'd |
meet him at 10 o'clock tonight at the |

Thank you, JOAN"

ring, like all the cathedral and school I

She told the carpet person to come |
back on the next day. He said, ag- /
grieved, "Oh, Miss Shaw, have heartl I

PECK WATER SUFFICIENT
FOR $500 ACRES OF Il

Water from Fort Peck lake could
irrigate about $4,000 acres Of land,
much OF which is in Valley county,
according to w. G. Sloan, reclamation
engineer.
Sloan. who is now making q pre-
liminary survey Of power and irriga-
ton from the lake water, declared pos
sibilities are beyond comprehension.
Even his survey, which ends July /,
will touch only the surface Of what
may be achieved by the people OF this
section, he said.
He pointed out feasibility Of irriga-
ton by gravity and pumping. In some
instances water could be lifted $50 feet
for profitable irrigation. An increased
supply for the Milk river district could
be made to enhance agricultural
wealth of Valley county, with large
tracts Of benchland being irrigated.

pass key.

he said, uncertainty. ~Or am pest"

Of good friends, and no hostages TO

Doubtless the advice was well meant.
Augusta had given It before. But Lin

That night. it was Berkay who first
saw Duvvy across the room.
NOW we won't lunge at her." he
murmured. wen trick her"
Dancing. they passed Duvvy who
wore a pale blue and scarlet gown and
was with what looked like a worried
husband. But 1t was not the same
husband. This one had eyeglasses.
Hello, Duvvy," greeted Berkay, cas-
ually.
Hello. Berk. Why aren't you in
Chicago?"
Still, Duvvys eyes seemed hard with
suspicion.
Don't rate vacation once in
two years?" he asked.
1T suppose So" agreed Duvvy, but
she was not friendly
She and her partner danced away.
Berkay said thoughtfully, II can't
pick her up by force in this place. I'll
get her outside when she leaves"
But Duvvys departure was like the
wind unseen.
Taking Linette home in taxi, Ber-
kay blamed himself.
"Still, it may be better. Her sus-
picions will be lulled by my lack Of
obvious espionage"
On the next evening, Berkay apol-
ogized again to Linette.
"I'm making use Of you with no more

County Police Win:
BANDIT SUSPECT
CAUGHT AFTER
FREEDOM DASH
$500 Telegraph Office
HoIdup Is Charged

Arrested a short time after a
holdup in Baltimore, bandit sus-
pect made daring dash for free
dom in the HyattSville jail today.
Captured after a short chase he
was subdued and returned to Bal
timore.
The suspect, Charles James
Hook, 80, was armed when he was
captured by two Prince Georges
county policemen and had $500 in
his pockets. the exact amount
stolen from telegraph office held
up in Baltimore early this morn
ing.
Police said that Hood admitted
he had held up the telegraph
office. Also held for questioning
was Lloyd Hubbard, so, Baltimore
cab driver.
DEMANDS SAFE OPENING
Herbert Broughton, manager of
the telegraph office, was alone in
the place when the lone bandit en-
tered, drew a revolver and nerv-
ously demanded that Broughton
open the safe.
Broughton said he did not have
the combination. The bandit
then opened the cash drawer,
took $400 in currency and fled.
Broughton sounded the burglar
alarm, but police could find no
trace of the bandit.
A short time later a man
walked up to Hubbard and asked
to be driven to Washington. An
other cab driver, overhearing the
conversation, called police, and al
lookout was broadcast for tteI
cab.
Prince Georges County Police
men Richard Pearson and Charles
Thompson were cruising on the
highway near the University of
Maryland when they picked up
the call, and a short time later
saw the cab.
They ran the vehicle to the curb
and questioned the occupants.
Hook said that he was a delegate
to a seamen's meeting in Norfolk
and was on his way to Washing
ton to catch bus.
Searched by police, the gun and
money we're found. Hook was
handcuffed and taken to the
HyattSVille jail.
DASH FOR FREEDOM
While being questioned he COM
:lained the handouts were too
tight and were cutting his wrists.
Officer Pearson unlocked the cuffs
to loosen them, and as he did
so Hook kicked him on the shins,
made dash for the door, plunged
through the screen and got out
side.
Pearson gave chase and caught
Hook after a chase of about $50
feet. Hubbard told police he had
never seen Hook until the man
walked up to the cab stand and
asked to be driven to Washington.
