JUDITH MARTIN. young col

Judith defends Brie against
the accusation of DEAN TIMO-
THY BROWN that Erie has
been Involved with “KITTY"

dents have died.

Judith discovers a secret love

synpathlsee with the woman.

MIRA ALDRICH. In love
with Eric. and favored by his
mother. is lesion of Judith.

Judith receives a telephone
call from Mrs. Tiruotby Brown
and meets her at a tea shop.
There Mrs. Brown says that the
dean believes Judith spent a
week-end is the city with Eric
and meane’to ask the board to
dismiss her.

If Mrs. linwn dared to say
that she also was In the city and
knew that Judith was alone ht

Judith refuses to accept the
sacrifice.

She saw Shea watching him as he

you to the Prairie lcbooner. where
you can't possibly eat up more than

a dollar. no if you're hungry.”
“Why a prodigious user-catty?"
laughed Judith.

Wetberel shook his head. "Not

Wetherel turned to Ju‘lllli. "Lordl
I forgot that French quiz. 1 must
run along and learn three pages of
translation by heart before one
o'clock."

They went on down the path until
they overtook Dr. Dorn. "Run along.
Will," said Judith. "I'll walk to-
ward home with Dr. Dom. I think
he goes my way."

The professor turned and met her
smile with a sober face. He raised~
his hat and spoke stifily. "l'm sor-
ry, Miss Martin. but I shall have to
walk very fast. I have an appoint-
ment." He struck into a vigorous
pace and went off.

“Whom" whistled Will. "En the

professor ‘approves opou.’ does he?
Wonder how he'd bet if he disap-
proved! For a man making an ap-
pointmnnt. he was walking blamed
lowly before we caught up with
min."
Judith turned on him. “Will. you
are the v rat specimen of blunderer
and tact ss dolt that over I en-
countered in my checkered career."
She turned on her heel and walked
away.

In the middle of the afternoon
Myra came into Judith‘s room. her
arms full of Chrysanthemums. Ju-
dith lifted he:- head fi'om the inter-
minable freshman themes with a
frown at the interruption.

“Don't rccwl, Jude." cried the girl.
"I've brought you half'of my flow-
era. You can have all the bronze
ones to match your hair." She bo~

leaves scattered over the table. Ju~
dith bit her lips and said nothing.

But Myra rattled on. “You can‘t‘
guess where I got 'em. No use to
try.. That darling Dr. Dorn bought
cm for me when I met him by the
florist's shop just now. He said he
never could withstand flowers."

Myra giggled. "That young man
is not so slow. I offered him my
hand when we parted. And believe
you moi he held it a long time. look-
ing into my eyes. I could vamp him
if I wanted to." .

"Could you?" said Judith. But

than a dismissal. Myra. seeing her

For three days Judith opened her
mail each morning in nervous haste.
But no summons arrived from Dean
Brown or from the board.

On the fifth day Judith tried to
reach Mrs. Brown by telephone. She
was not at home and Judith left the
telephone to meet her Horace class.

The elder Reasey was starting. as
