The slender dancer who became in two months the outstanding interest of Thaw's mature life is a sharp con trast to F.velyn Nesbit. When she is on her job at tha C-( tillian Gardens at I-ynhrook, lxng Island, she is a shimmy dancer of the Hilda 15 ray type. In fact ah first made the town notice her as one of Hilda's girls in a Broadway night club, and succeeded Gilda as a principal en tertainer. Off the job. she is a graceful young girt with black hair, wise blue eyes, firm thin lips and a subdued costume enlivened by a gorgeaus bracelet. She has seen euough of the town's play boys to have a background of judg ment when she says Thaw is excep tionally intelligent. And it can be said of her, likewise, that she is intelligent beyond the fluff of dancing girl con versation, that she has dignity and a superior personality. Her appeal now is primarily to the spirit. This writer, as cue who sat at Fawn Gray's table for two hours. talked to her, danced with her and en joyed the charm of her company, is ready to take off bis hat to Harry Thaw as a discriminating "picker." Thaw's latest romance ii pattern ed on a plot which fiction writers would avoid as incredible. When it first became known that he was back again on Broadway, there were many versions of the meeting, but this oue is authentic. About three months ngo when Miss (tray danced in a big charity benefit performance here, her picture whs sent around to the papers aa pub licity for the show. Thaw saw it. From his southern retreat he wrote a letter, telling his admiration for her beauty and complimenting her upon giving her talent to a good cause. She laughed and left the letter un-j answered. I In about a week she received R I telephone message - from Thaw, who i had come eagerly to New York and ' was using the name of Fvans. He located her at the Club Tabariu. j where she was dancing. That evening he descended upon the price, bearing in his vchi pocket an introdietory gift. It was the bracelet, n flexihle plati num chain beuring 12tl small dia monds. He danced only with her, and his eyes remained fixed upon bar. whether she sat at his table or moved about the room. As April and May went by, he told the pretty girl of his farm in Vir ginia, a home awaiting her. He inti mated that he would like the bracelet to serve as a marriage engagement token. When Thaw "falls' for a girl, it is a hard full. His years nnd his impris onment have not handicapped his ar dor in pursuing beauty. This ;Wn proved when Texas (iiiinan gave awny tho secret of his presence anil grasp ed priceless front page publicity for her cafe. Thaw came up to New York and hastened out to the Castillinn Gar dens. Miss Gray wus there dancing. So was a party of her friends.

Discussing the method of electing officers of the legislative bodies, he charged that bartering of votes for speaker ami president of the smdte in exchange for committee chairman ships and committee berths amounted to form of bribery.

With long distance to serve, you can be wherever you want to he. There are 16,000,000 telephones in the nation-wide communications service built for your use, One of them is always near to send back deci sions and desires to home or office, or carry words of love or greeting to places that call your thoughts.
