Molly felt a little sick as, after giving her morning lesson, she went to the bank to draw out half of her pre- cious hoard. The following week she drew out the balance. “If you will work and slave to earn money my dear,” said Bella Pollock one day, “do for goodness sake, spend it on yourself. Take it from one who knows by experience. Jim Roth will appreciate a lacy negligee a whole lot more than a receipted milk bill,” Bella's tone was decidedly indignant. She had dropped in just as Molly was rather hopelessly trying to clean a badly worn dress with gasoline, and moreover she | was not a bit deceived by Molly's gay | chatter for her friend's eyes were red from tears as her hands were from gasoline. | Evidently Bella is rigitt, concluded | Molly” after due consideration of the causes leading up to Jim's angry exit. She was fully aware of the fact that | her housekeping had become some- | what sketchy of late. What with the time given to preparation of lessons in addition to the 20 lessons hours, she had made a short walk as pos- sible of her daily tasks. Suddenly she decided to at least take one day off to think over the situation. She hur- riedly telephoned her two pupils for the day. Realizing comfortably that for once | dressed for the street. Before leaving | the house she took a small brass Bud- | dha from the mantel and extracted five | 81 bills from the hollow interior. This‘ was the small amount she had been | able to save, bit by bit, since Jim’s| discovery of her savings account and | the consequent purchase of his new suit. It was 2 o'clock when she left the apartment. Molly’s 85 did not go far, but she managed a haircut, a pair of flesh colored silk stockings and a pink ging- | ham house dress with good lines. She hurried home and shortened the dress, bringing it to within a couple of inches | of her knees. None of her old dresses | was so short, and after slipping the | dress on she viewed her smart hair-cut | | and her long. slender legs in the bed- | room door mirror with considerable | satisfaction. The table was daintily set and a| steak, Jim's favorite meat, was broiled | to perfection, when at 6 o'clock Molly | heard his key in the lock. She ran to the door. Jim gave her an_amazed and approving glance from head to foot, then said as he kissed her: “I'm sorry I was such a brute this morning, dear. I—" “I don't belleve I.blame you a bit, Jimmy; things have been at sixes and sevens here for some time, but—you see—I—I've been working—" lmyself a suit,” and Jim looked the [ “everything is horribly high and—I do | heaven. there'll hate to ask for money, dear.” | & about that $50 savings ac- | count?” asked Jim suddenly. “You | took it from your allowance to buy her arms ikht, 1928.)

Capu. Gustave V. Brown of the Boll- ing received orders from Comdr. Byrd yesterday to walt for the City of New York in order that a transfer in radio supplies and personnel can be effected. ‘Will Transfer Radio Chief. Howard P. Mason, radio operator on the Bolling, who has been in charge of much of the radio construction work of the expedition, will go to the City of New York. There he will have more time and facilities to complete extensive special equipment, including many portable sets to be used on the ice with dog teams and planes and at_the bases. With Malcoly. P. Hanson, chief radio engineer of the expedition, who is also on the Bolling, Mason has succeeded in maintaining effective communica- tion with the other ships in the Antarctic fleet and with shore stations, but this has left 1ittle time to work on the sets, There are three radio operators on the City of New York and better work- ing facilities. So, after communication with Comdr. Byrd, it was decided to transfer Mason to the sailing vessel. His place on board the Eleanor Bolling will be taken by W. Petersen, now on the City of New York. Meeting Unexpected. L. V. Berkner and Lloyd Granlie will stand most of the watches on the flag- ship while Mason supervises construc- tion of the equipment. A large amount of radio suj will be Lraum?ped with him. Capt. Melville of the Oity of New York has offered every co-opera- tion in order that this important equip- ment will be ready in time. The meeting of the crews in the South Pacific was wholly unexpected until the decision was reached. The City of New York was originally sched- uled to stop at Samoa for coal and water, that point being on the sailing route, but since circumstances brought bo so close to Tahiti it was de- cided to have them meet there. The air has been full of radiograms between members of both crews, all of whom are enthusiastic about the de- cigion. The chance meeting will bring together about 10 members of Comdr. Byrd's Arctic expedition of 1926, who never dreamed that they would meet agein on a small island in_the South Pacific in surroundings so different from the ice of Spitabergen.
