Mary’s Latch Key
By JANE OSBORN
©. by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.
WNU Service.
T'HKRE was no attractive sort of In
doleuce about Mary that on ordi
nary occasions kept her from being
especially talkative. But on occasions
she was voluble, not to say actually
eloquent. This was one of the occa
sions.
“Well, If you don’t give me n latch
key I shall realize that you are not at
all the enlightened parents 1 had
thought you were,” she fold her fa
ther and mother ns she stood before
them In the living room. She had
been arguing half an hour.
Mr. Stevens interrupted with a weary
sigh. “Oh, give her the key," he said
to his wife. "She’s crazy—they’re
crazy—we’re crazy to give it to her—
but 1 can’t stand her nagging.”
And having received the coveted key
Mary kissed her parents very sweetly,
and explained that the reason she espe
cially wanted the key was because she
was going to he escorted to the club
dance that evening by Mr. Frank
Ortnsby, a young man ns she thought
of much importance. "He’s Miss Sally
Ormsby’s nephew and he’s visiting her
nnd he’s been perfectly adorable to
me considering all the people he knows
In town, and he’ll bring me home after
the dance and if he thought I didn't
have a latch key he'd just think I was
a little country simpleton, 1 suppose,
lie knows actresses nnd artists und
everything—nnd 1 must seem stupid
enough as it is.”
After all, as Mr. nnd Mrs. Stevens
agreed, the idea wasn’t such a had one.
It was rather tiresome sitting up for
Mary when they had no occasion to
be up themselves.
They were peacefully slumbering in
their room at the hack of the house
when at about one o’clock Frank Orms
by’s car rolled up. lie had been tell
ing Mary that he thought she was the
cleverest girl he had ever met und
was Just wondering whether he dared
tell her that lie had also considered
her the prettiest.
“Of course you'll come in foi
awhile," she said. “We’ll just slip In
without disturbing anyone. I thought
perhaps I’d make some coffee or some
thing.
“You don’t mean to say you have a
latch key," said Frank Ormsby—then
tie whistled and afterwards he laughed.
“I’d awfully well like to come In,” he
said, "and I wish I had known—but
you see I'm not so privileged as you
are. Aunt Sally sits up for me and I
told her I'd be home at one—and I
Just can’t keep her sitting up. Let
me come tomorrow, any time—please.
Why, Mary!”
For Mary had jerked herself away
from him and had run up the path to
the house. He hurried to Her and tried
to take the key from her hand. "You
can just hurry home,” she said. “I'm
jolly well able to let myself in, thank
you. Good night, Mr. Ormsby. I said
—good night."
And Frank feeling ns if the stars
had suddenly fallen down from the sky
retreated down the path into his car
and started slowly down the road
while Mary was fumbling with the key.
Looking back he saw her still fumbling,
then he turned the car around and
drove slowly back.
“The darn thing won’t work,” said
the dejected Mary when he reached
her side. "1 guess they gave me the
wrong key. Oh. 1 think it is too
dreadful!” And Mary promptly began
to weep. After that they rang the
door bell. Then Mary called—first
cautiously, then with all her might.
Still no response.
“I hate to keep your aunt waiting
up any longer—” said Mary.
“I’m not worried about Aunt Sally,"
said Frank, “but I am worried about
you.”
“Maybe I could go home with you
and telephone to my house. That
might wake them.”
Sally Ormsby who didn’t look very
much older than her nephew greeted
Frank and Mary with reassuring
savoir faire. "But first you must stop
and have a bite with us. We can tele
phone after that. But you don't mean.
Mary, that you have a latch-key? I
knew some of the village girls had
latch keys, but I'd no idea your moth

But Mary hail flown to the tele
phone. After flve minutes’ effort the
operator would only report “They do
not answer.”
“But it will be quite all right for
you to stay here,” said Miss Ormsb.v.
“I’ll telephone your mother the first
thing, so don’t hurry In the morning.”
“Mary’s a dear,” said Miss Ormsby
to her nephew after she had shown her
to her room. A look of quick compre
(tension passed between the two. “But
don't let the poor lamb carry a latch
key after you are engaged."
“Do you suppose she’d have me?”
“Of course she* would," said Aunt
Sally, and looking up they saw a very
much confused, but very pretty young
girl in the doorway. “I'm sorry,” she
■•faltered. “But I was so afraid they
would worry and I just stole down to
try to gel them on the telephone again.
I thought you'd gone to bed—I—’’
"Perhaps I was wrong,” said Aunt
Sally.
“Oh, no," said Mary—and then, “I
don't believe I understood what you
were saying—that is—I never was so
embarrassed in my life—”
“Poor lamb," said Aunt Sally as
Frank took Mary iD his arms.
press, which sitrikes coins at
the rate of 110 a minute at a
pressure of 100 tons. This ma
chine is itself a hard master.
Dies ,of exactly the same pat
tern are required for use in the
press, so a master punch, from
i which any number of these can
be made, has to be designed.
The mass-pi'oducer, to en
able him to overcome his many
difficulties, sets limitations to
the designer, who is left with
; a metal disk which he is per
j mitted to penetrate to a depth
j of two or three thousandths of
an inch and practically no
freedom whatever.
Suitability of subject would,
in the special circumstances of
designinga coin, appear to be
of prime importance, but it is
more than doubtful if it ever
receives attention. It must be
remembered that a coin is the
result of squee7ing a blank of
cold metal between two dies.
The limits of this operation are
the pressure obtainable and
the breaking point of the dies.
If the design cannot be so ar
ranged that the obverse and
! reverse are complementary in
the sense that the metal dis
placed on the one .side shall
flow into the other, trouble in
production is bound to occur.
LIBRARY RECEIVES
INTERESTING WORK
K. K. Kawakami, author of
“Japan Speaks” and other in
teresting volumes dealing with
Japan, has presented to the
Hyder Public Library a copy of
his latest work, “Manchoukuo,
Child of Conflict,” it was an
nounced this week by Librarian
B. B. Smith.
As indicated by the title, the
book deals with the history
and status of the new state es
tablished in Manchuria under
Japanese supervision and dis
cusses in entertaining manner
the developments which have
and are taking place there.
Mr. Kawakami, who is the
Washington, D. C., corres
pondent of one of Japan’s
greatest newspapers, declares
that no one has told the real
story of the Manchurian im
broglio, principally because all
earlier historians have over
looked the human factors
which were at the bottom of
the trouble. Although writ
ten by a Japanese, it is in no
sense an attempt to present the
Manchurian situation entirely
from the Japanese viewpoint,
as the author frankly points
out Japans mistakes and open
ly declares that Manchoukuo
will be no bed or roses for the
Japanese. It is a decidedly
interesting volume and can be
read with profit by anyone,
even though they may not be
greatly interested in political
subjects.
