Up, up, up. go the skirts and
down. down go the shoulder lines.
Like 1t or not, girls, the skirt
lengths are definitely shorter this
fall. Instead of ten to twelve
inches. they're shown a good four
teen inches from the floor. That's
about midcalf length; a little more
legs showing this fall, girls. AS for
the shoulders, an entire Paris col
lection emphasizes drop shoulders.
The turtle necked jersey is stag
ing a comeback this year. The
fabric Is usually worstel jersey in
green, copper, royal, black, beige,
grey and any number of popular
colors. The wool jersey dress
should never be left out of a so
wardrobe. On the whole, colors are
much brighter this season. Quite
a few reds are being shown, also
light to dark blues. Camel has also
won a place on the hit parade.
Tweeds. tweeds. and more tweeds
for the high school and college
girls wardrobe this fall. Sweaters,
skirts, coats and suits are all be-
splced by the ever-so-stylish tweed.
Well, girls, there's the spotlight
revue of the fall fashions. Let's
see 1t shine on you.

Department in charging motorists

almost ridiculous" yesterday by
Traffic Judge Roy De Grief.
The judge made the remark
after Patrolman Myron c. Max

Jarrett with drunken and reckless
irving because police policy
makes Il mandatory to file both
charges If a defendant refuses to
take the Harger drunkometer test
or to answer questions.
1.-The law gives a person the
right to refuse to take the Harger
test or a physical test" Judge De
Grief commented. under the law.
the defendant also does not have to
answer any questions asked him
by police. Refusing TO answer
cannot be held against him."
The trouble is THAI not enough
eople know that" replied Albert
}. Rosellini, Jarrett's attorney.
De Grief, an plifying his COM
arr,s. said out of court that the
'aw requires person to produce
his drivers license when asked to

When he returned with the box
of groceries, the boy was still
standing by the table. you hum
uy?" Martin asked.
= mo, sir"
''Well you'd ought to have a
hot drink, I should think, before
going to bed. There's some milk
here. III warm it."
1T sure would taste good"
Joey said.
Martin trudged into the kitchen
and lit the stove with kindling
from the woodbox. He knew the
house pretty well: many a time,
while fishing, he'd come ashore on
the island to wait out a rain. He
poured milk into a pan and set it
on the stove, then turned to Joey.
Keep an eye on that while l 20
upstairs"
Upstairs he found blankets in
chest and carried them to the front
bedroom. 1t was damp and cold in
the room, and if the fog turned
into rain there'd be puddles on the
floor by morning. to judge by the
look of the ceiling: but it would do
for one night. He took his hand
kerchief and wiped some of the
dust off the twin beds and the
bureau tops, then went downstairs.
JOEY was waiting for him. He'd
found cups and saucers in the
kitchen cupboard and put knives
and spoons on the table: and he'd
got loaf of bread and a package
Of butter out of the box of grocer
les. The hot milk was in a pitcher
on the table.
Il guess you're hungry after 60
ing all the way to the Home for
me-" the boy said. Il fixed you
something to eat"
Il guess we're both hungry"
said Martin. He fetched the box of
groceries and took out a jar of
strawberry jam. Eat all you
want"
When they were through. Mar

ton. That's better" he said.

joey went without protest, and
there was no humping around in
the upstairs room while he n-
dressed himself. But in a few min
utes he called down from the head
OF the stairs. ''Mr. Peterman,
which bed will / sleep in?"
Take your pick" Martin
Peterman answered. ....

There was a little silence. Then
Joey called down, Might. Mr..
Peterman."
Good night"
1t was raining when Martin
awoke the next morning. The fop
was gone. but the room was cold
and gray. He swung his legs out of
bed and saw with surprise that the
other bed was empty. A drop of
water fell from the cracked ceiling
as he sat there scowling. His gaze
Travelled to the place it had come
from. then down again. The whole
upper end of the boys bed was
sopping wet from the rain that
had dripped during the night.
"Tarnation!" Martin muttered.
liz DRESSED quickly and went
down. The table had been
scrubbed and was set with dishes
that sparkled. Eggs and bacon
were sputtering in a frying pan on
the stove. Coffee perked cheer
fully. Martin grunted approval
and sat down to eat. ''You had
yours?" he asked.

well. sit, then! Sit!"
I'll just put some water on to
heat for the Dishes" Joey said.
And -" he seemed to hesitate a
second II got plenty here for
you to wash up in. if you want it"
Martin got up from the table
and went to the sink and washed
his face and hands.
After breakfast he announced
that he was going down to work
on the boat.
Can I help?" the boy asked.
mo sense in both of us getting
soaked. You stay here. l guess you
can find something to do to amuse
yourself.
He hadn't much hope of getting
the boat to run. What it needed,
was a complete overhaul and
probably some new parts. But he
might as well be tinkering with it
as sitting in the house just waiting
for time to pass.
lHE fact was "a lot of time
might pass before anyone came
looking for them. Mary would
think they had stayed in Norport
over night, on account of the fog.
Norm Andrews, who knew they
we1ent in Norport, would think
they'd arrived home safe. They
were faced with the prospect of
being stuck here on fuckers

MARTIN went down to the boat.
From his tackle box in the locker
he took two handlines and a jar of
picked sinners, and sitting on
deck in the sunshine he rigged the
lines with hooks and sinkers. Joey
was on the porch, sweeping up a
pile of winter leaves and pine
needles, when he came back.
How'd you like to 60 fishin'
for a spell?" Martin asked.
The boy stopped sweeping.
Gee. Mr.. Petezman, - I'd like
it a lot." he said. 'But I'm no

Martin couldn't help being an
noyed. Through" he demanded.
Through with What?
why - cleaning up. Getting
things ready. %
Ready for what7"
Why" Joey said, for Mrs.
Peterman.
Martin stood at the foot of the
porch steps, staring. He put a
hand up to scratch at his chin.
It came to him slowly. "Mrs.
Peterman?" he echoed weakly.
MY Lord. boy, you don't think
this is the house you're to live in!''
Joey was bewildered. but =.
but isn't it,"
Course it isn't! We live on a
big island. boy! We have a farm,
a big farm. and a real house. My
Lord lis that why you've been
workin' every minute?" Martin
sat down. feeling weak in his knees.
joey sat down, too. He looked
disappointed for a second, and
then ashamed. Gee, I'm a DOPE"
he said at last. But Il but Mrs.
Peterman said you lived on an
island, and when the engine
stopped on the way here you said
there was nothing wrong. l thought
II thought =" He quit and
shook his head. Then surprisingly,
he grinned. He had an easy,
bright-eyed grin. MY gosh, I'm
durnb!"
Martin stood up again and
frowned at him. Don't yom apollo
gize, Martin said grufily. You're
talking to the dumbest human be-
ing that ever walked this earth.
Put away that broom now and
let's 60 fishin'." He turned abrupt
ly and strode down the path.
i HEY were fishing when Norm
Andrews stopped by in his boat an.
hour or 80 later to pick them up.
At any rate. Joey was fishing.
Martin Peterman was patiently
teaching him how to heave a
handline.
Joey was getting the hang of it,
too. Real fast. Even Norm noticed.
''You just wait till I've had him
few months" Martin said proud
ly, with his arm around the boys
shoulders. Hell be the equal of
any youngster in Norport. My
Evening star., 1949-12-11

He worked on the boat all morn
ing, and was wet through and irri-
table when he trudged back to the
house at noon. What he saw puz-
zled him.
Lunch was on the table, and
Joey was standing on a chair,
washing out the top shelves of the
china closet. The kitchen floor had
been scrubbed and the windows
washed. In the sitting room every
blessed thing was neat and clean.
Martin scratched at the stubble
on his chin. 1t was all right, he
supposed. He couldn't see much
sense to it, but he had to admit the
boy had kept busy. If it ,cas me
and had nothin' to do, he thought,
I'd rig UP a line and 60 fshis'.
After lunch he helped Joey with
the dishes, and then went back to
the boat He was getting worried.
A stiff northeast wind had blown
up. and if it turned into a real
northeast storm, Mary might 20
right on thinking he and Joey
were in Norport, waiting it out.
He got the gas line and carburetor
out of the engine and cleaned
them, then put them back and
tried it. Nothing happened. His
mood was as miserable as the
weather when he trudged to the
house at four O'Clock.
HE boy was upstairs, hammer
ing. Martin went to the foot of the
stairs and listened awhile, then
called iritably. "Joey!"
I'm in the bedroom, Mr.. Peter
man." Joey called down. Can
you wait a second?"
Martin went up. The boy had
moved his bed to one side and was
standing on a stepladder, break
ing the plaster out of the wet place
in the ceiling. He was a sight, COW
cred with bits of plaster.
Il went out on the roof and
found the hole where the rain
came in, and fixed it with some
tarpaper," he said. "And l found
some patching plaster down eel
lar" He waited for Martin to
answer him and then said, half
apologetically, This is a good
time to patch the ceiling. when
II wet.
Martin watched him. It seemed
like a lot of work just to keep
from having a wet bed. Be a lot
easier, he thought, to move the
bed over against the wall. But it
will keep him busy - and there's
no sense in letting a good house 60
to ruin before its time.
He had things figured out now.
The trouble with. Joey was that he
was restless and fidgety. That
came of living in place like the
Home. Martin guessed. The boy
worked hard to forget his troubles.

Dorothy Dix SAYS
Smart Guy Makes No Friends

Ithink they are being witty when
they are just being stupid. They
are show -offs who are trying to
call attention to themselves and
haven't enough intelligence to
realize that they are making pub
lie spectacles Of themselves.
Before you were married your
husband never thought Of you as
the fat woman Of the circus. On
the contrary, he couldn't. praise
your sylph-like figure enough and,
as a matter of fact. still thinks
that YOU could be q Powers model
in a fashion show. When he holds
you up to ridicule he doesn't mean
word of 1t. He Is just trying to
be funny.
Nearly every family is affiicted
with one Of these smart guys whose
whole conversational repertoire
consists in calling q cripple Hip
perty Joe" or asking an old maid
when she is going to be married. ].
They think that shows how bril-
liant they are. but every one else
thinks what cads they are.
Any man who makes his wife
the stalking horse Of his poor Jokes
deserves to have something with
boiling oil In 1t done to him.
