TUESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1937. “JL wo’s Company By MARGARET GUION The Characters Nina, a nice girl with flaxen hair, lets a young man she has just met at a party, drive her home. David, the young man, has cop- per-colored hair, a beagle, an uppity new car and a refreshing nerve. He crashed the party. Cordelia, Nina’s closest friend, gave the party. Chapter Two Honey’s New Husband 'T DOESN'T take very long to drive from 47th street to 74th at 4:15 in the morning, when you drive like David. As he crossed over to Park, he said wistfully: “Sure you won’t have some scrambled eggs, or something? You see, I want to put off the evil moment.” “So it’s evil . /. your surprise?” “Rather.” “Um-m. Well, I really ought to go in, in a second, because Honey —that’s my bs geben 33 in from Chicago tonight, on a, ve I couldn’t meet her of aécoant of Cordelia’s party,::andi she’s just crazy enough: to.stay-awake for me.” Shere?

She let her- | self in. * The Stafford house, on 74th | street between Madison and Park, was an old-fashioned one, with a | high stoop that made you feel sort of naked and shivery as you stood | up there, waiting for the maid to | let you in. | Inside, it was as it had always been: a front living-room, and a ; back dining-room, with fireplaces in each, and a library on the sec- ond floor. Even the sliding doors were there, on little steel tracks; but there were no rubber plants, or statuary, or heavy velvet hang- ings on fat brass rods. They were lovely rooms. Queen Anne-ish. Polished floors and antique walnut pieces of rare beauty. In the high- ceilinged parlor, two chintz-cov- ered love seats came out at right angles from the fireplace, giving a comfortable feeling to the quiet, dignified old room. ‘ina liked it better than the li- brary, where Honey kept adding things: a china cat on a taffeta cushion, numerous eccentric blown-glass figures, cacti, “just one more teeny little coffee table” +» + dill it looked like a Madison favenue® stété window. It was 'Honey’s*toom,'and Nina loved it a a reason, but it made her sort of breathless. ‘As she came in, tonight, every ight’ Thine hated was burning. fell, that-was like Honey, too.

In- stead there was a feeling in the air of hushed expectancy . .. like a surprise party, with people wait- why do you call him Beagle? He's a lly large for a beagle, isn’t he? And even if he were, you don’t call a horse, Horse.” “Don’t you? I do. In fact, I call a spade a spade... . But I only found him this afternoon, no col- lar, or anything, and frightfully hungry. Suggest a name, then.” Nina eee the-hound thoughtfully. i “Well, he has little brown spots on him, like buttons. Why not ‘Button’? ... ‘Button, the beagle.’ That's cunning.” “It's stupendous, Button he is.” David’s Confession INA looked at David’s nice clean-cut profile.

With one out and runners on second and third, Valdes hit to shortstop, who threw home but the cacther did not touch the run- ner and so the Satans won in their half of the final frame.
