NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, JULY 25, 1928 SWEETHEARTS By IDAH McGLONE GIBSON Author of “My Son’s Sweethearts,” “Confessions of a Wife,” Etc. Copyright, 1928, by Central Press Association, Inc. READ THIS FIRST: Lynda Fenton, a singularly inno- cent and lovely girl, secures her tirst job With Armitage & Son, and a few days later is made private secretary to Ralph Arniitage, Her tather, a drunkard, has spoil- <d her life becausc he continually tells her that her mother geserted them, and that all women have their price. Lynda meets Emily who cherishes a seeret Lavid Kenmore, Lynda's companion (rom childhood. Emily plots various consequences detrimental to Lynda. David tells Lynda he loves her. Lynda’s father, too, and Claire Stanhope comes to live with her. Claire tells of love for FKred Blaque, who she Andrews, | tondness for | deserts her, | innocent | afterwards learns is a married man. | Ralph Armitage pays Lynda art- ful compliments, and increases her salary. Claire tells Lynda it's com- mon gossip that Ralph is intergeed in her, and advises Lynda to be careful. Lynda uses lipstick, for the first time, to hide her innocence, NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XX LYNDA LEARNS ABOUT MEN Ralpnh Armitage looked at Lynda's mouth #nd smiled. During the morning he said: “I hear you are living with Claire Stanhope.” “Yes, or rather, she is living with me, Mr. Armitage.” 'Did she recommend the lipstick? While I personally do not like it, I must tell you it is becoming, al- though it changes your entire face.” “One has to follow a universal tashion. One cannot be out of step with one’s regiment. “You can afford to be individual. I am very sorry that you feel you must be one of the feminine mob, but perhaps, after all, Claire hope is right. You never could de- ceive anyone if you had on the mouth that 1 saw on you yesterday, and woman's strongest weapon, cince Eve learned to be a diplomat, is to be able to say one thing and think another, “Now your eyes are blue interro- gation points, but 1 will not answer them, By the way, 1 hear you and my father's pet protegy, David Ken- ‘inore, have been pals ever since you were a child. Are you in love with him?" “Does one ever fall in love with a pal, Mr. Armitage?"” Bravo! The lipstick is working. You would never have said that to me yesterday. Is he in love wita you, then?" “Who has been Davie and me to asked. As if in answer to her question, there was a tap at the door, and Emily Andrews entered, bringing a bundle of form letters. m afraid they are all wrong, Mr. Armitage,” she explained, as she held them out to him, “as I couldn’t Qdecipher Lynda’s instructions.” Lynda almost snatched them from Emily, and turned to her employer. “Will you let me decipher my own instructions in the future, Mr. Armi- tage?” she asked. Although her painted mouth was smiling, there was fury in her voice. “Will you be able to do all that work, Miss Fenton, as well as the real work as my secretary?" “Certainly 1 will. 1 could have done all of these yesterday, easily, while you were away. Please let me try. I car do all your work, and more. Any girl can who is not la “All right, you try it for a while, Miss Fenton,” acquiesced Ralph Armitage. “I'll send nothing qut of my office, even if I have to have two stenographers in here. Until further notice, Miss Andrews,” continued, “Miss Fenton will tran- scribe all the letters from my office, besides taking my dictation.” Out of the tail of her eye, Lynda caught a little quizzical smile on the ‘young boss’s” face, and ehe under- stood that Andrews’ tactics quite as she, herself, had done. Emily left ihe office immediately, more deter- mined to get even with Lynda than ever, As soon as she had left the room, Ralph Armitage turned to Lynda and said: “You don't like very well?” 1 hardly know her, Mr. tage. I've only met her since heen here.” ‘S8he is & very bright woman, but sometimies she reaches herself,” and then, though he had said too much, Ar- mitage resumed his businesslike manner, and asked Lynda to call a number for him. While he was talking, about Lynda talking you?" well as Miss Andrews young over- as &he made he | he had fathomed Emily | Armi- Ive | lipstic| ter that Emily had brought in, an silently placed them on his desk as she went to luncheon. & rubbed her lips clean of the reddencd gl Letore she her sandwicn. She had not buen using rouge long enough to be able to see | a broad red mark where she had bitten into her chicken sandwich without a little squeamishness Lynda had not expected to tind Mr. Armitage in his officc when she returned, and her vanity was @ little thrilled to see his face light up when he caught sight ot her. You are an earncst employe, | Miss Fenton!” he exclaimed. 0 “What makes you think so?" “Because 1 see you have washed |, off that sticky red stuff you had on |, your lips this morning, as 1 sug- gested.” | "I took it oft to eat my sand- she said, looking into the mirror of her vanity case, “but now —uwell, perhaps, 1 think I'll go into hiding again.” Somewhat afraid she would do it awkwardly, she took the red stick out of her bag and, holding the tiny | mirror in front of her mouth, she [, drew a conventional Cupid's bow. It totally changed her appearance. She wasn't even sure she liked it her- self, but she was sure that she wa not going to let Ralph Armitage de- cide what she should do to her per- sonal appearance. As she raised her eyes to her em- ployer's face, she found that he we frowning while intently watching her, su ate ol S n |s | | 'm glad T saw you before you !, began to use that atrocious thing” he said, as he got up from his desk and left the room. i He didn’t come back all the { |afternoon, but Lynda had plenty to b keep her busy.

Ga- de- DRUNKEN DRIVING * BRINGS JALL TERM Conlinement Penalty Restored in Addition to $150 Fine The first enforced jail meted out to a drunken sentence driver in {locai police court in some time, was | I given to Edward Bazylewicz, aged 121, of 151 Lyons street by Judge M. D. Saxe toda; Pleading guilty to charges of evading responsibility after an accident, and driving while under the influence of liquor. Bazy- | lewicz was fined $50 on the first count and $100 on the second, with a five day jail sentence added to the latter penalty. The practice in the local court has been to suspend jail sentences in the case of first of- nders but Judge Saxe remarked that Bazylewicz's offense was seri- ous in that he was not only intoxi- cated but caused damage to an au- tomobile and ran away from the scene, After Officer George Moffitt had testified that a car owned by John Janaites of 50 Magnolia street was struck while parked on Beaver street, near Washington street, yes- terday afternoon, by a car driven by Razylewicz, who was arrested after - had run through backyards in ‘the vicinity of Curtin and Lasalle treets, Bazylewicz took the witness nd and when asked what he had o say, answered: “The only thing 1 have to say is I was crazy drunk ind 1 did not know what 1 was do- ing. If your honor will be lenient and place me on probation I will pay for the damage 1 did and also pay my fine.” Bazylewicz was so intoxicated that {he would not or could not give his name, according to the police. { was booked as John Bazylewicz, but later it was learned that his first name was Edward. The car he was driving was registered in his moth- er's name.
