SYNOPSIS in which the Six Arts Ball was being
Ellen Chur,
ch VI years old, finds
herself alone in the world with lier
artist mother's last warning ringing
in her ears, to "love lightly," Of the
world she knew little. All her life
she had lived alone with her mother
in an old brown house in a small rur-
al community. All her •life, first as a
new baby, then a bubbling child, then
a charming young girl . . she had
posed for her talented mother who
sold her magizine cover painting
through an art agent in the city .
Mrs. Church's broken life . . . the
unfaithful husband, his disappearance
and after seventeen years of sil-
ence announcement of his death was
at last disclosed to Ellen. The news
of the husband's death killed Mrs.
Church. . . Ellen, alone, turned to
the only contact he knew, the art
agent in New York. Posing, years of
posing, was her only •talent so she
was introduced to two leading ar-
tists, Dick Alven and Sandy Macin-
tosh. Both used her as a model and
both fell in love with her . . but
Ellen, trying to follow the warped
•philosophy of her mother to "love
lightly" resists the thought of love.

had met in the hallway, with every-
day coats incongruously covering
bizarre costumes, they had been al-
most shy with each other -almost
afraid to look each other in the eye,

back in separate coliers. But the
young man's hand, groping Out across

drew her close.
"I suppose you think I'm crazy,"
he said.
"Quite crazy," Ellen told him,
gently.
"You :we," the boy's voice was
carefully held in leash, "you see I'd
been watching you all evening, as
you danced with ali the fat old hin-
nies in the world. Cold sober, you
were -in the whole roomful the only
one that was cold sober! Listening
to their kidding, and kidding them
back, but only with half of you on the
job. With the other half as far awey
as if you were in a garden."
Ellen interrupted, and there wae
sob in her voice. What incredible
.chance had prompted hint to make
that comparison?
"Not that!" she said. "Not a gar-
den . • ."
"And I thought," the boy went on
heedless of her interruption. -I've got
to get her away from it all. Because

sort of desperation, "but I'd take a

As he spoke his .head was bent low
over the hands that he was holding,
and his lips were pressed hotly
against the palms of those hands.
And Ellen, looking down through
the darkness at his head, bent above
her hands - hearing, as through a
dream, the whir of the car's motor -
was feeling the same madness, too.
Why, the boy was right, He was
right! it was love.
But, in the graying darkness, Ellen
was going back to her mother.

not be used by the body, sugar ac-
cumulates in the blood and, later, is
present in the urine. The amount of
sugar passed in the -urine varies from
a mere trace to as much as a pound
or two a day.
Diabetes occurs at all ages. A num-
ber of young children develop the
disease, but the majority of cases oc-
cur after forty. Diabetes is found
chiefly among those who, after reach-
ing middle life, overeat and, as a re-
sult, become overweight. Diabetes is
the penalty these individuals pay for
their overindulgence in food.
Diet was the only treatment avail-
able before the discovery of insulin.
Diet is just as important as it ever
was, but, in many cases, diet alone
is not a satisfactory treatment. In
such cases, insulin allows the diabet-
ic to cat and use sufficient starches
and sugars to maintain health and
strength.
It is most important that the Dia-
betic give careful attention to his gen-
eral health. He should be scrupul-
ously clean about his body. Any ab-
normal condition, such as infected
teeth or other focal infection, should
receive proper treatment without de-
lay. Exercise is essential as exercise
helps to use up the sugars and star-
•
ches.
Success in treatment rests 'with the
patient. He requires regular medical
supervisi'on to insturct and guide him•
along the way, but his fate lies in
his own hands. The diabetic who uses
insulin and diet properly may hope -
for years of health and happiness.
To avoid diabetes, those of middle
age or later years should keep their -
weight at or a little below thea ver -
age. This is another way of saying -
that diabetes does not usually occur
among those who maintain a normal
weight by combining moderation ire
eating with reasonable exercise.
