SYNOPSIS Unable to find employment, young and beautiful Patricia Warren capitalizes her card skill, at fifty cents an hour, hy making a fourth at bridge parties given by the wealthy Mrs. Eileen Syrott. Julian Haverholt, noted bridge expert, is fascinated by Patricia and impressed by her game. He offers to make her his secretary and partner, suggesting that she live at his home. Aware of Haverholt's unsavory reputation, Patricia hesitates to accept the position. Haverholt escorts Patricia to the drab home she shares with her nagging stepmother and stepsisters. In the hallway, he suddenly embraces Pat. Indignant, she declines his business offer and rushes indoors. Mrs. Marren, her stepmother. thinking of her own comfort. is furious at Pat's refusal. Next morning. Mrs. Warren goes off to her dress-making, leaving Pat to take care of the children. C HAPTER FOUR Usually the two children were angels. This morning Patricia believed that Ellen with her wriggling and Teresa with her questions would drive her mad. Evidently it wa« going to be a frightful day. The heat had failed again, a usual calamity. The radiators were frigid and Teresa, sent to complain to the janitor, came back to report that he was not to be found. Patricia thought that in all New York there could be no room more ugly or more comfortless than this one. The sewing machine beneath the window, the draped dressmaker's form, the ravellings of thread on the worn rug, all mutely testified to its utilitarian purpose. In one corner was a Christmas tree, there were wreaths of holly over doors, but the holiday trappings could not make the room gay or cheerful. They only accentuated its essential dreariness. Patricia was swept by a wave of bitterness and envy. New Year's Eve was four days distant. Other girls no prettier than herself would be dressing for splendid balls, would be trailing into theatres, would be dancing in smart night clubs. All New York was prepared for a riotous celebration. A celebration in which Patricia would have no part. In that moment of weakness and despair she remembered Julian Haverholt. In that moment she regretted bitterly that she had sent him away. Was her stepmother right? Were dignity and honor possessions of value only to the rich? After breakfast Patricia felt calmer, saner. She still had two weeks of grace. A great many things might happen in that time. Receiving from Teresa a solemn promise to take care of the little i sister, Patricia went out to hunt a job. A hopeless search. She knew that by noon. But she con--1 tinued doggedly until three o’clock. Returning home late in the afternoon, weary and discouraged, she | found her stepmother at the sewing machine and beside her—Eileen Sycott. The conversation lapsed abruptly with the opening door. Patricia sank into a chair. Obvii ously the two women had been disj cussing her. “Did you get a job?” demanded Lillian Warren baldly. “No,” said Patricia. Eileen Sycott adjusted a mink coat about her ample person and rose. She was a figure of royal condescension in the humble room. Whenever she called, and she called often, she invariably brought along a garment in need of repair. That served her as a sufficient excuse to

linger for hours of gossip with Lillian Warren, who kept a highly interesting record of the comings and goings of the neighborhood. Naturally Eileen Sycott never permitted the other woman to forget the gulf between them. She reached now for her pocketbook and gloves. “I just dropped by to suggest that you come in on Friday,” she ■ announced to Patricia in her light, patronizing tones. “But I hear you’ve grown so high and mighty that my paltry little fifty cents an hour probably wouldn’t interest you.” Patricia refused to rise to this. Somewhat taken aback, the other added, “I wanted you to make up a fourth at bridge.” Still Patricia said nothing. Mrs. Sycott continued with an injured air, “Most girls would jump at the chance to meet Clark Tracy. I met him the other night at the Charity Ball and he was glad to accept my invitation.” The fact that Clark Tracy, the famous polo player, was to be Eileen Sycott’s guest for the evening appeared to be a matter of complete indifference to Patricia. She seemed singularly unimpressed by this social triumph. Eileen Sycott wanted to shake her. But she needed Patricia’s help in the coming battle. She said sharply, “Well, will you come or won’t you?” “Y’es, I’ll come,” said the girl. “We’re dining at seven. I’ll expect you promptly at eight-thirty. I wouldn't like to keep Clark Tracy waiting.” Patricia had not expected to be asked to dine. Still the other’s rude omission stung. How she longed to decline the invitation that was, in reality, a command. She could not afford such gestures. With bitter eyes she watched Mrs. Sycott take her departure. “Why you always quarrel with your bread and butter is beyond me,” snapped her stepmother, once the door was closed. “Mrs. Sycott was horrible,” said Patricia, angrily flinging off her hat. “Even if she has her little ways you might be more civil. Eileen Sycott introduces you to rich people.” “Only because she must if I’m to play bridge at the same table with them. I can assure you she doesn’t do it from the goodness of her heart.” “She's given you lots of chances,” insisted the exasperated stepmother. “If you had the brains you were born with you might get some rich man interested in you.” “At least I was spared that until last night,” said Patricia. She regretted the remark almost instantly. But for once her stepmother seemed willing to let an old quarrel lie. She bit off a piece of thread and remarked casually, “Bill McGee called up while you were out.” Patricia looked dismayed. “I hope you told him I wouldn’t see him,” she said quickly. Lillian Warren blazed to one of her sudden rages. She swung on the girl. “I told him no such thing. And you will see him, young lady, so long as you’re living here. I’m not going to get in trouble with Bill McGee. I don’t know when I might need his influence.” “His influence,” echoed Patricia scornfully. “His influence is nothing but a gang of hoodlums who shake down little shopkeepers.” "He stands in with the police and don’t you forget it!” “I don’t care who he stands in with. I hate him.” The doorbell rang sharply, imperatively Patricia grew a little

pale. Certainly Lillian Warren was pale. “It's Bill,” she whispered. As Patricia rose, she added. “Mind now—you treat him decently.” Patricia opened the door. Bill McGee, a small time politician, a small time thug, a neighborhood boy on the make, had adopted all the ways of the big time gangster. He wore a flashily cut gray suit, an expensive camel's hair overcoat, a gardenia in his buttonhole. His hard black eyes softened as they rested on Patricia. "Glad to see me, baby ?” he asked. “No,” said the girl shortly. “I told you not to come here any more.” The man ignored that. He said softly, “I hear you had a run in last night with Julian Haverholt, the bridge shark. Do you want 1 should punch him in the jaw?” ‘1 want you to let me alone.” “You can’t make me sore,” said I Bill, grinning. "I come by to ask you to go to a political dance with me on New Y'ear’s Eve. It’s going to be a swell affair. How about it?” “I won’t go.” “Suze, she'll go,” broke in Lillian Warren, her anxious, nervous eyes i fastened on Bill McGee's slowly ' darkening face. “She’ll be glad to , 99 go. “I will not go!” cried Patricia, tense with indignation. Bill McGee smiled. It was not a pleasant smile. He advanced his polished black head so that his eyes and Patricia’s eyes were no more than two inches apart. His stocky I figure almost blocked the doorway “You’ll go, kid, and like it,” he predicted grimly and, with that, I was gone. Patricia dismissed him from her mind. If Lillian Warren were frightened by the threatening attitudes of a neighborhood bad man. the girl was not. During the next two days she concentrated on the dreary business of hunting work. The’dfiys were long, tiring, utterly fruitless. Friday came. Until six o’clock Patricia tramped from one employment agency to another. She reached home, literally sick with weariness. But after dinner she bathed, gave herself a manicure and washed her hair, hanging anxiously over the radiator until the last curling strand was dry. At eight o’clock she dressed in her careful best. She took a final glimpse at the bathroom mirror. Even to herself she looked unwontedly well. The green dress, old as it was, made her taller, slimmer, jtfst as it emphasized the pallor of her skin and the red-gold glints in her hair. How glad she was that there had been time for a shampoo! Involuntarily Patricia smiled. “Gee, you’re pretty, Pat,” breathed Teresa. Patricia dropped a kiss on her small adorer’s face and ran for the door. She was pervaded by a feeling of youthful high spirits and excitement. Although she had concealed it, secretly she exulted at the thought of meeting Clark Tracy. She had heard so much about the dashing young sportsman, had read so much about him. Once she had torn his picture from a rotogravure section and had carried it in her pocketbook until the paper wore through. For weeks she had dreamed the restless dreams of youth as she studied the photograph that even now was clear to her in every detail—a young man standing beside an alert pony, a young man whose throat was bare and whose eyes squinted a little against the sun.
