CHAPTkK is
"THU 18 MISS VADE.”
“When can I sec you?”
It »as Roger’s voice.
She was silent u minute, getting
hold of her voice, her leaping heart.
After all. It wouldn't hurt just to see
him. She'll told him she belonged to
Manny. She so wanted to touch him,
to speak to him for a little while!
And she would raise a barrier.
I .should like to see you - any
time. I’lease bring Esther."
’must I?” His voice was re
luctant. chivalrously obedient.
"Yes, please.’’
“We’ll be there in a little over an
hour.'
She was aghast at the immediacy
of it. She had forgotten, too, the new
white network of motor roads all
over the country. She turned, her
clyeks burning, to tell Giuseppina to
prepare luncheon for three. She ran
upstairs childishly, to dress herself
all over again: a black and white
satin sport suit that had Just come
home, that she’d thought too severe
and extreme. She brushed her hair
back from her face, bound it in tight
plaits across the back of her neck.
He should see that she was modern,
changed, not the romantic girl of the
platform, with her planned pastel
softness and romance. She moved to
and fro through the house, unable to
do anything but watch for the m.
Finally she went down aad waited,
like a child, at the gate.
She did not see them when they
came, after all; she had been watch
ing the road eastward, and they came
from the direction of New York
They had crossed from the new
Hutchinson River Parkway to the
shore road and driven back toward
Pelham. She turned at tbe sound of
the motor. A thin little steady-eyed
girl in a brown mesh coat and skirt
was springing out, running toward
her.
“Oh. this is simply wonderful! To
think tbe Pre-War Lady is really
the Emilia I was brought up on. and
Manuel Rose was a friend of Roger's.
I’m simply swollen with pride!”
She Ignored with the aplomb of a
middle-aged woman the night on the
Hudson, when she had seen Emilia,
frightened and despairing. Perhaps.
Emilia thought, girls today took that
sort of thing in the day’s work. She
bent and kissed Esther, holding her
tight. Here was someone she might
love; Rolan’s baby sweetheart,
Roger's niece, this wise changeling
who had been, twelve years ago. the
brown little rod-capped Esther of
four.
Then she dared look at P.oger.
He stood waiting, with the smile
she remembered, for the two to be
out of each other's arms. She put her
Birthday Party
Enjoyed Friday
On last Friday evening from 7:30
to 10 o'clock, Misses Margaret and
Frances Wilson entertained a number
of their friends at a birthday party,
celebrating their fourteenth and
twelfth birthdays, respectively.
The guests arrived at 7:30, bringing
with them-gifts for both girls.A s they
arrived, they were invited in to the
large living room which was very
cheerful with a bright open fire, soft,
pretty lights, cut flowers, ferns and
begonias. After all the guests hrd ar
rived, many games and contests were
enjoyed. Several prizes were awarded
to the lucky winners of the contests.
Mrs. S. E. Wilson then invited the
guests into the dining room where
flowers were arranged to carry out
the color scheme of pink and green.
There were two long tables. Ip the
center of one was a beautiful center
piece made of fourteen small cakes
arranged to represent fourteen years
for Miss Margaret Wilson. On the
other table the centerpiece contained
12 cakes, representing the twelve
years of Miss Frances Wilson. The
cakes were decorated with pink can
dles.
Mrs. Wilson, assisted by Mrs. C. C.
O’Brien, Mrs. Garland Norwood and
Mrs. I* J. Shanks, served delicious
ice cream and cake.
The invited guests present weie the
girl’s grandparents, Mr, and Mrs. J.
L. Wilson, and Mrs. Emma Evans and
the following children: Edith Tippett,
Eva Mae Knott, Evelyn O’Brien. Lily
Lordon Norwood. Mildred and Mary
Hunter Hicks, Rebbecca Shanks. Al
len Sneed, Finley Belle, Basil Knott,
James Hicks, William Shepherd
O’Brien, Taylor Shotwell and Robert
Edward Shanks.
About 10 o’clock, the guests left for
their respective homes, each wishing
both girls many more happy birth
days.—Reported.

Seen by daylight, be was more
what she remembered. He had on the
sort of dark clothes he had always
worn. The thick, smooth, fair hair
was very little darker. The clear,
steady blue eyes were unchanged, ex
cept that there was no shyness In
their regard now, only calmness and
kindness. A little broader, perhaps;
his manner and carriage more that
of the assured man of the world,
his presence more dominating. But
the same Roger; all the old kindness
and strength, with only the added
aura of force and ease, of personality
made a supple weapon to his hand.
He was the great gentleman the
strong, inarticulate hoy had been
bound to become. And his hand,
strong and thrilling and tight on
hers, felt as If it would never let
her go
“Milly—” be said, and could say
no more for a moment.
"Oh, Roger, Roger! Oh, I am so
glad to see you!”
She hoped the cry had not be
trayed her. But tt had not. He was
silent still; presently, still holding
her hand, he came in. Emilia tried
to be casual, a good hostess.
"You’re both staying for luncheon
—you must see my little house—"
"I don’t eat luncheon." said Esther
placidly. "So I’ll stray in the garden
while you and Roger eat and reune.
I couldn’t bear to look at chops, I’d
he sunk.”
Emilia looked surprised, till Roger
explained. "I don’t suppose tt will
hurt her. They all do it. You come In
for one rourse, young lady, or I’ll
report you to the doctor.”
Esther laughed and slid out And
it would be some tlm* before lunch
eon. Was Esther leaving deliber
ately? •<
But as Roger came close, taking
both her hands again, Emilia forgot
everything but the’strong, thrilling
touch of those hands, making her
blood hurry through her body, mak
ing her heart go hard and fast.
“Oh. it’* *e long, so dreadfully
long.” she said passionately, forget
ting everything but that, after years,
here Was her own Roger, back with
her again.
"Emilia, darling, how could you do
it?” he said, not angrily, but with a
tearing intensity in his deep voice.
“We all grieved for you so ”
“I’m sorry,” she said like a child.
"I shouldn’t have —I wasn’t myself--"
“Do you want to tell me about it?”
She had forgotten how wise, how
gentle and kind he was. He made her
sit down on the long davenport. He
kept her hand. Hts eyes dwelt on her
—how could she have recalled them

looked down at his hand, holding
hers. The square, brown engineer’s
hand was not changed, nor the sev
enteenth-century carnelian signet on
the little finger. She touched It. with
its known Intaglio, childishly, as she
answered with her eighteen-year-okl
docility. Everything was dimmed hut
the delight of seeing and being close
to Roger. It bothered her a little to
talk. She wanted to look at him and
feel him there.

the one before the oue I really took.

He did not. All his calm, his steadi

sort of national amphitheater, aioplng
down to the railroad tracks, so that
several tnousand people could both
see and hear Mr. Roosevelt speaking
irom the platform oi his private car
on the rear of the special train.
Indications now are that fully 10,-
000 people will be on hand at the State
Fair grounds tomorrow morning when
the Roosevelt special arrives from At
lanta, while those in charge of ar
rangements would not be surprised if
even more are present. The staff and
junior officers of the State College R.
O. T. C. will act as a guard of honor
and form a line about the rear car aa
soon as the train comes to a stop. The
State College military band, under the
direction of Major Price, will also be
present and furnish the music for the
occasion.
Careful plans are being made in or
der t>o avoid any traffic congestion.
Chairman Pou says. All through traf
fic over Route 10 passing in front of
tbe air Grounds at this point will be
prohibited, and routed over Western
Boulevard that runs south of this
point. All cars approaching the FaJr
Grounds from the east will be parked
in space provided on the Stale Prison
farm just east of the fair grounds
proper. No cars whatever will be per
mitted within the area between the
State Fair grounds proper and the
railroad tracks where the special train
will stop. All cars coming from the
west will be required to enter the fair
grounds at the western entrance and
park inside the enclosure.
Because of the number of people ex
pected and the time required to park
cars, all those who are planning on
coming to hear and see Mr. Roosevelt
are urged to be at the fair ground*
by not later than 9:30 Tuesday mora
ing. ' _
Arrangements for handling the traf
fic are in charge of Captain Charles
D. Farmer, commander of the State
Highway Patrol, who will have at
least 50 highway patrolmen .present
and be assisted by some 25 additional
patrolmen from the Raleigh police
department. Sheriff Numa T. Tdfner
has also agreed to detail about 50 de
puty sheriffs in plain clothe*, who
will mingle in the crowd and guard
against pick-pockets and other crook*
who might decide that the crowd
would aaake “good pickings.”
In order to provide for those who do
not want to drive their own automo
biles out to the fair ground* or who
do not have car* to drive out, tbe com
mittee ha* made arrangement* with
the bus companies here to run as
many buses as are needed from Ra-

The officials welcoming commute*
with Josephus Daniels as chairman,
will join the .special train at Hamlet
at 7:45 Tuesday morning and thus be
on the train when it arrives here.
This committee will be composed of
some ”0 persons and include some
eight or ten newspaper correspondents
who have been invited to joint the
party. The delegation that went to At
lanta for the luncheon given Mr.
Roosevelt there Monday, consisting of
Governor and Mrs. O. Max Gardner,
Senator J. W. Bailey. Smator Cam
eron Morrison, Robert R. Reynolds,
Democratic candidate for senator; J.
C. B. Ehringhaus. Democratic candi
date for governor; Chairman J. Wal
lace Winborne, of the State Demo
cratic Executive Committee; Mrs.
Thomas O’Berry, vice chairman, and
John Bright Hill, secretary of the
committee, will also be on the special
train. These dignitaries left here Sun
day night for Atlanta, having been In
vited to the luncheon there for Mr.
Rooeevelt by Senator J. S. Cohen, of
Georgia, Atlanta publisher. They will
board Governor RooseveL’s special
train there tonight and return to Ra
lrigh as members of his party.
Owing to tbe fact that the present
plans will make it unnecessary for
the special train to back into the sta
tion here, which usually requires about
ten minutes, it is hoped that the train
may be abl> to remain at the fair
grounds for more than 20 minute* —
perhaps 30 minutes- and that as a re
sult Mr. Roosevelt may be able to
speak a little longer or have time to
meet a larger number of North Caro
lina Democrats than otherwise would
be the case.
At any rate, it Is agreed that even
if Mr. Roosevelt stops in North Caro
lina and R&Jeigh for only 20 minutes,
he is going to get a reception he will
remember for at least 20 years.
