CHAPTEW H ' * ' "THAT VULGAft tlTTtfi BLONDE" Kitty Packard, with a beautiful bed-jacket over her nightdress, movie magazines, boxes of candy and gaudily - jacketed novels strewn about her, looked at the room which she had just had done over in ultra modernistic style in white, cream and buff, and decided to have it redecorated in the old pink satin style when Tina, the maid, entered to announce that Mrs. Oliver Jordan was on the wire. All of Da nPackard's millions bad failed to win for his wife social recognition, aitid when Kitty learned that the purpose of the call was to invite her and her husband to dinner at the Jordans, whom she had met at the races, to meet Lord.and Lady Ferncliffe, her delight knew no bounds. Here at last was social recognition! But when Dan returned and she tbjd him of the invitation he curtly refused t<> go. Dan, something of a "wolf of Wall 8treet", had certain scruples. He'd been trying foj> two t years to get hold of a line of shipping like Oliver Jordan's. "He's sending jne a full list of his stock-holders -- I buy up what I n,eed and it's all over but the shout ing. Dan Packard owns the best shipping line between here and the tropics, and Mr. Oliver Jordan is out on his earl I can't go and eat his dinner! Business is business, but I can't go walking into his house." But Kitty '8 socially ambitious little soul was set on going to that dinner, and she attacked her husband like the vulgar little termagant that she was, without result, save for abusive retorts from Dan. She started up from the ebalse longue il, dismay.as tarry said: v "I'll be very blad to come, Mr* Jordan. Of course, I know Carlott* j Vance." He hung np and turned, smiling*' to Paula "I'll see you again -- at your mother's dinner to the Fern-.; cliffes." . '«Why Larry, you must be insane! j Ernest will be there. You seem t#;. forget I'm engaged to him.' Larry Renault, still youthful look* ..t ing despite his forty-odd years, mad# j light of her fears. "I can't go around dodging people." _ >r "Then promise me one thing^y Larry. Don't drink At mother's.'1' You must make a gOod impression." ! "Oh, for God's sake, Paula, don't"' get maternal! A man can take a drink or two." She cast herself down on tier knees" by Larry's chair. "All right, my darling, my darling! Let's talk about something' else. Tell me everything you've done since yesterday. Only first, I want to be kissed, and kissed, and kissed!" "My sweet 1 My marvelous little girl!" said Larry, taking h^r in his arms." "1 worship you, I adore you." "Oh, Larry, darling! Wouldn't it be just lovely if we could stay here all evening -- pretend it was our house...." She broke off as there came a discreet knock at the door, went to a mirror, arranged her mussed hair, put fresh lipstick on her lips, as Larry admitted a bell-boy with a bottle of Scotch. Larry felt in his, pockets, made a wry face. " Paula, I haven't a bit of change. "My s x a e t l ' My narvelout litllt g i r l !

The nature of thgse mysterious, penetrating "super X-rays" has been In dispute ever since they wpre discovered by Dr. Robert A./Millikan, noted Pasadena (Calif.) physicist. He says they are gamma rays like those of radiunr, but much harder and„more penetrating; that they come from far out in space, as a result of electrons and protons meeting out there to create net^ matter. Prof. A. H. Compton, of the University of Chicago, who or ganized a world-wide study of these rays, claims they are electrons and that liis recent studies and measurements in various parts of the world support his\ theory that they are Electrical id character. He also claims their "intensity varies with the time" of day and ftitensity of sunlight Recently Prof. E. Regener, of Stuttgart university, Stuttgart, Germany, sent up a weather balloon, carrying recording instruments only, to a height of 17 miles. These instruments showed that ahove 85,000 feet cosmic rays diminish in intensity. This, of course, contradicts the generally accepted theory of cosmic rays and further muddles the mystery. Doctor Millikan has been making airplane flights to high altitudes in army air corps bombers carrying his new electroscope which records and measures the rays. The One Hundred and Eleventh, observation squadron of the Texas National Guard is co-operating with Rice Institute physicists in making high altitude flights to measure the mysterious rays. And scientists at some twenty stations throughout the world are making cosmic ray observations--Pathfinder Magazine. ; •' YOLO At kmlf .m»vte ma 9 a una •* the bed. Iar§tb*x «/ cM»c»late$ .. JCitty was itill in bed. tried her baby-talk wiles, all to no effect, until she mentioned that it was to meet Lord and Lady Ferneliffe. "Ferncliffe!" exclaimed Dan.

I'll buy up that Jordan stock through dummies -- use Baldridge and Whitestone -- fellows like that -- keep my name out of It. What a break I I'm off to Washington -- called there by the President. He wants to consult me about the affairs of the nation. He'll probably offer me a cabinet position." Boastful and breezy, Packard hastily prepared for his trip to Washington; pecked at Kitty's cheek and took his departure. Scarcely was he out of the apartment when Tina announced that Dr. Talbot was in the lobby. Kitty called for her pearls, a new bed-jacket, Dr. Talbot's book on " Aspects of the Adult Mind", and thus prepared, waited for her caller. He was very professional m his talk until the maid had withdrawn. Then Kitty . fiung her arms about him. Oh, Wayne, darling!" Reluctantly at first, Dr. Talbot responded to the embrace, then grabbed her passionately in hisferms. Paula Jordan waited while Larry Renault, highball glass in hand, answered the telephone call to his apartment in the Hotel Barclay. A silver-framed photograph of Paula was on the table by the telephone, fclie admired Larry'b actorly figure and face.

When the boy had been tipped and discreetly withdrawn, Paula asked- Larry about the play in which 1)4 . was to appear to bolster up his repu*" tation which had suffered when the •, 'talkies" came in and disastrously affected the careers of many big film*--" stars of the silent picture era. 'The play's not much, but the part is interesting. It's practically the only male parjt in the play." "There's the beach-comber--" "He has one Little scene and I dominate that." He poured himself! & drink and raised the glass. Paula protested at his drinking so. much and they were soon in midst) of a lover's quarrel. It ended in he*.' : complete surrender. 8he was terribly in love and bent upon telling Ernest she could not keep her prom* ise to marry him, sick of hiding hor love for the great screen star of the silent days. " Ernest is just the sort of man you should marry, Paula. You've known me .a month. It's been a beautiful month. I. love you, as much as I can love any woman, but it isn't real love any more. There have been too many women. I 've been in love a hundred times -- married to four women. Not divorced from the last* \ ou 're young and fresh. 1 'm burned out. Go .back to Ernest This is the first decent thing 1 have done in my life." She kissed him, cried a little, pro4 testing her love, het detrmination tell Ernest, tfet parents, but toolc her departure when Max Kane,„ Larry's agent, arrived. As she left the apartment, she saw Carlotts, \ ance get off the elevator and enter ^ u room on the same floor. 8he hoj «be had not pceii seen. How Thunderstorms Are Distinguished by Science Can you tell the difference between the two kinds of thunderstorms which igcience distinguishes? In a recent announcement of the feather bureau JPi*. W. J. Humphreys tells Low to make this distinction. The difference in the two kinds of storms is wind. One kind of thunderstorm happens only when the day is more or less windy. The other kind happens only at times when there is little or no wind. Both kinds, however, are created by cold air above and hot, moist Jllr below. The warm air rises Into the cold air where the cold condenses some of the moisture In the rising air, causing rain, lightning and other Storm features. Where the difference fcetween the two kinds comes in is In how these strata of cold and warm air are provided. The windy kind pccurs when winds drive an upperlayer of cold air across a layer of Warm air near the ground, while the calm type usually happens when heating of the ground by the sun creates, a layer of overheated air which then rises into the cold air because tt fee* tomes lighter.--Exchange.

Scientists have found, for example, that diseases can travel through tho air at what is considered an unusual speed, thirtyfive feet in five minutes, according to Popular Mechanics Magazine. It has been known for a long time that micro- organisms are carried about on droplets of moisture, but Dr. Merl G. Colvin, of Yale medical school, has found that at least one group of contagious disease can travel independently. Contrary to the general belief, these diseases move fast, that is, fast for micro-organisms so small that the. common microscope does not show them. In addition to measuring the speed, Doctor Colvin found that the; germs remained in the dust of his room for eighteen daya R«4-Win(ed Blackbirds The red-winged blackbird Is considered the most abundant and most widely distributed native bird in North America. The male, with his scarlet epaulets and his cheery musical o-kalee song, receives a Joyous welcome from the bird lover. When large flocks forage over newly planted grain fields, farmers are not Bo likely to give them a. welcome. Growth of Baby Crabs A baby crab is less like an adult crab in structure than a tadpole is like a frog when It is born, and It does not achieve the familiar crab pattern until it Is about a month old. From that time on for a period of sik months or more it grows so rapidly that It has to discard its outgrown shell about twice a month. At the end of that time it will have become a fair sized crab. How Hay Favor Spreads A public health broadcast says that the offending substance, in the majority of cases of seasonal- hay ver, is the pollen from the wind-borne pollinated plants, which includes many of the grasses, weeds and trees. The season of attack, therefore, usually corresponds with the time of the year in which the respective pollen of these plants is being produced and blown into the air. For example, hay fever symptoms caused by Bermuda grass pollen occur in May, June and July ; from the Russian thistle pollen, in July, August and September; while from the rag-weed pollen, the latter, part of Angust, September and October. • • How We Gel 'ttferd "Caddy" The name caddy, referring to a tea caddy, is derived from "kati," an old Malay word meaning pound. Early tea imports from china came in a Ilk tie package or box called a kati, in spite of its holding over a pound. From that the tea receptacle, regardless of its size and the^gifiount it held, was called a caddy. How Handicapping la Done A handicap is an allowance of time, distance, or weight made to inferior competitors in a sport or race. In horse racing extra weight is imposed on the superior horse in accordance with known previous performances and with regard to age and sex of the nnlmnla on<rn<TMl.

And when you change, remem ber this: The greatest cause of high oil consumption in automobile engines is sludge sludge that fouls filters, makes valves sluggish so you lose gasoline power and mileage, and causes rings to stick and pump oil Also remember this: You can keep sludge out of your motor by using IsoiVis "D", the anti sludge motor oil. Bccause it does not sludge, lso>Vis "D" keeps rings lively and free, reduc ing oil consumption to the minimum. That's why Iso-Vis "D" users use less oil--add fewer quarts between drains.
