SYNOPSIS: Clia Sanford + = terviewing Judith - Lane, Bevins’ secreta af Be as the “perfect stenographer.” But Judith oun interested in the fact that Norman Dale, junior the law firm that handles oom i has driven her to the jel. Norman asks for another ap- Petntment: Judith tells him that She and Bevins are leaving soon for the Rio Diablo dam in west Tezas, one of her employer's big engineering projects. 7 Chapter Three ~ THE INTERVIEW cs quick langh caused several diners to look at the two girls— “you would remind me | was sup- posed to be working, instead of en- Joying myself. Wait until 1 finish this salad and I'll begin on you. “There ... now this is the idea. Someone at the Engineers’ luncheon, today, said that the average stenog- rapher thinks that all she needs to hold down a job is a Hollywood face and a Follies figure. “Fellow named Kline said if his office ornament worked half as hard on the typewriter as she did on her face, both her face and his letters would look better. He said there couldn’t be a perfect stenographer because—” “Yes, 1 know the rest,” inter- rupted Judith. “Big Tom confessed his part also. I’m willing to admit I haven't the brains of an Einstein, ’ the p-tience of Job nor the en ance of a Robot, but 1 must hi consi erable talent as an actress to make 1im think so.” She laughed at the « pression on Clia’s face and addec “Whatjelse would you like to know ” ; “He v can a girl become a perfect steno: ‘apber.” “By following a simple, seven- worde rule.” “Wr itis it?” *“Fir ban employer like Big Tom ‘Bevin: ” Cilia was delighted with the an- swer. pe: you'd like me: to; say?” évery reer, | know how yon wanted to ecome an engineer and why you ke u stenography. | know how shabby three-room attic like a turret with an Rigens ng jaw_and made it. look like at ‘ptoWate pent house. “Thit ; ll use that picture Cal took of ‘our place last August ... and the a told gine when he ligh “Clia,’ interposed Judith eagerly, Judith, a sun bronzed girl in khaki shirt and breeches, high boots and broad” brimmed campaign hat, thought of that moment many times as the red gold days which followed winged along. The trip was worse than Big Tom had anticipated. The Rio Diablo val- ley had been held for two years in the tenacious grip of an unrelenting sun. The Devil River had dwindled | in size until it wound through jts rock ribbed channel like a red hot wire. The plains cupped up like a copper brazier, bound by afarcircle | of red-gold hills. ‘HE native families were starving and the expedition, sharing ra- ‘tions brought in by occasional mule trains from the Gulf coast, grew bone-thin and taciturn, And as though the heat had burned the dross of artificial living from each, Judith watched a new Norman Dale emerge. She sat on the hillside now, watch- ing him in the valley below. The fearful drouth was about to be broken by a storm which might equal the drouth in its intensity. Fear hung over the natives like a visible cloud, their cattle were low- ing uneasily, the pack mules were fretful, even the expedition men, moving with swift efficiency as they made ready to carry every movable thing to the one high spot within reach before the storm struck, seemed oppressed. Through it all Dale’s voice could be heard, calm, cheerful... “Mise Lane,” a small hand tugged at her sleeve, “You've been sittin’ there and a thinkin’ and you haven't told the rest of the story. Y’said the prince and Cinderella were married and then you stopped ... what comes after?” “I'm sorry,” Judith’s voice soft- CLASH IN GAMES |GOLE TEAMS TO "HERE TOMORROW EST MANIFESTED { | i | | j i | (By C.
