All codes in AAA except those relating to first processing of farm products were ordered transferred to NRA.

SI NOUSIS Fear that BiU McGee, the racketeer. would wreak vengeance on her and her family if she refused to go out with him, caused lovely Patricia Warren to accept his invitations. Bill is shot by a rival gangster while in Pat’s company. Pat rushes home in terror and her stepmother puts her out, saying the police are looking for Pat. Unable to find employment, Pat resorts to her card skill and plays professional bridge. Julian Haverholt, noted bridge expert, makes her his partner. While they are discussing business details at his home. Clark Tracy, the polo player and Pat’s secret love, calls. She had met him once but he does not recognize her. Haverholt introduces Pat as his niece. She is indignant, but he explains later that he was thinking of her reputation and that it would be advisable for her to assume that role as long as she is to stay at his home. Pat visits her old home and finds that Bill McGee has wrecked her stepmother's dressmaking shop because Pat fled from him the night of t he shooting. She returns to Haverholt who promises to protect her. Accustomed to poverty. Pat revels in the luxury of her surroundings. Reading an announcement of Clark's approaching marriage to Marthe March. Pat experiences pangs of jealousy. Following the settling of a bridge argument, Haverholt w ants to give Pat a gift to celebrate their coming to an agreement. She asks for a roadster like Marthe March’s. Pat meets Haverholt at the automobile salesroom and is surprised to see Clark with him. Clark tells Pat how fond Haverfiolt is of her and she is troubled. CH APTER TWENTY-TWO “You've chosen a car exactly like my fiancee’s except that hers is red. You must meet Marthe. Y ou 11 like her.” “I’m sure I will,” replied Patricia. wondering what his reaction would be if he knew that she had met Marthe and hated her heartily. She had a well defined notion that Marthe would not like her. “Julian has told me a lot about Miss March,” she added politely. “He taught Marthe all she knows about bridge,” said Clark. “She tells me that she is almost good •nough to be a ranking player. I wouldn’t know myself. Cards are something of a mystery to me. always were, though Marthe drags me into a game occasionally.” He smiled reminiscently. “Julian was once kind enough to say that after five years of close, assiduous practice i might, with luck, develop into a hopeless dub.” They both laughed. “Bridge isn’t important,” suggested Patricia helpfully. “That frmn Julian Haverholt’s niece!” exclaimed Clark with affected horror. “Don’t ever breathe it," whispered Patricia, adopting a conspiratorial air. 'Again they laughed, ecstatically. Patricia felt herself carried along on the man's amusement and interest. She forgot Marthe, forgot Haverholt, forgot everything except that Clark was watching her attentively and admiringly. How good looking he was, not handsome in the dramatic fashion that Haverholt was handsome, perhaps, but boyishly tan, slim hipped, broadshouldered, vital as sportsmen are vital. “Have you played much polo lately?” “Not much—a little. The season isn’t officially open yet. Do you like polo?” “I love it," replied Patricia, whose polo had been confined to brief shots pictured in the news reels She would have confessed an interest in anything which brought so eager and enthusiastic a light ,nto Clark’s eyes. “You must come to the Club

I when the season begins,” he remarked. delighting her by making future plans, putting their growing ' friendship on a firmer basis. He ’ added reflectively, “Julian hates all r out-door sports but perhaps with ■ your own car you can manage to I escape from the bridge table occa- • sionally.” r “I hope so,” said Patricia com- : posedly, “after I learn to drive it.” i “You don’t drive?” > “Not at all.” 1 “May I teach you?” I “That would be nice,” agreed • Patricia, trying to control the ab- • surd thumping of her heart. I “When would you like your first i lesson?” 1 “When would you?” • “Shall we say day after tomor--1 row, if you get the car?” Glancing /er her shoulder, Clark amended, “You’ll get the car. Here comes ' Julian! Look at him, would you!” Patricia looked. The two ex--1 changed a confidential smile. Julian Haverholt wore the expression of the cat who had finished the last of the cream. Certainly, no conquering hero had ever been more glowingly triumphant. “Well, Patricia,” he announced, coming up to them, “your car will be on the street in ten minutes. Does that please you?” “A great deal.” “I knew that you would have your own way, Julian,” interposed Clark. He added thoughtfully. “I hope the time never comes when I want something that you '..ant too.” Haverholt’s eyes rested upon Patricia. His glance was reflective, meditative. Somehow it frightened her. There was an interval of rather tense silence. For an instant Patricia had the fleeting, curious illusion that the two men, so strangely dissimilar, faced each other like antagonists in an invisible ring, like opposing warriors on some decimated battlefield. An absurd idea, but there it was. Then Haverholt said lightly, “That’s a rather unlikely contingency, Clark. My wants are few and simple." Patricia broke in hurriedly. “Mr. Tracy has promised to give me a driving lesson on Wednesday.” "See that she doesn't break her neck, Clark. She’s a reckless youngster at heart.” On Wednesday morning Patricia opened her eyes to the knowledge 1 of something pleasant. She remembered instantly. The day was perfect, bright blue, a spring day even in the heart of New York. In the garden outside the trees were putting out their first tentative buds, the air was sweet and cool. She ' sang as she dressed, was still singing as she went downstairs. She stopped when she reached the door of the eard room, knocked, slipped inside when Julian bade her enter. ' As usual he was seated at the card ■ table, a stuffy, dull occupation thought Patricia for such a day. “I suppose you’re just in the - mood for a session at bridge,” said Haverholt dryly. “Then, you’ve forgotten,” said ; Patricia reproachfully. She contin- ■ ued self consciously, “Don’t you • remember I was to have a driving t lesson today?” "Clark can’t come,” Haverholt I advised her baldly. i “Clark can't come,” repeated Pa- - tricifl as if the statement were too t incredible for belief. “Why not?” “He telephoned last night after e you’d gene to bed and asked me to convey his apologies. He left early 3 this morning with the Marches. They decided quite unexpectedly to i fly down to Aiken.” e “I see,” said Patricia in a still voice. She attempted to hide the extent 5 of her hurt and disappointment, s There was no reason for her to be i hurt. To Clark, if not to her, the t engagement had been ■ casual t thing, a pleasant kindness extended to the niece of a friend, so comII pletely unimportant that to Iteu!

He said quietly, ■ “Are you in love with Tracy?” “What a question to ask,” she ■ faltered. “You know he’s engaged ’ to Marthe March. “That doesn't answer my question. Are you in love with him. Patricia?” I * “Os course, I'm not.” She could even smile now. "It’s too ridiculous to discuss for a minute.” “Then we won’t discuss it. Heaven ;; knows I don’t consider Clark Tracy | a particularly diverting topic of conversation.” ! ' Just then he said, “Perhaps you ! , , will accept my services as a driving i teacher. I drive too, you may have , ’ noticed.” ; , “All right," she said. “Thank you, thank you very much,” said Haverholt elaborately ironical. “It's delightful of you tc accept me as second choice.” “You aren’t second choice at ail," J she insisted. “On thinking it ow?r," remarked I Haverholt, blandly, “I’ve decided I that such an expedition would bore [ me. I'll call up the Madison Com- | pany have them send around a ; regular instructor." And that was the end of that. a • • • The days went by, days different ■ from any that Patricia had ever « known before. She took her place in the world of cards at Julian Hav- | erholt’s side. Bridge, bridge, bridge I —they played by night, they played ! by day. Patricia saw no one ex- I cept professional card players, j She was pointed out at the Stuy- | vosant Club, at the Cavender Club, at the Kirkcaldie Club, as a coming I star. Haverholt’s friends and en- j emies grew to know her, they . grudgingly admired her skillful ~ play, they admired her youthful. I glowing beauty, the men willingly, I the women unwillingly. She was Julian Haverholt’s niece. She wae accepted. “But shan’t we ever do anything i except play bridge?” Patricia wailed after a session that had lasted for hours. “I’m tired, so tired,” she muttered. “I'm tired too,” snapped Haverholt, looking it. He cursed the jouncing of car, picked up the speaking tube and cussed Otto. Patricia saw the chauffeur’s back stiffen indignantly. She felt like screaming. They had played bridge all night. Dawn, cool and virginal, was breaking over Central Park. The city was hushed and beautiful She could not appreciate the quiet beauty, or even see it. Cards seem ed to march before her vision in a steady stream, second thoughts assaulted her tired brain—if only she > had done this, if only she had not 1 done that, if only they could have stopped at some decent hour. . . ) Turning on the weary, exhausted I girl, inert upon the cushions. Haverholt resumed his grievance in a I voice studiedly, insultingly patient • “It’s not my fault that it’s six > o’clock in the morning. There’s a ! quaint old custom to the effect that one gives one’s opponents a chance t to get their money back.” “They didn’t get any of it back.’’ - Patricia observed sullenly. > “That’s hardly your fault, my dear. During the last rubber, I was r convinced that 1 was playing o against the three of you.” y “We won didn’t we? How much i. did we win?” s “Plenty,” conceded Haverholt for getting his irritation for the moI ment. He added complacently. “1 thought old Pond would burst a t blood vessel. There’s a man 1 en • joy taking, the stupid, pretention? ? fool. He should stick to thn pack e ing business.

A wo-1 man was sea'ed in the auto. The auto was a new one. No one knew what kind of a license plate it carried. The auto drove west on Madison ' street when Policeman Miller appeared oa the scene.
