SYNUPoIh Tommy Randolph, futare football hero, was “always different" even as a baby. Born in a tiny Middle West factory town, he was the delight of his humble parents. Mom and Pop. The latter, adorable Democrat, wanted to name the boy William Jennings Bryan, hot Uncle Ixinie. another indubitable Democrat. prevailed in having the infant christened Thomas Jefferson. Sturdy little Tommy paid no attention to strange baby carriage Ogiers until Ole Use, feared and aged colored woman, peered like a witch at him one day; he smiled, and Mom was amazed when the cackling erone put "a good wish" on him. ... As Tommy grew, he was still “different.” running away from a boy’s job in the glassworks where l Pop and his brother. Fete, worked. Tommy connected with the local | News olbce and then shocked Pop' by declaring he intended going to high school where he soon won renown about town at “the football”, much to Mom's amazed pleasure. She meets Charlie Whitney, millionaire factory owner, as she is shopping downtown one afternoon. He greets her most cordially and praises her athletic son while bewildered neighbors look on. Ijter Tommy tells Mom that he's taking Dot Whitney, the millionaires daughter, to a school dance. Mom recalls pleasant memories of the august Whitney family.... CHAPTER FIVE Then Charlie had gone off to college and Mom had lost track of him until the wedding. She had been married two years and already had Pete when the papers had all the fuss about Charlie Whitney’s getting married to some girl over east. Everybody was dying to see her and when Charlie brought her home Mom used to make excuses to go by the big house just to get a look at her. She was a pretty little thing with awful fancy clothes that made her look like one of those French dolls; but she must have been delicate because it wasn’t long until she went into a decline and people said the place didn't agree with her. She was awful nice, too, and once when Mom was pushing Tommy along in his new buggy she stopped Mom and excused herself and made a big fuss over Tommy, particular over the way he looked back at her the same brave way he did at I everybody. Mrs. Charlie was so friendly that Mom told her about the good wish the old witch had put on the boy; and Mrs. Charlie was real interested and said she wished somebody would put a good wish on her, too; and then she broke right down and told Mom she had just come from the doctor's; and Mom was the first one to know but she kept it to herself because Mom was not the kind to run all over the street with something like that. Sure enough, the poor thing had passed away when the baby was born. Everybody in town was sorry for poor Charlie and the motherless little girl. Mom had a cry all to herself because she knew all the poor sweet girl had had to go through; and Mom had known all along she wasn’t long for this world. It was bad enough for anybody, Mom thought, but girls like that should never be made to have | babies although Mom was never L one to question God’s will. But she couldn’t help but wonder why it was that a sweet little mother like that, with everything in the world, i had to go, while other people who didn’t deserve children, had them ! one after the other and paid no more attention to them than the cats—and yet they grew up big and 1 strong. j Little Dorothy had had a good k inging up because Charlie's;

mother had tended to that and she was a good woman but very stem and proud and had many times sent Mom scooting for nothing at all when she had been a little girl around the place. Then Old Charlie had died sudden and Charlie had to give so much of his time to the business that the little girl didn’t have as much of a father, either as she should. She had everything, of course, but she didn't have a' mothers love and a girl needed that more than a boy. Some said she was spoiled with this-and-that; but Mom wouldn’t see it in her and she wouldn’t have cared if she did; there were worse things in the world than a little spoiling for a child. And whenever Mom saw Dorothy she always saw the day her sweet little mother had stopped to make a fuss over Tommy. The girl had her mother's eyes, pretty and melting, like the sun on the morning dew when the fog had not quite left the air; and there was that same little bit of sadness about them that always made Mom want to take the little girl to her and hold her real tight. Os course she never had. Now and then she met Dorothy in a store or on the street but she always just smiled and so did Dorothy. Mom couldn’t tell Dorothy that, in her mind, she was like ter own daughter because of what the girl’s mother had told her that day; and not even Pop ever knew how much Mom had wanted a little girl herself. And now here was Tommy taking Dorothy to a dance. Somehow Mom felt that up in heaven Dorothy’s mother was nodding and smiling to her; but Mom couldn't help but wonder what the proud old Grandmother would say. « • • Mom gradually became accustomed to being pointed out as the mother of the high school football star. She even grew to enjoy it because it gave her a feeling of superiority over the other neighbor ladies which she needed badly. Left alone, Mom was a peaceable person; but since Tommy had become so important around town some of the other women had tried to say things about him and Mom needed a coat of armor to fight 1 j them back. i She knew that Mrs F — ”
