SYNOPSIS After three years in Europe, lovely Stanley Paige, young society girl, returns to New York. She I phones Perry Deverest. who had been madly in love with her before she was rushed abroad following her father’s death. Stanley, howi ever, was not so sure of her heart at the time. Perry realizes, after seeing Stanley again, that he is still in love with her but steels himself against committing himself until his love is reciprocated. Stanley, on her ow n as long as she could remember, was never sure of what she wanted in life. Perry takes her to Nigel Stern’s studio party where she meets handsome Drew Armitage. “who has away with women.” They fall in love on sight. The following day. they go driving in the country. Drew takes Stanley in his arms saying. “You're beautiful and you're mine!” CHAPTER SIX Three hours later when Drew left Stanley he drove straight to his garage, left his car and walked six blocks east to Dennis St. John’s apartment. He would much rather have gone to his own. He felt in no mood for Dennis—or for any other girl for that matter. He was completely in love with Stanley and now that he had left her he did not want to break the emotional wavelengths that he felt were somehow still binding them together. To see Dennis, to talk to her, would do | this. But he had promised her that he would drop in at the apartment, and with Drew, oddly enough, a promise was a promise. Delightfully unscrupulous about many things, he seldom if ever broke his word to a woman—when it merely involved the keeping of an appointment. kidiculously punctilious about little things, he could be utterly disingenuous about bigger, more important issues. He had never hesitated to break a woman's heart when it no longer interested him. but it would never have occurred to him to break an appointment, even when it was distasteful to keep it. So he rode up in a smoothly gliding elevator and rang the bell of Dennis' smart studio-apartment at exactly six-fifteen. “Hello—all alone?” He tossed his gloves and hat onto a table, crossed the long room and bending over her. kissed her lightly on the mouth. She sank deeper into dull velvet pillows, put her cigarette back between her lips. "I don't believe 1 like you to kiss me any more, Drew,” she decided in her cool, i slurring voice. “It’s too sort of over and done with—l’ve never found it exactly satisfactory to kiss a peri son lightly after one has experimented with more ardent caresses." Drew shrugged, smiled a little. “Just as you say, Dennis—we aim to please." He walked over to a fable, picked up a bottle of Scotch and poured some liquor into a glass. “Mind if 1 have a drink? It’s my first today." “Help yourself. There were cocktails but the crowd finished them.” She flicked her eyes at a litter of glasses scattered about on the high mantel and the piano. Drew mixed another. drink for her, brought them over to where she still slouched against huge amber pillows. “Well—here’s looking at you!” They looked into each other’s I eyes, drank slowly. He sat down beside her on the divan. “You're an amazingly handsome thing." Dennis told him. staring at him thoughtfully “Quite the most alluring male I have ever gazed upon. Where did you come from—who are you, anyway, Drew?”

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 31, IWL

J "UnUH otherwise prescribed, such acres shall not be used except for planting additional permanent > pasture; for soil improvement and erosion-prevention crops not to be harvested; for resting or fallowing • the land: for weed eradication, or for planting of farm wood lots." The term, “additional permanent pasture." means pasture in addition to the average cumber of acres devoted to pasture in 1932 33. This additional pasture according to the administrative ruling covering this point, can be planted to

He lifted his eyebrows at her, screwed his eyes into an amused grin. “What do you want — the story of a sad young life? You embarrass me, my dear!” “Not you,” retorted Dennis cool- ' ly. “I don’t believe you could be embarrassed, Drew—you’re much too self-possessed. But seriously, just who are you?” “I’m one Drew Armitage,” he 1 drawled quietly, “thirty-two years , old, white and unmarried. I graduated from Amherst in the class of twenty-two—and since then—" “Since then I know all about it. You’re a broker—attractive, therefore successful. What I don't know is before then — before Amherst tt “Why this sudden interest in me, beloved?" Drew smiled at ’aer but his eyes were curious. “I’ve been thinking about you—since last night. I’ve been wondering ” “Don’t, my dear, it will never get you anwhere." “You mean you don’t intend to tell me?” “About my past? Certainly I’ll tell you. Why shouldn’t I?—it’s no particular secret. My father was an actor—a bit of a rotter, I imagine, but a handsome devil. My mother was a dancer—in a rash moment they married and the result was me.” Drew sobered a bit. "My father was killed shortly after I arrived on the scene and the next ten years were pretty bad. Eventually Claire, my mother, came back to New York, married again and we had things easy for a while. I got a college education out of it and a lot of very expensive ideas—then the old guy dropped dead one day, leaving everything in a devil of a mess. That was right after I graduated. Claire had a small life insurance—but I was out in the cold cruel world with nothing but my handsome face. I. had some very good friends, though—they offered me several different positions —1 took a job with Johnny Crampton’s firm in Chicago, then last fe.ll he brought me on here—" Drew paused, a slight smile playing sbotit his mouth. “And that, my dear, is the story of my sad, young life.” “I might add, he went on, lighting a cigarette, “that Claire has married again —a filthy rich old piker who can’t see me at al!—and all the consolation I get from the lovely but slightly dilapidated Claire is ‘go thou, and do likewise'!” “And you are going to?” Dennis reached out and took the cigarette from between his lips and placed it between her own. Drew flipped open his cigarette case. “I suppose so—eventually. It’s the obvious thing, isn’t it?” “I expect it is for a man like you.” “Don’t think much of me, do you, Dennis?” He smiled straight into her eyes, defying her to admit it. She laughed huskily. “I think you’re wonderful. Drew, I think you’re grand! But—haven’t you any moral scruples at all?” “Moral scruples?” Drew wrinkled his brow in puzzled thought. "I don’t believe so, Dennis, what are they? They sound so terribly unattractive. Anyhow I’m quite sure I haven’t any.” “But you have about everything else — everything that* woman wants in a man—well. I don't suppose you could have everything ” Dennis considered him reflectively. “Picked her out yet. Drew?” “What? Who? Oh, you mean the girl — why, no—l don’t believe 1 have—” He returned her glance coolly, his eyes telling her nothing. If Dennis thought she was going to draw Stanley into the discusl sioii, she was mistaken. Drew had no intention of speaking of her then or ever if he could prevent it.

Perhaps he thought, a bit surprised, he did have moral scruples after all! The thought was a bit perplexing. He dismissed it as requireing too much effort to follow up. “I see — well. I don’t suppose you’re in any hurry about it—- “ Can’t say that I am—l find life a very pleasant thing just as it is." “Yes, I expect you do. I wish I knew what it was about you. Drew, that makes women love you*sv." “I think," replied Drew gravely, “that it must be because I love them so—” He grinned audaciously, drew himself to his feet. "Well, I’ve got to be running along darling.” "Must you?” Drew looked down at her speculatively. Two months ago he would have stayed — nothing could have induced him to leave her. He had been rather badly in love with Dennis two months ago. Now he felt nothing more for her than a real admiration for her really astonishing, rather tawny beauty. “Yes, my dear, I must.” “Very well." She accepted his decision unprotestingly. “Run in again —won’t you?” “I’ll do that, Dennis." He picked up his hat, slid his gloves through his fingers. “You know, Dennis—you're a lot like me —you know when a thing is ended —and you accept it—gracefully." “Yes.” Dennis agreed with him, her eyes long and cool between golden lashes, “I’ve found it’s much the best way—what it saves in wear and tear on the nervous system—” She shrugged, tossed her cigarette into a copper bowl. “Thanks for dropping in. Drew—it’s always nice to see you ” He stared at her a moment, his eyes undecided. “I believe we agreed to waive the — farewell kiss?" “Yes—it’s out from now on.’’ “Well—good-bye.” Drew slung his hat on his dark head, pulled it a bit over one eye, "Good-bye." Dennis snuggled deeper into her amber pillows, smiled at him through half-closed lashes. H? went out, closing the door softly behind him. • • • One of the first people who called Stanley during the following week was Marcia Wingate. Marcia was two years older than Stanley and had been married, with a good deal of expense, publicity, and what-not, the winter Stanley had come out. Stanley had, m fact, been one of the twelve bridemaids. She had looked very young and quite lovely in prinnose taffeta, her arms full of tea roses and liles-of-the-valley. She had wondered how all brides always managed to look so like frightened madonnas and had not forgotten to smile once at Perry, who was looking very immaculate and important as best man. Now Marcia had been married three years, had accumulated two houses, three cars and half a dozen servants. To say nothing of one child. And she was inviting Stanley to dinner. “Very informal, darling,” she told her, over the telephone. “Just a few old friends and a few new ones. I'm asking Drew Armitage for you—that’s as it should be. isn’t it?” Stanley agreed that it was. It was nice, she thought, that people had such a pleasant way of taking things for granted. She, herself, couldn’t do it so easily. She had not yet come to accept Drew casually, and her feeling for him. She doubted if she ever would. She decider to wear a new, very slim and fr-gile dinner dress and hoped that Drew would send orchids. He did. (To Be Continued) Ux-yrjgbt 1V33. fc. Allene Corti.. Distributed b 7 king Fe»tu-e.
