By KEITH KENYON.
Aftor a residence of 29 years in
New York Weldon prided himaitlt
upon iin utier lack of sentiment lie
lived on West End avenue with his
mother and two bisters lie 'had suc
ceeded to his futher's placo in the
trm at the hitter's death and was al-
isayi alluded to as "Junior" Weldon.
He hud never known want or worry.
Jlo was a rather Btolid clean shaven
healthy young fellow with a Benso of
humor and uo enemies.
Every evening sftcr dlnnnr It was
his custom to take a short Btroll with
his two bUerlbuon terriers along Riv-
erside drive. And Into this quiet
hour one nijjlit In October there in-
truded the stream of a woman.
Weldon stopped and waited. It had
come from the strip of jiark below the
drive. Almost immediately ho saw a
fcirl running along the path and as
he looked she beckoned to him faintly.
Th stairs were at. One Hundred and
Second street. With the dogs at his
heels lie sprinted back and readied
her side as she stood leaning Against
a tree white as death and half uncon-
scious. "What's the matter?" he demanded.
"My father:" she breathed. "I am
afraid he is dead."
Weldon did not quite realize that
he was support in; her as ho led her
back to the sent half hidden by the
tall shrubbery. Some way too he was
ciitchiru her broken words there had
been no work they were without food
or money her father had been vary
)".! I.e tvi;s!:cd to die.
"Don't worry" ho told her. "I'll look
ul't-r verythiii;;.'"
Whi h after all was only his in-
stinct of e!ieiency. Ha was used to
looking out for everything and felt
that he could handle any situation
even this. Hut ;b he stood over the
old m.iri with his handsome highbred
face and clo-rd eyes be had his first
lesson in what life may do to its chil-
dren. "He's not f!.--nrl" he assured her
listening to the mint heartbeats. "It's
exhaustion."
".Starvation" the girl insisted bit-
terly. Weldon saw a policeman approach-
ing. Just bow ho did it he never quite
remembered but a taxi was nailed and
be hud both of thorn the ?rl and her
fat hi r placed in it. and took them
straight to bis home. It was an ad-
venture the first he had rer run into
and it Interested him keenly.
Viola Mcl.ian sho told them her
nanm was. They had lo:;t their home
in Maryland and had come North
thinking to find some sort of employ-
ment. Her father had been a me-
chanical draftsman. His health had
failed and she could Dot leave him.
While her father was slowly gaining
his health in an upper chamber with
a good trained nurse to caro for him
Viola tried to make hersjlf useful to
Mrs. Weldun. The two daughters were
In college and gradually the old lady
began to rely on her. "Junior"- saw
and smiled to himself. - And the days
drifted by for a month until one eve-
ning as lie. was ready for his ralk
she followed him out Into the wide
entrance hall dressed fr walking.
"May I go with you?"
' Kathor." lie held the door open
and they went out together. "Would
you like to walk or drive?'
"Oh walk. I don't want 'to drive.
I. only wanted a chance to speak to
you seriously." . .
"Co ahead." His eyes rested on her
aimiufdly. It was the unescapable mo-
ment he knew and ho had prepared
himself for it.
: "I want to know whera I can get
work. You have been so good to ma
ami to father but I must work and
pay it hack. I'm strong now you
know and I want to. He worries con-
stantly for the South and his home
there end friends 1'in hoping some-
how I can get hirn back."
"If you remained here and worked.
Who would he go to?"
"His sister my Aunt Catherine.
She has a tiny place near Pelair and
he would be quite contented with her.
I could send him money."
"What would you do here?"
"Don't you think I would make a
good social secretary? Of course I'd
do anything I could; but I would like
that I asked your mother."
"What did she tell you?"
"To ask you."
"Junior" mentally registered a spe-
cial prayer for mothers and their in-
tuition. Ha led her down the old stone
steps into the park section where he
bad first found her. She looked up
at him with a worried look in her
eyes the look that be had not seen
there In a month and "Junior" forgot
the proper formula for proposing for-
got everything except that they two
were alone in the tender misty twi-
light of his castle garden. So he laid
his arm around her Bhoulders and
drew her near him so near that her
head Just lay comfortably back on his
own shoulder.
"We'll send' dad back anywhere
where he is happy" he told her.
"You're going to stay right here with
me. Aren t you dear? Did you think
that I'd ever let you get away?"
"Isn't the policeman coming?" she
whispered. ' Let me go 'Junior.' "
"I hopo ho is" "Junior" whispered
doggedly. "Maybe it would put a lit-
tle romance into him. Will you stay
Viola?"

Foxes will need all their cunning
and much more if the demand for
their pelts does not abate. Just now
it seems that every girl wants to wear
a red fox or a white one. coiled about
her neck and a fox muff in which to
embed her hands. She dines in airy
gowns but. having removed a coat
her graceful fur is retained not be-
cause the public dining room is cold
but because her furs are becoming
and fashion allows her to wear them.
White fox Is in demand on evening
coats in collars and deep cuffs. Or
very light colors and white coats em-
ploy fix fur dyed black. It is a long
soft and rich fur but not so durable
as some others.
Red fox Is especially becoming to
auburn haired fair-skinned women
and when brown eyes are added to
these the effect is so good that even
the fox might be reconciled to his
fate could he foresee it.
One of thess natural fox sets Is
shown In the picture. The scarf is
held in place by fastening the claws
together. In the muff tho head is
used but tail and claws are omitted.
Fox fur is dyed into several colors
the very dark browns and blacks be
ing favored by the majority of wom-
en. Certain species are very high
priced and will not be cheaper. The
cross fox and pointed fox are rare
a single skin from the latter is worth
several hundred dollars.
Modes in Hair Dressing.
The modes In hairdresslng change
quite as much as the modes in mil-
linery or clothes. Indeed we have to
keep modifying our coiffure to suit the
everchanging hat Bhapes. When the
crowns are high we must needs wear
our knots on top of our heads to fill
in the high crowns. When the flat-
crowned shape prevails it means that
the hair must be stowed away around
the nape of the neck somewhere.
But though hair style changes fre-
quently this does not mean that we
must follow them blindly and obedi-
ently regardless of how they appear
on us. There is nothing which so
transfigures a girl's face as the right
kind of coiffure.

OKLAHOMA CITY. "Women have
outdistanced men in the appreciation
of music as they have in religion ;d
art" declared Rudolf Richter of the
Oklahoma College for Women at
Chickasha in an address before the
conference of music teachers of the
secondary college department of the
annual Oklahoma Educational associ-
ation convention Thursday morning in
the high school building.
Mr. Richter'g illustrated discussion
of the subject "How to Listen to
Music" easily was the feature of the
conference. The sonata he rendered
illustrating his remarks brought lib-
eral applause from the audience of in-
structors. "Unhappiness in life is discord
which can be expressed in music but
as in music discord should he followed
by consolance" said Mr. Richter in dis-
cussing the relation of music to life.
"Discord should he like the cloud in
the sky during a beautiful sunset em-
phasizing the beauty of the sky until
it melts away into nothing leaving a
grand and rose colored horizon. Con-
tinued a discord is unnatural.
"The trouble with people who say
they do not like classical or rather
good music is the fact that they make
no effort to get acquainted with it
either through indifference or lack of
energy.
"In Europe or at least in Germany
the appreciation of music is vastly
more general among the people than
here in the tTnited States and the
cause of this is undoubtedly the fact
that the most unlimited occasion to
hear good music at a very small cost
is provided whereas here we have to
pay considerable to hear good orches-
tras or performers and then only at
long intervals. To appreciate litera-
ture we have to study it and thus ac-
quire gradually the taste for the high-
est creations. The situation in music
is absolutely the same."
Mr. Richter declared that there is
no xcuse for the bulk of the people
not having all kinds of music in homes
now the talking machine having
placed the art of the greatest musi-
cians within the reach of all.
