CHAPTER III The Needhams were at dinner in their palatial new home. "What's the matter with you, John?" Mrs. Needhani asked sharp- ly. "Not eating your steak?" "Aw, I don't know, Ma," Mr, Needham answered pathetically, "It's so big, I reckon we'll never be able to find each other. And that fellow that you call my valet. I don't know what to do with him. Why, he ain't even a good poker player, and when I asked him to go to a movie with me, he nearly choked." "John Needham!" Pa quailed be- fore the withering glance of his wife. "You're going right back to the ranch. You haven't any sense, and you'll never learn!" } "Goody!" Celia leaped up, ran to her father, and threw her arms about him. "You and me!" she carolled. "I hatd.it here. I'll go with you. I'm pining to see Dick, and. . ." Sit down, Celia." Mrs. Need- ham's voice was commanding. "You are going to boarding school this 'year. And there's to be no argu- ment." Celia turned rebellious eyes to- ward Gay. "What do you think, Gay?" Gay hesitated. Loving Rodney, she knew how Celia: felt about Dick Myers. But if she were to marry Rodney, the whole Needham family must be made over to fit the Sinclair pattern. Too Young For Responsibilities "Mother is right," she finally said. "The! school will do you good, and you're too young to take on the responsibilities of a rancher's wife." "All right," Celia answered sul- lenly. "But if Dick marries someone I'll do!" * *® * The next day, Pa Needham was packed off to the ranch and, a few days later, Celia: left for Virginia, where the boarding school was locat- ed. 3 Mrs. "Needham sighed with relief as she turned to Gay after they had waved goodby to the morose Celia. "Well, that's over! 1 hope they teach her something. If she were only more like you, Gay. The way you're co-operating. . . Van Gordon says you are an apt pupil and, with the exception of Jock, the most in- terested one he has ever sponsored," "Jock!" It was Gay's turn to be surpriged. She had been so busy with her own' affairs that she had not paid much attention to her brother and what he was doing, "Yes; Van Gordon has put him under Irene's wing, and I heard Irene tell him the other day that he seem- ed born to the purple. I think, just between iy she likes him pretty well." : LOOK, MOTHER, THAT COAL IS COLOURED "BLUE gi else; PI--I'll-- I don't know what" +» blue coal f Coloured *BLUE as your assurance of quality, 'blue coal' bums evenly, without . waste, filling you home: with comfort , . . giving you the greatest heating satisfaction atthe least cost throughout the season.

"That:boy Jock," he raged, "is getting himself into a mess. There's a certain Broadway actress, Esme Vaille--twice his -age--she's playing him for a fool! Until you folks are entrenched; as it .were, we can't af- ford notoriety. And if Jock tells this woman too much, she's apt to re- sort to blackmail. Do you under- stand 7" 2 Wanted: A Little Fun "Ye-es," Mrs. Needham said in a feeble voice, "Now, see here, Mrs. Needham." Van Gordon's voice was harsh, "Jock is genial and easy-going--but weak. You might just as well admit it, and start a program to keep him out of mischief. I've talked to Irene Strom- ley, and she has promised to help." That evening, Mrs, Needham took Jock to task at .the dinner table. listener. "Huh," Jock blustered, , "I gotta right to a little fun. If you're so darned afraid that debut won't come off, why don't' you rush it?" "I'm inclined to "think Jock is right," Irene put in. "Why not set the - date for the debut early next month? Meanwhile, bad boy, you're going to pay more attention to littl Irene and less to that actress per son." "That so?' Jock grinned. "Well, suppose we go for a drive and talk it over? He and Irene sauntered out to- gether, Mrs, Needham smiled triumphant- ly. "That's the way out of our dif- ficulty with Jock. . . Gay, why are you so quiet this evening?" . (To Be Continued.) Brazilian Women Enjoy Athletics They Are Going In Strong For Tennis and: Swimming Brazilian women are beginning to make names for themselves in two athletic fields, tennis and swimming, It is not unusual, now, to sce the ten- nis courts and the swimming pools of local clubs and beaches jammed with young women of all sizes and ages. Instead of having tutors in the intri- cacies of French verbs and Italian verse, they have lessons in tennis and swimming under -competent teachers contracted abroad. Here the modern- ity of Brazil shows itself. Many of them swerve into the driveways of their clubs ad though Brazilian women had always driven automobiles,' dash into their dressing rooms, emerge with can play tennis in, dash after balls and serve as though tennis were a tra- dition of the race and not something extremely recent in the life of the Brazilian gir, And though it is a new day, Bra- zilian fathers, brothers, husbands and sweethearts still wag their heads and wonder where this world is going to. One has the feeling that the tenden- 'cies and trends of the modern Brazil fan girl have the blessing of her elder kinfolk. Perhaps they wish that they kad been able to live their younger lives in this modern age. Eyes Of Dead Men Help The Living A year ago Professor V. P. Fila- tor, of Odessa, said he could cure the dreaded form of blindness known as "wall eye." . ' "Wall eye" may be caused by d's- ease or injury, and takes place when the cornea, or horny cover of the eye- ball is clouded. Professor Filator, by replacing the defective corneas of the living with the healthy corneas of the dead, has actually restored sight to 400 people during the last year. 3 10c a Day buys a new guaranteed .

LET 4 h i i: Cold S' 'der Lonely Hearts Disappointment came this week to erstwhile hopeful members in 86 states and foreign lands with the word that their Princeton, (N, J.) Lonely Hearts Club was extinct. - ~The: club's founders, two Prince. ton University sophomores, decided to call the whole thing off because Vassar girls "railed" at the idea and "tried tao make Princeton the butt of a huge joke." - Are You Lonely Too? The club got its first start at Vas. sar, too. Princetonians F. M. Bran din of Rockville Centre, N.Y., and William: A. Gilroy -of Elizabeth, N.J., put the following advertise ment in a student publication at the women's college a few weeks ago: "Hundreds of men are lonely in Pririceton. Are you tonely, too? Find your post-box lover by writing the Lonely Hearts Club, 121 Little Hall, Princeton, N.J. No fee, every- thing confidentirs." Vassarities seemed interested then. The idea grew by leaps and bounds, Smith and Wellesley. girls indignant. ly inquired why the club 'bothered with Vassar in the first place. Col- legians at Harvard, Notre Dame and other men's universities asked how to start member clubs. ~ Letters Poured In Letters poured "in from aged widows, bachelors, stenographers, models--some from Paris, London, Havana. - Suddenly the Vassar publication gave the club-the cold shoulder. It said in an "expose:" #Yale men suffer from loneliness; but a Princeton man is surely above such weak and paltry emotions." The club, angered at" a Vassar charge that the superior intelligences of jue girls wefe enjoying themselves at the expense of gullible New Jer-\ seyans, closed: its books. The lonely-hearted said: Women Humbled Themselves "Princeton men are still able to take care of their lonely hearts with- out resort to the Vassar desolates." And then added modestly: "In the past few weeks American womanhood has literally prostrated itself at the gates of Princeton." Woman Stops Train To Retrieve Teeth Rritish Railways Give Instances of Why People Use Cord: Signal Every year on 'the British railways about 200 people stop trains by pull ing the communication cords. Com- mon offenders are people.who have boarded the wrong train or those who have been carried past the station at which they think the train should stop. i An official recalled the case of an elderly woman who was. leaning out of a compartment window calling good-bye to her friends on the plat- form. Ag the train moved off she leaned out further and further, call ing "Good-bye". $ "Just For Fun" She was shouting her loudest and last good-bye when her false teeth dropped out, and she immediately pulled the communication cord in or- der to retrieve them. Instances have occurred where foreign. passengers pulled the cord thinking they were ringing for the attendant. "We sometimes have cases of peo- ple pulling the communication cord 'Just for fun'," added the official, "and 'when summoned they are quite ready. "to pay £6 ($24.95), though fn my opin: fon it is a dear £5 worth of fun." , Other cases include: A Welshman who pulled-the cord three times to protest against the lighting of the compartment; a man who stopped a train as a protest against a young woman who insisted on smoking in a non-smoking compartment:and a wom- an travelling in the Peak district who thought the' train was going too fast.
