C., FRIDAY., OCTOBER 26, 1928. * THE EVENING STORY The Waitress With a Heart. ELLA, the head waitress of the Elite Cafe, threw a plate of sau- sages and chips in front of the elderly ledgerkeeper with the frayed collar and shirt cuffs, smiled ravishly at a well known sport- ing tipster, winked wickedly at a smart- ly uniformed chauffeur and then with jaws set as grimly as a rabbit trap, said, “Yes, madam!” The frail, seedy-looking lady, who had fluttered into a seat looked pa- thetically up with her faded blue eyes. “I just want a cup of tea and a roll, please,” she whispered, and nervously dropped a dime on the marble table. “Nothin® served here under 15 cents,” snapped Bella, with a smoldering ex- pression of resentment in her bold, black eyes. “Can’t ye read th’ notice?” “I'm sorry! It's all the money I have explained the old lady in an pologetic tone, rising from her chair, ut couldn't you serve me with a cup of tea? I'm very tired.” Bella stepped back and haughtily surveyed this indigent intruder into the busiest moment of the lunch hour. Bella had a caustic tongue, and now found difficulty in restraining it. But her eye caught the shabby gentility of the dress, the brave attempt to enliven the dinginess with a white lace collar, noted the delicate refinement of the pale, careworn face, and she paused. “Sit down,” Bella said, compassion- ately. “We have some real tender lamb and green peas, and the best pot of tea in ‘town. The feed's on me. Put the dime back in your purse.” The restaurant was nearly empty when Bella returned to her guest. She sat down beside her, and patted the wrinkled hand. “Was yer very hungry, dear?” she inquired tenderly. The old lady’s fingers closed on Yes: I'd nothing to eat since 3 I should have been back at the home last night, but I wanted to visit the war museus You see, I've no ore to care for me now.” “Was he killed at the war?” Bella asked with. a quiver of her full, red lips. “And the only one, I bet a dol- it “Yes, my. only son was killed at Pozieres in 1916,” came the tremulous reply. “ But, you see, Clarence married Jjust before he left for the front and the widow- got the pension. Poor young thing, perhaps she needed it more than I. They might have had a child. I have never learned. - But I must not weary a stranger with my troubles.

T met him first in this very cafe,” Bella said reminiscently. Just then the proprietor walked up and reminded her a late customer was waiting to be served. As the old lady disappeared into the street Bella's eyes still followed her hypnotically, She was thinking of the hectic days of 1915, when two soldiers had nominated her for a pension in return for a few weeks of tenderness, and then of her final romance with Clarence, a lean, lanky country youth, who had thought her a very Hebe for beauty and voluptuousness. Yes, she had married him because she felt sure he would never come back. Clatry was too full of fight—just the rash, impetuous boy to earn quickly a white wooden cross. Candidly, she had experienced more satisfaction than respect when she learned that he had gone west. But she had comforted herself with the reflection that people made all sorts cf odd attachments during the war. “It was a disturbin’ time right through,” she murmured to herself as she marched to the kitchen to order “’am and eggs for one.” “Most of us was off our tops then and I wasn't erl to blame.” Then she stopped at the old lady's table and noted how clean was the plate she had piled up with succulent lamb and green peas.” ‘“‘Anyway, Clarry,” she commented dreamily, “I got the pension orl right.” Then, with a burst of magnanimity, she added, “But I'm glad I met your poor old mother and had the chance to give her a feed.” (Copyright, 1928.)

LONDON, October 26 —Rear Admiral Ernest A. Taylor, retired, who last Jan- uary criticized the American attitude at the tripartite naval conference at Geneva, has taken up arms again in behalf of a powerful British Navy. Speaking before Conservative party workers at Westminster he said: “The principle of freedom of the seas is a ridiculous proposition. Since the seventeenth century, when the British wrested command of the seas from the Dutch, there have been endeavors by continental nations and later by the United States to wrest this power from us. Not being able to do that, there has come this suggestion of the freedom of the seas, meaning that all sea-borne traffic, whether billigerent or neutral, should be permitted to carry on in war as in time of peace.” Rear Admiral Taylor, who command- ed H. M. S. Renown during the Prince of Wales’ tour of Canada, Australia and New Zealand in 1919 and 1920, asserted this policy would not abolish warfare altogether, but would concentrate at- tention on armies and air forces, “Does any army think?” he said, “that Sir Austen Chamberlain would be listened to for one moment on the con- tinent in those occasional conversations if there were not behind him the power .'I:(nd Tl:}ht and majesty of the British avy?” Seven Children Drown.
