REGIN HERE TODAY


Treasure Mcclure owed her name to
the love her mother bore her, and her
beauty to her grandmother who had
been chorus girl Deserted with her
mother and five younger brothers and
sisters by her boorish father, Treasure
obtains employment in a night club as
hostess, though she is but 10.
When her father returns he not dis
pleased that Treasure is earning wages,
though they are mainly tips and she
continues her distasteful occupation
partly because her mother, who is i'll
and going to have a baby. needs the
things. her tips can buy.
At the club Treasure attracts the none
too welcome attentions of Rudolf Mol
mari. rich young patron who previous
~ had been the property of Juanita
Defoe, another hostess. Because Rudolf
presses his attentions on Treasure,
Juanita hates her. Oliver Keith, piano
player in the club orchestra has been
Treasures only friend in her new life
until one night Rudolf brings his
younger brother. Tony. to the club. Tony
and Treasure dance the tango together
Even before they dance Treasure knows
that Tony is the man she loves.
When Rudolf insists she let him take
her home. she eludes him and slips off
with Tony in a taxi. When the taxi
stops before her home Tony draws her
unresisting into his arms. Their lips
meet in a long, sweet kiss before he
whispers. I'll see you again soon"
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1935-01-24
CHAPTER SEVEN
TT seemed divinely right that he

1T seemed divinely right that he
Il should kiss her. There was
nothing cheap or common about it,
thought Treasure, lying wide awake,
living over the wonder Of that sin
gle caress, exchanged with a boy
she had not even known three hours
before.
Not until then did it occur to her
that Tony had given her no money.
Far from resenting this she was
glad. Sure that he considered their
dance a mutual JOY for which
money could not pay.
For the first time since she had
gone to work at the club she had
not made a penny outside her petty
commission on the drinks which
was figured up weekly. Yet never
had she been SO happy. Never felt
an evening SO we'll spent.
Part of this may have resulted
from the relief she felt from the
burden of supporting the family.
Now that they were no longer de-
pendent upon her, Ellen had sug-
gested that Treasure return to
school but she had refused, saying
her class would be too far ahead of
her-she couldn't graduate. Be-
sides Mike Mcclure might take a
notion to wander again.
In no condition to argue, Ellen
recognized the wisdom of this and
the girls father was glad enough to
have her contribute to the family
income by buying her own clothes.
She had also persuaded her mother
to see a doctor, whose advice, paid
for by Treasure, was to stay off her
feet.
This seeming impossible, Ellen
ignored it. Although Treasure helped
all she could there was plenty of
work to do for the family of seven.
What with washing and ironing and
cleaning and cooking the two, of
them were kept busy every day I'M
til 2 or 3 o'clock.
Treasure would say, please lie
down for a while, Mama!" or Let
me do that" but, Ellen, thin as a
rail, anemic and undernourished,
was driven by nervous energy
which would not permit her to re-
lax.
Even in her sleep she tossed and
turned and cried out as if some one
were torturing her. She did SO to-
night and Treasure, her mind still
on Anthony, stretched out a COM
forting hand murmuring, You're
all right, Mama!"
But this time Ellen was not asleep.
She spoke YEARLY but calmly, un-
willing to brighten her daughter.
Something is wrong, Treasure.
You'll have to call the doctor"
All through that night, the hor-
ror of which never afterward real
ly left her. the thought of Anthony
lay secure and sweet in Treasures
mind. 1t was the only bright spot
in darkness which threatened to
engulf her as she watched her
mother. go down into the very
shadow of death.
When he saw the condition of his
patient the doctor had telephoned
for a nurse but Treasure did not
waken her father who slept undis-
turbed by the confusion.
I'D rather not call him." Treasure
said when the doctor asked for him.
He stared at her with curiosity.
why not?"
He'll only be in the way. He
can't do anything"
We'll, you call him anyway" he
said firmly.
He is afraid mother is going to

er too exhausted to move until
morning. But her first thought,
even before opening her eyes, was,
81 wonder if he will be there to-
night"
1t was a long hard day. The
nurse had left and there was not
only the care of her mother but
the house to clean and the meals
to cook. Treasure plunged into it
bravely. And Ellen, who was ex-
ceptionally cheerful considering all
she had been through, was uncom-
planning.
It don't feel it's fair for me to
lie here and let you do all this
work." she said as Treasure brought
her breakfast.
Don't worry about that, Mama"
'You can ask Mrs. O'Flaherty to
come in and do the washing and
ironing"
Ellen spoke with so much more
decision than usual that Treasure
was surprised.
81 haven't enough money to pay
her., she OBJECTED.
That's all right. Mike will take
care of it. I told him this morn
ing he'd have to-"
Treasures blue eyes were as wide
as saucers.
why, Mama!"
The statement as we'll as the fact
was unprecedented. Never since her
daughter could remember. had Ellen
MCGUIRE told her husband he's have
to do anything.
I'm not going to have you break
ing your back doing that washing, .
Ellen asserted stoutly
So that was it! She, who had
never been able to defend herself,
would risk even Mike McGuires dis
pleasure for the daughter who was
dearer than life. Treasure, leaning
over to kiss the wan face, felt tears
choking in her throat.
you eat your breakfast now"
she scolded. Every bit of it. The
doctor said you were to have lots
of good, nourishing food"
Again her mothers answer sur
prised her.
81 feel as if I might. It's been
so long since anything tasted good
to me-"
More amazing yet she actually
ate everything on her plate and
afterward lay reading the paper
Mike had left behind him and look
ing more normal than she had for
months.
Encouraged by these signs Treas
ure sang as she flew about her work.
Her voice was a husky contralto
but it was roughly sweet and Ellen,
listening, thought, shes inherited
it from her grandmother. I'm glad
that's all she inherited"
Briskly efficient Treasure man
aged to finish the work by o'clock
in time to lie down for a nap. She
woke feeling refreshed and expect
ant. AS if something delightful
were about to happen.
Surely tonight Tony Molinari
would return to dance the tango
with her. But although eager eyes
watched the door all evening, again
she was doomed to disappointment.
Tony did not come.
She was so silent on the way
home that Oliver asked sympa-
thetically, Still worried about your
mother?"
She answered with an effort, Not
nowI She's getting along much bet
ter than I expected"
She did not see divers quick

would leave you sitting here and go
off with her." the boy said. "Ot
course, I never have; but if 1
should, I would"
He thought that he was being
very brave, very male, very adult!
Poor boy! that isn't the way Don
Juan acted, if it were Don Juan
that the boy wanted to be. The
master lover always left a nice glow
in every woman'S heart. He may
have been as tickle as a thermo-
meter on a variable March day, but
he acted with grace. He may have
broken woman'S heart, but he
never damaged her pride. There
aren't many Don Juans.
The girl, however, kept her dig
nifty and humor.
Man Has Obligation
Bad manners are never forgiven.
Wax as romantic as you please, bad
taste is bad taste and there are few
things more disgusting. An escort
who takes a girl to place of en-
tertainment commits himself to be
attentive to her while she is his
guest.
Where a mans fancy wanderS is
his own business. He is privileged
to dash upon the stage and carry
away any one he wants to if he is
alone. But when he has woman
with him, chivalry-a nice old term
meaning protective kindness and
acknowledgements that he rescue
her first in case of fire.
We all love freedom. Even the
best. trained heart has its vagabond
moments. Especially masculine
hearts, since there is an innate in
clination IN a man to choose one
woman who is a relief from all
other women, denoting that men
and women alike feel the need Of
emotional stability.
Distinctions Cited
There is a great distinction be-
tween infatuation or fascination,
and love or devotion. One may
bump into the former any time.
But we were talking about the
boy and girl. 1t developed present.
ly that the boy was from Harvard
and that he was due to meet some
one who was driving him back to
Cambridge that night. There was
scarcely time to make the connec-
ton and if he didn't, he would haye
a long, disagreeable ride.
Put me in a cab. I'll get home
all right" the girl persisted. "You
mustn't get held up"
Put you in a cab!" the boy eX-
ploded. Il will not! What kind Of
a cad do you think I am? I'm
taking you home safely! Put you in
a cab at this hour!"
He was still talking about it as
they left, and the girl hadn't men
toned his other remark. We hope
that she didn't bring it up in the
cab. A sense of humor is valu-
able balm at times.

the declarer deliberately let's his
opponents win a trick that he could
have trumped?
First, let us consider the bidding.
North's bid of two no trump is
justified, because he has the posi-
ton for the no trump contract and,
when South bids three hearts, he is
justified in bidding four spades to
show a fit. Then, when South bids
five spades, he is correct in taking
the bid to six spades, as he has a fit
in hearts also.
WEST makes a natural opening
w of the jack of hearts. The
trick is won in dummy with the
king. Of course, this is fortunate
opening, as a club would immedi-
ately spell defeat for the contract
Declarer's next play should be the
ace of diamonds from dummy, upon
which he should discard a losing
club. Then the queen of diamonds
should be played and, when East
plays low, declarer should discard
another losing club.
West will win the trick with the
king and will return the ten OF
hearts, which South will win with
the queen.
The ace and king Of spades should
then be cashed and then the ace
Of hearts played. East fortunately
is out of trump and will discard
the eight of clubs
The four of hearts should now be
played. West will play the nine
and dummy will trump with the
queen, East discarding another club.
The good jack of diamonds
should be played and another losing
club discarded from declarer's hand.
Then a small club from dummy
is won by declarer with the ace, the
jack Of spades played to pick up
Vests eight spot, and the rest of
the tricks are the declarer's, giving
him his contract of six odd.

Solution to Previous
Contract Problem
BY w. E. ETKENNEY
Secretary American Bridge League

WE used to say that the thrill in
w contract was the bidding and
making of a small slam, but I be-
lieve that have to correct that.
The thrill in contract today is the
bidding of a slam and then max
ing it, because you receive for
tunate opening, or through some
tricky play.
Today's hand somewhat reminds
me of a football game, where FUN
BILE occurs on about the 10-yard line
and the opponents grab it and run
80 yards for a touchdown.
