CHAPTER XXI
JUDY walked to the stand, limp-
ing a little because one foot
bad a high-heeled slipper and the
other foot hit bottom with every
step.
"Miss Allen.?" the voice of the
law asked, carefully noting the
disheveled copper curls, the shad-
ows under the purple eyes.
"Yes. Your Honor."
"Are you willing to state that
the stories and photographs of you
in these morning papers are, with-
out doubt, yourself?"
The lost dimples played around
Judy's mouth for a second.
"I didn't come down any too
gracefully, did I?" 'he asked. "In
this pose even my skirts are bal-
looning."
She heard laughter. The judge
rapped for silence.
Judy looked up in surprise. "I'm
sorry. You see, my father is a
Common Pleas judge, too, so I
forgot to be scared." She gave
• the judge on the bench a dazzling
smite. "Yes, I'm in the pictures.
I haven't read the articles. I'm
sorry."
"Will you please tell the rourt
what happened?" The judge !
leaned back and relaxed. Several |
times he covered his amusement
with a long hand which he passed !
over his face.
At the end he set Judy's bond
at $1000. She did not flinch. "I
cannot meet the amount," she
stated us calmly as the associate
editor of Under Twenty should
state her facts. "If I may get in
touch with my father or my fiance
I shall be able to meet the bond
you are setting, and obtain a
lawyer instantly."
• • •
was led away at once. Sandy
followed but she swung a
heavy door closed before he
reached it.
"Where are the telephones?" she
asked the attendant who was guid-
ing her. She wondered what peo-
ple did when they were in jail
and didn't have a nickel with
which to summon the operator lor
a call.
The officer who was conducting
her on her various missions was
genial and sympathetic. Judy
smiled again. "Officer, will you
lend me a nickel until I summon
an operator? Or better still, will
you call the operator for me?"
The man grinned sheepishly,
found a dime in his pocketbook,
and gave it to Judy. She dialed,
heard the click which returned
the coin and reached from the
booth to give the officer the
money.
"It's a station to station call,
collect," she told the operator.
"It's terribly important."
"That number does not answer,"
the smooth, metallic voice of the
operator reported in a moment.
''Would you like to try another
number?"
Judy gave her father's office
number at the court. The call
was accepted by Judge Allen's
secretary who said: "Judy? Your
father is in court. He expected to
hear from you so he left a mes-
sage. I'll read it" She opened
u crisp paper whose rustling car-
ried across the wires.
to reach her again, but she turned
away and held her white, rouge-
less face high. In her cell a new
blue calico waited for her. There
were white stripes on it. Plainly
it stood for something like "Wom-
en's Department."
"Been told that you'll be more
likely to get cold in that lace
stuff," the matron said. "I'll save
the white dress until you want it.
How soon will you be checking
out?"
"I don't know," Judy answered.
"Maybe not ever—because no-
body will loan me the money for
bond, let alone for my fine and
costs."
"When do you appear before
the Municipal Court?"
From some weary compartment
of her mind where she had stored
other half-heard suggestions, Judy
summoned the answer. "Day ultci
tomorrow."
"Then what will happen?"
"I'll probably go to the state
reformatory for women and leara
to make hooked rugs."
"Have no connection with Judy's i <^HE was afraid, more afraid than
a- " she wanted to reveal, so she
escapade. Grant no advice. Judg- '
ment and taste inexorably bad.
Refuse any responsibility for bail.
Time she learned a lesson."
rpiIE world was small and close
and tight. The world was no
bigger than this telephone booth.
That faint voice that tried to speak
was not hers. Just the same, it
said, "I can make him understand.
I was kidnaped! It wasn't a stunt.
Can't you make him see?"
"Your father is furious. Sorry,
Judy, but I'm not much help.
I'll get in all the words 1 can.
He wouldn't take any calls at all
from you last night."
"Calls—from me?" Judy's voice
laughed.
.She asked for a telegraph blank
and sent two telegrams, collet.:.
200 words each. One went to her
father. The other went to Phil.
Now surely answers would
come. Perhaps her family had not
understood. Maybe Philip thought
she had gone sky-iiding for the
daring of It. Now Sandy woulu
have understf^pt—Sandy! If it
hadn't been for his crazy, barn-
storming theft of her, she would
be married to Phil and wearing :
diamond circlet.
Suddenly she looked at the two-
karat diamond engagement ring
she wore. It was nice. If Phil
whispered. "I didn't call. I've J wanted it she would put it in a
been locked up with a rat that
likes to eat. Is—is Philip still at
the hotel?"
"Ob, yes, he approves every-
thing your father does."
Judy did not say goodby. She
hung up so quietly even the young
officer outside the door didn't
know she had finished.
She asked to be escorted to her
cell then.
She was aware that Sandy tried
black velvet box and send it back,
though.
Half an hour passed. Then an-
other. On and on. Regularly
either an attendant. r the matron
came to Judy's cell i t plead for
an admittance for Sandy. He
wrote notes which she returned
unopened. Finally, at 4 o'clock
she received a telegram.
She opened it, with trembling
fingers, and turned to the sigr.a-
ture.
