doctor's bill. Now she would have to wear her old faded blue one. She gazed wistfully at the wealthy girl in her stylish and extremely expensive clothes. How wonderful it must be to have such wonderful clothes, and to be able to go anywhere or do anything she wished without thought of expense. Probably the lucky girl had traveled all over the globe, Nice, Monte Carlo, and countless other interesting places which most people never can see. For the next few minutes her attention was turned to the parade which at this time was passing by on the streets, bright uniforms, gaily decked floats, and gay martial music. She watched it until it passed from sight around a bend in the street, and then she turned to go. The little group of young society folks who had attracted her attention throughout the parade were now making their way through the crowd toward the spot where two very flashy and up-to-date road- sters were parked. As she passed by them on the sidewalk, bits of their gay chatter came to her ears. They were planning a house party at a popular beach, and each was enthusiastically entering in- to the plans. What fun they were going to have! As Mary walked along toward home, she thou ht how hard her lot was because she wasn't wealthy, and couldn't go to house parties, and enter into society like those other girls. However, Mary was not accustomed to brooding long, and as soon as she arrived home into the gay company of her two brothers, she forgot all about it. But that night, as she was preparing for bed, her thoughts re- turned to the afternoon's episode. Nwhy must some girls have so much while others have so littlc?H she asked herself indignantly as sho climbed into bed. But she was very tired, and hardly had her head touched the pillow when she was asleep. That night Mary had a very strange but beautiful dream. It was about twelve o'cloek and she was walking alone in a sub- urb of the city. At first she didn't recognize her surroundings, and then suddenly she found herself walking along a high bluff of the ocean in the residential colony of society where the beautiful residences of the wealthy people stood. How beautiful they looked in the silver moonlirht, huge mansions set far back from the highway, with their beautiful terraces sloping to the ocean! All were aglow with light and the strains of dance music wafted on the night air, came to her ears. A party evidently was in progress. She stood there for e while listening to it, imagingng the people within. She must have stood there for quite a while, for suddenly the 8.

huge Gelonial door swung open and out came a gay crowd of young people, shouting and laughing merrily. The girls were dressed in long, flowing evening gowns and the boys in tuxedos. She ducked behind a tree that she might not be discovered by them. They , shouted good-night to one another, and then get into their cars and drove away. As soon as the terrace was deserted Mary came from her hiding place and walked along in deep thought. She did not know what happened next, but suddenly she was in one of those beautiful mansions, witness to an unhappy scene. They didn't seem to see her, for they gave no sign of it, but she was conscious of the entire scene before her. In the room sat an elderly lady, a very aristocratic appearing woman. She was in a heated argument with her husband, a tall, well dressed man of about fifty-five years. Their voices rose angrily as the fight progressed, until they were actually screaming at each other. The husband accused her hotly, HA fine wife you are. You are more interested in your eternal bridge parties than you are in your family.W She interrupted him, scornfully, HAnd you, my dear husband. You practically live at the gambling table at the casino. I suppose you call that interest in your family.N They argued back and forth, each growing angrier with every word. At this moment, the door in the hall banged and in walked a young fellow and girl of about twenty-one and eighteen years respec- tively. That is, it would be more exact to say they tottercd in. The girl's breath smelled very strongly of liquor, and her gait was noticeably unsteady, while the boy was actually drunk. They had recently come from a party, in fact, the one which Mary had previous ly witnessed. Both being heavy drinkers, they had indulged in a little too much liquor. Imagine Mary's surprise when she recognized the girl of the parade. s There was a tense silence for a moment as the mother and father took in the two dishevelled figures. Then the mother's shrill voice lashed the two young people with her scorn. She screamed hatefully, HI've tried to make you two amount to something, and all you are capable of doing is coming home in this drunken fashion night after night. You're a disgrace to the Van Hammond name.N The girl's lips curled scornfully. USO you've tried to make us amount to something, have you? Why, I've hardly seen either you or father for nearly 2 we K. You and your bridge parties and he and his gambling. Don't preach to me, or I'll toll you something. Why, we have a greater affection for the servants than we have for you. Why shouldn't we? They make what little home we hove.W Back and forth, the battle waged, till Mury's senses reeled with disgust at it all. There was no respect for each other, no 9.
