He waited for her retort. Silence compelled him to continue. , "After all, Santa, my queatlon wasn't impertinent. You're been creating the false Impreaalon that I've wronged you," To hla alarm big tear rolled down her cheek. She .brushed It way perfunctorily. "I'm aihamed. I've treated you rottenly." "Of courae you hare." weariness overcame her. She placed her handa before her eyes. "I've got to contest. My marriage ill a flop." ' What he had heard and what he bad conjectured pieced themaelrea together. I "Is there anything I can do?" ihe whlapered huskily. I She shook her bead. : "I can't bear that you ahould think harshly of me." I "What have you to tell met" ; "About Dicky. Why I took him. 1 couldn't bear-to hurt him. Instead of being Jealous at the way we parted, he was sorry. I'll never for get the way he dried my tears. .You wouldn't have done that. It seemed such treachery to deceive film. I asked his advice." . "Good heavens! About what?" "Breaking my engagement and following you to Europe." "You precious Innocent! Let'a get this straight. You aiked his ad vice as to whether yon ought to chuck him?" "Sounda crasy, doesn't It?" "And ie aald that It waa your duty to stick to him?" "He dldn'L He pointed to all his rwn disadvantages.

Cllve tried . to Ignore her. He glanced at the clock and rose. "You're married to a smart man." "Sit down." She seized his hand. "Dicky Isn't smart He's always at toe to lend him money. When 1 re fuse, he tells me I don't trust him." "Don't forget that you're confiding to a man who lovea you." "Do your' Then dodging the answer, "Dicky's so dear, for all bis badnesa. He tippled before I married him. Every time we quarrel be drinks harder. What I'm afraid jpf " Suddenly a thought made Cllve ee red. : "It I were to hear that he'd laid finger on you," he threatened. ; In the hall they atood staring at each other. When would they meet gain, If ever? 1 She drifted nearer. "You loor kid!" He took her In jtls arms. "You're aate now, little Santa." I That brought her to her senses I "Darling. I owed you this; but I'm jot good for you." She puabed him toward the door, 'locked It behind him, turned out Jthe hall lights and tiptoed op to bed. The moment she waa alone her 'mood changed. She waa a fine one ito accuse Dicky, who took a drink too many when ahe'd made him nsry; wbereaa she, the puritan, flung beraelt Into the arms of any old lover. Through a night of toss Ing ahe recalled the bright spots jln the paat year. Dicky was a lamb; ahe waa the alnner. Next morning at breakfast aha (announced to her mother and father, i m going back to Chicago." "Not today, darling." "What'a the matter with today. Mummj ?" After Mr. Dawn had left he answered: "1 don't know, dap ling. You're your own mistress. But I "I can guess." Santa forestalled fcer. "Daddy's been discussing me. He's way off got the wrong Idea." . "Then everything's all rlghtr i "Why shouldn't It be?" SCHOOL LEADER New membere for the leadership raining group, selected from the fifth and sixth grade of the Washington. Lincoln, Roosevelt and Jack eon schools, have been announced by Mtss Carln Degermark, supervisor of physi cal education.

Josephine Bullls, Edith Drooks, and Audrey Fletcher. Prom the Lin coln, Mary Wooldrldge. Violet Mills, IVeda Hopkins and Ruth Welden: (torn tije Jaoksop, -Svelya Hryood, "Only that becoming a wife Is al waya a business. Such readjust ments." "Curtailments," Santa helped her. "Exactly." That afternoon, without further palaver, Santa boarded tbe Chicago Limited. It waa a clear, cold morn ing wben ahe arrived. Losing no time she drove straight to her apart' ment. As she waa paying ber fare, aomeone Jostled ber, scrambling Into tbe taxi which ahe bad barely vacated. "Gee It's bitter I 'xcuae me dearie." Santa gained a glimpse of a alight girl, commonly pretty, eyea Im mensely blue, a wealth of flaxen hair. The detail ahe remembered was that the Jostlcr wore a polo coat of tbe same model aa one that ahe herself possessed. Having closed her door and listened, ahe tiptoed to the kitchen. Not a sign of Ann. The apartment had an odd atmosphere of neglect unventllated, und listed. tDo dining room rat. atrewn with unwashed platea her cholcvjt which bad coat from two to tbree hundred dollars a a dozen. It looked aa If Dicky bad thrown a party to hoodlums and then decamped. There remained only one room to explore. The bed bad been alept In; tbe clothes were tossed aside. Here, as everywhere, were mounds of cigarette stumps. She was despairing, wben a sound attracted ber. She peered Into the bathroom. "Hello, Dicky!" "Dash It all, Santa! I'd have cut my lip off It this razor hadn't been a safety." She hovered on the threshold, re pentant, lovely. "You're glad to aee me. Dicky?" "If you want the truth, I thought you'd gone for good." "Would It bare been for good, Dicky?" . "For the lore of Mike give a fel low a chancel Can't you see what I'm doing?" Hie reflection gazed at her from the mirror. He atood framed In the entrance to the bathroom scrubbing bis face with a towel. 'What have you been doing with out me, Dicky?" 'Camping. What did you expect? I couldn't keep a maid when I was alone. Let ber go to avoid a scan dal." 'I never thought of that," ahe said humbly.'' Well, think of It next time and oblige me." He disappeared. So there was going to be a next timet She drew a algh of relief. She could act naturally now that ahe waa aure ahe would share this room. Approaching the dressing-table, he applied some tonlo to hla hair Not till he waa knotting hla cravat did he again acknowledge her. She glanced up palely, like a child who had been slapped. "May L Dicky?" "Cut out that Dicky stuff." She rose to face him. "I'm lorry." "A man doesn't like to be made a fool." '0, please want me, Dicky the way you did when J waa new." At the eight of her teara. he melt ed. 'There There, little girl! We won't mention 1L It'a over." 'But I must," she pleaded, "to etart thlnga straight" "What'a that?" He atlffoned. You've not been off with a man?" She shook ber head, weeping buckets. 'It'a about Cllve." 'Cllve, by golly I The last you told me he was In Europe." I thought be was; but my first night home he waa dining with my paronta." "That wont wash. Santa. To aee Cllve waa why you left me." "But listen, Dicky," she Implored. I'm truthful. You don't need to use these third degree methods " Stifled at times by aobblng, she blundered out her confession. 'And ao I waa unhappy for him. I'd been a wretch to him. And he waa unhappy for me, too, 1 guess. Mummy and Daddy had made It fairly obvious that they iuspected I hadn t bolted borne for nothlnx. They shouldn't have left ua alone though that waa chiefly my fault it happened at parting. I've got to be honest; I folt 1 owed It tr-olm." "So that was all!" He smiled. "A kiss more or leea In a lifetime doesn't matter." 'You don't mind?" 'Of course 1 mind," he spurred hla antagonism; "but no bones are broken." "You're aweet auch a dear, for giving husband." 'How about breakfast?" Ho freed himself. (CAtrrttU IW-ltJl. C..rtfi Dewtee) . Santa, spurred on by unexpected revelations, makes a serious do clelon, Monday.
