from being unhappy about myself to

sadly. 1--WE had to put in all my time

She looked so frail, so frightened,
that Helen's heart went out to her.
IF there's anything can ever do
for you, Doris" she promised. II will.
You'll let me know, won't you?"

accepted gratefully.

ing high. "And-it may be sooner than
you think, Helen. And I'll love to ar
range to have Patricia play with little
Lucy I'll see you tonight"
With the last words she froze into
her shynesS again, but Helen kissed her
warmly, and the two girls parted, Helen
to follow Patricia into the grounds. Tor
those last words of the child's still rang

for digging a hole sounded as If she

I do you love her more than you do
me?" Patricia demanded.
Helen laughed, answering the child
as she always did, as If she were
grown up.
That's a very embarrassing personal
question. Not the kind people ever

no use asking them" she assured Pa

room with the late Fall sunshine about

and Patricia looked at her in admira-
ton, warmed by the sudden vibration
of color and happiness she gave out,
golden and rose and strongly alive.
Doris, weaker and more timid, looked
at her almost with awe. Little Pa
tricia, herself a force, threw herself
against Helen again, hugging her hard.
"Oh. I love you, Helen! 1 do love
you'll What makes people love you SOP"
She spoke with an odd. unchildlike
intensity. Helen was little troubled.
She answered her lightly.
THE reason the lamb loved Mary so,
darling. Remember 'Mary's Little
Lamb that funny old poem your cou-
sin Ada was telling you the other after

She was out, a graceful flash of yell
low and brown, before Doris could do
more than stare at her.
She's a queer child she said, as
people inevitably said about Patricia.
She's strange, but she's a wonder
full one" Helen defended her "She has
an amazing mind. She had an odd up

favor, Doris-let me take her over to

simply won't. Lucy being mer-

the picture, she'll respect her. love
Patricia, but she's a little pirate. She
has to be awed a little. And Lucy hav-
ing to go home to bed early, of course,

doubtfully, having a child to take care
of, instead of being a secretary"

sentimental, Doris; but if 1 don't have

SCORES FIFTEENTH
STRAIGHT TURF WIN
Vanderpool, Undefeated, Ties Mark
made by Colin in 1906-07.
Leaves Sprint Class.
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, July 25.-His record I'M
marred by defeat, Mrs. M. P. Aliens
Vanderpool won his fifteenth consecu-
tive race today as he stepped out OF the
sprint class for the first time to win
the Greenfield Purse at Empire City.
The purse was only $1,000, but the
race proved the 3-year-old son Of
Campfire is something more than a
sprinter. The triumph also put Wander
pool on even terms with the famous
Colin. which won Is consecutive races
in 1906 and 1907. The American rec
ord of l8 straight victories is held by
Hindoo, made more than 40 years ago.
Despite the fact he was carrying III
pounds in his first race over the route,
Vanderpool was made the 1-to-3 ia
yorite. 1t took every ounce of his great
speed and gameness, however, to get
down in front of the Rancocas Stables
Arab. Only a nose separated the pair,
while Rocky News, which got away bad,
was just one-half length to the rear.
Vanderpools time for the mile and 20
yards was 1:4615, nearly four seconds
slower than the track record.
The victory of Vanderpool over
Swallowed the triumphs of T. M. CASH

Mrs. Moody Skillful as Ever
AS She Allows Mrs. Harper
Only One Game in Net Final

The Oakland players usually accu-
rate service was instantly killed by
Mrs. Moody's power and speed, and her
usually keen strokes were so badly
blunted by the fire that most of them
popped outside or crashed into the net.
During this flasco of a final, Mrs.
Harper was outpointed 54-26, earned
only five points to Is and had 80 errors
to Mrs. Moody's 20 in the l3-game
match.
The East got some satisfaction out
of the tournament which attracted 20
of the 80 women given ranking for
their 1880 play, when Virginia Hilleary,
Philadelphia. and Dorothy AndruS,
Stamford, Conn, put up a valiant
battle against Mrs. John Van Ryn,
the former Marjorie Gladman of Cali
fornia, and Josephine Cruickshank,
Stana Ana, Calf. and emerged with
a As, IL, 60 victory.
Miss Hilleary and Miss Andrus out
lasted their rivals in the long second
set, (which they gained by attacking
their backhands and forcing nets, espe-
cially by Mrs. Van Ryn, wife Of the
Davis Cup player.
TodayS victory was the fourth Mrs.
Moody has registered in the EseeX play,
probably the best women'S tournament
conducted this season. She retired a
bowl when she gained her third con-
secutive victory in 1928. She remained
out of the next two competitions, and
her one-sided win over Mrs. Harper
gave her leg on the current bowl.
In her overwhelming progress to the
last round, Mrs. Moody defeated Mrs.
Robert Morris, Boston; Margaret Blake,
Lenox; Mrs. Mary j. Lamme. New York;
Charlotte Miller, New York; Miss Hill

overcame Mary Greet. Kansas City;
