A Chocolate Soda, Please Carolyn Earl, '42 UWELL, that's that, said Mau- reen as she hung up the re- ceiver and replaced the phone on her table. Why, on Saturday of all days, did Paula Ford have to ask me to luncheon? After all, Saturday was the nicest morning to sleep late. She yawned, stretched luxuriously and glanced at the noisy little clock on her dresser. Oh, ten thirty, she cried, struggling into her robe, crawling under the bed for her other slipper, and trying to open the bed- E-C-H-O'-lj-S Just a chocolate soda, please room window all at the same time. She gave a sudden, despairing cry as she remembered the sad fate of her last good pair of stockings and real- ized that her blue dress needed press- ing. Mother, oh Mother she called from the head of the stairs. What is it, dear? this lady answered from the kitchen from which direction came the delicious odor of hot biscuits. Paula just 'phonedj' said Mau- reen, pattering down the stairs and coming into the kitchen to sample the biscuits. She wants me to meet her in town at eleven-thirty to shop and have lunch, went on Maureen as she perched on the tabletop and swung her feet. My hose look as if they've been through the warg be- sides my blue dress is dreadfully mussed and,-look what time it is! Can Dad drive me down, or has he already gone to the office? Yes, dear, he has already left with the car, but I will press your dress, and you may borrow my new chiffon hose. I'll have a bite of breakfast ready when you are dressed.

It was not until ten minutes after she had left, that her mother realized that she had forgotten to tell Mau- reen that her Daddy was bringing some out-of-town friends to dinner. Maureen, catching the bus at the corner, arrived in town fifteen minutes before she was to meet Paula. Passing by the soda fountain in Rogers' Department Store, she saw one of the new chocolate sodas being mixed. Having time to spare, she sat down at the fountain and ordered one, feeling guilty, knowing that every penny should be saved for the tiny radio she had planned on buying. After one sip, however, she decided it was just about the best soda she had ever had. It tasted differ- ent somehow-and now she knew why Beth and the gang had all raved about Rogers' chocolate sodas. She had just settled down to en- joy it when, from the corner of her eye, she saw some one sit beside her. She paid no heed until she heard a very charming masculine voice say, One of those new super- chocolate sodas, please. Well, after that she just had to learn to whom such a nice voice belonged. So cautiously, from under her soft wide- brimmed hat she peeped out, only to realize that he had been looking at her. She dropped her eyes, but she Twenty-fiz'c
