NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY By Beatrice Burton CHAPTER IX G*~~J LORY listened to Lola and Dick go downstairs together ■■ ...i Then, In a little while, she heard Bill’s voice calling to her from the lower hall. “Nighty-night, Glory?!” he bawled at the top of his lungs. “Sorry Lola crabbed your party!” Glory laughed. “She didn’t crab It . . . every body ought to have a hot time at a house-warming, anyway!” she called. “Good night, old timer! ... Good night, Lola!” . . . Then she heard the sound of Bill’s wheezy old car backing out of the driveway. “Asthma,” Bill called his car. What a nice old thing Bill was In spite of nis, drinking and his cardplaying! After a.l. it was probably Lola’s fault that he acted the way he did! . . . A pretty woman who knew how to "vamp” a man could make him do anything under the sun that she wanted him to do! . . . But Lola had lost all interest in “vamping” Bill or looking pretty for him ... t?o of course she had lost him! No man wanted to sit around a house alone while his wife spent every minute bathing and feeding and rocking three children, either! .... What a poor simp Lola was! * * * H'l ALF asleep, Glory went on thinking. . . . Stan Wayburn’s good-look-ing face floated into her mind. She wondered if Stan had kissed Myra Gail to give her a “thrill” .... or because he had wanted to kiss her. . . Myra wasn’t so awfully alluring. But she had a way with her, at that! And she knew a lot about books, and plays and things. . . . Glory fell asleep. She was awakened by Dick's voice. “Glory! Wake up!” he was saying. "Maggie’s having a brainstorm down in the kitchen. . . . Says she’s going back to Mother’s house tonight. Have vou said anything to hurt her feelings? ... If you have, for the love of Mike, go down and beg her pardon. . . . Glory! Glory!” He shook her again. But Gloria was fairly drugged with sleep and alcohol. Dick shook her again. She opened her topaz eyes. "What In the world are you screechln about? Leave me along!” she said crossly. , Dick lifted her out of bed and set her on the rug In her bare feet. , “Put on your slippers and kimono and run down to Maggie,” he said “She’s going home tonight, she save. ... If you want a maid, you’d better go and stop her!” Glory went downstairs. In the kitchen Maggie was strapping a bulging suitcase. She had put on her hat. Her coat was thrown over a chair. “Now where do you think you’re going in the middle of the night?” Glory asked. • • AGGIE glared at her. “That’s my business!” she i_J snapped. “But I can tell vou one thing, Mrs. Gregory! . . . I’ll not be stopping another night In a house like this! Women drinking and smoking and carrying on right in front of my eyes. . . . Liok at yourself! Hardly able to etanl!” It was true that Gloria oouk. hard-

"I've kept myself to myself for forty-five years, and no cheap actor Is going to chuck me under the chin, my lady! Let me tell you ✓that!" "Who chucked you under the chin?” Glory asked sweetly. "Oh, that actor .. . that Mr. j Smart Aleck, the one you call ‘Stan’,” Maggie answered. She tossed her head. "Oh, Maggie, it must have been accidental ! I’m sure he didn't mean to do it!" Glory said. She laughed in spite of herself. The thought of Stan Wayburn chucking the elderly Maggie under her fat chin was too funny! "Well, anyway I’m going.... and I'm going tc night!" Maggie declared. She began to put on her coat. "Oh, Maggie, you wouldn’t leave me to clean up this mess of a house all alone, would you?” Glory was on the verge of tears. The kitchen table was filled with sticky glasses. The sink was piled high with plates waiting to be washed. Some salad dressing was splashed against the wa11.... And Gloria knew that the rest of the house was littered with clgaret ashes and stubs, with wilted flower petals, and all the rest of the sordid souvenirs of a "wild" party. "I’m sure It's not my fault that the house Is a mess! It was as neat as anew pin this afternoon... .and should be, now,” Maggie said In her most dignified manner. ‘‘Mr. Dick’s mother gives dinner parties, but her house never looks like this -when they’re over, let me tell you!....She knows how to entertain!”
Maggie picked up her coat, hat and traveling bag, just as Dick came into the kitchen. "Wait a minute, Maggie,” he said, quietly attempting to take the bag from her hand. "No, Mr. Dick,” replied Maggie, trying to pull away from him. “I am going. I will not stay in this house another night.” “If you've really made up your mind to go back to Mother’s house I’ll drive you over,” Dick said. “You can’t go walking around the town at this hour of night alone.” He started to go back into the hall for his hat and coat. But Gloria barred his way. She threw her arms across the door. “Dick Gregory, you must be crazy!” she said. “Here’B this woman leaving me at a moment’s notice —and you actually upholding her in what she’s doing to me!” Dick stooped and kissed his angry little wife. Then he gently pushed her out of his way. “Run upstairs, Littlest!” he said quietly. "Don’t be afraid here by yourself. . , M I’ll be back In te*n minutes.” • • • Cold with anger. Glory climbed the stairs through the silent house. She hegrd the hum of Dick’s roadster as it swung down the street. The clock In the hall downstairs began to chime * * * one, two, three, four! Four o’clock! In another four hours Dick would he wanting his breakfast. And no Maggie here to get it for him! . . . Well, let him go without breakfast! It would serve him right! He had been so ready to take Maggie back to his mother’s house . . . let him see how he liked getting along without her! For Gloria had made up her mind she would not get breakfast. She would not sweep and dust. She certainly would not wash greasy- dishes. m m '

In a word, she would not work! "If I ever start drudging around the house. I’ll have my mother's life all over again. , . And I'd rather be dead!” she told herself. She looked at her pink-tipped hands with her shiny nails. Then she thought of her mother's. How rough and calloused they were!

Glory turned on the reading lamp. Then, from a drawer In her bedside table she took several small bottles and Jars. Sho dipped a wad of cotton into almond oil and wiped all the powder from her skin with it. With another wad she patted her face lightly with witch hazel. Then she rubbed muscle oil under her eyes and around her mouth.... the places where lines first begin to show themselves. Her skin was as soft as a fresh-laundered baby’s. After that she turned out her light. And slept like a baby. * • * When Dick returned every light In the house was blazing. He went around from room to room snapping them out. The house reeked with the smell of stale tobacco smoke and gin. Dick threv' open a window In the sun room and let in the clean, cold night air. Then he went upstairs He stood for a long time looking down at his sleeping wife. Her dark lashes lay In a shadow on her cheeks. Her mouth was like a scarlet flower against that warm white skin of hers. She looked as pure 'as some old Italian master’s picture of an angel! How had she happened to ask that fellow Wayburn to the house-warming, Dick wondered for the hundredth time. How well did she knew him? And was it really Wayburn whom Dlclc had seen leaving his bouse a few days ago? Or had Glory told the truth when she said

There are 732 cow testing stations in the United States, our Agricultural Bureaus tells us. They divide them into three sections, northern southern, and western. Each section has a different number of stations. In fact, 14 times the northern stations equals 16 times the southern and 21 times the western stations. How many cow testing stations are there is each of these sections?

And this time, he would not let her put him off! No matter what the truth was. he would have it, by Jove! • • • I L _ J HEN Glory awoke In the l |\jy morning the room was full of 1 v sunshine. She stretched luxuriously like a cat. Then she got up on one elbow and looked around her. Dick’s bed was empty. The covers were flung over the foot of It to let It air. She supposed Dick had left for the office without waking her to say goodby. ... He knew how she loved to sleep until noon. She wondered where he had had his breakfast. ... The thought of breakfast made Gloria realize how very hungry she was. She got out of bed. She would bathe and go down-town to eat. And then she would go to the employment agency to hire a maid. . . . The mere thought of the disorder downstairs sickened Glory. What a horrible job housework was . . . eternally making dirty things clean! Dirty dishes, dirty clothes, dirty floors and walls. . L While her bath was filling Glory did her exercising. She touched the floor a hundred times with her finger tips. She got down on the rug to do her “bicycle” exercises. She stood up nn dwent through tho head movements that keep the ,face young. . . Her head ached j terribly, but she did not falter. This was the way to remain beautiful!

They went out on the bleak mountain sides and lived In tents through a terrible winter, With the temperature below zero, with eighteen Inches of snow on the ground. They tied their feet In gunny sacks and lived lean and lank and hungry as timber wolves. They received sixtythree cents a week strike benefit. One night after I came In from the field where I had been holding meetings, a loud knock came on my door. I went to the door, opened It, and faced a military chap. “The Colonel wants you up at headquarters.” Ordered From State I went Immediately. Three or four others were brought In: War John and Joe Pajammy, organizers. We were all taken down to the Santa Fe station. The militia took us to La Junta. They handed me a letter from the Govermv, notifying me that under no circumstances could I return to the State. I sat all night In the station. In the morning the Denver train came along. I had no food, no money. I asked the conductor to take me to Denver. He said he would. “Well.” I said. "I don’t want you to lose your Job.” I showed him the letter from the Governor. He read It. “Mother,” he said, “do you want to go to Denver?” “I do,” said I. “Then to hell job,” said he. "It’s to Denver you go.” Writes to Governor In Denver I got a room and rested a while. I sat down and wrote a letter to the Governor: “Mr. Governor, you notified your dogs of war to put me out of the State. They complied with your In structions. I hold In my hand a letter that was handed to mo by one of them, which says 'under no circumstances return to this State.' I wish to notify you. Governor, that you don’t own the State.

He was used to acting under orders. her alone,” counseled the reporter. “There la no more patriotic citizen In America.” From Denver I went down tho western slope, holding meetings. ! cheering and encouraging thoso tolling and disinherited miners who were fighting against such monstrous odds.
