ANNE AUSTIN THIS HAS WAPPENED Sally Ford is “farmed out” to Clem Carson the summer she is 16 and leaves the state orphanage, the only home she has known since she was four. At the farm she meets David Nash, athlete and student who | i working during the summer. When Carson makes insulting re- | marks about David's friendship with | Sally, David strikes the farmer a crushing blow. David and Sally run away and join & carnival, David as cook's help- er and Sally in a sideshow disguis-d as “Princess lalla,” crystal gaz Nita, the Hula dancer, becomes infatuated with David and threat- (ns Sally with exposure to the po- lice if she docsn’t give David up. Sallys tells Mrs. Bybee, wife of the | nival owner, that her mother cnee lived in Stanton, the town where the carnival is now showing, and the showman's wife agrces to investigate. She learns that the wo- | man who placed Sally in the Honi was not her mother, but a maid hired to take the baby from the real mother in New York and disappear. Sally is paralyzed to learn the carnival is next going to the capital city, wiere she spent so many years in the crphans’ home. Knowing thay ihe police arc after them and be- lieving they will be recognized, she hurries to tell David they must run away again. He comforts her and | tells her he will meet her t night after the train is loaded and they cun talk their plight over then. She waits excitedly that night for liis promised whistle beneath her | car window. When it comes, she litrries happily 4 the door, but she nofices that Nita's berth s/ vacant, NOW GO ON WITH TIIE STORY | CHAPT X111 The night w with voices irom unsecn bodies, or bodies, half- vevealed in the flare of gasoline torches, as the business of loading the carnival procceded. Soft. rich voices from black men's throats blended with the velvety softness of the late-Junc night: like had an| “Oh, it Ah angel, Over these would 11, Ah would fly to the ahms of my poah dahling’, theah Ah'd di wings prison walls Ah he willin' to An’ A Jonesome, heartbreaking | plaint. Sally shivered. Except for David and Pop Bybee and Dan, the barker, she and David might have been behind prison bars tonight, learning the shame and misery that | lad ereated that song. | A white roustabout sald some- | thing evil to her out of the corner| of his mouth as she brushed past him on her way to join David. But | she scarcely noticed, for there was | David, his shoulders looming im- mensely broad in the dark coat he had donned in her honor. Her hands were out to him before le | had reached her, and when he took them both and lald them softly ngainst his breast, so that her leap- ing blood caught the rhythm of his stron beating heart, she could reely restrain herself from raising her emall body on tiptoe and lifting her face for his Kiss. They were shy at first, as they drifted away from the show train | across the vacant lot where the carnival had so recently vended trickery and truth, freaks and fakes, color and light and noisc nd music. They walked softly, “owly, Sally having the absurd fecling that if the grass atubble were tender, tiny flowers, her joy- light feet would not have crushed them, Iler fingers were inter- twined with David's, and the clec- tric thrill of that contact scemed fo be the motor force which pro- | pelled her body.

We have no more buttons for members of the “Just Kids Safety Club.” However, we have ordered some move and by Saturday next should have a new supply for those who want to join the cluh. We have ceased to print the coupon for buttons and will publish it again when the new ones come in. We thought, when the club started, that a thousand buttons would be enough and that is all that we ordered. 3ut they were gone in four days and the second thousand has been ordered. The Herald sincerely hopes that the members of the club will do what they promised when they joined and be very careful when they are crossing the street. That promise is the only thing required of club members and we wish it lived up to. If it is, there should be no accidents to our younger readers—or to clubh members at least.
