FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1936. THE WORLD WITH A FENCE A New Novel by Marian Sims SYNOPSIS: It cost Carot Tor- ce more than she dared admit, even to herself, to send the charm- ing but unreliable Denis Ford away to his new job in Washington. She had left little but the problem of one of her pupils in the Ashboro high schoot ‘ike Hannigan. Mike was being pursued by Annabel Monroe ; quite suddenty she caught him, married him. and now Mike has ‘run away from it all But be- fore gotng, Mike called briefly on Carol to thank her for what she had hoped to do for him, Chapter 19 DEAR MRS.

Finally he looked up from the formless hieroglyphics. “No,” he said angrily. “We need your sort; your record here has beer remarkable. Let’s ignore it and see if it won’t blow over.” She smiled faintly. “Such a help to successful teaching—waiting to see ff it will blow over. Think hard, Mr, Hudson, and don’t) mind me.” Aside from''the disgrace, she thought dully, I'd be glad of an ex- { cuse''to get away. But her own in- difference only served tu strengthen Mr. Hudson's determination.

She said quietly: | “My- friend Mrs. Taylor, of course,” and laughed shortly. He seemed to be waiting, so she went on. *Mr. Hudson, I never felt as sorry | for anybody in my life as | do for! Mike Hannigan. He was the most | promising pupil in Ashboro, and he | Carol saw Ben fi was a burnt offering ff | ever saw one.” Once launched, she hurried on.) “Mike came to me the first day of school and told me his ambition—to be a lawyer, and make something of himself. He knew his limitations and his obstacles, and he made me promise to warn him if he started slipping. Until this happened he never went to a class unprepared. and he never looked at Annabel un. til he finally had to see her or step | ow her.” Mr. Hudson said reluctantly: “That's a little hard to believe.” “A great many true things are. The pupils knew it: you could see it in their faces. If you could induce tiem to talk they'd admit it. “As for what Mrs. Taylor saw: Mike came to me in sheer despera- tion. He knew I'd banked on him, and he wanted to try and make me understand. It wasn’t necessary, of course, but he didn’t know that. And | didn’t urge bim to run away; on the contrary | told him it would get easier as time went on and Annabel’s parents came to accept him. “He broke down and cried. He | even put his head against my shoul. der for as mucl as tive seconds. Since Mrs. Taylor must have been watching the whole thing in order to see that (does she sit with her chair at that window, Mr. Hudson?) she could tell you that was all. Only she won't, of course.” M®. HUDSON was back at his desk now, drawing form'ess designs on the blotter. The sound | and odor of truth were in Carol's voice, and for the first time in a chivalrous, sentimental life he con- signed an old woman to perdition He said wretchedly: “I'm inclined to believe you, Miss Torrance. | can’t entirely agree with you. although ! see Mike's side of it now. You modern young people are outside my ken.” He said {t re gretfully, sensing an absence of cer- tainty and a clearness of outlook that he had never known. “The trouble is,” he added, “that Mrs. Taylor is talking. . . .” 4 She ~okec at her clenched bande’ and relaxed them with an effort. “I see. So I'm to be the other burnt offering. Shall I resign sow?” | A | wife—in Florida or somewhere at | the moment—but you might wangle ew York Giants defeated the St.| Louis Cardinals and~ increased their lead in the National League pennant race to four games, right back where they were when the series with the Cards, got under way. The Giants used their pitch- in ace, Carl Hubbell, while the Redbirds had their mainstay, Jerome “Dizzy” Dean in the box. The Brooklyn Dodgers shutout the Chicago Cubs, 1 to 0, in a ten- iinning battle. Mungo pitched for the victors. The Cubs lost a chance to tie the Redbirds for sec- ond place. The Phillies and the Pirates di | vided honors in a twin bill, while Cincinnati took both games of a jdoubleheader from the ° Boston Bees, the first game being a shut- then shut it.

It was the final game_of the se-; ries... Lauderdale. took’ the opener third io - heir _ pitcher, bty n, had the opposition eating out of his hands.

With one gone and the seore 5 to 0 against them the home boys, the fans degan to file out of | the stadium. But then the fireworks started. Frank Tuppen lost his magnificent control of the ball and so doing, lost the game. Walks 9nd wild pitches, coupled with two hits, gave the Awning team six runs, which was enough to cinch the game. The victors will journey to Or- lando in the near future to meet the winners of other sections of Florida for the state champion- ship.” Local fans are 100 percent for the East Coast winner and should Protectu eliminate all other teams, it will be the second straight year a local player has been on a state ehampion club.
