For Larry's gaze moved past her, Without a sign of recognition he strolled to Tony's table. She heard him laugh as he asked Tony to dance with him.

For a long time Ellen remained sented. The room buzzed with voicen. Even the clatter of traffle and the faint, faraway noises of the street seemed only to accen- tuate the galety of the dance floor. They were happy, the little dancing -girls in their flimay frocks, enger and expectant, exelted as they laughed up into the eyes of their partners. Ellen knew that mood. She pemembered when she too had been as jubilant.

He was here in this very room and he had not spoken to her. He had turned away indifferently to dance with another girl. Ellen meant nothing to him, hnd never meant anything to him. The fact that they had not met for weeks ---that meant nothing either.

"He's forgotten me," she told herself in endless and bewildered pain. "I'm no more to him than a girl he might have met on a ferry bout ride. I'm nothing to him and I've thought of nothing except him for months."

belief that no matter how much money

an Investment or Public Utility Company may make out of its operations, it should pay no more than 6% per annum for the use of the Public's money which makes its operations possible.

This idea is advantageous to the Borrowing Company and gives that Company opportunity to make increased profits. So well established

is this theory that 6% has come to be. synonymous with soundness and safety of a security.

Is this true? Do the facts substantiate this belief?

The China Realty Company in its very large mortgage business is investing the Public's money. We have always felt that this "Investing Public" was entitled to a more equitable share of the returns obtained from

the use of its moncy than is represented by 6%. We have demonstrated, as our record shows, that we can "afford to give the Investing Public 8% for the use of its money and yet make a satisfactory profit for the shareholders of the Company.

A sum invested at 8% will give you as income 1/3rd greater than the same sum invested at 6%.
