AUNT MARTHA TAKES OVER
CHAPTER XVI
rpHE hour and a half on the
*• train, after hurried packing
and a quick dash downtown In the
cab, was Uke a nightmare to
Martha Marshall. The rumbling
wheels seemed to be saying, over
and over, the words Eugene had
used in his wire. “Helen critically
111. Helen critically 111. Helen crit-
ically ill.”
TTie sick shock, the sudden all-
consuming fear for her sister,
drove everything else out of Mar-
tha’s mind. Helen had never been
strong, but she stood up to life
and battled so valiantly! There
was Eugene, and his little garage
that seldom made money. There
were the three small children, the
oldest only 7. Helen did her own
housework, her own washing, her
own ironing. And now, she was
in the hospital.
All those letters Helen had writ-
ten later—those letters asking her
to come and stay with them while
Bill was in the Army—had they
been Helen’s indirect, hesitant way
of telling her that she needed
help? Help for which Eugene was
unable to pay?
* * *
A MOUNTING panic shook her
•x* as the train neared Bayvllle.
She was standing on the platform,
suitcase beside her. her hat on,
her gloves on, clasping her hand-
bag very tightly, when at long
last the train rolled in.
Eugene was waiting for her. He
was a short, stocky man, whose

asked him bluntly. "She seemed
so strange last night-for a little
while—”
The doctor had kind, shrewd
eyes, and a reassuring smile. “She
wasn’t doing very well yesterday.
But she’s better now. I think your
coming lias helped her.”
"Is—is she out of danger?”
He made a tent of his fingers
and said carefully, "It’s hard to
Judge. But if she has nothing
extraneous to worry about—if she
can be made to tliink of nothing
but getting well—’’
“I see."
So she telephoned Air Transport
from the coinbox in the hospital
lobby. Paul wasn’t In his office.
She talked to the chief engineer.
"Mv sister's very ill in the hos-
pital. Very ill. I must stay here.
There are three children, and she's

TRAVEL BY THUMB
LOSES ITS LUSTER
NORMAN. Feb. 11—<U.R)— An 80-
year-old woman hitch-hiker was
returned to her home at Britton
after deciding that she wasn’t as
fond of traveling as she thought.
Officers saw the woman stand-
ing on the highway near here
recently and questioned her. She
told them she "Just liked to travel."
This week officers found her in
the downtown district. She said
she was tired and wanted to go
home. They arranged for her to
do so.

specified that five new patrol cars

ton.
and green. There were deep rings
under hls eyes. He was worn,
haggard, as if he hadn't slept for
nights.
“How's Helen?” Martha shot at
him immediately. “What was
wrong with her? How long has
she been in the hospital?”
"She's had a hard time." Eu-
gene evaded. "They operated this
morning and I—I kept hoping I
wouldn’t have to wire you ...”
Her fingers were tight on hls
arm. "Do you mean Helen’s—
Helen's—" Her voice seemed to
give out. She couldn't utter the
horribly word which was staring
Into her. No. No. It couldn’t be
that bad. It couldn't be.
"She isn't rallying,” said Eugene
dully. They’re doing everything,
but she won't rally?"
“What was It?”
He couldn't look at her. He mut-
tered. "Complicated. She didn't
tell me right away—’’
Martha bit her. Up. She didn’t
ask him anything else as they
drove to the hospital. She could
guess, now. Helen who was so
small and slender—Helen who had
borne three children so quickly,
one after another . . .
It was after visiting hours at
the hospital, of course. The quiet
lobby was dark, with a pool of
light over the switchboard. A
nurse sitting there looked up
She recognized Eugene, for she
said at once. "Oo right up, Mr.
Nugent."
A nurse at the chart desk rose
and walked toward them. Her
rubber heels were almost sound-
less on the tile floor. "She’s not
sleeping. Mr. Nugent. You may
go right In.”
Martha braced herself as the
nurse opened the door of a room
Just beyond the bay-windowed
waiting room. She tried to pin a
smile to her lips, in case Helen
should be lying there, watching
the doorway, waiting for them.
But Helen wasn't caring who
came or went, she realized In the
next shocked second. Helen lay
white and bloodless on the bed.
with parched Ups, with tumbled
hair to which the odor of ether
atlU clung. Her fever-bright eyes
were fixed on the celUng.
"Oh. Helen! Helen!" The cry
was tom from her.
Helen's head moved on the pil-
low. She looked at her sister, but
her expression scarcely changed.
Martha ran to the bed and bent
over It. “Helen, darling! You're
going to be aU right, aren't you.
sweet? You're going to get well,
aren’t you?”
The too-bright eyes didn’t seem
to understand, at first. Martha
took her sister's thin fingers In
hers and squeezed them. "Helen
it's Martha. Don't you recognise
me?"
And then Helen smiled, and
suddenly she seemed to hive come
back from the far land to which
she had Journeyed so strangely,
with her eyes wide open
* • •
XT EXT morning, Martha waited
I’I for the doctor in the hospital
right, Mrs. Marshall. Don’t worry
about anything. Ill get a girl from
Sales to help with your work until
you’re back."
Swiftly she planned her days.
Morning visits to Helen, bringing
the children. She’d bring them
neat and clean! Then home, lunch,
tidying up the house, putting the
children to bed for their naps.
At 4. she'd slip back to the hos-
pital, alone. By 6:30. when Eu-
gene came home, dinner would be
fixed, the children rested. In the
evening, Eugene could see Helen
while Martha stayed with the
children.
It was a good plan. But It didn't
work.
* * *
/"TENIE, who was 5, and Sister,
^ wno was 7. could dress them-
selves all right. But the eflect
was weird. And Mprtha had to
be dressing the baby, getting
breakfast, feeding the baby, and
somehow straighten herself out
before they could go. By then
the baby had to be changed. Oenle
had gotten hls blouse dirty, the
baby was crying, and It was 10:30
and they were nowhere near the
hospital. In despair, she com-
mandeered a taxi.
Genie and Sister had to be de-
sisted. violently, from climbing up
on Helen's bed. “Oh, darlings!"
Helen whispered. "Sweeties ...”
The children, suddenly very grave,
stood one at each side of the bed
and Sister began to sob. "Mama,
you’re so white! Mama, you're not
going to die, are you?”
"Of course not, Sis!” Martha
cried harshly. "Of course not!"
Helen wanted the baby lifted
so she could kiss him. There were
tears of Joy In her eyes as she
thanked Martha. “It's so good of
you. Marth'.”
“Nonsense!" Martha cleared her
throat. "How are you feeling this
morning? Chipper?"
The pinched white lines of pain
around Helen's Ups belled her i
brave “Fine.”
They didn’t stay long. When
they reached the bungalow, the
baby was a damp mess. Martha's
dress was ruined. Sister had blun-
dered Into a mud puddle, and
Oenle had found three stones
which he Insisted on bringing Into
the house with him.
“I don't think well go to the
hospital every day,” Martha told
th children. “I think we'll have
the lady next door In here, morn-
ings. to mind you while I go."
* # *
Y Friday, with Helen definitely
getting better. If slowly. Mar-
tha was almost In command or
herself and the children. The
baby had learned that "No!”
meant he mustn't pull the table-
cloth. dragging all the dishes to
destruction with It. Oenle had
learned that a big boy of 5 years
old could wash hls own face and
hands, must not Jump on the
sofa, must drink all hls milk, and
must never, never let the water
run In the bathroom until It
overflowed the bowl and made
an ocean on the floor. And Sister
had learned that a 7-year-old
young lady took her own baths
and wheeled her little brother
up and down the sidewalk—with-
out a single splU—for an hour
every afternoon. She also dried
dishes with hardly any accidents.
