CHAPTER XXXI ; They both laughed a lot at dinner. There was a big Thanksgiving dinner, with a tremendous turkey, and crystal glasses holding old Mr. Barstow’s pre-prohibition wine. The red berries glowed in the candlelight, the women’s dresses, mauve and rose and blue like rainbows in a dim sky. The others talked . . . trickle of low conversation, tinkle of laughter.. .. Joan and Curtis ate absently, lost in their secret, happy . thoughts. ' He looked at her, slender and!. faintly smiling in her rose-colored , frock, and she looked at him, dear, ’ loyal Curtis, steady and strong and . good. Their eyes met, held each , other, across the white table. Only ’ they were real. The others were shadows, shadows that would soon j go away. “It is very late,’’ Mrs. Barstow j said, when Eugenia, a disgusted , nymph in fluttering mauve chiffon, , had stopped hammering the old ' square piano, and gone yawning to ' bed. “So it is,” Mrs. Lawrence agreed, “and the country air—” Joan stood up. too. “Oh, don’t go yet!” Curtis begged. “Wait till the logs bum down. Mother, tell her it’s her solemn duty to sit up with me a while and see the bouse doesn’t catch fire. Besides I’m going to pop some corn, and I’ll get sick and die if I eat it all alone, and it will be all Joa/Ts fault Joan Hastings, if you go away so early, on our last night—” “But I’ll wake Eugenia then—” “The heck with Eugenia—” “Curtis!” But she stayed. Lyla Barstow saw them, sitting on cushions before the fire before she closed her door. Juan’s slender arms clasped her knees, her hair was a halo of gold light in the dim fire lit room. “I can’t give him up to her—l ean’t—l can’t—” she whispered to her haggard reflection in the mirror. “Oh, Curtis —what can you see in her—” Outside the wind whispered in the trees, raindrops pattered on the shingled roof. The wicker chairs squeaked. Instinctively Joan drew nearer to Curtis ... Curtis ... her only friend. The wind whirled round the small eabin, rattling the branches against the windows. Softly the pine needles brushed the glass, gently, like little hands. Lyla Barstow thought of the days when the cabin was new, those happy long ago days when her husband was living, and Curtis was a little boy. A little boy in kilts filaying with lead soldiers on the iving room floor, knocking them down with his fat baby hands, settin ; them up again, squealing with joy. Rushing to her with every bit of childish news. . . . “Mother, see the red stone I found —look at it— Mother, see —it has a crack in it —” And now he sat in the living room with that girl . . . and she was shut out. Shut out of his heart, because of a girl with a pretty face. They shouldn’t sit up so late. . .. Nora Lawrence would have something witty to say about it in the morning. . , . She went to the door and listened, hardly daring to breathe. How quiet they were. She wanted to call, “Curtis! Curtis! It’s time to go to bed—” the way she did when he was ten. But she couldn’t do that now. Quietly she tip-toed back to bed. She must try to sleep. In the small room off the porch Eugenia stirred uneasily. “This is a fine party, I don't think!” And in the morning when they started for the long ride home, Eugenia didn’t climb into the front seat with Curtis. She left it for Joan. Mrs. Lawrence nudged her —“Get in!” But Gene wouldn’t make the effort. What’s the use? Nobody could do anything with Curtis now. Not until he had time to get over it, at least. "Have a good time?” Francine asked. “Oh, yes!” Joan’s face was glowing—no need to ask. Ruth watched them talking, from a corner. “I’ve got something to tell you,” she telegraphed to Joan. Something about Bill. Joan knew. Always something to bring her back, just when she had made up her mind. She steeled her heart. "What -about?” Ruth pushed her into one of the empty fitting rooms. "Listen—

I Wil Turn’s gone baek to Pasadena. Did you know?” Her round dark eyes were boring into Joan's like gimlets. "No, I didn’t know. Why should I?” "I thought you were such friends.” “Not for a long time—” “But you saw him after the partv with Rollo and me at the hotel—” "Oh—” “Oh, yes, you did. He told me himself.” Bill telling . . . telling Ruth. . . . “Well, what of it?” she asked defiantly, but the dark color surged over her face. What else had Bill told? Ruth was shrewd, it would need only a word, a careless, blundering word. .. . “For Pete’s sake, Joan, what’s between you and my boy, anyway? Heaven knows I’m not one to make trouble, but when it gets so he can’t be civil to me, mooning over his old affair with yon, and you pretending you didn’t see him when you did—” "He’s nothing to me!”
hI h ■ IwiLfWw I mR Wy Iml I w “4 w * ■' For Petes sake, Joan, what s between you and my boy anyway?” Ruth asked.
Again the gimlet eyes searched Joan’s face. She read the truth in her eyes. Whatever William Martin might have been to Joan, it was over. "Well, I wish you luck with the BarstuwS. Gosh, the class. How many cars have they got, two or three? Chauffeur, too. The old lady inviting you an parties, that’s wbat gets me, Johnnie. I always had to fight all the female relations!” She laughed reminiscently and there was a look of real admiration in her eye as it came back to rest on Joan. Joan laughed, too. You couldn’t really dislike anyone as honest as Ruth! “Unless I miss my guess you’ll be Mrs. Curtis Barstow, Junior,” Ruth went on confidentially. “But let me give you a tip—don’t let him know about Will’um. It was that way with Gillespie and me. Now I kept it from Gillespie about being married before. I let on that Callahan was my maiden name. None of his business. “Well, be never would have got on if Callahan hadn't come to the door selling vacuum cleaners. Can you beat it? Dorothy, that was the maid I had—you'd never think I had a maid would you? Well, I did, and a Jap cook and a gardener, too. “Well, as I was saying. Dorothy went to the door, and I was sitting at the piano trying to practice, running up the scale with my voice. I could near this fellow talking and talking and Dorothy saying -’-No. we i don’t want any,’ and me trying to

practice. So I got sore, and I went to the doer, and I said, or I started to say. ‘We don’t want and peddlers or agents.’ And it was Callahan—my ex. It sure gave me a stitch in my side—- “ Well, as I say, the door was open, with the breezes blowing in and Gillespie with his bald head and all. So he came to the door—he was like that, the old butt-in—-“l never had anything against Callahan. We were talking as you would, meeting your ex-husband you hadn’t seen in eighteen months, and Callahan takes it I’m working there—“Oh, well—when Gillespie butts in, Callahan gets sore, and before I could slam the door in his face or get Gillespie away they were at it . hot and heavy. Callahan spilled the beans. I had a fierce time with the old man, got suspicious, see? . He was never the same old soft- : soap after that You know—it got ■ on his nerves, thinking about Callahan and me. So you take my advice—”
! Finally, Joan broke away. Shut the sound of Ruth’s talking out of her ears. Ruth’s whole manner had Changed with Joan. She had been faintly patronizing before, a little shy too, as if ahe were conscious of some shadowy barrier between them, that would always keep them apart It was different now. “We understand each other,” she seemed to say. “We two—with our backs to the wall—” Rollo was still in San Francisco. Joan saw him often, riding in a big car with Ruth. Curtis met him too. at the Country Club, on the Golf Links, at lunch with other men. “Nice kid,” he told Joan. “What can he see in that terriby fuzzyhead in your shop?” Joan blanched. The hardness in Curtis’ voice. “I suppose people wonder what you see in me .. . out of a shop, too!” He smiled at her indulgently. “Blessed baby! Don’t you know she’s a gold-digger, of the superior class? But then you wouldn’t—you always think the best of people, , don’t you? Judge them all by your- , self, funny little girl!” She hung her head. “I wasn't making fun of you, Joan! I love you for it. Listen, if it will make you any happier I’ll , swallow my prejudices, and have . them to dinner some night. She’s . hinted at it often enough, and the [ Keyes boy is all right—” [ “Oh. no—l didn’t mean that—” , “Well we’ll see—” >! (To Be Continued Tomorrow)
