Money” 9a iy CHARLES GRANT _

SYNOPSIS Lovely, young Cathleen McCarthy tries to discourage the attentions of Seward Ingram, her employer’s son because of social barriers, but he insists on seeing her. Seward presents Cathleen with an expensive bracelet. She , plans to return it, but her shiftless brother. Joe, steals the bracelet and pawns it for S3OO. For the first time in his career, Jasper Ingram's I financial throne is threatened. Just as he is trying to raise several million dollars, his wife, ignorant, of the crisis, asks iot half a million to purchase the Russian royal rubies. Ingram refuses and his wife secretly plans a loan. To add to the financier's difficul-.es, Arline Martin, an actress, plans to sue Ingram on a false charge for not financing her play. Homer Al spaugh. Ingram's confidential secretary, speculates with his employer’s money in the hope of securing funds to meet his faithless wife’s extravagance. Marian Alspaugh is having an affair with the Marques d'Alhues. On a picnic with Seward. Cathleen, unable to tell him the truth about the bracelet, says she must return it, inferring that she still has it. CHAPTER XXI •'lt would be great to be a gypsy, j going on and on.” said Cathleen. ’ "In a little while you eould be I tramping those hills, looking back I at where we are now. Father says Ireland is so much more beautiful than the United States, there’s no I comparison at all. But this place : fairly makes your heart ache with , beauty. I don’t see how anything could be lovelier, and if it were, I j couldn't bear it!” "How much of this country has j your father seen?” asked Seward. “New York City and a piece of the south-west end of Long Island 1” “This cake fs a poem—” Seward took a second slice. "I baked it,” she said with simple pride. “Golly, what a wife you’d make!” "For a poor man,” she agreed, laughing. “Why should poor men have all the luck?” "To make up for being poor, of ■ course.” "If a man were young and healthy and had you for a wife. I wouldn’t cal! him poor.” said Seward. "Money is queer,” she mused. “So all-important, so unimportant. If someone were sick and the doctors couid do nothing, or if you loved someone and he didn’t love you, you wouldn’t give a snap of your fingers for peeks of money. But those are i the great events of life—dying and [■ falling in love, and between them are stretches when money seems to mean just everything. Why, look at the world today! So much suffering because something has gone ' wrong with money, and there’s no- ' body has the wit to set it right. Men i starving because there’s too much food— Were you ever hungry. Mr. Seward?” “Not any hungrier than I was about half an hour ago. The way I’ve wolfed your lunch. What about calling me Seward, by the way?” he demanded. “I will, if you say so. It’s awkward when there are two Mr. Ingrams—to have the same name mean i such different persons! And Mr. Seward does sound a little silly.” “I am different from my father in lots of ways—l mean, I think sons are generally more like their mothers. Os course, I know he’s a big man and I'm nobody except his son. . . But I’d rather be myself than he. I’m glad to be starting right now. We'll see how things come cut. you and I. The world may be a mess, but it’s a darned interesting period all the same." “Isn’t it!” Cathleen exclaimed. “I’ve ftlt that, too. when my father and mother were groaning and I wishing for the good old times I back.” “Some day , opie may be calling i these the good old times.” laughed Seward. “We'd better enjoy ourI- selves, though, while we can. It’s I peaceful enough here, isn't it?” After a. while they rose and made ready for'thelr walk. They could see a white road I climbing the ridge opposite them. I It curved and disappeared, beckon- | ing. They reached it by a short cut I across the pasture-land. It was | good to swing along between hedgerows. to reach a bridge across a wide brook and lean on the rail to watch its waters purling over the stones, spreading into a pool below, i There were bitter-sweet berries hanging on a stone wall. And Seward picked them for Cathleen. They came to a de t r‘cd j farm-house and explored it. There was no door and the stairs were rotten, but it. was a spooky delight o invade the ruined rooms where simple people had once lived. A I little farther on. they found an old

family graveyard and paused to read the quaint namn on the leaning stones —Ebenezer and Arnzi. I The living boy and girl stood in l the hot still sunlight and spoiled out the dates and the almost illegi- i ble rhymes cut in the crumbling I marble. Born 1787—died 1866- i that was Ebenezer, who had out- i lived three wives. Several of the : graves were those of children. “De- 1 borah Fancher, aged 2 nws. and 6 ; days," Cathleen read aloud. "Poor little baby! She’d have been an old I woman now. if she hadn’t died." Cathleen had never before seen such a country burying place, touching, forlorn, peaceful. “And Arnzi wants us to remember that some day we too will lie, ’Cold in the narrow grave as I—-

' and watch our step accordingly. ' Not yet awhile, Amzi! Shall we be , on our way?” asked Seward. A mile farther on, a railway track crossed the road, and they 1 turned along it for the childish fun i ■ of walking on the rails. Neither ! eould manage it, until Seward sug- ; ' gested that they take hands. After s that it was easy and there were few : ‘ mis-steps. It was good to hold hands like that, with no sentimental 1 • implication. Cathleen thought. 1 Feeling her hand firm and friend- ; ■ ly in his, Seward knew a rare contentment, and would have liked to \ go on indefinitely walking hand in i hand with her. He was aware, subconsciously, of the comfort of this < muturl steadying of two walking : i as one along parallel paths so plain i | and shining to the same end; sym- i I bolic, it seemed to him. l ' A chill in the air. a gradual I change in the light, made him at i last step reluctantly to the ties. His i wristwatch showed four o’clock. i “Have to be turning back now, ! I’m afraid. It’s a long walk to ’ where we left the car, and quite a ’ drive home from there.” Cathleen drew a long regretful i breath. “Our beautiful day is near- i ly over! But we have the going < back still.” t “You like it then? So do I, a lot. Let’s do it again soon, shall we? I < know very few girls, if any, that i would care to put in a with me ) just like this,” he said. t "It's been like heaven, to me. i What more could anybody want, I 1 wonder?” she said. < “They don’t think they’re having a good time unless money’s being < spent on them!” Seward declared < with a rich youth’s cynicism. “They t want to be dancing, or going some- I where in a crowd. This is free, so t it’s no good.” “I don’t know what one eould buy

with money that would be any better to see beautiful country, in pleasant company—" She smiled frankly into his eyes. "The best things in life have got nothing to do with money, and that’s the truth!" said Seward, suddenly making this stupendous discovery. He had heard the axiom before, but it had meant nothing to him. "Out-doors, fine weather, youth, health, and friendship. And I suppose, love. AU those things have nothing to do with money, and they're the things that count most in the end.” . . “And religion!" Cathleen adaed. a little shocked at his omitting that. “I'm afraid I'm not awfully strong on religion," he said awkwardly “Well, here's our road.

Just ahead of them the track crossed a dirt road, and they stepped off the rails and turned up it. They now followed a country road, running between bright banks and flanked by meadows and woodlands, for a mile or so. Then Seward stopped and wrinkled his straight nose in an engaging expression of uncertainty. “I don’t remember that farmhouse ahead of us, do you? It seems to me we ought to have passed that graveyard before now!” "We’d have noticed that red barn I'm sure.” said Cathleen. But how could we possibly miss the road?” “We were trying so hard to keep on the rails—that must have been it! This may be a road we didn’t notice. On the other hand, maybe we re right, and simply didn’t notice this place when we passed it." He hesitated, frowning. “I wonder ff we better go back or keep on? Even if this is a different road, it seems bound to hit the highway sooner or later. Chances are it would be shorter to keep on it now we've come so far!” “We could ask at the farmhouse ” suggested Cathleen. but there was no one home at the farmhouse except a deaf old woman from whom they couid learn nothing. Seward decided that their best course was to push on “Much mote interesting to go back a different way. I m glad wc made the mis tase! Look at that hillside with the sun lighting up ali those birches. Looks like a fire, doesn't it?” he said. They walked on, braced bv the increasing coolness as the sun cropped. They bad lost it now from the gray rutted tixck ahead of them; though it still gilded the distant flank of the hill. (To Be Continued) >’ '• S’K-r re>-. .. s, n( | lr , le lne
