81 was trying to arrange about
bonds" said Hunche.
well, you amt gonna arrange
about bonds" said Beeham. You're
under arrest, too
The patrol wagon clattered nOisily
up to the corner. Beeham piled his
three prisoners, Harris, Cybul and
Hunche into the wagon and climbed
in after them. The wagon started
up again.
Hey" shrined some one from the
crowd. Are you gonna leave this
boy here to die?"
Gronow, on the sidewalk, mOaned.
Beeham stuck his head out the
patrol.
"Shut up" he said. 'The boys all
right The ambulance'u be here for
him"
The boy lay on the sidewalk until
the ambulance rolled up. He was
taken in that to the County Hospital.
No one thought to notify his moth
er what had happened to him. The
boy is the idol of her heart. He has
been her sole support. He never
stayed out even late at night before.
All Saturday night the mother
walked the streets near her home,
looking for her boy, weeping, fear
ing dreadful things.
In the morning the neighbOrs came
upon her, haggard and worn, crying
Historically for her boy. So they told
her what had happened.
The shock came near to killing
her.
Luckily GTOnOw's wound was not
as serious as it might have been. The
bullet had pierced the fieshy part of
the leg. While the boy had lost a lot
of blood, no serious after-effects
were likely.
The hospital surgeons extracted
the bullet. GrOnOw is expected to be

Captain Stephen J. Healy of the
West Chicago avenue police station
was asked about this.
"Aw," he said, "Beeham's all right.
He couldn't help this. He was going
along, just firing in the air, you know,
to make the boys stop"
eff he was firing in the air how
did the bullet wander into GrOnow's
leg?" asked the reporter.
We'll" said Healy, staring the re-
porter straight in the eye. "He Slip
ped and fell you know"
81 didn't know" said the reporter.
mo one told me about that"
''Wen, that's the way it was" said
Healy. ''Beeham was firm in the air,
an he slipped an fell, an that of
course dee-fected the muzzle of his
gun an instead of the bullet goin'
up in the air it went horizontally, an
GrOnOw happened to be in the way
an it struck him in the leg"
81 see" said the reporter, and was
silent.
Mice weather, isn't it?" said
Healy.
Kinda hot" said the reporter,
"say, Captain, do you think Beeham's
a very safe man to have running
around if he does that way? He
might get into the habit of slipping
an falling when he's firing in the air,
you know, and there's no saying
what might happen"
'Beeham's all right said Healy,
sOlemnly.
YES" said the reporter. But
don't you think it would be a good
idea to fix it so he wouldn't have a
loaded gun in his kick all the timer"
'Beeham's all right" said HeaIy.

The first thing l knew the room was

Helen's class was coming up the
stairs. Well, ! knew her teacher,
though I never pretended, and then,
and then-though 1 never lifted my
eyes from the pail, saw Helen, neat

Faith, her clothes were "a credit to
her two sisters, if l do say it. Wan
hundred girls stood around the hall
Just waiting. Then the principal
says, Miss Delehanty,' and out she
steps easy, and steady. She has a
lady's walk, has my Helen. My eyes
was on the level with the edge of her
petticoats ruffles that l gored
with my own hands-but l never
looked up.
Will you take these, Miss Dele

own ist?' -, ... ~
Yes, SIR says my Helen, quiet
and polite, and next minute l knew
she seen me.
Why, dearie?' she cries, like she
was took back, and seeing there was
no help for it, says, How do you do,
Miss and made to go on with my
work. For a minute she looked sur
prised like, then she gave little
laugh and I knew all was over. l
never looked up, hoping my actions
would warn her. But it done no
good.
Mother, dear she says before
them all, and the other girls and the
teachers. Mother, dear, are you go

own daughter, just because she's at
school?.'

'sThat should live to see the day."
groaned Mrs. Delehanty, that 1
should live to see the day when child
of mine would do the like of that to
mew
She sat by the handicapped table
in her front room, her toil-worn
hands still wrinkled from hot suds
(Which one of the girls was it?"
was inquired. .....
Helen, of course" sighed Mrs.
Delehanty, though for fear to tell a
lie, there's not one of the four but
would have done the same! More's
the pity!
"You see, Mr.. Higgins, him that is
head janitor at the high school, al
ways gives me the extras to do there.
The pay is good, and the work is
easy-just busting and like of that.
But never said word of the chance
at home. The girls don't want me
working out They say I'm too old,
an I've done my share; and that it's
for them to keep the house now.
Did you ever hear the like?
But they never noticed me slip
ping away-to church, told them,
God forgive me, the pair of them be-
ing so busy making new dress for
Helen. My Helen's in the high school,
and if God is good, and her health
holds out, she's going to be a teacher
When all was ready at the school
house Mr.. Higgins wanted the pic
lures cleaned 4 wish you to do it.
he says. 4 can trust you to be care
full. Thank you for that word, says
l, I'll be back the first thing in the
morning. They'll be clean when
school opens
But the girls was late getting off,
and couldn't slip away. And the
