PART FOUR CHAPTER ll—Continued. * • • Sabre said the letter was the most frightfully pathetic document he | could ever have Imagined. Smudged, he su'd, and stained and badly expressed, as if the writer—this Effle Bright—was crying and Incoherent with distress when she wrote It. She said she’d got a little baby. Sabre said It was awful to him the way she kept on In every sen- ; tenee calling It ’a little baby’—never a i child, or just a baby, but always 'a little | baby,’ ‘my little baby.’ He said It was awful. She said it was born In December—you remember, old man. It was the previous March she’d got the sack : from them—and that she'd been living jin lodgings with it, and that now she was well enough to move, and had come I to the absolute end of her money, she was being turned out and was at her wits’ i end with despair and nearly out of her ; mind t( know what to do and all that kind of thing. She said her father wouldn't have anything to do with her. and no one would have anything to do with her—so long as she kept her little baby. That was her plight; no one would have anything to do with her while , she had the be by. Her father was wllli ing to take her home, and some kind people had offeree to take her into service, ! but only, all ts them, If she would give : up the baby and put It out to nurse ; somewhere; and she said, and underlined it about fourteen times. Sabre said, and ' cried over it so you could hardly read It, she said; ‘And, oh, Mrs. Sabre, I can't I can’t, I simply cannot give up my little baby. . . . He's mine.’ she said. 'He looks at me, and knows me. and stretches out hts tiny little hands to me, and I can't give him up. I can't let my little baby go. Whatever I've done, I'm his mother and he's my little baby and 1 can't let him go.’ “Sabre said It was awful. I can believe It was. I'd seen the girl, and I'd 1 seen her stooping over her baby and 17 can well believe awful was the word for It. Poor soul. “And then she raid—l can remember this bit—then she said, ‘And so, in my terrible distress, dear Mrs. Sabre, I I am throwing myself on your mercy, and begging you, imploring you, for the love of God to take in me and my little baby and let me work for you and do anything for you and bless you and ask God's blessing forever upon you and teach my little baby to pray for you as something or other. I forget. And then she said a lot of hysterical things about working her fingers to the bone for Mrs. Sabre, and knowing she was a wicked giri and not fit to be spoken to by anyone, and was willing to sleep In a shed In the garden and never to open her mouth, and all that sort of thing; and all the way through ‘iny li'tle baby,’ 'my little baby.' Also she said, and Sable told me this bit deliberately, also she said that she didn't want to pretend sh Was more sinned against than sinning, but that if Mrs. Sabre knew the truth she might Judge less harshly and be more willing to help her. Yes, Sabre told me that • • • “All right. Well, there was the appeal, 'there was this piteous appeal,’ a* Sabre said, and there was Sabre profoundly touched by it, atid there was his wife bridling over it—one up against le-r has band who'd always stuck up for the girl, d’you see, and about two million up in Justification of her own opinion of her. There they were; and then Sabre said, 'Well, what are you going to do about it 5’

“You can Imagine his wife's tone. ‘Do j about it! Do about It! What on earth do you think I'm going to do about it?’ “She was furicrus. Absolutely white and speechless with fury; but not speechless long. Sabre said, and I dare bet she wasn't. Sabre said she worked herseif up in the most awful war and used language about the g!rl that, cut him like a knife—language like speaking of the baby as ‘that brat.’ It made him wince. It would—the sort of chap he Is A _ d h< said that the more she railed, the more frightfully he realized the girl's position, up against that sort of thing everywhere she fumed. “He described aTT that to me and then, so to speak, he stated his case. ‘Well, wuat 1 say to you. Hapgood, is Just precisely what I said to my wife. I f*’lt that the girl had a rlaim on us. In the ! first place, she'd turned to us in her ab- \ ject misery for help and that alone es- ' tabllsfced a claim, even If it had come from an utter stranger. It established a I claim because here was a human creature j absolutely down and out come to us, j picking us out from everybody, for sucI cor. Damn it, you've got to respond. ; You're picked out. You! One human ! creature by another human creature. Brea'hing the same air. Sharing the ; same mortality. Responsible to the same : God. You've got to! You can't help yourself. “'Well, napgood,' he went on, ‘that's ! one claim the girl had on us, but she * had another, a personal claim. She’d been

for the sake of getting his mind off from my silly extravagance! I hated myself!” And then Jack discovered the dessert plates. ‘‘Plates to match?” he asked and this time he did not smile. “Aren't they perfectly glorious?” I cried out. “See! Now wouldn’t you think them all alike? But they are not! Theyre different! No two alike! That's why they’re so expensive! Mary Smith has a dozen of them. I knew you'J want me to have things as nice as Mary's. But I bought only six!" By getting Jack to admire the many designs, I expected to keep him from ask.ng the price of the plates. lie did not Inquire, but ue must have done some figuring, for he exclaimed: “Gosh? ought to be earning more money!” “Wouldn't that be grand!” I agreed. ‘‘l ought to. At my age!” Jack isn’t often dismal. I comforted hi.tn: “You mustn't blame yourself, dear! Not even if some of th eboys are earning 110.000 a year and more. Os course it would be awfully nice if we could have a car this summer. “But some of the boy* didn’t go to the war. And that set you back awfully. Just as you had started, too. And now this business depression. But the slump won’t last forave-. And we'll manage to get along, until times improve !'* My comfort didn’t seem to do my hustaucb good. “Os course, some day," I added, “you're going to be a rich man!” Jack gave me the queerest look. I didn't understand it. But it made me feel chilly all over. He seemed to say that he didn't care whether or not, he ever was a rich man. And I positively shiver to think we may be poor all our days!—Copyright, 1922. (To Bo Continued.)

in our house, in our service; she was our friend; sat with us; eaten with us; talked with as; shared with us; and now, turned to u“ Good God, man, was that to be refused? Was that to be dented?’ “It seems that, if you please, the very next day the girl herself follows up her letter by walking into the bouse. In she walked, baby and all. She'd walked all the way from Tidborough, and God knows how far earlier in the day. Sabre said she was half dead. She’d been to her father's house, and that terrific-looking old Moses had turned her out. He'd take her—he had cried over her, the poor crying creature said—ls she'd send away her baby, also if she'd say who the father was, but she wouldn't. ‘I can't let my little baby go.’ she said. Sabre said It was awful, hearing her. “His wife said, ‘You're determined?’ ; “He said, ‘Mabel’ (that's her name) | I’m desperately, poignantly sorry, but I'm absolutely determined.' | "She said, 'Very well. If she’s going I to be in the house. I'm out of it. I'm i going to my father's. Now. You'll not j expect the servants to stay in the house . while you've got this—this woman liv--1 ing with you—(Yes, she said that.) ’So I shall pay them up and send them off, i now, before I go. Are you still deter- | mired ?’ "The poor devil, standing there with ■ his stick and bis game leg, and his face working, said, ‘Mabel, Mabel, bej Here me, it kills me to say it, but 1 am absolutely. The girl s got no home | She only wants to keep her baby. Sh j must stop.’ "Ills wife went off to the kitchen. “In about two hours his wife cam* back dressed to go. She said. 'There’s only one more thing I want to say te you. You say this woman—•’ (this worn an. you know!’ old Sabre said when he was telling me.) ’You say this woman has a claim on us?’ “He began. 'Mabel, I do. I—' “She said. ‘Do yon want my answer ,to that? My answer is that perhaps she has a claim on you" j “And she went.” 111. “Well, there you are. old man. That's the story. That’s the end. There he is, and there's the girl, and there's the baby; and he's what he says he Is — what I told you; a social outcast, beyond the pale, ostracized, excommunicated. No one will have anything to do with him. They've cleared him out of the office, or as good as done so. He says the man Twvnlng worked that The mfln Twyning—that Judas Iscariot chap, Is very thick with old Bright, the girls' father. Old Bright pretty naturally thinks his daughter has gone back to the man who is responsible for her ruin ai.d this Twyning person—wrote to Sabre and told him that, although he personally didn't believe it—not for a moment, old man,' he wrote—still Sabre would appreciate the horrible scandal that had arisen, and would appreciate the fact tb !t such a scandal could not be permitted in a 'firm like theirs with , its high and holy church connections. He Fald that he and Fortune had given the position their most earnest and sym- , pathetic thought and prayers—and prayers, mark you—and that they'd come to

the concluHi n that the best thing to be don was for Sabre to resign. “Sabre says he was kn . ki-d pretty well silly 1 y this step. He says It was his first r. ilizatinu of the attitude that everybody was going to take up against him. “Well, I said to him, Wes, that's all rigtit, Pah re. Where’s this going to end? Where’s it going to land yon? It's landed you pretty lb-rcely as it Is. Wlnt are you doing about it?’ “He said he was writing round, writing to advertisers and to societies und places, to find a place where the girl would be taken in to work and allowed to have her baby with her. Hr said there must tie hundreds of kind hearted people about the plaee who would do it; it was only a question of finding them. Well, as to that, kind hearts are more titan coronets and all that kind of thing, but it strikes me they're a jolly side harder than coronets to find when it comes to a question of an unmarried mother and her baby, and when the kind hearts, being found, come to make inquiries and find “I (shall Pay Them I p and Send Them Off Bnfore I Go.” that the person making application on (he girl's behalf is the man she's apparently living with, and the man with Sabre's extreordinary record in regard to the girl. I didn't say that to poor old Sabre. All that chain of circumstances, eh? Went out of his way to get her first job. Got her into his house. In a way responsible for her getting the sack. Chiid born just about when it must have been born after she's been sacked. Girl coming to him for help. Writing to his wife, ’lf only you knew the truth.' Wife leaving him. Eh? It’s pretty fierce, Isn't it? I don't believe he realizes for a moment what an extraordinary coil it all is. God help him if he ever does. He'll want it. “No, I don’t say a wmrd like that to him. I said, “What do you suppose your wife’s thinking all this time?” “He said his wife would be absolutely all right once he'd found a home for the girl and sent her away. “I said. Tl’m.

ATTENDANCE IS MUCH GREATER THAN EXPECTED Delegates From Twenty-One Countries at pan-American Conference. BY CONSTANCE DREXEL BALTIMORE, April 22—The PanAmerican conference of the League of Women Voters which opened here Is so much bigger than was expected they haven’t even had time to taka the signs down. That is, when it was found the big ballroom of the Htoel Belviedere, which is the convention headquarters, would not accommodate even the morning sessions, the Baltimore women In charge were obliged to scour the city for something big enough. The only thing they could find was th* Century Theater roof which is used at night for dancing and a cabaret show. There was no time to make changes except to place chairs on the huge dancing floor. Therefore delegates were greeted this morning by huge signs at the entrance "It is unlawful to bring Intoxicating liquors in this building." The women from the Latln-Amerioan countries could not believe their eyes and Lady Astor will see at least one evidence of prohibition. Over the stage today hung a silk Mexican flag which has been sent Ky President Obregon to be presented to Independence Hall in Philadelphia. The Mexican delegation of four women was quite the hit of the day. They looked rather different from the other South American, many of whom are of the handsome Spanish type. The Mexican women were dark-skinned, heavy-featured anil not so tastefully or richly dressed as tho others, but when Senorita Elena Torres got up to speak even though in halting English, her earnestness in the struggle for light and truth was Immediately apparent. Lika all the rest of the Latin-Amerlcan delegates, she was called upon to speak on education in her country. She said both people and government realized | education to be the crying need of the country. Many teachers are using their Sundays to teach voluntarily among the. ! people unable to go to school. | The platform was filled with the delej gates from all twenty-three countries ! of the western hemisphere, among which | they have included Haiti. Porto Rico and : th* Philippines. Best known among them in Dona Bertha Lutz, official delegato from Brazil, and Mme. Jaime de Veyra, ‘ wife of the Philippine commissioner to ; t£e United States. i Perhaps most people may be wonderi leg what on earth the. South and North ' American women can find to talk about that everybody would understand. It seems the originators of the conference solved the problem very nicely by simply turning the three plays into round table conferences on women's subjects, led by the women who handle these questions for the United States Government. Therefore, It was children welfare on* morning ani education in the afternoon The next day it will be women In Industry and prevention of traffic in women, i It is a comparison of notes, so to speak, the women of various countries telling what they are doing about things in which women are particularly Interested. Having the sessions in charge of United States Government officials was a brilliant Idea lr. more ways than one. For one thing, tte officers of tfce League of Women Voters who engineered this conference are being spared for their annual [ convention next week. ! Two round table conferences were in l charge of Grace Abbott, chief of the j children's bureau, U. S. Department of i Labor, and Julia Abbott, of the Bui reau of Education, U. S. Department of : the Interior. A particularly iteresting note was rung on the child welfare subject by Mrs. Vernon Kellog, who told of the second international conference on child welfare, held in Brussels last summer. Dona Bertha Lutz hoped the United Stares would be represented at the third conference to take place in Rio Janeiro lute this summer preceding the Brazilian exposition in which the United States wil participate. On the subject of education Mrs. William Lucas of San Francisco was th* only on* of the United States participating besides Miss Abbott. All day the stage belonged to Latin America and to Canada. The Pan-American conference was opened by Mrs. Maude Wood Park, president of the League of W men Voters, who welcomed the pan-Americans to the United States. There was an invocation by his grace, the Most Reverend Michael Curley, archbishop of Baltimore, and welcomes from the women of Maryland Iv Mrs. C. E. Eilicott, front the PanAmerican Union by Dr. L. S. Rowe, from Maryland by Governor Richie and from Baltimore from Mayor Rroening. In the evening the national board received in the ballroom of the Belvedere la honor of the pan-American delegates.— Copyright, X 922, by Public Ledger Company.
