Judith Lane hw JEANNE BOWMAN SYNOPSIS: CUa lanford ia In. terviewing Judith Lane, Tom Bevlna' eeoretary, at the "perfect stenographer." But Judith it even more interested in the fact that ' Norman Date, iunior partner of the law firm that handled flavins' bustneee, has driven her to the '' hotel. Norman aaka for Mother np- polntment; Judith telle him that the and Bevine are leaving eoon ' for the Rio Dtahlo dam In weal Texae, one of her employer' b'o engineering .profeate. Chapter Three THE INTERVIEW CLIA'S quick laugh caused several diners to look at the two girls "you would remind me I was sup posed to be working, Instead of en joying myself. Walt until I finish this salad and I'll begin on you. "There . . . now this Is the Idea. Someone at the Engineers' luncheon, today, said that the averse stenog rapher thinks that all iio needs to kold down a Job Is a Hollywood face and a Follies figure. "Fellow named Kline said It his office orcameut worked halt as hard on the typowrller. as she did on her face, both her face and his letters would look better. He said there couldn't be a perfect stenographer fcdeause " "Yes, I know the rest," Inter rupted Judith. "Big Tom confessed his part also. I'm willing to admit I haven't the brains of an Elnateln, the patience of Job nor the endur ance of a Robot, but 1 must have considerable talent as an actress to make him think so." She laughed at the expression on Clla's face and added, "What else would you like to know?" : "How can a glr become a perfect stenographer." : "By following a simple, sevon worded rule." "What la it?" "Find an employer like Big Tom Bevlns." Cila was delighted with the an swer. "Anything you'd like me to say?" she asked. "I know nearly every detail of your checkered ca reer. I know how you wanted to become an engineer and wby you took up stenography. I know bow you took a shabby three-room attic that looked like a turret with an underslung Jaw and made It look like an up-to-date pent house, "Think I'll use that picture Cal took of your place last August . . . and then a close-up he took when he was testing out his new studio light." "CUa," Interposed Judith eagerly, "why not have your staff artist sketch a figure of a Robot with Einstein hair sitting under a gourd Tine, that's what Job sat under, . wasn't it? I'd much rather you wouldn't use my picture." JUDITH'S wUh was granted. Next morning with Big Tom chuck ling, they read Clla's story and dipped the cartoon from the news paper to be framed, then thoy turned to business. ' "Notify the expedition personnel to meet us at the Turning Basin, Pier 24, June 1st at six a.m. Bettor buy yourself a new pith helmet; Its going to be hotter than Hados. How about the cook's wife, will she go along? Fine. That will protect your reputation from the biddies . . . catch that telephone, Judy." "Bevlns Construotlon Company ... Oh good morning Mr. Dale, Mr. Bevlns? Yes, Indeed . . . I'm fine . . ." She handed the telephone to her employer then turned to her type writer "ratatat ratata ratatlngl" went the typewriter and ratatata went Judith's heart "That was Norman Dale, Judy," Interrupted Bevlns, "be phoned to say he'd make the trip to Rio Diablo with us, representing his firm, you know" ' "Norman Dale telephoned to say he waa making the trip to Rio Diablo with us." Three months, nearly four had passed since Tom Bevlns had looked across his desk to whore his stenog rapher sat typing, and relayed the telephone message. BEAUTY OPERATOR'S BODY IS RECOVERED PORTLAND, On.. March 14. (AP) The body of a young womnn, Iden tified M that of Dorothy Ondls Al len, 25, miulng beauty parlor em ploye, was recovered from the WIN THE FLAVOR Judith, a sun bronzed girl In khaki shirt and breeches, high boots and broad Lrlmmed campaign hat, thought of that moment many times as the red gold days which followed winged along. The trip was worse than Big Tom had anticipated. The Rio Diablo val ley had been held for two years In the tenacious grip of an unrelenting sun. The Devil River bad dwindled In size until It wound through Ha rock ribbed channel like a red hot wire. The plains cupped up like a copper brazier, bound by a far circle of red-gold hills. "TpHB native families were starving and the expedition, sharing ra tions brought In by occasional mult tralnB from the Quit coast, grew bone-thin and taciturn. And ai though the heat had burned the dross of artificial living from each, Judith watched a new Norman Dali emerge. She sat on the hillside now, watch ing him In the valley below. Thi fearful drouth was about to bi broken by a storm which might equal the drouth in its intensity. . Fear bung over the natives like a visible cloud, their cattle were low ing uneasily, the pack mules were fretful, even the expedition men, moving with swift offlclency as they mude ready to carry every movable thing 'to the one high spot within reach before the storm struck, . seemed oppressed. . Through it all Dale's voice could be heard, calm, ebecrfvl ,. . "MIm Lano," a smi'l hand tugged at her sloove. "You've been slttln' there and a thlnkln' and you haven't told the rest of the story. Y'sald the prince and Cinderella were married and then you atopped . . . what comes after?" . ' "I'm sorry," Judith's voice soft ened as she looked down Into the circle of eager faces peering Up at her. "The prince and Cinderella were married and lived happily ever after." ''Ever after?" piped the Binall one who had snuggled close as the black pall of clouds spread over them. "Ever after!" repeated Judith firmly and smiled at the tall figure below, who had started plodding up- hill behind a pack train carrying housohold goods. Last night, when a white moon had turned the valley to' Old gold, she had promised to spend her ever after with him. She had wanted to work at hla side now, but Big Tom had pointed out the necessity of keeping up the native children's morale and she had kept their eyes from the ap proaching danger by keeping them focused on herself as she told them stories. 'Top says this storm's goln' to be a hum-dlngor and we'll be lucky It any of us gits out nllve," offered a touslod haired boy on the outskirts of the circle. "You've lived here through other storms havon't you, Tommy?" in quired Judith, calmly. (Copyright, JMl. by Jeanne Bowman) Tomorrow, tho storm breaks. Inr.ictte river here todny.
