"I had a long talk with Dr. Knowles yesterday," he said slowly. "He says your mother isn't making the progress she should. Thinks she needs to get away have a complete change of scene." Cherry nodded. "She worries toa much." she told him. "About the house and the way the servants do things. I've noticed it." "Dr. Knowles says she should get away." the man went on. "for several sev-eral months. Says sea air would be good for her. There's a little place on the coast of Massachusetts he recommends. Not a resort exactly. exact-ly. Quiet and comfortable." "1 think It's a splendid Idea," Cherry said. TWhen can she go?" "That depends. Knowles want her to leave before we have an Intense In-tense hot spell. Says it might take all the strength she's gained. Cherry, I want you to go with your mother." "You want me to go?" Dixon nodded. "To keep her company. The nurse will go too, of course, but your mother needs someone else. She'd rather have you than anyone." "But Father, it's it's out of the question. I can't leave!" "Why not?" "Well, I just can't!" "Of course I'll take care of every expense. Clothes. Anything you may need. It'll be a splendid vacation. vaca-tion. I thought you'd enjoy it!" The girl moved uneasily. "Yes. of course." she said. "But I. can't leave Dan." "You mean you're going to spend the entire summer in that tin box of an apartment? But tfiaVfc ridlctf-lous. ridlctf-lous. Why should you? Just because be-cause he must stay- here In the heat is no reason why you should!"

Besides Be-sides he needs me here." Walter Dixon got to his feet. "That has nothing to do with it," be said impatiently. "I- should think that for your mother's sake" The girl Interrupted. "I've done everything I could for Mother." she said, "and you know I've been glad to. But I can't leave Dan. You can get someone else. There are plenty of people. Why don't you go yourself?" "How can I get away?" "It might be good for you. You and Mother haven't had a trip together to-gether for years. You're the one who should go with her." But her father shook his head. "I'd never be able to leave now," he told her. "I have to think of business." jRS. DIXON next day added her appeals to her husband's and tried to persuade Cherry to come away with her. It was no use. The girl was firm. She also told her mother she had decided against ordering or-dering the dresses at Madelatae's. "What I have will do for the places I'm going to wear them." Cherry said. "And I couldn't take the things without letting Dan know about it." "Then I murt say I think you're being down right stubborn!" Cherry laughed. "Call it that if you want to but let's not quarrel about it By the way, that's a lovely love-ly dressing gown you're wearing. Did Madelaine make that?" The trip to the Massachusetts resort re-sort was not definitely settled upon for several days. Then with char acterlstic abruptness Walter Dixon decided he would accompany his wife and that they would depart the next week. Cherry was pleased. The decision eased er mind aboat her mother's health and it also settled problems that had been bothering her. Tflfc three 6r four hours she had been spending every day at her parents' home cut into her schedule: Each day ended with many things undone un-done and the tasks had piled up rather alarmingly. Then, too, she was learning It is not easy to divide di-vide your time, spending half of it amid luxurious surroundings and halt counting pennies. In spite of what her father and mother might say Cherry knew they disapproved of Dan. Though he inquired solicitously about her mother's health she knew Dan was aware of this disapproval. Yes, Cherry would be glad when she could settle down to her own life. Back in her mind there was the vague fear she would not admit ad-mit even to herself the fear that, ever so slightly, she and Dan might be driftinr apart That was . too frightful to be recognized, Mr. and Mrs. Dixon were to de KkoTvuR-i N "toON ONE UHQ - - ROOM ON MIS BADDCST OF BUDDIES tt TOO BS A - SOO Tlfc A. I V part Wednesday morning. Monday Cherry telephoned to ay that she would not be out that day. . She had shopping to do and several errands. er-rands. If Martin could come tor her early the following flay ahfl would spend all afternoon at Briar? top. She hung up the receiver with a sense of relief. Pinky scampered across her path and she picked up the kitten and held his fur against her cheek. "You've been neglected. Pinky," she announced. "But we're going to change that. Goodness, how you're growing!" Pinky arched his back, poked at the collar of Cherry's dress with one paw, and seemed to enjoy the new game. The shopping Cherry had to do consisted entirely of purchases from a 5-andlO-cent store. Mrs. Moreau, who lived upstairs, had bought some dishes there and Cherry wanted some like them. The loss of dishes by breakage during dur-ing her first month of housekeeping had been alarmingly high. She also needed a saucepan to replace one that had burned through, some tea towels and a glass top for the coffee cof-fee percolator. T 2:30 she pulled on the last year's Panama with the black band around it. picked up her purse and gloves and left the apartment There was a long wait before the street car came clattering along. When, it finally came and Cherry climbed aboard there was only room to stand with the other perspiring per-spiring straphangers. The motion of the car created a breeze, however, how-ever, and she was grateful for it "It's lucky Mother's leaving on Wednesday," the girl thought. "We're certainly In for a heat wave!" She had a fleeting picture of her parents' home, Brlartop, with its lawn like clipped, velvet, the breeze rustling through its stately trees, the garden, broad porches and cool shaded rooms. Cherry sighed and wlpeT her forehead again. It was going to be even hotter down town. The car jolted on. The weather was showing its effects on the dispositions dis-positions of passengers. Men and women pushed by each other impatiently. im-patiently. When they finally reached Twelfth street and Central avenue there was a general scramble scram-ble to be out first Cherry hung back purposely and was among the last to leave. It was a block's walk to the 5-and-10 store. Cherry had been there only a few times. The dozens of counters with their apparently unlimited assortment of articles still amazed her. She became confused con-fused and could not find the household house-hold department until a young man directed her. She bought the saucepans and moved on to the china counters. lHY CALL NfeT.rVT? ftMfcS LOOK Lltfe LlTTLf LAUD foiftJlFfSHTCL POOI Ofto" A BAD -MAN IS PUTS NOTCHES ON V41S VICTIMS BECAUSE HE WAS NO - - - - H GUN - T.

Both of her arms were filled with bundles. She was conscious that she must be very careful of the dishes. Her nose and cheeks were glistening, her hat pushed awry. . The dress that had been fresh when she left home was rumpled and soiled now. She was tempted to stop in a drag store for a-soda but the bundles bun-dles dissuaded her. "If I put them down," she told herself. "Ill never be able to manage man-age them again." She was on her way to the. car stop when a clear, high-pitched voice interrupted her. Cherry turned. "Why, Gretchen. hello!" "Cherry Dixon! Oh. excuse me I keep forgetting you're married. Phillips, Isn't it? What on earth have you been doing? My dear, I didn't know you! All those pack ages 1" Cherry's cheeks had been hot before. be-fore. Now they were flaming. "Shopping," she said. "Some things I wanted in a hurry and couldn't wait to have delivered. But what are you doing down town on a day like this?" Gretchen Alden frowned. She was dressed in silk the color of creme de mentbe. Her hat and sandals san-dals matched exactly. Not a single strand of her lovely golden hair was out of place. "Frightful, isn't It?" she asked. "I'm simply melted. But you Bee we're leaving for Lake Louise and I bad to have some fittings. I'm getting three of the sweetest frocks " She described them fluently. Cherry's arms were becoming cramped with her bundles but there was nothing to do but listen. "Cherry, my dear," the other eirl wound up, "mother and I are giving a little musicalo Sunday evening. Awfully Informal, you know. That good-looking violinist Carl Van Dyke, is going to play. Won't you come and bring your husband? I'm dying to meet him!" "I'll see." Cherry agreed. "I'm not sure what our plans are. Well. I must be on my way." "Can't I give you a lift?" Gretchen Gretch-en urged.. "I'm. meeting Mother with the car at 5" Cherry shook her head. "No thanks," she' Said. TU calr you later about Sunday." As she rode home (luckily having secured a seat on the street car), Cherry entertained herself with a vision of Dan at one of Gretchen. Alden's muslcales. She gave him an amusing version of her afternoon's adventures over the dinner table. Afterward Dan helped wash and put away the dishes. dish-es. They were finishing the last of them when there was a knock at the door. "I'll answer," Cherry said. She crossed the toom and opened the door. A moment later she cried, "Why. Father!"
