WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1937, lwo s Company By MARGARET GUION The Characters Nina impulsively mar ‘ied David and is trying to forget her intense love for her stepfather. Richard, the charming, well- tailored stepfather, shamelessly talks of love to Nina, Honey, Nina’s gay, plump, youthful mother, is wild about Richard, her newly acquired hus- band.

She was visitin’, too, just out of school, and the loveliest thing that ever drew the breath of life.” He was absolutely unself-con- | Scious. “I was going to take her | home with me...” i Nina took note of that “I was going to...” and waited.

A tall young man, using a stick, and leaning heavily on the arm of an attendant, approached from the far end of the conservatory. The attendant, who was short and bow-legged, and looked like a retired jockey, raised his eye- brows in an inquiring way. and psncen at the empty chair, next er. “Of course .. .” Nina signified that he might have it, and the young oe Sd ibs the cushioned. seat, slo wit caneae eases ava _ “Thank you, miss,” said-the at- tendant; and the young man said: 0 P Te ‘ight “Ont fs Ten a touch of Celtic to it...

She was also struck with the fact, that, though his invalidism looked like a very permanent thing, there were none of the dis- contented, drawn lines, one so of- ten sees on the faces of cripples. He was dark, with a healthy brown] | skin and heavily lashed eyes, which Nina was certain were Irish blue... though they were lowered at the moment, and when the flare of his lighter went out, it was too dark to tell. He must have been in his early thirties. “Quite a party.” he remarked cheerfully. And Nina said: “Yes... and you sound as though you had come to it from very far off.” “Ireland ses Galwayysi-+is far offish, i: +. To... to come to a party, Something about the; way he said it attracted more of Nina’s at- tention than she had hitherto given to the conversation. She made an inquiring, encour- aging sound, ‘hich she hoped would urge the young man to con- tinue. It did.

I mean ... well, frankly, how can you want to travel so far to revisit this place?” The young man grinned. “Because that tumble wasn’t the biggest thing that happened to me, by any means. Fact it was the lesser of two tumbles.” Nina found herself tremendous- | ly interested. She said: “Ah-h-h.a simple direct way. And he said: “Right you are.

They were silent. ert The music had stopped for an intermission, and still David did not appear. Nina could see Hester and her partner across the floor. She spoke a few words, and left him, walking slowly—with her peculiar. jan- guid grace—toward the door of the conservatory. She had seen them. She came and stood in front of their two chairs. She smiled at Nina’s companion :;+ but the young man sat quietly, giving no sign of recognition. She M.

That will give you a numbey which is your han- |dicap and is subtracted from your ‘score. The handicap may be from 1 to 25. Then when everybody has finished the game, the starter will punch Col. Blind Bogey in the eye which will reveal the win- ning number; it may be anything from 50 to 110. The idea is that winning even if your score did go haywire and leave you high and dry. Besides, you might win a new high priced ball. The main trouble will be to find Mr. Otto Kirchheiner and have him give you the turkey; he claims it is not his turkey they are play- ing for but everyone in the club {wants to know what he intends to do with 5 of them; he can’t eat all of them on the three com- ing holidays. However, he says ‘he will see that you get the prize; if you don’t get a turkey he will settle for a duck or maybe a spar- row but if you get either of the latter instead of the former it will be generally known about town that he got your goose. The tournament is a one-day affair and if you don’t get in on it Thursday, Thanksgiving day, maybe the winner will invite you out to dinner on Sunday or some other day when he eats the first prize.
