Patte Simcoe Street North Nov. 5 to Nov. 14 ag Reet INSTALMENT TWO Rackrufl Motors hire Rowens to accom. pany Peter on a nation-wide four in their last er rid 1 id J Bg minute 8s chaperon. They are waiting for Bobby to show up fo make the start. Peter himself showed up to good advantage. From ten until eleven o'clock the photographers snapped and the re- porters took notes. First Rowena sat at the wheel, then Peter, then the two together, each bravely try- ing to conceal the worm of fear that nawed at the core of his being-- ear that the chaperon had changed her mind and would not come. Eleven o'clock--=eleven thirty. The reporters were getting restive. Mr, Rack had his watch in his hand and Mr. Ruff was talking business off at one side of the room. " A taxicab pulled up at the side entrance and a little brown mouse of a girl slipped out and crept timidly 'in through the rear door and sidled up to the cashier's cage. She had to stand on tiptoe to be seen from within, "Where will I find Miss Ros- tand 7" she asked and her voice was a rippling low whisper. "What name, please? Are you from one of the papers?" asked the cashier briskly. "No, I'm Miss Lowell--Roberta Lowell, I=] am the chageron for the motor tour," explained the little brown mouse with a roll of brown eyes and a display of deep dimples. "Oh, Mr. Rack," called the cashier, "here's the chaperon." The little brown mouse looked ready to sink into the floor in shy confusion at the tide of photogra- phers, reporters, automobile execu- tives and salesmen--and Rowena and Peter, you may be sure--surged swiftly toward her. "The chaperon!" ejaculated Mr. Rack. "The chaperon?" echoed Mr. Ruff. She had told Rowena she was twenty-three years old, but standing timidly as she did at barely five feet two, with little brown curls framing her dimpled brown face, she did not at first glance bear testimony to such weight of years. Her small hands fluttered nervously with gloves and chain. Her big brown eyes gazed out, appalled and ap- pealing at the crowd that surged her way. "Are--are you Roberta Lowell," gasped Rowena, "No wonder they call you Bobby," said Peter, Rowena rallied first, "Never mind, never mind!" she announced with a quick assumption of severity. "This is Bobby, and I'm the chaperon." A few minutes later, the Rack- ruff roadster swept into Broadway and turned south, and the cheers of the assembled witnesses rattled the plateglass windows of the show: rooms. "You were right, Peter," con- fessed Rowena kindly, when they slowed for the first traffic light. "We should certainly have looked her over," They were rolling steadily along the Jersey side of the river when Rowena and Peter had their first argument. Rowena considered the ideal plan for them to tear along at a high rate of speed, stopping for nothing until they reached the Rocky Mountains, : And Peter didn't agree with her. Peter's idea was to drive along at a fair speed. He said that if they tore furiously along over roads, good and bad, through boiling heat and chill ing rain, they would reach a point of interest, tired, cross and worn out, hence unable to turn out the high-class work that Rackruff had a right to expect of them. Rowena said that for her part she always worked best under pressure, that something in her responded strongly to hard driving, and that she enjoying working when she was breathless, almost panting with haste. Peter, in that annoyingly gentle, almost disinterestedly lazy voice of his, said he didn't; said he couldn't work at all unless he had a breathful of fresh air in his lungs and quiet comfort in his heart. "And of course," said Rowena cuttingly, "we will do it your way. Naturally you think good pictures are the most important part of the whole business." "Of course," said Peter simply. Rowena was speechless with rage. She was glad she had always hated artists anyhow, it made hating Peter now so much more natural. He was telling himself that he was very glad Rowena was pretty. It would be pleasant painting her, He didn't care in the least about her di<posi- tion. This was a business trip. Tt just goes to show the sort that Peter was that he never even sus- pected that Rowena was furious. A sudden ulping sob close at hand startled him from his com- fortable revery. He looked sharply at Rowena, who sat rigidly erect and stonyfaced beside him, blue eyes glittering ice cold. "Are~-are you crying?" he asked doubtfully. "Me ?---Most certainly not! I hope you don't think for a minute you could make me cry!" ejaculated Rowena. Peter listened. It came again, low and unmistakable, the gulping sob of a weeping woman. They looked back over their shoulders. The little brown chaperon was slumped deep in the rumble seat, her head bowed low, small shoulders rising and falling with great sobs, Peter pulled to the side of the road and stopped the car, and both he and Rowena leaned back through the window. "Why, what's the matter, darl- ing?" asked Rowena solicitously. "Don't you feel well?" The small brown head shook vig- orously from side to side. "I==I'm lonesome," confessed a sad small voice. "C-Carter~didn't come to see me off." "C-Carter?" asked Rowena and Peter in chorus "We're engaged. I thought surely adverti stunt. At the | go b; he would come to see me off, and he didn't. 1 wish 1 hadn't come, 1 fcel Yety badly, Maybe I'd better Stricken each with sudden fear that the chaperon might fail them «and they no farther west than the Hudson River--Rowena and Peter got hurriedly out and ran back to her, standing on either side while Rowena tenderly wiped the tear-stained face with a wisp of handkerchief and Peter patted both small brown hands with great vigor, "I wrote him a very formal note," Bobby went on, "and said good-by, and told him he wouldn't need to bother taking me out places any more and sending me presents and flowers, for 1 was going on a long motor trip with some dear friends and would be gone a long time, and was starting on Monday mornin at ten o'clock from the Rackru salestoom on Broadway, and of course I thought he would be there to see me off, and he wasn't." Grief quite overcame her, and she would have slid clear off the rumble ROWENA RIDES ble seat, Rowena was able to break in on Bobby's love-affair long enough to voice her disagreement = with Peter's plans when she want- = ed to, which was pretty often. 1 went without saying that they did not agree about the financial man- agement of the trip. Rackruff Mo- 28 tors, Inc, had agreed to pay all G expenses for the car en route, and 2% had allowed Peter and Rowena a3 joint salary of one hundred dollars a weck--an cxpense allowance, it = was really. i Peter's idea of the way to carry 8 on was obviously the simplest and 8 most natural. He said he would® pay expenses for both of them ant then divide equally with Rowena whatever was left of the hundred dollars at the end of each week. 8 Rowena said it wouldn't do. In the end, Peter agreed to divide each week's allowance with her in mediately upon its receipt every' Monday morning, each thereafter paying his own bills, bearing his' ® own responsibility, and saving what he could from the amount, iy & Fouyden vB "I--I'm lonesome," confessed Bobby, in a sad, small voice. seat into the bottom of the car if Peter hadn't caught her firmly and drawn her back. "Don't you care, darling," said Rowena, "Men are all like that. They aren't worth crying about." "You mustn't feel like that," said Peter gently, "He was probably so ashamed he couldn't bear to face you. That's the way I am. The more ashamed I feel the more--the MOF ems" "The more away you stay, I sup- pose," said Rowena coldly. "Exactly," assented Peter, "But, he knows how dangerous motor trips are," sobbed Bobby, "He knows I'm likely to be killed any minute, or at least maimed for life." "All alike," repeated Rowena grimly. "That's probably why he didn't come," said Peter comfortingly. "He realized that at thought of you going away into such terrible danger he would lose his self-control and break down before all those people. And then think how he'd feel" Bobby thought of it. "But Carter's not like that," she said. "I don't believe he'd break down. He's not at all the breaking-down kind of man. He's got red hair---" "Well, he might pretend he broke down," insisted Peter. "All pretence, every one of them," declared Rowena sweepingly. "It's terrible lonesome, going off on such a long trip without having Carter there to be ashamed of him- self and feel sorry," said Bobby. "I tell you what, darling," sug- gested Rowena brightly. "You come around here and sit with Peter and let him cheer you up. He's very good company. It's too lonesome for you back there alone." "But you said I had to sit in the rumble seat!" "Well, I've changed my mind. You see, I thought then that Peter and I' would want to talk business and discuss our plans, and I never dreamed that every time I made a suggestion it would just lead to a bitter argument." "Why, I didn't argue with you," protested Peter. "I'd much rather sit in the rumble seat where I can think my thoughts in peace and not have my most in- nocent ideas contradicted before they are out of my mouth," con- tinued Rowena. "Why, 1 wasn't you," protested Peter, But Rowena insisted, so Peter helped Bobby gently out of the rumble seat and was just turning to give Rowena a hand when he saw that she was already in, sitting very erect, chin high and eyes ex- tremely blue. $o he got in behind the wheel and they started off again. Rowena settled back in the rum- ble scat with a malicious little grin. After listening to Bobby's chatter about Carter for an hour, she lean- ed forward. "Da you mind if I close this win. dow?" she asked sweetly. "I'm try- ing to think out the plot of a story and I must have perfect silence to decide whether want to have Bobby's Carter commit the murder or be committed." : From that moment the rumble seat was Rowena's own. She seemed to take a morbid leasure in providing comfort for her privacy, and often smiled to her- self in complacent and not unma- licious satisfaction when she hear the steady soft roll of Bobby's voice regaling Peter with vivid accounts about Carter and their last quarrel which caused her to apply for the contradicting we. i eter was in possession of a com- lete biography of Carter long be ore they reached Buffalo, where they were to Ray their first official visit to the Rackruff salesrooms, and where he was to make his first picture of the roadster and Rowena. For all the seclusion of the rum- | Even before they reached Buffal he realized it would have bee money in his pocket to have stuc to his original idea. Certainly i was no great drain on the expens account buying food for Rowena.) While motoring in the fresh air] made both him and Bobby raven ously hungry, so that they wished to cat often, fully and expensively, it] seemed to have no cffect whatever} upon Rowena, who ate so rarely and so little that Bobby accused her of trying to reduce, "Well," smiled Peter good-natur- edly, "if you carry on like this for the next three months you will get rich off your share of the expense account."

New York, N.Y, -- The hoboes| are planning a university of their own, They talked it over here recently at a convention in As- toria Hall, and decided that the school would begin functioning as soon as the third floor of the building can be repaired. It's to be a regular college, where the hoboes can study philosophy, sociology, history and similar subjects. The school will be known as the James Eads Howe Memorial University, in memory of the late "millionaire hobo." The hobo university will not have the ex-§ tensivé plant of some institutions of higher learning--the rent will be only $35 a month---bgt it liopes to have good teachers. Dan O'Rrien, chairman of the meet" ing, sald well known educators will be sought as guest lecturers. | The university also will have a room for a hoboes' welfare bur- | eau.
