In the world worth taking advice
from besides poets. And if you
could hear what my daddy says about
my mother, 1 guess, maybe, you
might think she was one of them."
"Who said I never took advice
from anybody but poets?" Mary
Frances demanded. "I think your
mother Is an awfully nice lady. Er
mintrude. But I guess she wasn't
the toast of the south when she was
a girl. Now, my grandmother "
"I know. Tou told me. My mo
ther didn't live In the south."
"Well, Rosalie did. In South
Carolina, And I asked her just the
other day how people knew for sure
when they were in love, and all I
have to aay is thnt what she told
me, and she talked for pretty near
half an hour on the subject, cer
tainly didn't sound much like what
your mother had to say about being
married 10 years and babies and
all. And if age Is all you go by,
why, I guess Rosalie Is maybe t
little older than your mother."
Ermintrude. not barren of tact,
remarked, "Miss Alderman was mad
as hops when you cut basketball
the other day."
"I didn't feel like rowdying
around," Mary-Frances replied, and
sighed spectacularly. "I had some
poetry to copy."
"You'll be sorry, though, If she
flunks you in gym."
"I don't know," said Mary-Frances,
deliberately dreamy, and, one fears,
deliberately vexatious, "I might be
far away married, or living my own
life by having a career with Earl,
or anything, by thnt time."
Small dining tables were set out
on a tiled terrace, and there were
a pool and a fountain and a smooth
green lawn, and awny in the dis
tance Mount Hood gleamed warm
pink against a blue sky.
Ann brought her eyes oack from
the mountain to look at Phil, across
the table from her. He was hand
some and wise and strong nnd smil
ing, and he loved her. She smiled,
too, and said. "Phil, dear, I adore
this place. However did you find
it, away out here?"
"A friend of mine told me abut
it. There's dancing, later, inside, if
we care to stay."
"Let's! But can wet It has
been so long since we have danced.
How long?"
"Too long. We do get Into ruts.
Sort of forget about good times to
be had. don't wo?"
"Perhaps. But during the winter
there isn't much to do. We don't
care for public dances."
t "No. But we could go places and
dine, as we're doing this evening,
and dance, if "
"If what?" sho asked, but she
continued smiling, because she did
not know what Phil had begun to
say, "If you had the proper things
to wear to the better places, or
weren't always getting dinner at
home, or too tired."
"If we'd plnn," he said. "We will,
ntter this. Well have good times
tnis summer, and well keep them up
next winter. What about it, you
beautiful?"

TELEVISION NEXT
NEW TQRK OP) Radio greets
the new year with high hopes for
greater progress in the development
of television.
Still looking upon sight as consid
erably experimental, the industry be
lieves, however, that sufficient pro
gress has been made to warrant a
favorable outlook.
Broadcasting continued to show a
tendency to maintain leadership in
.U. .nJ.n 1.11- .1.. J f

turing industry reflected general
business conditions through a smaller
nmount of sales.
Bond P. Geddes, executive vice
president of the Radio Manufacturers'
association, estimated that the total
business would be approximately
Jf.'ao.uoiP.oiiu, compared witn twice
thnt much in 1030.
An increase in the number of
countries from which radio programs
were broadrast came during the year,
including the addition of Jnpnn and
Siam to the list. Particularly out
standing was the opening of station
HVJ, Vatican City, in wmrn iJope
Pius mode bis first world-wide radio
talk.
In the laboratories television re
search went on apace, including ex
periments on high frequencies with
the idea in mind that the ultra-short
waves will be the practical place to
put picture transmission.
In that connection also was 'the
work on cathode ray tubes, electrical
scanning devices, performed by Dr
Vlndimar Zworykin at Camden, X. J.,
and Philo T. Farnsworth at Phila
delphia. Engineers hoped to be able to prove
'the value of this picture research with
the start of work on the installation
of a high frequency transmitter by
the National Broadcasting company
on top of the Empire State building,
New York.
Otherwise sonnd and sight experi
ments went forward with the addition
of two such stations In New York
to those already operating In Chicngo
nnd several other centers.
Picture station W'.'Xt R began
transmitting In conjunction with
WOHS. while W2XAK of the Colum
bia Broadcasting system was started
with the sound being handled by the
short wave station W'.'XE.
