LAMPERE'8 PLOT
JUDITH LANE, slightly astonished
jat tho change CI la Sanfnrd had
evokou in ner appearance wuu rui-
lies, peach powder and rouge, stared
into tho stateroom mirror and di
gested the fact that the girl who
practically owned this yacht (Big
Tom's Interest was merely paying
maintenance bills) hopod to marry
Nurinan Dale-.
And then her attention was rude
ly switched from her own personal
feelings to concern over her chief.
''It happened ihls way." Clla sot
tied Into a deep chair and lighted a
clgoratta with a deliberation which
Judith recognized as a forerunner
of somotlilng Important.
"I.otty Canlield decided to take a
post graduate course In matrimony,
and I was sent over to Ilia court
house to cited: on her first mistake.
It was closing tlmo, but I slipped In
and promised to latch tho door when
1 left. You know how those tiles
aro, don't you? If over I want to
commit murder I'll hldo the victim
In there and go free His rest of my
days.
"I was back of one tending to Lot
ty's business when 1 heard voices.
I peaked around and found that Mor
t,n Lampero and Judge Marltcllan
null shlnnlcd In through the crack
oi tho door und wcro doing n confi
dential. ,"Tlioy looked so guilty I felt duty
bound to Mud out what llioy wore
talking about. This was it. Lam
IHiro was trying to force .Marltellan
U get Boiuo frlci'd of his In Itio Mur
' county to Issue an injunction against
tho Bale of any additional dam prop
erty to your boss."
"Oil. . . ." Judith had forgotten
Norman, tho yacht, her lovely frock.
Sho was tho stenographer ready to
not as a tnodiuni between Uig Tom
and a danger which threatened his
dam.
"Hut, Clin, I'm suro he bought all
that was necessary; bought tho da;
site from the State for delinquent
axes last winter, and the limitation
date bus already passed, so they
'can't question his ownership ot that.
"At the samo time lie bought all
land desoiied by tho lioincsccklii
owners, or delinquent tuxes. In
order to protect those very home
soeiicrs. uter the Irrigation Is
available they may have ihelr laud
buck, providing they will live on It
und cultivate It, by simply paying
what Dig Tom paid tho Stale."
woulcln t Lampero know all or
Hint?"
"Of course ... I have It." Judith,
vliu had sal down opposite her
filend. arose, "lis I hi' new dam . .

To Attend ,
Conference
Many La Grande women are plan'
nlriK to drive to Wand City tomorrow
to attend the Home-makers comer
enco being held by a group of ex-
tendon workers from Oregon State
colli'KO under the direction of Miss
Clnrlbel Nye, stute leader of home
economics extension. Tho conference
begins at 10 o'clock In the mornlnt!
nnd will continue throughout the day
"When I wasa girl." observed
Clla. with tho affectation of an ancient-
crone, "my hostess escorted
me "
"Times and hostesses have
changed," laughed Mrs. Dale, but
there was apology in her voice, "so
under tho circumstances - come
along."
The hostess met them on the main
deck and propelling Judith gently
along by a dollcato pressure op hor
arm, came to a stop on tbo after
deck where the crowd bad gathered.
"Folks," Mrs. Huvins' volco was
gonial, friendly, "1 want you to meet
Tom's stenographer. Miss Lano.".
"Having been catalogued," ob
sorved Clla, laughing, "suppose you
come along over here and sit with
tho only other working girl aboard."
Judith followed Clla, slightly be
wildered, whllo the crowd laughed
good-naturedly. Judith noticed Nor
man was in on deck, nor was lllg
Tom. Sho sank Into n wicker chair
which was pushed out from some
wboro, and then saw Norman ap
proaching, an exquisitely lovely, girl
smiling up Into his face.
Tbo girl accepted a chair, direct-
I opposlto Judith's nnd she noticed
with a start that this was Matlillo
llovlns, a Matlillo who had changed
tromendously: since she: had last
seen hor.
Hor eyes, artfully Bhadnwcd,
scorned dark Instead of pale blue,
bonoath the crown ot platinum hair.
Shi. wore a dark bluo organdy, cut
on exaggerated isallopsult linos with
sllvor braid and buttons for trim
ming. It was unquestionably smart.
TUDITI1 sought for a simile to ex
press mo ciinugo in llio plump,
dowdy girl sho had known and the
gently rounded, beautifully sophis
ticated ono beforo her. Sho and It.
Sho was as Ulfferont ns tho Tilly Iter
(alitor had once called her, was dif
ferent from tho Mulhlle ho called
hor now when be didn't forget.
Norman scaled himself near Jud-
lli, a proprietory nlr about 111 in
which caused tho Ucvlns eyes to
narrow,
"Miss Lnno," sho began with a
patronizing noto In tier. -voice, "you;
look badly. Hns father been sork-
tig you too blird, or bavo you been
llotlng for tho formor fashionable
liguroV" ,' l :- ;
"Forced dialing," harked Tom
llovlns who had come up behind
Judith, "uli of us were. Wo found
tbo natives down there about
starved and Uila child," with a foud
pal or Judith's bond, "slipped her
poor sharo to the kids."
"Itcully. tell us about the trip,
(Oiss Lnno." suggested someone.
"Help!" gasped Matlillo delicate
ly, "nut IJml. I'vo been bored with
tales or surveying trips over since
I can remember."
"You wouldn't Itavo been bored
with this one. or on It either," hor
fallter suggested, cnni'ortnbiy. "Wo

used to send you scurrying under
the bed "
Tilly Hushed scarlet and llio crowd
honied at tho Idea or llio clegnut

"Peculiar how danger brines otll
the prhniilvo in us," remarked some
one. "Danger." retorted Mnlhllc.' hor
volco lirlltle, "brings out a lot or

Judith's ees were no longer grey,
they were hlue-btuck with anger.
She looked at Norman, ho was smil
ing easily, as though amused at Hie
story, then she looked at Clla.
The gill's red lips had purled lo
show thu gleam ot white teeth, her
ii i; n ro seemed vihrallug with anger,

lllled wlih laughter.
"My word. Miss nevlns." she
chuckled, "one might almost think
