There was no doubt in her NINA
/ that Sutton had already been con-
shifted by both principals ana
superintendent, and told what TO
expect if this obstinate young Wo-
man chose to take matters in her
own hands. Certainly neither he
nor any other member OF his
Board appeared taken by surprise;
therefore, if she had expected
to throw a bombShell, her Weap-
on had certainly proved a dud!
She returned nome very much
depressed. with the flat, let-doWn
feeling which comes with the IN
ner conviction that one has MADE
a fool of ones self. Not that she
did not believe herself right; she
was convinced of the rightneSs OF
her course. But to take your cour-
age in both hands and essay an
important step in the interest OF
Justice and then find yourself

sponsible child was almost too
much to endure.
Jonathan would come to the
house after evening office hours.

what or eayth he would do with

make conversation. Her mother 5

What in the world is the matter
with you, Rose? You didn't eat a
thing at dinner. Are you i'll.
? You haven't quarrelled
with Jonathan, have you?'
I'm perfectly all right" she
said, again and again, No, we
haven't quar-elled, where did you
get such a crazy idea?" But Mrs.
Ward could scent trouble as a cat
catnip. She followed Rose about
the living room, watched her pick
up a book and fling it down again,
watched her poke needleSsly at
the fire, watched her finger objects
on the table, watched her pick up
a vase and permit it to slide
through her fingers and shatter
on the floor. Il must say, COM
mented Mrs. Ward tartly, that

with a dustpan and broom and

assistance, pushed her aside. For

Matters were not mended when

There was just a suspicion OF
swagger in his walk and the odor
of liquor was perfectly plain. He
took off his racoon coat and let
it fall to a chair, followed by the
hat he held in his hand. He said,

She wasn't, she assured herself,

best of it.
Her mind made up, Roe ap-
peared before the Board at the
next meeting and made her
charges. She was. she admitted
to herself. terribly frightened.
Walking into the room. she Won
dered if everyone in it would know
that her knees were shaking ana
that the palms of her hands were
icy and damp. Il aeemed absurd
to be afraid of men she had known
all her life and yet looking around
the circle of frankly hostile faces,
her heart quivered and sank. But
she kept her chin up and the
color rose to her cheeks and her
eyes were bright with challenge.
When she knocked on the door OF
the Board room che told herself,
this is the most unpleasant party
you've ever crashed.
Standing there by the sbig table,
speaking quietly, she assured the
members of the Board that she
knew her behavior was probably
most irregular but that she had
been to both Nj Martin and TO
Mr.. Rogers on The matter and had
had no satisfaction. Ergo, there
was nothing else TO dO but appeal

ing to smile a little.

She was charging Larry Dexter
specifically with failure IN cla-S
work. with cheating at eXamina-
tionS-and not even successfully
enough to paSS-and with a total
disregard of authority or diScip-
line. She was also charging him
with undermining the fellow stu
dents discipline and character.
Afterwards she listened to the
Senator's little speech. 1t was so
brief, so inclusive. so almost
graceful that it occurred 10 her
later that it could not be entirely
spontaneous. The Board, ne "a
Sured her. was grateful 20 Miss
Ward for bringing this matter to
their attention. At the same time
the Board-he knew he spoke for
his fellow members-could not
help but feel that her attitude
was one of mistaken zeal, and that
she exaggerated the facts. How
ever. the Board would confer on
the matter and reserve their deci-
sion for a later period. Such grave
accusations could not be ignored.
But a decision which might effect
the entire life of a student could
not be handed down lightly. Thank
you. Miss Ward.
She was dismissed. She was
quite aware. walking away from
the door she had shut quietly,
down the long corridor. that she
had committed possibly the major
idiocy of her life. My hair, she
told herself abSurdly isn't red.
but I've a red-headed temper.
She thought. if I hadn't met

angered me perhaps. would have
forced myself to believe that dis
cretiCn is the better part of valor.

Cupboard Space
Urged For Navy

SAN MATEO. Cal. Oct. 81 CUP)
Stuart R. Ward, state chairman
of the American Legion National
Defense commission, today urged
the construction of more Pacific
coast cupboard space for naval
supplies.
THE Pacific coast has only one
quarter as much cupboard space
for naval supplies as has the At
lantic coast, yet We have the en-
tire fleet on our hands, Ward
said.
ITO be exact. he said, although
the Atlantic coast, with practically
no naval vessels, maintains over
100000 covered square feet of ma
val storage space. our Pacific coast
has but Approximately 100000
square feet to supply the entire
battle fleet"
