SYNOPSIS Annabelle Lord, vivacious Southern beauty, threatens to break her engagement to Robert Starr, assistant professor at Lawton University and a Yankee, because of his extreme jealousy of the many boy-friends who were always on hand at the hospitable Lord residence. Bob asks the advice of Professor Lord, Annabelle’s father, in solving his problem. The professor tells him he must conquer his jealousy and remember one thing which has everything to do with the young couple’s future happ’ness—Annabelle always tells the truth. After his talk with Professor Lord, Bob goes inside to see Annabelle just as she comes trip ping out of the kitchen arm-in-aim with two boys. She does not see Bob until after she has kissed the boys. Despite his resolve. Bob is furious. Later, Annabelle explains that she had come to the conclusion that she and Bob really loved each other and was just kissing her childhood playmates goodbye. Annabelle now realizes that she could never marry Bob because of his unreasonable jealousy. However, she decides to give him just one more chance but she will keep a record of his behavior and, every time he gets jealous, demerits will be marked against him. If at the end of a month they total fifty, their engagement will be definitely broken. Bob thinks the plan ridiculous but, rather than lose Annabelle, agrees. CHAPTER V Annabelle grinned and ran over to the table, from the drawer of which she extracted a small notebook which had been used a long time ago for bridge-scores. “Now listen, honey,” she said. “I don’t want to put a single seratch down in here. If you just look on things right you’ll see there’s no use in being that way at all.” “But you won’t go kissing other boys, will you, Anabelle, and you don’t —” * She clapped a small cool palm over his mouth. “You know I love you, honeyBob, so don’t run on that way—so hush.” He felt like a backward four-year-old. Hinky Bates arrived promptly at four, polite, superciliously grinning, in an enormous nickeled roadster. “Why don’t you and Annabelle come on and ride over to Coonville?” he asked. “We were going, and we’d like to have you along.” Blazing and yet holding what he thought to be good control over himself, he turned his back without reply on Bates, and spoke to Annabelle. “I must jro now. May I call you tomorrow —if you’re free?” “You, Bob!” she breathed accusingly. “That's ten off already.” She made a quick mark in the little book which she still held in her hand. His face turned a deep vermilion. Humiliated, he hated her for a moment. But he held his tongue. She went on: “Bob Starr, you will either come with us and be nice, or I’ll take off another ten. We’re goin’ to pick up a whole crowd, and dust all over, and have a big time. Are you cornin’?” “No,” said Bob. “I’ve got to work.” He bowed, still flushed, and walked out toward the porch. “All right for you. Bob. I told i you. That’s twenty off now.” i •• * * Celia Dann, in black satin hostess i pajamas, watched Bob amusedly over her teacup. She reminded him a little of a cat, with her rather owlishly big eyes, the way she moved, her sharp, incessant femininity. She was his third cousin- But < at least she made him feel like an adult again. He was glad he came

—the first time since March. Celia Dann was thirty-four; the corners of her mouth were worn like old parchment by the flickerings of her bright nervous smile. He could understand why Professor Herbert Dann had left her behind when he went on the exchange professorship to Harvard: she had a sleek, hard mind, a patent-leather soul. Yet he was glad he came. In the neat small sitting-room es the new apartment overlooking Parker Field, among the books that Herbert Dann hadn't wanted, the blue teacups, the late

sunshine and the great copper samovar, Bob could feel detached from the callow whirlpool of Annabelle. He could feel grown-up again. “But it’s so grand to see you,” she said when he apologized for dropping in without warning. “Really, Robert, I never talk with anyone with even a vestige of mind. You know faculty wives. And one can’t affordtoentertainstudents. Tongues would wag themselves off about a grass widow having students in her flat; besides, they’re such boresome youngsters, most of them.” He agreed that they were just that, and walked out into the breathless, hot blue of six o’clock, when there is a benevolent haze over the neo-Gothic spires of Lawton. He held his head up, and walked fast and importantly. The tradition which required students to lift their ' hats to professors on the street increased his sense of well-being. That night after supper he walked several miles —up Hemlock ; Boulevard, through West Avenue, i finally around and through Ludlow Lane to Annabelle’s—where he ex- ’ perienced a net loss of ten more , points. “I meant that,” she reminded him at the door. “You sulked all evening , and said perfectly awful things to Sonny Winwood. I sure meant every word. Two more times like this, and you can consider our engagement 3 off.” f “Can’t I stay awhile after the t others go?” he demanded desperater ly. “Can’t I ever see you alone?” 8 “Alone? Why, you do see me - alone. We can't just sit around and t talk all the time, can we? I like t fun, hpncy, and people around, e These nice boys would b« crazy

about you, if you’d give them half a chance.” , , That night, correcting themes, he was inclined to deduct points here and there a bit more meticulously than had been his wont in the past. He was appalled to see how sketchily his classes were, on the whole, absorbing psychology. He found a note next morning in his mail. This time it was written on pale pink stationery but the envelope bore the return address, marked out, of a fraternity house. This detail enraged him so that ha

didn’t read the missive for half an hour. It said: Bob dear: I v>ant you to tee me every day, because it isn’t fair not to. You know, about the points: we •must test it every day. And another thing—if even after we are married, you should ever get as many as fifty points off, I would leave you like a shot. This is final. Please don’t get any more black marks. With much love, your Annabelle. He tore the letter into microscopic pieces, considering, almost seriously, the possibility of chucking the whole affair. No girl was worth this sort of ordeal. When he pushed open the Lord gate that night, he did so acutely conscious of the fact that he was down fifteen points more in the little black book. These had been entered against him as the result of a telephone conversation during the afternoon: Annabelle had mentioned that they’d have the evening to themselves, except for the brief call of Stewart Truesdale, the first boy she had ever had a crush on, who was driving over from Hancock Landing with a party and wanted to say hello. Bob lost his temper and ought, really, tv have forfeited twenty points. She agreed, after hi had suffered the indignity of beg ging for it, to rebate five points if he’d come over and act like a gentleman all evening. He had, now, only five points to go.
