SYNOPSIS Stanley Paige, beautiful, young society girl, is left penniless when her lawyer speculates with her money and loses. Stanley, however, cares little for the money, feeling that she has everything in the love of fascinating Drew Armitage. But wh*n Drew breaks their engagement, saying it would be impossible to marry on his income, she , is heartbroken. Rather than accept aid from her wealthy friends. Stanley rents a cheap furnished room and disappears from her exclusive circle to try and make her own way. Her friends agree that a better way would have been to marry handsome Perry Deverest, but Stanley cannot forget Drew. One day, she meets John Harmon Northrup, struggling young author. A strong friendship ensues and they become very necessary to one another. John Harmon is in love with Stanley but refrains from telling her because of Drew. At the beach, he catches her in his arms as she is about to fall. Her nearness intoxicates him. He tells himself he must never let it happen again but, try as he might, he cannot forget the ecstasy of that moment. CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE He passed Stanley and reached
the beach first. She came out of the ocean, shaking the water from her eyes, pulling off her tight scarlet cap. "Let's build us a fire, John Harmon. I'm simply freezing cold!" They found driftwood and piled it up on the sand. The slow gray smoke hung heavily in the air, burst suddenly into blue flames, sprang into a leaping red blaze. Stanley investigated the lunch basket and found some sandwiches. They ate them hungrily, sweaters tied about their shoulders, bodies relaxed and tingling in the warmth of the fire. “I mustn’t look at her,” John Harmon thought desperately. "We must keep on talking," he thought. And there was nothing to say. “I’ve 1 known this for a long time, but 1 I've never admitted it. I never in- 1 tended to—l don’t intend to now.” 1 And he kept his eyes fixed on the ' ocean. "It’s been a day to remember,” 1 Stanley said softly, poking the fire ’
with a sunbleached twig. “It’s been lovely and gentle and sort of wistful. Haven’t you felt like that about it, John Harmon?” He nodded, still refusing her his eyes. “October is like that—beautiful and breathtaking and sort of poignant.” He hesitated a bit over the last word. He was still a little shy about words like that. It was still easier to write them than to speak them. “It’s like an enchanting interlude," he went on slowly, “giving lavishly, promising nothing. That's what makes it so unbearably lovely, Stanley, the sense of elusiveness one feels about a day like this, the sense of flight, sustained for a moment, then gone forever.” His voice stopped abruptly on a rough, tight note. It was not the day he
was describing, but this other thing —this tremulous, fragile relationship between himself and this slim girl beside him ... an enchanting interlude promising nothing, the sense of flight—sustained for a moment, then gone forever. Stanley was not looking at him. Her eyes were on the fire. She answered him softly, slowly. “That’s all life is—don’t you think?—beautiful moments held for a space, then gone forever.” A searing little paid flicked John Harmon’s heart. He -new that note in Stanley's -.oice, he’d heard it often enough, heaven knows! He knew what he would find in her eyes, if he had the courage to look, knew the twisted, gallant little smile that would be lying on her lips. She hadn't forgotten. She might never

forget. He closed his eyes swiftly, felt again the soft, warm pressure of her body against his, saw again the dripping sweetness of her mouth, the drenched softness of her eyes. . . . Knew that it must never happen again, that he must forget that it had ever happened at all. “I’m cold.” Stanley sprang up suddenly. The fire had burned itself into a mound of crumbling coals, deep pink and molten gold; its edges already curling softly into a frail, white ash. “Time to be going home, John Harmon," she told him, giving him her hands, pulling him to his feet, “summer’s over.” For a shattering, nerve-tightened second, he felt that surely his arms i must go around her, that his mouth i must find hers and cling there, that nothing mattered except his need ; of her—then, he knew it wasn’t so, that always, now and forever, her I need of him was the important thing, the only thing that would 1 ever maHav
ever matter. He dropped her hands, turned and walked with her up the beach. On the ride back into town John Harmon was very gay. He found a lot to talk about. He talked lightly and of inconsequential things, he talked against time and a moment he didn’t want to remember and a quiver in Stanley’s voice that he , couldn’t forget. And Stanley listened, and laughed now and then, and said very little. She had found . something rather precious in the 5 country that day, she didn't want to lose it — and words dispel so j many things. I I♦ • • 5 * The third week in October Marcia e Wingate came back to town. Nigel
Stern bought a new and rare portfolio of etchings—and Stanley lost her job. Marcia slid back into her own particul- - groove in town with the sleek agility of a cat returning to its own back yard. Connections temporarily lost during the summer were picked up again, certain changes were noted and accepted; a divorce here, a marriage there, a , new name added to her list, an old one dropped, an intrigue smiled i upon, a scandal covered up But ! all in all it was much the same i sort of thing, one season after an- ’ other — much light conversation, : lovely clothes, carefully concealed ' emotions and cleverly expressed t opinions. ■ It was Marcia's world. She moved r in it. gracefully and with a great

Mr. and Mrs. Ferd Smith of Au ( s-d Miss Ruth Bahner of • Bluffton spent the week-en-d with
deal of pleasant assurance. She was rarely bored. Marcia, it will be remembered, was not clever. She was not troubled with any confusing ideas about life. She was troubled. I in fact, by very few ideas of any kind, any she had were always wellordered and easily pigeon-holed. She had not thought of Stanley in weeks, when one day she walked into her on Madison Avenue. She was crossing the pavement to her car when there, miraculously, was Stanley. , There was nothing miraculous about it at all, of course. Stanley passed here every night on her way ; home. They shook hands. Marcia had considered whether to kiss her or not and the moment had passed. ‘Tve never really forgiven you, I you know, for running away.” “I’ve never forgotten how good 1 both you and Ned were.” “You're looking well, Stanley, a bit thin perhaps ” mi'-Tnllxv fit i f War.
“You’re awfully fit yourself, Marcia. Have a nice summer?” “Oh. the usual thing — rather ' more golf than usual It’s sort of i nice to be back in town You'll let I us see something of you this win- I ter, won't ywi, Stanley?” “That wiuld be nice—we could have tea .-imetinie.” “You must come to dinner—just Ned and you and I and, perhaps, Perry.” Stanley’s color deepened sudden- ; ly “That sounds delightful, Mar- | cia.” “You’ll come, then? I’ll telephone : you. Well, it’s been splendid seeing I you. Ned will be glad to know you’re looking so well. Good-bye.” “Good-bye. Marcia.” ! Stanley watched the long beige I car nose its way arrogantly
through the traffic—of course. Marcia wouldn’t call her up—she would mean to. perhaps, but -.he would 1 forget about it and eventually, 1 , when she thought about it, she , would remember she didn't have her address. Stanley turned and hurried on. a i little smile on her lips, her eyes a ( bit grim. She had belonged and i now she didn’t. Marcia wasn't » j snob but she had an instinct about j things like that. Os course, if Stant ley had chosen to marry Perry e Deverest instead of fantastically . running off to live in an impossible i, way with impossible people the j smile tightened oa Stanley’s lips, d (To So Continued) Copyright, 1932, »y Allens CorliM 11 Distributed S» King Features Syndicate, Ine
