It disconcerted Ann to realize how much she had been looking for ward to it. Why, she was even more excited about it than she had been a year ago at her own coming-out out party at the Ritz -Carlton! "Being democratic is all very well, sneered Claire, but I can't think why you want to mix with that rabble!" "They're splendid men and girls!" Ann had flared back. "A thousand times better than the parasites and show-offs who live for bridge and cocktails and gossip!" Claire had laughed nastily, and gone off for an evening's contract at Carol. Ditmar's, with Captain de Freyn. . Bernice had been nice about it, or at any rate had attempted consola tion by the remark that she didn't blame Ann one bit, considering the good-looking Paul Bradley would be at the dance, and Ann would have a chance at-'vamp'Lng him. ... Ann wore the cloudy pink tulle that had been made for her own cominir-out party. It was a lovely gown, and caught on each shoulder with a silver star, and worn with silver slippers. - A rich frequenter of "the Laugh ing Pig" had that day presented Bernice with a corsage of white or chids. Having no evening date, Ber nice insisted that Ann wear them to the store dance. She fastened them, complete with silver love-knot, to a silver star on Ann's shoulder. They curled in waxen beauty about her rieht ear. "And now well requisition the family ermine, so youll knock 'em dead l" Bernice trizeled. This was a white fur cloak with a great collar of white fox, belonging to their mother, but borrowed by the daughters as occasion arose. "Oh, Lolly- would never let mel Ann protested. "For heaven's sake, it'll be in hock any dayl Grab it while the crab bing's good!" counselled the older girl. When Bernice swung it about her shoulders. Ann stared at herself in the mirror. There could be no love lier frame for her beauty than this ermine wrap with its great swirl of fur about her face, and since she . was taller than Lolly from the knee- downwards there was a foam of rose-pink skirts. "You look like dawn on the high Alps, darline or should I say sun rise 7 " Bernice looked enviously at Ann. She had gained ten pounds avoirdupois through her duties at "The Laughing Pig. It wasn't be coming, but what could one do about it? ; "Ann thouehU were on Paul Bradley. What would think of her in the lovely gown and ermine wranT Was it fair to flaunt such expen sive things in the face of her fellow- workers I Bernice. however, insisted on it. : To Ann's relief, she found she wasn't sporting the only ermine cloak at the ball. Brenda Selx was in red chiffon velvet with a similar wrap, and there were several others in the foyer outside the ballroom. The party beean. Stiff at first, but gradually Even ing up as men and women lost their shyness over mingling with the dif ferent "grades. ... " Here a little "contingent" (one who is temporarily employed in the store during holiday rush or sales days) would be dancing with a floor manager (who knew nothing about her except that she was lovely to look at) and wasn't the haughty stylist front Paris (she of the black satin presence) floating around in the arms of Clancy, the detective of the employees entrance I . A voluptuous vision in too-tight whit satin, Cora Schwarts of the Costume Jewelry was having her innings with the Art Director of the Advertising, whom she adored. . Cheng Lo, the Chinese tea attend ant from the da laze fitting-salon, in an orchid gown she'd wrangled from little Miss Shellfish, the Misses' Buyer, for the occasion, was flirting, shyly but effectively, in Ori ental manner, with a good-looking stock boy. . . .

With softly blooming cheeks and hair delectably waved and (whisper it!) tinted, she looked ten years younger, as Maxie r urchheimer, the portly manufac turer of Misses' Dresses to whom she gave so many orders, was whis pering to her as they danced. . "You re as lieht as a feather. Maxie," she told him ecstatically, smiling at the red-faced fifty-year- old. To her he was amazingly eood- ooking. Virile! was her inward de scription of him. She was an avid reader of light novels. Say. Gerty, if you keep flashing that dimple on me. 111 lose my head!" '7 don't mind if you lose it!" Miss Shellfish flung at him coyly. Oh! this was a night of nights! Renita Parrish was dancing with Gordon Gavin, who had dined with her at her apartment earlier that evening, through pique with Ann. He had wanted to take Ann to the store dance, but she had abso lutely turned him down, and he was furious about it. But Renita had given him an amazingly good dinner. Snails were his passion, and, among other dishes, Renita had had a bowlful for him, with the right wine at the right temperature, and even a bottle of champagne towards the end of din ner. He felt completely reinforced. Ann was dancing with a hand some window dresser. Oordon turned his eyes resolutely away from her and her white orchids and curly bob, and redoubled his atten tions to Renita, who was in slinky Nile green. Tonight she simply had to be a Cleopatra if ever she was to be witch this reluctant Mark Antony 1 But she was making headway with him, after a long drought, amatori ally speaking. - uuv, .irvs, 4 tucuusi, uau visited the beauty-parlor, but with more stunning results. She was a :k i. mjr;- wiTa. i handsome girl with a lovely figure, and her auburn hair was exquisitely arransred in a straight sweep from her forehead and little sculptured curls at the back of her neck. Perfume at $25 an ounce had been sprayed upon her hair, the lobes of her small ears, the hem of her dress. Gordon and she moved in a divine aroma, as she had planned they would, cost or no cost. "We dance well together, don t you think?" She lifted her green eyes, whose heavy -lids were touched with jade-srreen shadow paste, artis tically. Pale green powder misted the flash upon her cheeks. -"We certainly do." The' music swelled about them. Renita snuggled closer to him.. She closed her eyes. At that moment, Gordon saw the window-dresser leading; Ann to the door of the ballroom, and Ann stop ping to speak to Paul Bradley.' ' It didnt mean anything, of course. And yet ; Five minutes later. Ann was back in the ballroom, dancing with the merchandise-manager. Over Renita's head, Gordon kept tabs. . They looked marvelous together. There was no denying it, though Gordon loathed Paul Bradley. They danced the encore. It was the famous waits from "Naughty Marietta,' ... named "Sweet Mvtttry of Life." ... Gadl if only he himself had been dancing that exquisite number with Ann I - WhjIn heaven's name, had he come here with Renita Parrish, who was going to be a regular incubus I Oh! to et rid of herl It was a good hour before ha was able to get a dance with the other girl. - She had promised all kinds of people, which, thought Gordon snob bishly, was carrying affability too far. And twice, during that period, she had danced with the merchandise-manager. " . - "Look here! Let's sit this eat! It's stiflingly hot in here. I've found a cute little balcony with chairs in it sort of a sun porch. Ill get your wrap " Gordon suggested to Ann. v -All right." It would be nice to get a breath of air. It was balmy night for the middle of December, and there was a moon over Broad way. . They; went oat on the balcony. " Wrappld in the ermine cloak with its swirl of white fox fur, Ann drew a long, rapturous breath. Wheat Drops Cent Bushel Slow Export Trade With Future Ideas, Result in Price Cuts CHICAGO. Feb. 10-tf)-Sbarp- iy contrasting with upturns or. securities, the Chicago wheat market tumbled one cent a bushel today. Disappointing current v export trade in United States wheat, together with predictions Europe would buy only moderate quan tities from this country the re mainder of the season, did much to pull Chicago prices down. It was reported that Russia had resumed wheat offerings and that big discounts on Australian wheat had taken the play away from North America, especially from sellers of -United .States hard winter wheat. At the close, Chicago wheat futures were to 1 cent under yesterday's finish, May 95-95, July 91-91; corn unchanged to up, May 59-60, July 60. Advance in Wool Price Improbable WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-fP)-The abureau of agricultural eco nomics said today there was little liklihood of an advance in wool prices this spring comparable with that of a year ago which sent quotations to the highest level since 1929. The bureau said factors tend ing to hold prices at current levels included much larger stocks and the expectancy that mill consumption will be consid erably smaller than during the early months of 1937. Domestic wool prices have been declining since last Sep tember. "Isn't life lovely. Gordon?" "It is when you're with me." he murmured. Neither spoke for a while. The air hammed with the soand of traf fic on Broadway and its side streets. In the lis-ht of electric signs of multi-color, Ann's face was radi antly pretty. Annl Listen! Look at me!" Before she could stop him. he had capght her in his arms. How was he to know that Brenda Selz had come out on the balcony, for privacy, for a hope of love-mak- . ing with Paul Bradley, and that they were directly behind him as he buried his miserable, ardent young face in Ann's fur collar? Accompanied by Paul Bradley at the store dance, nothing could have pleased Brenda Selz better than to come upon pretty Ann Delafield with Gordon Gavin's arms about her and his young face buried in the fur collar of her evening wrao. there on the secluded little balcony. "Paul, cerae away ! We re intrud ing!" Brenda whispered to Paul. Knowing the fastidiousness of the merchandise-manager, she thought: "This'll be the finish of his interest in herl" The loud hum of traffic down on Broadway had silenced their foot steps. So quickly did they leave the balcony that they were unseen by Ann. Nor did they have the time to see her gently but firmly remove Gordon's encompassing arms, ana step back from him. Inside the building, Brenda, re marking she was somewhat fatigued and would like a cigarette, led Paul to a couch behind some palms. "So that was that!" She con trived a bright, sympathetic smile that served two purposes. It re moved, she thought, any suggestion of cattinesa against her rival. Also it displayed her flashing white teeth. Paul asked sharply: "That was the boy from the Advertising, was it not7" Now as Gordon Gavin's face had been completely hidden in Ann's collar, this implied that Paul had been keeping tabs on the pair all evening, thought Brenda. She shrugged nonchalantly as he pit her cigarette for her, and leaned back on the couch in the manner oz pictures she had seen in the news papers that were captioned : "Smart Society Woman at Ball of the Elite." She didnt cross her legs because she had thick ankles. In more ways ' than one, Brenda was astute. "Oh, we mustn't be too hard on them at least not outside of busi ness hours. It might be any one of a half-dozen fellows . she plays around with. She's young "this with an effort at teeming generosity "you really can't blame her for flirting." He gave Brenda a close look. ' "It was not my impression that Miss Delafield is er light-minded. Quite the reverse, in fact." She saw he was troubled, and that angered her. A chit in her teens to come out of her Society environ ment and play ducks and drakes with real people who had their hu man feelings, as the had! - "It's as likely young Gavin as notl Miss Shellfish told me she came upon them kissing in one of her fitting-salons. Which was in accurate, this tale having sprung from furiously jealous Renita Parrish. There was a strange pause. The look in the eyes Of the merchandise manager was inscrutable. Brenda had an uncomfortable suspicion that he was reading her very soul, and knew she was desperately ex aggerating about Ann Delafield. "Does it matter so much, really? she asked softly, moving a couple of inches nearer PauL "Certainly the conduct of the salesgirls matters. The morale most be maintained. Miss Shellfish should have reported the affair to me. I shall take it op with her , he said brusquely, never removing that pen etrating gaze from the face of Brenda. "Oh, for heaven's sake, dont do that, please 1 Miss Shellfish would never forgive me for tattling about her department,- and we're such good friends I I only told yon in con fidence because you seemed so anxious to know who the young man with Miss Delafield was. .

Under leadership of rails and coppers, the list registered top marks in the morning, for a time, dealings were relatively, fast. The ticker tape, however, slowed to a snail-like crawl when traders began to cash in.

Hops have been grown in Oregon since 1850 and some years have rivaled wheat as a major source of Ore gon farm income. Until recently, however, hop growing was more or less of an individualistic enterprise with very little scientific investigation either as to cultural methods, va rietal development, or disease and pest control. Major work of both state and federal hop grow ing research is now centered at Oregon State college. Tests in the experimental hop yard in 1938 are expected to add considerable to present knowl edge of such subjects as best date of cutting vines, results of crown ing, suckering and stripping, most suitable fertilizers, best cultivation practices, as well as suitable cover crops.
