Tlie demonstrations lor the prcsi- dem-eiect wuicli begun on his arrival from -Montevideo seemed to hold the people dunug the night. There were large crowds on the Avenida llio B ranca and \tlie necklace of pearls,\ the driveway skirting the harbor, was jam m ed with automobiles which passed the Guanabara national palace, where members of the lloover party were guests of President Washington Lii is. The city was ablaze with lights un til dawn. Huge welcome signs shone forth ut almost every turn, one of the m ore elaborate being in the parkway near tlie United States embassy. This wus surmounted by a large American eagle with Hags of the United State.} and Brazil draped uround It and reaching down 30 feet to the ground. M any buildings in the heart of the city, where ancient Moorish and modern architecture blend, were draped with lights, everywhere tlio -stars aud stripes were mingled with the green aud yellow of Brazil. M r. Hoover’s piuns for the forenoon included motor tours to some of the places of interest before beginning his official rounds of visits, starting with a luncheon to President Luis at the United States embassy and ending to night as guest of honor at a dinner and reception given by President Luis a t the national palace. Mr. Hoover looked forward to an unusual experience—that of address ing th e Supreme Court, which wus summoned in special session to receive him this afternoon with an address of welcome by the chief justice. Tills ses sion w a s to follow Mr. Hoover's recep tion by tho Chamber of Deputies w h ere he was to speak in response to a welcome by Vice President Dc Metlo Yinnnn- For rhe banquet tonight M r.

VVhllti Mr. Hoover was bu s y on ills official, rounds tlio newspapermen ac companying him were to bo j?uests of the Brazilian l’res.-j Association, which planned, an extensive progi a m of en tertainment for them. The government also saw to tho pleasure of the crew of the U . S. S. Utah, the second Hoover g o o d will ship.

Gay Adventurers By Mildred Barbour CHAPTER :*8. Still Waiting , Morning found Constance curled up In a big chair beside the telephone. She had fallen asleep, after she had waited until the eaiiy hours of the u.orning for a telephone-call from Ilnrry Edmonds. Her hair was tousjed iinil thare were traces of tears' on her cheeks. She looked like a tired little ; sin. That ra r e thing in London, a bright beam of sunshine, came tn at-the win dow and awakened her. Slowly she' stretched her cramped limbs and yawned. I t was a momr-nt before the memory of the previous night , re turned to her. Then she wept again.\ Hurry h a d not telephoned her. H e must have received her message. And he didn’t w a n t to.sec her. What was j she to do now? | She ran g for her maid and bathed nnd breakfasted. She hadn't realized It, but she was very'hungry. M arm al-, nde and toast and t<*a made a g r e a t ' difference in her attitude toward the world. As she wondered lust why she had not heard from Harry, she finally hit ’ upon w h a t she thought must he the t explanation. ‘‘It’s 'because I didn’t say he was to ca.il Miss Kerr, ’ she con cluded. '\The poor boy probably does not know a Miss ;A!len and thought some one was playing a joke on him. Or, perhaps, he came in so-late last night that he didn’t- think it would be veryconsiderate to * telephone any- rre .” With that thought, she settled, her self to wait some more, but, when noon had come and the telephone re mained aiute, she began to grow im patient. Her gentle mood of the night before had vanished, and she was working herself into a fit of rage over wiiat she termed Harry’s lack of courtesy. One moment she, lifted the tele- phone-recelver to c a d . h im ; the next she slammed it down, vowing that she wouldn't phone him again under any consideration. A ltogether she had a very miserable tim* of it. She even considered packing up and going home. Not once did 't occur to her to wonder what Shelia Allen might be doing now. ’ Then she stretched out on the couch nnd read H arry’s letters once more. After that, she knew that she couldn’t leave Loudon without seeing him. She decided to write him—that would be better than telephoning again. So she sat down at the de:-ik and spent an hour composing a note that .would pound casual. When j t was w ritten, she carried it herself tn a post-box just-outside the hotel. As she was lifting the shutter oi the box, she decided to send it by special messenger. She went Into the Athenae and-asked to see the man ager. When he appeared, she ex- I.lained that she had a most Important latter that must be taken at once to the Racquet- club. Could he find on absolutely' trustworthy messenger? Her manner was so anxious, so ap pealing. thut the\ manager promised to send one of his own assistants, and Constance sighed with relief us she saw the precious letter finally on its way. -It was now ,early afternoon, and she went back to her sitting-room to rest. Her vigil of the night before had made her very weary, so she sent for the maid and told her that she would take.a' nap, but she must be called at once, if there was a tele- phone-message, or if a note was -re ject ved. , • She -fell asleep almost immediately, 1 continent that a few hours .more would bring her a message from Harry. He would return to hla club to dress for j-dinner and would find her note. Per- ih.'ips he would ask her to dine with him. They would go to Sampson’s in th a t . case, she defined, i And, while Constance slept, Shelia Allen, in Paris, was trying to adjust |heri?elf to being treated as an heiress, • trying to answer o.uestlons regarding events with which she wasn’t .familiar ' nnd about people she didn’t know. She was fervently, hoping that the : next day would sec Constanco in |P a n s and herself free to go her own i w ay ............. j The sonorous voice of Big Ben, I striking tbe hour of 6, caused Con stance to • open her eyes. She glanced hastily at h e r . watch. Heavens, she had been asleep a long time! She would be hearing from H a rry any minute now.’ • She rang for the maid and said that she wanted u hot bath and a facial massage. . “I may be going out tills evening,” she said, ‘‘so hurry, please.' I had no idea It. was so late,” She donned Sheila’s little evening dress, and, since it was so simple, she used hardly any make-up. When her toilette was completed, she looked ab surdly like a school girl. \This ought to please H arry,” she reflected. “He hates rouge, and lipstick, as I tise the stuff,.at least, und he likes ine to dress simply.” The dinner-hour came and went, and Constance waited tensely for a knock at the door or the sound of the telephone bell. Finally' she could stand it no longer. She donned Shelia’s tailored suit and her close- fitting blue hat and went out. Hail ing a cab, she directed the chauffeur to take her to the Racquet Club. Slio waited for a moment outside the lighted doorway,\ watching men .in evening clothes come and go. Surely H a rry-w o u ld be among them. But there was no one who even looked like Harry. Finally the doormnn no ticed her standing there and came over to her. ‘•I want to see—I want to leave a message for Mr. Edmonds, who lives at the club,” she said. “Mr. Edmonds? I haven’t seen him for two days, Miss. Sometimes he goes away on business. - But I ’ll ask. Please step Inside the door.” Very ill at ease in t'm ” mosphere of the outer lohi *1 stance waited. i n a moment , / ' Cc man returned with an aHon* d0( “Yes, Miss.” Constance.
