It was toward morning' when the hot dogs had ran Out, and Eve had gone to the kitchen to make sandwiches of tinned chicken that there was a rustle at the back door. She was straggl ing to open a can at the moment and so did not look op until a hand came down orer fiers, tak ing both can and openef while a voice said somewhat roughly "Let me do this." She was picked np and put down upon the one kitchen chair, while a long, thin figure took her place and a pair of hazel eyes twinkled at her. "Why, it's you. Nory!" She could not feel surprised; it seem ed quite natural someway to see him there. 'Me. myself. In person. And how's the dryad?" "Not Wry Oryadlsh tonight my dear. Her look turstfl twfi tat frtmt or tat boas ant tfc hub-bub that was ther. He cut bread, spread slices with batter and minced chicken, slapped the slices together and cut them In neat diamonds and Sre sat watching htm. "I don't think you're such a good friend after all." she re marked at last. "Where were yon anyway, Nory? And why didn't you send me the tiniest happy wish? I expected this from you missed it " He waited a while and answer ed finally In a grare tone: "Yon knew yon had all my good wishes Ere. Ton and Ken.

A tnere or aoes me coo come oun As casual as that, Nory was, but comforting to the bride who felt strangely lonely at her house warming. He said little and laughed not at all, observing the party as if it were Interesting, but not quite convincing. He had a way of surveying Eve across the distance of the room, giving her his whimsical smile when she happened to catch his look.

GM1DI I PHIES F OR H H AHMEDABAD. India. March 4. (AP) Mahatma Gandhi, the old man of the Hindu masses and leader of the new campaign of non-violent disobedience to the British rule, has seat his ulti matum to the Indian government. On foot at the head of bis fol lowers, he is preparing to sally forth In the crusader style when the period of notice has expired. The ultimatum, which calls upon (he British viceroy. Lord Irwin, to grant a number of re quests from the all-India nation alists congress, was handed by Gandhi to an Englishman named Reginald Reynolds, who will de liver it personally to Lord Irwin. The requests probably will not be granted and when the period of eight days grace expires, the civil disobedience campaign will start in the Gujerat district.

But the sign had been more right than the In vitations; she acknowledged this to herself with a ruefal 'bit of a mile, now that the party was all over and Ken a bit tlpsily had got himself into bed with a pitcher of tee water near at hand. "Some party!" he kept mum bling, dozing between the words. Some . . I party. Wasn't it, red hed? SOME . . -. party." "Yes, dear," she would answer. And when finally he stopped mumbling she slipped down to the living room and emptied still smoking ash trays and wiped np a spilled cocktail or two and de cided that perhaps the broken back of a rush-bottom chair might be mended and lowered the hades against broad sunlight. But even after Ere had dark ened the bedroom and folded the pillow carefully under her head she could not sleep. The party kept whirling through her .mind, a wild confusion of noise and color and light with scenes stand ing-out, only to dissolve and form other scenes quite as figures shape themselves in a kaleido scope. Ken, tossing the cocktail shak er up and down, his face too red. leek hair rumpled and .falling over his eyes. Ivy Carr's worried, scornful gzze on her Husband, Pierre somewhat drunkenly mak ing love to Elma s pretty young sister who did an original and as tonishicg version of the Charles ion on the table after four gin rickys. Chuck Holly broiling "dasch- iands" at the kitchen range Ere had ordered these Instead of the dinner in the end. And Fifl Devoe bursting in when the evening was half orer. throwing herself at Ken, kissing him on the mouth. Had he held her a minute longer than was necessary? Fifi had returned from Holly wood only last night and had traced the sounds of revelry to the bungalow. She ignored the fact that the party was a house- warming and ignored Ken's mar riage; she wonld have ignored her hostess except that Eve still held to the Connecticut whimsey of greeting her guests. "Love Gave Me an Hour" had made the movies Fifl proclaimed to all who cared to listen. It was bought and paid for, which was a good thing for the movie peo ple, but bad for Fifl since she never no, not ever! would have allowed her precious story to be touched by the assassins had she dreamed what atrocities they would commit. "It Is," she cried, very French all at once with her hands flung up in the way of one easting treasure to the whistling winds. "Zat first xay must make my to lovely bad girl a so stupid good girl. Now my hero must go since the personnelle is too protract. So! It is now the plot must rear range itself and my title yon hear me! say say it "Passion's Pawn!' I ask you!" cried Fifl Devoe with her arms about her head, tears splashing down her cheeks. Ken's "voice. . crackling with laughter, cut through .her woe. "Cheer up, kid. Here's something will make you forget it." And Fifl seemed indeed not at all concerned with the misfortune after a few of Ken's cocktails. She still wre the soiled middy and the torn blue skirt and Eve could not help wondering if they had been changed during her two months' absence, though of course the middy had been clean when Fifl left for Hollywood.
