Love’s Awakening By Adele Garrison Beliet! That Charies Owea Is In. Volved in the Plot to Assassinate Prince Georges, Deepens in Lil- lan's Mind *How long will he keep it up?” Lillian repsated my query slowly, and I guessed that she herself had mot yet fully completed, the inter- pretation she had put upon Charles Owen's: acivities, as disciosed to us by Marion's garrulous letter. “Until this affair of Georges has been settled one way or the other,” she said at last. “Of courss he expects it to culminate in only ene thing, the assaasination of the young heir to the throne of Treés, and I am sure he has planned to keep up this borabard- ment of Carolyn and Marion with yemembrances until he receives the news of the prince's death. Then he figures he can stop, for he will have established an eftectual 8libi. “I don't quite get it,” T said, voicing & doubt which had been hovering in my mind. “Mr. Owen might buy all those things in one place, might he not, and have them mailed from the cities from which he has asent them?” “True for you, oh Sherlockia!" Lillian, gibed, “but I'm sure he {sn't depending upon those postal marks entirely, Depend upon it, in the places where he has mode those purchases, he has so impressed him- sel? upon the people in the shop that he will have ample witnesses as to his presence there upon the dates he wishes. Then with the corroborative evidence of the postal marks, the letters he has written his niece, and her testimony and Marion's concerning the receipt of the things, he will have a bullet- proof alib| “Remember!” she went on, “he fsn't dodging the police now. If he ware, it there was a dragnet out for him, be couldn't leave a trail like that. He's simply keeping ahead of things, in a mighty foxy way, if you ask me." I nodded, for I shared her opin- fon of the ability possessed by Sam- uel Brixton's half-brother. “Of course, 1 may be all wrong.” Yillian went on, “and he may have nothing to do with this attempe upon Georges' life. But I can't help believing that he sent word of Georges' whereabouts to the gang. 1—wish—I—didn't believe it."” Fear for Marion Her voice was like a shudder, and 1 knew why the idea of Charles Owen's possible complicity in the attempt to murder Prince Georges 80 repugnant to her.

Burgess Already he has won the fight Who knows his cause just and right. —Happy Jack Squirrel Robber the Rat sat at the en- france to his hole beneath the old stone wall and watched Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel and his family ther around their breakfast ta- le, which was a big flat stone In the old wall. Robber’s eyes grew red with anger. For several days he and the Squirrel family had been quarreling over the. food put out every morning by Farmer Brown's Boy. 8o far, Robber had had the best of it. He had always succeed- ed in putting to flight the Squir- rels. Once or twice they had sur- prised him and made him run by the suddenness of their attack. But elways he had returned like a fury | and in the end they had fled. 80 now/ Robber, as he watched them, was preparing to rush them again. He noticed that they did not appear to be hungry. Instead of eating they had gathered together and seemed to be talking something over. I wonder what they are up to now,” thought Robber. As if in answer, Mrs. Happy Jack and the four half-growh members ©of the family left the old wall and climbed up in the nearest tree, Jeaving Happy Jack to eat his breakfast alone. Happy Jack set- tled himself as if he meant to stay. It was evident that that was a good breakfast. “Only one,” muttered Robber. *I'll put that fellow to flight in short order. When he sees me com- ing he'll waste no time in getting away.” %0 Robber rushed fn his usual savage manner. Then he recelved ne of the greatest surprises of his fe. Instead of turning tail and running, Happy Jack sprang to meet him. There was nothing of the eoward about Happy Jack. The glare in his eyes was quite as fierce as the glare in the eyes of Puvbber the Rat. They came together with Yaws. snapping and hindfeet kick- ing and ripping. My such a fight as that was! Robber the Rat is a no- torious fighter. He has been heard to say that he would rather fight than eat. He hadn’t the least fear of Happy Jack. In fact, he had al- ‘ways thought of Happy Jack Squir- rel as more or less of a coward. He had seen little Chatterer the Red Squirrel drive his big cousin all through the Old Orchard. What he didn’t know was that Happy Jack ran, not from fe: but to try to ger away from annoyance. Up in the nearest tree, Mrs. Happy Jack and the four young Bquirreis danced with excitement as they looked on. Over and nver rolled Happy Jack and Robber the Rat. They fell off the wall to the ground, but never once did they separate. They bit and kicked and scratched. Now, those long front teeth of Happy Jack's are sharp, and Rob- ber the Rat soon found this out. His own teeth were sharp, but somehow he couldn't seem to get The !!urt Story Stndlut Wo-u not bear the thought of her idolized. carefully-sheltered daughter being brought into even such innocuous contact with the desperate man as his quasi-relationship to Marion’s voommate had entailed. “For my part, 1 think you're painfully coastructing a mountain out of the well-known molehill,” I said with smiling mendacity, for I awiftly had decided that there was no shadow of use in encouraging Lillian to hold this belief, which. however, I secretly shared. “You haven't a shadow of real proof that the man even knows Prince Georges is in any danger of attack. It isn't like you to jump to conclusions. Why don't you reserve judgment upon Mr. Owen?" 8he looked at me wit: hope in her eyes that' I felt my throat constrict with longing for the power to dispel her anxiety. To Warn Harry “I've rarely known you to be ‘mistook in your judgments,’” she said, with a waa little smile, “'there- fore I'm going to stop worrying my head about Charles Owen. But—I | ought to show this letter to Harry —don’t you think ?"” “Of course” I answered, even as I uttered the words I was frantically wondering how I could | get hold of Harry Underwoood be- fore ahe had an opportunity to show him the letter. If I could warn him to add a pretended disbelief in Charles Owen's activities to the doubt I just had given her, 1 was sure her mind would be at case con- cerning the man. unless, of course, some unforeseen development should definitely connect him with the attack upon Prince Georges. With a worried expression, which 1 hoped was plausible, I rose from my chair. “Do you need me any longer?” I asked. "I must get over into our apartment as soon as possible. Dicky has been unpacking over there, and you know what that means.” “Being bird's best in r. I have a faint idea,” she “Go on with whatever's on your mind. TI've unburdened mine to you and feel much eased. I think T'll take a little nap to cele- brate.” “A mighty good idea.” T told her with outward approbation and se- cret jubilance, for one-half of my problem was &olved. Now, to geot hold of Harry Underwood before she waked!

I, June 24— in such torrid weather—be sure you are surf-fitted with chic and then dive into the ocean! It is surprising how many speedy packings have taken place in New York this past week. Apparently it is never too early to be hot enouzh | to drive folks to the beach. With Park Avenue looking like the pro-| verbial deserted village, it is no shock to find Southampton well fill-, ed already. The first person I saw was Mrs. | Oliver Rodgers just coming out| of the surf after a swim with her husband. Her swimming suit was |extremely chic. exemplitying mal new, fuller modes. It was blue| and chartreuse, with the latter a| deep pointed front yoke and the| |shorts cut on much fuller l\rrsw than last season. In the Chic Picture Other smart looking women at |the Beach Club these last few | days included Mrs. Philip Kip| Rhinelander, the lovely Mrs. Ken-| neth O'Brien who is stunning in | o |her beach togs and Millicent Ro‘v‘_ ers (Salm) Ramos, who spent the | | week-end here, | I'm thinking hopefully that | mayebe silk stockings may do down in price soon. sizing up the in- creasing numbers of &mart young | |things and not so young who are sponsoring the bare-legged craze. I distinctly like the fad, especi- ally when trim-limbed women em-| brace it. Cathleen Fox, for in- stance, looked charminly cool | and summery in a one-piece whits | {linen frock with no beads or other | extras and her bare feet slippd into white pumps. A Study in White Virginia Thaw is another. She |is one who wears white admi |ably, with her dark hair and her |suntan. I saw her in a sweet lit- |tle white silk one-piece frock with la double jabot collar and kic pleats in the skirt, front and bac She wore a medium-sized whi felt hat and brown and whi | shoes over her stockingless feet. | Yellow, which Palm Beach made | lso much of. is having its day in| | Southampton. Every smart woman | has a yellow streak or two in her | wardrobe. Mrs. Orson Munn car-| |ried off the palms for the most | pleasing yellow outfit 1 have seen | thus far. | The two-piece frock was of a soft, clear yellow flat crepe, with | [the skirt pleated in French box | pleats and the overblouse sleeveless. |She wore a bright orange kerchis! scarf, knotted on one shoulder, ani [the neatest, chicest little white 1-'g-i | horn, turned down on one side and | |turned up into a little rolled edge on the shorter side. It was banded | lin orange. She wore short whi‘e |gloves and a vivid orange beal bracelet. Others in Yellow Others featuring yellow to notice- | |able extent are Mrs. Morton Smith, | | Mary Alice Waller and Mrs. Johu[ | Warner. the former Emily Smith. | | The last two wear sweater suits | |varying shades of yellow, with | pleated skirts. I saw Mrs. Smith ir\l |a pale vellow frock and deep yellow | |silk coat that had a rounding meck, | \nu collar and hung very simply and | | straight in unbuttoned fashion. White hats bloom everywhers, many straws. Phyllis Thompsoa wears many different ones. One es- pecially nice on her rolls its brim a little bit all around. but so con- | servatively that it looks as if it were a straight brim. She is one | of the many who prefer oxfords in | sports colors and combinations of materials rather than sandals. | Afternoons see many chiffons, | prints of every description in the world though I must say the print that is not just a large flower wins.

We know that uften | when a youngster is on the verge of | | tears we are able to check the storm | with & few clear and simple re marks. But most of us have found that there are occasions when the rem- edy does not work. Sometimes the explain to the child why he may not do so and, or why he | must do thus and so, the more ve- | hement, incoherent and disorgan- ized is his response. There are cersin tvpes of chil- dren who take their emotions morc‘ violently than others, who in times of stress cannot accept the fact | which balks their wishes. The problent with them not to make them understand but to accept emotionally an unpalatable reality. One evening after supper Datsy discovered that she had lost her| dolly’s stocking in the park.
