phone to talk with Aunt Daisy al
the Copper Creek ranch, Ylena ard
Rose to the apartment over the
shop. Before going to sleep, the
girl crept downstairs, pulled the
heavy draperies across her front
windows, and moved leisurely
about, immensely proud Of the
beautiful articles which were, after
fashion, her possessions. She real
lied that, in spite of the indolent
pleasures of the past weeks, she
was glad to be back home-back
in the little world she had made for
herself, with a firm grip on her
emotions.
On her desk was stack Of notes,
tabulating calls from Diane O'Neil.
Ylena frowned. wondered what
could have caused such persis-
tence. Also, there were letters and
memorandums, bills and invoices,
and various business data, all in
expert order, according to their
dates. Barker was truly marvellous,
Ylena thought with gratitude, and
went back upstairs to her gray and
rose-satin bedroom.
Long before business hours she
was up. dressed in a beige suede
dress and her silver Concho belt,
and in the shop. About 9 o'clock
Barker came in, a bulging brief
case beneath her arm, and there
followed the usual jargon Of greet
ings, laughter and chatter Of two
persons talking at once. They went
into the little alcove office.
Barker took off her hat, spread
out sketches and plans on the desk,
and instantly got down to business.
Here's what l have in mind for

"a high-class saloon" Barker
explained. She passed palm tree
sketches to her employer.
Enthusiastically the girl began
telling about the many exquisite
tropical scenes she had visited.

You should have filled your lug
gage with Jamaica bamboo. That's
what we need for atmosphere fur
niture. BY the way, it's no business
of mine. but did Tate Cromwell
show up in Kingston ?"
Ylena gave an almost imper-
ceptible nod OF her head. Il saw
him for about two minutes"
Diane figured he had gone TO see
you. Not that she knew where you
were, but she knew Tate had gone
somewhere because she got to
shopping and found a check-stub in
Tate's book. with Lily Cashions

Ylena said. 81 would never re-

diamond studded wrist watch.

well, what are you looking so
glum about?" she asked, and for
some reason, possibly the express
sion on the older womans face,
burst into laughter.
Rose relaxed and laughed also.
Nothing" She turned to answer
the knock at the door.
Taylor Cromwell, Jr., walked in
and confronted Ylena with an &C.
cusiHg glare. Rose he ignored en-
tirely. $50 you won't talk to me ?"
He tried to take hold OF her.
Her rigid body held him at bay,
You'd better be glad, because If
once started talking to you, I'd
never stop, and you wouldn't like
what I'd say" She gathered up her
white gloves, purse, cigaret case
and packet Of matches from the
writing desk. You'll have to ex-
cuse us, Tate. We have a date
with Scott Hamilton and hardly
think he would include you. Let's
go. Rose" With that woman as a
willing bodyguard, she ushered
Tate from their room.
Rebellious, frustrated, complete
ly Infatuated at the turn Of events,
there was nothing for him to do
about it. For the first time he was
unable to make an impression on
Ylena, and certainly he stood no
chance Of managing the battle-axe
with her. He knew that without
trying.
To make things worse. Hamilton
met them in the lobby. Young
Cromwell forced himself to speak
to Scott, who lifted a quizzical eye
brow and said. 81 saw you get off
the boat. Are they having a real
estate convention down here ?"
With no further words, Tate turned
on his heel and left.
Clarkson had come nearly enough
running the trip. Tate Cromwell
actually had done it. Ylena real
lied that as they sat over Daiquiris
at Charley's. Scott Hamilton also
sensed II.
The girl said, Wed better fly

important to you, the way you're

Ylena took the field glasses of
Tate Cromwell and let them fall
on the dresser with a clank. DELHI
erately she turned her back to the
window. Il wonder what he's doing
here"
Chasing you. Of course"
The girl made an impatient ges-

all-white dress. Right now I'm go

hair and put on a cartwheel hat OF
white straw.
Just then the telephone rang
Rose frowned and answered. After
moment she said, "She isn't

Ylena heard Tates brisk yelling,
'T happen to know she is, so put

Rose shrugged and relinqulshed
the instrument. Ylena said, Hello,
Tate" Beneath the bodice OF her
white linen dress her heart beat
frantically, but her voice was calm.

State Surplus
Now $7,O34, OOl. "a

A record surplus of $7,O34,OO1.94
of State funds is, now in hand, Gov
ernor Herbert r. O'Conor announc-
ed, following receipt of figures for
the ten-months period of the pres
emit fiscal year ending July 31st.
Adherence to the Governors pleas
for economical administration of
the State Departments, together
with unforeseen increases in tax and
license receipts, have contributed to
the extremely healthy financial con-
dition of the State. This is in sharp
contrast to the picture presented
nearly three years ago, at the out
. set of the present Administration, at
which time the State was forced to
borrow for the payment of current
expenses.
Reversions to the State Treasurer
from budget appropriations for the
various departments over the past
two fiscal years have far exceeded
$1,O0O,00O. It is practically certain
that the reversions this year will
reach an appreciate additional
amount.

Large Barn Destroyed
Near Ouarryville

The large barn on the farm of
Mrs. Harry e. Herr, near Quarry
vile, Pa, was destroyed by fire on
Saturday, August 80.
The Hers own their own thresh-
ing outfit and at the time were en-
gagged i'm thrashing the wheat, when
one of the bearings of the thresher
became overheated and set fire to
the straw. The fire spread with such
rapidity that three of the Herr child
rem who were in the NOW escaped
from the burning structure by jump
ing out the forebay.
The loss of the. barn and contents
will reach $4,000. The tractor, fan
and a few other pieces of machinery,
were saved, but most everything
along this line was burned, includ-
ing the thresher, hay baler, mixing
machine, harness, 1900 bushels of
wheat, baled alfalfa, hay, straw,
lime, phosphate, oats and the like.
Since the death of Mr.. Herr not
long ago the family has been operat-
ing the farm as well as two adjoin-
ing properties, and crops from them
had been hauled to the large barn
on the home place, making the loss
greater than otherwise.

RURAL RECRUITS SOUGHT
BY UNITED STATES NAVY
Farley Held With County Newspaper Editors
To Launch Active Campaign

County newspaper editors and
representatives of the Navy Recruit
ing Department met at the Emerson
Hotel, Baltimore, ON Saturday, to
start a campaign for more recruits
from the rural areas.
The success of the venture seemed
certain when good omen appeared
in the person of Henry Croker, as
sociate editor of the Bel Air Aegis.
Before the meeting was over, Mr..
Crocker had signed up for the naval
air force.
The navy adopted its advertising
policy last June, and since that time
has been getting it under way in
various States. The plan is to buy ad
vertising space in the weekly news
papers of towns with less than
So 900 population and thus interest
many persons who could not be
reached from recruiting centers in
larger cities.
The program was adopted because
men have not been volunteering in
sufficient numbers to man the con-
templated two-ocean navy. In cir
cular letter sent to the editors be-
fore the meeting, Secretary Knox
said:
''The Navy has never lacked for
volunteers. Enlistments are now
coming in at far above the normal
rate. But now ships are being launch
ed at the rate of one every few days.
The two-ocean navy /. lis leaping
toward completion. Therefore, the
navy needs to double its quota of re-
cruits in the shortest possible time"
Commander James E. Boak, re-
cruiting inspector for the southeast
ern United States, said at the meet
ing that the navy needed $1,000 re-
