1%, READ THIS8 FIRST: Emmy Milburn, at seventeen, wanted to lift hersel? from the sor- didness of the little street she lived in, te the heights where she felt she properly belonged. After a par- ty given by her rich cousin, Mari- anna, she resolved to better herself some day. Meantime she took a business course, paid for by her Grandmother Pentland, and snubbed, as well as she could, Robd Hollis, the boy down the street, who worked in a mill, and who rep- resented the life she determined never to let herself sink into. Mari- anna tells Emmy she is going to marry Jim Baldwin next day, and to keep it a secret. Emmy succeeds in getting a stenographic job —her first position—and is immensely pleased that she will recelve twenty- two dollars a week. She figures it will only be a little time before she can get an apartment of her own and leave Flower street forever. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXVII 1t was almost seven o'clock now, and along the eastern sky the sil- ver-gray light of the dawn was showing. Against it the roofs of the houses across the street showed sharply black, like houses cut out of black paper. It was a beautiful sight. But no matter how beautiful the winter dawn was in the sky, it al- ways seemed murky and dirty down in the street itself. Along the nar- row sidewalks, covered with slush and churned black mud, came the mill workers in their dark, sad- looking clothes, with their tin lunch boxes under their arms. And along with the last of them appeared a figure that she knew. . . . Robb, He was talking and laughing. Emmy could catch the sound of his voice as the wind tossed 1t up to her for an msmm.” ~He's just one of them, after all)’ she thought, watching him throw away his cigarette and disappear into the employes’ entrance nfl the grim-looking old building. “He's in a better job than the rest of thwn.v. and he's good and fine. But that's his life—the mill. It would be my lite it 1 married him, and 1! 1 sm)\ here 1 will marry him.” No, she must get away from here. She mustv go on her own way as s_he was planning to do. She mustn't weak- en now. “S:e slipped into & black broad- cloth dress of Marianna's that Mrs. Milburn had made over into an Of-‘ fice dress tor her.

The kitchen of the little ‘house was the warmest and coziest room in it. And there, at one end of the long table under the windows Mrs. Milburn had spread a white cloth for Emmy's breakfast. “] poached a couple of eggs for you,” she sald as Emmy drained her little glass of orange juice. “I don’t want you to get into the habit of rushing out of the house on an empty stomach.” 'No, Mother—" Emmy’s voice was full of absent-mindedness. Her gray eyes were fixed on the grocer's cal- endar that hung on the wall oppo- site her. Four pay days in February, she was reflecting. That meant almost ninety dollars before the first of March. It seemed like riches when she thought of it that way. “I can buy & coat on the fifteenth or so.” she told herself comfortably, “and by the first of March T'll be able to rent & room for myself some- where, perhaps. By the second week, anyhow!” “You're not starting now, @& you?” her mother asked in amaz ment, as she got up from the table | and picked up the dowdy between- [ittleYellow House “I can't wa it to begin!” seasons coat that was hung on the back of a chair before the be warmed for her. it's only You've due at “I know stove to “Why, Emmy, half past scven a whole hour before the Parks Building."

You'll see what I mean” Miss Ingham answered cryptically. i was a small black-eyed girl th short black hair that lay in lops around her face like the hair painted on a China doll. Every Lour or so she took a mirror, a lip- stick, and a powder puff from the top drawer of her desk and carefully made up her little heart-shaped face. “You'd look wonderful if you'd have your hair shingled,” she told Emmy one noon as they walked up Euclid avenue toward the Colon- ade Lunch Room. Emmy hought a cup of coffee there every day to top off the sandwiches that her mother packed for her in the morning. After she had finished it and Miss Ingham had eaten her salad and re- ducing bread—thin as she was, she a horror of fat—the two of them would stroll slowly hack to Parks Building, arm in arm, stop- Ping to exclaim over hats and dress- es and furbelows in the shop win- dows. Emmy enjoyed it all vastly—the big bright office with its green- shaded lights over the desk, the luhch hour with its stroll through [the noisy hustling crowds, the end of the afternoon when she stepped out into the world of cold blue twi- light flowering with lights. It was pleasant, too, a race for a JUST KIDS ,’1OSWALD )STERBING - | 6T UPY ou huYTL_E RAGAMUFEING | | KIT 1S COMPLETE NITHOUT ONE OF HESE HELMET FLASHES, MAW// 5= T WVE YOU ASTVE NEVER LOVED BEFORE street car and go home to kidney pie or an old English dish that Mrs. Milburn called “baked faggots.” Sometimes, toward the end of the week, there would be nothing but baked hash—a great deal of potato, which is cheap, and very little meat, which is expensive, “We're going to have ‘potato puff’ tonight,” Mrs. Milburn would say, setting it on the table with an air of elqgance. But it wasn't *potato puff.”” It was just plain hash, even if 1t was seasoned to the queen's taste. Every night of late she had gone to Prospect street to sit with Grand- mother Pentland for an hour or so. Robb, who was like a son to her, took her there and went to bring her home an hour or so later. She worried constantly about Grandmother Pentland. *“She's no more like the woman'she was three | months ago than I'm like Mrs. | Erainard,” she told Emmy one night | when she came home. Mrs. Brainard ; was an enormous woman with arms like a blacksmith and a face like a large round cooky with two black | eyes for raisina. | Emmy was standing before Qhei wavy old mirror of her dresser, rub- | bing cold cream into her flawless skin with its apricot flush along the cheek. Her gray eyes were like ice between their heavy fringes. “I just can't feel so terribly sorry for her. Mother,” she said. "I know she’s grieving about Uncle Bill's dy- {ing and about Marianna's running away from her. But trouble can’t be so awfully hard to bear in the middle of a great big house with an automobile in the backward and two or three servants at your beck and call.” “And that's another thing—Roset- ta and Matthew are going to leave her on the fifteenth. They've saved a lot of mohey all these years, and now they want to go back to San Antonio and settle down where it's warm and comfgrtably”’ Mrs. Mil- burn went on. “Rosetla’s had what she calls ‘the misery’ In her back all winter. . . . I'm sure I don’t know what your grandmother will do without the two of them. They've been with her since I was a little girl.” Emmy shrugged her shoulders under her pink flannel gown. “She can hire some more servants, Jjust | the way Harbison Brothers hired me,” she said. “She has plenty of money. You should worry about her!” (TO BE CONTINUED) LE WITT SPENT $810.48 Democratic Candidate for Secretary of State Files Report of Campaign Expenses—Walcott Spent $3,063. 1 George LeWitt, candidate for sec- retary of state on the democratic ticket, spent $810.48 in his unsuc- cessful campaign for state office, his report filed at the state capitol shows. Of this amount, $400 repre- sents a contribution to the state cen- tral comimttee and $100 was given toward local election expenses. Frederic C. Walcott, elected to the United States senate, spent $3,- 063, of which $3,000 was a donation to the state campaign. Helen Hart- ley Jenkins of Norfolk, a republican presidential elector, contributed $5,- 000 to the state campaign, she re- ported. MOTOR DESIGNER LOOKS T0 FUTURE Wants Diesel Engine for Light, Cheap Planes Detroit, Nov. 17 (P —Airplanes will be as thick as automobiles and as popularly accepted as an import- ant means of transportation, wheth- er for business or pleasure, just as soon as a reliable, light weight, and relatively cheap airplane engine is designed. That is the opinion of Capt. L. M. Woolson, rescarch engineer for the Packard motor company and de- signer of a long line of engines for airplanes, automobiles and speed- boats. His new Diesel type engine, which has been called an important advance in the develgpment of en- gines for commercial aircraft, still [ remains cloaked in the utmost secrecy, with its designer willing to speak of it” only in general terms. “I believe that if we had today an airplane engine pound per horsepower, which would be capable of running 1,000 hours without a stop and which could be sold for about $10 per horsepower, the airplane business would rival and soon out-strip the automobile in- dustry,” Mr. Woolson says. “The present high physical re- quirements, said to be necessary be- fore & man may become a capable pilot, will be looked upon within a fewyears as out-of-date. Any man who can run an automobile today will be capable of becoming a pilot. A quarter century ago, medical ex- perts said that man would never be able to adjust his physical mechanism to such a degree that he might drive an automobile 50 miles an hour. The present requirements for airplane pilots will seem just as funny within a very few years.” Captain Woolson is more than a “ground expert,” having flown air. planes in connection with engine test work for about 500 hours, and is thoroughly convinced that all technical men who have anything to do with designing airplanes should be pilots. Captair Woolson often takes up new engines on their initial trial flights, when such test work is con- sidered highly dangerous, he insists that it is an important part of his work. He became a pilot after he had achieved considerable prominence as a builder of aircraft engines, having been in charge of the army's air- craft engineering activities at Me- Cook field during the world war. He designed the engines which propelled the {ll-fated Shenandoah, the world record speedboat, Miss America VII, 2 long line of navy seaplane and afrplane motors, and has as his latest “pet” achievement the first Diesel type aircraft engine to be flown in an airplane.
