She attempted to rise to her feet. Reuben held out a steadying hand. The touch of his fingers sent blood hurrying through Judith’s veins, fire to her cheeks. “Judith,” his voice was warm and even. “I’m sorry about Jim.” Of course, that was why he had come, He was being kind. Judith’s pride made 4 last bid for recogni- tion, then faltered before a terri longing to know the truth. “You got my letter?” “No.” Reuben took a step for- | ward. He seemed to tower above her, a brown, controlled stranger. Then he didn’t know how she loved him. All strength deserted her. Suddenly Reuben’s angry, part- ing words thundered in her ears. “If you go now you need never try to come back.” It seemed hope- | less to try to bridge the chasm that separated them. She might have known it was too late. Her words sounded strained, un- | even, as if she were forcing con- versation with a casual acquaint- ance. “How did you get here?” “Cissy brought me,” smoothly. without trace of feeling. Judith’s knees weakened: If you go’ now you nee never try? to come back.” Life was a aia street .. .you could never gq 3 “Shall ‘we go into the-irouse," its Reuben was saying. “You” must have plans to discuss with ‘iHe.” Judith couldn't bear it apy, long- er. Humiliation, trampled pride, anything was better than this. An irrepressible sob broke from her. Her hands stretched out. “Reuben . . . oh Reuben, can’t you see?” He couldn't yet believe what he wanted with al) his heart to be- lieve. Struggling with the longing to crush her in his arms was the desire for self-protection. He wouldn’t be hurt again. This time he‘must be sure. petuditht Reuben’s heart missed a beat as he met her eyes—ringed with black shadows as they had been the night the twins were born. She was thinner, too—‘Ju- dith—I came half way across the world.” The wall crumbled. In an instant peas was be cupping ner tra; ic face in ‘ell me I've found you, you, Judith laith.

This article is the fifth of a se- ries.) Nearly everyone in Havana likes to dress in style. The latest creations from New York are sent to Havana shops, and you can see young girls and older ladies looking in the windows at all times. It is surprising in the is- land so far away from the fashion modes of life. At all social gath- erings you see hat, shoes, and suit matching in color. At the ‘den on Sunday evenings when the majority gather to dance and dine, you can see fashion at its latest in dress and hair dress T was honored by my friends in ‘Cuba the day before I sailed for Key West with a supper at the Polar Gardens. There is where I realized how many Key Westers are in Havana. You ‘can count them by the score. There are scores of hospitals and clinics in Havana. The public hospitals and clinics are open to the poorer class of people and are modern in equipment. The lead. ing ones are the de Mercedes, sponsored by Catholic Chureh of Cuba, the supervision of the govern- ment, the Emergencias, and the Calixto Garcia.

York Giants were idle, Chi- cago Cubs were proceeding to cut off a half-game of the Giants’ | League, which is now only two full contests. Big Bill Lee was on the mound ‘for the Windy City Tribe yester- day afternoon in its battle with Pittsburgh Pirates and between his pitching and Gabby Hartnett’s hitting, the Bucs didn’t have a chance, as the score will prove, Leéé gave up just six hits, while his teammates were bunching 10 to shutout the Pirates, 5 to 0. In the first night game played this season, Cincinnati Reds edg- ‘ed out St. Louis Cardinals, 2 to 1, in 10 innings. Bill McGee and VanderMeer staged a_ brilliant pitching duel despite the fact the Reds garnered 11 safeties off Mc- Gee. Setting a record for the longest hit ball in the Chicago White Sox ballfield was Hank Greenberg, yesterday afternoon. The mighty Detroit Tigers slugger connected with one of Gabler’s slants and sent it over the centerfield bleachers, a distance of 440 feet from home plate. Meanwhile, Vernon Kerhedy won his seventh stfaight game, allowing the Sox’ only six safétiék. °'Gabler, former , National eae was making his first Ameriebn’ e début as a startifig pitcher, Results of the games follow: jational N League At Pittsburgh R.H.E.
