"Of course, 1 believe you, child!....... If you weren't so young you'd know that you can't pay much attention to what men say. They're just little boys. and you have to deal with them as if they hadn't any sense," said Mrs. Kingsway briskly. Mrs. Kingsway kissed her, drove off smiling. Helen shivered.

The monthly meeting of the motion picture group was to be that night in Doris' father's ballroom. Helen dressed herself wearily, brushed out her dark gold curls, pull- ed her hat down on them without loking and went there. There was no sensation to it. 'There didn't seem to be anything. ' 'Not even when Doris ran up to her, bright-eyed, excited, happy, and flung her arms around her and whispered to her about Ronny. "Oh, he's been such a darling! We're going to tyke a little room over in Wayne beginning next Monday." she imparted in a joyous, Lurying whisper. "As soon as Ronny's week's up an dhe has his wages. Don't tell yet! Oh, it's going to be wonderful to get away from Aunt Louisa!" Don't tell!" Helen echoed indign- antly. Her whole life's hanpiness had been sacrificed to Doris' senseless secrecy... And then she checked her- self, What happened now made no difference not even when Ethan learn ed that he had been in the wrong. She had been so deev in thought, sitting in a corner of the room star. ing up before her, that she was spok- en to twice before she looked up. Doris was near her again.
