CLEE RN T e N NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, JULY 6, 1928, SWEETHEARTS By IDAH McGLONE GIBSON Author of “My Son’s Sweethearts,” “Confessions of a Wife,” Etc. Copyright, 1928, by Central Press Association, Inc. Girls are funny things, he said to himself, as he ordered a cup of coffe e just to keep READ THIS FIRST: Lynda Fenton, daugter of John Fenton, a periodical drunkard, has | just obtained her first job as a typist in the office of Armitage & Son, own- | ers of one of the biggest factories in the United States. Her father continually harps upon | Lynda’s mother, how she ran away with & man who had more money than he. He insists every woman has her price and will yield to her destiny sooner or later. Lynda’s one friend and companion is David Kenmore, whose father has| sunk from prosperity to poverty through high living. He has obtained the job for her at Armitage & Son. But he begins to regret this when it {8 known that Ralph Armitage had “spotted” Lynda, Dave, meantime, had been attract- ed somewhat by another girl in the office, Emily Andrews. (NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY) o » CHAPTER 1V LYNDA MEETS EMILY ANDREWS At first Lynda didn't realize that the information of “Armi's” return wag meant for her, and then she felt her face grow hot, for there was a maliclous note in Emily Andrew's voice, She said nothing, however, The morning passed very swiftly. | When the 12 o'clock gong sounded, they all trooped out for luncheon. Then she suddenly remembered that in her hurry to get away she had brought nothing to eat with her. As she reached the sidewalk, &he felt a hand steal into hers, and a voice said, coaxingly: “Come on and dash over to the soda fountain with me for a bite. They have the best chocolate sun- daes in town.” Lynda turned quickly. Beside her was the girl whose desk was next to hers. “I never eat lunch,” for she realized that money with her. “Look here, old dear, what are you reducing for? You are nothing but skin and bones now. Come on, there goes Dave Kenmore, and if we can get a seat next to him, he'll pay for our lunch.” “David hasn't any more money than I have,” blurted out Lynda, and could have bitten her tongue out for the break. “Oh,” exclaimed Emily, “you know him, do you? I thought T saw you come in together this morning. Tell me all about him. I'm dying of curiosity. How does it come that you know him so well that you can gauge the amount of his shekels off- hand 2" “I've known id Kenmore ever since I was born,” replied Lynda. “Have you?" Thegirl came closer. “Isn't he the handsomest evir? Every girl in the office has fallen for him with a thud Lynda stopped still in amazement. “What do you mean, ‘fallen’?" she asked. “Look here, Miss Tnnocence. Don't pul that stuff on lil' Emily. Juet wait until the next time David walks through the office and you'll she had no see every girl in he place lamp him. He | gets more attention, from everybody but me, than even Armi himself. Oh, 1 don't mean to say that I'm not as sweet on him as the rest, but lil’ Emily knows her cream pie. T've been in that office ahout two yeare and T've learned a thing or two not | handed out in schoel, and she fibbed, | one of them fs, it a fellow thinks you are chasing him, he'll run like a rabbit; s0 I've been most Ritzy, old dear, most R-I-T-Z-Y. I'm glad to say that up to date virtue has been re- warded. I'm the only girl that Mister Davie has paid any attention to | whatever.” By this time Emily had managed to pull Lynda to the entrance of the | drug store, and they met David com- |ing out. Lynda was for hurrying on, | | but Emily stopped. “Hello,” David called happily. “I'm glad you've already made the ac- quuintance of the nicest girl at Armitage's, Lynda.” | For the rest of her life Lynda Fen- | ton would remember her wonder at| | the sharp little twinge of pain at her heart when she heard David say this. | It was like nothing she had ever ex- | perienced before. | *“Davia Kenmore, you're sheiking again,” remarked Emily, dimpling. “I knew Lynda was the sort I'd like the minute she joined the force, 80 | I spoke to her right away. She tells | me ehe doesn’t cat lunch, but I've been telling her she needn't be care- ful of her diet yet. She has a more | bovish figure now than the boys| themselves.' David understood right away that | Lynda was not eating because she' | had no money. | “Come, girls, I'll stake you. T was just looking for Miss Andrews to ask | her to lunch.” | He could have choked himself | when he saw Lynda's expression, After a frigid silence, in which | Lynda was sure that she could not "have made her tongue behave if she | had tried to speak, she managed to | say: ‘ “Thanks, but T've just told Miss Andrews that 1 do not cat luncheon. Il leave you now and get back to the office. 1 have to work a little longer to catch up, as I'm a new be- ginner, you know." She marched off with her head in | the air, and David went into the drug | store with Emily Andrews, where | she ordered a chicken sandwich and a chocolate nut sundae. As she | ate, he could not help thinking of | I 1ynda pounding away at her type- writer, David looked at Emily narrowly. Somehow she did not seem as fasci- nating as she had at first. | The tittle, sleck, lack head of !1ynda seemed much more beautiful than Emily Andrews' much-curled | 10cks. | “I don’t think | teach Lynda much David kept thinking, as he walked back of | Emily into the drug etore, and as she | sat down at the table he decided that [ he liked Lynda's straight-forward sincerity much more than he did Emily’s sophistication. He wished he didn’t remember | how little Lynda usually ate in the morning. Knowing her so well, he realized that in her pride she would not accept a luncheon from him if &he knew she couldn’t pay for it. Still he was somewhat mystified fo think that Emily and Lynda did not seem to hit it off together at all. Girls are funny things, he said to himself, as he ordered a cup of cof- fee just to keep Emily company. Tell me about your childhood's paesion,” Emily demanded, after she had satisfied the first edge of her hunger.
