that he was anxious for the meeting.

he was passing and it was easier to
stop in than to come back. Tommy.
having too much money and leisure
had the habit Of doing the easiest
thing.
While he sulked he unused: 81 wish
to thunder the family would let me
alone. I'm no baby! I don't want to
get married, and Aunt Elizabeth can
trot her candidate homo again, the one
she is to bring along to luncheon.
Say!" He turned around and looked
after q girl who had entered the shop,
leaving q trail of exquisiteness behind
her as she passed. That's just the
prettiest girl I ever saw in my life!
Wonder II know her. Nod have
remembered her If did. may as
well wait inside, guess" And Tommy
sauntered In.
Suddenly he conceived the brightest
idea Of his life. A small room at the
back of the shop, with its black velvet
topped tables and chairs for custom
ers, would make q splendid setting
for the little drama he was arranging.
Anyone there could easily be seen by
persons entering the store.
A chime clock struck the quarter
hour. Fifteen minutes until his aunt
was due with her protegee!
The girl turned away from a counter
and found good-looking young man
in her path. He lifted his hat AM
bowed She returned his bow coolly.
81 beg your pardon; may I speak
to you for minute?" asked Tom.
The girl hesitated and ran her eye
rapidly over his clothes from shoes to
collar, and then for an instant studied
his face Reassured, she smiled and
nodded. why, yes. guess you may.
But don't believe know you"
That's the trouble. You don't.
Won't you sit in the next room with
me while tell you something. It is
more comfortable and a better place
to talk"
They sat down at the little table and
Tom pitched in with a queer feeling
that he was getting in over his head
do you think you could be engaged
to me for five or ten minutes?"
He was very red. The girl looked
serious in spite of CLEAN in her eyes
"Is it as bad as that?"
Indeed it is. I'm in for bad day

Exactly! II you'll do 1t it will help
me out of a deuce of a mess. I'll get

your hand well up so 1t can plainly
be seen by anyone entering the store,
and-and-"
II see. Very well, then. I'll do my
best to help you out"
The clock chimed the halfhour and
his aunt came into the store-alone.
Tom pretended not to see, but he knew
that his aunt was eying him and his
companion through her lorgnon.
A little later she left the store, to
Toms relief. without speaking to him.
The plan had worked beautifully!

land at the helm, and the rejuvenated
Yankees with Wild Bill Donovan
welding the baton. And with Eddie
Collins cavorting around second base
for the Sox and one of the best hurl
ing corps in the league, those same
Sox begin to stack up pretty large
in the American league race.
. There are those, and there are
many Of them, who think Connie
Mack has "shot his wad," that the
elongated tactician will not be able
to pull his disabled machine home in
front. His pitching staff is badly
bent with the absence of Bender and
Plank and his infeld cannot boast
that it is of the 100000 variety now
that with Eddie Collins is among the
missing.
Then the Boston Red Sox are to be
considered Boston, it will be remem-
bered, made great squirt towards the
close of last season and all but over
took the flying Mackmen. And
they're going right back into the
race with the same players and lot
of additional reserve strength.
Lastly, but not least, there are the
Yanks. They seem to have emerged
from an epidemic of managers and
director-control and if Wild Bill Will
liam puts the pep into his playing
season that he has exhibited since
signing his contract, the Highlanders
must be considered in the race.
