Was a busy seven days.
IjOttie gave notice to her employer
that she was leaving, and did it in
such a way that Henri, bursting into
aggrieved tears, demanded that she
pack up her belongings and go im
mediately.
Lottie did that. She had no
sooner reached her apartment than
the telephone rang.
"J'm not at home,” she told Sal
lie. "If jt's for me, it’s Henri. He
probably wants to ask me to come
back.”
T'n voice at the other end of the
Wire was Henri's.
‘But Miss Carr never can be
reached at home in the day time,”
Sallip explained deftly. "Miss Carr
is employed.”
Therp was a Gallic sputter at the
other end of the connection. Sallie's
manner was composed as she an
swered,
"Oh, you are Miss Carr's employ
er? She did not come in today?”
There was a pause and then Sallie
said. "Oh, I see!”
With one hand over the transmit

The Real Fight
IT may hr Hoover versus Roose- I
velt, in November as far as the I
rest of the nation is concerned, but
In Indiana the campaign is between
that wily and conscienceless poli
tician, Senator James E. Watson,
and Frederick Van Nuys.
For if Watson defeats Van Nuys
for senator, then Indiana will go
Republican all the way down the
line: and if Van Nuys succeeds in
ousting the senate veteran, then
the state is safely Democratic..
Leaders of both parties realize
this and especially Everett San
ders, Republican national commit
tee chairman, a native Hoosier, who
knows that to save his party Jim
must make the grade.
Because this state’s fourteen elec
toral votes are in the doubtful col
umn this year, and because “big and
selfish business” has its foremost
champion, Indiana is to be the scene
of one of the most bitter political
hattles in its history.
The great interests, whose cause
Watson has championed to the det
riment of the ordinary citizen,
realize that they must “save Jim”
and money is expected to be poured
into the state G. O. P. coffers.
Contrary to widespread belief over
the nation, Watson is not a front
runner in his home state. Hoosiers
for years have viewed “Promising
Jim” with suspicion.
tt tt tt
Add to this the fact that the Re
publican state convention has left
many sore spots, and it is charged
openly by various Governor aspir
ants that they had been “double
crossed” by Watson and it is easy
to perceive that the astute James
is in a bad spot.
Analysis of results of elections in
which Watson has figured prove
conclusively that if Watson goes
down, the ticket is doomed.
In 1916, when Indiana went Re
publican, Watson trailed his running
mate, Senator Harry New, by ap
proximately 2.000 votes. In 1920.
when the Democrats were smoth
ered and Watson ran for the long
term, he lagged thousands behind
Harding.
Six years later, “Promising Jim,”

all right. He wants to hire you
back.”
"Tell him I haven’t come in yet"
Lottie instructed. “Say you'll deliver
the message when you see me."
Obligingly Sallie compiled. She
put down the telephone, saying
"So you're really going to South
America, are you?”
Lottie sensed worry in Sallie's
tone and hastily explained Mona's
plan in regard to the apartment.
“I'll pay half the rent until the
lease expires anyhow. That'll be
next October. I want a home to
come back to.”
"Maybe I can get another girl to
come in while you are gone and save
you that expense."
Lottie shook her head. "It's all
right. Get another girl to come in
if you like, but get her out again
when I come back, won't you?
"Meanwwhile, I'll swing my share
of the rent. I can afford it,” she
added, "and It’s nice to have a place
to come back to.”
a a a
THE days flew by. Besieged at
the telephone by a repentant
Henri, who had not taken her an
nouncement of anew job and de
parture from town seriously. Lottie
finally capitulated to the extent of
working two afternoons.
The little apartment was piled
with luggage. A wardrobe trunk
stood open, filled with a careful
selection of clothes. Sallie brought
a nurse who had lived in the tropics
and offered much advice.
"Take cotton clothing.” she in
sisted. “Even cotton underwear. It’s
much cooler. Be sure all your hose
are light colored. Mosquitoes feast
on darker shades.”
She urged Lottie to take plenty
of cotton frocks and leather instead
of rubber soled sports shoes. Laun
dry was cheap, but not rapid. The
whose ready pledges and still readier
breaking of them had revealed his
true policy of “self above party or
friends,” had to make the race with
out the aid of a national ticket.
This campaign came during a pe
riod of indictment of high Repub
lican officials and on the heels of
the Reed congressional inquiry into
the Ku-Klux Klaft activities in the
state with which Watson’s name was
linked.
tt tt
When the polls closed at 6 p. m.,
Nov. 2. 1926, Watson was defeated—
his friends today conpede that.
Four days later, Lake county elec
tion officials, after receiving and
studying the results from other
counties, decided to announce the
vote in their county and it was as
follows: Watson, 20.588; Albert
Stump, Democrat, 8,124.
Watson was re-elected by 11.383
votes.
That’s his history in past elec
tions. But there should be a dif
ferent story in 1932.
Van Nuys, the Democratic nomi
nee. a former state senator, state
chairman and district attorney, is
considered one of the best cam
paigners and stump speakers in the
county.
Where Jim makes promises and
plenty of these with fingers crossed,
Van Nuys meets him with a sincer
ity unquestioned and ability un
doubted.
During the last few weeks, the
Democratic nominee has spoken be
fore thousands in the state. At no
time has his sincerity been ques
tioned.
In his more than thirty years of
political actfvity, Watson has spoken
before millions in Indiana—at no
time has his sincerity been be
lieved.
Because of this, scores of Re
publicans are pledging their sup
port to Van Nuys.
And Lake county, which saved
Watson in 1926, now has a Demo
cratic prosecuting attorney and a
Democratic sheriff, so there should
be no repetition of the voting of
floaters and ballot tampering which
characterized the 1926 election.
And that alone makes it tough on
Jim.
girls would need plenty of clothes.
They ordered plenty.
Lottie, whirling back and forth
between her own apartment and
Mona's home, arrived with this bit
of that "tricky little
model just Mona's size,” this hint
as to seasickness.
"I hear the Miranda is a regular
tub,” she insisted, “and that means
mal de mer with a vengeance.”
Mona was equally busy. There
were papers to sign, the house to
close, servants to discharge tempo
rarily and pay for the interval.
Mona was too recently removed
from the terrors of a lost job to do
anything except what she consid
ered the right thing by her em
ployes.
The girls bought cameras, dark
glasses, magazines <the Miranda
carried no supply. fancy little deck
bags to hold glasses, books and
handkerchiefs.
A supply of a remedy for seasick
ness. Ma brought this delightedly.
Mrs. Callahan had told her about it.
"How does your family feel about
the trip?” Lottie asked Mona.
“Great. I'll see Bud. you know’.”
a a a
THEY packed articles of lin
gerie by the dozen, for the trip
was a long one.
"The booklet says that we can
get laundry done at several ports
of call while we are waiting,” ob
jected Mona. "Do we need all
these things in our cabin?”
"Laundresses come down to the
boat,” Sallie informed her amusedly.
"Very dressy laundresses, wearing
the duds other travelers were silly
enough to entrust to them on earlier
voyages!”
“They’ll have to leave a deposit,
then," Lottie declared.
Raincoats and umbrellas for the
rainy season. Chiffons for even
ing. Very little silk., and countless
hose!
"It seems too bad to leave all those
knockout clothes here,” Lottie
murmured, referring to her beloved
evening dresses. ‘"But it would be
worse to take them and have them
ruined.”
Mona had met with little diffi
culty in booking passage. An offi
cial from the Virgin islands had
canceled a suite.
It was, obviously, the best to be
had on the Miranda and Mona
promptly engaged it.
There were telephone calls, good
bys, last minute purchases.
Sallie rushed to buy a six-month
stock of cosmetics and packed them
compactly and cleverly in a single
small overnight bag.
"What are you going to do with
the Empress?” Lottie asked. She
had hoped that a quixotic urge
would insist that Mona present it
to Steve.
"Leave it with Withington’s, of
course.” Mona had decided against
taking any jewels except her wed
ding ring. They would prove only
a burden.
u n tt
MONDAY came and went. Tues
day. Wednesday. They were
to sail Wednesday afternoon at
four.
The baggage had gone aboard
the day before. Only the last few
things remained to be done. A sin
gle suitcase for last-minute packing
lay open on the chaise longue.
For the most part Mona had lim
ited her wardrobe to black and
white color to wear in the heat. It
was warm and out of keeping with
tropical surroundings.
"Mourning isn’t used as much as
it has been,” she told Lottie. "And,
even though I am looking for some
way to get around the will, I loved
my husband.
“In a way, I mean. In every way
except the way I love Barry. That
last day John promised to do for
Barry what I am trying to find a
way to do now.”
“Wait until we see Steve,” Lottie
advised. “Steve is the boy who will
show us how.”
"Maybe. If he and Barry aren’t
furious with us for showing up.”
“That’s a thought. That is a
thought. Mona!” Lottie paused in
