The Girl Who Had No Chance By MARION RUBINCAM
. Chapter 64 GREAT PLANS It took Ruth a week to get over the queer little feeling that came with Myra'a letter. For some time she had almost thought that Fhe was all over her love for Tim, and that she had built up her life again. She knew she was not happy. But then how could she be, when money was so hard to make, when her outlook was narrowed by the little town she lived In, when her progress, her "career" as she sometimes called it, was made slow because she had never had a chance! And too, there was the worry over her father's failing health and between her and her mother there was gradually growing a spirit of antagonism. One by one her old schoolmates were marrying. Though she was only 50. she had not even one devoted admirer to her credit, as the other girls would express it. Ruth, they said, was going to be an "old maid." But the girl did not care for this, i hough she was conscious of the comment. She went on about her work and built up her plans, and decided that men and love would have no part in her life. She had almost persuaded herself

"If I had money, I'd buy the farms for two miles each side of the new addition," she said once. "I've bought some ground," Langley confessed. "An abandoned farm, the owner refused to believe it would be worth anything. I've got all my money tied up in this." Then, when things got in shape, tlie

She was working now with the wealthiest men of her little town, and even with a few of the big landowners who formed the aristocracy of that section people owning big estates to which they came only in summer, people whose real life depended -not on Marketown, but on New York or Pittsburg, or Philadelphia. .

THE FORUM
It was the pleasure ot tne writer to attend a mass meeting Tuesday night, of the school patrons and township trustees of the various townships of Wayne county. This meeting was enjoyed very much besides being very instructive. Notwithstanding the fact that Mr. Williams was charged with not having plaved the game fair, most of the complaints given in were personal, except the general discussion which would point to a general public sentiment against him. With reference to the $300, which T understand the Farmers' Federation donated to the county, and which in some mysterious manner found its way into the general funds, and with reference to the manipulating of the county agent, would say that if Mr. Williams is not in a position to explain his action clearly to the public, he has placed himself in a position to be criticised, and in my estimation should not be considered as a candidate for the office which he seeks. The last talk of the evening was giv
en by Superintendent Hincs of the Cambridge City schools, who is also a candidate for county superintendent. In a general way the townships of Wayne county, outside of Jefferson, do not know of the school controversy which Jefferson township has just gone through and in this controversy i
as to the form of school government which we were to have, Mr. Hines played one of the most important parts, having attended all of the public meetings on both sides, with the exception of one, and not only attended, but took an active part. I could not help but be somewhat astonished at the position which Mr. Hines took Tuesday night in contradiction to the position which be held some two or thfee weeks ago with reference to the plan of management of the Randolph county school. The two points at issue in Hagerstown which were to be decided in our election were whether we would have a school controlled and financed according to the law known as the Greencastle Law, or whether eventually we would have a school governed and financed in accordance with the plan of the schools of Randolph county. I say, without fear of contradiction, that Mr. Hines left no stones unturned and presented every argument known to win in Jefferson township for the Greencastle plan, which of course was fair play, but in so doing he never presented one word of praise for our northern county, but vigorously attacked their policy, and to make the proposition strong told our good neonle that he knew whereof he was talking because he came from Randolph county. If Mr. Hines would have been kind enough to have presented a talk to our people as he presented to the mass meeting held Tuesday night, I feel sure that the results of the election in Jefferson township would have been very much different

from what, they were. Circumstances certainly alter cases. I am not standing unfor Mr. Williams except in so far as he Is honest and consistent, and I am not standing up for Mr. Hines except In bo far as he is honest and consistent, but why Mr. Hines has changed his mind so materially with reference to the Randolph county plan of operating their schools in a space of two or three weeks is beyond my comprehension, and I know that township trustees of Wayne county are going to weigh thi3 proposition in the scales of justice
and honesty before making their decision. ... It just occurs to me that a third or fourth candidate might not be the best solution for the Wayne county problem. ' . C. N. TEETOR.

But the plans dragged all that summer and fall. Meantime the war in Europe had started. It was scarcely felt in so c,uit and so far away a place as Marketown until suddenly foreign governments began wanting things made. They seemed to want everything chemicals, explosives, even shoe laces and leather belts. And then, that wir.ter, the Boom began. "And now," Langley said one evening as he sat at the living table in Ruth's home "now you'll see things start happening. Today I had a letter from New York, offering me the position or purchasing agent for some big French concern that has become part of tlq$ Government.
