After the program, games and old fashioned dances were enjoyed until a late hom J. O.

As a tombstone, deliberately raised, Hope refused pointblank to "come out."- She laughed at the idea raucously. She come out! It was too idiotic! She. who had been a horrified whisper In. estcli ester; in ilarmonth, and in Italy, protested triumphantly against Mama's, man gled pride, and depicted that society Should., never. know her oflicially. ; Aguin -Hope fojintl two steady and reliable roins in guiding tho balky horse of her caroer, Rusty Crandall. now out of college himself, and eon ,,fined. from ten to, four in the offices of. his father's hiise chocolate firm Hope was sent out' to a wiiero Angel had been given him as his .personal secretary. (She suc ceeded In running. Rusty's office so that ho might go out and enjoy him self; Angel know much more about the buslnoss than Rusty evor would.) And Judy Hunt, who had made a debut (and an exceedingly successful one, her parents' finan cial reversos notwithstanding) while Hope was abroad that fall. : Judy and Rusty. That was all that Hope's life held. With a generous sprinkling of Goody who wanted dooporntely to be kind In spite ot the fact that Charlie vigorously dis approved of Hope. Hopo wondered at Goody. Marriage seemed to have humanized her; love seemed to have softened her. it was her turn, now. to pity Hope. The 'tables were iturnetl. But sho dld her pitying with miagnMcont kindness and ease, ilopo marveled and turned to her sister with mute appeal, half hat ing herself for doing It, and ncvor really confiding, for somehow she knew that with all Goody's new but very natural sweetness, she Swould toll anything and everything to Charlie. And as a result Charlie would grunt oftener at the sight ot his wHe's young sister, and criticise her the more for her eternal refuge in drink. In the spring, Hope took a four weeks' trip with Judy to Bermuda, accepting without protest Papa s In- slstonbe upon a chaperon. This chaperon, one Mrs. Manly, was n forlorn remnant of the Ross family on Mama's side. A woman who bad been too true to be good, and who. as a widow of a war hero, was starv ing with magnificent grace. The trip to Bermuda, however. ' was cut short by a week because Sassy was taken ill. Back to New York rushed Hope, magnificently tanned and far more rested and steadied than she dreamed. And In her trail came Mrs. Manly, slight ly brokenhearted at having abruptly to end ber first vacation In seven years, and Judy who bad quite tired of Bermuda anyway. Sassy, given personal treatment and home visits by the best cat doc tor In New York, recovered shortly and Hope breathed with a relief that brought a puff of disgust from Mnma Rosb, The spring dragged Interminably j LA GEANDE EVENING OBSERVER, LA GRANDE, ORE. lock gave an Interesting talk on the life of Washington, emphaolzlng th6 religious side of his nature.

They -returned while Hops went uorsquuck riding ench morning, generally. In the com pany o( Husty Crandall, More and Hiore frequently Hope drove over to her sIstor'B house In the nrternoonB, stuylns ouly when Goody was alone, and finding a strange solace in long talks with the; puiszltng stranger who had grown up with her. Often, Hope, would sit for. long .spaces In silence, while Goody checked bills or made out veeltly tnenus, or wrote Invitations to dinner parties. Lis tening to Goody's quiet, low-voiced .confidences with . only . occasional monosyllables tor an answer. ! tit-, was -a strange friendship be tween Hie ulsters who had grown up despising each .other. ..At sight of Hope, .Goody would set about . mix ing a highball (which she never drank herself) and upon each visit Hope would drag a new piece of linen, a boudoir clock, .an etching, or a .fresh supply . of iilinuor and would frown upon Goody If she dared express gratitude, yes, a strange companionship and .under standing. ..especially Hvhen Goody WRan bit frightened ot her husband's criticism of Hope, and especially Lcbovo all, when Bhe longed to break faith vith the Rosses Sr.. and: tell ihs thinning, i mousy-eyed child of all that happened to Dickey In the billiard room. ,13ut nn exaggerated honor, soaled Goody's lipo, and an dude ranch In Wyoming. exaggerated pride kept Hope's closed, so tho two .talked of every thing but a hapless marriage In tho face of a blissful marriage , Often, too, when she was in town shopping. iHopo would drop over to tho tiny apartment In (Iramercy Park that was Mrs. Manly's home. There she would listen to past sor rows, untarnished joys and trl- umplis, unforgotten henrtaclios and i grief. Those hours with Mrs. Manly seeped Into Hope's heart. A life spread-out before her -a story lived nnd told her for the first tlme a human being capable of sitting back and taking the rough deals when life had held eo much, ilt drew Hope strangely close, -particularly when, without a gainful word -.between them, Mi'B. Manly understood Hope's listless s 1 1 e n c o, and uudorstood about Sassy. ... What did Rusty and Judy -mean? Only loyalty. Priceless. gorgeouB, reliable loyalty. Tbolr lives, their .Interests, their words were no longer Hope's. But Goody and Mrs. Manly brought- her -a peculiar ibalance. Goody signified the happiness ot reserved and conventional young womanhood tasting of life nnd of living, forging a new world from old hopes, brewing new -wino in old hot ties;,' and Mrs. Manly stood for a life graciously lived, for an age that had .passed and Hint Boemed Incom prehensible bat pathetically Doautl fill to Hope. ' When Bummer came Hope re belled. With one single, brittle word sbe rebelled. Not for fame, fortune, family or friendship would she go to Bar Harbor and face months of boredom with the same Old crown of cottonmonlha and lordly nit-wits. Mrs. Manly came to her rescue. And Papa Ross, finding his temper a matter of amusement instead of fear, changed his policy to one of largo understanding. As a reBult, Hope and Mrs. Monly were sent out to a dude ranch in Wyoming. So great was Hope's delight in the complete change of routine, so ni ter her anandon to the sheer Joy of physical strain and out'door life, that for the Brat time in years something of her old self sufBcien'y returned. tCoBtrriaht.
