DALE FOR DINNER

So he hadn't seen Dale in tour
years. Harmon promptly invited
her 10 have dinner with HIM that
evening. for Two reasons neither
of them the right one. one was
that only an hour back when he
had telephoned Nollic Farls She
had told him with only conven-
tional regret that she cOuldn JOIN
him for dinner since She was due
10 have il with Bill Ainslec
The other was that beeattsc of
the way things were going be-
tween him and Mollie, what Har-
mon needed most at the moment
was a sympathetic ear.
If the ear happened 10 be at

recalled, girl-So much the bet

one, moreover, who had always IN
the past taken an active, under
standing interest in his affairs,
and was now bobbing up most
opportunity on months visit 10
New York-that, too, was all 10
the good.
BY the time the coffee came
they were practically back on the
old footing, so much so that Dale
could pause suddenly and ask:
Whats the matter, Harmon:
You don't look happy
YEARS RICH RIVAL
cor course I don't" Harmon
agreed instantly. I'm not. Los
ing your girl TO better man
isn't exactly conducive To con-
fentment."

"'Better' in quotes. Richer is

Dale said slowly. Maybe you're
doing Mollie an injustice. Maybe
she isn't the type 10 be unduly

Maybe she wants to be with Bill

SUDDEN INTEREST
Except" said Harmon, that
when 1 first introduced him TO
her, she barely noticed him, up
until the time, almost to the
hour, when I mentioned casu-
ally who he was financially and
who he would be. 1t was amaz-
Ing how her interest fared
UP and painful and embarrasS-
ing to yours truly TO watch how
hard she worked after that get
ting him TO notice her"
AND why thought Dale, do
you want TO marry a girl who's
practically for sale TO the high
est bidder"
Even as she supplied sadly, the
one and only answer, Harmon
who must have read her mind
confirmed IT,.
"She doesn't sound very high
minded, does shes" he admit
ted ruefully. but what can
do: I've done thorough job
of convincing myself that I'm i'm

MiIIers' Protest
Is DisanoWed

COLUMBUS, o., June rs (UP).
President George M. Trautman
of the American Association dis
allowed a protest filed by the
Minneapolis Millers on the "a VIC
tory of the Indianapolis Indians
over the Millers Monday night.
Manager Tom Sheehan OF the
Millers contended that Shelley OF
Indianapolis missed the plate In a
slide which scored the tying run
and that he was helped TO his feet
and pushed back by teammate
to touch the base. He said the
action constituted interference.
Trautman. basing his decision
on an umpires report. said that
Shelley did miss the base but tina
while on the ground he touched
the plate with his hand.
Thus. the action by his team
mate which would have constf-
tuted interference as charged,
had no bearing since the play
was completed when SHELLEY, un-
aided. touched the plate" Traut-
man said.

GIVES SOME TIPS

While there are scarcely three
other vaulters in the nation who
figure to do IS feet this year,
Corny's tips might do them some
good.
II hold my old pole (Which IS
fun of tape and rapidly showing

about three feet above their grip,

Peanut Oil
By Patricia Lindsay

From our neighbors south Of us
comes q line Of beauty aids which
are mixed to attack the signs
of age without massage. The signs
Of age-as you may have guessed
are wrinkles. Wrinkles around the
eyes. the mouth and on the throat.
Peanut OIL is the base for most Of
these creams. pomades and lotions
something novel for the North
American beauty. The richness Of
this Oil does a nice job Of lubricating
too dry skin or the skin which is
aging.
If you are at all curious about
these products you could begin 4
very complete home treatment with
cleansing soap and two creams,
especially II dry skin, tired skin,
blackheads, whiteheads. pimples or
large pores have become q beauty
problem.
The soap is used with companion
sponge in a good lather. Then the
skin is rinsed of we'll before the
heavier pomade cream is applied.
The cream is first mixed with water,
ar a solution of the same brand,
into a paste form before it Is applied
to the face and neck thus making
1t more or less of a masque treat
ment. This is allowed to dry thor
oughly before 1t is removed with
warm water.
The final step is the safeguard
against more wrinkles-the applica-
ton of a lovely, rich cream which
may be left on for an hour or two
or overnight, if you desire.
1t is claimed that these two
creams contain vitamins and other
ingredients which the skin seems
to require. That you may determine
after giving them fair trial!
OF course. there are other aids IN
this line which might be just what
you are hankering for. 1t might
paw YOU in beauty dividends to do
q little investigating!
But let me again warn my readers
that one cannot expect magic from
cosmetics unless personal effort is
