Madge Schemes to Reunite Novl and Mary by Esploding the Graustarkian Dreams of the Royal Masqueraders Noel Veritzen was so bewildered and so thoroughly miserable that 1 felt the nced of something to re- licve thé eoberness of our conver sation. So | laughed lightly at his stammered objection to my sugges- tion that he play devoted swain to Princess Olina for the present. “Your father's son shouid be able t> act a role without any difficul ty," 1 told him. “I have not changed my mind about your marrying the princess. You are not going to take s0 absurd a step. But if you follow my advice you are go- ing to pretend to be her devoted ad nidrer as long as Mary 15 engagel to Prince Georges. You will also be as temperamental and American and masterful as you can feign to be. Will you let me tell you my rca- son for asking this of you?” “Yes, ves,” he said cagerly with a face suddenly brightened. “I think 1 begin to see.” “We older people 1 began, “have seen for some time that these two royal young people are living in a sort of Graustark— Prisoner-of-Zenda dream which cannot possibly last, but which is very real to them just now. You see, before the royal family of Transvania visited here, I'rince Georges and Princess Olina, while not sweethearts, were very good friends indeed, and both were bitter- ly resentful at her mother’s plan to marry her to George's uncle, the old and ugly king of Trees.

But when he found her, he also s¥w Mary, and partly from loyalty to Olina, partly because he also wished to stay over here, he report- od that he could not find the prin- cess, and has himseif managed to @et away from the ken of his own court. But it can only be a matter of time before they are discovered, end 1 would like to hasten matters #0 that they would go back volun- tarily before there is any publicity concerning them.” Noel shivered at the word, and T think he visioned Mary the center of the pitiless glare which any per- son possessing news value has to face in this hectic time., “Then you think these—betroth- als—will—hasten matters,” he raid. “I most certainly do,” I repried.

Then we shall be sure of immunity. And the whole thing rests upon your shoulders.

In a very short time they are quite at homo. It was so when they moved over to the Old Orchard. It was just their good fortune that almost at once they found a hole under the roots of an apple tree. It was just the place for a Meadow Mouse home. Jt didn’t take them a great while to gather enough grass to make a 1uirly good nest. They had to gath- er it under the snow. but it was there and they got it. Then Dannv was ready to go exploring. First, he worked around the foot of that tres. Presently he discovered another hole between the roots. Down he| popped. This hole went down deep- | er than the one where they had bullt their nest. Danuy soon found that the frost had not frozen the ground much, if any. That was be- cause there had been a heav of snow before hitter cold w and the snow had acted as a blan- ket. He could dig in that earth down there. There was a place where the earth was particalarly soft. 1t was as if some one had been there be- fore him. “I think T'll dig in here a little | way,” said Danny to limself. *I| might find something.” | So Danny dug and almost at onee | he broke throfigh into tunnel Then he stopped.

The most stogy and world weary of us gazed upward with the reflection of wonder on our faces. With most of us it takes a sight at lcast as extraordinary as this to make us cry the “oh” and “ah” of fresh delight. The dullness and boredom of the average adult makes him a sorry | companion for the young soul to |whom the whole world should be | fresh, curlous, wonderful. We go | walking with our ehild and all |about ua are sights and sounds that | we no longer sce or hear. The tra | fic roars, the workmen are engage in some vaguely dirty and unpleas- ant work, trucks are being loaded and unloaded, and the store win- dows sliow their too familiar wares. ! We have seen these things al- wa and have forgotten that once we wondered about them and were fascinated by their whercto and wherefrom. If we would be good companions for our children we must try to re- gard these familiar sights with their cager unspoiled eyves. We, too, must stand still and observe the traffie policeman command the tides of | traffic, sce the signals flash and i watch the cars obey. We niust see that the laborers are not just laboring, but are digging a vast hele, managing a derrick which lcoks like a mighty dinosaur, load- ing trucks of dirt and taking them away. We must wonder why they are digging, and what makes the der- rick go and where the trucks are taking their loads of dirt. We may stand outside the {cery store window and speculute as to where those dates came from, tand in what country that bunch of { bananas grew so big and yellow. sro- VARIEGATED FORMS FOR SPRING SUTS Tailored Tweed Ensemble Popi- ar But Materials Diller Widely Paris, Fcb, 25 UM—Materiala and forms of spring suits will be widely varied. Tallored tweed ensembles of last scason will continue to be worn. More elaborate versions of the suit form are also being shown, ranging from satin two piece to printed crepe de chine two and three piece costumes. Tweed suits are partial to brown and white and blue and white mix- tures. The newest of them have tuck-in, or stimulated tuck-in blouses of white crepe de chine or nagural = silks like shantung and tussore. Sometimes the blouses are sleeve- less. Most of them have some form of collar, with the round turn-over, which fits the base of the neck closely, favored ahove others. Piquet vests and collars and cuffs are shown by many designers both for wear on suits and tailored dresses of light or dark colors. Afternoon suits, which fnclude the satin and printed crepe de chine models favor black and wlite combinations. Jackets of such suits are short and usually of cardigan form over one piece dresses, which may simu- late skirt and tuck-in blouse. Printed designs are small and tend toward the Japanese, Long coats over afternoon dresses are the formal ensemble favored by many stylemakers, but they carry out the suit idea almost as meticulouly as the short jacketed costumes. Some of the newest en- semble coats have elaborate ap- pliques of broadcloth on chiffon base. The broadcloth pattern is so carefylly carried out that chiffon underneath shows like delicate in- crustations no wider than an cighth of an inch. Suit colorings are varied, running the gamut of yellows, light reds and greens through blues, blacks and browns. Silk suits nearly al- ways appear in black or dark Dlue, although one or two important de- signers show vivid purple ensem- bles for formal afternoon wear, YOUNGER BRITONS MAP OWN CAREERS Sons of Famous Men Making Good on Their Own Merits Tondon, Feb. 25 (A—The sons of Britain's famous men have spurned the shackles of reflected glory and shown a decided preference to make names for themselves, Anthony Asquith, son of the late ex-premier, is one of England’s best krown film producers.
