He soon became a frequent visitor at our house and my parents and also I found him to he a very pleasant and Interesting younc man After he had studied my character and habits well enough he began to talk to me In a serious fashion. I al ways laushed at him and thought him fool ish for speaktne in such a manner because Ism only a schoolgirl Several weeks have passed since we have met with each other, and I often think I am to blame because I never reeponded to his requirements. Kindly advise me If it would be all right to call him up? O. L. n. You were not unwise as a schoolgirl to refuse to talk "seriously" with the young man, but there are ways and ways to ward off tills type of conversa tion You could have told him In a very kind way that you were too young to think of such things, having not yet finished school. It would not be out of placo to drop him a friendly little note saying something like this: "Father and mother and I are wondering what has become of you Won't you come have I supper with us?" (Mention the time). With a Purse The little dark blue taffeta dress I liked best In the collection was made with an oversklrt,. trimmed with four or five Inch wide corded bands.

It can be patriotic, too, when there's a war garden party. Not many days ago In one of our sub urbs two very clever women engineered nn affair that would bo Ideal for the waning light of harvest moon. There was little expense and the proceeds of the affair went to the Woman's Oversea Hospitals The decorations were In the nature of the absurd. Some very well-known Jokes, mother-in-law, etc, were printed on cards and tacked up In the yard and marked "Hardy annuals" : then there Were cornstalks mounted on canes. As cl1 eommuter entered tho yard he or rho was required to purchase a season ticket This acted as a score card to be punched. The guests received little spadei made -.t cardboard, on each of which was written the first lino of a Jlngte about gardening This was one of the games to complete the Jingle. Tho ones who did so In cleverest fashion had their cards punched, Then there were grocery boxes filled with sand nil along the walk. Theso were thn gardens. Kach couple took a turn at digging In one of Hum, as the other wRtched. Hoth the man nnd girl wern equipped with toy spades, which ate passed ftom couple to couple. The digging went on until one of the pair brought to light an article or couple of articles which gae the name of something raised In n war garden. Their cards were nunched for this too. There were several more or mese nmo games and In the midst of all tho hilarity camn refreshments, which were strictly wartime. They were extra on the pocketbook. Tho refreshments consisted of Boston baked beans, Boston brown bread sweetened with molasses and pine apple punch sweetened with honey. The evening rounded up with dancing on the porch.

I hear Hob Gordon is O home, nnd they say he has enlisted and expects to be called away any time," said Hetty. Mrs. Dale, with her three girls Ann, Betty and Kate were s-eated at the "up per table Her husband had died many years before, leaving a comfortable farm by which tho Pales managed to cam their living. Ilobert Cordon, whose father owned the next farm, half a mile away, had been a great chum with the girls In their early school days, but when school hnd ended he had gone West to live with an uncle It was rumored that a lovers' quarrel hastened his departure. "I should think he would have been over to see us by this time," remarked Mrs. Dale. "He always did enjoy roam ing around our farm," with a glance at Ann. "He'll he over, don't worry," Ann said aloud, nnd to herself, "hut I'll manage not to be at home." "You bet he will.' declared Kate, " 'causo I'm going over to see him to- morrow " I After the supper dishes were washed land everything cleared away the Dales ! alwavs settled down In their comfort able sitting room The conversation drifted to Robert Gordon and to various other toplert of the day 'Finally- Ann spoke up "I'm going blueberry Ing tomonovv morning. Any body want to go with me?" "I wish I could," answered Betty, "but I've got some Ironing to do" "And I've got to finish making that 'blue dress of mine," answered Knte. "Well, I guess you will have to go i alone, Ann,' said Mrs. Dale. "You know I 1 never go " The next morning Ann was up bright hnd early, but not before her mother, for Mrs. Dale was always up early. With two good-sized palln Ann started off "Look out for snakes," was her moth- ers last warning. It began to get late. Ann was picking a few berries to have the palls brim full, when she spied something moving. It wan green I "A snake!" screamed Ann She turned and ran Just as fast as s.he could go, looking back every now and then to see If the reptile was pur suing her, when suddenly, bump ' What was that? Turning her head Ann saw a fine looking young man looking down at her "Why er er, I beg your pardon, Hob. I3r I mean Mr. Gordon," she panted "Oh. that's all right. Ann Er Miss Dale, hut why tho sudden rush?" "Oh, I don't know, I'm so frightened ! I was picking blueberries hack there when I saw a big green snake coming right at me, and I I ran, that's all. Please don't call me Miss Dale, Rob. Ann, If you please. Oh, I was so fright ened I" Ann swayed, but Rob caught her and ' fanning her with his hat he soon Lrought her hack to her senses again, Goodness. I guess I'll never go blue- berrying alone again," she murmured. Rob smiled to himself. In reality It vvas probably only a little green snake moving away from her Instead of com ing toward her. As he left her at the gate he whis pered. "We're all made up, aren't we, Ann?" "I s'pose so," laughed Ann, and she tripped Into the house. "What makes you look so happy?" questioned Betty as Ann entered "Oh, something." she answered. "Well, keep It," Betty pouted "Kate went over to see Rob, but they said he had gone blueberrylng. You didn't see him, dm youT" "Dldn't I, though?" sang Ann as she sallied Into the next room A week later, as Roh and Ann were strolling along the country road arm In arm, and after the one word of all words, "yes," had been said, Rob ques tioned Ann. "Well, dear, what do you want for your engagement gift?'" "An emerald ring," piped Ann. "An emerald 1 Don't you want a dla rtiond?" "No, an emerald. You see, It vvas a green snake." "Oh!" laughed Rob "So that's It? Well, you shall have It." "Well, you see, if It hadn't been for that little green snake (Ann had fully decided It was little) why, our friendship would have been broken forever, and now everything Is mended. The little green snake was responsible, Rob." Rob agreed, and true to his promise gave Ann the emerald, and there were also little chip diamonds surrounding It. One night some days later the Dale family was again seated at the supper table. "What's that you've got on your nn ger, there?" asked Betty, at the same time pointing to the ring on the third finger of Ann's hand, "Why, that's a ring," answered uncon cerned Ann. with a smile on her face., "Come, now, tell us all about It," piped Kate. Ann did. She told about the green snake and all. Mrs. Dale wasn't a bit surprised for she had been let Into the secret long ago. The girls laughed, and Betty sang out, "Oh. you little green snake I" When Rob left to do his bit for Uncle Sam Ann sent him away with a smile although It seemed as though her heart would break. But perhaps she thought of the little bit of green that sent her the good luck to have a soldier boy to send away with a smile. TontorroMis Complete Novelette r TJtE.

ART1CLK VIII OF COURSE there was a real an nouncement Just ns Ruth 'had planned, Even grlm-vlsaged Mnrtha had entered somewhat enthusiastically Into the preparations for the affair. Mrs. Rowland had decided that a little bridge with refreshments of some kind after ward would be better than nn elaborate uncheon. Ruth had held out for the luncheon because It was more showy, but when her mother obiected to the expense In war time, Ruth gave In almost Instantly "And mother. I don't want Bobble to be anywhere around." Ruth stated em phatically. "Who wants to bo around at your old party?" Bald Hobble scornfully. "I don't think much of it, and that crowd of girls youjknow, anyway." "Hobble," -protested Mrs. Rowland mildly. "Never mind. Bobble," said Martha consolingly. "Martha will save you some of everything there Is to eat," Ruth laughed' In spite of herself at the satisfied look that Instantly over spread Bobble's round countenance, nnd the subject was dropped. Chattering girls In summer dresses and big hats trooped Into the apartment on the afternoon of tho announcement, and there was bridge Interspersed with a great deal of conversation. "Ruth 'you were a genius to think nf a party at tills time of the year when so little Is happening," said one. "Yes, particularly now that no ono Is going out of town," said nnother. "The war has made us all poor." "And I have a shrowd belief that there Is something behind all this gayety and excitement," said a third. "Ruth, you scamp. Is It going to be an announcement?"' whispered Helen Bran der, leaning across tho chair to breathe tho question Into Ruth's ear. Ruth shook her head and the after noon went merrily on. Her eyes swept the gay roomful occasionally and there was a thoughtful expression In them Lmoro than once. Myra Brlggs caused this expression one time, for Ruth could not help noticing that the girl was play ing with obvious difllculty, and as though she did not enjoy tho gamo over much Myra had refused to como at first. i:iHT.T10NAI, llotli Sexes Emergency Training for Wartime Business THE WAR HAS TORN GREAT GAPS in our business organizations.

"I know you're desperately busy, Myra," Ruth had said, "but I really want vou to come this time. It won't make iny difference If you come late. I can always fill In, you know." There wasn't a great deal of so-called style about Myra Brlggs, although after one talked with her a few minutes the fact seemed unimportant. She worked In .an advertising office and every minute of her time seemed to bo taken up with her work. Ruth had been fond of Myra at college. Some of the most enjoyable moments of her girl life there had been the days when she and Myra had taken walks and had pondered upon life In general. But since then Myra had been too busy to do the frivolous things that Ruth enjoyed, and they had slowly drifted npart. In spite of this fact Ruth never lost track ot Myra entirely. There was something about the old college friendship that held Ruth unconsciously. held that part of her that, temporarily put aside for lighter amusements, had never been quite killed. As Ruth said after the affair that afternoon was over, everything had been quite perfect Of course, several of the girls had suspected, but there were enough of them who were really sur prised, to make It entirely worth the trouble of getting up the nffalr. It had been such a splendid way to announce tho engagement, to tell every one at oncc,nnd to display her wonderful ring to the admiring crowd of guests. "I knew It and suspected It all along," exulted Helen Brander. "Yes and you nearly gave It away," returned Ruth. "Did any of you hear her ask me ncross the table?" A laughlng.negatlve to that question. "I surely never saw a more wonderful ring," said another, "you and Jack are so well suited Ruth." "Aren't they?" In chorus. "O, I don't know about that," came a volco In denial, "I hardly knew at first whether It was Jack or Scott Ray mond." For a moment Ruth stiffened, then her native good sense came to her aid and she laughed. "Jack and I have always cared," she announced. "Of course, I am fond of Scott, every one Is, but wo are Just good friends."

But. tactful Myra Brlggs came to the rescue and In an Instant the talk began again, '" "Are you going to be married soon? How .long have, you had your rlnr' And from that moment to "the end of the afternoon when Jack arrived carrying flowers and was overwhelmed by the throng of chattering girls, everything was aa It should be. Myra drew Ruth close to her just before she went. "I'm eo glad for you, dear." ehe whispered. "Just a minute, Myra, before you go, I want to tell you something," Ruth said Impulsively, "It's about Jack. Of course I couldn't tell the others, but I wnat you to know because we have al ways been such friends down deep un derneath." Myra waited, and for a moment or two the glfls were alone. , "Jack Isn't going ncross, he hai been exempted." Her entire attitude was that of absolute triumph and she waited for Myra to rejoice with her. "O, Ruth, I'm so sorry." "But why should you be sorry? That's what Scott said. I thought you'd be glad for me, Myra, or I never should have told you at all' Ruth's disappointment vvas obvious. "Forgive tne, dear, I didn't know you felt that way about It," Myra returned quickly. "And If Jack feels that he has" done everything he can, I know that you must "be more than happy to be able to keep him with jou."

And I don't throw away my left-over steak either oh, dear not I cut It In pieces for serving, and when I've got It slightly heated I pour over It a mixture of a quarter of a pound of melted butter substi tute and two tablespoons of Al Sauce.. It makes a splendid sauce, too, for freshly broiled steak or fish. Jim says he knows I don't mind his bringing company home unexpect edly, even on Monday night.
