ENTER DICKY DAK
C PICK and span after a bath at hla
club and a telephone call to
Santa, Cllve set out on tha last lap
of his long drive from Cape Cod to
the Dawn country place In New Jer
sey. The Dawn butler bad told him
Santa' was out, and be had suspect
ed a white He. This time, liowover.
he thought he divined her motive.
Preliminary speech would spoil tha
high ecstasy of their Impending
drama. Like all lovers, Cllve was
hastening to an ambush.
Aftor an hour's drive through
lovely summer country defaced by
advertisements and hot-dog stands,
he came to a village that was truly
rural. At Its far end In greon
oasis ot shaven lawns grew up a
oool white house. Immaculate as a

from public gaze by flowering
shrubs and rose-covered pergolas.
Turning In at the neat drive, he

neath the smiling windows. Spring

treasure was still Intact and the
spry young Jacks, whero were they?
Miss Santa was on the courts
-playing tennis. With a grateful grin
he signified that be would go to her.
At this point hla romantlo Imag
inings received a box on the ears;
her voice floated to him' through
the, brooding stillness, addressing
someone as "Dicky, darling." The
-box on the "ears was quickly fol
lowed by a blow between the eyes:
the vision of her Insolently cool
sprang figure as she kept a persplr
ivM opponent on the run by her
eerefully placed shots. ;
I "But, Dicky, darling you ought
to have got that one; I made It spe

i Pnshlng open the door In the wire
behind her, Cllve entered. This
iDIoky person was a new one a
striking contrast to the college
oys who had constituted her pre
vious captures. He was aristocratic
, solf-assurod. He bore a faint re
semblance to Albert, King ot the
Belgians blond, woll sot up, blue
ered, tresh-complexloned, -10-odd.
Be was obviously a good sport, for
fee was making a jest ot bis own
clumsiness.
"You must come riding with me.
I'm a wliard on horseback,"
"So much to learn about each
other," ahe jhajed him.
Cllve concealed fc!s chagrin by
snouting Santa's balls. Meanwhile
she lapsed Into French, wlil-h th.

concornod. most of what thv ih
was lost.
Suddenly, with premeditated
abruptness she flung down her
racket.
"Gather up the balls, Dicky, and
carry them to tha house. Cllve and
I will be with you In a second."
BOURBON LEADER
HOPE INTOXICATED
KW YORK, Oct. ai(AP)
Democratic National Chairman Jtmft
A. Ffiey predicted in a statement
today that ."the Republican party on
November 8 will plumb the loweat
depths It hat experienced In a
trtlght two-party contest tlnce the
Civil wtr.

"He's an awtul dear and at much

Having seated herself In the ar

"."ice old thing."
She ahot him a melting glance.
This time he described hit symp
toms more eloquently, rising to
poetle heights. This sacred day.
Tha arbor sacred. The swimming,
pool sacred. The wood a shrine.
And to meet thus after all their
wanderings. (She being eighteen;
he four years her senior!) The so
lemnity of the moment.
"And I can't live wlthont yen."
"But, darling," aha protested,
stroking his hand. "Except for our
last parting you've always bees
most comfortable,"
Their Angers Intertwined. Hers
twitched and fluttered. Unsur
prised and smiling, she came to him
without a atruggle. He atooped,
drinking In her eyes. The white
lids fell like shutter. Her Hps
pouted.
"Noset da get In the way." Her
bubbling laugh recalled him. "Feel
better now, don't yon 7"
He felt exultant.
"I saw at once what was the
matter with you," ahe continued.
"You've sot kissed a girl tor ages.
Now let's be sensible. Why do yon
think I sent Zor you?"
"Because you've been hungry tor
me the way I've been hungry for
you."
She shook her head, not exactly
In denial.
"I alwaya miss you, diva. But
that wasn't why. It waa because
I've done something. I was afraid
you might hear It second-hand.
Cllve, dear, I'm engaged."
They eat so silent that they could
almost hear the tinkle ot the sun
shine. "You're disappointed In me.1"
"Don't be absurd." There was
rough tenderness In his voice. "I'm
thinking what's best to be done. Is
this engagement official T What I
moan la have your parents consent

It. Daddy's been told, if lht' hn
you can consenting."
"Who Is the poor suckerr !
She shrugged her delicate shoul
ders. "Sucker's not complimentary.
He's my late partner at tennis."
"Oood grief. Santal What kind
of a mother have yon!"
"What's the matter with Mum
my?" aha asked on the defensive.
"Nearly everything," he blurted.
"Put yourself In her place and sup
pose you bad a daughter. Wouldn't
you rather iee her single forever
than the wife of a man nearly old
enough to be her father?"
"Don't exaggerate, Cllvs. He's
only fourteen years older than I
am."
"Only! Then he's only tit years
younger than your mother. She
must be craty."
