CHAPTER XIX One boy left, and then the other two. Lane sat on tn the darkness with Natalie. She waa a nice child, he always enjoyed her, in epite of her sharp tongue. "And ao you're Mt ting, waiting | for Margaret, as usual," she said. "Yep. One of the Raleigh twins swallowed a safety pin or something, and they sent for her. I wish ! everyone wouldn't Impose on her.” "So do L But we aU da I hate myself for It, but I do. We’re selfish to the core, the whole kit and kaboodle of us." “You’re entertaining, anyway," he smiled. i She smiled too. "I know. But so's Margaret. That's the funny part. Looks and everything. Sometimes I almost hate her, she’s so 'perfect.'” "Oh, I wouldn’t say that!" I “I would! But I don't really hold it against her. She's a grand gal. Make you a swell wife, by the way, how’s It coming? Going to talk her into It?" He hesitated. Lit a clgaret She took it away from him and made him light another for himself. "Oh, well—let's forget our troubles for a couple of minutes. Tell me about the boat. Are you really going to buy a boat and sail to the South seas?” “Wen, I—" She put her hand on hte. "Honey »—don’t let anybody—not even Margaret — cheat you of what you i want Go! It you have to go (alone!** Margaret said, “Os course I don’t care, Nat darling. Why should I?" "Well, he was yours. X practically took him away from you. At least It would seem that way. I hope you won’t think I did.” "Don’t be silly. If Lane Penney were mine, you couldn't take him away—” Couldn’t . . . But Sue had taken tCenneth . . . And of course, Nat had taken Lane, not that she cared df course. She hadn’t wanted him, she wasn’t jealous. Except that it hurt, just a little when someone who has begged you to marry him .. . well, not in words, but In every other way. for two years, suddenly turns around and gets engaged to your sister! For the first time, Margaret really saw Natalie as an individual, (slot her pert little sister, who was generous with chocolates and »tmgy with bath salts and perfume, tier little sister who had borrowed her silk stockings and beaux and handkerchiefs for years. But Natalie Wickham, a small, blonde woman, with devastating way# and a wide, laughing mouth in which there was no gentleness. She saw, what she’d never dreamed before, that Nat wanted Lane Ferney, that she ached with love for him, as she once upon a time had ached with love for someone who didn’t love her enough. She saw that Natalie was seething with excitement, under her pose of sophisticated boredom: "Lane was mad for a boat, you know, but I talked him out of it and into a trailer, rd rather go to Taos, and it was his original idea, anyway—remember ?” "Yes, I remember," Margaret said. "Oh, you don’t You never half listened to what Lane said. You were always thinking about something else. Sue and her babies .. . Maggie, promise you won’t be angry if I say something?" "Os course, not! If I got angry at all your impertinences —” •1 know, but usually you don't listen. That’s it I’m scared about you, sometimes.

trail around with Kenny and Sue all your Ufa!” “There’s still Joe. and a few others, thank you!”

But her mouth twitched. For a moment she wondered . . . She had thought there waa Lane, too. For a moment she saw herself as Natalie was seeing her, and she saw Joe, as he must seem to others Handsome, tall, bronzed, a blond giant, with a rising reputation in engineering circles. A catch! The man the Deckers would have liked to have for a son-in-law. The man her father and Aunt Bet. and every one who cared about her future, would like to see her married to. And he hadn’t been very loverIlke lately. He’d been gay and he’d been serious and he’d been full of his work, and full of his plans for the future. But he hadn't implied, as he used to imply . . . Well, what If he hadn't! They’d been too busy running around having a good time. And she’d been too busy. And it was nothing to how busy she was going to be now, until Natalie waa married. • a a After the first awkwar dness of explaining that she was being a bridesmaid again—not the bride— Margaret took the entire business happily in charge. There was Daddy to placate, and Aunt Bet While Lane Penney was Lane Penney, junior partner with Jenney A Hollister, he was an eligible bridegroom. But a young man. who withdraws from a profitable and promising post and admits that he hasn’t any very clear idea of making a living while gypsying about the country. Is something else again. Even Aunt Bet's hope that Ids uncle might do the right thing by the young folks, was dashed when Lane admitted blithely that, though Uncle Ttm had taken him into the firm, he had no idea of making him his heir. "Whatever Uncle Ttm leaves will go to his two sisters and his daughter, Audrey.” “But your inheritance, from your mother?" Aunt Bet began, delicately. "Oh. that ?" Lane said, and grinned. "Tel! ’em you squandered it tn riotous living.’’ Natalie prompted. “Well, the truth is by the time father’s estate was settled, mother didn't have anything like the fortune she was supposed to have had And then she died when I was 18. you know, and though Uncle Ttm boosted it some by his handling. I came into It, principal and all, when' I was 21, and — well, I’ve done » lot of spending these Last years, as Nat says—” Nat’s eyes rested, just for a moment on Margaret. Accusingly. Margaret thoughL But before she could resent It, before she could cry, even inwardly. “But I never took anything from him, really.' What he spent on me, he'd have spent on himself or any girl!" Natalie had turned to Lane again. “What does It matter?” she said "We’re going to LIVE!” Aunt Bet tried, ineffectually, to make Natalie listen to her familiar argument about "material things counting, more than you think now, dear ” Alex Wickham brought up, unfortunately, the case history of Sue and Kenneth, who bad married on nothing and. in spite of her parents' generosity, weren’t getting along too well. Margaret winced, and Babs said. “Oh, well. Sue’s a fool and Kenny never did have any brains. He should have etuck to football. It’U be different with Nat and Lane.” "I should hope so!'* Natalie agreed, comfortably. “And. by the way.” Babs went on. “I heard it on terribly good authority, but it’s a heavy secret and I’m not supposed to tell, that Ken IS trying to get back to tootball. He’s applied for a coaching job—coaching football up in the northern part of the state some-

where—some nigh school He 11 have to teach sewing or china painting or something besides though They always do. tn those little schools .” “I hadn’t heard—" Margaret began. •Oh. it’s a secret!" Babs repeated. cheerfully. “And he probably won’t get it, anyway He d have to go back to summer session, or he might have to go back to school for another year to get his teaching credits And he rouldn t do that unless papa Decker paid the bills, and he probably won t “I don’t believe it. Sounds line a lot of campus gossip to me Margaret said, stoutly. And as she thought of Ken. worrying, not telling her. and of Sue who would be no help in the crisis, she suddenly realized something else. That her baby sister. Babs. waa also grown up. That she, too, was an individual a woman grown. That soon she. too, would be marrying If I don’t hurry. I’ll be the old maid in the family, she thought, worriedly. And then she lifted her head, and looked straight into her mirror above the living room fireplace. She saw herself, and her sister, and in the background. Aunt Bet and her father. She saw Babs too, chubby little faee. with the strawcolored hair growing out of a fuzzy permanent She saw Natalies muddy-blonde sausage-like cur u, above a face that was piquant but would never be pretty And she saw her own shining gold waves, above her wide, white forehead, her delicate, perfect features Involuntarily, she smiled She wasn’t vain. She just saw, in the old mirrors faintly greenish depths, what she d always known, what she’d always heard, that she was, and would always be. the beauty of the family • • •

It was tacitly understood that Natalie'# wedding would be a quiet one. It didn't occur to any of the Wickhams that she would want a big wedding. Wasn’t she marrying a boy who would be practically penniless? Weren’t they going off In a trailer, to a sort of artistic oasis on the desert in New Mexico ? But Natalie surprised them all by the extravagance of her ideas. "It’s our stepping off into the simple life," she argued, "and if we don’t make a loud noise over tn? step people will think we just fell''' Margaret thought of Sue's wedding and Sue s trousseau her white satin dressing table, and her handwoven going away gown cut up into coats for the twins But at least the Deckers could afford it and the Wickhams couldn't. It would be largely up to her Nat never saved a nickel, and of course, Daddy couldn't do much. Still, it was the first wedding tn the family, and the more they talked about it, the larger it became. “No fuss," Alex Wicknam said, "but a church wedding of course "Naturally I don’t want a circus wedding, with white satin and tulle and all that," Natalie -said but there's no civilized law against making oneself as easy to look upon as possible Something VERY simple, but mce A gotng-away effect. Something I can use tor traveling, too " Elsons had just the tni n g a French blue dressmaker suit with a deep blue blouse and a deep blue topcoat to go with it. Conscientiously Margaret mentioned it, and the price "But we CAN’T pay that much!” Nat said. “It is really more than 1 can afford. and I hate to run bills at the shop." "Weil. 1 might try it on. Natalie said, “just to get an idea So they bought it. and shoes and hat and gloves and bag to match. (To be continued) Copyright King Feature? Syn 'K-ate. lac.
