CHAPTER XVIII They went on through the living room into the consulting room. Jonathan asked, tossing his outer I Ihings aside, “Nothing wrong I tope, Senator?** Sutton, who clung to his past title jvith a leech-like tenacity, rubbed Hs hands together. “Well, yes,’’ he laid, “and no. All depends on how jou look at it How’d you like the School job, my boy?’’ Jonathan’s eyebrows shot upward. He said, “But I thought that Doctor Mason—?” “Mason,” interrupted Sutton, "is a sick man. Been sick for months. Going away to recuperate ... doubt If he’ll practice much when and if he returns. Hasn’t really practiced for that matter for some years. I (;ot his resignation last night. Now you, you’re young, your practice hasn’t reached great proportions as yet, so an outside job would not interfere. Besides the school work would put you in closer touch with our little community,” he said caressingly, as if he spoke of an indulged child, “and you’ve all sorts of dp and coming and modern ideas. . . . Mason, poor old coot, hasn’t had a new idea since the Spanish War. We’ve got a mighty fine school nurse; of course she’ll cooperate with you in every way. I heard you talking to Sally the other night—about the necessity for a stricter medical examination of school athletes . . . didn’t you quote a lot of statistics about the greater number of accidents in football happening to sand-lot players, and high school kids? Well, then, here’s your chance to put your theories into practice. The town hasn’t quite got over young Mike O’Hara’s death, couple of years ago. ... Great kid on the track, Mike, but no one seemed to know that he had a bad heart till he dropped dead in full sight of three quarters of the town at an inter-scholastic meet. . . . Then, I’ve been thinking that some day I might endow a dental clinic. Other towns not much larger than ours, have dental clinics.” Jonathan shook his head dazedly. He said, “8ut.,.” “Too many buts. You’re always butting in,” said the Senator, and laughed heartily at his own merry jest. He slapped Jonathan on the back and gave him a brightly banded cigar—“told you I had ’em made for me in Havana, didn’t I?’’ he asked. He went on, clipping the end from another fat black roll of tobacco, "I think I can jam your appointment through, call a special meeting of the Board and all that. There’ll be no objection. You’ll take Mason’s place for the remainder of the school year and if you make good you’ll sail in next year without any difficulty. Contract and all that perfectly secure. It will give you I something to do, and a little extra income and won’t take up too much of your time.” He rose heavily from the chair beside Jonathan’s desk. “Well, I must be off,” he said, “just wanted to make sure you had no objection to the job.” Jonathan got to his feet and went to the door with him. It occurred to him afterwards that if he had had an objection he had not been given an opportunity to voice it Ex-Senator Sutton was like a friendly steam-roller — cordial and overwhelmingly benevolent—but a steam-roller for all that “I like you,” boomed the great man, at Jonathan’s door. “We need more young men like you in the I town. • And if I’m not betraying a ; secret Sally likes you, too.” He closed one porcine eye in a ponderwink. “Come on up and see her some time,” he added in an astonI Ishing falsetto and, roaring with laughter, opened the door and was gone.

Jonathan watched him roll down I the steps and into his car. When | he heard the door slam ho turned away. He went back to his desk and sat down and picked up a book 1 and looked at it. He put the book I aside and took paper and pen in i order to write his news to Ballard. He laid the half-finished letter I aside, yawned, and leaned back in 1 his chair. School doctor. It could be, he thought frowning, in a town of this size, a real job or a sinecure. He suspected that it had been a sinecure for some time past. He thought of the salary which Sutton had named before he left It would pay the rent and it would pay Evelina. It would be something definite coming in. He began to think that Sutton was, after all, not nearly as black as he was painted. He certainly had the best interests of the town at heart. He was of course pretty conspicuous in his methods, he did as he pleased, got what he wanted. But if he considered only the town in the last analysis, why criticize what was merely the ebullience of a forceful personality? The telephone rang and he picked up the extension on his desk. ... "Doctor Kimber speaking.” “Is that your professional manner, Kim? This is Sally. Oh, you knew it, did you? Has Dad been I there yet?” “He just left,” said Jonathan, "did you want him?” “No, you dope, I want youl Well, are you going to take the job?” Jonathan smiled, “Yes, lam . . I’m very grateful to your father-” “Don't be. . . I’ve been talking to him about it for weeks. Old man Mason is a dear good soul, and a fossil. He should be in a glass case. They should have retired him long ago, he must be pushing a hundred So thank me ... nicely. “I do.” he replied, a little stiffly, wondering why he disliked finding himself under obligation to Sally Sutton. “That will never do. You’ll have j to do it in person. Come to dinner tonight” "I’ve office hours, Sally.” “Oh, drat your office hours . . . must you have them every night?” "I'm afraid so,” he said, laughing. “Well, look then, how about the nine o’clock movie and back here ; after? I’ll drop around and wait for ' you. No. I won’t listen. I’m com- ■ mg anyway. And if you won’t see I anyone but patients, I’ll break a . leg. Devotion can go no further.. •." ! She rang? off and he leaned back I in the chair again. He heard sorne- > one ring at tne side door. As he ■ rose to answer it he reflected that ; Sally was her father’s own daughi ter. Also a steam-roller. Gold-plated, i platinum trimmed and set with diai monds. but— a steam-roller. For the i first time since he had known the . family he began to consider Mrs. t Sutton. She had appeared to him as -a carbon copy of something, he didn’t quite know what Now he t wondered how she had maintained 1 her well-corseted plumpness and 1 had not been pressed to a mere flati tened likeness of herself between . Sally and the Senator. i He had no time to call Rose dur--1 ing the day. His office hours in the i morning were taken up with three patients each with an interminable t story and then he was called out. He 1 managed a sketchy dinner under > Evelina’s disapproving, gaze and k then made some calls m town. On > his return he found a message from - the country and went on out again, r He wished before he had gone very - far on the hard-packed ice and snow i that he had hired the cutter again, i On the way back he stopped to see the Peters* baby and egme home to

natural gas rates the tribunal upheld a lower court decision by an i evenly divided court, four justices i ’ voting either way. Justice George | Sutherland, whose retirement has . 1 frequently been predicted, did not I join in the opinion, making the . spilt possible. Van Devanter, It was recalled. I failed to vote in a closely divided case the day before his retirement was announced. The California case decision was regarded as unique since the decision served to set aside orders of the state utility commission for a rate reduction The court ordered several other i controversial cases reargued In | the fall. This indicates that the ■ tribunal Is having some trouble In I reaching a decision on the issues. Apparently taking a hint from 1 the president's court plan, the I court on two issues Involving ! conflicting federal and state authl ority, ordered the United States Ito appear and argue the issue , from the federal viewpoint. Tin ’ court bill provides for federal [ representation in cases which may i Involve federal authority.

find three messages on the telephone pad. At supper he was too tired to eat He thought of what Doctor Ballard’s days had probably been, and nights too, and told himself that he couldn’t take it, he was soft But after a cup of Evelina’s eoffee, a batch of her hot biscuits, baked ham, preserves, hashed-in-cream potatoes and chocolate cake, he felt like a new man and tackled his seven to nine office hours with renewed vigor. There were only two patients. He was through a little after eight and began to contemplate an early bedtime. He’d go upstairs and read; there were a couple of articles he especially wanted to see, and several books he had ordered from New York which he hadn’t looked into as yet. He had completely forgotten Sally. He had not, however, forgotten Rose. He called her and Mrs. Ward told him that she had gone out with Bill Lynd. He hung up, feeling rather let down. He had wanted to tell her about the school job and see what she thought of it Surely, as far as her own school was concerned, she might have all sorts of interesting ideas. He was trailing upstairs, the magazine and books under his arm, contemplating a lazy hour or so and prayerfully hoping that he wouldn’t be called out, when the door bell rang. He dropped his burden on the stairs and went down to answer it, Evelina usually took her time. It might be an emergency. But it was only Sally, hatless as usual, despite the weather, the fur collar of her coat protecting her ears. “Sally!” he said, aghast. She looked at him a moment. “You’d forgotten!” she charged him. “I can’t believe it!” He said, “Look here, Sally, I—well, I’ll have to admit it, I’ve had a sort of haywire day. I did forget.” Her black eyes were disconcerting, they were angry and they were amused. She permitted the amuse- ! ment to win. She said, “Kim, you , are the limit. Run along and brush your hair and put on your face or | whatever it is that young men do when about to take a gal to the I movies. I’ll wait.” When he hesitated, ver so little, when she saw his eyes go to the books and magazines lying in their huddle on the steps she said sharply, “I won’t let you off. ... I broke another engagement.. if you think I’m going home to .widdle my thumbs. . .” Jonathan turnea ana went up the stairs. He called back over his shoulders, “All right. But U probably be bad company.” “You usually are, she said serenely. “I don’t know why I bother with you." She was smiling looking after him. He was, she decided, wander- | , ing aimlessly through the living room, looking without interest at i the magazines, peering in the sectional bookcase at the old novels, the most difficult man she had ever i met; the most indifferent. She . wondered if he had ever been in i love. When such a man fell in love he would be* incalculable . . . and [ much more exciting than the aver- . age man one met, easy tinder to the , curious flame.... She went on into his consulting room, her small nose . affronted by the slightly medical i odor, and looked about her. On the , old desk there was a snapshot, set , in an ill-fitting little frame. She i picked it up and looked at it. It was of Rose Ward, taken outside her house after the bad January blizzard. Rose looked as round as an i apple bundled into heavy ski suit and galoshes. Her knitted ioque was on one side, she was laughing, her eyes slanted against the sun. (To be continued) Copyright by Faith BaiJwln. Distributed by King Features Syndicate, Ine,
