"I cm never thank you, ‘Deny-J’ Valerie began.

"No thanks. Just be l. good lrl and Work hard."

Leaving the phone Valerie de- bated what, w wear. She must look her best on her first visit to the school for models.

The plaid dresc was not right. Already she caught the difference between the plain welLtailored clothes of the women she met on the streets and the lines of the plaid, which were all wrong. Finally, she discarded the plaid for a simple black dress she had worn in the store back in Pelton. been marked down in the French The dress was in good style. It had Room. With a collar and cuff set which she had added, Valerie ap_ proved of the whole effect.

There was a mirror in the closet door. She swung about slowly, thoughtfully appraising herself from ll‘3"i(l to foot. Terry had said that her makeup was bad. There was somehmg wrong, but working over it didn't improve it.

Well —she must go. She felt nervous. and yet her heart beat with suppressed excitement. Today she was taking her first step to. ward her ambition.

She threw a nod of confidence over her shoulder at the Qirl in the mirror. “You must, succeed," she told her. "You cannot let me down _nor Terry."

She felt a stab of regret as she closed the door on the comfortable. shabby living room. It was likc leaving Terry behind. She would never forget the time she had spent here. What a change had come over her Only two days be- fore, she had been despondent. completely beaten. Today she left with high hopes

From the first. Valerie realized that it would not be easv to live with Dot. for Dot didn't hwitate in put hcr in her place.

"Terry's always pulling some one out. of a hole," was Dots remark before Valerie was fairly inside her apartment. "Terry's like that" "Yes-I know," said Valerie.

Dot handed her the envelope Terry had sent by special mesaen. ger, regarded the check Valerie drew from 1t

"We can share eupenses here,"

she observed carelessly.

Later, they sat in th bedroom while Dot fussed over an elaborate

makesup and talked.

“You can take all this training if you want," she said. "but it really doesn't. count for much. They'll put you through your paces and you'll think you're ready for the starting gun, but let me bell you something -neveu' forget the other entries. They're in there to Win. i100- Theyil crowd you qut befom you take the first lap. Maybe I don't know."

"I suppose you do," Valerie a. greed politely. Dot, rose from the dressing table. and tossed off a. filmy negliEee. She slipped into a sleek black dress. “Zip me up, will you?" she said. Valerie obeyed, while Dot drift. ed into an explanation of how she first met, Duke Maxwell “Hls father has dough and was acre at Duks because he had this orchestra," she said. moving into the closet and returning with a scra-p of velvet and feathers which she perched on her blond sculp_ turecl curls. "But the boy has made good. Hi5 father has seen the t. and Duke made himself solid. when he suggested a smart. advertising campaign for Nomand cigarettes, which his father's agency handles. "Thatfs where I come in. I'm go- ing to model in the photos they start shooting next week. Just 1m experiment but, if it goes over"— Dot picked up l. cloth coat with a huge fur collar-—“I'll be wearing mink instead of this." They left the apartment, went to a bank, and cashed Terry's check, which was a generous one. Dot/s eyes fixed on the roll of money which Valerie tucked into her purse. With that money in her possession. she became Doris best friend. Dot slipped a hand through her ann, and sold. "Before we investi. gate this school, let's celebrate." "Celebrate what?" “Your new affluence. Come along I'll introduce you to the best cock.. tall lounge in town. It's a good place i0 make contacts" Valerie hnd no desire to follow this suggestion, but was afraid to

cross Dot.

when they reached the Dlece mentioned. she soon found that they needed no money for the drinks Dot ordered, which were quickly paid for by one of the scv. eral men who sauntered up to greet them.

Valerie barely touched her lips

her glans, and she thoroughly disliked the men whom Dot in. troduced. ‘Ilhe-y were definitely idle-rs.

Bought by the Dominion Lle- parfsnent of Agriculture from On- tarlo breeders for the Government of the Leeward Islands, one bull is Ovnsigned to the Superintendent of Agriculture, St. Kltt's;_the other to the Department of Agriculture Antigua. Both bulls are out of dams with a milk production of between 15,000 and 20,000 pounds.

Instead of buying Canadian cows for its farmers, the Govern- ment if Newfoundland is tnimz out a new plan of buying Canadian heifers and raising them to matur- ity in Newfoundland. Recently, the Dominion Department of Agricul- ture brought a representative of the Newfoundland Department of National Rcsmuces to St. FTHHCDAS de Madawaska, New Brunswick. where he bought 33 Ayrshire heif- ers, aged from three to six months. Many of these were by ou-istaituing bulls in the St. Francois artificial breeding centre. OPBIEWd 11nd?! Dominion-Prov 1 .
