When ihey leiiru, by accident, that lie intends 'to adopt one of them uh iila daughter when the year 1b up, u battle follows for hiH affectloim. Hilly 1h unwillingly drawn Into the contest, and thin, together with her infatuation tor Dal Ko maliie, nephew ot MrH. Meadows, hired JiohIohh for the kIi.h, cuuhus her to neglect her violin. Through I everything hIui tenderly renieni- ber Clay CtirtlH, koii of lier bene taclor, who huu dlHinherlted him j .self and Jh boarding with Mra. j Wella In the poor part of the town, wot lung In the I ruiuaii factory In the day and writing music ut night. Dal Homaiue taken Hilly to a country house conducted by a Hin du and I there lie makes ardent love to her. Jin begs her to keep their rum unco a secret until the year Is up so as not to Interfere ,with Curl is' agreement. Hilly is poig nantly jealous when she learns that Winnie Ik going to meet Ho maiue. The same day, Italph Tru man lakes Hilly through his fa Ml; ei's automobile factory. She sees Clay before He is aware of her presence, and she Is hurt and shocked lo see Ills lliiu body bent over the hideously noisy machine, to see the face twisted In nervous a cony. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXXV Hilly stood on tiptoe and spoke into Ralph Truman's ear. "Leave me alone n bit with Clay, please, Ralph. I have something Import ant to way to him." She stood behind Clay, when Ralph had obligingly wandered away, wondering how to attract him, Ralph, watching her at a dis tance, sensed her problem and gave an order that caused the ma chinery on that Bide of the build ing to Htop functioning abruptly. Clay Curtis straightened his bent body nnd stared about hfm In slow ever heard! The song of toll. Your work 1b killing you because you light It, are out of itep " bile slopped, breathless, and before she could speak again, the switch was thrown, the great steel instru ments of Vulcan's orchestra began to periomi aguln. Clay turned back to his task, ills job was to feed strips of thin Bteel Into the teeth of a machine which bit nut pieces of It, and tipat them Into an endleits, running car rier. She moved so that she could see his face. When she had watch ed him before, she had flinched in sympathy with his nerves as his hands had flinched at their task his piano fingers feurlng and hat ing the steel teeth that bit so sav agely Into the strips of metal which he fed to (hem. She had known what he wan fearing thai those relentless, blind teeth would seize his fingers, snap them off, so that he could never play uguln. She saw that he was listening, incredulotiHly nt first, then with dawning wonder. His eyes grew sofl and wide with an almost child ish delight, the muscles of his thin, grease-marked face gradually stopped tw itching, IiIh hand lost Its feart uluess; almost mechanically, as if he had lost his horror of the ill lug, he guided the strip of steel into the Jaws that opened and closed rhythmically to receive it. "You're right!" he told her with his Hps, though she could not hear the words above the roar of the machinery. Ralph Truman joined them I hen, and Hilly lett clay to his worn, smiling upon him with such linger ing tenderness that Truman could not help noticing It. He was less eager, more silent, as ho conducted her tti rough the numerous other buildings of the factory, "Tired now, Hilly?'' he asked bo llcllously, after she had looked on in naive wouUer at lue assembling of an automobile engine In the great assembling plant of the fac tory. "Frightfully," she smiled at him. "In such a model factory I'm sure you have at lei noon lea. And I'm starved." "That shall be the next revolu tionary . Innovation In the Truman uutomohlie works," Ralph assured fjnily. "As a reward for the bngi.b idea, you shall have your lea now, it I have to make It my bewilderment. Then he turned, as I self. This Is the cafeteria, where employes are served at actual coat. Oh, Angle!" he raised his voice and shouted as he led Hilly Into a great, pleasant room, comfortably tilled with small whlte-topued ta bles. "YeS, Mr. Ralph!" A middle-aged woman hurried from the kitchen, MiiiuuuiiiiK iter hi hi ciieu wium if lo go lo investigate the trouble, and almost knocked Hilly off her feet. llhuik amazement was followed by a flash of joy in his black eyes. "Hilly!" "I came lo see you," she told him. "You look so ill, dear, so so torn with the noise." She had never called him "dear" before, I H Li with TWO OTHER FELLERS "lley. any ul you lelleis lost a wrench?" "Yen, me." ' "What's your name?" "Mike Connors." "You ain't the guy.

Arundel, pin no tune PhniiM in; and scarcely realized now that she had done so. , "It's driving mo crazy," he told her, drawing a deep, shuddering breath. "Noise, noise, clamor, bed lam, eight hours a day. 1 hear the dammed machines in my sleep. Can't hear anything else. I'm los ing my music can't write or play -but " ho brought himself up jerk "how are you. Hilly? lon't see much of you any more. Happy?" ".My, how polite we are!" she laughed at him, with u trace of her old impudence. "Don't 1 look happy?" "No," he told her bluntly. "You look as If you're burning up Inside with fever. And you've lost a lot of weight. Circles under your eyep, too. and your mouth looks tighter and older." "hord, what a wreck I must be!" she challenged him. but there was a break In her determinedly gay voice. "Hut 1 didn't come here to talk about me, Clay, 1 waul to talk about you. Let's hurry, before these machines mart roaring again. Look about you quick, Clay- She spread her arm to indicate the men who stood before their machines, conlenled. waiting plac idly tor the machinery to start up ! again. " "They don't look like nerv lous wrecks, as you do. And I've found out the secret. I'm ashamed 'of you u musician! lor having worked here so long without hav ing found it out for yourselt. When the current goes on again, 1 waul you to listen, dear, and see if you hear what I heard " "Infernal noise, trying to tear every nerve out of my body! "Clay answered her wiih passionate an ner. "Thai's what 1 hear, have heard every day for weeks' pron. "Tea, sir? Would the little lndy like cinnamon toast or French toast? And I've just been whipping 'some cream. Hot chocolate with whipped cream would be nice, sir." "It would!" Hilly laughed. "Cin namon toast, please. With oddles of cinnamon and sugar. Your secret is out, Ralph." She lowered her voice to a mocking whisper as Truman settled into a chair op posite her. "You keep Angle doesn't l lie name suit her to a T? lust lo imniner vonr lmlv friends fwhom you proudly conduct through the 'woiks . "I'll fire Angle for giving mo away!" Ho pretended to be angry. "Hut I'm delighted that you're hungry." Hilly laughed wholeheartedly, and was surprised at the sound. .She had not laughed with genu I hie enjoyment for weeks. It was odd that she and Dal so seldom laughed. With him she was tense, keyed to a terrific emotional pitch. either abysmally tragic or fever ishly ecstatic never just plain happy. In the comfortable, ordinary sense of the word. When the crisp, hot toast and the steaming chocolate came, Ralph watched her eat, his eyes filled with a tenderness and anxi ety that would have startled her out ot her precious hunger if she had caught t lie expression. "There that ought to 'flesh me tip quite a bit, as mother says." iiuty sigueii conienieuiy, wuen sne had finished her third piece of cin namon (oast and her second cup of chocolate. "Now 1 can talk to you." Ralph Truman lit a cigaret and studied the glowing tip of it for long minute before he went on. "Hilly, sweet child, tell me something, Don't coddle yourself so!"

MORE LIGHT, LESS CRIME Whei Chicago householders asked Morgan A. Collins, superin tendent of pollre. what Ihey could do toward checking the crime epi demic now afflicting their city, he replied: "Burglars rarely enter a home Where there Is a light burning. Leaving your home in total dark ness is an Invitation to the sneak thief." Such protection, It is estimated, would cost the average home less than SI a year.
