- SWEETHEARTS By IDAH McGLONE GIBSON Author of “My Son’s Sweethearts,” “Confessions of a Wife,” Etc. Copyright, 1938, by Central Pross Amociation, Inc. READ FIRST: ‘Lynda Fenton is private secretary to Ralph Armitage, who has an in- sane wife, Lynda's father, a drunk- ard, tells her that her mother de- serted them, and that all women have their price, Sometimes she re- flects, and thinks he may be righ Emily Andrews, who cherishes a secret fondness for David Kenmore, Lynda's friend from childhood, plots against Lynda. David tells Lynda that he loves her, but she decides she doesn’t want to be in love with any man. Then Lynda's father, too, deserts her, and Claire Stanhope comes to live with her. Ralph Arm- itage is enthralled by Lynda’s inno- cent charms and, although he can- not marry her, he says he loves her, | and wants her for his own. Emily Andrews contrives a break between Lynda and David, who resigns his job with Armitage. | Ralph comes to believe that Ly 4 loves him; but she doesn’t. she views the world with so- modern eyes and, although fond of Ralph, only his him, she says, She thinks of Davi and wonders where her future hap- | piness lies. Then Emily Andera‘ comes with guile, and hints " that | David has turned to her. Ralph| writes that he is going away, to stay | until Lynda decides what she will| de. David writes good-bye, and Ralph's father asks her to retain her | position. (NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY) ; CHAPTER LVIT | LYNDA DECIDES TO THINK FOR | HERSELF Lynda’s lips curved into a rather sarcastic smile. 8he knew that note she had just received was not all that the elder Armitage would like | to have written, but for such ps it | was, she accepted it, and made up her mind to drift accepting whatev- | er she decided was best for the mo- ment, without any thought of the future. The door opened, and this tele- | gram was handed her: “When will you let me know my fate? Each hour seems a million | yeoars. Hastily she typed an answer, “Have decided to stay here at the office, for a while, at least. Will let you know the answer to your im- | plied question tomorrow. L” This was sent to the hospital and & note sent to Mr. Armitage, senior, in quite as formal words as his had been, saying: “If T can be of any service to you, | will be glad to stay at the office as long as you want me to do. “Thanking you for asking me, “Bincerely, “LYNDA FENTON.” She was not to get through the day without another unexpected communication. Her father's lawyer called her up and said that he had recelved & wire from New Orleans, saying that a man, who had been identified by his employers as Fen- ton, had been hit by an automobile the day before, and killed. “They found my name among his effects, and learned, also, that he had @ daughter. They asked me to let you know, Lynda, and ask you ‘what disposition you would wish to make of the body, Before I called you up, my dear, I wired that it should be held until I could get thére to claim it. I am going down on the evening train, Lynda. It is needless for you to go with me.” * “Poor old Dad,” Lynda whispered, brokenly. As soon as possible she got the correspondence out of the way, and ut five o'clock she started home. Very soon’ afterwards Claire came, ‘with & look of happiness on her face that Lynda had not seen upon it be- fore. She told her ths news about her father. Claire sald very little, as she knew that there had been little in common between Lynda and her father, and that when the shock of his sudden death wore off it would be relief to her to know that at his turbdlent life was over. ave you heard how Ralph is?" she asked. “I had a telegram from him this afternoon,” answered Lynda. “T imagine he is getting along as well as_anyone could bope. “I also had a letter from David. He has resigned from Armitage & 8on’s and has gone over to Steward & Cos. 1 would like you to read the letter, Claire, if it will not bore you.” *“What makes you think it 1 bore me, Lynda? I have not asked | you about your affairs because I did not want to seem curious, but you ought te have known, dear girl, that no one could be more interested in all that was happening to you, than I. Fred told me last night, and I intended to tell you, but Emily was here, that Ralph sent for him to come to the hospital. When he got there he told him that he was go in love with you that his only desirc te devote his future to making | 228 Fred thinks it 1s real love, at last, with Ralph, just as his love for | me ia the only real emotion that he | me it what Ralph can give me will compensate for the loss of friends and the knowledge that all the re- | mainder of my life I will be, more or less, the subject of scandalous gossip. What shall 1 do, Claire?” “What about David, Lynda?” “I will tell you honestly that had David Kenmore believed in me, I would never have though of Ralph, but David did not believe, and I have suffered too much because my father did not believe in me, to think I would be happy With anoth- er man who could harbor any sus- picion of a woman he professed to love. “After this, Claire, T am only go- ing to think of myself. 1t is going to be what will make me happiest. Vhat shall 1 do, Claire?” again asked Lynda Fenton. “My dear girl, I would not pre- sume to advise you in this, the most important decision of your life, but I would say she's | me for my advice is almost proof; money | that you are not sure that to accept | would lead her to give hersclf t0 | Ralph Armitage will bring you hap- piness.” “Oh, dear,” said Lynda, with a hearfelt sigh. “1 wish I could talk it over with Davie.” 8he caught Claire’s horrified expression, and burst out laughing. Until then she had not realized how the speech had sounded. Neither had she realized how much she had depended upon him all her life, and what a void there would be if David should go out of it. CHAPTER LVIIT 1S THIS A WAY OUT “You certainly are a queer one, Lynda,” Claire exclaimed, “to think of any girl wanting to talk over the possibility of of her becoming the sweetheart of another, with the man to whom she is practically engaged, would seem impossible. This would be a most tragic situation if it were not so perfectly ridiculous. “Nothing that I could or would say, dear, would have any effect up- on you, I am sure, but there is one thing I want to impress upon you very hard, and that is—go slow. Ralph is still in the hospital. A day or two will not make very much dif- ference. You have evidently gained the respect, if not regard, of Mr. Armitage, senior. Let well enough alone for the present.” The door bell pealed. “That s Fred,” Claire exclaimed. *I said I would go and drive with him for a while tonight.” Lynda extended her hands. “Dear Claire, I am glad you are going to be happy.” “And so am I, Lynda,” answered Claire, as she opened the door and, flinging back a good-bye with, *I won't be gone long,” she went out, leaving Lynda alone, She sat quite still after Claire had left, trying to think, but at last.she found that her brain refused to function and, jumping up, she slip- ped into her coat, and pulling her hat down on her head, went out in- to the street. Tt was twilight now. A purplish graw shadow had settled over every- thing. “There is no more use of waiting,” she said to herself. “I will only be unsettled and unhappy until I have decided one way or another. I will just go over to the hospital and tell Ralph that whenever he decides that he wants me enough to go against his father's wishes, I will go to him. Poor Ralph, he is not to blame because Fate has played him a sorry trick.” flowly she turned toward the hos- pital, and presently she found her- self in among a more than usual number of pedestrians who all seem- ed making for a central meeting place, a big wooden building. Almost unconsciously, Lynda followed the crowd, which seemed composed of men and women in the middle walk of life, with more young people than old. She looked about her curiously. Every face had a joyous expression upon it. They all seemed happy. Because of the looks of these people, she decided to go where they were going. If there was a place where a kind of happiness could be found, that was impervious to all the stings of destiny—that was inpregnable to sorrow’s onslaught. She wanted to find it. ‘When she arrived within the Aud- rtorium, it was well filled, and a man was playing the great pipe organ in a masterly manner. The music at one time thundering, and then soft- ening down to a tender crooning, was balm to Lynda’s perturbed spir- 1t. Already she felt surrounded by an atmosphere of comforting pe: already much of her wordly agita- tion had left her. Down the broad center aisle came a vested choir of young men and women, singing “Onward Christian Soldiers,” all of them having on their faces that same expression of mysterious inner happiness. The vast audience rose to its feet as behind them a woman came int view. She was tall, and had the ge erous shapes and curves of an an- tinque. statue, rather that the straight lines of the women of today. o has ever had.” “But, Claire,” said T.vnda, rather | bitterly, “neither of them spoke of | making us happy unless he shared | that happiness. | “Dear Lynda, you have learned so | much of how a man looks upon life in the last two months, that it has | overloaded your brains and your heaet. Bome time you will know that | no man who thinks he is in love with & woman can conceive any hap- | piness for her that he does not | sh Iready have come to that con- clusion, Claire, and T want to ask vour advice, dear.

She mounted the rostrum, and as the last note of the hymn died on the air, she said in a voice that held a most peculiar magic, “I want e person in this building to turn | nd shake hands with the person on the right.” Tn a minute or two she continued “Now, shake hands with the pers on the left. There was another rustle made hy the people turning, and then the words. “Let us pray “Oh Lord, thou knowest that to- night every one in this temple, dedi- cated to Thee, has come with his own secret sorrow happiness knowing that Thou will heal his sor- row, and enjoy his happiness—* The resonant voice filled the udi- ited representative of the Great Comforter. There seemed to be magic in its tones, even greater than the com- forting words than it uttered. Lynda found herself listening with a rapt attention that feared to lose one intonation—one syllable. At last the woman who was talk- ing threw back her cape of heavenly blue that made a background of he? white gown silhouetted against it, and dramatically pointing her fing- er, it scemed to Lydia, directly at | herself, said, “and you, my dear | young girl, who have come here to- njght to get some expression of sympathy on your own problem, per- haps have said in extenuation of the you contemplate, ‘my love is o love, however great, can ex- cuse a sin, and it you think it is love whispering an excuse, remem- ber that T tell you it 1s the devil, who would have you barter your soul.” After that Lynda did not hear old-fashioned phrase rang in her cars. She sat down as the hymns were finished. he listened in a daze, as here and there in the audience a man or woman rose and told what the Savior of man had done for them. The reaction she got from it all was that she must sce this woman who spoke with such authority. From her she would surely get the advice that was right. When the meeting was over, Lyn- da was one of the first that reached the preacher. “Will you let me speak with you alone?” she asked. The woman turned tired eyes up- {on the eager questioner and seemed about to refuse when something in Lynda's face made her pause. “I would not trouble you,” the girl said falteringly, “but I am in great trouble, and something you said made me think that you could tell me what to do—that you could give me the peace and comfort that I cannot find.” The preacher looked curiously, If compassionately, into the patheti- cally troubled face before her and sald. “Walt here for a while, and T will see you for a moment after these people are gone.” (TO BE CONTI ED) SEARCH FOR BOY ROBBERS Mass, Youths, Hired as Farmhands, Disappcar and Jewelry Goes Also From Orange Home.

On the charges of drunkenness and assault, the penalty was §15 and costs and a suspended jail sentence of 15 days. Hoffman and Lindquist were ar- rested about 7:20 last night by Mo- torcycle Officer Louis E. Harper in a three room tenement at 278 ‘Elm street, and at the same time Edward C. Farrell, aged 29, of the Hotel Savoy, Hartford, formerly of New Britain, and Bert Timbrell, aged 53, of 712 Stanley street, were taken by the same officer, who charged them with being drunk. Thomas Kane, aged 31, of 27 Olive street, was ar- rested & short time later on the charge of breach of the peace, Offi- cer Harper testifying that Kane was one of three who ran out while the others were being caught. Kane de- |nied having been in the tenement |at the time, but the officer was posi- tive he had seen him leaping off a veranda. Judge Roche fined Kane $10 and costs, Lindquist $10 and costs for drunkenness and assault on Hoffman, Farrell $10 and costs with a suspended commitment to the state farm, and imposed a commit- ment to the state farm in Timbrell's |case. Assistant Prosecuting Attor- |ney W. M. Greenstein told the court a son of Timbrell had telephoned the request for commitment, father is not wanted at home on ac- count of his drinking habits. Policeman Forces in Door Officer Harper received a com- plaint that there was a fight in the tenement and when he arrived, someone braced himself against the door and would not admit him, The officer thereupon forced in the door and saw Hoffman and Lindquist in a fighting pose. Lindquist was found to have a bottle of alleged *moonshine” in his pocket and there were several empty bottles having traces of alcohol about the tene- ment, while one bottle was partly full of the same kind of liquid as that carried by Lindquist, A drink- ing glass was also found. Lindquist, after declining to com- ment on the charge of drunkenness and assault, was called to the wit- ness stand as the star witness against Hoffman on the liquor law violation charge. He testified that he bought a pint of alleged liquor from Hoffman and paid him $1.50 for it, but Hoffman, in his own defense, denied that he ever sold liquor to anyone, and remarked that he would like to know where the money went if Lindquist had paid him, as he was almost entirely with- out money all day. Questioned by Mr. Greenstein Hoffman sald he rented the tene- ment with the intention of living in it with his wife and children, but after he had paid a month’'s rent in advance, his wife decided to move to Hartford. Being unable to ob- tain a refund of the rental, he de- cided to use it as his headquarters, his occupation at present being a clothing salesman. for a company of “woolen people” in the west. He had been in the tenement only two days, he sald, and he was certain he had samples of the clothing somewher: in the three rooms. He could not recall the name of the tirm employing him because he had been in the business only a few days, he said. Brought Their Own “Lunch” Asked why he had so many bot- tles on the premises, he replied that Farrell owned one, Lindquist owned another, Kane brought one, and { | | as his| men named McCormick and McNa- mara had brought one each. The two latter had run away when Offi- cer Harper arrived, to. Hoffman, and it was McNamara who had caused whatever disturb- ance there was before the police were notified. Asked what the men were. doing in the tenement, Hoff- man replied that he believed they had dropped in “to be . sociable.” Judge Roche interrupted the exam- ination to remark that unless Mr. Greepstein considered it important, he was not inclined to listen to any more of it, as he was satisfied that the only samples Hoffman had in the tenement were the botties before the court. Relative to Hoffman's part in the assault, Judge Roche remarked that Hoffman was propri- etor of the place and had lied about the case, According 1o Sergeant Stadler's testimony, there was a - bedstead with aspring, one table and one chair_in the tenement. After court Hoffman, who was without funds, gave notice of an appeal to super- for court, having pleaded not gullty to all charges, z Attorney Yale Sable represented Farrell, and told the court Farrell's father would take him to Norwich and put him to work-if given a chance, . Farrell has fallen in with bad company and might be able to reform it separated from his com- panions, the attorney said. | Fined $10 Alex Baraglia, aged 21, of 151 Lasalle street, pleaded gullty to the charge of speeding and was fined $10 and costs. Motorcycle Officer David Doty testified that the young man was driving on Washington street at 6:10 last evening at the rate of 35 to 38 miles an hour. Baraglia admitted that he had driv- en too fast but not as fast as the officer claimed. Violates Road Rules Arnold J. Turgeon, aged 16, of 1466 Arch street, who was arrested by Bergeant Stadler on the charge of reckless driving after a collision last Saturday night at Main and Lee streets, pleaded guilty to the charge of violation of the rules of the road and ‘was fined $5 and costs on rec- ommendation of Mr, Greenstein. Mr. Greenstein said he had considered the facts and decided that they did not warrant. the . reckless riving charge, a0 he changed it, Turgeon having. admitted that he had failed to keep to the right of the center of the intersection. Turgeon was represented by Attorney Yale Sable. Admits Noa-Support Morris Milstein, aged 52, of 44 Camp street, pleaded guilty to the charge of non-support and Miss Wachter of the Welfare association testified that he was under a court order to pay $8 a week to his wife since 1925 but had failed to pay more than $5 a week. In 1927 he paid only $2 a week five times, and since March, 1928, he has been paying the same amount. Milstein was called to the stand and was being questioned by Mr. Greenstein when it was brought out that his wife was a resident of New York, which raised the question of jurisdiction and on recommendation of Mr. Greenstein the case was con- tinued until tomorrow. The case of Bior Johnson, aged 40, of.770 John street, charged with violation of the liquor law, was con- tinued until tomorrow.

He said that {he would appear before the coun- cil later today for the purpose of placing Lithuania’s case squarely before that body. All attempts by private negotia- tion to reestablish normal relations between the two countries, he de- clared, had ended in failure.
