It was in the roof and not the treasury, so the little congregation, preferri to remain on a cash basis, raised the $300 needed for a new roof. BOYS GOTTA GET BATHS EVERY DAY.. YEAH!! WELL .

WORD FROM GERMANY ‘WAS a day or two following her meeting with Bernie Boyd that Georgie ran into Nelly Foster. There was a cold East wind blow- Ing, and Nelly was hurrying along, the collar of her cheap coat held clwely about her chin, and her nose & frifle blue. he gave one glance at Georgie and woull have passed on, only Georgie barred the way. “Nelly —- don't you me?” It was only a few weeks since fhey had met, but so much had happened tirat it seemed to Georgie as if yea's must have passed since #be had taken tea in Nelly’s crowded little room. “I thought perhaps you didn’t want me to speak,” Nelly said, and then, “My word, aren’t you smart!” “Am [?" Georgle glanced down at her clothes; she supposed with faint Batisfaction that they were rather nice. Nelly sald defensively, "l thought you'd done with me, putting me off that week-end as you did, and then not writing.” “Such a lot of things have hap- pened,” Georgie said. “I'll teli you all about it. Come and have some coffee. They were outside an expensive Jooking Bond Street tea shop and orgie had turned towards its door before Nelly said quickly: “Not in there, thank you. I'm not dressed for places like that.” Georgle felt rebuked; until re- cently she would not have dared to enter such a shop herself. She thought it was wonderful how qufck- 1y one grew acclimatized to changed conditions, “We'll find another, said. Nelly went with her silently, her eyes cn Georgie's dainty ciothes, and as soc .. as they were seated at one of uc marble topped tables she broke out. “Has someone left you a fortune?” “No, nobody,” Georgie said. “But I'm living with my mother now and she’s wa'l off.” “Oh. Do you like 1t? Georgie sighed. “Sometimes T da. and sometimes . ... well, 1 sup- pose people always want the things they can't have.” “l shouldu’t have thought there was much jou couldn’t have,” Nel- Iy said sh .‘ly. She was feeling a ttle sore; life had dealt her many unkind knocks, but somehow she had expected Georgie to be differ- ent from other’ people, and appar- ently she was just the rame. Georgie ‘seemed to read her thoughts, for she sald with sudden éarnestness: “I've never forgotten §ou; do. 't think that. But it’s been 80 difficu.t to do as I want to do. I suppose people mnever can when they’'ve got a mother to consider,” she added quaintly. _“I don't see what difference it makes,” Nelly said; she was stir- ting her coffee rather viciously. “I uee your Nicholas Boyd has had an operation,” she said. remember then,” she EORGIE'S eyes i - open wide. “Where did_you eee it?” she asked breathlessly. “Oh, in the paper, just a tiny para- fl'lbh about him. 1 lupnosq yon ?new though,” she add. malicfous- y- “Which paper?” Jeorgie asked. Nellie fumbled in tha pocket of h" coat and produced a crumpled newspaper. P “It's somewhere there,” she said. She watched interestedly while rgie searched every column. “Has he thrown you over?” she asked suddenly. 4 Georgie shook her head. i Nelly gave a ghort langh. . _*And you wouldn’t admit it any- way it he did,” she said. 4 Georgie had found the tiny para- znvh. and was devouring it with nur!

Silly, 1 call it.” She glanced at Georgie’s untouched bun. “You're not eating,” she said. “I'm not hungry,” Georgie ao- swered. “l don’t really want it.” “I'll have ft tor ,ou,” Nelly sald quickly 8o quickly and eagerly that Georgie asked in swift concern: “Haven't you had any brekfast?” Nelly laughed rather mirthlessly. “No, | baven’t. I'm economizing”— she paused, and washed down a mouthful of bun 7ith some coffee before she added with bravado. “I'm out of a job.” “Oh!” Georgle’s face was beay- tiful 10 its concern. “But you'll get another job?” “Shall 1? Good. ess. 1y knows.” “You mean you can't get 1 job?” Georgie asked in bhorror. “How long is 1t since you left the other place?” “A fortnight; but don’t you wor- ry about me, | shall be all right. Tell me about yourself.” But Georgle.could think of noth- ing but her friend’s tragedy. “I'll ask Bishop.” she sald eagerly. He's my steptather, and [ should think he knows nearly everybody in London. The telephona fs going all day, and we get heaps of visitors. He's nice, I'm sure he'll finl you a job it I ask bim.” Nelly made a little grimace. “He might tell you that he would try, because you're pretty and be probably likes you, but he /an'c be 80 keen when he's seen me. Men o - all the same, if you haven’t got a silly, dolly face they don't think you're any good. However, i*'s kind of you to suggest it,” sk added Nelly touched the sleeve of Geor- gie’'s coat. “It must have cost a lot,” she said. “It’s better th~n anything we ever kept in our p'rce. It cost at least §25, didn't it?” “]’M NOT suré,” Georgie said. She knew that it had cost a good deal more than the §25, which seemed the height of costliness to N-lly, and it made her feel a little ashamed, Surely it was rot right for one girl to spend so much money on mero clothes while another girl went without her breakfast? “You can have the newspaper if you like,” Nelly said, as Georgie still kept it in her he d. “I've cut out the advertisemeot page, and that’s all 1 bought it for.” Georgie thanked hcr as grate fully as it sbe bad just becn pre- sented with the Crown Jewels “It you're sure you dew't waut it,” she was careful to ask. Nelly ate the last crumb on her plate, following it up with a loat of sugar from the basin. “And now I'll be going,” she said. Georgie hesitated, then s.id dif- fiiently. “I hope yon won't mind, but won’t you let me lend you & little money, just till you get an- other job.” Nelly flushed and drew on her glove with a vigorous tug. “No, thanks; thanks all the same. I've never borrowed money yet, and I'm not going to start; thanke all the same. I'm all right; don’t you wcu'ry‘ But Georgie worrled 1 great deal! there was a heavy cloud on ber ho- tfzon as she went slowly back to the fiotél. Life seemed so terribly un- balanced, like a see-saw; you were either up in the full glare of popu- larity or else you were down in the darkness; to her seusitive mind Nicholas Boyd and Nelly Foster seemed suddenly to -have joined hands and to be standing together looking at her with unf iendly eyes. 8o Nicholas: had had his_operation and was doing as well as could be | expected;. she wondered what that meant. She knew it. was the kind of thing doctors always said about | sick people, and yet Nicholas was fiop efactly sick in the ordinary | way. Her héart seemed to bs stralning away from her body in a vain at- tempt to reach him; she. wondered it they were kind to him; if they had hurt him very much and, most of all, {f they hiad been siiccesstul in making his face well again. Not that it mattered. To her at least he would always be dear and beautiful, whatever happened, per- haps & little more dear if he was al ways to be the “ugly devil” he had once described himself. She sea the hotel till she found her stepfather.

Dizzy Dean hits one of those days and fans 17 Cubs, to set a new league record. The old Cards are swinging. Hornsby, with little rope of '>c-— ting anywhere this year, hasn't been idle either. A fighting lead- er, who never inspires outr ad- miration or absolute hate, the Ra- jah has taken a tight hold. H thinks he can teach several of the Brownies, particularly Camp- bell and Levey, to be real hit-| ' ters. He has an idea the pitch- ers have been careless in not pitching to. known batting weak- nesses of the enemy. STREET HAD TROUBLES Street’s downfall ai was not hard to foresez.. All sea- son, with the biggest and the best pitching staff in baseball, the Gab- bler has had trouble with his hurling strategy. He worked Dean and Carleton overtime, and oth- ers, particularly Dazzy Vanc: and Jess Haines, he worked too m-l tle for them to keep the edge of pitching effectiveness. In addition to that ball players say his team was beginning to “stand around” on him. A change was impera- tive. { Frisch promptly set the veter- an Haines to work and got a four| hit performance in return for his| confidence in the old-timer. Dean started pitching in rotation, kecp- ing his turn, and he broke the league strikeout record. The club is hitting again. In addition to being second base- man, the both of them, Frisch and Hormsby have much in common. Both were great ball players and both studied for managerial jobs under the greatest pilot of them all, John J. McGraw, of the New York Giants. Frisch, in his way, is just as tough as Hornsby, just as aggres- sive, as brilliant in baseball brains, as natural a leader. The . Gold lace or braid Near .
