Honey Lou Huntley is private sec retary to old Grumpy" Wallack, head of the Wallack Fabric Mills.
 Grumpy" hired Honey Lou not only because she is quick and clever, but because she is good tempered and sweet. He likes hav- | ing her around. So does everyone else at the mills, from the office vamp. Ann Ludlow, to Joe Meadows the shipping clerk. But Honey Lou is afraid of Joe Meadows, without quite knowing why.
 One afternoon Honey Lou meets Jack Wallack, "Grumpy's" son and heir. She falls in love with him, secretly and violently, and he with her. But when he drives Honey Lou home and kisses her she slaps his face. Later he comes to her home, and apologies.
 Home" to Honey Lou is the lit tie flat where she lives with her old fashioned mother and her half sister, Margret Moody. The next day young Wallack starts work at the mills. Ann Lud- low tells Honey Lou he is there to learn the business, so he can take it over when his father retires. He comes to Honey Lou late in the afternoon. in dirty overalls, and asks her to meet him at the corner, and drive home with him. She re- fuses to meet on the street corner. and that night when she leaves the office she finds him waiting for her outside. He is talking to a beauti- full blond girl who is sitting in a closed automobile that is drawn up 10 the curb. Honey Lou wonders who the girl is, and what she is doing there at that hour. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
 CHAPTER V Honey Lou could see that the other girls eyes never left her as she crossed the muddy side walk to Jack Wallack's side.
 Well, here I am.' she said look ing up at him and laughing a lit- tie breathlessy.
 "Yes, and ten minutes late, too," he added. His quick smile flashed out as he took her by the arm and gave her a shake.
 Angela" he turned toward the girl who silently watched them from the window of her car, T want you 10 know Miss Honey Lou Huntley, who is my dads special guardian angel down here at the mills"
 He looked from one to the other of the two bright faces. Miss Allen is great friend of my dads, too," he explained 10 Honey Lou. "she often comes down here to get him and take him home" Honey Lou racked her brains. But for the life of her she could not remember ever having seen this beautiful smiling person be- | fore, in all the six months she had worked for Grumpy"
 Are you sure she often comes down here? ?" she asked Jack when they were in his car and were driv- ing down between the lamp posts of Exchange street. She's so beautiful that I'd surely remember her, if I'd ever seen her before. She's the loveiest-looking thing l ever laid my lamps on."
 Isn't she?" Jack agreed with enthusiasm, and hot little pang of jealousy shot through Honey Lou's heart.
 She looked at him sharply, Just how well did he know this Angela Allen, with her saints face and her fashion plate clothes? Just how much did she attract him, Honey Lou wondered.
 And while she was wondering, Jack Wallack answered the unspok- en questions that poured into her mind like water through a flood gate.
 My dad always calls Angela Angel" he said, as the car turned into Chester row with its blank looking buildings, all shut up for the night.
 "Is she as good as all that?" asked Honey Lou. She gave him a quick sidewise look and saw that he was nodding his head. "She surely is," he answered seriously. "She spends most Of her time doing nice things for | people who need to have nice things done for them. Goes down to Holy Cross hospital once a week | 10 tell stories 10 the sick little l kids there and all that sort of thing, you know"
 Holy Cross hospital" Honey Lou repeated, "why, that's where Margret, my half-sister, works. l Sh9's in the office there" She broke off suddenly and gave a soft, husky little laugh.
 Isn't it the funniest thing" she asked. turning her eager face up to his in the darkness, we don't know single thing about each
 other, do we? You and I? But here We are riding along together as If we were the best friends in the world. I wonder what your Miss Allen thought tonight when she saw me get into this car with you"
 Nothing at all, probably" the man at her side said, but if she did think anything of it, it was sure to be something pretty nice. An gela never had an unkind thought about anybody in her life. She's
 just plain good, through and through. The Head says that"
 "Who's. The Head for goodness sake?" Honey Lou asked.
 My mother" He laughed. My dad and I always call her that He

 mills, but at home it's my mother
