From a capital of $200,000. Hare you had a legacy rince then?" -No. It's the Interest, of course." "By Jore! That's seren and a halt per cent, you know! What bare you rot it In?" "I don't know. Cuthbert Kelton was the trustee. I left erery thing la hit hands and soon I was get ting much more. Don't look so alarmed, Alan. Anyone will tell you that Keltoa and Rood are one of the best firms of lawyers in New York though why they go on callinr themselres Rood when Rood's been dead for I know . Cuthbert quite well," cut In Alan. 'He used to act for my father. Always admired him Immensely. I'm going to look him up." "Alan, he's dead nearly a year ago. Roper has the helm now." "Poor old Kelton! He was a comparatively young man, too! . . I can't imagine that indefinite youngster of his in charge of a bugs clientele." "Roger isn't an indefinite youngster. Hee a little alder than I am and he's very definite, In deed." "Hello. Alan oh, dear, I nsed to say 'Mr. Bretnaway!' I'm so aorry, but it's Shirley's fault." Shirley's Aunt Marion had whirled into the big room and was busy welcoming him before Alan fully realized it. Mrs. Sibley was small, thin, dynamic, While she held Alan's hand her eyes roved to her drawinr-room and darted back to Shirley. "Were you talking about Roger Kelton, darling?'' She had cut negligently into Alan's inquiries as to her own health and happi ness. Tou know, I think definite la the last word you can apply to him . . . The poor boy was left very badly off. Alan, only fire or six thousand a year and the law business, I heard, and you cer tainly can't be very definite on that. I admit." "I should have thought Cuth bert was wealthy," remarked Alan uninterested. "Oh, he was very. Very. But he had a big family. There were atrings of legacies. Such a mis lake ... No tea. Shirley I must dress. It takes much longer than It used to. You'll dine with us, Alan, won't you?" "Yes. do!' echoed Shirley. "We are going on to the Weatburys af terwards. The English ambassa dor is expected to turn up and everyone will be there. You'll like to get into touch again." It was on the tip of Alan's tongue to refuse. Shirley, did not want what he most wanted to give; therefore he would offer Iter nothing . . . Then, in a flash, time lost all Its values. In a single second he passed through a number of sub tie thought-processes. He was tack at school writing out a hun dred times the translation of some French proverb. "The more it changes the more it is the same thing." Of course it was the same thing! He had moralised, he had measured, he had priggishly re jected and it all eame back to the truth that he wanted Shirley the touch of her, the sound of her voice, the right to hold to her lips the full cup she craved.

"I should like to go to the Westbury's. Ill run along and change." There was no obvious magnifi cence about the Westburys. But the Westburys had been rich and. at odd intervals, mildly distin guished for generations, and it had become the essence of their being that they need remind no one of those facts. Their house in Grammercy Park might have belonged to a prosperous business man. Alan' Brennaway, wedged with a score or so of others la the nar row hall, wondered almost with detachment how they would make their way to the staircase. Mrs. Sibley, Shirley and him self had, been forced into Indian file and Alan was doing his ut most not to crush Shirley's frock a brief but glorious affair of orchid. mauve and silver, with a sudden swathing of black fur. She turned around and looked up at him. "Isn't it an awful little rabbit hutch?" he remarked. "Only the Westburys. would dare." To her it was an idle common place but to him a profound mys tification. Westbury. ho knew, had held a very minor post in the diplomatic service some years ago. Why was it that Westbury and apparently only Westbury would dare to ask some three hundred persons to a house that eould not comfortably contain two hundred guests who, as Shirley had explained, Included "every one?"

Elton Watkins. attorney tor a group et dairymen, essayed to question M. M. Miller, milk Investigator for ths United States public health service, as to his credentials, in ferring that some of the dairymen thought that the federal official was not sailing under his true colors. "Some of the dairymen have asked me to question you as to your credentials," said Watkins at a hearing on the proposed stand ard milk ordinance before the city council yesterday. "You would not think it impertinent of me it I asked you some questions about it, would -you?" "I certainly would," Miller re turned. "If the people of Port land question my credentials I'll leave the city at once. I was in vited to Portland by the state board of health. I was sent here by the federal government. Ques tioning of my credentials in the matter is a personal insult to me." Mayor Baker insisted that, as a staircase jRhich could Just contain Shirley and Mrs. Sibley abreast Ahead of them was one of the biggest men Alan had ever seen. Standing stock still with one hand on the bannister, he effectively blocked the staircase and obvious ly intended to do so until the staircase was clear. "Who is that fellow?" asked Alan of Shirley.

Suggestions that the ordinance was being drafted la the interest bt the pasteurizing plants were denied by Miller, Who declared that the object of the milk ordi nance is to set that both ths raw and pasteurised milk is clean. Attacka on the ordinance were directed by F. M. Klger and other dairymen on the ground that the expenses entailed by the ordi nance would put most of the dalrymea oat ot basin ess. They declared that the whole story was not told In Us ordinance Itself, be.fc.that the milk inspectors had a "dairymen's bible" which made rulings that ths dairymen knew nothing about.

W, V HER LIKY IS NOW DISBARRED Companionate Marriage Ad vocate Loses License to Practice Law DENVER Dec. 10 (AP) Ben B. Undsey, militant exponent of companionate marriage and noted former juvenile court judge today was disbarret from the practice of law in Colorado by the state su preme eoart for accepting money rrom a prominent New York and Denver society matron tor legal services while he was on ths bench. . LIndsey, immediately upon be- apprised of the tribunal's decision, issued a statement that he was the victim ot political persecution. The former Juvenile Judge was charged specifically by the Bar association with accepting $37,500 from Mrs. Helen Elwood Stokes, divorced wife of W. E. D. Stokes, New York multimillionaire, for services in contesting Stokes' will which left his estate to a son by a former marriage. His two chil dren by the second Mrs. Stokes, James and Helen Muriel, were cut off without bequests. "Unless," recited the court's opinion, "one has the moral strength ot character to stand im movable in his fidelity to duty against the allurements ot money, and to resist temptation to do those things that are prohibited by law and to the Judge, then be no longer possesses that indispens able moral character which the good ot society and the admin istration of justice demand of an attorney an1! counselor at law." Contending that he had be friended Mrs. Stokes, that his services to her were disassociated from his work in the Juvenile court and that he acted "merely as arbitrator and mediator" LInd sey denied in his argument before the supreme court that his prac tices-had been unethical.
