For two hours after her huni-
lating experience in the spy
room" Of the Interstate Finance
Company, Crystal Hathaway
walked the streets of Stanton's
business district, blindly, airnless-
ly.
She was so Ill with anger and
shame that she could not think
coherently was entirely incapable
Of ling new r'00- '"' re fnd-
Ing of work.
And yet she had to work,
or starve, or-what was worse
be dependent upon her cousin
Bob's bounty. And she had
alienated both Bob and Faith by
insisting upon wearing the horrid
yellow silk dress.
Self-hatred flooded poor Crystal
in sickening waves. In all her life
she had never felt so like a crea-
ture at bay. Every person against
whom she bumped in her blind
fight up one street and down
another seemed lick a human wolf
swapping at her heels.
Wild plans for self-destruction
seethed through her tortured mind.
She was failure at everything she
attempted; no one loved her; no
one even kissed her, and all she
asked in life was to be loved.
! That terrible unseen man, spying
on her, grinning maliciously as he
watched her make up her face, ar
range her skirt enticingly to show
her knees. Oh, she would rather
die than look for another job.
"Yoo-hoo, Crystal" A gay, thrill
ing voice, emphasized by the honk
of a motor horn, cut across Crystals
Somehow she reached Tony's car,
got into the seat beside her churn,
even greeted her, before the storm
broke.
why, Crystal, darling, what in
the world is the matter?" Tony
marveled, as she shot her car
through an opening in the traffic.
Here. darling, take my hanky. Cry
lots, if you want to, then tell Tony.
Had lunch yet? . I thought not!
"You look haggard with hunger.
I'm supposed to be breaking bread
with Dick Talbot at the Randolph,
but I'd just as soon stand him up.
He's becoming a problem, you know
thinks he's engaged to me, and in
sists on broadcastihg the happy
news. Feeling better, honey? I
know a little tea room :"
Over sweetbread patties, which
might as we'll have been hamburger
steak for all Crystal knew or cared
at the moment, the story of Crys-
tails humiliation was told-almost
frankly.
No girl could have confessed the
very last detail of that agonizing
experience.
THAT awful old secretary, Miss
Manley, pretended that-that Mr..
Harvey had looked me over and
sized me up" Crystal told Tony,
whose blue diamond eyes were sat
isfyingly indignant.
| "It-it seems that Mr.. Harvey

But BERTHE Lou had done some

sary to spend long hour in the
stores that confronted the station
taking her time over her purchases
before she saw Rod come swinging
down the street in hurry to catch
his train to New York.

on Gamblers.

The board of public safety today
defied politicians who have threat
ened them with impeachment pro-
ceedingS in city council because of
the recent pofce drives upon gam
bling in indianapolis.
mo threats of impeachment from
any source will induce us to de-
viate one iota from our policy of
law enforcement" said a statement
issued by the board, consisting Of
President Fred Connell and Ira
Haymaker and Robert F. Miller.
Following the passage of the
resolution attempting to declare
Mayor L. Ert Slack out of Office by
the Republicans in the council, re-
ports that the council planned re-
prisals against other officials were
thick at city hall. The talk about
the board of safety got SO strong
that Council President Otis E. Bar
tholomew issued a statement,
printed elsewhere in this edition,
that gamblers had nothing to do
with the council action against
Slack.

RICHMOND, Va, Feb. 2.-Prohi-

Of New York were assailed by Will

nation in a speech to the Virginia
Anti-Saloon League here last night.
McAdoo predicted that an end
would be written to the Eighteenth

Attempt is being made to con-
vince the country that no matter if
