" When a Girl " By ANN I.ISLE A New, Romantic Serial Dealing With the Absorbing Problem of a Girl Wife CHAPTER CCLXXXIV (Copyright, 1919, King Feature Syndicate, Inc.) My ankle Kept me housed for only a few days. Following the new theor ies, the doctor strapped it up tightly with adhesive plaster, so the torn ligaments would be held in place. He made we walk a little bit each day in order to keep the bandaged j ankle from stiffening. As news doesn't travel very fast among our friends, I was almost ready to be up and about again before people found out that I had been sick. I had a pretty lonely time of it—and how 1 did miss the wine jellies and cup custards that woulld have come pour ing in on the household at home! So I was particularly glad to see Virginia when she came dashing in the very morning that the doctor pronounced me ready to go out for a nice drive in the park. "I'm so sorry. I didn't know. What can I do for you Anne?" asked Virginia contritely, coming over to the couch where I lay trying to get up ambition enough to obey the doctor and to go out for a drive. She stooped and kissed me, laying a wonderful sheaf of late roses in my hand as she spoke. I tried to keep down my pUjue and to act like a grown woman instead of the hurt child I felt. Jim had been too ousy to give me any time during the long day, and after that lirst evening of kindness Val had disappeared from my ken, telephoning now and then to inquire how X was, but too much immersed in her own concerns to do more than that. "It's very sweet of you o come," I said, conscious of the absurd trem bling of my lips. "Poor kiddie," said Virginia, stoop ing to kiss me. "Why didn't you send for me? Phoebe just heard of your dreadful experience this morning. Neal's been out of town, you know. These have been ugly days, haven't they, dear?" Virginia's sympathy and under standing astonished me. And when it lasted all through the day I could hardly believe I wasn't running a fever and imagining things In my <lc lerium. She stayed with me until late afternoon and then rushed off post-haste —to avoid Jim, as I very well knew. Hardly had she departed when Car lotta arrived, bringing some of the latest books and magazines and a wonderful box of marrons. And then Phoebe and Xeal came, plus a big box of candy and masses of flowers. When Jim came he found me holding court.. tali Eye on the Clock another minte, then recess — and lunch. The grown-ups haven't forgotten what that means.

"It's better for me than lying here J all alone for three days was," I said ! meaningfully. "Why. honey! You didn't want me I to stay home from business and hold ! your hand, did you?" bantered Jim. "No, but it's been pretty lonesome, and 1 had too much time to remem ber that dreadful interview with Dick West." "Poor kiddie, that was a night mare of an evening! But it's all over and no harm done—no harm, that is, as Jong as 1 go down to business each day and light West. But there might be some damage if I sat here holding your hand, as you doubtless think a devoted hus band should." "There was a suggestion of irrita tion in Jim's voice, though he knelt by the couch as he spoke and gath ered me into his arms. But his caress was automatic instead of tender. "To-day wasn't bad at all. It was nice," 1 said, glad that I could re assure Jim as to the state of my feelings, even if it wasn't he who had brightened them. "Virginia came and was so adorably sweet and kind I thought at first I was dreaming it all." "When Virginia chooses," com mented Jiin dryly, "she can be very charming." "There was a little girl and she had a little curl right in the middle of her forehead, and when she was good she was very, very good, and when she was had she was horrid.' " I chanted adding coaxingly: "But Virginia would be sweet always if only she were nappy, Jim. And don't you think she'd be happier if you were to phone and thank her for her kindness to me?" "Perhaps. But that theory isn't going to be tested," replied Jim, curtly. "Please, dear," I persisted. "Please. There's a very special reason why you should. Maybe you haven't stopped to realize it, but Jeanie doesn't know yet that Put has bought the old Harrison place and put it in her name. She ought to know." "Who's going to tell Iter?" asked Jim. "You—you. of course, dear," I said quietly, twining my arm tightly around Jim. He ttung me off and got to his feet, limpihg slowly over to a chair on the other side of the room. His face worked and his eyes seemed to he looking on bitter fruit. "I wanted to buy the old place myself, you know." he said, at last. "Yes, 1 know. But Pat managed to get it. And he's put it in Jeanie's name. There's only one thing that can possibly mean Jim." "You think" began Jim, studying me through narrowing eyes. Then he Hung himself to his feet, smiling his dear, boyish smile. "Of course, Pat still cares. And her bitterness against Neal and Phoebe's happiness is because slie doesn't believe a man's love lasts. When she sees how it is with Pat, that must restore her belief in love —and make her happy. Make, her willing to let the kids be happy, too. We have you, Virginia have you just whore we want you. Of course I'll tell her. Anne. I'll 'phone and start the reconciliation stuff this instant."

Glenn, secretary of the Illinois Manufac turers' Association. The plan, ill short, is to shove business ahead an hour in the cities where the day light saving system is favored and "leave the clock alone." "There is no reason for any clash in this matter between the city and the country," said Mr, Glenn. "The city people like the plan of shoving the clock ahead one hour during the summer months because they can work to better advantage and also have an extra hour of daylight in the evening. The country people do not like it. Start Hour Karller "All that is necessary,he said, "is for us o start work one hour earlier and quit one hour earlier, if some of our big business organiza tions will take up this plan, it prob ably can be adopted. Perhaps the city government would help the move along by taking action that would affect Chicago. Other cities that want the plan could do the same. The daylight saving plan is a godsend to many In the cities who have little daylight for recreation under the old plan. "This plan could he adopted by mutual agreement wherever it is wanted. "In my office, for instance, the hours are from 8.30 to 5.30. If it is agreed that the extra hour of even ing is desirable, all we need to do is to make the hours from 7.30 to 4.30, which is just what we are do ing now. We do not need to change tile clock to do this. Street Cars Affected "We could agree to adopt tho changed schedule during the same months which are affected by the daylight saving law, or have it stand all the year, just as we wish. By this plan the city and the country could have their own plans, and each ought to be happy. I would like to see a move made to pei petuate the daylight saving plan in the city. It would be necessary for the street car and other transporta tion companies to move their rush hour schedules ahead if this plan were adopted, but few other changes would be necessary."

Russian soviet interests apparently are sup plying funds for a propaganda to stir up race antagonism in the United States, according to informa tion now in the hands of tlie De partment of Justice. Officials of tlie department say that charges of an organized pro paganda made in the House yester day by Representative Byrnes, Democrat, South Carolina, seemed to be well founded. Newspapers, they said, wore springing up over the country to spread the propa ganda and sow discord among the negroes. Agents of the Department of Jus tice are investigating. Facts thus far developed lead officials to be lieve that I. W. W. and soviet in fluence were at the bottom of the recent race riots in Washington and Chicago.
