First Qffieer ` Jimmy Kennedy offers to give her a lift to the city; but she says she al- ready has a date. To his discern, ' enure she walks over to a limous- ine, and Is driven by a' chauffeur to the. Jethrup' mansion, where her mother is housekeeper. There she meets her mother and Philip Jethrup, who is engaged to a so- ciety girl. Philip admits to Sally that he is not happy. • "It was a very nice negligee, dear. Though I must admit that it's a bit too much on the modern "aide for me.” . • "Roger will leve„ yon, . in it." 'Sally!" "Mother, stop pretending. You know perfectly well, that Roger is imply crazy about you. He's try- ing to get up enough courage to propose." "I am sure he is not that stupid, 'dear. Uncle Roger, as you call lhim, knows perfectly well that we. can never be anything more therm+ good. friends:" A little of the buoyancy went out of the girl. "But why not? Mother, I've told you over and ov- er again that you're - sacrificing yourself • in vain. Grandfather Jethrup would' never let Philip marry me. Not in a million years:" "The decision will be Philip's. my dear. And' I am confident that be will some day realize that he loves you. I will not make matters difficult by giving him a chauffeur for a father-in-law:" "Mother, did you ever stop to think that I might not he in love with Philip?" Mrs. • Alliston smiled' serenely. "It isn't always a question of love„ .Saliyi, but of intelligence. Philip- its hilipins right for you, therefore you 'must marry Philip " And stiII smiling serenely, 'Mrs. Alliston 'left to inform the Jethrups that she was now ready to have her party 'begin, rn It was a good -party despite the little fact that her mother contrivw ed to throw. Sa11y and Philip to- gether Whenever an opportunity presented itself. Never had food been tastier, never ,had. company been Beyer, and4never, never dead, Grandfather Jethrup told so m:gny interesting stories about the ' od old days." Letting herself into the apart- ment overlooking 'Ceettral Park,,. later, Sally grudgingly adanitted to. herself, that she really liked the ofd codger. When she was a child living with her mother at the Seth- rups', she had always been some- what afraid of Grandtatiher Jeth- rup. Se had a way. of 'barking at her that especially dist'urbed her that afternoon he'd overheard-Phil- ip verheardPhil- ip telling her about the house. he intended to buy for her some day! But he'd mellowed somewhat since then—or was it simply because she had agreed with shim, let him have his own way? She shrugged her shoulders as redheaded Helen Stafford came out of ,the kitchen. Why go into details? Why try to analyze a simple thing like that? She was fond of Grandfather Jeth- rup and that was that. The bed sagged as Helen added her weight to it. "Do you think I ought to make a play for Philip?" "Huh? What happened to your high sense of honor?" "In• a way, Mother is right. What is there ahead but years of working and doing without?" "Mr. Perkin would collapse wit;i horror if • he 'heard you hinting that ;ilomet Airlines doesn't pay enough," "Oh, I don't mean the salary is too little. I mean doing without luxuries.. I'd like to wear a mink coat and have a,ciiauffeur the way other girls do, And Philip could give me "those things, and many more,. beside." "I think you really better go to sleep, Sally." Helen was good - 'humored no longer. "You've had a hard day. You're too tired, to wrestle, with' problems like that." "What, is this conversation em- barrassing you?" . Helen hesitated after she had switched, off the. light. Thea sur- prisingly, she said., "Yes, Sally, it is. I like to believe that all my friends are decent." "Silly Helen, I was just talking to hear myself talk." "That's better." ' Restless, Sally rolledover onto Your Business Directory LEGAL A. W. SILLERY Barrister, Solicitor, Etc.

Wasn't she pretty' enough 'to attract' Jimmy Kennedy? Mike, of course, spotted, them the instant they made their ap- pearance, on the brick terrace of the cafeteria. He sprang up and bowed very deeply, drat to Mian Whoops, then to Sally. 'His eyes lingered, on her ' as he helped them into seats. "I know, Mike, blue is my best color. But . I wouldn't have worn this dress. if I hadn't been blow - beaten into doing so." "Miss Whoops, 'the lunch is on me." "Lunch?" Miss Whoops rose from the table with a twinkle light- ing up her face mischievously. "But I've already eaten, Captain Wthite, and I have considerable shopping to do. Please excuse me, Sally, I'll .see you again_" Before the girl could stop mar- velling, the old nurse was trip- ping 'briskly away. "Mike, you put her up to it!" He Laughed, waving his hand in a gesture of denial. "I did. no such thing, Sally. I was surprised when I saw you." "'She thinks we ought to fall in love with one another. You know, I'm slowly but surely getting an- gry. Mother, and now Miss Whoops. What's ''wrong with be- ing a bachelor girl?"Y "Nothing," He picked up the menu and handed it to her as a parakett sounded raucously. "I suppose you know, though, that Jimmy intends to do something about,* correcting your present state? He bragged that he, was taking you .out this evening." "That was Helen. Sometimes people an become a pain in the neck, Mike." • "Including the skipper?" She studied him and smiled. "Of course not. You're one of my fav= orite people. Quiet. gentle, consid- erate, courteous. I'll pay for my own lunch, though. There's a lim- it to courtesy." • "Yet who can tell? Perhaps un- der this exterior is a man you don't know. A passionate, brutal man who's biding his time. May- be I'm smart enough to know that you're not ready for romance—yet. Maybe this. big brotlr business is ju,a clever act." 'rd'immy should take lessons from you,' then. He might do bet- ter, in the long run." "I never knew that Jimmy wasn't doing all right." "You heard him yesterday," said with satisfraction., "So he wins this evening." "Does he?" she asked, all chief. "You mean you're going to him down again?" "You bet I am. If there's thing I dislike, it's wolves." A little declaration which would have surprised Jimmy Kennedy very much had, he heard it, be- cause that evening dislike very definitely was not in the kiss she gave him at the door. . Promptly at six -thirty, as he had told the proprietor of the Happy Evening Dine and Dance establish- ment, he and Sally appeared to claim their table near the dance floor. It wasa rather tiny table, which suited him just fine. He took he hand and gave it a squeeze after they'd been seated, all softness now, all suavity. 4'm sorry, Sally." Her eyes widened in ment. "Sorry?" "I really had no business kiss- ing you like that. I don't know what "got into me. The old urge to "conquer, I guess. You made• me a little sore yesterday." "It served you right. You had, no business betting Mike that you Could• date me." "Ob, that?" Jimmy's gesture was of the perish -the thought ;vari- ety. "I meant your attitude 'mane me sore. After all, I'm: not as heartless as' you made me out to be. 'Sure I date girls. Why not? That's natural. Why snap at me for being natural?"

The dough for roll-out cookies should be thoroughly chilled in the refrigerator for an hour to prevent spreading in the pan. 2. DO not grease an aluminum cookie sheet for cookies. Grease a tin pan lightly with salt -free fat. 3. Tough cookies are due to too , much flour and too much rollin,g. 4. To keep some dookie dough for making fresh ones several days later,, roll it in cellophane or heavy wax paper, seal in the ends and store in the refrigera- tor. 5. Cookies stick to the pan because of :excessive high temperatures and pans which • may be abso- lutely clean. Then, too, cookies should be transferred with a spatula to a cake rack as soon as taken from oven.
