Now, listen, I don't approve OF
this hospital training, but If you
must try it, go and see MISS
Phelps, the chief nurse at st.
Johns, and say I sent you. Then
come back at and I'll take you
for drive and We'll talk it over"
Thanks, Donald. Goodbye"
He watched her go. A tall. slim
child with gold curls showing
under the little black hat, and a
smattering of freckles over her
tip-tilted nose.
When th2 nurse raped, very
softly, for the third time, she
found him staring into space, his
long legs stretched out before him,
hands in his pockets, something
like despair on his thin, ruddy
face.
Christie walked up the broad
stone steps to St. Johns Hospi-
tai, hoping her voice wouldn't
shake too much when she asked
for the superintendent of nurses.
Self-conscious and miserable,
she waited in a corridor. Other
people waited, went away. She de-
cided they'd forgotten her. Then,
before she was quite ready, before
she had her little speech all pre-
pared in her head, a secretary
called her.
Her voice did quake a little at
first, but it didn't matter, because
tall, red-faced Miss Phelps did all
the talking.
Light headed with relief, she
walked down the stairs again,
clutching her bag with the memo
randa of things she was to get and
to do.
Things were coming along.
Shed had a lot of bad breaks,
but she could take it. Dad always
said she was a chip off the old
block, and she'd go right on be-
ing it, even if he wasn't really
her father.
Matter of fact, don't believe
I'm not his daughter she told
herself as she walked on down
the street, swinging her bag by
its strap, stepping out briSkly.
That wasn't strictly true. The
letter did seem to prove other
wise. But just the same she
could think as she liked.
Mentally she adjusted the
white-winged cap she'd soon be
wearing. She could almost hear
her starched blue skirts rustic
as she walked.
When two boys in ramshackle
old car painted yellow honked
and drew up to the curb, laugh
ing and making loud remarks
about room for one more" and
''three's not a crowd today" she
realized that she must have been
smiling to herself.
But she didn't care. She felt
like smiling. A spring day like
this, with SparrowS making bold
love in the tree-shaded street and
the very air caress....
And because she couldn't help
being glad she was alive she
thought again Of dad, who was
dead.
This would be a good afternoon
to carry some flowers out to the
cemetery. She didn't go there
very often. Of course, where he
was gone it didn't matter. He'd
be the first one to say it was
nonsense. Still, If others have
flowers on their graves, dad
ought to have some, too.
She took a street car to the
gates. Then she walked, in the
warm, bright sun, out the long
gravel road to the plot Nettie
had bought last September.
The big white stone, with
Cooper" cut into it, didn look
quite SO new any more and the
heather and acacia trees by the
path were heavy with bloom.

Hewitt died in poverty here Sunday
Of a heart attack. and his body lay
unclaimed at the District Morgue
while police sought to get in touch
with his relatives.
Last night a brother, James Hewitt
OF Philadelphia, came here to make
plans for the funeral. The National
Press Club Post of the American
Legion, through Its commander,
Edward NICE. Lewis, already was
making arrangements to give Hewitt
q hero's burial
The post will provide guard Of
honor, Lewis said, as will the French
Embassy. Last rites PROBABLY will be
held in the chapel at A ington.
1t seemed probable today that
Hewitts 10-year-old son, Thomas
Hewitt, Sd. will not come to the
funeral. Hewitt's mother lives in
New York City and her health will
not permit her to attend, Legion ofi-
cials were informed
The coroner's office, meanwhile,
issued a certificate of death from
natural causes in Hewitt,s case. The
war hero died at rooming house

NEW YORK, Jan. Is U.N.S).
Pressure on the cotton market
continued throughout the session
and prices closed at their lows
for the day in most instances,
with losses ranging to so cents
a bale. A decline in Liverpool
and profit-taking on yesterdays
advance contributed to the easier
tone Of the market. Far Eastern
selling was largely in the distant
months, depressing these options
somewhat more than the rest of
the market. January, which was
weak yesterday, met with less
selling.
The Far East, the South, COM

Declines ranging from a small frac-

tered in today's brief session Of
the stock market. All groups
drifted lower in rather dull trad
ing.
Traders seemed more inclined to
await some new development
either in the form of Supreme

something in regard to the future
fiscal policy of the Government.
Reports from steel centers indi-
Gated that operations next week

Industrials, rails, and utilities
ell moved lower in the reaction.
Motors, steels, chemicals, alcohols,

manner. Commodities were fea-
tured by a sharp rise in coffee fol-
lowing announcement that the
