J'OYCB peei>ed hurriedly Into boxes and drawers In a last minute seardli for things she might have overbooked in her packing: important little things, accessories upon whi-cli hung the individuality or charm of many of her frocks. The task completed, she put her compact, lipstick ami handkerchief into her handbag, and tucked It under her arm, as she gave herself a final admiring survey in the long cheval glass. - Her mind was not wholly upon, herself, she was thinking of th&"cbst.uiue ball to be held that night at the Country club,, wishing she had waited to name her going-away day until after the date for the ball had been announced. Not that she cared anything about the dance. It was Jim, : ' She tried not to wonder whom he would take, with whom life would dance most and sit out dances. Of course he" would do these things. They had both agreed that they would go on doing the things they had been doing. Go on living their own lives right up to their wedding day. They both had had a modern slant on things, were both above petty Jealousies; and the friendships they had made were not to be broken just because they, were to be married. The gently stirring breeze wafted sounds of laughter up^to her. Her friends were gathering on the lawn to see her off. Hurrying below she stood beside Jim on the long shadowy vet^ anda, looking Irresistible In her cool white linen ensemble, as she answered a nod here, a wave of hat or handkerchief there. Her eyes fell upon Betty's new maroon roadster, and Betty, herself, waving a hand at her. Behind Betty's car was Anita's green coupe. Anita on the running board, her shining taffy colored^curls blowing in the breeze. Joyce1'eyed" them askance. Betty and Anita were both in love with Jim, or SO it had been hinted to her. She4obked at Jim, followed the direction of hfci^gaze. There stood Helen. , Once he had been engaged to Helen. It was rumored that a silly quarrel had terminated that romance. Such a trifling thing should have made no difference to people In love, which, of course, they were. Jim had never mentioned lleleu's name. But he wouldn't. He rarely ever spoke" of people. Joyce felt dizzy. -She had never before realized how many beautiful gtiTS there were in Hampton, and Jim, the most desirable young man In their set still unmarried. She had often wondered which of the lovely creatures would have finally won him, had she not happened to come there. "Time's up! Only fifteen,minutes left to make your train," came the voice of her father from the baggage laden car parked at the gate. Jim caught her hand and they raced down the walk and crowded into the front seat with him. As they sped along, Joyce thought of a trip to come. A trip In Jim's car, with old shoes tied on behind and rice showered over everything. Or would there be such a trip coming If she went away on a long visit now? She was not certain she wanted to make this extended vis- It Her happy anticipation at the thought of It was gone. With affected cheerfulness she settled herself into her compartment, while Jim and her father stowed away her luggage and piled magazines and candy within easy reach. As she kis&ed them goodby, she choked down the lump in her throat. Would Jim be taken home in her father's car? If not, which of the cars would take him home, or perhaps Somewhere else-- and where? v At the next station, a perturbed young woman in a cool white linen ensemble left the train, and summoned a taxi to take her to Hampton. There she smuggled herself into her father's house, and that night she attended the ball at the Country club, a bewitching Spanisli dancer In a ravishing costume, a stranger whom no one seemed to recognize. Jim, in his courtly Louis XVI dress, was completely captivated by the fascinating stranger, cut in on her dances a^ain and again, sat out dances with her. Whispers behind fans und soft white hands became a part of the atmosphere. The romance of it was glamorous! ~ - ( Came the moment to unmask and Jim hovered over her eagerly, for she was trying to escape him. His hand fell lightly upon her arm. "Don't be shy," he whispered softly til her ear. "Hurry- and take that disfiguring thing from your face. You know I'm dying to look at you. "You dream dancer from Fairyland! I know you are beautiful, you goddess glrL I knew you were my dream girl the moment that I laid my eyes on you." • YOLO Mr. and Mrs. Nick Molidor and family of Ingleside visited the latter'sl parents, Mr. and Mrs. B.

The President's apparent attempt to utilize iull powers given htm under the law creating NRA is taken as another step to the left or a definite anti-business move with labor gaining everything : and employers holding the bag. A persistent application of this policy is calculated to provide a severe test of recovery plana. If the Chief Executive turns his /back on the written Agreements Or codes to which various industries consented then,'the" (fie is cast for a pitched battle,' which will shake the country to the core. A ten per cent reduction in the present average work week of 40 hours arid a ten per cent wage increase as contemplated in White House amendments to codes will be bitterly contested. In the see-saw struggle for power between General Johnson and the team of Frances Perkins and Donald Richberg, the real issue overshadows the popular idea that just personalities were involved. Johnson is not popular with industry which resents his domineering methods, but considers the general wants to be fair with employers, workers and consumers. Donald Richberg has profited- lor years as general Counsel for the powerful and militant railway workers unions- His sympathies are naturally with his former clients which clouds hi9 judgment as an imperial government official, Miss Perkins would like to take over labor functions of NRA for her Department of Labor. She has access to the President's ear--atr-all times either through her cabinet rating or via her intimate friend, Mrs. Roosevelt. Business men would prefer the blustering and arrogant Johnson with his threats and fist-shaking than the suave Richberg and gentle-voiced Fanny Perkins, who are likely to operate NRA-in the interests of the labor unions without consideration of the genius and more practical plans. Reports indicate a deep resentment against speeches of some "brain trustees" giving the implication that those who challenge present government policies are ossified or old-fashioned. Acquainted with these reactions, Mr. Roosevelt ^utg endeavored to muzzle some of these roving salesmen of the New Deal. Henceforth, spokesmen -will attempt to clarify the position of the administration toward the profit motive to allay "concern. «The need for adequate explanations struck home when the newly-created American „ Liberty League popped across the political skies. Allegedly non-partisan, the League manned by conservative Democrats ant) Republicans is in the field for the purpose of turning the searchlight on economic activities of the federal government. The keynote preservation of constity? tipnal rights is appealing because it" implies that a bulwark against radical tendencies will be erected. The management includes A1 Smith and John W. Davis, Democratic Presidential Candidates in 1924 and 1928. Millions voted for these party standard-bearers, arid the prestige, they lend the League is acknowledged by friend^ and foe. They are co-operating with Republican leaders probably in the iftterests of the millions who have invested in industrial enterprises whose earnings and. security they feel endangered by a drift toward radical government policies. Regardless of their underlying mdtives the new outfit will bid for public opinion with counter-propaganda to federal publicity forces just like rival salesmen. The League has a first-class problem of being critical and at the same time avoid playing the Republican game. Though Congress will not convene until January, aspirants to the speakership of the House of Representatives are already canvassing for votes. The ttfisk is difficult because only a few of the present mentber^Jiip are assured of re-election next November. Sectionalism which marked the selection of the late Speaker Rainey is cropping out. The seniority rule which has been invoked in the selection of leaders may be set aside in the fight Used Graves 4000 B, C ' . An expedition at Ur has found gAves dug In 4000 B. C. men who must meet the payroll. Failure to provide compensating advantages such as authority to stabilize prices has lessened the faith of business meri in NRA. The new prospect of paying more wages for a 36-hour week without a chance to advance commodity prices is a sore spot. Three special agents of the Bureau of Internal Revenue are in England studying tax methods. An upward revision of our tax structure is forecast unless business 6hows a marked increase within the next four or five months. Surveys show that the doubts 4>i business leaders as to what the Federal government will do next has an enfeebling effect on recovery. There is a pronounced demand from this sector of American life for less m ¥ .a for this high honor. The South has a majority of chairmen controlling ; major committees solely because of' the seniority rights. The chances favor a Southerner for the speakership , either the present majority leaded Joseph W. Byrnes of Tennessee, or William B. Bankhead, chairman of the;; ; powerful rules committee.
