"Itonlt'ii Indeed told me the. truth

1'aiiu'la extended one cheek to the

1e up the tall, Monde, cool young
person thnt she surmised muHt answer

the product of two shorts, how on
earth hud she miiiiiiKcri to grow so
long? Her face wh usulurly heuutl

peared as passive as a rainier snow

After a little skirmishing for posi

selves In a triangle, Into the center of

"Now," snld Mrs. Mllyuns, having
emptied and put down her cup, "let's

"I would put clothes ahead of a

'kept her eyea fixed on Miss Thornton's

bo lack of something to say but
rather In search of words and the
Blunging courage necessary to the say
Inf. She drew a Ions breath and dellv
red herself of the following:
"Really, It's most awfully kind of

to continue him as my companion."

arms, and then smiled Indulgently for
tbe first time riurlnir the Interview, bo-
tag under the Impression that at last
he had run Into something appropri
ately naive In the hearing of her new
char ge. "Of course you can keep him
n. but you must reullze that you can't
live here' without a woman In the
fcouse."
" "Oh, yes. 1 can." said Miss Thornton,
little brent hlessly. "I have a feel
ing I can't explain It exactly thnt
this apnrtnient Is a one-woman settlnu.
As I hhIiI to Mr. Mllyuns. 1 don't want
to clutter It with females."
A client ijiuub crept Into the eyes of
the ninrliles(tie Kileen: something 1n
lile of Iht snt up and took notice. She
fin need round the room and mur
mured :
"Mother, she's absolutely right. I'm
for her."
" 'flight !" K'leen!" exclaimed Mrs.
TMllyuns. Hushing In her Indignation at
JBndlng a traitor In the home camp. "1
4on't know what your generation Is

Having taken up her suave cudgel.
Eileen was In no ha te to Iny If down,

charmingly Interested onlooker, ruidy
to watch the tide of her own fortune
from the vantage-point of anentlrely
Impersonal detachment.
"That's where you slipped mother,"
continued the quite unruffled Kileen.
"There's nothing Impossible to our
feneration. Impossibilities are our
food, drink and raiment. We're like
those surprising orchid things that de
fy the usuul laws and live on air."
"Yes," remarked Mrs. Mllyuns; "any

Eileen, to be a stumbling-block to to
ramela, who Is suddenly faced with
problems In the solution of which she
deserves our sympathetic assistance."
"You've hit the rail on the head

twinkle of anticipation In her eyes,
-How about ltr
Pamela smiled back her bubbling
mile, and then suddenly grew grave.
"Do you think I could order by
measure?" the asked, and, remarking
the hurt astonishment on Eileen's
face, continued In rapid but neverthe
less halting explunaUon : "You see, tfe
Mr. Randolph, This la really bis apart

him. I I wouldn't be out when be

before she could make any further
progress along that line, Eileen was on
her feet and saying good by among
, these other things ; .
"That's all nonsense. If Bobby

"Tomliimon con' !n't," said Pamela
with culm cmp'ne '.v.

etiTcnl vigilance i nd led her to say:
"After nil. I -vlll go with you. If It

"I'lnlsbed shopping," said Pamela
"I've been keeping nccount. and I've

"'The whole check V" exclaimed
Eileen. "Why, you haven't touched It.
That's the beauty of charge accounts
You can keep your checks to look at.
I've got some that father gave me
three years ago."
Pamela smiled a smile of much wis
dom and made for the nearest exit. As
a matter of polite formality, when they
reached Fifty-ninth street, she asked
Eileen to come up for lunch from the
bnchelor's buffet In Hie basement, and
she could not help a slight feeling of
relief at the news that Miss Mllyuns
had promised herself elsewhere.
"Hut I'll break away and come for
tea at five, If you'll let me," said Ei
leen. "I simply must help you try
them all on."
"All right; do," said Pamela, Inward
ly pleased that she would have some
one beside Tomllnson upon whom to
flash the first dazzling vision of her
metamorphosis.
The first thing she did when she
reached the apartment was to ask If
Mr. Ilandolph bad called ; the next was
to summon the office of Mllyuns.
Branch & Mllyuns on the telephone to
know what steps ha! been taken In the
new search. She was somewhat sur
prised to learn that the entire firm had
gone out to lunch In a body, and stll
more startled at the Information, ob
tained three hours later from the ssme
supercilious voice at the other end of
the wire, to the effect that none of them
had come back. She was young; she
believed It. -
There Is no doubt that In five min
utes more Mr. Oloom would have as
sumed full sway In the late apartment

of Trying On.
of Mr. Robert II. Randolph had not a
long procession of parcels begun to ar
rive In the nick of time. Tomllnson
brought them Into the bedroom, one,
two, three at a haul, and Pamela her
sey cut the knots with Mr. Randolph's
best nail-scissors and laid out the
goods, filmy fold upon fllmy fold.
By fue time Eileen turned up the
apartment looked like the stateroom
de lux of a millionaire young lady re
turning front Paris with nothing to
wesr -tnd preparing to swear to It be
fore all the customs officials In Qotn
am. Toinlinsou was ordered to fill the
cellar with wrapping-paper, tissue-paper,
cardboard boxes and string, burn
ing what was left over In the back
yard.
As soon as sufficient space had been
cleared for action; the two girls set to
work, and were soon Involved In such
an orgy of "trying on" as only the
healthiest atamlna of youth could
have endured wltSout falling over In a
dead faint from exhaustion. Even
Eileen divested her person of every
thing but, and experimented with such
dear garments as It seemed Impossible
Miss Thornton could get round to In
the allotted time.
Having tried to show the public bow
charming was Pamela la and without
her cheap clothes, no puerile and gasp
ing effort will be made In these pages
to measure the effect upon her of the
latest creations of the raiment dream-
fods of Fifth avenue. Suffice it to say
H-.ut, !n obe bouf s tliT5iTTnf oT f!7e
eye, he lxcsme such a radiant vision
as chokes mere words down Into the
pit of a ninn's stomncb. makes bis 1n
work like that of a fish on a hot side
walk, fills his eyes with the pleading
. light of calf-love and Inspires his
hnnds with an overmastering desire to
reach for It.
For two. four, tlv dnys, a week, two
weeks. Pamela lived In breathless an
ticipation of the moment when sh
could burst upon the eyesight of one
Robert Ilervey Randolph, ami when all
these days and weeks passed with
out tiny news of hlin, her lips that
were made to smile, to kiss, and to
bless the n!r with words softly spoken
and carried on the fragrance of cleafi
young breath began to droop pitifully.
Mr. MMynns' efforts In several direc
tions hud so far proved In vnln. He
had ndvor'led In every patter In (Joth
atn. from the New York Epoch to the
pink Po'lee tJnetie; bp ,n,j offered
rewards; he bad set traps and was
now supporting n large corps of rap
Idly fattening Individuals who called
themselves "pla'n clothes" men n
name thnt wou'd have fitted them nd
nilrably had the last syllable been omit
ted. Ills net results were the Infor
mation thnt Mr. Randolph, In a repre
hensible state of Intoxication and at
seven o'clock of I lie morning of w hich
be b"d disappeared, had exchanged his
swell evening garments at a second
hand emporium on Sixth avenue for a
suit of thicks nnd eighteen dollars In
cash, stating, as he left the place, thnt
he was thinking of going South for the
rest of the winter.
After a minute and leisurely study
of all the exits from Manhattan, the
plain-clothes men hnd given it as their
united opinion that Mr. Randolph hnd
been speaking facetiously In his last
known remark and had probably not
voyaged farther south than Canal
street. They said If he would only try
to leave New York they could find him
at once, and settled down on a policy
of watchful waiting for that event
The efforts made by Mr. Mllyuns In
the direction of springing Miss Thorn
ton on society went equally awry, but
were not quite so fruitless. His na
tural love of a smooth-running estab
lishment on the slippery crust of Goth
am's social plane would have been
saved a severe bump If American pa
rents were as careful to look up their
guests' moral records as they are to
study their ratings In Bradstreetum's.
Unfortunately for Mr. Mllyuns, It
happened that a certain young scion
of g once gentlemanly house wgs In
cluded fn the first large dinner-box-party
given to meet Miss Imogene
rami's .Th?rni.n- n tne natural
course of sucli events, the pasty youth
stepped up for presentation, register
ing In Ms protuberant eyes a gleam of
dubious surprise. What If h,e should
sayj "Hello, Vlvlenne I" Would It cre
ate a sensation T
Something else did; namely, Miss
Thornton's modulated but terribly
clear voice.
"I met Mr. Beamer," said Pamela,
drawing back quickly her half-extended
hand, "when I was a chorus-girl."
She turned with a winning atnile to
her recently beaming hostess. "I don't
care to know him In pleasanter sur
roundings." For one breathless second there
threatened one of those silences that
spell social disaster. Eileen took It
upon herself to mash It In Its extreme
youth with a soft tap of her efficient
hammer.
"Oh, must you really go?" she re
marked to Mr. Reamer.
Did this spectacular debut strike the
name of Imogene Pamela from the lists
of the matronly elite of Manhattan?
It did not. Invitations rained on her
and found her unresponsive. Her
would-be hostesses would have gone
the length of submitting rostrums of
proposed guests as though to royalty,
except for the fnct that each and every
one of them wished to put her own
nearest nnd dearest to the test of a
sudden meeting with the most ex
clusive of New York's latest crop of
buds.
Pamela refused and accepted these
bids for the Infest thing In sensations
In the most erratic manner. No one
could fathom Just why she said, "No,"
and much less why she occasionally
said. "Yes." The mystery only added
to the demands for her company and
the Nays soon began to show an over
whelming preponderance over the
Ayes, Why? Simply because It was
not In the power of any of the host
esses to cnll up the moody girl and
say: "My dear, we are going to have
JuRt pork and beans for dinner tonight.
Won't you Join us? Mr. Robert Iler
vey Randolph said he would drop In
for pot-luck."
Yes ; every time Pamela had accept
ed an invitation. It was In the rapidly
waning hope that Mr. Randolph, be
loved and once at the beck and call
of these very people, would appear
and cotue into his osn. Could she
have surmised that on two separate
occasions the knight errant of her
thoughts had actually seen ber In her
most ravishing bibless evening tucker,
had driven her to two familiar doors,
taken her nioney with averted face
and without Inspecting the "clock,"
and had passed on to some quiet stand
to dream over ber new glory and read
the latest batch of ads crying for news
of the whereubouts and welfare of self
could she have known these appar
ently Insignificant items In the dally
Hie of the great city, she would have
wept Jier lovelj- eyes put twice over.

ALLIANCE BRIEFS
Beginning; May 1, 1921, Alliance
printers as well as all union printers
in the entire country, will receive a
reluctron in the working; hours, mak
ing the standard week 44 hours in
place of 4K. The agreement for the
decrease was made originally in 1919,
at a time when the industry was in a
most prosperous condition, and inas
much as the employing prin'ers r.re
just as rrcu l of their record of keep-
i ing agreements as the typographical
union, the decrease in hours will be
put into effect despite the slump in
business conditions. As yet, no cut in
wages has been made in the industry,
although this will undoubtedly be done
if conditions are such as to warrant
it. If all un;ons were as sensible as
,the typographical, the union labor
j bugbear wouldn't be half as terrifying
, as it is.
The A. H. Jones company has filed
an appeal in district court from the
decision of the Box Butte county com
missioners, w! :. : :- -! their claim
for $300. Th e Jones company asked
to be reimbursed for expense money
'advanced to Sheriff Miller in Novem
ber, 1920, to po to Portland, Ore., to
arrest A. II. Hutchinson, a former
.salesman, who was charge" 1 with the
theft of a Roo car. The sheriff failed
to brine back his man after a more or
less exciting; extradition hearinpr, the
Orepon governor refusvnrr to honor 'he
extradition papers sent by Governor
McKelvie of Nebraska, and the com
missioners decided, at their January
session, not lo allow the claim. The
commissioners had refused to allow
the shcrilT money to make the trip.
i No explanation was given for reject
ing the claim, but the county board
apparently is standing pat on its the
o.'; thnt the Jones company advanced
the money at its own risk and the
i failure to secure the return of the
! prisoner :s tr.'cen as an evidence that
: the county should not have spent the
money.
Tabulation of the results of the
movie nuestionnaire in the high school
was made by a dozen senior girls, who
themselves classified the answers un
der headings of their own makeup,
The questionnaire was given hurriedly,
only forty minutes being given the
students to make their replies. From
some of the gossip that has been heard
among high school students, it is ap
parent that some of the two hundred
students who handed in replies rather
"fudged" a little in regard to movie
attendance and the amount they spent
on motion pictures, but there were
only a few of them. Several of the
students have expressed themselves as
opposed to movie censorship, and those
evidently feared that the figures were
to be used in the campaign for state
supervision. There were not enough
of these, however, to invalidate the
value of the figures.
J. W. Guthrie last Saturday received
from the Equitable Life Assurance so
ciety checks aggregating $17,000, rep
resenting life insurance carried by the
late Oscar O'Bannon. Proofs of death
were forwarded just one week prior to
the day the checks were received.
Three policies were carried in this
company by Mr. O'Bannon, his wife
receiving $10,022.90; his brother Rich-
nl i; QQ7 fiA and a third check, rettre-
' senting partnership insurance, amount
ing to $l,UUU.18.
George Breckner this week superin
tended the removal of the two old
smokestacks from the city's light and
power plant. These stacks have not
been in use and at a recent council
meeting, the matter of taking them
down was discussed at some length.
One or two council men doubted wheth
er the material would be of sufficient
value to pay the salvage bill, and their
judgment was vindicated. The pipes
were rusted to such an extent that
they are worthless for anything but
junk. It had been thought that they
could not be taken down without con
siderable expense, but Breckner solved
the problem by cutting a section out of
the bottom with his high-powered
torch, after which they were dropped
to the ground. The removal was ac
complished without so much as knock
ing a single brick loose. Carl Kockey
and the superintendent of the water
plant were on hand to render assist
ance and give advice.

COMMENT & DISCOMMENT
Will some kind friend please tell us
what there is about petitions that is so
fascinating. Why is it that the aver
age man and every woman is so will
ing to place his or her name on the
dotted line? Usually a man is care
ful about signing his name. If it were
a contract, and a good one, at that, the
average male would hesitate three or
four davs. and iro over the matter from
I every possible angle, but when it
, comes to petitions he doesn't even take
j the time to read them through. It
doesn t make any difference whether
he knows the one who asks him to
do it. It's an act fully as thoughtless
and automatic as raising the hand to
the mouth to hide a yawn.
The signing of petitions is a na
tionil weakness, fastened upon the
country when it was young and whor
the only way to get anything done
wns by pet'tion, and even then the
plan worked but seldom. The English
kinirs used to pay about as much at
tention to a colonial petition as the
city council has paid to the requests
of the east f driers for water mains and
other improvements. In thope days,
that was believed to be the best w;y
to reach the ear of the king, and per
force that was the method that was
used. Perhaps, were the truth known,
there were a dozen means that would
have been worked with greater ease,
but the United States, despite its
scoffing at President Wilson in the
days just before the war, has always
been fond of note writing. A petition
is a variety of diplomatic note.
Three or four years ago, a univer
' sity instructor in psychology, who had
been worried over the alarming in
j crease in petitions among the student
: body, sought to discover just how
many of the students who so readily
appended their signatures to various
and sundry of these documents really
had any iriea of what they were doing
at the time. His theory was that the
average student signed for one of four
reasons either to get rid of the per
sistent devil who had the petition in
tow j the fear of offending the P. D.
or some of his influential friends; the
fear of being considered a crab; or
because the name of some friend or
some important person was on the
sheet. And so this professor devised
a scheme to test his theory.
The results were even more convinc
ing than he had dared to hope. He
prepared three petitions, something
after this fashion:
P E T I T I ON
To the Honorable Chancellor and
Faculty of the University of Wiscon
sin: The undersigned most respectfully
petition your honorable body to ap
point and designate the afternoon of
Wednesday, the nineteenth of May, A.
D., 1917, as a
HOLIDAY
for the student body and the faculty
of the University of Wisconsin, and to
provide for a proper observance of
same by decreeing that those whose
names are appended to this petition
shall be hung by the neck until dead in
front of the stands at the athletic
field.
We and each of us signing this docu
ment solemnly covenant and agree to
submit to such punishment at the time
and place mentioned.
This, in substance, was the wording
of the petition. Our memory is pos
sibly at fault in one or two minor par
ticulars. It has been some time since
we recall our psychology prof, relat
ing the incident. The interesting fact
about the petition is that it was cir-
culated among the student boriy just .
one day, and over seven hundred stu- j
dents signed the document without!
reading it through. Not one of the j
students to whom it was presented re-1
fused to sign. Every one of them !
looked at the paper, saw the words
"petition" and "holiday" and couldn't
get his name down fast enough.
It doesn't require a test of this kind
to convince the average man that jji
the course of a year he signs a good
many petitions that he wouldn't have,
signed had he taken time to rio any
thinking at all. The average organi
zation endorses a lot of movements
that the members wouldn't approve if ,
they stopped to reflect. The trouble is
that the average gathering dreads a

whole lot of speechuaking or argu
ment, and it saves some personal dis
comfort to vote in favor of the motion
and get the thing over with. That's
why an endorsement from the average
organization on any subject doesn't
carry much weight any more. That's)
the reason that it's so easy to get en
dorsements, by the way. Teople don't
think any more about voting an en
dorsement than they rio about signing
a petition.
' There's a reason, of course, for all
this. During the past week symptoms
of another petition epidemic have been
apparent. Sooner or later someone
will call upon you, saying "I want
your name " anil hand you a pencil to
rio the deed with. When this person
comes, man or woman, don't take the
pencil until you have read the petition.
Think the matter over carefully, and if
you have any quest "on in your mind as
to whether you should lend your in
fluence to the pet scheme of the one
who is carrying the petition around,
give one of thoe fishy stares and
say: "No, thanks." If you want to be
particularly polite, say gently, but
firmly, "I bel'eve I will think this mat
ter over." Ten chances to one, they'll
never see you again. Why should
they? There are a hundred chumps
who are willing to put down their
I names without protest.
Now, this isn't to be taken as a
I blanket condemnation of all petitions.
, Some of them are worth signing. But
I if you readily lenri your support to
everything that comes along, your
support will soon be worth mighty
little. Support, you know, is like
credit the less it's used the stronger
it gets. If everybody used the same
judgment in signing notes that they
do in sijniing mortgages, it wouldn't
take very long before a petition would
mean something. As matters now
stand, it's simply a means of furnish
ing an occupation for somebody who
isn't rushed.
