Lavender Lining
By MARY WAVERLY
Associated Newspaper*,
WNU Service
¥ OU EM shook out th* fur coat
almost savagely. So this was
the end of her dreams of comfort.
A punishment, some would say, for
her ever thinking of a little home in
the country, all her own, and fat
little checks coming in every month
to keep the home fire burning.
As if she wished harm to old Aunt
Louise Emeline. But dreams and
wishes were done now. Charities
had received aunt’s money, and to
Lou Em had come some boxes of
ancient clothing. The coat among
them. No doubt the executors
thought it too frail to be worth any
thing, or they may have thought it
was but another cracked silk dress,
as it lay in a trunk with its lavender
lining outermost.
“It’s not really worn. She must
have had it made just before that
accident that kept her bedridden
afterward. But how old-fashioned!
Look at those huge sleeves! Enough
to make two coats. And that’s an
idea—”
Lou Em’s pale cheeks flushed as
she pulled out the sleeves and
straightened the collar of the rich
garment.
“Genuine mink, for aunt would
scorn imitation. And with my
hair— ’’ She held a sleeve up against
her face. “I am not so ugly after
all, with something beautiful on me.
I’ll just try that plan I thought of;
I can only be laughed at, and may
be it’ll work.”
Swiftly she bundled the coat into
the box in which her marked-down
suit had come, and, leaving the old
silk and cloth frocks of her legacy
on the floor, hurried down the board
ing house stairs. Saturday afternoon
was not a good time for her experi
ment, but business girls cannot
choose times.
The splendor of the new furrier’s
in the new building on the avenue
of fashionable shops almost daunted
Lou Em, but she would not give up,
now that she was started.
“I have here a coat— ’’ she stam
mered to the attendant.
“For the remodel, yes? See Mr.
Moon.”
Mr. Moon proved to be a young
man with the most wonderful eyes
and manners that Lou Em had ever
approved of.
“How much will it cost?" she
asked anxiously, trying to hide her
foot with its cracked shoe. “Not
too much, and could I—
“New lining, of course. Some
thing neat in beige. And recut to
fit you. Something smart. Say,
a $150.”
“Dollars?” inquired Lou Em
faintly. He might as well have said
kingdoms. She had as many as
she had dollars.
“But the extra fur. There’s a lot
of that. Look how long and full the
coat is, and those sleeves—couldn’t
you—that is—surely it’s worth
something, that fur.”
Young Mr. Moon raffced his eye
brows, and then he took a good look
at Lou Em. He saw the cracked
shoe and the too-much washed crepe
blouse and the last year’s hat. He
saw something else, too, for Mr.
Moon was really an observing as
well as a good young man.
“Most unusual, Miss—Henly, was
it? But I’ll ask the boss. He’s in,
I think. Can’t promufe, though.”
Lou Em sat in the pale-gray re
ception room then and prayed for
the five minutes that seemed five
hours until Mr. Moon returned, fol
lowed by a human volcano, carry
ing the mink coat.
Mr. Schonbrunn of Schonbrunn
Furs, Inc., was not ordinarily an ex
citable man, but now he appeared
to be one huge sputter.
“You get this, where? This—this
—I myself make this complete, the
first work I do when I finish the
apprentice. The lining, how I fought
the old lady about that. But she
beat, and for doing as she said I
got SSO extra.
“Ah, ah—the good old days when
I was a young feller, them was.
It makes me cry—”
Mr. Shonbrunn’s eyes indeed
were tearful.
“You want a coat? I’ll make you
a coat of good mink, a grand coat,
lining the best, I got, but this coat
I don’t cut. No. This coat hangs
in my office in a glass case, as long
as I got it an office. You know
why? That SSO started me up. 1
traded a bit in small skins till I
could leave the boss and start for
myself. I come here—now look!”
Mr. Schonbrunn waved a prideful
hand about the pale-gray salon, with
its one priceless sable scarf on dis
play.
“The lavender lining that made
my fortune—” He stroked the silk
caressingly. “Yes, you take the or
der, Moon. A rr.ink coat of the best
for the young lady. And you see to
it person’lly. See that she’s suited.”
Mr. Moon would do that. Certain
ly he would. And there was much
to talk about, Aunt Louise Emeline
and the charities that probably need
ed her money, and Mr. Schonbrunn
and his romantic streak, so that Mr.
Moon came the next evening to Lou
Em’s boarding house parlor. And
kept coming and taking her out to
get the good of the new coat.
He really was : uch an understand
ing young man that when his salary
was raised Lou Em consented to
give up the boarding house and as
Mrs. Moon live ;n the dearest little
flat where the new mink coat would
be more at home.

NEIGHBORS ALL
Today's transportation and com
munication miracles have mada
neighbors of all men in all nations.
Swift steamships, zephyr trains,
streamlined automobiles and air
planes hurrying on wind’s wings,
coupled with the telegraph, tele
phone, the news reel and the magic
radio have made time and space al
most meaningless.
Just as the barking of a nearby
neighbor’s angry dog once aroused
our parents’ household, so today the
barking of an angry dictator four
thousand miles uway arouses our
own households. And just as the
mad dog menaced the neighborhood
of n generation ago, so todny does a
mad or lawless nation menace the
world neighborhood.
Until a few short years ago only a
handful of people knew much about
the activities or products of other
nations, but today both the happen
ings and products of almost any
nation are known to even the school
children of America. And unless
our civilization is destro;*! by law
less nations, it seems evident that
as time flows on more and more
people everywhere will come to
know more and more about the
habits, heritages, products and hap
penings of every other nation.
Twenty-two hundred years ago
China attempted to isolate herself
from her Tarter enemies by build
ing a great wall, it today no more
could hold them back thun a sieve
could hold water. For centuries oa
end the English Channel separator!
the British Isles from the European
mainland and tvlped Englishmen to
build a nation “above the tide of
wars and windy fate.” But the
Channel today cannot protect Brit
ons from air raids; they must devise
some new kind of protection or else
they must help create anew kind
of international relationship.
In one way or another what every
nation does is of first interest to the
people of every other nation. To
day a poor or good wheat crop in
far off Australia, Russia or the Ar
gentine affects the world market
price of wheat and increases or de
creases the income of every Ameri
can farmer for that year who grows
wheat. The same thing is true for
cotton, corn, wool or what have
you. Man today has been torn
from the economic isolation which
was the lot of his grandparents all
the way back to Adam.
Today the war threats of dictators
force democracies to increase war
preparedness expenditures. Tin's
activity places a too heavy load oA
the new over-burdened capitalistic
system. Thus no man can escape
world happenings; dare remain in
different to political, social or eco
nomic clouds that are constantly ap
pearing on the edges of far off
horizons.
Today war and peace activi
ties are heavily mechanized. Ad ie
from food the people of all nations
in the conduct of either war or peace
require copper, lead, zinc, tin, iron,
steel, petroleum, coal, rubber : id
other natural products in ever Isrg
er amounts. No nation is self-suf
ficient. In fact, few nations have
more than two or three of these na
tural products. Thus trade, the in
terchange of goods, is essential to
either modern war or peace activi
ties.
And trade can flourish only when
men or nations adhere to established
rules and thereby gain trust in and
respect for each othc r.
SCHOOLS FACING THREE AND
ONE-HALF MONTH TERMS
Georgia school superintendents
were notified Wednesday that on
the basis of present revenue the
state can support its schools only
three and one-half months during
the 1939-40 school term.
This action came following a
meeting of the finance committee of
the State Board of Education Wed
nesday at the state capitol just prior
to the scheduled meetings of scores
of local school boards to prepare
their next year’s budgets.
Though State Auditor Zach Ar
nold wrote the committee that he
could not as yet furnish an accurate
estimate of anticipated revenue for
the coming fiscal year, the finance
group, headed by H. C. Williams, in
structed Dr. M. D. Collins, school
superintendent and executive secre
tary' of the state school board, to
tell the superintendents to expect
only three and one-half months'
state aid—the same amount that
was paid by the state during the
fiscal year just ending.
It painted a dark picture for the
local school systems throughout
Georgia, many of which closed their
terms anywhere from one to three
months early this year.
