WEDNESDAY, M. ARCH 28, 1934. JEANNE BOWMAN SYNOPSIS: Judith Dale has left Norman Dale, ker husband. Her effort to carry out the instruc- Hons of Big Tom Beving, her for. employer, wild’ the Rio Biavio'de fam with the money, he left or t ‘6. treacherous ally of the Bevina heirs oor es law partner, Judith 6 to the apartment of rd pend Glia, Chapter 21 RETURN “Now. out with it,” ordered Clia. “How did you know I'd left Norman?” inquired Judith guile lessly. Clia shouted, “Honey, if you'd worn an electric sign spelling ‘Reno Bound,’ it wouldn't have shown any plainer. Aside from that, covery sheet in town has telephoned to ask your best friend . . . that’s me in case you don’t know it... when you intend divorcing Norman.” Judith reached for one of Clia’s cigarets, lighted it and puffed awk- wardly— “not going to,” s! n- nounced, “he’s going to divorce me.” What!” Cilia sat upright, sur prised for the first time. “That's why I'm here, to make it easy for him.” “Judith Dale, do you mean to sit there and tell me that Norman has said. he intends divorcing you?” “No, he didn’t but the newspaper sald—" “Judy, begin at the beginning.” She did and when she had com- pleted her story Clia reached for the telephone—“How you ever reached the age of twenty-four without the squirrels stuffing you inte some old hickory tree is beyond me... yes operator, Glencourt 58- 3200 . . . divorce you,” she sniffed, “you poor infant, don’t you know that’s what Lampere's after? “With Norman standing by you he can’t touch you... hello... ob, Delphy, this is Miss Clia. Is Mister Norman in ...oh...oh I see, when? All right, yes, sl here, Delphy, but she'll be back hom: in about an hour. Oh yes you will,” to the pro testing Judith. She slammed the receiver into Place, then darted to her clothes closet and in a few moments re turned, ready for the street-—“Come on, we're getting out to Hillendale before it’s too late . . . trot along. Where are my car keys, 1 wish someone would invent a car key with a bell that rang when you whistled ...oh there they are, right by my purse.” “Now,” she sald as they threaded traffic, “Norman has gone to Gal- veston. He had to be in court at ten o'clock. He left a letter for you with Delphy and the poor old woman ts nearly frantic.” Jadith felt her face flush. Had sh acted too hastily? But the nm paper article—surely she couldn't have remained in the house with Norman under the circumstances? “It you'd read that properly you'd have discovered the whole thing came from Lampere,” was Clla’s comment, Delphy was on the porch, her wrinkled black face puckered with worry—"Miz Dale, | sure is glad you is back, that there telamfoam has been ringin’ its fool head off. J say, Miz Dale way out in the gar den, leave yo’ numba an’ | see she call you.” “Delphy you're a gchien hearted diplomat,” Clia said. Delphy questioned the diplomat but she knew the meaning of a gold- em heart and went off for her in- table pot of hot chocolate, “Miz Dale was that white in the face.” D sparee went to her room, Nor man’s letter in her hand.

Remember you have all of my iove, Norman. “He’ah’s yo’ choc-late, Miz Dale.” Judy looked up. Delphy was at the | door, watching her anxiously. Ju- dith didn’t want the beverage but she did appreciate the affection of ! the old woman—“Thanks Delphy. It’s just what 1 need ... did you offer some to Clia?” Delphy cackled—“I su-ah did, an’ you should a heard that girl talk up to me. Are you all right now, Miz Dale? Don’t y’all reckon Lige better turn on th’ furnace?” Judith shook her head and smiled @ radiant smile. She had wondered at Delphy’s sudden insistence upon | using Mrs. Dale, instead of her cus- tomary Miss Judith. It was as though she sought to hold her to the estate of Norman Dale’s wife by a constant reminder. She sat a moment considering Norman's letter. She had thought she could see his side before. She had seen it but never felt it; now she suffered with nim. She folded the letter and put it into her hand- bag. There would be a way out of their difficulties. If they could just talk things over, there would be some way of compron:ising. E followed Delphy downstairs | H tS) to find Clia out-of-doors on her kness, picking violets — “Judy, you're not bright,” she said looking | up. “The idea of giving up a home like this just to tickle your temper.” She arose, hands busy with the pur- ple-headed blossoms, looked up for a brief moment, caught the expres- sion on Judith’s face and looked down quickly. “What are you going to do now?” “If 1 did what 1 wanted to do, I'd fly to Galveston on my own wings and tell Norman what a ninny I've been.” “Why tell him, he knows {t? But if you want to fly, I'll phone Slim. You realize of course he’d beat Ad- miral Byrd's time to the south pole if you crooked your little finger.” Judith laughed—“I'd prefer the Isle, if he would take me, here in time to get down there for dinner.” A telephone conversation with Slim Sanford assured her she would see Norman that night, so Judith went about the business of the new company. She had asked the members to hold a morning session without her, so after lunching with Clia, in the friendly clatter of the Rice Grill, she went to the bani. to take the afe deposit box sistance to carry thém ‘to Jidage Morgith’s office. Pausing at the door, Clia just be hind her, she looked in to see thir. teen men, instead of the seven who had followed her the preceding day A gasp from Clia, and a pull on her jacket made her hesitate, then turn back. “See that chap with the cat-in-the- cream expression and the salt and pepper pants?” demanded the red- head. “He handled the under-cover | work for Maritellan’s election.” “That means he's representing Lampere.” Judith caught the impli- cation quickly. “Clia, how soon can you give me something definite on him? These men are mostly engi- neers. They won't know him and | don’t want him in en our plans.” “I'll telephone our political edi- tor, then call you into Morgan's pri- vate office as soon as I'm ready.” Judith entered, was greeted with warm cordiality and led to the head of the long table by Justin Canard. There she sat and listened to a report of what had occurred that morning. Her mind, free of worry since Norman's letter, was completely engrossed in the prob lem before her. Cunard had just concluded when Judith was called to the telephone in the Judge's private office. Clia motioned for her to take. the re- ceiver and listen to the political. |, e@itqr’s reply to her question. When Judith returned to the board room her manner was brisk, alert. “Mr. Cunard,” she said, “before going further I wou'd like to greet the new members of our board and Meet the one whom | haven't met.” Judith spoke briefly to the men whom @! ad remembered seeing during previous meetings when she had acted as Tom Bevins’ secretary, then she turned to the stranger. “Aad Mr. Scathborne, J. C.
