and squeezed her hand tenderly.
"You mustn't talk that way,
Sheila," he said. Its all going to
come out right and Mercy and ]
are going to help all we can. Mercy

Sheila's eyes were filled with tears
as she went to Mercy with her arms
outstretched. They chung to each

Sheila to chair and sank down
beside her.

got caught in my own trap.
81 thought all I wanted was
Andys money, but when Andy told
me his money was all gone, I found
out than Andy meant more to me
than all the money in the world"
Then she poured into Sheila's ears
the whole story. They talked to-
gether for long time. Sheila was
distressed to learn that Andy's for
tune had vanished.
For the time her own troubles
we're forgotten. They were brought
back to her poignantly as she was
preparing to leave. She was stand
ing near Andy. She picked up her
driving gloves from a table beside
his chair. Andy's eyes followed the
movement of her hands.
"Sheila!" he exclaimed, Where is
your engagement ring?"
She dropped the gloves. Her face
paled.
"I-I-that's all overt couldn't

erything is so different now"
Nonsense, Sheila," nothing is

the same girl you always were-you

Sheila did not reply. She again
took up her gloves and her eyes fell
upon a small, neatly wrapped pack

She mechanically read the address
and seized upon the opportunity tt

CuAPTFR THIRTY

THESE were dark days for Sheila,
i Mrs. Hendricks, the housekeep-
err, had returned, and the household
machinery was running smoothly.
Outwardly, nothing had changed,
but to Sheila, the world was turned
upside down. She felt herself alien
to all around her.
Smedley had called at the house
and telephoned frantically, but she
refused to see or talk TO him. To
Edna and her other friends, she
pleaded illness and kept almost con-
stantly to her room.
WILDER saw her only at meals,
but an insurmountable wall seemed
to have arisen between them. Since
the one painful interview following
Andy's visit, both instinctively had
avoided mention of the subject
uppermost in their minds. Sheila
was not satisfied with the fragment
tary disclosures made by WILDER,
but she shrunk from further revela-
ton. WILDER, though torn with
anxiety, wisely awaited better
time.
Then came the news Of Andy's
accident. It was a countCIShock to
Sheila and turned her mind from
herself. Instantly the old tie of
affection for her cousin asserted
itself.
She had not resented his dis
closure of her birth Secret-Wi,bers
confirmation of it had erased her
first anger. She, inquired eagerly
as to Andy's condition and would
have gone to him at once. but was
restrained by WILDER, who advised
her to wait until he had prepared
the way.
"a nurSe?- Sheila exclaimed,
when WILDER had reported on his
visit to Andy'S apartment.
Yes, a very capable young wom-
an" WILDER replied, "a Miss River
ton. 1 believe"
Miss Riverton!"
Yes, I think that was the name
Why. do you know her?"
Sheila bit her lip nervously. II

the room.

Suddenly her face burned. Her

ewing to the low price of sugar, is
borne by the workers and small
peasants. The overproduction on
the world market and the competi-
ton between the Cuban cane and
the beet sugar interests of the u. S.
and the cane sugar interests of
Hawaii and the PHILIPPINES, is "rem-
edied" by Machado's following
policy dictated by the American
owners of sugar lands of Cuba. who
have invested $700,000,0CO therein,
of reducing the area planted to
sugar, but not of the Americans.
Only the small peasants are pro-
scribed to plant sugar cane, and
these peasants, together with the
workers in the fields and mills, are
reduced to the utmost misery and
are actually perishing of hunger
and want while the interests of the
Yankee planters are protected by
the Machado government. Under
this power of Yankee imperialism,
these Cuban masses suffer the ex-
tremest agony of life, and when
they protest they are assassinated!

ARRESTS
50 COMMUNISTS
Jailed at Liebknecht-

BERLIN, Jan. 13.-Police, under
the direction of the social-democrat
police chief Vorgiebel, arrested 38
Communists today during the OBJ
servance of the tenth anniversary of
the assassination of the German
revolutionary leaders, Karl Lieb-
knecht and Rosa Luxembourg.
When masses of workers collected
outside the police station demanding
the release of their comrades, the
police were compelled to set them
free
The memorial was observed by
thousands of Berlin workers. Masses
of workers filed past the graves of
Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxem-
burg, founders of the Spartacus
League and leaders of the revolution
against the bourgeois democracy of
the social-democrats who were
cruelty assassinated by Pabst and
other hirelings of the social-demo-
crat Scheidemann-Ebert government
on the night of January 18th in the
west end of Berlin.
The Red Front Fighters, founded
by Liebknecht and Luxembourg, one
of the first editors of the Communist
newspaper "Rote Fahne," stood at
attention before the graves.
The Communist speakers pointed
out the treachery of the social
democrats during the revolution,
showed how their new militarism
under the war minister Noske
rallied about itself all the reaction
airy elements to put down the revolu-
ton of the workers and made clear
the equally treacherous role of the
socialists" today.
