CHAPTER xxx

II was 4 o'clock. Her STEP
father had not yet come in. In
these three days since the quar-
rel when Nell refused him the
money, Henry Mason had not
spoken to her. Ae had been out
very late each night.
How desolate to die alone, :"
Nell thought. could he not wait
these few months?"
Then it occurred to her that she
was very much like her mother.
She, too, was the adoring woman
ON her knees to her mate. Men
cannot stand this. They go away
and leave you, hating your weak,
imperiouS need of them.
"Are you crying, Nellie, dear"
"Just a little, Nom. You suffer
so.'
Not now. Not at all"
"And 1 know you're lonely,
sad"
It have you. I have Jimmy"
Her mothers eyes closed. Tears
came to the corners. After long
while Nom said slowly-with
great effort: "Nellie, don't blame
him. He has been kind to me. I
know that must be hard-seeing
what, L have become. I don't
mind -fSaU he seeks another"
"Oh, nj"
Her 4nu...-r gave a deSpairing
smile Il know it. 1 want you to
remember that I'm glad if any
happiness comes to enry.
Through me he has had very lit
tle."
Her mothers hand motioned to
the window. The scrap of a let
ter, Nell. From her. He reads
them in the night, thinking I
sleep. Pick that up. Don't let
him know I ever knew"
Mechanically Nell picked up the
two fragments. She tore them
into little bits and let them drift
window.
Nov go and rest" said Nom
with relief. I'm better"
Nell crept to her bed. She felt
icy with cold. Her teeth chartered
noisily. She couldn't stop them.
She drifted into heavy opaque
sleep. Sleep weighed her down
like a ton of lead. Above it her
mind wandered distressfully.
She awakened finally at z. She
felt weak with alarm. Her whole
body shook with apprehension.
She thought beaten: 1T will be
born today" Secretly her mind
added: 1T will be dead"
All morning as she waited on
her mother and as she cleaned
the house, the horrible visions of
the night afflicted her. She
dreaded entering her mothers
room. Each time the face against
the pillows looked more sunken.
It was a gray shadow of a face
that stirred and moaned.
About / o'clock Nell began to
pack her suitcase. Her date was
the 10th of May. But she must be
ready, the doctor said.
Nell had before her the list of
things she was to bring to the hos
pital for the baby's homecoming.
Gay embroidered sacque that Ma
mie made; a bonnet with ribbons;
soft, white eiderdoWn wrap with
sprigs of forget-me-nots for but
tons.
She had pictured Ricky carrying
the baby home in this. In one of
his earlier letters he wrote: "It
will mean $25 railroad fare to get
me to New York. But I'm going
to be with you if it costs $125 and
my job to boot. This is one thing,
sweetheart, my dear, you're not
going to meet alone"
She knelt before the suitcase, lost
in mmories. She saw before her

fled. Her heart went melting and
'hurried.
She remembered the countless
times they had sat on the couch,
looking at the East River and the
moon dipping spoons of silver in
the water. How fresh his kisses
were: how new and tender each
careSS!
She spoke aloud: you've not
changed! You couldn't change" :"
She felt convinced, as though she
had seen clearly into the troubled
past. Seen and understood.
She got up suddenly and put on
her coat, her whole being con.
sumed with passion to hear from
him.
I'm going out to do little
shopping. You'll be all right, nom,
dear?"
Nom gave her a look of terrified
appeal. For the first time Nell
saw dread mingled with the Suf-
fering in her mothers eyes. She
thought with panic: She's dying!"
But she must get out and wire
Ricky. She must somehow and
instantly bring him to her.
She started quickly down the
many steps. Sweat broke out on
her forehead. Shafts of pain tore
momentarily through her. She
smiled and knew that the skin
drew tight about her teeth.
1t was hysterical in her: it was
foolish. She had almost three
weeks to wait. This was just a
warning. She knew of these
things.
She was struggling now for
breath. Her lungs seemed tight
and her heart swollen. She tried
to Taught at the fears. And could
not.
Sometimes a shock hastens the
birth. She recalled fantastic and
terrifying tales.
This is nonsense in me, of
course" she told herself, clinging
to the bannister and resting as the
street landing was reached. But
she opened her mouth for air. She
felt loaded down and as though
each step was a strain past bear
ing.
1T would be better if I could
get down and Creep" she thought
in panic. finding herself almost
unable to walk. She went along
slowly, resting every few steps, ig-
noring the weakness in her limbs,
and the sweat which she had to
wipe continually from her hands.
The store where she could send
the telegram; where she could sit
and wait for his answer was but
two blocks distant.
But the blocks stretched out end
lesSly. They were burning wastes
Of blocks. They were deserts
where the air was thin and she
could scarcely breathe. She had
reached the end of the first when
a sudden jagged arrow of pain
brought her arms hugging about
her and a sharp, wildly indignant
cry to her lips. 1t lasted bu a
moment. It left her moits, fright.

limp with alarm. It occurred to
her distraught mind that the baby
was coming. It might be born in
the street.
A little boy passed. Nell called
to him. Stand here a moment,
feel ill.,"
The bewildered lad complied. He
was frightened. He thought her
mad.
'I have a little brother like you.
Walk with me to that house.
Please"
And the child did.
She was again at the foot of the
dreary, devastating stairs. She
began to climb upward, narrowing
pictures of her mother adding to
her sickness and fear.
I'll phone the DOCTOR" she
thought with sudden decision. I'LL
ask Mama RaSkovitch to get him."

fact that old age is something for
which provision must be made. Too
many people, either through inability
to do so or because of shiftlessness,
journey through life without much
thought of what is to happen to them
when their working years are over.
1t is matter of record that under
normal conditions, only four or five
persons out of a hundred who begin
at age 25 are Independent if they
live to age IS. The need for old age
provision is therefore a need to all
and the time to make provision is
when the. individual is passing
through his working years. The sys-
tenn the government has established
compels provisions during these years
and in order not to make the assess
ment load too heavy for the i dividual,
compels also the building of the pen
sion fund through employer assess
ments. The Leader has criticized GER
tain of the administrative features of
the system and undoubtedly changes
will be made. With the purpose of
the system, we are in hearty accord.

(The st. Paul Daily News)

(Ine ST. Paul Daily NeWS)
John Hamilton's offer to resign as
chairman of the Republican national
committee was rejected at Chicago
and he was overwhelmingly reelected
In fact, the national commit eemen
and women present gave him a vote
of confidence-in what it was not spe-
Gifted.
Rep. Hamilton Fish, Jr, New York
made the lone protest against the con-
firmation and called for "liberaliza-
ton of the G. o. P. and new COM
mand. He didn't get to first base.
Perhaps the affirmation of approval
of the most overwhelming defeat ever
suffered by the party is not to be
taken too seriously at this time. Re-
teDtiOn of Chairman Hamilton was
deemed necessary to save faces. After
all, If the committee had thrown him
out, it would have admitted that the
last campaign was the biggest flop in
the party's history. That would never
do.
Our best guess is, however, that be-
fore the next election there will be
some changes. Mr.. Hamilton may
stay on but he won't have much to
say about the next campaign.
