After a de lightful summer at Sloane's luxurious home, she is awaiting hfs return from Europe at his town house. The only disturbing factor in her new world is Sheila True, actress and close friend of Julian's who is jealous of his new secretary. Sheila also is anticipating Julian's arrival and has her own reception planned for him much to Joans disappointment. l),ning alone in Greenwich Village, Joan meets Donald Newberry whom she hasn't seen in jiears. They both drop in at Hetty Robinson's, an old school churn of Joan's. Joan spends the night at the Robinson's. (NOW GO OX WITH THE STORY) CHAPTER 22 BRRR . . . IJRURRRR . . . It was a boat whistle. No, It was a bell and it was on a ship. Julian’s ship. Joan was trying: frantically to get to him. Someone was holding: her i>f»ok and she tried to shake that person off. “Come on sleepy head, we’ve over slept a whelo hour. It’s after nine.” Joan opened her eyes and rubbed them. Betty, in pajamas, sat down on the edge of her hod. “T called the office and said I wouldn’t be in until noon but I didn’t know whether you had to get up early or not.” “Yes, I must,” Joan swung her lithe self out of bed, yawned, stretched, reached fingertips to toes without bending her knees and sniffed the coffee aroma hungrily. First day back on the job late. She got a perverse pleasure out of that. “Remember what we were talking about last night?” Betty inquired over their toast and scrambled eggs. “ITh, huh," Joan admitted, unwill ing to face the issue in the morning light. Betty’s small apartment looked so exactly like what Joan would have desired to call her own. The chintz was so gay, the sunlight streaming through arse windows sprayed gold on the mahogany and silver, the worn rug and cheerful walls. The dinette had an air of Intimacy in which two people shared their hopes and happiness. And in the nursery there was a little curly headed boy who looked like his father. Which was, as Joan thought, the way it should be to make life complete. “Well,” Betty poured the coffee, **we’ll have to talk it over at length. You’ll find things quite different here.” “I hope so,” Joan didn’t commit herself further. "When I first came to New York, fresh from school in Boston, I was the most self-satisfied somebody you ever saw. I thought everybody else was out of step but I’ve learned I was wrong.” Joan hoped that Betty wasn’t go ing to be confidential about things she didn’t want to hear about at this hour of the morning. Confidences by candlelight wore one thing but there was something so sensible about sunlight and early morning which were part of Joan that she was wary of other tilings she sensed. “You haven’t told me a thing about yourself. That is, the real you. Joan. We were only young sters in Boftton. Rots of things must have happened to you since. Such as being Julian Sloane’s secre tary. Tell me about them.” Joan told her how she got her job with Julian. She told her about Dorothy and Blakeville. And then she stopped. “But, darling, you can’t be as pretty and attractive as you are AND tS without all sorts of other things happening to you.” Joan buttered a r’ece of toast and, munching it, said, “Oh, I fell Jn love with a boy but it just didn’t work.” She told her briefly how she and Win had had an “understanding” and as time went on, Win had found him self in love. * “I told you everything was differ ent.” Betty said sagely. “Under standings’ don’t mean a thing any more. The tempo and the meaning of things has changed. Competition Is awfully keen these days.

I’ve seen an awful lot more than you have, Joan. We were brought up to be old-fashioned girls who be lieved in honor and lasting love. Not many people believe in either one any more. The average girl gets married today with the thought in the l>aclc of her head that if it doesn't work, she can get a quick divorce.” “I don’t like it.” Joan announced, putting down the cream pitcher with more force than it deserved. “What woman does?” Betty an swered calmly. “The point is that what women like and what women get are two entirely different things.” “If what you say is true,” Joan was completely at sea, “why don’t women do something about It?” “Whoops!” Betty looked bitterly amused. “Whatever made you think that women had the power to do anything. The trouble with our world is that the women of the gen eration before ours did so much dur ing the war to share their part of the burden by giving all, they knocked the props out from every thing and we suffe the conse quences.” “Oh,” Joan said, and mentioned something about the flaming youth era. “Flaming youth era, my eye!” her hostess rejoined heatedly. “They had nothing to do with it! In the flaming youth era they wore short skirts, drank gin from flasks, wore open galoshes and talked in slang phrases and their ‘madness* stopped right there. But the standards had changed! “The minute that women got self sacrificing, they were sunk. When gentlemen discovered that ‘nice girls’ were theirs In a spirit of Give All, they forgot it was a wartime Idea. It was very convenient for them to forget. Then women began having careers and shouting their foolish heads off about Equal Rights." “I don’t want any equal rights,” Joan said passionately. “I want someone to love. Someone who loves me. I want to argue about the price of turnips or spinach. I want a flower garden. I want someone to talk about the books I like. I want someone who’ll tell me about him self. I want sons who’4l look like him and daughters who’ll be . ..” “I know," Betty said consolingly, “and you’ll go ar.d fall In love with someone who’ll want you to bo tech nically true to him and make every other man who meets you think you’d be a 'fine date’.” “But, Betty, you aren’t consistent. North Carolina, of the House con ferees, expressed confidence that by tonight “we shall be able to turn the bill over to the drafting service.” After it is drawn it must be ratified by both chambers.

I’m a modern wife. Bob gets a vicarious thrill out of thinking how broadminded he is. Not that I think Bob is actually un faithful to me. I’m quite sure he isn't but it’s his nature and his train ing to think that marriage shouldn’t hamper him, that he is still Mr, Adonis to the ladies and why shouldn’t I play? I’ll tell you one thing, Joan, I’m living for the day when we move out to a suburb and I don’t have to go to an office, when Bob will have to catch a 5:15. Then, everything will bo different, but we got off to a bad start. I kept my job. Never do that. And always—■ even if you have to be dishonest with yourself—think of yourself as a wife. Not as an Individual!” “Rots of good that will do me," Joan said to herself riding up Fifth avenue In a slow-moving bus as she contemplated her first lesson from Betty. That was one of those mo ments that descend heavily on an unmarried girl. Fat chance she’d have of ever being any kind of a wife. It was almost 11 when she ran up the brown stone steps of Julian’s house. All the excitement of meeting Donald Newberry, of seeing her old friend and their personal remem brances had driven every thought of Julian from her mincL Now, pressing the doorbell, she found that the thought of seeing him again was accelerating the beat of her heart. Mrs. Henderson opened the door. “Joan! We were just about to tele phone the hospitals and police! Mr. Julian has been frantic with worry!" “But why?” Joan was completely puzzled. "Is tliat Joan?” It was Julian’s voice followed by Julian himself at the top of the stairs. “Hello,” she said in an uncertain voice and not with the words she had planned at all. “My dear!" He ran down the stairway and grasped both her hands, “How you frightened us! We couldn’t imagine where you were. You completely ruined my first night at home. I had planned to dine alone with you.

IS INDICTED IN SHORTAGE CASE Grand Jury Declines, How ever, To Return True Bill Against Cottrell A true bill charging M. G. Hight, former tax collector for Vance coun ty, with failing to turn over $1,722.29 was returned in Vance Superior Court today by the grand jury at the June criminal term. The presentment sent to the grand jury by Solicitor W. H. S. Burgwyn also named E. A. Cottrell, but the grand jury failed to indict him when it appeared that he had collected tax es under Hight’s direction and had turned the money over to Hight and held the latter’s receipts. Hight for a number of years has listed taxes for Henderson township, and when that work was completed devoted much of his time to collec tion of back taxes prior to the cur rent tax year. The alleged shortage occurred more than a year ago. SECOi POST RACE^ Opening of Headquarters by Horton Indication of Determination' Dolly DlHitntoh Itarena, In The Sir Wolter Hotel. By J. C. IIASKERV’I',I, Raleigh, June 17. —The campaign for the Democratic nomination for lieutenant governor in the second pri mary promises to arouse almost as much interest as the campaign for the nomination for governor with indica tions that it is going to be much more intensive. The contest for the nomi nation in the run-off is between Paul D. Grady, of Kenly, Johnston county, and W. P. Horton, of Pittsboro, Chat ham county. Horton announced last week, when he called for a second primary, that he intended to wage an even more ag gressive campaign than he did prior to the first primary, and that he would open State headquarters here and have a State campaign manager. The Horton headquarters is now open and busy on the tenth floor of the Sir Walter hotel, in the same rooms used as campaign headquarters by Sandy Graham foefore the first pri mary. Daniel R. Bell, of Pittsboro, judge of the Chatham county record er’s court, is in charge of the new headquarters as Horton’s campaign manager and Judge Walter L. Siler, veteran of many Statewide cam paigns; E. B. Hatcfy, clerk of court in Chatham, J. Wade Siler, register of deeds and other Democratic leaders in Chatham county, are assisting him. “The united democracy of Chat ham county feels that Senator Horton should be the next lieutenant gover nor of North Carolina and are con fident he will be nominated in the second primary,” Judge Bell said to day. “Besides being well fitted for the duties of this important office, he has renderd such long, loyal and efficient service to the party as merits recog nition. In addition, it should be re memberd that Chatham county has been Democratic since it first became a county, but has never been honor ed by having one of its sons elected to a major state office. Only once, in 1872, has Chatham county ever had a candidate for a state office and in that year the entire state Demo cratic ticket followed Horace Greely, the Democratic nominee for president, to defeat.” The Horton supporters are confid ent that a larger percentage of those who voted for George McNeill in the first primary and who ran third, will vote for Horton than for Grady 1n the second primary. The prevailing belief is that Grady is the McDonald candidate and that Horton is running “on his own.” U. S. Hospital Is Forced to Grant Strikers’ Demand (Continued Trow* Page One.) 1 could not guarantee necessary care for the patients, 23 of whom are in a serious condition.

With all due respect to Colonel Frank Knox the vice presidential can didate he is not a heavyweight as a vote-getter. Massachusetts is anybody’s guess, although the Republicans claim it as a certainty. Some of the editors there are not so certain. Kansas may be counted in the Re publican column, even though the Democrats plan to put up a stiff fight there among the farmers. California will go Democratic, ac cording to present indications. The foregoing facts were obtained from observers who attended the Cleveland convention. The observers —all Republicans—admitted the facts were not such as to breed optimism at the moment, but they looked for Alfred Mossman Landon to make a fighting campain. TOO MANY DISGRUNTLED The campaign will begin with for mer leaders and other forces on both sides disgruntled and sitting in their tents. On the Democratic side, the Alfred E. Smith group has no place to go. The Kansas governor is not the type. to appeal to the Happy Warrior and his New Yorkers. Besides the east erners still do not trust Kansas on money. On the Republican side, Senator William E. Borah —the Lion from Idaho who growls but never Ibites— will go into a cave and hide. And Senator Vandenberg, the sage from Michigan, although he has de clared he will speak with all liis pow er for the Landon ticket, lias his eyes upon 19-10. It is said he would have taken the nomination if it had been given him by acclamation but while he had been sleeping during the wee hours, Colonel Knox’s managers had tied up the Pennsylvania delegates. 50.: Jergens Lotion . 39.. j 11 7 \ 25c Johnson hnby powder l!tr /b— 25c Ammpns heat powder 19c \ j Isc Noz/cma skin cream . 15c ' i n “ * * 9 '\il I Wine of Cardiff Xfir 1 2 V' »<' l »dr.v Soap, S for Shari Face Powder and Perfume Both for $1.19 fejl l||SM|||l Rexall Shaving Cream and Lotion Both for 29c fj||j Jonteel Face Powder and Choice of Jonteel Beauty Creams Both for 69c Fungi-Rex and Rex-Salvine (for I Athlete’s Foot) 1..
