Marjory’s Little Effort “Do you honestly and truly think It’s good, girls? Are you positive you are not flattering me?" asked Marjory of her literary society, known as "The Eight." "It's splendid,** answered Nan, de sidedly. “Just dear," added Ted. “It's too cute for anything,” said Evarltuß. “I consider It a strong story, even If I say so myself," said Mrs. Morse, Mildred’s sister, while the other four girls added evidence of their appre ciation of Marjory's literary ability. “I’ve read it and reread it bo many times myself that I can’t judgp. but I am glad you girls like it. Mother Bald: ’By all means send it to the pa per, my child,’ but mother has known me so many years that she is in clined to be partial to anything I do, from Irish croohet lace to writing stories. “Brother Bob says that he has read many poor stories in his day, but ‘this is the worst.’ He advises me to save th*e money I spend In paper, envelopes, stamps and typewriting and send it to some poor, worthy family. He says Uncle Sam’s mall department should not be compelled to carry such litera ture. But Bob Is no critic. He was cross, anyway, when I read it to him, because the laundry failed to return his pet white vest In time for Violet’s dinner dance. I don’t care what he says, If you girls really like it.’’ “I love It," said Ted. “If you don’t send that story to a magazine, Mar jory Morton, I'll never speak to you again. Any editor with good judgment will eagerly grasp it.” “Well, you girls know what you know. If you Insist, It goes. All hold your breath, and. If It is accepted, I*ll treat you girls to a fine luncheon.** Ten days later Marjory burst into Mildred’s house with: “Mildred! Mil dred Morton Morsel Cornel Oh, the grandest thing! Gorgeous!** “What Is the matter? Are you en gaged? Who Is the man? Tell me quickly, and stop screaming.** “My story has been accepted. I Just received a check for ten dollars. I*m an authoress. Behold me, your sister, hlarjory Morton! My nnme In print! Wonderful! I could Just hug that beautiful editor! I’ll ’phone the girls and tell the news." “Don't forget the promised lunch eon," said Mrs. Morse. “That’s so,” answered Marjory. “Why did I make such a rash promise? *Ah, pity *tls ’tis true.’*’ “We've made arrangements for me to give my luncheon—to meet at 12 o’clock next Saturday,'* said Mar jory a short while later. “So be on deck with your white beaver hat, black velvet suit and violets. The girls were Just wild with delight. Nan said she was going to fast until then.” “I think I will do likewise,” said Mrs. Morse with a laugh. “Oh, dear, now I’m a literary wom an, I suppose I'll have to muss my hair, and let my skirts sag in the back. No more tube skirts and fancy bags for me!” “Marjory, your success has surely gone to your head. Be calm and placid,” said her sister. Saturday came, as Saturdays will, but this particular Saturday “The rain waa raining all around.” It poured and poured and poured. “Since the time of Noah there has never been such a deluge,” walled Mar jory. “Can’t you postpone your luncheon until the eun rises?” questioned Mil dred. “Decidedly not. It's all ordered. Cant possibly countermand It at this late hour. What shall I do? No one but a duck could go on foot In this storm,** questioned the hostess. “I'm afraid, sis. It will have to be taxis,” weakly suggested Mildred. “Eight girls mean two taxis. It’s dreadful! But I suppose I’ll have to submit to th j Inevitable,” said Mar jory, as she left the room to call up the garage. “As Marjory bade goodby to her friends after the affair was over, Edith tald: "It was a perfectly lovely luncheon, dear.” “Never had a better time,” added Dorothy. “You were a dear to Invite us,” ex claimed Violet. “Hope you write some more stories,” said Eva. While all the rest were adding pro fuse f -ks, Marjory was mentally fig uring ..vcounts. She discovered that the luncheon bill, taxi fares, tips to chauffeur, maids, and small corsage bouquets, amounted to exactly $19.25, while at home rested a paltry ten dol lar check. “Serves me right,” she said to Mil dred that night. *Tm always so im pulsive with Issuing my invitations. “But we did hare a jolly lark. Guess I’ll run upstair* and write another story. No matin— for me this weak.” Every family that has children is liable to have croup; invariably at nighit.
