“Sweepstakes on Love” l, S' IW2I- 1 by May Christie ~ ** * ... • i — — 1— — . 1« r

SYNOPSIS Diana Darlington, of a socially Jiromincnt, though impoverished, amily, loves the eligible young bachelor, Roger Dexter, but what chance had she when the fabulously wealthy Regina Hyde had set her cap for him? Regina always got everything she wanted. Although Roger's family enjoyed a social prestige far above Regina's, she made up for it by the lavishness of her parties and her debut was to be the last word in extravagance. Diana goes to Regina's week-end party just because Roger will be there. At the United Hunts races, Diana is thrilled when Roger whispers she must save him five dances that evening if their horse wins—but their choice lose,. That night at Regina’s dinner-dance. Roger apparently has eyes for no one but his hostess. Later, however, he slips away with Diana into the garden. In the seclusion of the summer house. Roger kisses Diana and starts to say "You're the only—” when tipsy Clarence Thyne, a guest, interrupts and tells Roger that Regina wants him. The following Monday morning. Genevieve, Diana's mother, is worried over finances. Her one hope is Diana. She must make a quick and suitable marriage. CHAPTER V Roger Dexter was the best bet of the season. Even if he had not been charming in manners and appear* ance, she would have urged him on her daughter. The daily income from those oilwells! The drooping corners of her mouth lifted themselves as she thought how the widow’s purse would be replenished! Not that she wanted anything for herself, except to have the mortgage taken from this house that had been in the Darlington family for generations. Next to Diana, the house was a fetish with Genevieve, who had been born a Darlington before ever she had married her distant and much better-off cousin in the New York branch of the family. He had died of flu five years ago, and when the will had been read, beyond the house there was very little left for her and Diana. It w a comfortable little house, beautifully furnished in the Queen Anne period. There was a narrow entrance-hall, and elegant small dining-room, and behind that, the kitchen quarters on the ground floor. A long drawing-room above, full nf spindly chairs and couches and little mahogany tables that bloomed with the flowers Geneweve loved to have about her and ran into debt over. At right angles to the drawingroom, but smaller, was a musicroom with a great Flemish tapestry completely covering one wall. It had been in the Darlington family for four hundred years and was a cherished heirloom. She had been forced to sell the Stradivarius throe years ago to a collector of violins. The old spinet and harp were still there, but would fetch very little. When she entertained, she usually hired the grand piano that was nowmissing. Her former one had long since been sold. Truth to tell. Genevieve lived mostly on commissions she obtained from certain dressmaking-houses, by sending them customers, or bringing rich friends in casually, and every now and then she would receive a substantial check from interior decorators in whose path she had put business cleverly. Indeed, she had various sources of income that she trusted remained a secret from her friends. In that she erred. Up and down Park Avenue it was common knowledge that the handsome widow eked out her livelihood by the commission racket. She thought now: “If only Diana would make a good marriage!” At that moment, the young woman herself walked into her mother’s bedroom which adjoined her own smaller one on the third floor. Bella slept in the attic. “Had a good time over the weekend. darling?" Genevieve inquired brightly, not pausing in slapping the cold cream into her face. “Divine.” said Diana casually. She added, quickly: “I’ve been for a walk in the park. It’s an adorable morning.” “Nothing more interesting than t'nqt to tell me?” chided Genevieve archly;, watching her child’s face in the mirror. , How sickeningly secretive the younger generation were, despite >!! their freedom of speech and doings! “If you mean Roger Dexter, he

was there. He brought me home, ’ said Diana tonelessly. “Nothing special happen, darling? You asked him in, of course, and gave him a highball?” “No. I was tired. There were other people in the car. I didn't feel like having them in.” "So? Wasn’t that rather foolish? I mean, week-ends like that aren’t too plentiful.” “Meaning I may not have the opportunity again?” burst out Diana unexpectedly, she who usually was so gentle. "Genevieve, I’m sick of it all. This keeping up a front when we've nothing to back it with is awful. Please, please let me get a job!” “Have you gone mad?” Gene-

vieve swung ’round on her stool, heri plucked eyebrows raised to their highest extent “Don’t you realize | your name happens to be Darlington? That all the girls in the family have always made their debut? That I shan’t permit you to be an exception?” Diana gave a smothered groan. She flung her hat and coat on a couch, and stared at her mother. “We deceive nobody by putting on a show. It won’t get us anywhere.” “Nonsense! Everyone in New York puts on a show. Sit down, Diana. and stop being dramatic. First of all, tell me about Roger Dexter. You’re not lacking in brains. Didn’t you find out anything?” “About what?” “His feelings for you, child,” said Genevieve with exaggerated patience. "The last time he was here, he looked at you in away that said plenty—” “Without committing himself,” Diana interrupted, with a wry smile. “Give the boy time. He’s a great catch. I know he’s interested, darling.” “Oh. mother, it’s horrid to talk like that! It’s so—so scheming!” Genevieve shrugged her shoulders, wiping the cold cream from her face. She poured some astringent stuff on a little pad of cotton and dabbed it over her cheeks before she spoke. “I’m doing my very best for you according to nty lights and my extremely narrow income, darling. Be assured if I talk rather plainly, it’s for your good.” Diana melted immediately. She was fond of Genevieve, although often irked by her. Tears sprang to her eyes. “I know you do. I’m sorry, mother. I’m a bit on edge. It was rather hectic yesterday at the Hyde party. You understand.” Her mother eyed her sharply. Presumably that meant too many drinks? But the girl’s eyes were clear with a shimmer of tears in them. Genevieve, the usually undemonstrative, got un and kissed her. "There, datling. We’ll not talk about your week-end. I take it it was not too satisfactory. Let’s talk about your coming-out party.” “Mv»t I have one. mother?” “Certainly. That’s settled.” She dropped down on the couch, and started manicuring her nails as though it helped thought. “I’ve been wondering if a tea would be the best thing after all. Yon see, a dinner or supper is so expensive, with the food and all, but a tea is different.” “Nobody drinks tea. They want eocktails. Gallons and gaHorts of

' ’em!” said Diana in a flat voice. "But we can manage that. We ■ can have champagne cocktails. Any , kind of cocktails. Even a bar, if you want to,” Genevieve’s voice rose • triumphantly. Here was her trump I card. “I can arrange it." Was her mother dreaming? At ’ the price of liquor—good liquor—t least of all, champagne—it would cost a young fortune to entertain ■ her many friends, even for a matter i of two or three hours! ! "What’s on your mind, Genet vieve? What's the big scheme?” i “The Fiegenschultzs. Someone ! brought her to the club last night, i and she made it plain to me that her husband would gladly supply all we • need in the way of drinks, if—”

“If we invite them!” groaned Diana. Alfred Fiegenschultz was a liquor merchant, impossible himself, with an equally impossible wife and daughter who were fired withsocial ambition. Over a bridge of silence. Genevieve and Diana stared at one another. “It’s the only possible solution, darling. We’ll have to invite the Fiegenschultzs,” said Genevieve tersely. • • • Diana wore a white chiffon velvet gown, long-sleeved and cut on princess lines, for her coming-out party. As Bella, devoted raaid-of-all-work, pinned a great spray of white gardenias on her shoulder, she kept up a running fire of delighted exclamations. “Not one signorina of the season to be so bew-tee-ful as you, Mees Diana! Ah, quanto bclla!” She clasped her hands ecstatically, stepped back to survey her. "BellisThe fine velvet of the gown clung to every lovely line of Diana's slim figure. Her long, beautifully rounded throat rose from a fichu of white folds and carried her small head proudly. From her wide forehead with its “widow’s peak,” the brown hair was swept back to break out in a riot of soft curls at the neck-line and over her ears. The mirror should have given her reassurance, with Bella, but, truth to tell, Diana was nervous. After all their plans, if anything should go amiss? They had been beset by so many difficulties. The suite of rooms on the thirtieth floor of the Parkview Hotel was not large, but it had been all that Genevieve could wangle out of the management. For Genevieve would not, could not, pay for these! She was getting them on “prestige,” on the assurance that the “best people” in New York would be present at the party, giving cachet and advertisement to the small club of which these rooms formed the premises. Not only the manager of the hotel but the club president had proved difficult. “You bring in your own food and drink, then, Mrs. Darlington? But you must pay for the use of our servants.” “Certainly I will,” Genevieve had said, haughtily. Hateful to have to scheme like this—but jt would all come out right in the end, with Diana making an excellent marriage! (To Be Continued) CwrrUht. 1935, Kins F«atur«* Syndfeau*. (nr.
