STORY Adapted from the Metro.Goldwyn-Mayer Picture by BEATIUCE FABER SYNOPSIS Tracy Lord, young leader of Philadelphia's exclusive Main. Line society, has ,little understanding, of, human frailty- She is marry- ing George Kittredge, a'self-made coal operator but the day before the wedding, her ex-husband, Dexter Haven, appears with two people, Liz lmbrie a photographer and Mike Connor from "Spy" magazine, In exchange for not printing the story of Tracy's father's romantic intrigue, Pub- Nsher Kidd is to get an "exclus- ive" on Tracy's wedding. Then Tracy, confused by her feelings for both George and Dexter, goes on a champagne party with Mike which ends at the swimming pool. Next day it appears that she and Mike have become romantically in- volved. She is horrified at her own weakness. Then a few min- utes before the wedding she re- ceives a note from George saying their marriage is all off, She is reading it aloud when he appears. CHAPTER SIX George hurried into the roor, "Tracy! In front of all these peo- ple!" eo-plel" She looked at him distantly. So this was George. How funny. Why, he was the sort of person she used to be, -without under- standing, with no sympathyat all for human weakness. And just n while before how different Dexter had seemed, He could realize what might happen to a person, riding high on champagne under the light of a full moon. She 'Said tiredly, "It's only a letter from a friend. They're my friends, too." Her voice gather- ed strength, "Yes, George, fox richer, for poorer, for better, for worse, in sickness and in health and—and thank you very much for your good wishes at this time." "But, Tracy," he cried outrag- ed, "on the very eve of your wedding . . an affair with an- other man , , , don't you see? .." Mike stepped forward.

It was sweet of himto try to get her out of this. And then she saw them all Looking at Mike. And, .yes, they 'believed him. Even George. So it was true. The eye- ning had been innocent as could be after all. Her smile was wan. "Well, George, it looks as if that wasn't me at all. Seems it was another girl: a Miss Pommery, 1026." George is Annoyed Hesitatingly •he took her• hand. .you"Will promise n e never to torch the stuff again.'?"' She started to answer. Then the stopped and finally spoke.

"I'm i of going to quibble, Tracy.. All e evidence was there." But at this moment there n s an interruption. The note fr m Publisher Kidd had arrived. D - ter opened it and then let out a loud hooray. He grasped Mik 's hand. "We win. We win." d d Th yo 1 th VA 0 �x e It seemed that the lurid biog rophy of Kidd which Mike ha dictated to Dexter last night ha reached the publisher this morn ing. And with the threat of its being published by .a rival maga zine I.idd was making all the concessions. There would be no story in "Spy" of Seth Lord's in- trigue; there would be no story on Tracy's wedding. And neither. Liz nor Mike .would be fired. But now George seemed a bit nervous, "Come on, Tracy, it must be late, Let's Iet bygones be bygones, What do you say?" "Goodbye, George!" She smiled end nodded. "Yes, and goodbye, George." He started to protest but she propelled him toward the door. "You're too good for nne, George. You're a hundred times too good. And I'd make you most unhappy. That is, I'd do my best" There was an ugly sneer on George's face as he stood at .the door and deliberately surveyed her from head to foot. "All right, Possibly it's just as well" Ile • glared at Dexter. "I've got a feel- ing you've had more to do with this than anyone," Dexter nodded. "Well, perhaps. But you were a great help." He was gone and, suddenly Tracy clutched her head. "Oh, my sainted Aunt. All those people in there for the wedding. What in the world air I to do?" At this, Mike stepped forward: "Tracy," he said feverishly, "I got you into this, P11 get you out. Will you marry me, Tracy?" Her eyes were sort of glazed over. "No, Mike . . re -no. You and Liz belong together, I think that .someday soon, you'll find that out," A Little Hitch Dexter tools this moment to let out a long, lazy laugh, "It'll be all right, Tracy. You've been got out. of jams before. Someone will help you out ofthis one , too." "Been got, out of then, did you say?" She was wild with anger. "That's what I said, Tracy. Don't worry. 'You always are." • Her another carne bustling in. "Tracy, we met George in the hall. It's all right, dear. Your father will ' make a very simple announcement." ' Seth. Lord was right behind his wife. ."Is there anything special you want me to say?" Dexter grinned. "You see, never, a blow that won't be softened." Well," Tracy all but yelled,' el won't be got out of anything more. I'll say it, whatever it is." She tore over to the living -room, eters and pulled them open. All the guests were seated and the orchestra was playing "Oh, Prom- ise Me." ' "Stop that music, will you?" she called. Then she node ded at everyone, "Bello. Good morning, There's — uh-there's been a little hitch. I've made a terrible fool of myself which isn't unusual at all. And . and' ..." She'whispeted. franti- cally to Dexter, "What next? khat next?" Ile whispered some- ing,bao1 and automatically she peatedi it, "Two years ago you ere invited to p wedding in this use which I did you out of, by oping to Maryland." The words were out and now, as she looked at Dexter her'.heaet began to leap. She loved him eh, how she loved him,' as high, wide and handsome as the seven seas, He whispered to her again and, word for word, she repeated after him to the guests, "It was very bird manner , , but I hope to make it up to you . . . by going beautifully through with it now as originally and most beau- tifully eau-ofuIly planned." Thele was a conference going on. Mike was going to be best man and mother was loaning her marriage ring to them for the ceremony. The license was okay because Dexter still- had the one left over front their, last scheduled wedding. "So, Dexter said into Tracy's ear, "if you'll jut keep your" seats a moment ...." "So," she repeated dutifully, "if you'll just keep yodr seats a moment..." "You're My Redhead" "That's all," Dexter told her, then closed the doers, 'drew her , into his arms and kissed her, pink, Luminous face. She said; tremulously, "0h, Dexter darling, are you sure?" He tipped her face up and Iook- ed ather again with a floodlig'ht of warmth in . his eyes. "Not in the. least. But I'll risk it. Will you, my' sweet?" "You bet!" She blushed. , My goodness, she sounded positively bold. "And you didn't do it just ' to soften the blow?" "No, Tracy," "Nor to save my face?" He cupped it between his hands. "It's a nice, little face." "I promise to be wonderful," she breathed, "I promise." "Be whatever you • like." His voice was husky. "You're my red- head. All set?" She sang out, "All set." He and . Mike left for the other door and she said, "My hat. Where's' my hat?" Liz handed it to her and she tied the bow of the big pink cartwheel under her chin. Seth Lord spoke to his wife. "You'd better tell Mr. Dutton to start the music." Then he was alone with his daughter. He took ` her arm affectionately, "Tracy, darling - ." I-Ier eyes were wet as she turn - ea' to him, "I love you, father." Now ,his own eyes moistened. From a far land his little girl Tracy had come back to him, "And I love you." She threw back her head and laughed.' joyously. "Oh, never in my -Life have I been so full of love." "It's For Keeps!" Seth held her arni close. "Let's get it there. The music's start- ing," "How do I look?" He hesitated, Then, slowly, he said, "Like a queen. Like a God- dess." "But, father," she cried exult- antly, "do yen know how I feel?" "How?" "Like a human. Like a human being." 'Tow the music swelled and with a light, almost dancing tread, Tracy approached the altar where Dexter waited for it. It was wonderful. It was Heavenly. She and Dexter were going to be mar- ried again. And this time it was for keeps! 'PHE END A Startling Welcome ..

Modern Kitchen Aids Housewife Old -Fashioned Arrangement le Unnecessary and A Drag ?4any homes; built as recently as t •. years ago, now have kit- chens which have been outmoded by progressive building practices, An old-fashioned kitchen is a drag on the housewife—a burden that takesa seavy toll in fatigue and energy. It seriously 'depreciates' PY•orterty, while a modern kitchen. generally aide dollars to rental re- turns and resale values.

The baric .elements of planning an efficieet kitchen are the same no matter how large cr small it may be. These elements are the three "centres" which every kit - ellen ;Aimed have. They are: BASIC ELEMENTS The storage and preservation centre. The ."preparation and cleaning centre. The cooking and eerving centre. Every builder and carpenter will find scientific kitchen -planning easy because of his years of know, ledge. The preservation and stor- age centre, with the refrigerator, should be near the dining room entrance,. and the preparation and gleaning centre should he conveni- ently located, between both the re- frigerator and the range. With such an arrangement, the prepar- ation .and serving of every meal progresses easily, with a minimum of steps, energy and time.

SHIN COLORS INFLUENCE ACTIONS Color has been found to be more than skin deep, the speaker noted. Environment influences life, habits and finally general characteristics, Hence, those at the equator where extremes in seasons need not be contended with, live an easy life, with food and shelter and cloth- ing easily acquired. There is no need to be markedly creative. With many free hours these people torn to things artistic, colors, music, ohteacteristies associated with the dark colored races. On the other hand, gretips moving farther north, With no need to resist the heavy rays of the sun, have lighter skins, fad must struggle for daily needs, 'until, in the north,the blonde races are found prectically and resource- ful. esourceful. Mrs, Grant a described various • types of personalities on the basis of physical characteristics. She mentioned the mental type -who prefers to fight with ideas and words rather than with fists the driving type, who is the football hem in school and the engineer or business man in adult life; the type who becomes an executive because he has learned to direct others;. the conservative type; and the man -of -action type who joins the air force or seeks other forms of aihentut'e.
