Reafflrming its stand for repeal Of
the red rider, the North Cleveland
Park Citizens Association last night
voted to ask that the appendage to

THE morsel in Eben's mouth turned
to ashes. He flung the rest in
the direction of the garbage pail and
numbered after her 1t was nearly
dusk, but he had no trouble keeping
her trim figure in sight. He hid be-
hind a huge elm a half block away
as she knocked at the door of small
white house.
Eben could see the dim form Of q
man in the doorway before Mrs. Will
lis passed through the square Of light
then he slipped closer and peered
through a crack beneath the green
shade. He could see nothing but
trouser-clad legs and dainty slippers,
but he could hear a masculine rumble
mingled with Mrs. Willis light laugh
ter. Jake Barber was right. Mrs.
Willis was triflin' widow.
The rain had stopped when Eben
finished his encounter with Jake Bar
Der. AS he came out of the general
store the moist breeze fell upon his
sweating face. He threw back his
head and drank in the clean air. 1t
smelled of rich black loan, gave him
new strength.
Nov I'll 60 an lick that other
varmint on Pearl street." he told him.
self
But at the corner he met Mrs.
Willis returning home. He pulled his
battered felt hat down over his eyes
and tried to slink past her, but she
called him.
"Eben White. why are you sulkin'
about in this damp?"
Il reckon q body could ask some
other people the same thing" Eben
growled. "if he had mind to-"
why, Eben, I've just taken old
Mr. Beasley pan Of light rolls, and
I got caught in the rain. The poor
old soul"
"OLD Mr.. Beasley?" Eben repeated
slowly. Then the name clicked.
He was the old codger who used to
come in Jake's store. He was about
10 and had the palsy. and his bed
ridden wife was a hopeless paralytic.
Then that was why no women folks
had been seen.
But Jake knew; had known all
along.
Eben's fingers stif1ened with yearn-
ing for the feel Of Jake's fat throat
again. Jake had thrown him . wlaiz-
zer. He half turned, minded to go
back to the general store, but Mrs.
Willis was drawing him inside her
gate.
"Eben White, you're plumb silly to
be out in this rain with that cold.
Come in here and let me steep you
q pot of hot lemon tea"
Eben's heart pirouetted upward as
he looked down upon her. He told
himself that she was good woman
and that Jake Barber was nothing but
q babblin' idiot.
He followed her into the tidy kitchen.
He sat down at a small green break
fast table and slung his battered felt
to a far corner. Soon the odor Of
lemons drifted to him and his mouth
watered. Then Mrs. Willis saw his
eyes.
"Eben White" she accused, you've
