Someday I'll find you! All the luck Martin. Idiot. Of course. Molly hadn't bothered to type the ship name on the copy she's had before. This was the original.

She sprang up. She would wire the Esthonia. "You forgot to sign your last name. Eileen Gardner." She wrote it down; she sprang up to run and find Molly. She gripped the message tight.

She took her handbag it would cost as much as a new dress, but what of that? She went to hunt up Molly. It took some time. Finally she discovered her, taking letters for Mrs. Weigand. She waited impatiently, until the last enthusiastic letter was done, quivering in the doorway.

Molly, glancing up, nodded, said to Mrs. Weigand, "I'll be goin'lo type these now," and slid her arm through Eileen's. "What the trouble, dear, want something?" "I want this telegram sent to the Esthonia, please. Will you?" "Crazy? You can't answer fans that cable from cruise ships, nitwit. Cost a million.

What are you, a concealed millionaire?" "Never mind what I am. That was a a friend of mine I mean." "You mean a pickup, sweet. You need Aunt Molly to keep you on the straight and narrow, I can see. Come along." They found a paper. Molly whisked to the shipping page with an experienced hand.

"Sorry to blight your girlish hopes, Eileen." "What do you mean?" Molly pointed with a sharp bright nail. 'S. S. Esthonia cruise ends, New The date was yes terday. 'Return trip after dock ing begins Eileen's eyes dazzled.

He hadn't been fooling. He had gone to New Zealand. By now he was ashore "I don't care," she said. "Send it, and mark it 'Hold'." "On the chance the mysterious Martin goes back to the ship?

"I think it's a lot to do for a fan, but you'll learn better as you know more of fans. Some make you the great big romance of their life, but, darling, they aren't the kind that take luxury cruises; it's the lonely men with isolated jobs, and the women who don't see people, or kids." "I know. Anyhow, send it." "If you promise not to keep this up. You'llbe wasting all you own if you answer every boy that ever met you for a minute and got excited enough over you be ing a radio singer to wire you."

They went very well very well, indeed." "Oh, did they?" At another time this would have excited her. "Very well." He trotted beside them, like a child. He mechanically took Eileen's hand as they walked, as he was in the habit of taking his wife's. He probably, Eileen thought, felt as if something was I mm jiilii rf (with added Iron) to help you go smiling thru such "difficult days."

April 21, exclusively in HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH NOW TO RAKE IT OUT ALL THEN WE'LL ROLL THE EGG OVER ON THE COALS. YESTEKDAY: At last Eileen Gardner has given Jordan Estill bis walking papers.

Jordan had objected when she took a poorly paid radio job. and had arranged for her to sing concerts and to marry him. But now Eileen has convinced Jordan that he must wait a long time, probably fruitlessly, and sent him away. And the reason she could do it was a radiogram irom a man named Martin whom she has seen once, and never will forget. Chapter Ten Answer For Martin Eileen stood still in his hold with that passivity which is more of a denial than any resistance.

His arms dropped and she moved a little away from him. "Good bye Jordan. Good luck," she said. She went into the little cottage. She took care not to be early enough at breakfast to say goodbye to the party.

She, unseen, saw them driving oil. Anders had seen to it that she was in the front seat beside Jor dan. bne went in again. It was one of the cottages which was had to be, of course furnished with a piano. She sat down went to work on that night's songs with her little traveling clock facing her.

Later, her nervous fingers BY MARP.ARFT WIDDFMFR missing with his hand unoccu pied. "You must come hear them. What about now?" "Oh, not now," Molly inter rupted. "Something I have to work out with her, if she wants to get this afternoon's songs right. Eileen, who wanted to get back to their place and be quiet, looked at Molly gratefully.

They walked down the little path that led to the girls' cottage and on past it, to the Weigands'. Mr. Weigand, with a start, let go Eileen's hand and trotted absently on to his own place. Molly yawned. "Just one thing after another.

Lunch in half hour. Program. Switchboard. Bolt out to see Mom. Bolt back.

I haven't had time to fix up miy dresser. even, or the table. Mind if I put some things on it? It's as much yours as mine." Eileen shook her head. Molly dived into a suitcase. "I dumped a lot of things in here when My Lady felt we had to part," she said.

"I like to have Ris where I can look at him." She straightened herself, a cou ple of framed photographs in either hand, and came to the table which ran along the wall, and gave the place its look of a living room. She smoothed the Indian embroidered crash runner and set out her photographs, "Doesn't your boy friend hate your being out her so far?" she said casually. "You mean Jordan Estill? He's an old friend. He isn't my boy friend in the way you mean." "Honest? Well, better put his picture up, anyway." "Why?" Eileen came over to stare at the man Molly was set ting in the place of honor at one end. She was obviously leaving the other for Eileen's possessions.

It was a young dark face, handsome, plainly foreign. "Who is this? He's awfully good looking." "Isn't he? The swellest kid. He's Greek. Aristides Papoulos. What a name, eh? His brother's Nicholas, which isn't so bad.

Ris and Nick. Nick's married, and has a little delicatessen that isn't going so bad. Ris works with him, but he's plannin' to open a little florist shop you know one of those holes in a wall. "He and Nick are going to take a shop together, next fall; each take half, have a partition put up. That's Nick's idea and mine.

Ris is a sweetheart, but he takes pushin'. Dreamy, likes poetry, that sort." Molly's face was flushing as she talked eagerly op. "And is he the one?" Molly said "Well sort of. We can't get married till things are better for him. Right now I'm makin' more than he is, or rather the job I'm pickih' up again when I go back to New York pays more.

And he's the kind that doesn't want to live on his wife. He said he awful bright he said, 'Molly, you know how I am. If I marry a girl who earns, I don't earn, I dream, I slide along, maybe I sit down on her. She hates me, "What did you say?" Molly's red cheeks were redder "I told him I couldn't hate him. Not matter what.

But I guess he's right. And as I don't intend to stop workin', the florist shop is O.K. with me. He's nearly got enough saved. He can borrow some.

By next spring, maybe, even earlier." She stood back and looked at Ris again. Bossy red haired Molly would be just the wife for him, Eileen thought. She had probably done most of the courting. And that took her back to the memory of the night she had met Martin. Miss Willesdon.

Her im passioned: "Women have a right to tell men, honestly, if they love them Men have a right to let women support them if it chances that way." Molly didn't beliVe in that. At least, not the second clause. She came back from her daydream. Molly had spoken sharply to her, a second time. Haven't you any photographs?" "Why why, yes.

A lot." Eileen spoke confusedly. "I simply hadn't bothered, I've been so busy. Does it matter?" Molly turned and faced Eileen, tun. "Yes." It does matter. If Jordan Estill isn't your sweetie, nut his picture up anyway, and let the bunch think so.

Go a little coy or something about it. Or some body else, depends on what sort of a face you like. I advise it." Molly's Irish voice was serious. It was emphatic. Eileen "said.

"Look here, what is this about? You want me to look popular?" "Just an old meanie, darling, taking the joy out of life. Eileen, the dope on this situation out here is that the girls do it the radio stuff, I mean for just one thing. The art they live for. That's Martha Weigand's story, and she sticks to it." "Well then, sorry to be dumb, but why the photographs?" "Because then Martha won't 77 I 'Teen Topics The parade of preening peacocks on the Avenue. Corsages upside down.

There was the Manhattan Easter "carnival" we had to leave behind, with a "side show" on every corner, a "big attraction" on every block. Ice skating in the Sunken Plaza at Radio City.

How DO they manage without falling off their perilous perch? Philadelphia looked politely con "light ily" speaking. It's streets straight, it's illumination sensible. Just outside of the Brotherly Love City we flew over a field fire, that looked like melted gold flame in a jet blackout. Made us think of London air raid fires.

Suddenly Lancaster loomed out of the night looking like a diamond with a dazzling sweep of body, and swish of forked finned tail. The highway to Harrisburg looked very zig zaggy.

At this point our "true" hostess decided we should have a little snack before landing. She put a pillow on our lap and on top of that a dainty dish of fin ger tip sandwiches, assorted and delicious. The accompanying cof fee was perfection in hot liquid form. We were so absorbed in our snacking we completely missed the Harrisburg skyline.

Check on Charm Beauty and You By PATRICIA LINDSAY 1 To banish foot pain try alternating hot and cold dunkings as circulation pepper uppers, and massage after with a good cream lotion. This handy bottle doesn't slip, even though your hands are wet. Hot and Cold Feet Dunkings Banish Spring Aches and Burns If flowered hats and navy blue Also be certain that your hose are do not convince us that spring has arrived again then our feet will do the job for feet in spring seem to want to burst from their shoe bindings to walk on the soft, fresh green turf. Foot aches and burn ings are so common during this season that today's column will be devoted entirely to suggestions for foot care.

First of all it is a good idea to get your spring and summer shoes a width wider or a half size larger than your winter shoes. That, allows a bit for normal foot expansion. Never wear new hose with new shoes without first rinsing the hose of their dressing. The friction caused by new leather insoles and the dressing in the hose can create a very uncomfortable burn. long enough short hose restrict the action of the toes and cause a Synthetic hose seem to be more binding than the silk hose and ma women are discovering that they require a size larger when they purchase synthetic weaves.

I take it for granted that all my steady readers give their feet a thorough pedicure once a week. That keeps toenails the proper length and shape and prevents any ingrown nail or hangnail, or callous from causing misery. Even the hardest and oldest of callous can be erased by a steady application of liquid cuticle remover, after a foot soaking, and a gentle rubbing with pumice stone or the softest of boards. Do not attempt ever to cut away a callous a' one time remove it gradually. If you do suffer with callouses it would pay you to investigate va 'rious shoe lasts.

Properly fitting 'shoes which give your feet ade quate support should not permit a callous to form unless you have' acquired poor walking habits and turn on your feet instead of landing on them squarely. If that is the case exercise daily in your bare feet around a room until you train your feet to walk correctly. A Relieving Treatment When your feet rebel against shoe restrictions, or are fatigued from much use, try this relieving treatment. Fill one basin with hot water in which is dumped one cup of epsom salts. In another basin have cold water.

Soak your feet first in the hot bath then chill them in the cold water. Thus alternate dunkings until every pain and ache has been drawn out. If you are very rushed you may apply a stimulating foot, lotion directly after these dunkings, but it is better for you to first brush your feet vigorously with soap and hot water not forgetting the soles. Such a brushing is most invigorating and feet get too few of them. I am convinced that every woman should have on hand a bottle of specially mixed foot lotion.

Such a lotion contains healing and soothing ingredients which the normal run of hand or face creams cannot boast.
