On the previous evening Jimmy and Janet had left Butch and Adelaide together at Pussycat Inn and had gone to the apartment of Mil- dred Warren, Jimmy's sister, whe it. She and enjoys, realizes that even Mildred is mot entirely happyd Her thoughts now, however, are all with Adelaide. The Search Boging Janet promised the distraught Mrs. Morris that she would come over at once. She put up the receiver and fairly flew up the stairs to her room. She was dressed and down again in five minutes and in another minute had crossed the marrow porch and entered the Morris house. Adélaide"s mother was a woebe- gone picture, She was wearing a soiled pink kimono, her hair was in flaxen strings about her fat face, and her eyes were red and puffy from crying. "Oh, Janet," she walled, "What will I do? I know, something tells me she's dead, my little baby, my poor Adelaide. And I don't know how I can tel her father--he's down in West Virginia--how can I ever tell him? Oh, where is she--tell me Janet, you were with her at the last ----what has happened to her? Don't keep anything from me, my heart is broken, but I must know what hap- pened to her--" and Mrs. Morris broke into a fresh storm of weeping. In spite of her appearance and her hysterical words Janet felt very sorry for Adelaide's mother, She felt "guilty, too, about Adelaide, perhaps it she and Jimmy had stayed longer Barbara Webb Copyright by Public Ledger have happened. She sat down on the sofa with its green plush cover and pulled Mrs. Morris down beside » "I'm sure Adelaide is all right," she began, "she's gone to some friend's house to spend the night and is still asleep. You'll get a telephone call from her presently--" "No, Janet," Mrs. Morris spoke very solemnly, "You can't know '| what is in a mother's heart at a time like this. A mother knows, I feel that Adelaide will not be back." Janet was nonplussed. There was such deep conviction in Mrs, Morris' voice, such a queer dignity that came over her suddenly, that Janet was impressed in spite of herself. "Let me tell you about last night," she said gently, "Maybe you will understand better what Adelaide may be doing, why you haven't heard from her." © Mrs. Morris leaned back to listen to the story. "We went to Pussycat Inn," Janet began, "and weé had a lot of fun there, but about one o'clock Jimmy and I got tired and came away. Adelaide was still there with Butch and they were having a good time, but I don't suppose they left before two or three, and maybe Ade- laide was too tired to come home and went to stay with some girl friend of Butch's. I know she was perfectly all right when we left, well and happy and just her usual self." "Butch," said Mrs, Morris thought- fully. "Where does he live? Oh, when I think how I trusted him with my little girl--" "Butch is all right," said Janet stoutly, surprised at her own defense of him. "I'm sure Butch is all right. Jimmy liked him and I know he would take good care of Adelaide, no matter what happened." "Where does he live?" Mrs. Morris repeated. "I'm awfully sorry," Janet said, "I don't know--I don't even know his telephone number. We might find him in the telephone book, his real first name is Harry, I know." They looked in the telephone book, but there was no Harry Krause listed in any of the three fat dirBctories that come' with a New York tele phone. Nor could they decide which number was his in the list that Ade- laide had scribbled on the wall where the telephone hung. ¥Addie was always doing that," Mrs~-Morris said mournfully, "Every new boy friend she got she always put his telephone number down on the wall like that, I don't know which is which, I'm sure." "Maybe it's the last ome there," Janet suggested. Mrs. Morris shook her head. "No, it's not--that's some fellow named Tommy. I know that because I've heard her call it, and the one next to that is a fellow named Dick. And some of those numbers I put there myself, I sort of caught the habit from Addie. No, those numbers won't help us any.; Janet was silent, thinking busily, Before she could speak she heard the sound of her parents' footsteps on the adjacent porch. 'There's mother," she sald with relief, "Maybe she can help us, let's call her in" Mrs. Lane came in followed by her husband and they listened to Mrs. Morris' story with lengthening faces. "That settles it, Janet," Mrs. Lane said decidedly when the story was told, "You don't go to any more night clubs. Majiy's the time I've said that girls 0 go to such places come to a bad end----" RHEUMATISM SO VICIOUS HIS CHEEKS AND MOUTH FELT dealer's. TRC" "Mother," Janet said warningly. "I don't mean Addie. Addie was as good a girl as you can find in New York if she was a little wild, but sometimes things happen to girls in those places, no matter how good they are. Now if I was you, Mrs, Morris, I'd send my husband a' tele gram to call me up late tonight. Then if Addie's not back you can have him come home. You'll need a man around if you're going to have to go through any trouble. And then after I did that I'd notify the police--" "Never," sald Mrs. Morris decided- ly. "Never will I have my Addie's name put in the paper that way, think of the disgrace--" "Think of Adelaide, rather," said Mr. Lane dryly. "It doesn't matter 80 much how you find her, but you've got to know pretty soon where she is and maybe the police can help--I don't know much about these things Y--F (To Be Continued Tomorrow) TORONTO Stock Br.
