Norman's business."
''Fine. Cora! Have a good time.’
“Well, it will be keeping him
away from her for a few days '
Cora said, “and that Is worth
while. Perhaps we can sail for
England at once when we get

“Good! Let me know as soon as
you get back."
Cora promised and hung up

But there have been so many

“I can remember more school

During her freshman and
sophomore years in hlgiischool she
was a student In Middletown. It ha-

Efaio.

“Why, senator,” Martha ex-
claimed. “that, wasn’t very diplo-
matic. was it?”
“I use diplomacy In poltlcs.
With my family I speak my mind.
Winfield didn’t get angry He
laughed at me,” the senator con-
fessed. "He said it was a perfect
guess, that Miss Larkin"—the sen-
ator grimaced with disgust—"he
called her Lola—had lust returned
to New York."
“Did he tell you her reasons
senator?"
"He told me what she told him
She had gone out for Just two rea-
sons. she explained-"
One of them Martha was think-
ing. was named Norman Standish
“—just two reasons " the sena-
tor continued. "One was lor rest
The other was to investigate a pic-
ture offer she ts trying to make
him believe has come to her.
"Of course that’s all poppycock
Miss Carter There was no picture
offer. She is trying to rush Win-
field Into matrimony!"
"For once you are partly wrong."
Martha assured him. “I do know
that she had an offer. In fact.
Elite Pictures wanted her so much
that they sent a man on here to
sign her up "
"That isn’t so good! Not even an
opportunity to star in pictures
looks as good to her as marriage
with my son."
"Did you have a quarrel with
your son?"
“Not much. 1 begged him to use
nis head—not to go blindly into
any such mesalliance."
"Bad word to use." Martha
warned.
T’HL senator sighed and nodded.
* "Winfield Just glared at me and
lelt the table."
“Too much opposition is fatal.
1 warned you. senator. Well. Ill
make every effort for you. 1 still
believe she is more Interested In
another man.”
Martha felt guilty about this. It
was she knew, playing Cora
Standish against Senator Balcom.
lor she had told Cora she believed
Lola was more interested in a
splendid young man that in
Standish.
"I hope so. But I'm not at all
convinced.” the senator replied. He
believed he had reason to be dis-
appointed in what Martha had
done, so far.
She told him about the caller
-he missed, who came about the
Gcndron estate.
"Afraid I can't help you there.
Miss Carter." he said. "Cabot.
Potter ti Walsh ts the law firm
that handled some of the late
Peter Gendron's investments. I do
not know any of them, personally.”
RAAKIHA departed more down-
cast than ever It was evident
the senator wasn't going to do
any more to help her become ex-
ecutrix of that immense estate.
she stopped at the newsstand
to buy some magazines She want-
ed to go home and read and for-
get her worries.
As she was leaving, she almost

that he wore a dinner jacket.

up. and when ordered to back up, I
they advnnce. When two are put
to work together, one goes into re-
verse while the other one moves
ahead.”
