Then Nola sauntered up and greeted Tally with a warmth that froze Thorn’s frown on his face, “I'm so glad you've come,” she smiled, her eyes twinkling as she noted the growing circle about them. “I can’t tell you how pleased I was when Jocelyn told me she had insisted on your being with us tonight. Has she introduced te to-everyone? No?” Nola turned to Lyn who-was palpabl; bewildered and annoyed. “Lyn, darling intro- duce your guests of the evening?

Jocelyn felt she had reached the bursting point when Eleanor Il- | lington invited Tally to the following afternoon. : “T’m afraid Mr. Mack will have to disappoint you,” she said, striv- ing for control. “He has cows and chickens and a truck garden to lock ae greed with i es,” he a wi imper- turbabie good humor, “I happen | to be a farmer, Miss Tilington. @ Mocking } “U/JHY, that’s marvelous!” Elea- | nor cooed, “I had no idea | ee were the young man from 'exas.” A blast from the orchestra halt- ed conversation. Without asking permission, Tally drew Jocelyn into his arms and danced her out on the floor. Geoffrey, a vexed ex- pression on his usually mild face, cut in. Over his shoulder Jocelyn watched Tally find Nola and sweep her, laughing, into the dance. here was a resentful twinge in the region of Lyn’s heart. § Geoff blurted, “Just what is the idea of asking him here?” “Because I wanted to.” “But why?

Tally had | known very well just why he had been invited. Once again he had thwarted her. Geoffrey, preoccupied, missed a step and trod on her small green slippers. “Hadn't you better call the veti- nary and find out the state of your pony’s health?” she suggested. “You certainly haven't your mind on dancing.” His eyes were uneasy. “Come outside with me, Lyn. I want to talk to you.” In the semi-darkness of a porch corner he lifted her chin with his finger-tips. “You do love me, don’t you, Lyn? I’ve never questioned it before, but now—” | _ “Then why now?” she asked lightly, absorbing all the dear fa- maliarity of him. This was the man she wanted for life.

He a aaah satisfied. His lips brushed her forehead. “I know our love affair has never been one of those wild, reckless things you read about in books and see in movies,” he said; “but that sort of thing isn't real, anyhow. We aren't that kind of people, are we, Lyn? We are restrained, well-bred. in- | telligent’ persons who plan our lives with our heads instead of our emotions.

He was twenty-one | drudgery of! drawing cold lines to exact) measurements. He sought to in- ject a little beauty and human | interest into the drawings. It; was his habit to complete his work and then liven it up by adding tiny porpoises, or flying fish, or perhaps the head of a} whale, or a flock of wheeling | gulls. ° In vain the pompous and ex- acting officials railed at the! young artist for presumption in decorating official topographical charts. Late in 1854 he was detailed to make an etching of Anacapa Is-; land in Santa Barbara Channel, | California. Two youngsters, J.) Young and C. A. Knight, shared ; the work of making the plate with him, but, students of art claim, the touch is entirely that of Whistler, When the drawing was finish- ed he idly added two little flights | of gulls wheeling over the east-' ern end of the island. The copper | plate was finished and printed in| the report of the Survey in 1855. | When the print appeared, Cap- | tain Benham, his superior, an- | gered by the decorative touches, | discharged Whistler. He went to Paris, bearing his orcher’s stylus, to become the} world’s most famous etcher. But for those wings flashing over the’ island, the world today might be without his famous “Mother’— and Washington would lack the greatest collection of his etchings in the world, housed in a mag- nificent museum not far from the place where he toiled for) $1.50 a day, and where he grav- | ed the map, a copy of which is to} hang with his famed “Annie Hayden” and “Weary”, “Nec-/} turn” and “Balcony”, valued at from $4,000 to $5,000 each. Whistler’s whimsicalities, and his hatred of conventions, which made him notorious in Paris and London later, was evident even in the days of his youth. Joseph Pennell, the famous art critic, ferent to any work except that which interested him and that it was impossible for him to, re- thing he drew. He loved to tease and to scan- dalize the martinets of the bu- reau. Captain Benham was Whistler’s father’s friend and the young artist was his protege; yet upon him Whistler directed his mischievous talents. Each artist was furnished with a magnifying glass to use in sratching the tiny lines on the copper plates. Whist- ler impishly etched his, own, por- trait in the form of a tiny devil on his glass, and when. Captain Benham looked through it to criticize a map, he beheld, in- stead of a coral reef, a mocking little devil that looked later, an elderly man called at Whistler’s famous studio in Paris. ‘bert New members welcomed were | Mrs. Corrine Wells: and Mrs. | Laura Mae Lowe. j After the study and business} meeting a social hour followed.
