 MRS. DOC w7oM4oRNER : ss,::==: :==:. .;:s =s

Done - their bill against that new coat I ordered. I'll send IL back, if I lose"
 Billy Bower was every inch the proud father. The nurse had brought the baby for Angela to see. and, on Alan's suggestion, had left it until Emily had a chance to see it again.
 "She has Angela's eyes, nose just like mine, and hair - why she almost needs a haircut. She's the prettiest baby ever born in this hospital - ever born in Sumner" Bower announced.
 Emily peered into the covers at the tiny little figure Angela held so proudly in the crook of her arm. "She's adorable" Gone were most of the wrinkles, the redness. She looked more like baby now "a baby like one sees in pictures. Might I hold it?" Alan lifted the child into her arms. Emily beamed, and there was a hint of tears in her eyes.
 "Dr. Farrell told us that she wouldn't be alive if it hadn't been for you, Doc" Billy said. .
 we wondered if you'd mind If we called her - Emily, after you" Angela asked. .
 T want to call her Emily, too," Billy put in quickly.
 "I'd be thrilled if you did," Emily said, truthfully. Alan was saying: Come down to the office tomorrow, Bill. Think we can find better job for you" Emily laid the baby beside Angela again, carefully, tenderly.
 Then they were out in the hall, walking hand and hand. Alan and Emily. Farrell's whistle came to them up the stairs. And in Elm ily's ears echoed the farewell of two happy parents
 "Goodby and God bless you - Mrs. Doc!"

CHAPTER XIV

My dear, darling, dumb hus- band." Emily pulled his face close to her, kissed him again. "There, does that answer your questions2"
 Alan smiled.
 'T,m not going to St. Louis. Eric has gone, forever. Gone with the job at the medical school. never loved Eric. didn't even think I did. I knew I'd go right on loving you, forever and a day just as long as I live. You wanted to believe that was in love with Eric. You acted almost like you hoped I would be-"
 T was trying to be fair. To let you make the decision that would bring you the greatest happiness" Alan said. T did not want to let you go. I won't let you go, now, ever."
 Emily snuggled closer to him. 'Don't, Alan. Don't ever let me go. This is where I want to be, this is where I belong. Let me help you. Don't crowd me out of your professional life. Let's just live in one world-our world.
 T want to be what Dr. Farrell says I should-what Billy calls me Mrs. Doc.'"
 Alan's laugh echoed through the room. He kissed her again, then pulled her to her feet. All right, Mrs. Doc. You've a lot of patients to meet. We'd better get going Wen come back to Angela and Billy later. Grandma Frank is first"
 "I've been waiting for you to come see me-" Granda Frank cack- led in her high-pitched little voice 'I knew you would, too. Alan's mo- ther always came to see me. She was the only one I had when my boys were born"
 T have neglected you" Emily said softly, taking the bony little hand in hers, "I'll do better now"
 "It's a pity that husband of yours don't try to do some better" the aged woman went on. smiling at Alan. He's been trying to kill me of now for over a week I'll fool him. I'm going to get we'll"
 T know you will, Grandma Frank" And in her heart Emily hoped sincerely that she spoke the truth.
 'If you won't live because of us, you will in spite of us" Alan laughed, in mock chagrin. But he patted the bony hand comfort tngly before he left.
 twill she get well?" Emily asked, when they were in the hall again.
 Y doubt it. She's surprised all of us by living this long. She might make good her boast - but its not likely"
 When she goes-may be there with you, Alan?" Emily asked hesitatingly.

PRESENT WPA MAY
 CEASE TO EXIST
Conservative House Mem= bers Are Ready to Estab=
 fish New Program
By JOHN P. ZEAL

Washington, April 5-UP)-In- fiuential conservative members of the house predicted today that the Works Progress Administration as now operated would not exist after June 30.
 Their opinion was based on belief that the investigation of WPA by the house appropriations committee would result in complete revamping of the federal governments present policy of creating relief jobs. They foresaw greater state participation.
 Meanwhile, senate administration leaders were believed ready to yield to economy advocates and accept the house-approved $10O,O00,000 emer- gency relief bill-$50 ,000 900 less than President Roosevelt requested to continue WPA through June.
 May Cut It More
 Senator James F. Byrnes, D., s. C., . leader of the economy group, and his supporters on the appropriations subcommittee considering the bill have threatened to cut it to $83, ,000,- 900, unless New Dealers abandon ef- forts to restore the $50,000,0O0.
 The committee meets today to consider a routine appropriation. Action on the relief appropriation depends on the answer of Majority Leader Alben W. Barkley, D., Ky, to the economy groups ultimatum.
 The house investigation of WPA has been delegated to the appropria- tions deficiency sub-committee-the group that originally cut MT. Roose- velt's last two relief requestc. Most of the actual direction of the inves- tigation will fall to Rep. Clifton A. Woodrum, D., Va, leader of the house economy bloc.
 WOOdrum Author of Bill
 Woodrum is author of a bill de- signed to reorganize relief policy and to change the name of WPA to Un- employment Relief Administration. The new agency would be authorized to administer direct any unemploy- rnent relief, to cooperate with and make grants to states.
 Details of the inquiry still were uncertain, but the following has been decided:
 1. It will be a major investiga- tion, extending probably into 1940.
 3. Legislation probably at this session aimed at greater state par ticipation in the relief program.
 8. Close investigation of any re- quest for 1940 relief funds.
 {. Concentration on general ad- lninistration and policy, and not on individual cases of alleged abuses.

 They found old Mir. Price hunch- ed over in a chair in his son-in- laws room. He brighteAed percept- ibly when he met Emily, then took her aside to tell her more about his boy-Bud-buried under the gravel of the broken trestle.
 That's the most enthusiasm and interest the old man has shown, the son-in-law whispered to Alan Hell be telling her about those prize chickens of his any minute I now"
 Alan was happy. These people warmed to Emily, and she to them She brought them a new, sympa- thetic listener. People would find 1t easy to tell Emily their troubles. It was his task to see that she did not become too weighted down with the mental load of all of them. He finally had to call Emily away.
 "Ill be waiting for you to come out to the place." MT. Price said Want you to see those chickens. Harry Brown and Maryanne waved to them as they passed the open door.
 "Maryanne is going home tomor- row." Alan explained. Harry was on the trestle just minute before 1t fell, you know. Had a lucky es- cape"
 A nurse called to Alan. He left Emily, returned soon. Just a cou- pie of calls to make. Probably will delay lunch while longer"
 I'm not eating alone, today Emily announced. I'm going with you. Combination chauffeur, office girl, housekeeper, nurse and wife What more could you want?"
 That's all I want, Alan said You"
 Allan, there's one patient I want to see, particularly. Mrs. How land; may IF"
 Sure thing. She's right here, and feeling fine. She'll be glad to know you, I'm sure." He led the way into the room. Hello, Mrs. Rowland want you to know Mrs. Warren"
 | The woman turned a remarkably pretty face toward Emily, smiled graciously. Emily wasn't quite sure how she had imagined Mrs. Rowland would look but she cer- tainly wasn't prepared for such beauty.
 "Dr. Warren has given us some- thing very precious" Mrs. How land said. we owe you great debt, Doctor"
 Not half the debt we owe to you, Mrs. Rowland" Emily said. Alan frowned, but she went on. T think you should know. If you had not had your baby the night you did. I might have led Alan into tragic mistake, one that we both would have regretted all our lives.
 There's no danger of it occur ring again. But I want you to know that your debt to Alan, and to me, has already been paid in full. AS soon as you are able, won't you please come to see me. I'll tell you more then. know you will understand" Mrs. Rowland smiled again, and Emily knew that in her she had found a friend.
 "Now to see your patients, Mrs. Doc" Alan laughed with her. "An- gela, Billy, and the little Emily"
 "Oh, Alan, they won't call her Emily, will they?"
 "They frequently do. Half the Sarahs in Sumner were named after my Mother. Want to bet?"

Discovered America In a Leoky Ship

pROBABLY no poorer ship ever won more lasting fame than the leaky, decaying Santa Maria. It was practically worn out when the merchants Martin and Vi- cente Pinzon obtained it for Co., lumbus along with two open cara- vels in which to start out for the unknown.
 The Santa Maria, known first as the Gallego, had been trading be- tween Spain and Italy for many years when Columbus finally took command. He could not even get it properly calked. She was hardly more than three times the size of a modern ships lifeboat, though she did have plenty of beam, en- abling her to ride high rough seas.
 Yet into this ancient craft Co., lumbus crowded 52 men, together with stores and equipment and, armed with two small swivel guns, bows and arrows and swords, set sail Aug. 3, l492 for an America he did not know existed. It was invariably a hard voy- age. The ship leaked and there was little dry shelter in bad weather. Fresh water turned sour and the charts proved woefully useless. Only by the most skillful handling of his men did Columbus manage to survive at all. So it was that the Santa Maria carried him at last to a new land.
 The ship is shown above on the Scent stamp of the beautiful U. s. Columbian series of 1893. green, enlarged. The entire issue comprises l6 values tracing the whole story of the Columbus ad- l venture in the new world.

Gorens Bidding System Prevents Undervaluation of

This is the fifth of series of six articles on the hand valuation sys- tenn advocated by Charles H. Goren, Philadelphia expert, in :,is book, "Highlights of Bridge"
 Tn the hand shown today, North has Q choice after South's opening bid. The best response perhaps Is to bid merely one heart, in or- der to get souths reaction to this one-over-one force, which leaves him in the dark as to whether Norths hand is strong or weak.
 Of course, North, having an opening bid himself in honor card values, is prepared to 90 to game on the Goren principle: An open- ing bid faced by an opening bid usually produces game.
 When South responds with a jump to two no trump, North should go to slam on the Goren principle: An opening bid faced by an opening bid and a jump almost surely produces slam.

Robert L. Jewell, conductor on Train 157, which plies between Hartford and Bridgeport daily ex- cept Sundays, was recipient this noon of the New Haven Roads half. century service emblem. The cere. riony was held at the Hartford of- flee of the railroad company with W. II. Brooks, Hartford division su- perintendent, making the presenta. ton.
