By the World FORGOT A New Chapter 47 BISHOP'S LETTER the morning post there were two letters for Georgie—one Clifford.. Asher, telling her he had called at the hotel again to find she bad gone, upbraid- her for not .telling him and e once more that she would him a chance to show how he cared. Georgie sighed as she laid it aside lena took up the second letter. It the stamp-of the hote; she had left and was addressed in writ- she did not know. Before she it, she turned to the end to ‘er the signature, and a Iit- shiver of apprehension went her as she read it: Bishop | Why had he written to her?

Ayres “What sort of a man was Boyd?” he asked after a moment. Killick shrugged his shoulders. “Englishman,” he said _ briefly. “A white man, you’d call Lim I ex- pect, Decent enough fellow, too de cent in some ways. I don’t owe him any grudge. He’s down and out now all cight, poor devil.” He rushed away again to enter into a fierce argument with Bernie, who was stamping her foot and on ‘the borderline of tears, Bishop hunched his shoulders in distaste and turned away, the fluffy cloak slipping unbeeded to the floor. “What a life,” he muttered, and he thought suddenly of Georgie’s brown eyes and sensitive face, EORGIE put her head round the kitchen door and looked at Mrs. Drill with wistful eyes. “Would you like to go to the pie } tures?” she asked. Mrs. Drill looked up from 4 paper> backed novel. “Pictures! What pictures, miss?” she asked blankly. “The films,” Georgie explained, “We can get the half past two bus to Redham; there’s a nice picture house there.” Mrs. Drill hesitated. “I don’t know that I will Miss Georgie, thank you all the same. I've got a bit of rheumatism, and sitting in those hot places don’t help matters, thank you all the same.” Georgie smiled and sighed to- gether; she was so tired of her own company that she had been driven to solicit Mrs. Drill’s cheery com- panionship rather than be left any longer to her own thoughts, She had been home nearly a week now, the longest week she had ever experienced, and in three days’ time Edward Bancroft and Mrs. Spears, were to be married. Nobody had offered to buy the Hollies, nobody had even been to look over it although Bancroft had gone to the expense of having a board posted beside the gate, bear- ing the legend “this desirable resj- dence for sale.” He had told Georgie that she might stay on as long as the house was not sold, “Or for a few weeks,” he had added, mindful of the fact that the house might never be sold, and Georgie had agreed, not know. ing what else to do. She had not heard a word from Byelyn, and Bishop had not replied to her shy, apologetic letter. Apparently they had both dofe with her. Yesterday Clifford Asher had been down to see her. Georgie did not like to think of that last meet- ing with him, and today he was sailing for South America. She had sent him a telegram to say goodbye, but as she stood in the village post office hesitating whether to put “Love from Georgte” or jnst “Georgie” a sudden doubt had come into her mind. Was she making a mistake in sending him away? His love would have been something out of the deg olation—something to lean on, to be sure of, And after all she had put “with love” realizing that she did love him as a friend, and that as Nicholas ‘had once said to her “it might help.” Nicholas had not written to her; at first she had thought he might— had almost hoped, forgetting that he did not know whore she was to be found. “Well, I think I'll go to the Pic tures,” she said with an effort. “I "t be in to tea, and you need not wait if you want to go, Mrs. Drill.” Tn the movies she always felt nearer to Nicholas; it was as if she looked at wonderfully {mpossible Places where once he had lived end moved, “Take your umbrella, Miss Georgio; it’s raining,” Mra. Drill said, but Georgie put on an old hat and coat, and started off with her hands plunged into her pockets. Georgie looked up at the grey sky; perhaps it was raining in Ireland too—Edward Bancroft who had spent part of his youth there .sald it always rained in frelend—he called it a God-forsaken country; Georgie wondered if {t seemed God- forsaken to Nicholas. When she reached tie post office the bus had gone, and she remem- bered that the clocks at the Hollies were never right—either too slow or too fast. It was raining more heavily, but she set out to walk the four miles to Redham, it was some thing to do—a means of passing the long lonely afternoon.

No other President rounded himself with plicated a set-up. When you speak of the “inner circle” you have to designate which in- ney circle you mean. There is the regular cabinet. There is the cirele of administra- tors and coordinators, some more powerful than any cabinet mem- ber. There is the “brain trust,” composed of 20 college professor officials, The is the political inner circle, wi includes Post- master General Farley and Secre- jtary Howe. Every one of these groups has a special claim to the confidential ear of the President. Not one seems certain what any other is doing. Many crossed wires are inevitable. Washington is as full of rumors as the army was in war- time—which is saying a great deal. The Welter Of Rumors Treasury Secretary Woodin’s continued absence—he went away June 15—has_ inspired reports ever so sur- com- nowadays 1 that the way is being prepared for, his retirement, His stay in New York is at- tributed to illness. Stories he dis- agrees with Mr. Roosevelt’s fi- nancial policies (many of which originated with the “brain trust’’) are officially denied, but they persist. There are many guesses as to what State Secretary Hull will do when he returns from the Lon- don economic conference. Private reports of what happened there during the visit of Assistant’ Secretary Raymond Moley are be- Today’s Birthdays Mrs. Francis {onetime Mrs, Grover Cleveland) of Princeton, N.
