ACCEPTING ASSIGNMENTS By SEFTON LEE. vV > ?I run (J run by mm among t li*? pillow# on tli<k window aeati Her mother and fattier mix) her aunt and uncle, who had come in to spend ttio evening, sat around tin* fireplace. Joan's brother Jack. who stood by the llt>rury table pulling a cigarette, picked up the Kve 11 iiii4 Argus and l<u?k?*<l carelessly over Its four page*. "<;??)?! A deaf and dumb and blind man could get up umre news than this paper prints," was Ids sweeping erlt I('|S(II. The thoughtless brother had given Joan a suggestion which she thought over all during the evening. The next morning tfhc aatonlshed Mr. Archibald Kdwards by appearing In his sanctum j ami asking for a Job as reporter on i the Argus. "Why, Miss (jranhy, pothiug would please me more If It were practicable, ? r even possible," stammered the. sur prised editor. "Now, Mr. Kdwards, lirsl Irt me tell you what a practical and possible plan I have." .Iran was convincingly In earnest, ami she nuule a charming pic ture in a trim blue cheviot suit and a Highland cup with a hit of plaid rib bon dangling from it. II dark eyes Hashed and hrr eo'nr derprncd as she unfolded hrr plan, which was to aroiiso thr siielal and civic spirit of Marshton h.\ a persistent appeal through the Argus. There was to bo a column headed. "It's I'p (o You." an other headed, "How thr Women Can Help," and another, "Marshton's Many Merits." An hour later Mr. I'M wards was nn able to tell whether it was the bonnlt smiles of the applicant or the plausl billty of her plan that had induced hliu to "take her on." The j lau worked so well that a few weeks alter Jean began her work on that paper there were many evidences that Marshton was beginning to shaki ofT Its sochd and civic stagnation. In the Argus office rushing activity be came the daily program in all depart ments. On the same morning that the fore man's wife telephoned the olllee of her husband's illness with the grip Mr. I'M wards bad a violent sel/.uiv of lumbago. Jean facod the crisis brave ly, but she realized, the impossibility of getting the paper out in any sort of shape with th<> two mainstays of the machiiirry missing. Shr reinrm b- red having hranl Mr. I-Mwards say tiiat bis nephew, now a rrporter on a city daily, bad been a uio>t promising all-round newspaper worl.ri when lie l> ft i!n Ai'L"i- i a f w yrars bc fi> *? ?. ?::-,ihin. had'l ? ?! ai-. ? 11i??!; ly, and JMl> decided to telegraph for the nephew. fur there waan't an avall able man In Marahtou. It wtta theu too o'clock and tho ttrat edition should he out by one, ho Jean rolled up the HleeveH of her aoft white ! shirtwaist, and for the next throe | hours lluttser?*l bade and forth from editorial desk to composing and print* Idk rooms, It wua 1 :.H0 when the first edition was out, She wuh turning the damp pugea of a paper Just off the preas when tho offlee door opened and a tall, broad shouldered man entered the room, It had evidently heen more than a few years since that man had been merely a promising laiy, yet Jean rightly guessed (hat ho wus Mr. Kdwarda' nephew. "Mr. Bert Kdwarda?" she asked, and there waa a alight twinkle i:t the man's gray eyes as he Inclined his head af firmatively. "I am Mis.s Uranby, special writer on the Argus, btit today I've been ed itor and foreman as well. I'm going to a?k you to take hold of the fore man's work at once so as to get the home edition out promptly. When that is done we can work together on tomorrow's editorial page. I've got to give the next two hours to some special Interview stuff.' Thus coolly did Jean assume the generalship, and the tall man accepted the assignment without letting her ace his amused smile as he turned away. For the next two days, he did cheerfully and went about what should be done. On the morning of the third day Mr. Kdwards returned to the office. "Bert, my boy, it was like you to help me out In a pinch," he said, In greeting Ills nephew, "and Miss (trun by. It was like you to know what to do In an emergency. I'm glad you sent for Bert. But how did your chief happen to let you off, Bert ?" I "I'm pretty much my chief. Uncle (Jcorge, and I had two capable young fellows to leave at my desk." "At your desk? Why, what's your position now?" asked his uncle. "City editor," said Bert quietly, with a Meeting glance at Jean, who van ished blushingly into the next room. Half an hour late, when Mr. Kd wards was deep in his accumulation of mail. Bert ? neountered Jean among some old newspaper tiles. She came to him at once with her hand extended in apology, and her shy confusion helped to make her unusually attrac tive looking. "I hope I haven't seemed unpardon ably priggish." *?he *ai'l. "giving as signments to ;i superior. I was so concerned about get'ing out the paper that I lo<1 all sense <?j everything else for a time." B-rt held her hand and looked straight into her eyes.
