This plant is the first of its kind to be erected near a lignite mine in the Northwest and is an indication of the trend of industrial dévelop- ment. It is in the heart of one of the richest lignite territories in the state. For a time the new plant will get its coal from neighboring mines. Juter the com probably will iequire its ow: d and operate its own mines. May Use Water Power It is a most important step for the use of lignite but owing to the strategic location of the plant, on the north bank of the Missouri river, it is deemed likely that the company has hydroelectric possibil- ities in view, The Missouri river at this point offers unusual. oppor- tunitics for the construction of a da so far “white power” offers ‘the most economic advantages.

Now, somewhat as a reaction, there had sprung up on the other side of the bridge, the modern institution known as gn artist colony.

Prentiss, p haps in the vagaries of her insom- nia, had a persistent intuition there was a fly in the Heath ment, and she was determined to swat it. The -bungalow of the artist was a long-fronted house, shingled and painted white. With the superior taste of the Harbor Gardens crowd, he .scorned such things #s Jiving rooms, sun parlors, breakfast al- coves and sleeping porches. The whole of the middle of the house was one great room, called the lounge, which had doors back and front, and from which the stair- case ascended. Then, one end was the studio, spacious nnd well light- ed, and the other end, the dining room. That was all, save for the long rear extension back of the din- ing room, which housed the kitch- ens and servants’ quarters. Owing to the large size of the rooms there was ample space up- stairs for many chambers, guest rooms and baths. A wide brick terrace ran along the whole front of the house, and -the back doors o-ened onto the garden. Though the lounge was attractive, and planned with an eye to com. fort and convenience, the studio was al comfortable cozy room, and oftener than not, family and guests gathered there to smoke and talk, for Perry Heath was never too busy to stop work. It was on a soft,. lovely evening. in tate dune thet the two Heaths sat there with two house gues who, as they figure largely in tl story, may as well be described here. Bunny Moore, whose real name was Berenice, was the girl guest, and she was beautiful with the loveli- ness of youth. Though nearly twenty-two, she looked no more than eighteen, and her golden, bobbed head, her big blue eyes and her un- t sign of a j jusband and wife, ne were of that Dresden china variety that, in its perfection, is perhaps the fairest thing God ever made. EigI years younger than her hoste: they were home town friends, and Bunny was happily spending a month at the Gardens. In_ her Paris frock, which was merely, a widp of orchid-colored chif- fon, Banny looked like a French doll. But she was far from being of a doll-like nat@re. “I say,” she remarked, as her well reddened lips opened to allow the words to come out and a cigaret to enter, “any of the hilarious populace coming to dinner?” No” saidi Myra, her pale, Ips lazily emilmg, as @he glanced at Bunny. “We're all alone.
