SYNOPSIS Three cousins, Scott Prentice, a lawyer; Whitney Prentice, a debutante; and Todhunter Prentice Jarvia, a newspaperman, had grown up together in and around Boston. Whitney had been 15 when she fell in love with Scott, then 20 and a sophomore at Harvard. Now, herself 20, Whitney is returning from a summer in Europe expecting to be formally engaged to Scott that Fall. As soon as he is established with hia law firm and Whitney has come into her inheritance they are to be married. She relates all this to wealthy young Jay Nowell, who fell in love with her in Paris and followed her to America. Tod—and not Scott—meets Whitney at the pier. Tod wonders how he can break, the new, that Scott—only four days before—married Olivia Paul, a visitor from the Midwest whom he had been rushing all summer. In the privacy of his apartment, Tod tells Whitney and sees the color drain from her cheeks. CHAPTER VIII Whitney got up at last, and moved across the room to the opened window. It had begun to rain again. A strong wind whipped at the blue linen curtains and blew them straight out into the room. Between them she stood straight and slim, her head thrown back a little, the rain drenching her face. Tod said: “Don’t stand there like that . . . you’re getting wet.” He walked over and closed the window and laid his hand on her arm. She looked at him and began to laugh. Tonelessly. It was frightening. It was more frightening than if she had sobbed. He would have understood tears. But this strange, unaccented laughter and her eyes very bright and dry. He said: "Don’t, Whit . . helplessly. She stopped. She said: “All right, I won’t.” Then she said: "Poor Tod. Rotten of you to have had to tell me. How you must have dreaded it.” “Never mind that. I’m sorry I didn’t make a better job of it." She stared at him. “Just how could you, I wonder? There ought to be books on how to tell a girl gracefully that the man she thinks she is going to marry has carelessly stepped out and married someone else. You might have taken me to the Touraine, I suppose, and told me casually over a lobster thermidor: Oh, by the way, darling, Scott couldn’t meet you today because you see, he took a day off last week and got married . . .” She caught her breath sharply , and closed her eyes. Then she opened them and said: “When did it happen Tod? Last week?” “Four days ago. In some little town in Connecticut.” “Someone I know?" “No. A girl named Olivia Paul. Someone Kay Reynolds knew at Farmington. She’s been spending the summer with Kay at Marblehead Neck. . . .’’ Whitney said: “I see.” She didn't, of course. She never would. Scott couldn’t have married a visiting girl four days ago. A girl named Olivia Paul. He was going to marry her. . . . She said, suddenly. “Why, Tod? Why did he do it?" “I don't know. I don't believe he knows himself. When he comes to in a couple of months and finds out what he’s done, he’U go mad with remorse . ..” "That,” said Whitney slowly, “won’t help either of us.” “No,” said Tod, “I realize that.” I Then he said: “I’ll start the coffee. We both need some.” He left her and came back pres-

•ntly with a tray of food and an electric percolator which he plugged into a wall socket. Then ho knelt and lighted the fire which was laid on the hearth. Whitney moved automatically toward it but he drew the chesterfield closet and pushed her down upon it and shoved a sandwich into her hand. “Here,” he said savagely, "eat this. It will do you good.” She lifted it obediently to her lips. Then laid it down again. “Sorry, darling, I can't manage it just now. Not even for you.” Tod said: “No, I suppose not. But you ought to eat." She assembled her words slowly. “How did you know . . . about Scott? Did he tell you?” “No, he wired me. He asked me to fix things up at the office and with you.” “Then he did think of me?” “Yes.” "And you fixed things up for him ... at the office?" “That was easy. He had a week’s vacation eoming to him." “But telling me wasn’t easy.” “Telling you was hell." “I know.” She found his hand and pressed it, her eyes going beyond his shoulder into the far corner of the room. After a moment, during which neither of them spoke and rain slashed the window-panes rhythmically and the coffee began to percolate, she said: “Well, where do I go from here, Tod? What do I do with my life now?” “You go on. You have to. You can't let this throw you, Whit. You can’t. . . His fingers were biting into her arm. He forced himself to relax them, to speak quietly. She had been struck down swiftly snd he was forced to stand by and do nothing. To tell her banally that she must go on. “But I don’t want to go on. Everything has stopped. There has never been anyone but Scott. Not ever, Tod. You know that.” He knew it, all right She’d built her whole life around him. Since she was fifteen. He’d stood by and seen her do it He knew now that when she said she didn’t want to go on without Scott she meant it She might as well have finished it and said: “Without him there is no place to go." She said: "Without him tomorrow and the next day and the day after that have no meaning... no significance. ...” Her voice wore itself out. Her hands clenched and unclenched. She said, suddenly as though just discovering it: “I’m frightened, Tod, More frightened than I have ever been in my life. It’s worse than if he had died, really. ...’’ Tod got up and poured her a cup of coffee. Held it to her lips. Said: “Don’t talk, Whit. Drink this. It will stop that awful shaking . . She drank it obediently. It was scalding hot and it burned her lips but she didn’t seem to mind. She drank it all. Then she said: “Thanks, darling, I did need that See, I’m not shaking now ~ and she held out her hands for him to see how steady they were. He caught them and closed his own over them roughly. He said: “Listen. Whit, this has been a body blow. No one knows that better than I do. But you’re going to pull yourself together and see it through. You’re not going to let it lick you. Everyone is holding their breath to see what you are going to do. How you’re going to take it. And you’re going to take it with your chin up and your shoulders back . . . the way Uncle Adam taught you and me to take fences years ago ..."

IOWA GOVERNOR (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) guard, mobilised 260 men and officers and ordered them to the, strike acene, augmenting -601 i guardsmen who have patrolled the I’ city since martial law was declat-. ed July 19. Although providing that e»i ployes return to work at the l per cent wage cut, the proposal I included a promise oi two five per | j cent wagejnereases in the future ”

"Am I, Tod? I don't know, I can t think that fur ahead. That's next week. Next month. All I can think about is today and Scott’s being married. Why did he do it, do you suppose? He really loves me . . . Now her eyes were bewildered. Her voice had ths curious, uncertain quality of a puzzled child’s. Tod’s face was grim. That was the worst of it, wasn't it? That was what made it so ghastly. Os course, Scott loved Whit. But he had married Olivia Paul. Four days before in some little town in Connecticut. "How could he have done it, Tod? When I was coming home? When he was going to see me in just a few days?” "Don’t ask me. I don’t know. Why does Scott do any of the things he does? He isn’t like you or me or anyone else. He doesn’t think things out, Whit. He just goes ahead and does them and the deuce with the consequences. He happened to want to get married. Maybe he read a book or saw a movie or something. Anyway, Olivia was here and you ■ weren’t. You hadn’t been all sum- , mer. Scott doesn’t live in the future ... or the past You ought to j know that Only the present is real to him. Perhaps he’d been drinking. I don’t know. I don’t think so. I think that at the moment he was in love with Olivia. Just as he’s been , in and out of love with dozens of girls. Only she married him. The others didn’t Sorry to be brutal, Whit but Scott is like that When , he’s crazy about a girl, he’s eras/ about her. For about five minutes. You’re the only real, honest-to-God emotion he’s ever experienced. The only thing that’s ever lasted. And you weren’t around.” I I It was a long speech. And Tod wasn’t given to long speeches. He thought: “She will hate me for this , ... al! the rest of her life she will hate me for being the one to tell her the truth about him.” But she spoke and he knew she didn’t hate him. She said:/‘You’re right, of course. I suppose I’ve known everything you’ve just said for years. He didn’t want me to go on this trip. He wanted me to s»ay home and get married. I’m glad I didn’t, Tod. I'm glad I escaped that. It would have been frightful. Being married to a person like that. A person you couldn’t trust out of your sight- Why he’s only a child emotionally ... a charming, spoiled child, Tod. I’m lucky really. I’m terribly lucky. I ought to be cheering. And waving banners and blowing horns. When you think I might have been unfortunate enough to have married him, Tod I Don’t sit there and feel sorry for me, darling! Feel glad. I’m glad. Can’t you see I’m glad? Can’t you see I wouldn’t have it any other way? Can’t you see it’s a marvelous break for me ...” Suddenly her voice went to pieces pitiously and she was sobbing convulsively, her face pressed against his shoulder. He stroked her hair, and presently when the worst of her sobs had worn themselves out he said: “Don’t ever try to lie to me again, darling. Save all those brave young phrases for the rest of the crowd. You’re going to need them.” She lifted her head. “AH right,” she said, “I won’t. I’ll go wash my face. I must look horrible.” Tod said: “The bathroom is the , first door to your left and there are , clean towels. Take your time and , do a good job.” i (To be continued) Copyright i IST, by King Feature Bjwdlcate, Id«u
