"Where?" suspiciously.
"Out in the car-in one OF my
bags"
You don't suffer with hallucina-
tions?"
She laughed, then told him about
Jim Charters plane. He listened
intently, his excitement increasing.
When she had come to a breathless
finish, he said:
And you'll assign this plane to
North Aircraft if its any good?"
"Yes. But I don't want John
North to know it comes from me"
why not?"
Because he knows this man I'm
afraid of. They're even" And her
voice turned bitter. Even inter
ested in the same woman"
Laura Ward, you mean" Jim
said. Il know. Johns in love with
her, and she's poison"
so I want John North to have
the plane, without knowing it's
mine. That's why I'm confiding in
you, Jim. Can't you tell him you
designed it?"
He'd never believe it. John
knows my limitations. But I'll tell
him got it from a friend who
wants to remain unidentified. But
what about the business details?
You'll want to be paid for this"
tHf VnII
Jim. Ten per cent for you. Agree
able?"
Jim Bromley nodded. "Well see
lawyer and get everything ship
! shape" He solemnly held out his
hand and they shook on the bargain.
That was Tuesday. Wednesday.
at the plant, John North called
Joan into his private office. His
desk was Uttered with blueprints.
A glance told Joan they were her
plans-Jim Charters plans.
Joan he said, and it was the
first time he had used her given
name, something's turned up. Cam
eel my appointments. I'm going to
Washington, to the War Depart
ment."
Yes, Mr. North"
He looked at her suddenly, as if
surprised that she too wasn't ex-
cited. And his glanse fingered,
grew personal. He grinned boy
ishly.
Excuse my excitement" he said.
But just when I felt licked things
turned out for the best. You can't
know how I feel
I'm sure I can," Joan said.
He turned to the desk and began
rolling up the blue prints. Joan
started to help him. They both
reached for the last, both a great
deal excited. and John Norths
hand accidently closed on Joan's.
He didn't release her hand at once.
He looked at her, smiling.
When get back" he said. well
step out and celebrate"
Joan met his eyes. She said, "You
forget that I'm your secretary-and
that you don't like glamour girls"
He laughed. Il did say that once.
didn't I?' he asked. well, we can
always break a rule"
Joan said nothing to that. She
drew her hand away from his. She
put the blueprints in his bag while
he got into his hat and coat. She
smiled when he said. I'm of. Wish
me luck"
She did wish him luck. The old
Charters luck.

aid in alleviating this suffering
Through the American Red Cross,
the Friends of France and the Bun
dies for Britain there are offered
opportunities for such assistance.
From 4 to pm. today the presi-
dent and officers of Bundles for
Britain" will entertain at a garden
tea at the British Embassy through
the courtesy of the British Ambas-
sador, the Marques Of Lothian. In
vitations have been issued to large
number of WashingtonianS, but as
a member of the Sponsoring Com
mittee, I should like to extend an
invitation to those of you who are
interested to attend this tea. There
are no tickets being sold, but an
admission of ST is being charged.
For those who do not understand
just what this Bundles for Britain"
means, allow me to explain that it
refers to bundles of WOOL which
are distributed to persons who can
and will knit garments for use
among British soldiers and other
needy people. The headquarters of
the association is at 1881 Connecti-
cut avenue NV, and it is there that
these bundles of WOOL may be OBJ
tanned and where the finished
articles may be delivered.
This is only one of the ways in
which members of parent-teacher
associations and their friends may
be of assistance in this present world
upset. Undoubtedly calls for help
will be received for long time in
this country, and I am certain that
every one of you will do whatever
you can to bring measure Of COM
fort to these people, who, after all,
are just our neighbors across the
sea.

where you live. Our leaflet THE
Different Date" contains many help
full suggestions. A few possibilities:
Dancing, bicycle riding, ice or roller
skating, amusement parks, athletic
contests, concerts, radio broadcaSts,
walking, church social affairs.
Watch the amusement section of
your newspaper for special events.
@. What's a good line for a girl
who doesn't know many people and
isn't terribly popular with those she
has just met?
A. We don't like the word Zine"
because it implies set program of
manufactured and insincere chat
ter, deliberately designed to create
what is often a false impression.
Any girls best Zine" Is sincerity
and naturalness, rejecting her own
individuality. The quickest way to
interest a new acquaintance is to
show a genuine interest in him
Everybody has something of interest
about him if you'll make an effort
to find it-and making that effort
gets your mind of yourself and helps
cure shyness
@. If a girl invites an escort and
another couple to have dinner with
her in restaurant. when does she
pay for the dinner? Does she tip,
and if so, when? Does she select the
dinner. and if so. when?
A. The smoothest procedure is to
handle the whole matter in advance.
She can visit the restaurant, select
the meal, and pay for it, adding
about 10 per cent as a tip. She can
arrange with the waiter or proprietor
to give her guests choice of various
items if she prefers.

it. If one wants to 60 to place of
amusement, wild horses couldn't t
drag the other there If one believes
a thing, the other SCOTS at it. And
while it is true after one of these
scrimmages in which they have
called each other every opprobrious
name they could think of and ac-
cused each other of every crime,
they do kiss and make up.
But the peace never lasts. They
are at 1t again the next moment.
Such marriage is hell on earth
fol both parties, and any man or
woman is foolhardy to go into one.
If before marriage you discover
that there is something in a girls
nature that is antagonistic to you
or that for some reason everything
she says and does gets upon your
nerves. don't marry her. Don't fool
yourself into thinking that you can
get along with her after marriage
when you couldn't do so before mar
riage. There are 100000 more
things for a husband and wife to
quarrel over than there are for
sweethearts to disagree about.
Pick out for wife a girl who
knows how to smooth your fur down
instead OF one who rubs 1t the wrong
way.

Manners
of the
Moment

Some men had a wonderful time
during the income tax throes. They
have somehow managed, over the
years, to force their wives into do
ing the real job of figuring it all out.
So that leaves them free to do bit
Of back seat figuring.
And do they love it?
On the last night, when the wife is
groaning and moaning and has ink
spots on her nose and circles under
her eyes, the husband parades
cheerfully about the house shout
ing at her such helpful sentences
as "It's easy, Susie. All you have
to do is add and multiply" Or. why
take it so seriously? There's only
one chance in a thousand that
they'll ever read it over"
And that, the wives say, Is no help.
I consider these wives very long
suffering. If the man makes the
income, I should think the least
he could do would be to figure out
his debt to his country. But If the
routine is set and there's no chance
of change, then, were the wife, I'd
lock him In the bathroom on the
night that the job is to be done.
You can remember that, girls,
next time the chore turns up.
