CHAPTER xI
Harriet Is Warned

rARRIET established herself

l. Il ton in the firm Of Harmon &
Graves. But from that very
how of Charles Harmon.
Before Grace Raymond had left
the two girls had stood facing each
other for moment.
II suppose you know you're aw-
fully good looking?". Grace said
after a moment appraisingly.
Harriet flushed. She hadn't even
thought about her looks for two
days. She was even unconscious Of
the clothes she wore, excepting for
the fact that they were dark and
inconspicuous.
Nonsense" she said lightly.
But you are, and you have that
softness about you that Is apt to be
dangerous in a business office. That
mouth of yours is too tender and
your skin so white and your lips
so red and those violet-coiored eyes

eyes of some man."
And what about your own looks?'
Harriet parried.
Grace shrugged her shoulders.
"'oh,. my, looks are all right, but
look out for myself"
And so can l."
Grace studied her for a long mo-
ment. WELL" she said finally,
there's no need of beating around
the bush. I brought this up for a
Charlie Harmon looked at you, and
I wanted you to be on guard"
Harriet's hand went out impulsive-
ly and touched Grace's. THANK you,"
she said softly. II understand" But
she had cause to remember this
talk with (Traoa fiOnnQ qftnr-
ward.
AS soon as Grace had left, Har-
riet went back to her desk in Mr..
Harmons office. A little later he
was transcribing the letters on her
typewriter when he went for lunch.
The moment she was alone Har-
riet flew across the room and took
the newspaper out of the waste
basket, where it had been thrown.
dailies, and on the front page there
was a typical heart-throb story
signed by a special writer. Across
the top in heavy black letters ran
the caption:
Underneath in smaller letters ran
"Did She Desert Her Husband, or
Is She a Thief's Accomplish"
There followed a column and a
haIf OF sentimental SluSn ABOUT the
wife of young Barry Neil. 1t told
nothing, it wasn't intended to. 1t
was written to start people to
thinking, to start controversy about
the woman in the case, and 1t filled
Harriet with disgust and dread.
There was nothing new about the
case itself, although there were
plenty Of intimations that the po-
lice were following new clues that
were sure to track down the wife.
The paper seemed confident that
Barry was guilty.
Harriet put the paper back in the
basket and went out for lunch. She
spent most of her lunch hour walk
ing in the sunshine, stopping. for
sandwich and a glass Of milk at
cheap restaurant nearby. Somehow
she did not feel nearly IS confident
as she had last night, and the
thought of Barry shut up in
gloomy cell away from the sun
shine and fresh air made her SICK
at heart.
When she returned to the office
she saw a group of the. girls, gath
cred around Lucy Pratts desk. She
was forced to pass Mr. Graves Of
flee in order to get to her own,
and one of the girls called to her
to come in. Harriet entered reluc-
family conscious of Lucy's unfriend-
ly eyes.

I am a lonely girl of nineteen com
ing to you for some Of your good ad-
vice. If you were going with a boy
steady and he would never take you
to the show or any place, and didn't
want you to go with any other, do
you think he really cares for me,
and would you go with otEer boys?
There Is another boy trying to break
us up. He is a real nice boy and will
take me any place I want to go.
Which one of the boys should I go
with? Is it any harm to go car rid
ing with boy after night? And is it
all right for two boys and two girls
to ride in a Ford roadster?
Thanking you in advance.
WICK.
It is absolutely wrong for you
to devote your whole time to a
young man who is selfish and
close to the extent he will not
make any effort to contribute to
your pleasure by an occasional
visit to a movie or a refreshing
glass Of ice cream soda-unless
he has told you he is unable to
furnish these diversions. If so,
he really has no right to expect
you to devote your time mostly
to him. Go with other young
men. I really think long auto
drives alone with a young man,
is imprudent with no evil inten-
ton, perhaps, but at the same
time it invites opportunity, and
creates ideas which would other
wise not be bred in the brain.
do think young girls and women,
by taking the rides, alone invite
familiarity and create trouble for
themselves. Youth Is very hard
to keep in check, and with no one
around to see or hear-danger
turks ahead-for the boy and
girl both. I can see no special
harm in four young people piling
close quarters, and not at all
restfu1.
I request little advice, but not
about love tangles or anything per-
my scenarios? Thanking you in ad-
vance, I am yours very truly,
