Here's a Black-eyed Maryland Farm Girl
Who Says Life Owes Her Something. She
Starts Out to Get 1t by Learning How to
run" a Typewriter. Then things happen.

erty from the worn shoulders of
her mother and her father? No,
she suddenly discovered, she had
not. All these things which had
been taught her, which she had
learned with such pathetic eager
ness-hiStory, arithmetic, geography,
Latin-of what earthly use were
they to ner now?
The more she contemplated the
matter of her future. the irmer
became her conviction that she
must find some way to cross the un-
kind fate which seemed to have
logged the footsteps of those about
her. She, if not they, would make
something of herself.
Yet what was there that she
could do? Searching about for
some NEAR of reaching that elusive
goal which sh; had set for herself,
her mind at first struck a snag.
But finally a brilliant idea came
to her. She remembered suddenly
that there was a business college
in the great city of which Cream
Ridge was so infiniteSimal a part,
and she remembered that once, long
ago, a young colored girl had grad
uated from it with honors. Then
why couldn't she? Stenography
struck her as being the kind of
work she would enjoy.
She applied to the college and
after several weel of conSidera-
ton W, finally admitted. But her
expenses-who was to pay them?
She had Utmost no money of her
own, and certainly she couldn't
ask her parents to take over this
added BURDEN. Could she possibly
get work? She tried. And after
about three weeks she found a
job, cooking, in a tiny tea room.
1t was kitchen work but she didn't
mind it now, for she thought of
it only rs a means to an end. And
what a lorious end!
After six long months she grad
uated, having mastered thoroughly
the ~intricacies of shorthand and
typewriting. That was a happy day
for her, TO. it meant that she vas
finally getting somewhere, accom-
pliShing something.
The next step was to find a job,
am this RAJ no easy task. There
was not a single business in Crea /
Ridge, it seemed, large enough, or
progressive enough, to require the
services of a first-class stenograph-
er. And the business men of the
downtown district took one look at
the fair olive of her skin and in
formed her with bare politeness
that no extra help was needed. She
thought finally of giving up the
tea-room job and leaving for some
other city, but just at that time
her mother became i'll and her lit
tie income was Sorely needed to
help out at home.
So she stayed on at the tea-room,
working hard, saving what little she

the walter. Jerry was a smart, up
standing chap. and he was >ambi-
tious just as Ellen was He had
worked in the tea-shop for several
years, had studied on the quiet
every phase of its operation And
some day, he told Ellen, he would
have a similar &c of his own,
serving only the best in food and
drink, catering to the highest class
of society. Oh, he had it all worked
out. For hours, sometimes. when
they were not too busy with Gus
toners, he would regale Ellen with
his plans. And she would smile
and compliment him upon them.
She came, in time, to like Jerry
for a great many reasons. After
all, he was not bad-looking; lie was
reasonably intelligent, and he had
broad vision. She could not help
feeling that his venture, whatever
it turned out to be, would not end
up a failure. She helped him plan
the exact location of the proposed
shop, helped him originate new
and tasty dishes to be featured,
helped him arrange imaginary
menus.
One day he said, ELLEN, I've got
pretty nearly e ough to get that
tea-shop started right now. I'm
going to rent that old white house
out on the road-the one tina. looks
SO much like a plantation house
and I'm going to get a 1t typical
old Southern furniture to furnish
it. All I j led now is a couple of
hundred dollars L can borrow that
and a swell little cool, like you"
Cook! The very mention of her
occupation cut Ellen to the quick.
But she smiled, knowing that Jerry
had meant nothing by his reference.
Jerry" she said, 81 think you've
got a great idea, and I think you'll
be successful at it. I'd like to work
with you-but I W didn't like to
leave this job for something that's
not just a little bit higher. I stud
led stenography, and I want to get
into that sort of work just as soon
as I get a chance"
But couldn't you cook for my
place just until you got your new
job? I wouldn't want to hold you
down if you actually had some
thing better, but after all, you
haven't, you know"
She turne' the matter over in
her mind for a few moments. FL
nally she said, you'd better give
time, Jerry. Let ne think the
whole thing over"
He said, "All right, and you let
know tomorrow what your an
is"
All that evening and late at night
she continued to think the matter
over. She liked Jerry. of course
she admitted that-but was that
any reason why she should give up
her present job for one which SEEM
ed SO uncertain, SO extremely haz-
ardous? Her mind wayered back
and forth, and when the following
morning came she still had not
come to any definite decision.
But that morning brought news
which precluded the necessity for
any conclusion. She heard from a
friend, as she was on her way toI
work. that a new young man,

A New Love Serial
By Ted HaviIand

There never were many pretty
girls In Cream Ridge, and that was
what set Ellen Young apart from
all the rest. For Ellen Young was
undeniably, radiantly, beautiful.
She was tall: her face was smooth
and olive-tinted. her hair long and
dark, her eyes deep and coal-black.
And even beyond her beauty there
was a certain charm. a hint OF
strong personality, which made her
stand out wherever she happened
to be.
The youngest of a family Of five.
she was born and brought up IN
one of those little tumble-down,
frame houses which SO abound in
Cream Ridge. And for eighteen
years she lived in the squalid, pow
erty-stricken atmosphere of this
place she called home, looking out
at the life about her with longing
eyes. with the firm hope and con-
yiction that some day, in some
manner. she would be able to make
something great and wonderful
out of herself.
One by one, she had seen her
brothers and sisters leave the little
house to get married and settle
down elsewhere, and e~nviously at
first, she had watched them. But
that envy had changed to sullen
disappointment as she came to a
better understanding of what their
marriages had really meant, as she
discovered that instead of freeing
the had shackled these brothers
and sisters of her, had chained
them unrelentingly to a life of
dreary, unrelieved monot0ny, had
killed within them whatever m
bition, whatever hopes for the flu
ture, they might ever have pos
SeSSed.
Then marriage vas certainly not
for her. But what other course
could a girl take? She ran down
the list of her closest friends, and
asked herself what each one of
them was doing.
First. there was Dora Parker.
Dora had run away when she was
fifteen, had found herself a job
in the home Of some rich woman
She was treated decently and paid
good wages, and that. for her. had
meant success. But after all, her
job was only a mental one-She
cooked and washed and ironed and
Strengthened up about the house
and that was not the kind of occu-
patton which Ellen sought for her
self.
Then there vas J-ssn Fisher, a
fine, almost beautiful young girl,
who had spent four years in a
Maryland boarding school for girls.
At the end of these four years
she had been graduated with hon.
ors, a capable dietitian. But what
had all this meant, after all? And
what was she doing now? Why,
she had practically the same kind
of job which Dora Woodworking
in somebody's kitchen.
And there were countless exam
pies of the same thing-girls who
had started out with ambition,
with great intentions, only to end
up in the same old way. Certain
ly there must be some way for a
girl, with all her life ahead of her,
to rise out of this mental, this ser
want class.
Ellen thought the matter over
time and again, but each time the
problem seemed only the mor baf-
fling. She had gone as far, at
eighteen, as the poorly equipped
schools of Cream Ridge would al
low, but what, actually, had she
learned? Had she been taught to
do any n thing which would, in
the future, contribute either di-
rectly or indirectly to her support,
which would eventually enable her

period beginning October will
be 178,900,000 barrels, or a de-

The total estimated domestic

Building continues a dead in

during this year is told by the
percentage drop of building per.

also a depression year. This
decline amounts to 67.1 per cent.
october figures offer hope for
a change in the general trend.
The drop in that month alone
for 215 cities was 66.1 per cent
from a year ago, and 14.2 per

with $76,929,109 in the same
