"Quite the lady, aren't you? But you weren't in Henderson. I never thought then--" "Don't bring that up," Sidney said. "I'm not proud of it." ''You remember the week of the fair, though, don't you? We had a good time. And we could again. Even better." "As we get better acquainted?" "Sidney," he said, getting to his feet, "why be so stubborn? I feel about you just the way I did--" She glared.

Her skirt was sadly rumped and icr muslin blouse a wreck. Fixing her hair at the mirror, she saw the apple core on the dresser top and the whisky bottle, its contents depleted by several inches.

Ace's satchel was missing. Weak and cold, she ate the apple core and swallowed a little of the whisky. She walked home from the interurban terminus, and there was Hannah, in middy blouse and blue serge skirt, running toward her down Clark street. "Sidney, you were out all night!" "Yes, I was.

It's obviously contempt of the committee." Brewster said thzft it was "regrettable" that the subcommittee was sidetracked by his clashes with Hughes, but that the investigation was "apparently moving forward now on the right track-seeing what became of the $40,000,000 from which the government received nothing." Regarding Hughes' charges that Brewster suggested he would call off the investigation if the plane I manufacturer would agree to merger of his Trans-World Airlines with Pan-American, the Maine Republican said that he hadn't given much thought to suing Hughes for libel because he was too busy with testimony before the subcommittee.
