THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1930 PAGE SEVEN LOVE SHY - *Instaliment Tawenty-Three duties of a gasoline filling station with Janet's father. Janet is al- most in love with him and he is deeply. in love with her. Actually, he is the son of the president of that controls a big filling stations and has gone into this work as a step the business he is to manage some day. But he has promised his father he will not tell Janet this until she confesses To Janet's sur- prise 'when she enters the restau- rant with Westlake she sees Jim-* my and his sister, Mildred War- ren, whom she knows and likes, dining at an adjacent table. "} Do Like You Best" Some .instinct prompted Janet to nod her head and smile at them. She certainly was not conscious of doing it. She saw Jimmy get quickly to his feet and come toward her. He reached the table, hand outstretched, a smile on his mouth and a hurt look in his eyes, "Janet! It's mighty nice to see you, it seems like an age--" Janet put her hand in his auto- matically, "Hello, Jimmy," she said; then, "This is Mr. Westlake -- MrJ Warren." The two men shook hands heartily and Westlake said, "Perhaps your friends would take dinner with us, Miss Lane." "Pine," Jimmy exclaimed. "Mildred and T were having a quarrel anyway we need to be separated." "Then come to our table, it's a fittle larger I think," Westlake sug- gested, Jimmy went to get Mildred and re- turned with her, resenting Westlake and smiling at Mildred's cordial greet- ing to Janet, Mildred was wearing a cream lace dinner dress. figlitly swathed about fier hips, with one clever drapery in the skirt. Jade earrings and brace- lets and 3 square jade pin set with diamonds, were her jewelry, and on one land she wore a jade ring so large and heavy that it seemed to toad her long fingers down. Besides, such sophistication Janet felt very voung_ and small in her homemade dress and' the modest string of pear! beads. "1 know who you are," Mildred said, directly to Westlake.: "You're the Westlake lumber mills in Wisconsin. One of my best friends at school came from your part of the coun- try. She had a terrible crush on you--you didn't know it, of c8urse, J doubt if you'd know her--Selma In- galls. But one time when she was driving in the family car they passed you on horscback, riding in the for- est. She was immensely impressed, and + when they stopped to admire the scenery or something you rode by and she took a enapshot of you. She had it stuck in the mirror of her dressing table for months--called you her hero and so on." Westlake laughed pleasantly, "I'm sorry 1 didn't know about it. I know of the Ingalls family, of course. They count for something in our part of Wisconsin but I've never met any of them. Has the young lady forgatten me?" "1 Mope so" Mildred answered, *She's married now and has two children and from all accounts is very much in love with her husband." "Nid you really recognize Mr West- fake from that snapshot?" Janet asked curiously "Yes, | believe, now that I think of it, that Selma even had it en- farged~I must tell her about meet- ing you and ask her if she still has the picture--you'd make a stunning portrait, Mr. Westlake--] don't sup- pose you have time to sit for me--" Jimmy laughed. "Don't comniit yourself, Westlake, My sister paints portraits and she's a demon for work w' on she finds a subject she likes-- ask Tanet about it." "She's painting a picture of -- By Barbara Copyright by. Publis Webb Janet said, "but I don't mind the posing a bit. She always gives' me a lovely lunch first and a gorgeous tea afterward, so it isn't nearly so bad as it sounds" Every ome laughed at her. Then Westlake asked, "Is the picture of Miss Lane for sale, Miss Warren?" Jimmy grew a dull, miserable red, and Janet fell acutely sorry for him. Nor were they helped by Mildred's answer, "Oh, it might be. I doubt if you'd want this rticular one though. I'm doing her in an old Quaker costume with a quaint little nosegay in her hand and a braided rug at her feet--it's all very simple "But I would like that one," West- lake said eagerly, "that's just how I think of her----" he broke off sud- denly. "Maybe I'm being presump- tuous, I haven't known Miss Lane very long. . Sle might not want me to have a portrait of her--and I've Jove bought such a picture in my e Dinner arrived just them, to every one's relief. They gran very friend- ly over the meal, and Janet envied the case with which Mildred tossed the conversational ball here and there, making every one talk, keeping the tone to light chatter and nonsense. "Cigarettes outside," she decreed when dessert came, "and, Jimmy, be a darling and bribe the waiter to serve our coffee out where we can hear the water, won't you?" "Let me do it," Westlake said. "You three go on out and find a place to sit. I'll manage the waiter----" "You may need some help," Mil- dred said casually, "Run along with Janet, Jimmy, we'll be right with youn,' "Our Own Place" Obediently Janet and Jimmy went outside into the soft summer twilight. When they were well out of earshot of others Janet laid a timid hand on Jimmy's arm. "Jimmy ?" tentatively. "Yes, Janet--"" "1 don't want you to think I chase this place to come for dinner, I didn't even knqw where we were going until we were at the door, ['ve -- I've always thought it as being our own place--we had such a good time here that night---" "It's all right, Janet." Jimmy tried to speak cheerfully. "Westlake's a fine chap, I can see that." "But--but--" Janet could not go on. "Yes--but what, Janet--" "] do like you best, Jimmy." "Janet--darling~--" Jimmy caught her fingers. Janet pulled them free. "Don't," she warned him, "the others are com- ing." But Jimmy found time to ask, "Did you say you liked me best or you love" "J said like," Janet told him very firmly, repenting of her impulsiveness, "I'm making progress, I'm making progress--" and Jimmy turned a con- tented face to his sister afid her escort, Westlake could be a very entertain- ing host, and they talked until twi- lizht had changed to darkness and likhts twinkled all about them, He sat near Janet, and it was evident to all who watched him that each wmo- ment with her found him more deeply in love with her. Jimmy, clinging hard to the whsipered conversation of the twilight, tried to take comfort in its. memory, but the sight of this man, free to woo her, able to offer her openly all that he could not give her because of his promise to his father, made the evening 3 sore ordeal for him. When it was tine to leave West- lake shook hands with both brother and sister. "Phis has been mighty pleasant," he said. "It's too bad we can't ail go back together, but Miss Warren tells me she has her own car here--" "Why not drop into my studio when you get back?" Mildred asked. "lim- my and I are going there now, and Janet can show you where it is if you don't want to take the same rad we do. I'll stir up some drinks and show you some of my pictures." Westlake's face lighted up. "Say, that would be .great--shall we go, Miss Lane? 1 want to see that pour- trait of you that Miss Warren's do- ing." "No, not that one --~ not tonight, anyway," Mildred smiled. It isn't fin- ished--in- fact, it's in a terrible state right now. But I'll show you what- ever else you're interested in----" "Just as you say," said Westlake good humoredly, "But I'm going to have that picture some day, you know --we'll wapt if, won't we, Miss Lane---" sant Jimmy had a hard. time controlling his face and Janet blushed. Mildred waved a hand to them, calied, "See you later," and dragged Jimmy away. "Don't be tog of. a damfool," she advised" him. "Keep your heart in your chest, Jot on your coat- sleeve. Competition just spurs a man like Westlake on-----" "1 know," said Jimmy miserably, stariing the car, me wild to see him treat nosgessive way---all the wilder becaus. he's such a detent sort of chap." e ut it just makes]. er in that) Veno's is safe for every member of the family including the baby.

"Bosh!" said Mildred decidedly. "Janet's in love with you. Later at the studio, where West- lake was having a thoroughly good time, Jimmy felt he could bear the suspense no longer. Aided and abetted by Mildred, who felt sorry for his misery, he got Janet into the kitchen alone. older," me, right now," he told her. "For when?" Janet asked, too {as cinated to resist.

The sanitary district and Illinois took the position that high water on the Great Lakes has changed the aspect of the dispute and will make diversion beneficial to navi- gation by decreasing flood damage, The other Great Lakes States would have the sanitary district prohibited from diverting any wat- er from Lake Michigan through the sanitary canal after Dec, 31, 1928.
