If Dicky and I had been alone in the apartment when I hung up the receiver after listening to Lillian Gale’s cordial acceptance of my invi- tation, I am afraid we would have had another quarrel. I was hurt and irri- tated at the offhand manner in which Dicky had consulted her about the other guests. I felt that he had ig- nored me completely after I had sac- rificed my own inclinations and prej- udices and extended an invitation to the Underwoods for the next evening. I had intended to surprise him with my magnanimity. Instead, I told my- self bitterly, he had surprised me with his boorishness. But Katie stood waliting. Any plans for the next evening’s chafing dish supper must be made at once. “What would you like?” I turned to Dicky. “Don’t you bother about this sup- per, Madge.” His important manner made me smile in spite of my irrita- tion. “This chafing dish stunt is my specialty, and the crowd always want more whenever I'm the cook.” The Sandwiches a Sop. ‘““The sandwiches I'll leave to you,” Dicky rattled on. “I never bothered with those. Lil always brought some over whenever the crowd came over to the studio. Or you can fix the sandwiches yourself, but be sure you have a kick in them. Remember this crowd isn't a school teachers’ ice cream soda party.” If Dicky had carefully planned his words to wound and anger me soO that I would take neither interest nor pleasure in the coming of his friends, he could not have chosen them more wisely. I resolved, however, that I would control my anger. I felt that I detested the very thought of his friends and our proposed entertain- ment of them, but I told myself with bitterness that this was part of the price I had to pay for loving a man sc dissimilar in tastes to myself. “If you're going out, Katie,” he said, “stop at that little sea food mar- ket where you used to get the oysters, remember? and have him send over a bhundred—you know the kind, And don’t forget to stop at that delicates- sen where you used to get the stuff for me. You know the kind of cheese, two pounds, not too fresh, and some of those salty square crackers. Have you all the other stuff in the house ** Madge Inists on Almonds. “‘Oh, yes, Meester Graham, mus- tard, peppaire—all Kkinds, ta-bas-co, Woos—" “Don’t break your jaw, Katie,” ad- vised Dicky mischievously. “I'll take your word for it. Get two of those large bottles of stuffed olives, and some salted nuts—the girls always want those—and then whatever Mrs. Graham wants for sandwiches.” Katle turned to me inquiringly. For a moment I could not speak for! the lump in my throat. I seemed so completely out of it. I had had rosy dreams before I married of entertain- ing some of Dicky's friends at a little supper, and surprising them with self,” I said in my most dignified manner. “Those you get at any store are not fit to eat. Please listen care- fully to what I tell you, Katie, for I wish no mistake in the things you bring me. I want three pounds of the best almonds, the soft shelled ones, three small jars of anchovies, three cans of imported caviar, two boxes of sardines and three bottles of those tiny onions and three loaves of sandwich bread. We have plenty of butter in the house, I know. Her Thrift Brings Sarcasm. that any of those articles which are not opened are to be returned.” ‘All right,” said Katie, and went into the kitchen on the way out. Dicky backed away from me in pre tended awe. “Oh! descendant of thrifty Yankee traders, I bow to your wisdom. Take back what you have rot used! If I had all the unopened stuff I've presented to the janitor, T buy a car instead of riding in “No doubt,” I responded dryly. I really could not resist the temptation to aim a shaft, be it ever so feeble a one, at Dicky’s complacence. ‘“But, Dicky, what shall we give them to drink? Coffee? I shall need more than I have in the house.” Dicky raised his hands high in the air with an exaggerated gesture of despair. “Coffee—ye gods and little fishes! COffer that bunch coffee and nothing else, and you’d have to send thenr all home in ambulances.” Dicky’s “Temperange Basis” Party. I suppose my face expressed the dismay I felt at a possible repetition of the experience of the night before, for he patted my shoulder kindly and said reassuringly: “Don’t worry, little girl; we’ll keep this party on a strictly beer and alo basis. Then there won’'t be any trouble. Any one of the crowd, ex- cept Mrs. Lester and Vourself, could handle a keg of either without any trouble. As neither of you will prob- ably take more than a glass or two apiece anyway, the country will be safe. I have enough of both neces- sities in the house so you do not need to bother any more tonight about our party. I'll call the others up after a while. Come on over here anq talk to me.” He settled himsei? cushioned in the immense armchair, which we have intimate little talks we have had while seated in it—it is large enough tc hold us both comfortably—and held cut his arms for me. I never felt less like being caressed than I did that instant. Knowingly or not, Dicky had bruiscd my sensi- supper. another quarrel, so I came slowly toward Dicky.

POLI PLAYERS IN VOLUNTEER ORGANIST The revival of the rural comedy drama, “The Volunteer Organist,” by the Poli Players at RQ}&'S theater thig week is satisfactory and pleasing. While the main theme of the plot is melodramatic, sufficient comedy is interwoven ‘to relieve it of its tensity. This is the first play under the di- rection of Stage Director Ritchie and the Poli patrons have already seen that the same high standard of pro- ducing will be maintained under his direction as under his predecessors. The story of “The Volunteer Organ- ist,” centers about a little flock of typical rural characters who might be found in any small community in the days of long ago, Mr. Hollings- worth as the pastor and Miss Florine Tarr make the most of their roles and win the sympathy and admira- tion of the audience. Ben McQuarrie, as the village postmaster and holder of many mortgages, is good. Forrest Seabury is, of course, a vertible riot i of, laughter in the chief comedy role. The other Poli favorites have prom- | inent parts: The presence of Hugh McHugh with the Players this week, singing in the famous church scene. is pleasing to the many friends and admirers of the boy soprano of St. Joseph’s Cathedral, Master McHugh possesses a sweet, rich voice that is ranked with the best in Connecticut and his number is receiving an un- usual reception at each performance.

Which all goes to show that a little nerve helps many a man to get by. And, be it said, the stranger in this particular show is quite some character role.

A. Clapp, in reviewing the first presfintfllion of “In Old Kentucky" in Boston, as long ago as 1894 said, In the course of his review in the Boston Advertiser: “If Shakespeare were alive and here, he would find much to amuse and please him in this piece.” Twenty years after these words Wwere written “In Old Kentucky” came back to the same Boston playhouse, in which it scored its original suc- cess—the historic Boston theater— and demonstrated its wonderful drawing powers by crowding this capacious theater to the doors for many weeks during its stay last March and April. Mr, Clapp’s words i the light of the play’s successful stage career, were truy prophetic, for all America has been entertained for more than a decade by this wonder- ful drama of the blue-grass country. “In Old Kentucky” will be seen at the Lyceum on Friday and Satur- day of this week.

On the contrary, you should be heartily ashamed and do your best to meke him your friend again. To take a slightly different aspect of the case, people are often proud of their own dislikes becausq they have the feeling that to like everyone is the sign of a week character, Be- fore you praise yourself for showing strength of personality in not liking everyone, ask yourself, “What are my dislikes founded on?"” Are they founded on envy, on pp- centment of some slight, on some #fa grievance, or are they founded on the fact that the person is mean or disa- greeable, or has principles antagonis- tic to yours?
