CHAPTER A
We've been waiting, too Madame
Leclercl But we must get together.
You had better come right over
here ut oncel Grab q taxi and make
1t snappy." ordered Rex ballard.
She made 1t snappy. That was, In
fact, the order she gave the taxi
driver. He made tie run from 47th
street and Broadway to the Gram
ercy Park House in double quick
time. Just before she arrived and
during an animated discussion on
the probability OF this and the pos
sibility Of that a horrifying thought
suddenly struck Pat. What II Max
well, or one OF his hirelings had
seen the departure Of Margery and
herself from the Lynne home with
out Jimmy?
"Oh!" she gasped. The exclama-
ton drew the. attention of the 9TH
ers who stared at her wonderingly.
JIMMY" she gulped, her lips
white with the sudden fearsome
possibility that had occurred to her
as to what might have happened
in the two and a half hours since
they had ledt him. Her fear-shot eyes
caught sight Of the telephone. Mar
gerry noted the glance and inter-
preted instantly the dread thought
that had partially paralyzed the
other girls actions.
She fairly tore across the room
to the table. grabbed up the tele-
phone and gave the number Of her
own home. The three men by this
time had graSped the meaning OF
the sudden interruption to the talk
and stood waiting. their eyes as
well as Pats riveted on Margery
who also waited, tense. rigid.
Then it came, the signal sputter
followed by a voice, that Of Aunt
Lottie. calm and clear as usual
Margery's rigidity vanished. But
her voice shook as she spoke.
Tell me quick. Aunt Lottie-is
Jimmy where you can see him right
now? You know we told you--"
"Jimm-As sitting right here in the
room playing with his fingers, Just
as he has been doing ever since you
left the houSei" came the impatient

all you wanted to know2"
Yes, yes, Aunty dear!" Margery
answered in a voice that still trem-
bled q little in the aftermath OF re-
lief. But we just received one piece
Of bad news and 1t occurred TO Pat
that we might have another await
ing us. Thank the Lord he's safe.
Just do as we told you, dear
don't let a soul into the house I'M
less you know who it's and don't
let Jimmy even leave the rooml
That's ALL"
She placed the telephone back on
the table. Then she turned slowly,
looking at Pat and then at the
others.
THAT should be a warning TO usi'
she said ominously. We've had
proof enough, the Lord knows, OF

The Valley and immigration

If nothing more is done to help the immigration
and labor situation in the Valley. it can be said
t~ruthfully that much good has alseady been accom-
plished.
Fortunately. the work is just being launched on
o systematic basis, and much greater benefits may
be expected.
But the work already done, and mainly by a few
people. 1t has brought attention to the subject.
which in itself has helped. 1t has brought a closer
relation between the American and the Mexican
people living along the border. Americans who have
lived here for years, and who have seldom talked to
q Mexican in the course of business, have become
closely acquainted with some Of the Valleys citi-
zens who are Of Mexican extraction.
When the two peoples come to know one another
more closely. the misunderstanding between them
will vanish.
There has been a direct result toward accomplish
Ing the goal that the Valley seeks-in cutting down
Expectations OF Mexicans.
At the time Co. Sam Robertson, fighting Valley
pioneer who has had the courage and the willingness
10 stand up and battle the world in defense Of his
Did Mexican friends, and a few others started the &C
INVITES against deportations there was occasion for
Immediate action.
Thousands of Mexicans were leaving voluntarily,
scared half out Of their wits by distorted reports of
Imprisonment. mistreatment and ultimate deporta-
tion under the new immigration laws.
After the first few meetings in the Valley a sud-
den change in the situation resulted.
The Mexican people here began to have more con-
fidence. They Gained their fears, and decided TO
stay. since they had some friends among the Ameri-
cans.
Now the deportations are being made at a much
reduced rate, we are informed.
The question is by no means settled. Valley people
still have a fight ahead Of them to attempt to prevent
passage Of legislation which would cut down Next
can immigration to practically nothing
No less an authority than J. T. Canales Of Browns
vile says such a law would not check the tide Of
Mexicans coming north. but would merely divert the
tide from the farms to the federal prisons. which
would have to be considerably enlarged.
II there is anything we have enough OF in this
country now it is laws which can not be enforced.
1t will do no harm to raise a vigorous protest against
the passage of one more such law.

Take a deep breath, girls. and be as composed as
possible while you hear the latest news? Don't get ex-
cited! Lissen: Paris has come out for skirts with
bathing suitsl
Just when the daughters of our very best people
had become accustomed TO ~parading up and down

a high collar and one OF those big straw beach hats
you see in the family album when you turn to the
picture OF Aunt Arabella and Uncle Jim snapped with
Cousin Minnie and the pug dog at Glen Island the
summer before they blew UP the Maine.
It will mean a return to the days when It took
weeks for a nice girl to recover from the humiliation
she suffered when a male person saw her on the
bathing beach with a run In her stocking.
Or when young Otis Presbury noticed as she came
out Of the water that a half inch of bare flesh showed
between the tops of her stockings and her boomers.
Oops, my dearsl

There are limits to what American womanhood will
endure.

SATURN'S STORY TOLD BY A
SPECTOGRAM
NV Arthur DeV. Carnenter

BY Arthur Dew. Carpenter
The spectroscopic photograph OF
the ball and rings OF Saturn tells
an interesting story. The east half
Of the planet and rings show YER
teal lines shifted toward the left
or violet, as compared with a stat
ionary spectrum, because they are
rotating toward you, while the west
half, because away from you, are
shifted toward the red or right.
Then because the earth was ap-
preaching Saturn at the time. the
lines Of the east half ire still more
intensely shifted toward the violet.
The lines Of the inner edge Of the
ring are displaced more than those
of the outer edge, showing the in
ner part Of the ring Is rotating
more rapidly than the outer.
