OTHER FRIDDLE received Scoop in her sitting room. As the newspaper man looked around he thought it was the last room in the world one would expect to find in an orphanage. Gay hand woven rugs dotted the floor. at windows brilliantly lined with flow- er boxes. One end of the room was banked | with house plants against tall French | | windows. The other was almost alto- |gether taken up by an old fireplace, hand-made of rough hewn stone. The furniture was all in what even he knew was priceless antique. Early Amer- ican. He took it in at a glance when Miss Friddle held out her hand. “Sit down, young man.” Mother Friddle planted herself in her favorite armchair, her Kknitting in her lap. “Miss James announced you as Mr. O'Reilly from New York.

He was there to deceive the good Miss Friddle. And there was some- thing about her that made him think the job might be a little difficult.

Scoop watched her closely. “Sugar?” she asked slowly. about Sugar? wrong?” “Not a thing," “What | Is—there something Scoop assured her, |and she showed her relief. “She's | quite all right. But my client, a wealthy woman whose name I am not at liberty to divulge at this moment, is | much interested in her. | “She has seen her with Mrs, Le { Masters’ little boy, and talked with | ‘ her. Miss Friddle seems like a brilliant | | girl, deserving of a better home than the one in which she is living as a servant. It's quite possible, if we can confirm what we have learned secretly concerning her ancestry that some- thing might be done which would mean a real future for the young | lady.” | It was several seconds before the old lady spoke. Scoop saw her stiffen. Her face turned chalk white. She wet her lips. “I—don’t quite understand you,” she said then with an effort. “Are you meaning to infer that you know who Sugar Friddle's family was. Scoop evaded the question. “We seem to be on the trail. I thought perhaps you could help us. Naturally. my client would like to learn all you know concerning the girl.” Mother seemed to shrink in her‘ chair. Scoop was alarmed at the pal- | lor of her face. His first impulse was to offer to get a glass of water. But on second thought he decided against 1t. There must be a good reason for her obvious alarm. It might, of course, be her great love for Sugar. | | “Do you know anything about the ancestty of Miss Friddle?” he pressed on. When mother answered her vome was hollow. “There wasn't a thing about the baby to identify her when Dr. Slemp found her in the basket. All my life I have hoped some one would come to | me with information. If you have any—give it to me, Mr. O'Reilly. I must know.” | Scoop became the business man again. | V “I came to you for information, Miss | Friddle. My clue is only lukewarm. All I can tell you is that we find the | girl has very likely come from one of the beter Southern families. The in- formation came about in a way that | I cannot divulge without getting some | one else into trouble.” Mother took up her knitting in an effort to pull herself together.

What is it?” | “You must leave Sugar where she | is.” The old lady's face seemed to | grow even whiter. It was ghastly against the snow-white of her hair. “Promise me you will wait.” “But why?” The newspaper man leaned forward in his chair. “She can't be happy working as a servant, earning only a dollar a week. If you love her why don't you want her to have advantages? A college educa- tion, pretty clothes, friends. “I had hoped,” Mother looked up, her eyes filled with tears, “I had hoped your client might be Mrs. Le Masters. You are sure it is not?” “On my word of honor,” Scoop as- sured her emphatically. “But why should you hope my client was Mrs. Le Masters? What particular rea- | son have you for wishing the girl to | stay where she is?” “I feel she will be happier there.” The old lady took a handkerchief from her pocket and wiped her eyes. Scoop decided to be honest in one thing. “But she isn’t. That I know. Mrs. Le Masters treats her worse than she | treats _the colored servants. When Miss Fiddle went there to live she put her down in the ratty old cellar in a little room by herself. Through Mr. Le Masters’ efforts, and much against his wife's wishes, she was finally al- lowed to sleep in the nursery. Mrs. Le Masters seems to hate her.” “No!” Mother covered her again. “Don’t say that. I'm she doesn’t. No one could Sugar.” “I'm telling you the truth. Le Masters makes the girl's life mis- erable. Sugar won't tell you because she doesn’t want you to be unhappy.” The old maid did not try to hide her tears then. She cried softly, while Scoop waited. Finally he said sooth- ingly: “I'm sorry I had to tell you this, Miss Friddle. It is only in the inter- ests of the girl.” “You don’'t know,” Mother made a supreme effort to control her emotion, “quite what this means to me. I— 1 feel ¥ can't have my plans for her future upset at this time.

We'll just work on our own clues and give you a rest, since you assure me you know nothing about the child’s parents.” For a moment Scoop thought Moth- er Friddle was gaing to break out in a fresh burst of tears. But she squared her shoulders and got up. Her knitting dropped to the floor. Scoop handed it back to her. Mother Friddle put a hand on his arm. She seemed to have aged 10 years in a few minutes. Scoop's soft heart ached for her, and he felt sud- denly ashamed of his deceit. “Young man,” she sought his eyes then, “you must make a promise to me. A sacred, solemn promise that must not be broken.” “Perhaps I might,” Scoop relented with & smile. “In fact, I think I'll be glad to after all the unhappiness I've caused you.” “I knew you were a man of honor when I saw you.” The old maid put | her hands on his shoulders and looked | into his face. “Thank you.” Scoop's eves fell. “Then hold up your right hand,” the old lady said solemnly. Reluctantly Scoop raised his hand. wondering what he was letting him- self in for, and why he was going to | make a bind promise. Perhaps it was because Miss Friddle had been | the only mother Sugar had ever known—because he knew such a| strong bond of love existed between them. “Promise me,” Mother did not take | her eyes from his face, “that you will | do nothing further concerning this matter for at least a month; that you will leave Sugar where she is until then.

For more than an hour he walked by the river and worried over | what he had done. But in the final summing up he de- riaed one thing. There was little doubt that Mother knew more than she had told him. That she had found some clue that might lead to the solving of the enigma that was Sugar Frid- dle. Why, he pondered over and over, | did she insist upon Sugar’s being left in a house where she was so unhappy?® And what had she meant by begzing that the prcblem be left in the harocs of Providence? In a month she had promised to get in touch with him. What would che reveal? Sugar was sunning Skeeter by the lily pond that aiternoon when the powder barrel upon which she nad been sitting since her unfortunate ex- perience at Patch’s was set off. It was urasia who brought the news.

By RUBY HASKINS ELLIS THIS surname originated with the | ancient trade of lead beating, which existed before the process of rolling lead into sheets by machinery was employed. The name was origi- nally spelled Leadbeater. The connected history of the Leadbetter family can be traced back about 400 years, when the family was seated in the North of England. There are records which show that individuals of this name were there even prior to that time. The early English records reveal that the Leadbetters were active in the affairs of the clergy. Thomas Leadbetter was vicar of Hinckley during the time of Charles IL. The Rev. Jasper Leadbetter of Hexham Borough was the sixth member of the family inducted into the Order of St. Dominica. History shows at least ten Leadbetters listed in the diocesan registry of Chester from 1572 to 1620. The first settler in this country bearing the name Leadbetter was Henry, who came over in 1660 and settled in Dorchester, Mass. He was a soldier in the early Indian wars of the colony, became a selectmany of Dorchester and was active in the | Thursday at 7 p.m. | Girl | troduction party” NGTO BUSINESS WOMEN T0 MEET MONDAY Committee to Join Heads of Clubs in Department at Y.W.C.

Conquering Contract BY P. HAL SIMS No Trumps. having mentioned it for scme time—and not, mind you, laboring under the con- ceited delusion that your en- tire bridge knowledge is confined to this column—TI still find myself worry- ing about the subject of correct open- ing leads after your partner has doubled & no-trump contract. The conventions are these: If he has bid a suit, he wants it led. If you have bid a suit, he can stand the lead of a low card in your suit. If dummy has bid a suit, your part- ner is probably well over it. As an amendment to the latter situation he may want the only unbid suit leds You can probably tell better | from your hand. If you are long in dummy’s suit, try some other lead. Had South had these rules at his finger-tips, North would have set three no trumps two tricks instead | of one. Dble. A club was opened. North took the | king and returned the suit. South | shifted to a belated spade. East went | down one trick, and was lucky. If | South, however, trusts his partner blindly, and opens the suit bid by aummy in which he is shortest, North takes the queen of spades and returns a spade. A diamond will be led. North will win and knock out the king of spades. In once more with the ace of diamonds, North will drive out the ace | of spades. Unless East has played the diamond suit pretty cannily, he will find himself going down two tricks | on the hand. - K -Q-8-7-4 Here South reached three no trumps and East put in one of the most| breath-taking doubles we have seen in a long time. North, naturally, had bic both diamonds and hearts. West knows that East can't want a heart opening, yet he led it just the same. South garnered his contract and went home. Against a diamond opening South is in plenty of trouble. We suggest that you try to make the contract. | Any idea: on the subject will be re- ceived with an open mind. The only chance that South has is a pseudo squeeze on East. It would have been interesting to have seen South labor- ing at the contract in the dark. A set of about two tricks would fit the bill.

Now they harvest it before it is ripe, shell it with infinite labor and spend the rest of the Summer and most of the Autumn in drying it in the sun to pre- vent mould. Experts are expected to visit them and try to induce them to let the ears remain on the stalks until ripe, according to the American idea.
