I'm not of "You've got no reason to be." Suddenly Doris collapsed in a heap of helpless laughter. Rocky looked at her frankly. "What's so funny?" "What is this all about?" He sat down smiling ruefully. 'I'm sorry. I guess I'm a little excited- My point is simply that I haven't the face to go downstairs and tell my father and mother that I am not married U you. They're crazy about you " Doris' anger dripped away. "I am 'sorry. It's a rotten situation" "Then help me." "What can I do " "Well listen." He "walked to the window and looked out- (Josh, it's beautiful out tonight. I don't mind admitting that my family' wouldn't have been nearly so pleased if" he walked restlessly to the dressing tabic, stared at himself in the mirrir. "(1 d, I'm a fool." He turned at last to Doris with a smile that was slightly be seeching. "Couldn't you possibly go on pretending for a day or two longer?'' Doris was amazed. "But I'm an im poster." "Yes, but " "But they've got to find out sooner or later." He noded gloomily. "I suppose HO. The real Doris" He looked at her skeptically. "You still maintain that you don't know, Well maybe you don't- But I'll say this much :hat when Mother wroUi how much she "liked my my wife, I was never more surprised in my life," Doris stood with -averted head. "What will your wi!',. say when .she finds -out -about me?" Koeky looked at her sharply. "I.et'v not discuss her .right now. The point" . is, I'm duo to walk downstairs with you on my arm. It it they guessed the truth there .would be a most unholy bust-up. ' Doris shivered. "I can't go through with it." Rocky said. "Well then. I think it's the best plan to go on pretending," "It isn't very easy." "Well, we might as well be friends." Rocky smiled. His face so like that pictured friend -of hers lighted up. His white even teeth were a surprise. As he spoke he put his arm around Doris and lifted her to her feet. Anger shook her. She jerked away. "Is that your idea of being friends " He put his hand across his mouth, patted hi lips mockingly. They he pretended to cough respectfully. "My mistake." "I don't like" , "I know. I know." Doris glared at him. : "Y'ou know what?" "What you don't like." "What's that, then ' "My attitude:" "I wasn't going to say that at all. She caught a glimpse of herself in tha mirror. She hushed, her hair slightly disheveled, but that dress the dress did make her look nice. It steadied her to see herself in it. "I was going to say that I don't lik to go down to dinner with a man who has ,. ail wr n- r,a . , "You win. Its agreed, then, that we're not going to give each other : away." ... "Not tonight anyway." They went down into the dining !roVm. The candles on the tablt beamed joyously. Mr. and Mr? Dtt Val were full of a secret elation that showed in the burning1 of Oscar's dark eyes, and in the curve of Mrs. Du Val'k happy hps. "Ah now this is soiiiethmi aid He an Oscar l'u Val with satisfaction, slipped behind Doris' chair with air of gay rivalry. Koeky held out lua mother's chair gallantly. Tile women seated themselves.

"No, no,'' said Rocky loudly- "Don't vant to live in New York." Mis raisoi voice gave such an odd effect that both his parents stared at him in astonish ment. His face was red with the effort he was making to keep up his end of the conversation. "In fact, we ve just aliout settled to live in Larchinont. haven't we. Doris?" "I.archmont !" echoed Doris in as (mi- hment. "We saw such a dear little house there," said Koeky, "perched .on tho edge of the Sound. There were roses growing round the door " "I shoutd think the salt water woul ruin them," said Oscar vardincally. Doris laughed hysterically. The fish was brought in and handed round "Ah, said Koeky, "1 don't know when I ve eaten such fish." "The' last time y mi Were home, per baps?" suggested Oscar. "Ah .Doris- protect him." said Mrs Du Val- "His lather will spoil the beautiful homecoming with all his sar casm anoui now long it. has hcen silica we.hav,. seen Rocky."

"::-" Mrs. Du Val's voiei' niournecU "Doris is :t beautiful young girl." she looked a sly and secret tender ness at Doris. "So you have found a house a nice little house in. Larch mont. You did not tell me, Doris." "No. I did not tell you " Rocky spoke- "It's on tht. Sound. It has gardens at the back " "It sounds expensive," said ()scar u Val. "rour business is looking up. n'est-ce pas?" His eyes gleamed maliciously. "It is too expensive for us, of course." said Rocky. "It's just one of our dreams, isn't it Doris " "H'm" said Doris. i "It is such a pity," said Mrs. Du Val. ; . ... .. "What is such a pity?'' "That Doris should set her heart on this nice little house, and she shouldn't have it." Doris' eyes were large with embar rassment. "No, that isn't it at all." Mrs. Du Val's colorful voice sounded '"aP a ow?: ut course, Uscar. Now she is afraid that you aiP going io give ner tnat nice mtie hou-e. The little house they have picked out together.

Having diverted tile conversation Rocky tried to keep away from him self, and his supposed wfe. He talked about his trip, and badness conditions in France He told anecdotes and stories feverishly. Doris' cheeks wer, hot. Her eyes felt strained and anxious. Where could ail this folly end? Why had she promised to go on? Her hand shook as she reached for the wait. Surely the Du Vaks must so,, through this. Could they lc blind? "Oh oh Doris. Y'ou have spilled salt. That is had luck.'' wailed Mrs. Du Val. "Throw some over your left shoulder. That will ward oh" the bad luck." Doris shrugged. Oscar Du Val said. "Her had luck is nver since her husband has re turned. Isn't that so, Doris?" Doris was hating Rocky so violently at that moment that she found it diffi cult, to answer. Why couldn't lie have nil reduced his wife to his family him self instead of letting them meet in the Biltmoro in that silly way?

We won't keep him long." Though half way up the stairs Doris turned in horror. "What did you say?" Mrs. Du Val smiled. "Rocky will soon come to bed." "But not but not in my room " A shadow crossed Mrs. DuVal's face. "Ah? You have still the small quarrel you and Rocky? These things blow over. I will send the dear bov up to vou very soon."

PUELICHER American Bankers Association BANKING in its long career has been cornnnP.Pfl tn with.ctantl manv seri- corn p; s'.io'd; ?. but it ran into the most perplexing in- k,?v t2r.?!ement of its whole history since the general break- ilj-.vii of values in 1923.

I'h'i'-' !c toi'.i which many had v. irked viars to eiminate. which it ",vas I'cari'ally recoahized would ng aravate any diiiicult days which might arise One of the worst, of these was due to politi'ail rei;ulation which char tered, many banks that should never liavo lieen chartered. That , there have been incompetence nml dishonesty in hanking is admitted. That the instances that did occur were used grossly to increase fear in the public mind, we affirm." We shall con tinue to strive for higher attainments in our profession md strive for laws that .. require competence and ability in management. That we cannot leg islate honesty and unselfishness Into either a banker or a borrower must he conceded,, hut dishonesty, wherever found, should bo punished. It is as true in banking as elsewhere that no matter how. good the law, dishonest and -incompetent men can make it in effective. Good laws are essential. We must strive for ever better ones, but their enforcement will come only as the public recognizes that it is a mat ter not of laws or codes alone but of the men who administer them. The Public's Part Our people must bo brought to real ize that the welfare of our country de pends upon its banking, system, that the strength of tho hanking system de pends upon tho public's faith and understanding and the vast majority of banks, because, of faithful service ren dered, even through the whole of this general breakdown, had the right to expect tho trust and confidence of the people. , In every great catastrophe, no mat ter what its nature, no matter what Its cause, someone nuis', be crucified, The banker was this time selected.. In the late yu s, political agitation started a tirade against the railroads. Some rail roads may have done reprehensible things, but the agitation became so general and so violent as almost to destroy one of the fundamental factors in the progress of a country. Today the same thing has been done to the hanker. In spite of all that has hap pened, the fact remains that even most of the banks which failed are paying out infinitely better than are invest ments in almost anything else. Dentisit's Daughter: "Well, dear, have you asked father for my hand yet?" . ;:iV :; ,:' . V: Shy Suitor: "No. ' Every time I step into his office I lose courage. Today I allowed him to pull another tooth-";. t Mr. Brown: "I've had a worrying tinie with th insurance people. They ask such awkward questions: They even wanted to know the state of my mind." Mrs- Brown: "How absured! I sup pose you left it blank" Ship's Officer: "Oh. there goes eight tells ; excuse me. it's my watch below." The Lady: "My! Fancy your watch striking as loud as that!" "Say. Sandy, why did you have only one of the twins photographed?" "They: looked so much alike it was no use to spend the money getting pictures of both."
