"STOLEN LOVE" bu HAZEL LIVINGSTON COF/Rmm'BYKlHti c,YKD:-:A7E, inC.
STOLEN LOVE By Hazel Livingston CHAPTER 1 “I don’t want any foolishness,” Aunt Evvie used to say when Joan as a child begged for a pet or a playmate." And, “I don’t want any foolishness,” she still said, when seventeen-year old Joan asked for silk stockings, or permission to stay and play tennis after school. That settled it so far as Aunt Evvie was concerned. But “foolishness” is not so easily settled when you are seventeen, and it’s spring. It was April. The lilacs on the old Van Fleet place had burst into bloom over night. Yesterday they were tight, dark buds, and now the feathery blossoms sprayed over the summer house and dripped, a glorious purple tide, onto the sun-blis-tered bench beside it. Joan grinned impishly and kissed the sweet green wood of the lilac tree. Joan was always loving things—the little new green shoots in the old cypress hedge, the swelling buds on the rose bushes, the poor, rusty iron deer, who had stood for so many years firmly planted in the middle of the garden. When you aren’t allowed to have real friends you have to have makebelieve ones. At least Joan did. Major, the deer, was the best beloved of them all. Many were the warm kisses she had pressed on his cold iron nose, many the tearful secrets she had poured into his deaf and rusty ear. Major! Silly name for a deer, but she was only three, •nd thought he was a dog when she named him that. Perhaps, she thought, the doggish name would five him a little more life, inspire im to pick up his iron heels and run “wuof-woofing” around the yard like the Sedgwicks’ dog next door. Joan was always imagining things. “Silly thing!” Mrs. Heeley, peeling potatoes at the kitchen window, watched her disgustedly. “She’s been up to somethin’!” The parings slid in thin spirals froi.9 her red, bony hands, onto tbe news-paper-covered drain board. “Wait till Miss Evvie gets after her . . . she'll catch it!” There was an odd exulting gleam in her sunken old eyes, something vicious in the way she handled the sharp little paring knife. “Old Crazy Heeley,” the Sausalito children called her. Thirty-seven years she had worked for the Van Fleets. “Workin’ my fingers to the bone, takin’ Miss Evvie's lip, and no decent wages . . . they’ll see when I’m gone . . .” She was always threatening to quit. But she never did. She hated change. She hated Joan, too. Joan—who was young when she and the “Van Fleet” girls were old. Joan—with, the too red, too laughing mouth. Joan—with the fly-a-way golden hair, tomboy Joan, always rushing and running and tumbling over things, never stopping to grow up into a proper young lady. “Lookit her now. Playin’ with them flowers like they was human. I’ve a good mind to call her in »n’—” The big front door, swollen after the long rains, creaked loudljuon its heavy hinges. A voice on the front porch, authoritative, manly, No need for Heeley to call Joan. Miss Evvie would see to everything. Joan picked up her feet slowly. Her heavy common-sense shoes scraped on the patch. They weren’t dancing feet any more. The little secret smile had faded. Joan was afraid of Aunt Ewie. Aunt Evvie had found out; somebody must have told on her. She might have known. Aunt Evvie always found out . . . Aunt Evvie was waiting in the very middle of the big red rug in the library. She stood, square and crisp in her stiff white shirt-waist and black alpaca skirt, a blackbrowed executioner, waiting for the culprit Over in her corner near the ugly, •ir-tight stove, Aunt Babe pulled her pink ice-wool shawl closer over her narrow shouldeis, and rocked vfryfast. The disciplining of Joan, though pleasurably exciting, was nerve wracking, and likely to give her a headache. Evvie never knew when to stop. “So you spent the afternoon with lhe Sedgwick girls!” Aunt Evvie’s

voice was heavy, bass, almost like a man’s. Joan’s head went up. She had fighting blood. “Yes, I did!” “Liar!” Evvie spat the word out “Liar! A girl that will lie, that will sneak, and—” “I didn’t lie! I said I spent the afternoon with Hilda and Anne, and I did—” “At a dance hall, a common, public—” "A dancing class. Aunt Ewie! Everybody at school goes—all the nice girls, Hilda and Anne, and Dorothy Nailor. You can’t say the Sedgwicks and the Nailors aren’t nice—-" “Very nice, I’m sure.” Ewie folded her arms on her militant chest, and dropped her voice to a sugary rumble. Sarcasm was one of her favorite weapons. “Quite as nice as the riff-raff that attends. Maybe nicer. But— in the future you will have nothing more to do with these nice girls! I forbid you to speak to them, except as may be necessary in school. Is that quite clear? Let us not misunderstand each other again—” “But Aunt Ewie—they are my

friends—almost the only ones!” Poor Joan’s voice was shaking a little in spite of herself. She couldn’t lose Hilda and Anne—she must make Aunt Evvie see. “Oh, please listen. You don’t understand! I’ll promise never to dance again if you’ll only just let me—” “Dinner is served!” Mrs. Heeley put her head in ti>e doorway. Her thin face was flushed with excitement. “Dinner is served, ladies!” Aunt Babe got up and led the way automatically cross the hall into the dining room. The others followed. Evvie tasted her soup. “It’s cold. Heeley—take it out!” Heeley glowered. Babe hastily tasted hers. “Why, sister, it isn’t cold—” “I said take it out!" Heeley flounced out, muttering. They heard her banging around in the kitchen, talking to herself. Evvie was hardly conscious of it. She began on Joan again. "This—-this dancing teacher came here. She had the effrontery to call here, while you were dawdling on your way home. Wanted money so that you could learn dancing. Money—” Joan’s face was flaming. “I never asked for any! I just went with the girls to visit, and she let rne dance this afternoon—free—” “Free! Humph! Throw a sprat to catch a mackerel. Well, she caught no mackerel- you’ll do no dancing." “I never asked—” “No. you wormed your way in free. Free! A Van Fleet—” “I’m not a Van Fleet. I’m a Hastings—” Evvie's lip curled. “It's nothing to be proud of. The less you say about that father of yours to me—” “Sister! Please—” Aunt Babe reached a skinny, trpmbling hand across the table. “You forget yourself—” But the black-browed old woman, and the golden-haired girl didn't oven see her. There was no stopping them now. The fight was on. “Pioud! I’m not proud of anything. What have I gut to be proud

of? Cotton stockings—when every other girl in school has silk! Patches. Crazy old clothes. I’m ths laughing stock of the whole school. But I could stand that if you’d let me be like the rest—play basket ball, and go on hikes and all. You never let me have a single bit of fun my whole life. And when anybody like Hilda tolerates me a little ’cause she knows it isn’t my fault I can’t go anywhere, then you want to stop that—” “Joan!” Aunt Babe was holding her head, crying weakly. “Joan, my heart, I can’t stand it!” “Babe! Keep out of this, will you?” Evvie’s face was purple. Her hand on the water goblet at her place was shaking. Joan went right on, heedless of them. “I never had any fun! I’m the only girl in the school now that can’t dance. I don’t even know • boy. Every girl I know goes to dancing class on Wednesdays, ft doesn't cost much. I guess all my mother's share of grandfather's money isn't gone. She’d have let me go—she’d know. How am I ever to meet any boys, when I can’t—” Aunt Evvie’s glass snapped m
her fingers. The water dripped off the fine damask cloth onto the faded carpet in a forlorn, slow trickle. She pushed her chair back—stood up, pointing a thick, trembling finger at Juan. “Boys! It’s come to that already! Boys! You poor, misguided girl! And money—-don’t talk to me about your mother’s share! If I hadn't been the businessman of this family, investing and saving like I have—” “But you did lose on that oil stock!” Babe quavered. That word —oil was enough to madden Ewie. She had never admitted even to herself, how much she had lost on that. She had plunged to recover the losses on the cactus farm lands and the Florida real estate. The last vestige of her self-con-trol vanished. "Don’t show your ignorance!” she snarled at Balie. “We’d all be in the poorhouse now if it wasn’t for me. Now keep out of this. I’m going to settle Joan Hastings, right now. I’m talking about boys—boys! She’s boy-struck like her mother. Do you hear me, you silly girl? It’s boys I’m trying to save you from. We lived down one disgrace in this family—” “Evvie!” Babe was pleading. Her hands were clasped. “After all these years—nobody knows. You wouldn’t tell her?” “Wouldn’t I? It’s been told at every tea party we didn’t go to for seventeen years, and don’t you evei think it hasn’t. Skeleton in the closet! Bah! Skeleton on the clothes lines—that’s what ours has been!” Again the thick finger pointed at the shrinking Joan. "1 don’t want that all over again—do you hear me? I won’t have it.” “You won’t have what?” “Evvie, for my sake — please!’ Babe’s frizzed gray head was down on the tabic now. Little sighs and moans. Stifled sobs. Her thinveined hand reached for her hand kerchief. And Joan, her cheeks flaming, her tawny hair pushed back, panting. “TelUnie—you’ve got to tell me now- you've got to—" (To Be Continued Tomorrow)
