Son and Heir

at the golf club was to bFag about his baby, who was too youthful actually To ehum with his fathers companions. When baby is at that crumpled, red dish stage which indicates that its age Is still reckoning in days all that any father ever does is to brag at safe distance. He would be exceedingly bored by any closer companionship with his progeny
 This spring. however, Sallyer felt that Robert, Jr.. really was approach ing 8 grown-up stage. He could walk. He could make noises that sounded almost like words. He could smile in. telligentIy. Hence Sallyer felt that Robert, Jr, had developed into a son who was quite human being and en- tirely worthy of introduction into in. telligent circles.
 "Why not let me take the kid out 10 the club?" Salyer asked his wife on a recent Saturday afternoon. T want to show him to the fellows. Oh. of course he'll be good-and won't stay long. It'll give you a chance to get a little rest, too"
 'Tfs' perfectly crazy ideal" de- rlarad Sailyer's wife, What do they care about babies at golf club? They want 10 play golf!''
 .NI guess it won't hurt 'em to look at my son," declared Sallyer, fatu- oGsly They're always shouting about their kids. l want to show 'em real boy.''l fift .f sallyer and his son created all the Interest that Sallyer had hoped for. They arrived about 2 o'clock when the verandas were well filled and there was rush to see the baby. who was exceedingly sporty in his new spring clothes. The men shook hands with him grayely and he bore him self with equal gravity, greatly to his fathers delight, When the several women began to coo over him Sallyer withdrew 10 the company of the men and beamed
 Chief among the enthusiastic femi- nine admirers of Robert, Jr, was Miss Quigley. Sallyer grinned a bit when he observed her lift the baby upon her knee, for he felt that Miss Quig- ley was making a grand stand play and was not above getting solid even with the juvenile members of the Sall- yer family. IL was well known that she had her eye upon Sallyer's broth CT, Bob, Beyond the fact that she could play disgustingly good game of golf, Sallyer admitted that he couldn't object to Miss Quigley as a sisterin-law, though as a rule it did not do for a woman in family to outshine the men in any line. She doubtless was waiting for Bob now.
 Sallyer turned to greet, an acquain. tance. Five minutes later he was deep in discussion of the virtues of new ball Ten minutes later he had fu- riously accepted a challenge to a game to prove his contention. Fifteen minutes later he was teeing off at the first hole with energy and absorption
 It was a hotly contested game. At Its finish Sallyer and his opponent found their argument still undecided, so they played another round. It was a glorious afternoon and they idled over the course. When I can drink In air Eke this" Sallyer said every little while, ''it makes me feel that life is really worth living"
 After he had finished playing SaIl- yer and a group of men strolled into a clump of apple trees and smoked and then simultaneously sighed and arose, for they must catch the $50 train. Beaming, flushed with exercise and general happiness, Saryer tramp ed into the clubhouse. As he passed the big living room door shrill, angry yells smOte his ear. SomethingAat the back Of his brain was disturbed, but not til he had walked straight by little group in the window did some dim thought put the brakes on Sall- yaT's feet.
 He blinked a moment at the tableau of Miss Quigiey with Robert. Jr, in her arms before he comprehended Miss Quigley was flushed. disheveled. aWry, angry Robert, Jr., struggling in her grasp, was furious. An unpreju- 1ic1d person might have said that at one particularly vicious yell of Robert JI.'5, NiEs Quigley shook him.
 Great snakes!" gasped SaIlyer as be comprenended. 'I forgot-I forgot all about his being herel"
 T should think you had." Miss Quigiey assured him. He seems a geTy active child. I never worked so hard iU my life as have since 2 o'clock. And your wife has telephoned dsC times for youi"
 She added this as though rejoicsd to know that retribution awaited sall- yer at the other end of the line.
 Say SaHyer begged. I'm scared. Come on home with me and help tenn per the atmosphere when I arrive I fancy Bob will drop in for dinner, since be isn't out herei"
