This, our ' last year at the Evening High School, is rapidly drawing to a close and the climax of graduation is to be reached in a few daysj lVe have ' traveled a long hard road together to reach the heights that we are attaining. Despite many setbacks and handicaps we have been able to reach our set goal, that of graduating from high school. It seems but yesterday that we had our first class meeting. At that meeting you elected us, my fellow class officers and myself, to the highest honor that you could bestow upon us. You gave us the opportunity to serve our class and school in its activities. Since that time many events have occured. Wie have worried over such details as class dues, dances, year book and matters attendant to graduation. XVe have worked together to make the Class of '34 an outstanding one in the history of the Evening High School. VVe have tried to build up a spirit of friendliness and comradie among our classmates, during the year, we have succeeded in creating an atmosphere of comradeship such as has never been before attained. Now we have reached the heights of our school careers. Our teachers have declared us scholastically fit to receive our high school diplomas. XN7e have suc- ceeded in climbing another rung in our hopes for a finer education. The climb has been a hard one but each step upward was well worth the energy expended. XVe have reached a high spot in our lives. As our principal, Mr. Schmied, has often said, It is possible to do many things twice but graduating from high school is a grand feeling that can only be felt once. The publication of this book has been, despite many handicaps, a triumph. Its publication was made possible by the earnest co-operation of THE OYVL STAFF. I would like to take this opportunity to tender to them the heartfelt thanks of the graduating class. It would have been impossible to have this year book without their aid. Before us graduates lies our future. Some of us will continue studying in institutions of higher learning. Others will work and try to make this world a better place in which to live. Still others will forge ahead in the business world. No matter which road we take we will be better prepared for traveling it due to the knowledge that we have gained in the Evening High School. I hope that someday the Class of '34 will hold its class reunion and be able to number in its ranks many of my classmates who will have made their mark in the world. Let us not say farewell to one another but just shake hands and say, au revoir. GILBERT STRINER, President, Class of '34 Y Uelve THE OVVL Thirteen TREASURERS ADDRESS i ' UR High School term has been completed and I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the co- ! ! Class of '34. I operation that you extended to me as Treasurer of the VVe Seniors have built this year, perhaps better than we know, and have gone higher than many of our primary hopes. Vlfelded together in the spirit of co-operation, accomplishment has been ours to look back upon with real pride. The reward is ours to keep and remember as long as we will. I wish to congratulate you for your perserverance in achieving the goal which you set out to obtain. May this accomplishment tend to insure your being more ably equipped to tackle the obstacles which one meets in every day life. May your rememberances of the Evening High School be pleasant ones. Your friendship and help has truly meant much to me. You have all cheerfully endured deprivations to make this a prominent year. My sincere thanks are also tendered toward my staffg as fine a set of characters as I have ever known. Allow me to again express my congratulations and well wishes to all of you. MILTON G.

Mr. Schmied, our principal, presiding,.urged the candidates for graduation to secure their credentials from schools previously attended. He also told all students to put forth their greatest efforts to pass in the subjects they were undertaking.

DISHLER Another meeting of the Senior Class was called on December 6, 1933, in pre- paration for the Senior Dance. A committee was selected to promote the dance, and all Seniors were urged to give their loyal support to make it successful. On january 10, 1934, another assembly was held. A list of expenses was pre- sented to the Seniors, and a class dues of 34.00 were set. Other important features were discussed, namely the Year Book, rings and pins. The Annual Senior Dance was held on january 27, 1934, at the Rennert Hotel. Bob Iula and his orchestra furnished the music. The dance was a great success, and the Seniors were delighted to have present on that evening many of the faculty. The meeting on April 12, 1934, was held mainly to give the Seniors information concerning graduation. Incidentals such as diplomas, the matter of dress, and commencement exercises were discussed. Mr. Schmied reminded the Seniors that there remained only a short time for them to put forth their last efforts if they desired to be among the number graduating. VVe, of the Senior Class of '34, in parting, say to the coming graduating Class of '35 that we wish them all the happiness and success in their class that we have had in ours, and may the light of prosperity shine upon them!

Want to go? Plenty of fun. Jane Winslow put down the book she had been reading and looked affectionately at her pretty, younger sister. l'd love to, she said wistfully, but it would be the same old story. VVhat's the use, Mil? VVe tried it before, and you've seen what always happens. I sit and watch the fun instead of being in it. I just don't take, that's all. It's sweet of you to ask me, though. You're always trying to get me in, aren't you? Oh, gee, Jane, you're lots better looking than Terry Hall. You dance better, too., Come on, just this onceg if it don't work, I won't ask you again. You ought to go out more. How do you expect to find the romance you're always looking for? I don't like to neck and smoke either, but if I didn't indulge a little, I'd be left out too. Come on and go. Try it, anyway. Mildred Winslow looked pleadingly at her sister. H Muz don't like me to go unless you or Dot are along. Jane sighed. All right, kid, I'll go, but it won't be any use. As they climbed in bed early the next morning jane turned to her sister. You see, I did try to be like the rest of you, but it isn't my nature. I just can't do it. Be a good kid and let me stay at home the next time. After that Mildred went alone or with their other sister. Jane stayed home or went to the movies with girl friends from the office. Several weeks later jane changed her position and went with a large engineering firm where there were three men in the office and five in the machine shop, she being the only girl. Associating with men from all walks of life-from mechanics to millionaires- did a lot toward givingjane the poise and confidence Thirty-seven in herself she had hitherto lacked. She began accept- ing a few invitations to dinner and shows, and even went back to dancing. She loved it. Two men asked her to marry them. Jane was extremely flattered, for both were wealthy men, and she was sorry that she didn't love either of them enough to marry. She didn't want to get married though: she was having a good time, better than she had ever expected, and although she hadn't yet found Romance fshe was twenty-threej, she was still looking for it. It was late March and a blustery, dismal day when jane found Romance. She had been alone in the office most of the day. The bookkeeper was out collecting accounts: and Mr. Turner and the Engi- neer had taken The Moth, the firm's tiny mono- plane, and Hown. to Philadelphia to an auction sale. The day had seemed terribly long. jane wondered dismally if it would ever end. She had little or nothing to do. VVith Mr. Turner away she had no mail. It was their dull season and her work was light. Therefore, when the front door opened and some- one entered the store, Jane looked up with more than usual interest. Taking a hasty glance at herself in the tiny mirror she went out into the store. The customer was tall and slender and stood with his back to Jane. May I help you? Jane's voice held just the right amount of deference. The man turned and smiled. Jane the business woman disappeared in that instant, and Jane the woman came into her own. Then the stranger spoke. I am looking for a motor for my yacht. I understand you are converting airplane engines for marine installations and having wonderful success. Yes-s, jane stammered. VVe have been. Mr. THE OWL Turner is away, but I expect him back tonight some- time. I'm sorry. If you could come back some other time. She paused. He will probably be in all day tomorrow. Thank you, smiled the stranger. Tomorrow, then. With another smile he was gone. Jane went back to her desk feeling suddenly glad to be just alive. The whole world seemed brighter. She wondered wistfully if the stranger with the charming voice and the wonderful smile would be back on the morrow. She wished she had gotten his name. VVhen the bookkeeper came in sometime later he found her busily typing some letters that she had been trying to get done for weeks. And the clock said 5.15. Say, Miss Winslow, it's after five. VVhy the overtime? VVaiting for someone? jane started at the clock unbelievingly. XVell, who'd have thunk it? she gasped, using her favorite expression of bad English. Feature little Jane working overtime when she don't have to. Vifith a burst of merry laughter she prepared to leave the office, calling a cheerful Good-night as she went out. The bookkeeper and the mechanics stared at her retreating figure. Ye gods! VVhat happened to Miss VVinslow? An hour ago she nearly bit my head off when I went in the office, now look at her. Shaking his head mournfully the mechanic went on washing the grease off his hands. Jane was busy the next morning. Title contracts, equipment rental contracts, the telephone and a dozen other things kept her so busy that the office door opened and someone said, H Good morning, you see I am back again. Jane was acutely conscious of the fact that her hair needed combing and that her nose was shiny. She wished she hadn't let her hair grow. It would stick out in little tufts around the tiny knot that wouldn't stay up. Trying to appear indifferent to her appearance she went back to the shop to get Mr. Turner. The stranger, whose name was Richard Penton, bought an airplane motor and contracted to have it converted and installed in his sixty-foot yacht. In the days that followed, the entire force grew fond of the quiet man with the rich Southern drawl. They all imitated his drawl because they loved to hear him talk. He spent a great deal of time at the place and most of it in the office talking to Jane. If he didn't come in, he would phone, and very often he would do both. jane thrilled every time the phone rang and she heard, L' Miss Vilinslow, this is Richard Penton. He always talked to her a few minutes before he asked for Mr. Turner or one of the boys. The jobgseemed to be a hoodoo from the start. Everything went wrong. VVhen it was nearly COITI- pleted, theyt-took the boat out for a trial run and burned up the cylinders and pistons. The whole engine had to be replaced. It was late july by that time. A I The whole force was calling Richard Penton Dickie by now. He neglected his own business and .hung around the office and shop. When they put the new engine in the yeacht, he still called the office daily for news and then went to the Yacht Club to see for himself. jane wasn't the same. She didn't know herself. Unconsciously she would start singing in the office. Jane had no singing voice and the result was past anyone's expectations. The boys teased her un- mercifully, but it didn't stop Jane at all. She took the keenest delight in walking into the shop and announcing, Dickie calling, what shall I tell him today? The boys would look at each other, then into Jane's mischievous face, groan and say impatiently, f'Oh, for Heaven's sake, get out of here! Tell him anything. Tell him to go eat grass. As Jane was leaving for lunch one day, Mr. Turner called her back. Going uptown? he asked. Jane nodded. U Leave these drawings at Dickie's office, will you? Jane took the long envelope from Mr. Turner with hands that trembled slightly. She was sur- prised at herself for being so thrilled over the prospect of going to Dickie's office. Why, you nut, you half-cracked nut, she told herself sternly as she walked up the street. Jane VVinslow, I do believe you are in love with the man. Snap out of it, kid. A man with as much money and personality as he has is never going to notice a girl like you. He is just being nice to you. Snap out of it, kid, come down to earth. At an early age Jane had formed the habit of talking to herself, calling herself down or compli- menting herself. She was putting it into practice now. For the first time though, it didn't work. All the way uptown she took herself sternly to task for falling in love with Richard Penton. It didn't help matters at all. When she reached his office on the top floor of the Trust Building, she was so nervous she could hardly stand. She had to wait a few minutes, which gave her time to pull herself together. VVhen Dickie ushered her into his private office, she was almost herself again. Brisk, business- like, she delivered the plans, exchanges a' few com- monplace-remarks and started to rise. Don't go yet, Miss VVinslow. I want to talk to you? jane stayed, more thrilled than ever. VVhat did he want to say? She soon found out. After playing with his pencil and acting in every way like a shy schoolboy, Dickie cleared his throat and said: Engaged, Miss Winslow? Y Inf what way? laughed Jane. b --'e f CCantinued on Page 495 ,f T hirtyeeighzf THE OWL Thirty-nine OWL O.

Irene was graduated from Seton High School and is taking some commercial sub- jects which she has not had as yet, here at Evening High School. Miss Gale is entering the Notre Dame College of Mary- land in the Fall. It was not possible, however, to learn what studies she will pursue. Out charming subject is of Polish extrac- tion and speaks the native tongue of that country fluently. It was learned that she is secretary to the president of a large and stable Polish Building Loan Association. She has traveled over much of the Eastern Seaboard. From reliable authority we have learned that Irene is well liked by members of the faculty, and that some of our students have been casting sheep glances in her direc- tion. VVe feel sure that the glances are being wasted because Miss Gale happens to be happily in love with someone else, and as soon as the opportunity presents itself she will add the letters Mrs. to her name. We hope, however, that Irene will first acquire letters from Notre Dame College. We also wish to add that Miss Gale, as representative for THE OWL, has done some excellent work. We hope she attains all her aspirations and we say, in all sincerity Best wishes! Forty-one Like all intelligent people who realize they never know too much, Rosalind is not satisfied with a high school diploma from the Institute of Notre Dame. Formerly connected with the Mailing Department of the May Company, Miss Herzog is now dispensing lingerie at O'Neill's. Rosalind has modeled in several fashion shows. Miss Herzog has not limited her traveling to the city's limits. She has been to New York, Philadelphia, Wlashington and Vir- ginia. She has also witnessed many regettas on the Potomac and Schuylkill rivers. Several months of each year, for the past ten years, have been spent in Atlantic City. The Clarissan of Notre Dame had MisS Herzog as one of its associate editors. Later, from a class of eighty-five seniors, Miss Herzog became Editor-in-Chief. In- cidentally the Seniors were the only ones eligable for that position. Rosalind has won several national awards for essays on Captain John Barry, and has also received honorable mention in the con- test on George Washington conducted by the Baltimore News. A prize of 325.00 was given to Rosalind by The Hub. She has written several articles for the Post Better Homes Contest in 1929, and has captured several lesser -prizes for various contests sponsored by different papers. Swimming, basketball and dancing hold second place in her likes. The first place, we understand, is reserved for a certain well-known strokesman. It is rumored that the engagement between the two is not being denied, and in the best Winchell way we say, Orchids to you both!

BY GEORGE NIANN i ' O you who have stepped into the valley of death, so that we could be born we bow in sincere gratitude. From the first instant we became capable of noticing our surroundings, our eyes sought out the l i face which means so much to us. That face was your face. XVhen our tongues loosened and we began sputtering and spattering, the first word which fell from our mouths was Mommie. During our childhood our love for you was undying but .... we have grown. Now we have brains. This brain makes us realize all the more the great debt we cannot ever hope to repay, this brain also makes us contemptable and we crush you many times with a cutting remark. Often we have slammed a door and rushed from the house. Not once did we stop to think that you were wondering to yourself if we were the children for whom you suffered and sacrificed so much. We did not know your eyes were glistening with tears and your heart crushed. But how quickly do we return to you when we are hurt. How eagerly we listen to your words when we find the world pitted against us. Over and over we resolve never to mistreat you again, but sometimes our wild impulses get the better of us and we forget all we have ever promised. Saying that we are sorry is putting it mildly. VVe realize you are not perpetual and after your departure into the Great Beyond how lonely will be our traveling. You are responsible for sunshine in a home. VVithout you home is just a house . . . a place in which to eat and sleep. Your deep understanding and consoling nature makes existence for mankind tolerable. A kind word right from the heart is golden. VVith all kindness and sincerity, we say, to those mothers who have served their purpose, to those now performing their duty and to those yet to come ....

GLEANINGS Keep your friends by kindness, conquer your foes by kindness, win all by goodness and courtesy. The first principle of money making is money saving. A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favor rather than silver and gold. Proverb. Success does not depend upon external hope as on self reliance. Lincoln Blind impulses have made fools of many people. Intoxication reveals what soberness con- ceals. Politeness is cold formality, courtesy is warm hospitality. Hell hath no fury like that of a spurned woman. No chain is stronger than its weakest link. All are willing to forgive but not so willing to forget. Some of the gentlest men we know are terrors to their families. Grim silence can hurt more than a cutting remark. Lord God of Host be with us yet, Lest we forget-Lest we forget!

F orty-eight THE OVVL CC0llf1ilZ1l6ll from Page 385 I mean are you going to be married? he en- plained. Not that I know of, Jane answered. Why? I was just wondering if you would let me take you out sometime? He seemed extremely ill at ease. -Iane's heart went out to him. Surely, I'd love to. Where? Oh, anywhere, he answered vaguely. All right, Jane agreed. Fine. I'll be tied up the rest of the week. Can I call you at home? No, we have no phone: but you can call at the office. It's all right. I'll do that, then, the first of the week. jane went back to the office in a daze. Dickie wanted her to go out with him! She kept repeating it to herself all afternoon as if it were too good to be true. Jane waited impatiently for Dick to call on Monday. He didn't. Tuesday went by. Wednes- day. Thursday his voice came over the wire. .Iane's heart was beating so hard she could hear it. Yes, Mr. Penton. I want to talk to you todayq but right now let me have Mr. Turner, please. With a little impatient gesture Jane called Mr. Turner to the phone. Dickie called several times in the two weeks following, but never asked Jane the question she was longing to hear. He asked for Mr. Turner almost immediately. Jane was piqued. The boat was ready to be turned over to Dickie. That would be the end. One of the boys came in the office one day just before the job was completed. f'Say, Miss XYins- low, Dickie wants you to go with him Friday on the first trip. Wants you to get a party together. He's too shy to ask you himself and asked me to Fmd out what you think of the idea. jane wanted to say eagerly, Tell him I'd love to go. Instead she controlled her impulses and said tersely, Tell him he has a tongue in his head. If he wants me to go, he'll have to ask me himself. In the two days that followed Dickie called seven times for no apparent reason. He would talk to Jane a few minutes, Flounder around, and then ask for Mr. Turner. When Mr. Turner got on the wire he would ask him perfectly insane questions, some of them having absolutely no sense in them. She knew he was calling to ask about the boat trip, but she was too stubborn to help him out, so he Houndered on. He never did get to the point where he asked her to go. Dickie left Friday night with three or four men friends. There were no ladies on board. They cruised down the bay, and around nine o'clock anchored and went ashore at one of the little towns on the bay. A storm was coming up and they Forty-nine didn't care to be out in it. Around midnight the wind was still blowing a gale and the hail and rain were coming down in torrents. It was a terrible night. Dickie and his party stayed at the hotel. The storm had not lessened any the next morning, but they went down to the shore to see if the yacht was all right. A straight stretch of stormy water met their eyes. The boat was not in view. They looked at each other in consternation. Surely they had anchored the boat right there. They searched all the little coves around the beach. The yacht was not there. Finally they reached the conclusion that the wind had blown it out into the bay. Sick at heart, Dickie notified the Coast Guard. Sunday passed-no news. They returned to the city Sunday night. Monday morning was clear and bright. No sign of the recent storm showed in the sky. Jane felt particularly light hearted. She just felt that some- thing was about to happen. It did, but not in the way she expected. At ten o'clock the phone rang. Jane picked up the receiver and in her sweetest voice repeated the firm name. Miss XVinslow, this is Richard Penton. Yes, Mr. Penton. Is Mr. Turner there? No, he hasn't come in yet. Anything I can do? l've got some bad news. Dickie was almost crying. Jane was terrified. What is it, Mr. Penton? Please tell me. H I-I lost the boat in the storm, Miss Winslow. jane was dumbfounded. VVhat-tl Tell me about it, quick. He told her brokenly. Oh, Mr. Penton, I'm so sorry. I can't tell you how sorry I am. Jane was almost incoherent in her sympathy. The week went by with no news. Dickie called every day. Mr. Turner had enlisted the help of a number of his friends along the bay and neigh- boring rivers, creeks and shores. Still there was no news. Jane left on her vacation on Friday. She hated to go. She wanted to stay and get the first news. A boat had been found, sunk in thirty-five feet of water, which they believed to be the Water NYitch. Dickie and his brother had gone to make sure. Jane wanted to be there when they came back, but there was no help for it. Her sister ex- pected her. It would be ridiculous to give up her vacation for a man who cared nothing for her. So Jane went to Virginia. She danced and flirted away one week and had a glorious time. Through it all though she was thinking about Dickie and the Water VVitch. VVas the boat they had found the XVater Witch? VVas it badly damaged. Jane could stand it no longer, and in desperation dropped a card to Dickie and asked him to let her know. But he didnlt. jane forfeited the rest of her vacation and went home. Her sister told her she was a fool. 11 THE OWL I know it, she said bitterly. But I can't help it. I've got to know. Why don't you write Mr. Turner then? He'll surely know. No,l' said jane, stubbornly. I don't want him to know I'm that much interested. I'm going home. Silly, l1e'll think it's funny you're coming back so soon. Jane had no answer for that. But she went any- way. Wlhen she walked in the office Monday morning, Mr. Turner almost fell on her neck. I never was so glad to see anybody in my life. Carter left and I didn't know where to reach you. Carter was the bookkeeper. Mr. Turner was so overjoyed to see her he forgot to ask what had caused her to change her plans. The phone rang. Jane reached for it eagerly. Miss Winslow! When did you get back? Did you have a good time? Aren't you back early? VVe didn't expect you yet. Sorry I didn't get a chance to write. Everything is Okay. It was the 'VVater Witch.' Don't seem to be badly damaged. We've raised her and pulled her ashore at Love Point. l'm so glad, Mr. Penton. XVant to talk to Mr. Turner? Just a minute. jane was glad the boat had sunk. She hated herself for it. She was utterly ashamed of herself. But the thought persisted just the same. It gave her a chance to see more of Richard Penton. Naturally the engine would need attention after being under water so long. Airplane engines weren't built for, that. Jane had some friends at her home several weeks later and asked Dickie. To her surprise and delight he came. She had expected him to refuse. He made himself utterly charming. Jane played thirty- two hands of Bridge and wasn't even sleepy. They had a lovely time and Dickie accepted an invitation from the other couple to play at their home in the near future. jane was overjoyed. It was very late when they left. Dickie took the other two in his car. As Jane tucked her now short hair into a cap to keep the wave in, she wondered wistfully when the next time would be. In spite of the late hours the night before, jane awoke early. Refreshed and happy she left for the office. Two men, who were sitting behind her in the street car, were talking excitedly about an accident that had happened the night before. Idly, Jane listened. She really could not help hearing because they were speaking loudly, and most of it was plainly audible above the noise of the car. She caught snatches of the conversation. Two o'clock this morning-coming home from party. Run into a telegraph pole to keep from hitting a dog. Paper says he's going to die. Darned shame, too. Dick Penton is the best lawyer in the city. jane heard no more. Dickie! They were talk- ing about Dickie! He was hurt! Dying! Vllherel Dickie dying! Dickie dying! The words ham- mered themselves through Jane's mind. The car wheels seemed to shriek them. Dickie's dying. Dickie's dying. No, no, not Dickie. Oh, dear Lord, not Dickie. Jane was not aware that she spoke the words aloud. No, no, she kept repeating, it must be someone else. It can't be Dickie. But a newsboy coming through the car was crying, Read all about it. Prominent lawyer hurt in auto crash. Read all about it. jane found two cents with difficulty and bought a paper. Having bought it, she was afraid to look at it. It couldn't be Dickie: not her Dickie. Desperately she glanced at the paper. It was Dickie? His picture occupied a prominent place and under it were the words. Richard Penton, promi- nent lawyer, who is believed near death at ---- Hospital, following an auto crash early this morn- ing. The paper went into detail, but jane couldn't see the words. Everything went black before her eyes. She seemed to be going round and round. Dimly she heard someone say, Look out. Catch her. The car was passing a hospital, so they took Jane in there. She opened her eyes finally and looked into the sweet face of the head nurse. 'lWhere am I? she asked. Then she remembered. Dickie, she cried, Dickie, and fainted again. It took the doctor and the nurse a long time to bring her to. The doctor had pointed to the picture of Richard Penton in the paper that was clutched tightly in jane's hand. The nurse nodded under- standing and shook her head sorrowfully. Poor thing, she crooned, poor little girl. She will get a worse shock yet. Can we keep it from her? Jane struggled to consciousness in time to hear the last words. f'Keep what from me? she demanded. Then seeing the look on the nurse's face, she said, Dickie, he's head. That's what you want to keep from me, isn't it? Is Richard Penton in this hospital? Yes, said the nurse. Richard Penton is here. He is not dead, but he is very ill: both legs broken and concussion of the brain. Take me to him at once, demanded Jane. The nurse shook her head. He is too ill to see anyone. Do you know him well? she asked sympathetically. A cunning plan was developing in Jane's head. She must see Dickie. She would face the conse- quences afterward. I am Mrs. Penton, she said quietly. XYill you take me to my husband, please. Surprised into action, the nurse led the way down the long corridor. I thought Mr. Penton was a bachelor, she said finally.

He took me home and was going home when the accident oc- curred. I just learned of it this morning. The nurse seemed satisfied with the explanation. jane followed her into the little white room. Two people were already there, sitting beside the bed. jane knew they must be Dickie's parents. The nurse led jane over to Mrs. Penton. This is Mr. Penton's wife. They were just married last night. The old lady started in surpriseg then seeing jane's stricken face, she held out her arms. jane, however, did not notice. Her eyes were on the silent, motion- less figure on the bed. VVith a little cry she drop- ped to her knees and buried her face in the bed- clothes. Dickie, Dickie. Her breath came in little broken gasps. H Dickie, dear, do you hear me? It's jane, darling. I love you. Jane loves you. Look at me. Her voice rose. Dickie, don't leave me. I love you so! Don't leave me. Unwillingly, Richard Penton opened his eyes. He didnlt want to. He wished drowsily that they would let him alone. He felt queer all over. He tried to move it in the direction of the crooning voice, With a great effort he succeeded and saw Jane. jove, it was Miss Winslow. Wonder how she got there. He looked again. There were Mother and Dad. How did lhey get there. VVhere was he anyway? Hello, he said weakly. VVhat's all the rumpus about? The nurse hurried forward. Feeling better. Fine. Your little wife here, and your mother and father have been worried. The doctor came in at that moment. Hullo, he fumbled cheerfully. Woke up, eh. That's the trick. Had us all worried about that. You'll be all right now. Nothing worse than a couple of broken legs. Nice little wife you have here. After a few more minutes and a brief examination, he went out, taking the nurse with him. Dick Penton's mind was in a chaos. VVife? He hadn't any wife. Nobody was here but Miss VVin- slow. He couldn't understand how she got here though. Then, looking at jane's tear-stained face, he understood. She loved him. Why she had told them she was his wife he couldn't understand, but he decided to let her explain. Mrs. Penton gathered jane into her arms. Mr. Penton went to his son. Sly devil, he laughed fondly. Why didn't you tell your old Dad you were going to be married. Put one over on us. Fifty-three jane hid her face on Mother Penton's shoulder while she waited-trembling. VVhat would Dickie say. He would hate her. It was all over now. Dick seemed to know what she was thinking. He laughed. 'Didn't know it myself until last night, Dad. I was coming home from Jane's when I hugged that pole. jane, come here and kiss your husband. Jane was pushed gently forward. Why had Dickie taken her side? VVhy hadn't he exposed her? She reached the side of the bed and hesitated. Two arms that were not broken pulled her down until her face was within an inch of Dickie's. XYith a look on his face that jane had never seen before, he Caught her savagely to him and kissed her fiercely, a kiss that burned into Jane's soul. She wished she could die right there. Abruptly, Dick let her go. Mother-Dad, he said, would you mind going outside for few minutes. I have something to say to jane. When they were alone Dick turned to jane. NNhat did you mean by telling them you were married to me? VVhy did you do it? jane hung her head in misery. This was, indeed, the end. VVhy, oh why, had she told them that? VVouldn't it have been better to lose Dick by death than in this way? Power of speech seemed to be taken from her. VVell, said Dick Penton, I'm waiting for you to answer me. jane found her voice. It was the only way I could think of to make them let me see you. Dick's voice was more gentle as he asked, f'But why did you have to see me? Because you were hurt going from my home. It was natural that I should want to see you. They said you were going to die and I couldn't bear it. jane was sobbing now. I couldn't bear not seeing you again ever. VVhy? Because I-I love you. Jane buried her face in her hands and sobbed terribly-sobs that tore at Richard's heart. jane-jane, dear. Please come here. Slowly Jane went over to Dick. He caught her savagely again and again kissed her. Releasing her, he said, Jane-I had to do it. Don't you see. I love you, too. I'm a dub. I can't tell you rightg but you will marry me, won't you, dearest? jane's answer was indistinct because Dickie was kissing her again. So you will just have to guess what it was.
