SCENES AT THE NATIONAL RIFLE TEAM MATCHES
Margaret's Wedding Veil
By MARTHA McCLLLOCH-WILLIAMS
"Sucti u men!". Margaret sighed.
'But I'll have to wear It all summer!
Oh, dear! Why muBt one be so
poor? If 1 only had any way to do it.
I'd work my fingers oft to get some
thing outer."
She was looking at her new frock
In the mirror she had set on the floor.
The skirt sagged outrageously, most ,
where It should have hung level. Be
ing of sleazy stuff, nnd 111 cut. there
was no help for the sagging. Margaret
hated sleazy stuff the simplest Arm
cotton would have pleased her much
better than this bargain counter aeo
llan. Mrs. Lane, ber stepmother, was
of a different mind. Her Idea of ele
gance was bounded north, south, east
and west by frippery and trimmings.
"Now. I call that real tasty!" she
said, thrusting her head Inside the
chamber door. "Blue . with white
stripes and you can't deny it be-

The worst of It was she could not
speak truth. Mrs. Inne was so hon
estly pleased with their Joint handi
work, had put so much heart and
kindness into the choice and making
of the dress, it would bo brutal to tell
her how she hated It. Still there are
limits to endurance. Margaret reach
ed them when Mrs. Lane suggested
putting a tucker of blue-sprigged mus
lin Inside the square-cut neck.
"I'll wait till I can get plain bob-
hinet." she said.
Mrs. Lane flung up her hands. "You
know how the hens are slatkin' up In
their layln'," she said. "We won't
have three dozen eggs for Joe Davis
tMs week. And the sugar's low, and
tea. next to nothln' and if you don't
fix the neck of your new frock, you
can't wear It to the plcnlck."
"I don't care rbout going not
much," Margaret said, still dully but
there was a wistful nndernote.
Mrs. Lane caught It. though Marga

out on the back porch, her mind run
ning thus:
"I'll go without tea surely I can

found the thing finding meant keep

so she would be all for hunting up
the owner, never thluklug of her own
need. She should not do It Mrs.
Lane had her own dull ambitions. She
loved her husband's daughter all tne
better now that be was dead. Marga
ret should go to the picnic Jimmy
Traynor would be there. Jimmy was
a sort of cousin, and highly desirable
in Mrs. Lane's eyes. If only he could
se Margaret at her best. It might
mean a great deal, if he did not see
her. It was unlikely he would come
looking for her at home and that
baggage Dora Carter would be sure
to make much of him.
"Joe hadn't no bobblnet, but ne
sold me this veil dirt cheap only 60
cents and waits fer the money." Mrs
Lane suld as she fluug the veil In
Margaret's lap.
Margaret gave a little cry. She was
no more luce-wise than her elder, but
she knew beauty anywhere the cob
web traceries, the delicate llorlatlon.
as fine as frost-lace, filled her with
Joy.
"You're real good to me, mother,"
she said, looking up, dewy-eyed. "But
it don't seem right to go In debt for
anything we tan do without. It
don't seem right, either, to cut aud
slash this," touching the lace tender
ly, "I wonder how Joe ever came to
buy it- I never saw it In the show
case." "You are the beat of all," Mrs. Lane
said fretfully. "Here I been trompm
bareheaded In the sun to get what you
want, and you ain't satisfied."
"I'm too satisfied; the veil is too
pretty," Margaret cried, getting up
and enveloping her throat In the Una
fabric
When she started to the picnic
next morning she was almost happy.
Blue was certainly her color; this
blue matched her eyes. She would
not look down at the taggy ruffled
skirt rather she held up her head
so the lace at ber throat might show
its full beauty. She had put In lace
sleeves, too the veil was long and
amiile. And still there remained a
lot of It. enough for coverlug ber
frowsy pink hat as soon as she had
time to do It. And Just at the gate
she ran upon Jimmy Traynop-. coming
to escort her to the plculo grounds.
He gave a satisfied whistle at sight
of her and said:
"Peggy. I shall have the swagger
cst girl of anybody. You look good
enough to eat, but don't you be
afraid."
"I Bha'n't be," Margaret laughed.
Her holiday mood ran unchecked
until dinner time. Jimmy stuck by
her, and, such is the force of exam
ple, three other young fellows wno
otherwise would hrve no more tban

tense of banging around the pair.
Miss Allda Venn came to the picnic
in anything but holiday mood. She
had been angry over coming to the

therefore to be concllated. But they
need not have dragged her'out among
their villagers!
If she had not been In such a tem-'

tremities. At sight of Margaret In
nocently fine and vain, In her rose
point she gave a little gasp and
clutched Mrs. Gore's arm. crying:
"I knew It was Btolen my veil!
But you Insisted there wasn't thief In
all your precious vllla,"
"Allda. hush!" Mrs. Gore said In an
Imperative whisper. But Miss Venn
had darted from h?r, caught Margaret

"Sure! You can have what you want

customer when I see her," Joe said
reulally, when with some falterlngs

Disappointment ' waited on them.
There was not a bit of net, or any

snatched it out of a wlr.dow up at the
Gore house. It was the great bouse

Little Protest.
Pittsburgh, Pa. "Down with the
cigarette and tobacco and up with
moral standards."
This Is the latest cry or the United
States Steel corporation, which in
many ways bas been striving for up
lift among Its thousands of workmen.
Following the lead of the American
Bridge company, the steel corporation
Is making tobacco a contraband arti
cle during working hours In the Pitts
burgh mills.
The first move was made at Am
bridge, the town site of the American
Bridge company's great Industry. No
tices have been posted there for
bidding smoking within the plant, and
It Is understood that officials In order
to set an example will refrain from
Indulelng In perfectos during office
hours.
"It Is Injurious to the health of
working men." .
This Is the argument of the steel
trust, which lu more ways thnn one
has taken up certain social and liv
ing problems among Its employes.
The example of the American Bridge
company has been followed In various
Carnegie mills, and there has been lit
tle or no protest from the men against
the ruling.
The point has been stretched In fa
