"Sweepstakes on Low] 1 Zy Ma y Christie I

SYNOPSIS Diana Darlington, of a socially prominent, though impoverished, family, 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 loses. 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 appearance, 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 was 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 of spindly chairs and couches and little mahogany tables that bloomed with the flower* Genevieve 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 three 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 now missing. Her former one had long since been sold. Truth to tell, Genevieve lived I 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. ?he added, quickly: “I’ve been for a walk in the park. It’s an adorable i morning.” “Nothing more interesting than that to toll me?” chided Genevieve archly, watching her child’* face in the mirror. How aickenuigly secretive the younger generation were, despite *ll their f reedom es speech and doi mgs! “IT yon mean Roger Dexter, he

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-1

vieve swung 'round on her stool, her 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 NewYork 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 faee. She poured some astringent stuff on a little pad of cotton and dabbed it over her checks before she spoke. “I’m doing my very best for you according to my lights and my extremely narrow income, darling. Be assured if I talk rather plainly, it’s for your good.” Diana melted immediately. She was ford 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 up and kissed her. “There, darling. We'll not talk about your Week-end. I take it it was not too satisfactory. Let's talk about, your coming-out partv.’’ “Must 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 ths best thing after all. You see, a dinner or supper is so expensive, with the food and all, but a tea is different.** “Nobody druikx tea. They wantj cocktails. Gallons and gallons of I
