Office Phone 410 b ,bwn sald T had changed a great deal DOROTHY™S CHRISTMAS | AY, believe, me, the fellows were glad to see me back again,” said George Porter to the family at the din- ner table, “Professor Parr said I looked Hke a col- lege man, and all the fel- since September.” George had just arrived a few hours before for his first vacation back from college. He had, indeed, been very anxious to get home again amcng his old friends. The weary hours on the train he had whiled away by telling the other boys about all the dances he was going to at- tend with Dorothy Smyth, classy girl from Bryn Mawr.” In the course of the dinner Doctor Porter could not but take down his son a littlee. The all-important fra- ternity man was roasted considerably for his overbearing manner. However, George took it all with the stolc dig- nity of the captain of the freshman football team. As a matter of fact dad sank considerably in his son's estimation. After dinner George's older sister Mary asked him whether he was go- ing to call up Dorothy for the Christe mas dance at the Hadley’s. “Aw, pshaw, here a fellow works his head off at school,” sald George in his best blase, “he comes home for a little rest, and then you expect him to dance. And half the girls at 8chool have it on Dorothy anyhow.” “What are you going to give her for Christmas?” said Mary, hiding a smile, for she knew just how George felt about Dorothy. “Gee, I never thought about that; and I've but ten cents to my name.” This last statement showed just how good a time he had with his fraternity brothers the last days be- fore vacation. “Make it C. O. D, Georgie. Call on dad; he'll give all you'll need.” “Not on your life,” came back George, “a college man must be able to_shift for himselt. Why, halt the feliows work thefr way. I'll go out to earn the money myself tomorrow. Besides, I've been roasted enough.” True to his word George Porter was out early the next morning looking for remunerative toil. A window-card in a large cafeteria, “Help Wanted,” arrested his attention. He strolled up to the fat proprietor, seated behind the cash register, and honored him by offering him a college man’s services. “Any experience in the kitchen?” he was asked. In spite of the fact that the total of George’s kitchen experience con- sisted of a few evening's fudge-mak- ing at Dorothy's, he said boldly, “I sure have.” “Where?” This confused him a little, er—at a friend's last winter.” “So you've been at Friend's cafe? Well, I'll take you. A dollar and a half a day and meals. Just go to the kitchen and get a white coat.” George had bluffed and he was go- ing to make good the blufft. He rushed around at a great speed send- ing the soiled dishes to the kitchen. Aocidently he picked up half a plece of lemon ple the owner of which had Just gone to the ice water faucet to replenish her lass, “Walt a lnnute with my ple, if you please,” sald the old maid victim of George's zeal. “No, I won't take anything back out of the mess on your tray, either. You go and get me another at your expense.” The hero of many a football battle here showed a yellow streak. He bought the pie for the injured guest. Probably due to his anger over “the old hen” he next scattered the silver all over the floor. Without the least thought of santtation he replaced it on the stand. Suddenly the boss told him to carry all the silver to the kitchen to have it washed. Here the angry Irish cook gave him a hot re- ception, “Why didn’t you just take it to the kitchen and back. The guests would have thought it was clean, but now they kicked to the boss. Take a boy, he has no idea of cleanliness.” Christmas shoppers coming into the cafeteria reminded George of his gift. One dollar-fifty was not much, but he would not ask dad for more under any consideration. Finally he decided on something that has been the last re- source of many a young man—a box of candy. A whole day with soiled dishes, half-consumed food, and scolding was bad enough, but the worst came when two of George's pals came in during the afternoon. Like a malden sur- prised at her dip at the lprlnc. George went into hiding. The man- ager happened to see him ducking beghind the counter, and asked him, what ailed him. “Pst, don't let them see me!” sald George. “Who? Are the police after ye?” sald the manager and grabbed him by the collar. This was too much for George. He bowled over the manager and rushed “some “Aw— (D, FLA., DEC. 21, 1 ——————————— v ELEGRAM LAK ELAND, , SN —— WWWW OISO E SIS SPIOLII0: 0 o D into the kitchen. His friends laughed and thought their part. The manager followed George. “Hm,” he sneered. friends from the swell side of the fence. Well, Archibald, you can hide | your pretty face in the kitchen after this. Just go and work the dish- washer.” George never had been so mad in his life. He would have “busted the fathead’s bean,” but for Dorothy’s sake he stayed. Besides.he was no quitter, but worked like a hero at whatever work he had set out to do. No Satan in the inferno could have felt more anger at the sinners he was immersing in the flery pools than George did toward the innocent dishes of which he immersed bucket after bucket in the patent dish-washer to the impatient shouts of the girls, “Shoot more dishes, Archibald!™ Finally at six o'clock, tired and sweated, George left the place. He felt just a bit doubtful about his chances; “What would she say?” — When George was about to leave Dorothy at the door of the Smyth mansion after the dance on Christmas night, she turned to him to say, “Of all my presents I liked your box of candy best. It was the sweetest thing. And Donald says he saw you working for it. You shouldn’t go to 80 much trouble just for me, George.” “Trouble, Dorothy? Don’t mention it.” And with somewhat of an effort XXX ., o W&M d “0'0 “l Sure Have.” he added, “I had lots of fun; I was working for you.” besides, Dorothy’'s head sank just a little lower. “Dorothy,” sald George, softly, “couldn’t I work for you all my life?” George placed his hands on Doro- thy’s fur cap and pressed back gen- tly. Her head rose slowly and their lips met for one long second. Then George fastened his fraternity pin on her gown, the emblem which the rules permitted to be given only to “flancees and wives.” (Copyright, Western Newspaper Union.) GOWN DESIGNED IN AMERICA Of White Faille and Silver Brocade, It Achieved Distinct Triumph in New York Exhibition. This charming evening gown 18 called “La Femme a la Mode.” It is of white faille and silver brocade, embodying all the points of the “Louis Philippe” model harking back to the 1860’s. The decolletage of the gown is marked stiffly by a plaiting of white faille which makes almost a straight line across the bosom and shoulders. This gown, quaint and beautiful, was perhaps the most decided style exhib- fted. The gown was auctioned off November 4 by Mrs. Theodore Roose- velt, Jr, the money thus gained be- ing donated to the war relief fund as are all the proceeds of the fete ar- ranged by America's society leaders and “vogue” at the Ritz-Carlton, New York. “Some of your 914 Chris POBGTRTO FODBHEEBFOIAF OB TB IO SO S S SO LD H RO Just CARVING SETS RO Bl BB § Lake error Hotel MRS.
