CHAPTER II
Why She Changed Her Name

Rhoda tried to tell herself she was
glad she had snubbed Martin Forbes.
She enjoyed, after fashion, the con-
seriousness of his glazing at her from
the edge of the dance floor, but when
she perceived that he was no longer
there and came to the conclusion that
he'd really abandoned her, she found
rather suddenly that she was tired of
the Alhambra for tonight and wanted
to go home. And although she main
tanned that Martins suspicious of Max
Lewis were wild nonsense. she was
rather glad that Leander Higgins Of
fered to take her home.
Their trip, mostly by trolley car,
was entirely without incident. Of
course it would be! Martin had made
up the whole thing out Of his own
head. She was as friendly as she
knew how to be to Leander all the
way to the studio door but at that
point she said good night to him firm
ly. 1t had been only by the exercising
Of good deal of resolution that she'd

And until Babe came home she wanted
to be let alone.
AS she glanced around the studio
after shutting the door on Leander
Higgins her eye fell on tonight's News

mate had left it. Was that advertise
ment really in the paper, or had Mar

glimpse of his name once in black
headlines in the newspaper. Her ia
ther had stopped being a professor at
the same time she'd stopped going to
school. He was at home all the time,
and for a while-though whether it
was days or weeks she couldn't re-
member-they'd made a sort of pre-
tense Of having school at home with
him for teacher. Interrupted harassed
days those were, with people coming
to see him and being sometimes told
that he was out, even when she knew
he wasn't; reporters and men with
battered-loOking cameras taking pic
tures-Of the house, when they couldn't
get anything else.
There were few days toward the
end, just before they left California
for good, when he had been away
from home all the time and she had
known, somehow, that the trial was
going on.
Also she had known before she saw
him on his return, though again the
source of her knowledge eluded her
memory, that the outcome of it had
been favorable to him, that he had
"got Off" She must be right about
that since she still so wildly remem-
bered her disappointment and per-
plexity, when she saw him again. over
the fact that there was nothing trium-
plant about him; that he had been, if
possible, whittier and more bitterly
silent than ever.
She'd hoped he would tell her what
the trial had been about. He had
never, even in after years, told her
that. Only once, that she knew of,
had his spirit flashed up.
This had happened when her Uncle
William-he must have been her dead
mothers brother; he couldn't have
been her father's-had come to see
them, after the trial and before they
started east. She couldn't remember
ever having seen him before, but she
did remember the falsely genial smile
with which he had reproached her for
having forgotten him.
ne Vi DtSu OH oSTc U her ever since.
Her father had not been afraid of
him. He'd sent her from the room on
Uncle Williams saying that her father
could probably guess what he'd come
to see him about. She'd obediently
gone, but only as far as her bedroom.
and the boom of the ogre's voice had
come through the thin walls all too
clearly. He'd come to try to make
her father give her away, for ever, to
him. He'd spoken of her, terrifyingly,
as "the child"! But her father, though
quiet and conciliatory at first, had
finally defied her uncle and told him
to go straight to HI!
She'd never heard him swear before
or since and she had thought that the
reason Of his asking her, after her
uncle had gone, whether she had
heard any of their talk. Anyhow, it
had been why she told him she had
not.
She hadn't understood much of II
at the time. beyond her uncle's asser-
ton that her father had disgraced
himself and wasn't a fit person TO
bring up child. She must, though,
have stored up good many uncom-
pretended phrases of that talk, or how
could she have been so sure, two or
three years later, when she read in
the newspaper of a sensational prose-
cution of another professor under the

He told her simply that there was good chance for Fran's re- covery in the mountains. When he had finished she said:
 "You must tell her not to worry about us. We'll manage somehow
 But she sat for long time look ing out of the window, her hands for once idle, as she recalled the Fran that had always loved life.
 Now that they nee d ed money more than ever, three of Aunt Ems pupils had gone to the country fo1 the summer vacation.
 Hallie was working these days with savage concentration; her eyelids little swollen as she pounded away on the typewriter late into the hot summer night.
 Look at this" she said, as Nora stopped in the store room.
 Hallie held out letter. q am a young girl of seven-
 teen. love man one year
 elder but he has not been true to me. I want to ask you shall forgive him or not?'
 She began to read the answer Tn peculiarly sardonic voice:
 Dear Child:
 T too have known the bitter
 ness of love rejected by a faith ful heart. But I want you to
 think first whether you shall
 hurt him. Think what a wo-
 mans heart can do, how 1t can
 forget. And take back your
 friend into your affections, re-
 membering that he too, dear,
 is human"
 Hallie groaned as she ended, Isn't that awful? I ask you, could any human being swallow that? But the woman who runs the col umn in the pulp paper magazine says that my stuff is so full of human interest,"
 When she went upsairs Nora found Fran packing.
 How splendid they are!'
 "Youre just beginning to see, Fran said looking up, and ended "Im going tomorrow. "Oh Fran!"
 q want to tell you, Nora-l've saved enough money to carry them until I get back. Don't look at me like that! I'm not going to die. l can't-don't you see" Fran chok- ed, flor I have to come back to the children.
 But if I shouldn't get better, you'll stand by them, won't you? Mother's' getting old and Hallie can't bear it alone"
 The tears streamed down Nora s cheeks. How could she promise? Yet not to was to cruelty Fran. Fran caught Morals hand and laid it against her hot cheek.
 Next morning Fergus took Fran to the station, carrying it off with such a casual air that they all played up to him.
 Have a good rest" Aunt Elm said. Don't think about us.'
 The taxi was waiting. Frances stopped to gather Dickie in her arms.
 "You'n come tonight?' Alice cried.
 Not tonight, Alice, but pretty soon. You'll be a good girl?
 Mud, are you ever coming back again?"
 of course she is," Aunt Elm said staunchly.
 Don't kiss me good-by, Nora, ' Fran said steadily. She looked back, smiling pitifully as they went down the steps. Fergus was waiting on the sidewalk.
 Dickie began to cry but Aunt Elm tickled him until he was chuckling again. The last Fran saw of her son was his waving hand and rosy, dimpled laughter.

Nora hated Fergus More as he stood there in his office judging her, without saying word. It was a great sacrifice he had asked of her, to assume the burden of the little household from which her coming marriage with Jon was to take her.
