Peter is a young, struggling sculptor trying to win a competition for a scholarship abroad and Camilla ts the adopted daughter of a wealthy fam- fly, “She is not’'to inherit ‘money when she comes of age and so is studying. commercial art in the hope of Janding an agency job.

Peter and Camilla are recon- clled, Avis invites them to a party, at which she introduces Peter to well-known artists and public men. (Now Go On With The Story) CHAPTER XLII. . Terry rebuked Camilla gently, when he danced with her. “Aren't you. a little sorry for the-way you deceived and then deserted us all? I'll wever be the same again, since I lost you," he sighed. He was probably ag sincere as he could be about anything, but Camilla knew that he could not have been deeply affected. “Perhaps it is just as well you are changed,” she taunted him, laughing. “Besides, I didn’t desert the crowd just because I married Peter. It was all arranged that I) should soon drop out of your life long before that.” _ “Not if you had listened to me. I've tried to persuade you to marry me for two years. What's this ab- surd thing I hear about your work- ing?” “Tam, and it's not the least bit absurd. It's wonderful. I never was s0 happy-in my life.’’ “But. that’s not fair, you taking care of yourself when you are mar- tied.* What's a husband for?” “Oh, I'm saving ‘him for the fu- ture,” she laughed. -“It isn't that Peter can’t take care of me,” she defended him. “I just won't. inter- fere with. his work, now, when every day {s so important to his career. Be- sides, I have my own ambition to ‘work out and I don’t want him to interfere with that, either.” “What is an ambition? Do tell me, because I should like to recognize one if I saw it, Is it a disease, and can it be cured?" Terry ridiculed. “Oh, I could tell you all about it, (the governor ig | enthus! = SRS SE = z pe 4 but you never would be able to rec- Edison’s Drei i @ : A Y am Coming Tru 2 ognize the symptoms.

But did yon never try to estimate what it represents of thought and effort, to “provide you|: with so much?” ‘Why should I bother about that ?, One person’s thought and effort are enough to wante on it.

All‘her old friends were delighted to see her again, Camilla discovered. They chided her for her neglect of ‘them, were curious about her work, doubted or admired her seriousness. Shé. gave them’ no details concern- ing her position, only that she did ad copy for Weeks and Bowman. She did not.wish Alexander Hoyt to dis- cover at this crucial time that she held his fate at the point of her pencil. The .test would begin to prove Itself soon. ‘The first copy had gone out and was already on ‘the presses, would appear in magazines all over the ation within the following week. Any“ upward trend of the Wheat heart Cereal business would mani- fest itself very soon if the juvenile public “accepted her Tiny Tots with asm. Both Weeks and ‘Bowman were optimistic. “Of course,” Mr.!Bowman had conceded, “we can't’ expect enor- mous réturns under . present. condi- tions. But if the idea catches on’ there is bound to be a decided im- ‘| ;provement.” He was more generous with his praise than Mr. Weeks, chuckled over the exploits’ of father and mother Tiny Tot and their large family, thelr friends and relatives. There were, ‘among many others, Uncle Joe, the one-legged sailor, who told the children. such’ fascinating tales;Aunt Min to whom all the children took their troubles, to be effaced with delectable Wheatheart Cereal cookies, and muffins; old Graspy, the miser who hoarded gold and frightened the children from his wretched hut that lured them with Its strange and fearful reports. They were so tiny that they slept in pea- nut shells and, made a meal of one cereal flake, were delighted over a treat ofa grain of sugar, made a palace of a cereal carton. While Camilla worked at her sketches, she lived in a different world, alone. Even Peter never en- tered there, except to poke his head into her thoughts and.-entice her away for a few moments at times. She lived her hours there with the children of her fancy and often left them with genuine regret. During those first weeks, she was so. engrossed that she worked late at the office many times, She dis- covered that when the pleasant, spa- cious rooms became silent for the night, she accomplished more work with better results. It was even more satisfactory than working at the apartment, which she. did sometimes, also. No conflicting thoughts or du- [ties interrupted her, and she grew to appreciate more her wisdom in living apart from Peter so that he]. might work alone, also. She was more concerned over the fact that Avis ‘had come to live across the hall from Peter, than she |admitted. Not 20 much because she | was jealous of Avis’ interest in Peter, |but because she feared that her | presence there would take from ‘Peter just what she had sacrificed so much to provide for him, his pri- vacy. Fortunately, for her peace of mind, Peter never told her how many times Avis interrupted his work and in: sisted upon his relaxing for an hour in her company. These omissions. in his confidences were not so inten- tional as they were natural. He had precious ttle. time to discuss any- hing with Camilla in those days and, Uke all men, he did not realize him- self how many hours he did pass in Avis’ company. They were so casual persed with working hours, as shé purposely arranged, that he. was scarcely aware that he saw more of Avis than he did his wife. So, on the’ night of ner reception, Avis took possession 6f Peter and ignored Camilla so casually that no one*noticed or resented it. Everyone departed with gushing thanks for a marvelous evening, and vaguely im- pressed with the memory that Avis and ‘Peter were their hostess and host. With Peter’s studio across the| hall and he a new tenant in the colony, also, it did not seem at all improbable. ‘Avis, insisted that Camilla’ and Peter remain until the last guests had gone, then she turned her at- tention wholly upon Camilla. “I can't thank you enough for helping me so beautifully this evening, dear. It was too sweet of you, the way you got people together and helped to entertain them. Do stay with me for ‘awhile, and while Tillie clears up the worst.of the wreckage, we can have a bite together. I’m sure you didn't have’ time to eat—I know I didn't. But.I think everyone -did have a good time, don’t you?" anxiously. “No doubt about that,” Camilla as- sured her with sincerity. “But I didn’t, do so much. I had a good time, myself.” “['m so happy if you did. I’m afraid I rather neglected you, de- pending on you ot help me as I did. It kept me pretty busy, telling every- one about Peter. Did you notice how popular he was?” she asked, pleased and imperson: : “Oh,.I say!" Peter objected. “It was you who were popular, and they listened, to what you said about me Jbecause. you were talking.” “Isn't that just like .him?”.-she asked Camilla with exasperation, as if\they shared his idiosyncrasies with @ common indulgence of them. She! passed glasses of punch and a plate of » “You will be sending me a board ‘bill some day,” Peter remarked care- lessly; “if I don’t: quité’ dating over here.” Camilla looked up quickly. ‘Avis laughed. “He has the most exaggerated ‘sense of obligation I ever met. Just because he eats a meal here and I make him stop work long enough to drink a cup of coffee occasionally, he wants me to punch ticket for him. Actually, Camilla, with working so hard to finish that figure, I believe he would starve if someone didn’t tell him it was time to eat. And since you are not here to do it, I've taken it upon myself to watch over him a little. We don’t want our prize winner to col- lapse at the last minute, do we?” “Oh, you women!” Peter made a deprecating gesture. “You do like to baby us. That's because you don’t know ‘what it means to apply your- self to something that means more to you, than your physical comifort.” Oh, didn’t she, thought Camilla, But Peter was talking to Avis—not| Thus to her. Unconsciously, he had de- veloped the habit of ending the eve- ing there in Avis’ rooms, eating a bite and’ discussing most everything with her. “T am glad you take such good care of him,” Camilla offered bravely, but she grudged Avis even one pre- cious privilege of serving Peter. “By the way,” he changed'the sub- ject, “we haven't named the figure yet.” Actually, he-had ‘only discussed the matter with Avis, but his com- ment included both, girls. , (To Be Continued) Scouts Of 40 Countries To “Australia ~Boy Scouts of the Empire and some 40 other countries are expected to attend the Jamboree to be held im Australia, Dec, 27-Jan..7, 1935; ~ Monarch butterflies. have seen 100 miles at sea. been Ask Mother— She Knows Mother took this medicine be+ fore and after the babies came; - LYDIA E.
