KEAD THIS FIRST:
Camilla Hoyt, young and beautiful.
falls in love with Refer Anton, fel
low student in an art tchool. She
is the adopted daughter of a wealthy
family, and he la a poor, struggling
sculptor. On their first date Veter
spends most of his money to show
Camilla a pood time, and then decide»
he must give her up because he can
not stand the financial pace. A
chance meeting, houeter, paves the
way tor another date. This time they
walk in the park.
(A : OW GO OS WITH THE STORY)
CHAPTER* t
“YOU THINK 1 era going to art
school for th* novelty of having
something to do.’’ Camilla began, as
they walked through the park, "and
that I haven’t a serious thought in
my head. Vou think 1 am a girl with
a fortune and not an Idea of earn
ing a penny of my own. Thafa the
girl you think I am. But you're
wrong. My classes at Naiional are
only a part of my training to be
come a commercial artist That
means 1 want to work, and have to
work. I'm not dabbling with art for
w pastime, as you have been think
ing. What’s more. I'm not even
planning for a distant future with
the possibility of success as a famous
artist who creates beautiful and last
ing things. 1 intend to commercialize
whatever talent 1 have Just as soon
as possible. Covers for magazines
that will be glanced at ind tossed
aside. Illustrations for stories that
will be read and forgotten, fashions
that are whims for a day. glaring
advertisement* for linoleum, tooth
paste and whatnot. In fact. I’ll do
anything 1 have a chance to Cry.
Now you know." She stopped
abruptly and the soft silence of the
night closed in about them. Isolating
them.
Finally Peter said. “Know what?
I'm glad to know that you are am
bitious to do something for your
self. and all that, but what's that
got to de with—with my forgetting
you and your being blue?”
“Because I'm Just a poor tittle rich
girl who has to earn ray own living
after the drat of September, next.’’
Peter was puzzled. "But you are
the Hoyt girl, aren't you? 1 supposed
you were only dabbling in art for
amusement. Are you realty serious?"
“Just as serious as my situation.
I really am a little frightened. Mr.
Anson —about earning my living. I
mean. Sometimes I get to wondering
bow I could be of any service that
would be worth money to people."
“But your fortune—"
“1 have no fortune. And my name
is not Hoyt, ready.”
He shook his head In bewilderment
“I'm still floundering."
”1 don't mind telling you all about
It. if you still care to Hsten."
"I'm very anxious to know."
Camilla turned on the bench, fac
ing him. and began earnestly, like
a child reciting a Story. "To begin
at the beginning. 1 am one of a
family of nine children—the middle
one. My real name Is l»renz But 1
didn't know that until three years
ago. when I had been riding In the
rlouds for fourteen years and sud
denly had to come down to earth
in a parachute. 1 almost got tangled
up In the strings and things, but I
dually landed feet first and looked
around to see where I was. It wasn't
such a beautiful place as I had left,
either."
“But how did you get up In the
=louds in th# first place?" Peter In
terrupted. aroused with her quaint
mgtaphor.
"Oh. yes. I’m getting ahead of my
itory. I went up when I was four
years old. It was this way. My
people had come to America before
I was born, and they hadn't done
so well here at that tlm*. It seems.
Anyway, once when I was tour years
old. a volunteer social relief worker
came to our house to tell mother
bow to put more water In the soup
kettle mo that she could feed nine
mouths with half rations Os course,
my mother having lived In southern
Kuropa, where many of tbs people
Marriages And Divorces

Washington, July 18.—The Bureau

1,060.095 marriages performed in the

These figures represent a decrease of
68,477 or 6.1 per cent. There was a
decrease of 8.4 per cent from 1926 to

ami the wealthy Mrs. Hoyt never
having known how soup was made—
she could do that. Anyway. It seems
that 1 was quite a pfietty child—in
fact, a beautiful child —"
"1 don’t doubt that," he Interrupted
again.
Camllljt dismissed that with a ges
ture of Impatience. " —and th# rich
lady who had no children of her own
was so captivated by me that she
came to see us again and wanted
to take mo home The attraction
was mutual. I liked the grand lady
and wanted to go home with her
when she suggested lb My parents
objected at first, but she finally per
suaded them to agree It was my
mother who did the objecting, it be
ing my father’s policy that there
were plenty more where I came from
and he already had more mouths
than he could feed, anyway. Mrs.
Hoyt was to sdopt me until 1 be
came of age. She promised to do
everything for me that money could
do: private schools, social advan
tages. travel and special education.
I would be her daughter until 1 was
twenty-one. Then I should decide for
myself what I wished to do. But I
would not be an heir to the Hoyt
estate."
"But why not?" asked Peter.
"Adopted children usually Inherit es
tates from foeter parents, especially
if they have no direct heirs.”
Camilla gestured with the elo
quence of her laitin heritage. "Don’t
ask me riddles. Why does a fish
swim? Who knows? Tills was some
whim of an idea, no doubt. Perhaps
they feared 1 should waste my in
heritance on my large family, or
they would take it away from me.
As 1 said, I rode In the clouds for
years. You can Imagine what It was

a shock. Then I learned that my fos

“I do," he declared vehemently.
"Because I’ve been wanting terribly
to know you ever since the first
time 1 say you—but I didn't dare to

“Why do you say that?” shs asked
with surprise.
"Because I am only Peter Anson,

A little groan of horror escaped
her. "And I let you spend all that

voice almost sobbed.
He laughed shortly. "That was

Because of numerous requests for
this information, the raltlve number
of marriages to each divorce has been
computed. In 1931, for the United
States as a whole. 5.8 marriages for
each divorce were reported, as against
5.9 in 1930. The District of Columbia
and New York State, each having but
one cause for absolute divorce, re
ported 21.7 and 22.4, respectively,
while the rates in the other States
ranged from 12.1 marriages to each
divorce in Georgia to 1.5 marriages
to each divorce in Nevada.
The changes in the various States
as regards the number of divorcee
compared with the year 1930. ranged
from a decrease of 26.4 per cent in
Mississippi to an increase of 101 6 per
cent in Nevada. Increased rates for
divorces were reported in 11 other
Statei, New Hampshire, Connecticut,
New York, New Jersey, Wisenonutn,
North Dakota, Mouth Dakota. Georgia,
Kentucky, Wyoming, and Utah. Ths
number of divorces granted in the
District of Columbia more than dou
bled due to increased court facilities.
The rate was not computed, hovreier.
as the number rnpoited for 1"30 was
less than 100.
