She is making one of By Barbara Webb) Copyright by Public Ledger not be with them, Adelaide said very little about including Jimmy in their evenings and Jimmy had to. content himself for a time with talking to Janet op the telephone, not a very satisfactory way of wooing her, but the best he cond do for the present. After much -gearch, during which she lived with Butch in an expensive hotel, Adelaide found an apartment on Riverside Drive which suited her, Janet was aghast at the rent asked and expected Butch to refuse. In- stead he merely said, "800 smackers a month?" laughed his boisterous laugh and went on, "That's easy. you can't spend it all, Baby, no mat- ter how hard you try." There were eight rooms to furnish and Adelaide reveled in an orgy of ornate and expensive furnityre, add- ing all the bric-a-brac that she loved. She installed a man and his wife to take care of the place and then complained because Butch always wanted to go out to dinner, The sight of Adelaide's extravagance sobered Janet, She could not help contrasting the results Adelaide ob- tained from her haphazard buying with Mildred's quietly rich and beau- tifully comfortable apartment. She found, too, that she had to be very firm with Adelaide to escape a deluge of presents. Finally she told her] friend flatly that she would accept | nothing whatever, would send back | any presents Adelaide gave her, and | although Adelaide grumbled a bit, | she accepted Janet's dictum as the! { price of her friendship.

Now that Adelaide is back and safely married Jimmy hopes to ba able to speak of love to Janet, . "You Qught to Get Married" But the days that immediately fol- lowed Adelaide's return were busy ones for Janet. Adelaide had earte balnche irom Butch in the matter of an apartment and its furnishings and wanted Janet's advice in everything she did. Butch had put a smart little town 'car with a chauffeur at her disposal and Janet felt very luxur- ious as she drove around with Ade- laide during her noon hour, or looked at apartments in the evening. Ade- laide had come back to the office, wearing the most expensive of silk ensembles and flashing the diamonds that Butch had given her, to say good-bye to her fellow workers. Every one wished her well, for Adclaide had been a popular girl, and there was some envy of her improved standing, Mr, Morris had taken his wife with him when he went back on the road, believing that a trip would do her good and would also give Adelaide and Butch a chance to get through their honeymoon without any interference. Both father and mother were reconciled to Adelaide's marriage, even boasted of it, but Janet often wondered if they knew the real truth about Butch's occupa- tion. The grils saw yery little of Butch, for he was busy, Adelaide explained, ness which often occupied him until far into the night. Since Butch could t business, gbusiz | she did she would yield to his at-| traction for her. The sleepless week | before Adelaide's return, the round of shopping with Adelaide and the] burden of trying to avoid thoughts of Jimmy pulled her down. She lost weight and seemed pale and listless even to herself. Adelaide noticed it and assigned a cause to it in her own mind. She determined to remedy it if she could. One night, when Butch was away and the two girls were alone in the big living room of Ade- laide's apartment she said to Janet, "Don't vou think this beats living out in Brooklyn and going to the office every day?' ' Janet smiled, "Yes, it does--I1'm awfully glad for you, Adelaide." "And Butch is wonderful to me," Adelaide wen on. "He gives me every single thing I want and then fuses because I don't spend more money. We're crazy about cach other too, fanct. Being married to a fel. fow like Butch is the absolute ber- ries, Janet." "Yes, 1 suppose it is, sented. "You ought to fall in love and get married. Janet, It's grand to be married--why don't you?" I'll have to find a husband first," Janet answered. "The trouble with you is that you wont look for a man," Adelaide de- clared. "Why don't you let Bucth bring in some of his friends? . He's offered to, you know. He says you've t a lot of class, more eyen than I ave, 'and that he's sure some rich " Janet as- guy he knows could fall hard for you'if you'd just let Hin". ° | of the affair in folksongs, folkdances and handicraft work of which a spegial exhibition will 'be held by the Alberta Branch of the Canadian Handicrafts Guild At the previous two festivals in Winnipeg and hegina some astopishingly beautiful work was shown and interest will be stimulated at Calgary | Mounties with peasant types of strobg personality. next, a score of nations will contribute to the = crafts Guild, Someidea of their beauty may be gather- * wood sculpture, ed by the above lay-out which shows Rumanian spin- ner at work on a dress similar to the one, beautifully embroidered, she is wearing; Swedish weavers also attired in native costume; and some examples of among them a couple of the Centenarians That Palm Goes to Indian Janet was silent. How could she tell Adelaide that although she liked Butch, admired him for his gencrous treatment of Adelaide, believed with Jimmy that Butch was square, ac- cording to his lights, the thought of marrying such a map herself was entirely out of the question ? "Espe- cially," Janet said to herself, "espe- cially after knowing Jimmy." As though reading her thoughts Adelaide continued accusingly, " know what's the matter with you, Janet. You're crazy aboout Jimny Warren, but you won't admit it, Butch thinks 8o, too, and he thinks Jimmy is a prince. He even tried | to get Jimmy to go into business with him and make some money, but the darn fool wouldn't do it, But Batch says you either ought to marry him and be poor. or give him up and get vourself a rich husband, You think I'm awfully dumb sometimes, Janet, and I know I'm not as refined as| you are, but you can't tell me the! only reason you don't marry Jimmy Warren isn't that he's poor--dirt poor, and you can't stand marrying a man like that." Janet's checks burned.. "I do like Jimmy, I like him ,an awful lot, but don't know-why yow say 1 could marry him if I wanted to, he's never asked me."
