What did she look like ?" his

pressed his hand.
Il didn't have time to see ex-

lot of blond hair. Her features
were concealed by a heavy veil.

A gentleman Is introduced TO
a lady. But" writes the spokes-
man for a school class which at
the moment Is studying introduce
tons, why is an elderly gentle
man introduced to young girl ?
We think in cases OF a broad span
OF years. either age or eminence
should not be substituted for sex
in determining priority in intro
auctions. We are not challenging
your authority, but asking for
more information on the subject"
In answer to this. the first
of all let me say that my book
does explain that very elderly
gentleman or a very distinguished
gentleman is made an exception.
On the other hand, a man has to
be old indeed to appreciate this
veneration. To have his age en-
phasized by young woman stand
ing up for him, or even offering
him a chair, would infuriate every
man who does not feel old and
therefore resents very much being
made conscious that to others he
is no longer young. OF course, a
clergyman or a man who holds
high office Is accustomed to hav-
ing this courtesy shown him and
he quite naturally accepts it as
respect for his cloth or his office.

HOWEVER, the beauty minded

maker go over her wardrobe. let
ting out a seam here, taking a
tuck there, Strengthening hens and

Or she may get rid of spring
fever by changing her diet. For
one entire week she may manage
to eat not single thing that she
has been in the habit of having
during the past few months.
To follow her example in this re-
spect, simply make a list of the
vegetables you have been having
week in and week out all winter.
Then search the market for vege-
tables not on that list. Failing to
find any or at least too few to
count, look in a recipe book for
new ways to cook and serve the
vegetables you have been eating.

from strange lands. In other words,
splurge a little on food. For one

For a moment Gail thought she
was going to faint. The room
with its dim light, its magazine
covered table and stiff uncom-
Portable chairs faded completely
blotting out the faces of John
Reid and the officers who were
questioning him. But his answer
seemed 10 have convinced them.
"okay, Mr.. Reid, I guess that's
ALL"
Through the fog she saw them
striding Importantly down the
corridor. She realized then that
John Reds expression was one
of humility.

he repeated. And not your
father. Because it must be the
same person."
She did not answer but her
eyes fixed upon his slowly filled
with tears.
do you know of any such
person ?" he demanded. WAS
there perhaps a woman like that
who might have been an enemy
of your fathers?"
She shook her head.
Drops Emerald
mo. 1t must have been by
accident that she dropped the
emerald in his pocket"
But in that case you wouldn't
think she'd have nerve cough to
try it again. After five years"
he reflected.
When he lifted his head even
Anna must have pitied the mis-
cry in his face.
How could I have believed
even with all that evidence that
Robert Trenton could have done
such a thing? ?" he groaned. Its
retribution that my own boy
should be shot But IL he
lives I'll make 1t up to him."
you do believe Chris then ?"
"Of course I believe him. Chris
topher has his faults but he has
never lied to me in his life
Even in her worry and confu-
sion this praise from his father
was like music in her ears. When
he added, Can you ever forgive
me-" Gail said. "Pn try, Mr..
Reid. But I think it is only right
that you should publicly clear my
fathers name"
Won't Clear Trenton
'I'll do my best" he promised.
But you saw how far I got with
the police department. They have
an idea I'm trying to protect my
son. And you see. Gail. at the
time they found the emerald and
the glove in your fathers pocket
they considered the mythical
blond woman an accomplice of
your fathers. So that even If
they find her 1t might not clear
him in their eyes"
Gail sighed but before she could
reply they were summoned by a
nurse VINO said, The patient is
back in his own room now if you
wish to see him."
How badly was he hurt ? Did
they find the bullet?" they asked
in unison.
The nurse who was young and
pretty smiled alphabetically as
she replied. 1T was only a flesh
wound and they removed the bull

and Mrs. Employer. They are very

Answer: If you have never had
any personal association with
them outside of the office, and
more particularly, If they have
never invited you to anything, then
1 should not invite them to this
party. Otherwise, see no reason
why you should not ask them.

been nursing grievance ever

might be wrong.

she helped you answer the ques-
