realized the stir 1t would make. She seemed to see newspaper headlines. Davenport Heiress Disappears"
 Clarence would be wild, search ing for her. Once he had asked her about Kidnapping. Tn Europe" he said, i've always understood that American heiresses were in constant danger of being kidnapped for ransom" Suppose they thought she was Kidnapped?
 Shivers of apprehension went up and down her spine. What an idiotl Not to have thought of that soonerl Beatrice Davenport couldn't simply disappear into thin air. There'd be consternation, tur- moil, private detectives, all man. ners of carryings onl
 What could she do? If only she'd been going away on trip and then simply not boarded the boat or traini Or if she'd come back from Florida without notify ing Weeming that she was back.
 "I'll telephone MT. Weeming. I'll say I've decided to 90 toto South America. I'll say I'm leav- ing immediately, don't know when I'll come back"
 Yes, that was 1t. She could easily get information on sailing dates, the name of some ship. T won't phone Clarence, though. When he begins to wonder he'll know enough to get hold of Weemie. Weemie will tell him I've gone to South America"
 She felt distinctly relieved when that was settled. Toby called sleepily, "Is your bed all right?"
 Its fine, thank you," Beatrice said, snapping off the light. Good night"
 Beatrice had noS been sleeping more than Q few minutes, 1t seem- ed, when Toby was shaking her. Heavens, are you one of those people who never hear alarm clocks? Get @ move onl We'll be latel"
 It was 7:16. Beatrice rubbed her heavy eyes. Dawn was Q good tAHae " WniQ up pdEtyp pub tIAe thought of crawling out of bed now made her i'll. For Q dizzy moment, too, she wasn't fully awake and couldn't remember where she was.
 DO you want @ job, or don't you?" demanded Toby callously. She was completely dressed, the fat half-moon curl on the back of her head freshly brushed, her lipstick bright. You've got 10 minutes or I leave without you"
 It all came back to Beatrice. She jumped out of bed, one bare foot automatically feeling for the mules that were always placed beside her bed. They weren't there, of course. She ran to the bathroom, the floor shockingly cold against the soles of her feet.
 When she emerged, Toby had cup of black coffee for her. That's all. Vera finished the cake last night"

Tits all l want"
By Win Donch

1CS all l want"
 They raced for the subway. On the platform, Toby separated her paper. "Read the want ads. Maybe Huntington's won't hire you" The ads were bewildering. "Bookkeeper, must have NOR ex- perience." Buyer, children's wash dresses" Cashier for movie house, must be attractive"
 At Times Square, the train dis gorged its load of humanity. Like 8 bewildered sheep, Beatrice clung to Toby. The early morning sum light of 42d street was bleak and cold and unfamiliar. The two girls walked rapidly in the stream of people, Hike cattle" Beatrice thought, to Sixth avenue.
 
 At the employees entrance-"And I never so much as realized there was an employees entrancel" - Toby squeezed her hand. T go this way. You go up those stairs, the person. mel office is on the balcony. Remem- Der, be dignified and refined and say you've always loved retailing. It's your ambition, you're crazy about 1t, you want to learn even though you've had no experience. For heavens sake, look her in the eye and be 80 damned poised 1t hurts"
 Beatrice braced herself. At the open door which bore the letters, Personnel Office," she pinned a smile on her lips. They couldn't possibly recognize her the very thought was fantastic. To this brisk, sharp-eyed woman behind the desk she was only one of hun- dreds of applicants. She walked up to the desk.
 I'm applying for Q sales posi- tion," she said levelly.

. STORIES
 IN STAMPS
Stamps Trace History Of Worlds Transport

YOU can go almost anywhere in A the world in practically any type vehicle in a stamp collection! One of the oldest types of primi- tive transport Is pictured on tho North Borneo stamp above.
 Many stamps are designed to show progress of transportation, Such a stamp was New Zealand's z centennial issue showing OK cart, railroad, steamship and airplane. Canoe, sailing vessel and steam- ship were pictured on the U. S. IHudson-Fulton Recent issue of 1909.
 Stamps keep pace with advances in transportation, as evidenced by the streamlined trains of Ru- mania's railroad issue, one of many such designs. Trucks and buses have found their way into stamp albums.
 In the air, stamp designers have traced the progress of aviation from Pilatre de Rozier and his balloon to Zeppelins, and from Leonardo da Vinci's flying ma chine to the 1940 airliners. U. &. issues include aircraft from the Wright plane to the trsns-Pacifc Clippers. -
