CHAPTER XXIII Four more blocks. Talk about something else, Whitney. Anything else. Drive carefully. Don’t take any chances; Olivia is going to have a baby. In October. Well, New York is exciting in October. All the new shows are opening. There’ll be new places to dine and dance . . . and you’ve always wanted a yellow taffeta evening dress. By October if you work hard you should rate another promotion at the office. You’ll be twenty-two year* old and making quite a lot of money and you’re very attractive looking. In just a little while you’ll be thirty and making a lot of money and you’ll still be nice looking. You’ll be exactly like Helena. Nothing ever hurts Helena any more. And you knew thi* wouldn't work out. You knew it wasn’t any good. You knew it all the time, really ... It is a long or a short time from March until October . . . depending upon how you spend the seven months involved. Whitney spent them quietly. She came back to New York on a rainy spring evening and went straight to the apartment hotel where Tod lived. She went up without being announced and when he opened the door and saw who it was he was too surprised to do anything, even ask her to come in. So she walked past him, and sat dowm in a rather shabby red leather chair and pulled off her hat. He saw then that she looked incredibly whitefaced and tireder than he had ever seen her look before and for a moment he was frightened. He said: "What is it, Whit? What on earth has happened? I thought you were staying in Boston .. She tossed her hat, a classic gray felt, and her gloves onto his desk and dragged her lips into a semblance of a smile. She said: “Tod, my dear, I have come to tell you that I have been an utter fool and to ask you to please forgive me for having been and to promise you that it will never happen again. This time lam through. Completely.” Tod went inte the pantry and came back with a small glass of brandy. Looking at ber, he was reminded sharply and painfully of another time when he had seen her looking much as she did now and for much the same reason. Only then it had been October and a fiat on Charles Street. . . . He said: “Drink this ... and tell me as much or as little as you care to . . . but please try to look a little less punished, darling ...” She drank the brandy dutifully and eventually it brought a little color into her lips and cheeks. She said: “There is very little to tell. Olivia is going to have a baby. Tod. That settles things permanently, I should say, between Scott and me. You have been patient with me for a Jong time, darling, but now your patience is about to be rewarded ... and your troubles so far as I am concerned are, I should say, practically over ...” Tod said, “Oh, my dear .. and turned away from her abruptly belore she should see his face go to pieces. It was almost as if she hated him in this moment of renouncing Scott. It was almost as if she had come here to punish him deliberately . . . with th t mocking, torn note in her voice and her face so white and smiling. . . . She stared at him for a moment and then she stood up and walked over to him and laid her hand on his shoulder. She said: “Don’t, Tod. I'm not worth it, really. And I’ll be all right. Only try to like me again ... as much as you used to . . . otherwise I can’t bear it . . .” He said: “Like you ... like yen, Whit . . .” and suddenly his arms went around her and he was holding her close. He was laughing. Husk- i ily. The sort of laughter that is dangerously close to tears. “Why, you little nut. of course, I’ll like you again. I adore you . . . you know that. I always have .. . ever since i

we were lads. There’* never been ; anyone like you, Whit . . . there . never will be.” That was all. Presently he sent her into the bathroom to wash her face and make up her mouth and then he took her downstair* to a restaurant and ordered food for her < and saw that she ate it. By the time she had finished and he had taken her in a cab to Helena’s she was quite herself again. She left him never once realizing how close he had come back there in his apartment to telling her the truth about himself . . . and her. Closer, surely, than he had ever come before or was i ever to come again during the summer that followed. It was a summer not so much i different from one that had preceded i it. Except that now Tod was being sent out of town more and more to cover important assignments, political conventions, criminal trials, , national disasters. He was rapidly i becoming an important newspaper- 1 man and by fall he would be getting 1 a by-line. Jay was busy too. He had had a long talk one evening with 1 Whitney. He had said: “You’ve i never said anything, Whit, but I i have a very good idea that you don’t I approve of my lily of the field existence ...” < Whitney had flushed a little and said: “Nonsense, Jay, why shouldn't 1 I approve? I suppose that if I had 1 had a mother who had happened to 1 marry a man with an unlimited 1 amount of money I wouldn’t work ] either, I mean spin . ..” not quite sure?” j “Well,” she admitted, honestly, “it must make life rather pointless. I j mean that it seems to me that leisure 1 which ought to mean a lot wouldn’t 1 mean anything if your life was com- 1 posed entirely of it and nothing else, i It would be a little like having caviar three time* a day and never I any bread and butter.” i Jay laughed a little shortly. “The 1 solution is to keep moving, of course. « To never stay long enough in one | place at one time to exhaust its leisure resources. Once you do, you f are sunk.” Whitney said: “Are you trying to f tell me that you have stayed too long c in New York?” And, asking him, realized with a little shock how j much she had come to depend on him in the last year and how much she , would have to readjust her life if he I were to go away. He reassured her at once. “No. I suppose I am trying to tell you that 1 I have stayed in New York too long doing nothing. I am about to get * myself a job, Whit.” “What sort of job?” “Commercial flying. I’m not quali- 1 fied to hold many jobs, darling, but lam a darned good pilot I shouldn’t a have much difficulty convincing 0 some company that they need my ° services.” ' He didn’t have. And by July he a was flying a passenger plane to s Miami and getting a tremendous kick out of it. I Whitney wondered sometimes if " he would have been so keen to take h a job which kept him out of New y York a great part of the time if c Ginny hadn’t been playing stock in ’ the provinces. She thought that ” probably he wouldn’t a By October she had come to ac- 0 cept a great many things. That she 1< was done, for instance, with most of a the things that had belonged to her a youth. She thought of a certain 0 part of her life as being definitely A ended and another part begun. A a part which had to do with Helena t< and an apartment on Murray Hill 1 and a job in an advertising agency a and wearing sophisticated clothes t< and going about, when he was in v town with Jay, or, when he was in 8 town, with Tod. And Tod never made a love to you because you had known a him all your life and you were sort si of cousins and Jay made love to you “ occasionally, but never urgently because he was really in love with <

someone else. But that was all right too. That was the way it should be. Because love in this summer of nineteen-thirty-four was not one of the more important emotions. You had grown up. You hnd gone beyond that. You had learned to stand clear of thunder. * She was trying these days quits deliberately to fit her life (to Helena’s pattern. And succeeding better than she knew. In time, if she continued to work hard, she would be quits as successful. Would undoubtedly be able to make quite as much money and to live quite as independently. Helena, seeing what was happening. worried about it. Once she spoke to Whitney. She said: "Years ago something happened to me which sidetracked me temporarily, with the result that ten years later I find myself all tangled up with a job which pays me too much money to be discarded lightly. 1 should hate, Whit, to see the same thing happen to you.” “On the contrary,” Whitney told her coolly, “that is exactly what I intend to have happen to me if I can arrange it... and it is beginning to look as if I could.” Helena said: “What do you mean exactly?” “I mean, darling, that ten years from now I intend that my life shall be precisely like yours . . . that is, I want to have an important job, a lot of amusing friends and no close, personal relationships.” Helena said shortly: “Good heavgpj. child, you can’t possibly know whdt j'ou want of your life ten year* from now ...” But looking at her she was not so sure. There was something about Whitney these days which made you believe that she did know what she wanted and that she intended to get it Helena thought: “She has been badly hurt and does not intend to he again but she is much too lovely looking to spend the rest of her life at an advertising job, no matter how good a one ...” By October it had become a very good one indeed. So good that Whitney bought a new fur coat and planned to go with Helena on a cruise at Christmas time. And in October Olivia's baby was born in Boston. Whitney read Hester Prentice’s telegram and wired two dozen roses to Olivia and sent the baby, which was a girl, a quilted satin carriage robe. She thought: “I’m glad it was a girl. Olivia will like a girl better.” She did not think what Scott would like. She did not allow herself ever to think of Scott any more. And then October, which she had dreaded painfully for months without once admitting it to herself, was over and it was November again. After that the weeks slid by swiftly as they have away of doing and suddenly it was winter. That was the winter that “Stars Fell on Alabama.” Thar was the winter that New York was gay as it had not been for years. For more years than Whitney, or even Tod, could remember. It was the second winter of repeal. It was a winter when women wore silver fox capes and bars continued to spring up all over town, extravagant with white leather chairs and circular mirrors and chromium and chartreuse green and scarlet. It was a winter when orchestras blossomed overnight and flourished exceedingly. People danced again in the afternoon. They danced to such tunes as “Hands Across the Table” and “On the Isle of Capri” and “Blue Moon.” And ail over town, girl entertainers with husky voices sang “Parlez moi d’amour” and on subways and street corners and in elevators and office corridors and penthouse apartments, people sang the words of a song called ’You’re the Top.” (To be continued) Cacyrllht, 1437, by Kln« Featura* eradicate.

The Adame county memorial hospital did more business tnd took care of more patients in proportion to its population than any other county ; hospital in Indiana, according to survey figures released by The I Medical Journal. "Ou August 20th, 1938, there were I nine persons, seriously injured in automobile accidents who were brought to the Adams county hospital. All entered the hospital within five minutes of each other's entrance. There were only two beds available so rthe nine people injured. They were (placed in halls and in the sun room. Surely this shows the inadequacy ot the present building. Contagious and mental cases would be segregated in one end of the new addition. In past years space has not been available for complete segregation of these cases. “The tax rate for Adams county would not be increased to pay the cost ot the bond issue ot *33,000 for the new hospital addition. Public inspection of existing conditions at the Adams county Memorial hospital is invited by the board of hospital trustee and the Adams county commissioners.
