After finding the warm haystack
 Jim felt that he was safe for While 1 at least and fell asleep, hoping that 1 Tom would try to come out of the 1 barn and Shep would take after him 1 for he still believed Tom was in the l barn, either looking for a pitchfork or | perhaps asleep in the haymow. Jim l must have slept about an hour when 1 he awoke. feeling quite refreshed and well dried. As he lay there, looking out of the little hole he had crawIed | through, wond ering what had become of Tim and if he would ever find Billy and Bettina. he was startled to hear a noise like som snoring not three feet from him. The sound seemed to come from the inside of the straw stack.

I'll stick my head out and see who or whats maxim that noise Though he looked high and low, up and down. he could see no person or animal. Still the snoring went on. in terspersed with 8 sigh or groan as if the sleeper was having bad dreams.

 He had not pulled out more than an armful of straw when his hand struck something more soft than straw. He began to pull it. which brought forth a scream of pain, and he discovered he had a handful of someone's hair. The next handful of straw revealed a face peering at him through the opening and whose should it be but Toms! They were both so surprised at seeing each other there that they said nothing for a few minutes but just stared at one another, for each had thought the other miles away, and deep in their hearts they hoped never to lay eyes on one another again. But fate seemed to decide otherwise and kept these two together in spite of them selves.
 As the two kidnapers lay concealed in the stack, talking over their last experience and wondering in which direction to go to look for Billy and Bettina, they heard footsteps ap- preaching the stack. They could not make out at first whether they were footsteps of people or animals, for there seemed to be a, soft, padded step and a. hard. ringing one.

 In a second around the straw stack came Billy, Betttna, Stubby and But ton, chatting together pleasantly, as only four jolly, good companions can do.

DINNER STORIES

There is certain physician re- puted to be the best of his kind in New York. who is known also for his terse manner A woman, apparent ly as trite as himself, came to see him in regard to an infected hand. She answered his questions alrnos in monosyllables, scarcely fIinched at his treatment and left as quietly she came. She obeyed instructions explicitely, appeared promptly for each treatment, put forth her hand and uttered no comments Finally the hand was healed, and she was told 1t would not be necessary for her to come again. She merely asked la conically:
 How much do I owe you?'' Not a cent replied the doctor.

In justice to Babe Ruth, we'll ad- init that Miller batted for the Bib Bambinos in the days when Babe was still rated as a pitcher and his home run bump hadn't been developed. It occurred when Miller was tried out by the Red Sox in 1918. He stuck with the Sox long enough to share in the worlds series dough.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-03-31

Miller was obtained from Oakland in the Coast league by the Cubs in 1920, but the deal was never com pleted. The Brooklyn Dodgers also had a string on Hack g. couple of times, but couldn't find room for him.

Miller.-is booked top lay left field regularly with Bill Ki1lefers revamp- ed Cubs this year. He showed last year that he is ripe for a regular berth.

AT THE ORPHEUM

What becomes OF college girls2
1t depends in what part of the
country the question is asked fEs
what the answer will be. If the
question were asked to an inoutring
reporter in Hollywood the reply
would probaly be. then try for the
movies.
There are certainly a large num-
Der Of college graduates anon the
girls working in the motion picture
studios of the west. In the Alice
Calhoun production, "A Girls De-
sire" all of the girls used in the
boarding school Genes are college
graduates.
Most OF these girls took academic
courses. But one studied to become
a physician. another took UP dentis-
try and a third had ambitions to be-
come a lawyer. Whatever caused
them to go off at a tangent and be-
come picture actresses is an un-
known quantity. The lure Of the
screen vas stronger than the call
OF a profession, evidently, for the
girls seem perfectly contented with
their art and have no regrets for
their choice.
What IS true Of the girls Is also
true of boys. Around a studio may
pc found graduates from most of the
principal colleges OF the country.
In a few years 1t may be necessary
to go to college to enter the film in
dustry as it is to become a lawyer,
doctor or other profession.
