sense of continuity. What more
could a man ask?
And now June's molasses hair
and cornfower blue eyes swan
into his vision. He was pleased and
inwardly amused. She was all
dressedup. The silver. high-waisted
frock with narrow straps over her
pretty shoulders and the full cir
cular skirt gave her extra height
and something else. What was it?
Dignity. Yes, that was it. That
was what amused him. Like a little
girl all dressed up.

Good evening. Father"
"Father"? When had that re-
placed the homely "Dad',? He
laughed good-naturedly, hardly
looking at the tall, distinguished
man at her side. Don't l rate the

Ned looked into the dark, faint
ly amused, absolutely assured eyes
of Mr.. Chevalier Grey. and auto
matically shook hands. How do
you do. Mr.. Grey?" His own
poise. with just the right amount
of detachment, the exact ounce of
oordiality as master of the house,
was beyond question. But his feel
ings were very mixed. This was no
boy friend of his kid daughter.
This man was his own equal in
experience if not in years, and he
could not be quite sure of the
years. There was gray in the hair

guished clubmen in red coats with
hunting dogs lying submissively
at their feet - the gallery of
knowledgeable bachelors or of
hardy divorces. Mr.. Chevalier
Grey obviously knew what the
score was at every moment.
BUT Ned's appraisal was less
notable for what it told him about
the gentleman than for what it
told him about his daughter. With
a slight shock, he was confronted
with the fact that she had grown
up. She was a woman. She was old
enough to attract men like this.
And then, with an heroic effort, he
dismissed the whole notion.

somewhat false heartiness. What

LABoR'S SHARE IN
BUILDING COST

New York - ZAP - The labor
portion of construction cost is
about the same today as 20 years
ago. Myron L. Matthews of the
Dow Service Building Reports,
finds the percentage Of building
cost involved in payrolls on the
site varies among projects. but
the average has ranged between
80 per cent and 38 per cent.
"For. one-family houses aver
aging under SIS, 600 without land"
he says, "the payroll ranges
around 40.7 per cent, as against
32.5 per scent for houses in the
$4,000 to $4,000 group, and 30.7
per cent for houses costing $10,-
600 and over. Labor cost in rela-
ton to total cost has been greater
on large-scale operations than on
small projects. The higher per-
centages were experienced in the
