SYNOPSIS Gabrielle Snow, lovsly Ig-ysar-old daughter of wealthy Samuel Snow, oil magnate, falls in leva with Peter Partons, a 'vandsome young soda clerh. Peter, however, is a talented singing pianist and aspires to become a composer. Gabrielle's parents object to the match because Peter has no social background. So-one night, while out riding with Gabrielle's friend, Dorothy Machey, and the latter's fiance, Tony, Gaby and Peter decide to get married immediately. Tony prevails upon Dotty to mahe it a double wedding. After the ceremony, Gabrielle recalls that her uncle's will stipulated that if she married before she was 21, she would not gst her inheritance until she became 3S. “I'm glad of It," Peter announces “I'd never have married you if I'd known you would have so much money. Now you'll have to be dependent on me!" At first, the Snows are furious, but finally give their blessing Peter declines their offer of financial help, insisting on supporting his wits himself, so the young couple rent an unpretentious 525-a-monthapart-m»nt. Despite its plainness. Gabrielle awakens the first morning with a feeling of supreme happiness. But all is not so serene when Peter returns from work that night to find his home refurnished by hie in-laws. They quarrel and make up repeatedly Then, one day. Peter gets a letter from New York, saying the music publishers liked Peter's song, that if he could only be there with I an orchestra, he might get on a radio hook-up. Lack ot money stops Peter and he squelches Gaby's suggestion that he borrow from her father, firmly believing that some I day he will be successful on his own So everything goes on as before; love and quarrels intermingled. The d'.mu comes when the electricity is turned off. Geby having neglected to pay the bill. Peter goes to bed angry and leaves nest morning without saying goodbye Gabrielle storms. “I simply won't stand it! Hl get a diverse! I hate him!” CHAPTER TWELVE After bathing and dressing. Gaby harnessed Odd, utterly ignoring the u**ual program which called for a morning rump. Hh. lek the apartment still in a fury of resentmegt. Once in the car, with Odd in the seat boide her, she drove around aimlessly. Inside she wae seething *>ver Ute fact that Peter had net kissed her goodbye. He acted as though she were a criminal because she had let lh« old bills r**' Hodden l> she lesolved to go pay them she had money in her purse; her mother saw to it that she always had spending money. She had never told Peter of thia i and she sometime* wondered if her father know about it. Her mother always gave It to her in cash, aad when they were alone. Helen bought her many hits of clothing and whatever else she admired ib the perfumes and the like: but poor Peter, the old dear, never noticed. He really was a darling! At the eieetrk office, she parked, admonishing Odd to slay In the car until she returned. Thea she went n It was the first lime Gabrielle had ever gone to pay a hi!! in her 1 life, She waited in lino for almost ten minutes, only to he V*l4 when she finally gained the window that Mr. Parsons had taken earc of the bills that morning. Gabrielle was furtaus. Back in her coup*, she drove qukkly out to the country club. She hadn’t patronised thia place as much this summer az abv used to du. and i wasn't sure whom she might find around at the luncbeoa hour A long Una of highly polished anlomobilssakrnd parked neatly before the entrance to the golf links, while ( on the club house steps tat Eol* Elkhorn, smoking a cigarette and loufc. mg utterly dissatisfied with hi* part *1 She bonked e»< long cry and <*heß Bob ladud up. she easot'. sad i brought the rar to a sUndsuli.

"Lunch?" he invited quickly. “Sure. Why not?" she laughed. Gabrielle had worn a handblockcd linen of pale green and orehid and yellow, printed on a chalk white ground A saeh of braided silk in these same colors, together with s pale green hat and sandals, made her look more goldea than usual And, over their fruit eocktaito, Bob looked bio admiration. "Thought you’d gone out of circulation for good," he offered. “Did you really?** Gabrielle per. ried, smiling. "None of us ever see you any more since that Parsons guy ran away with you." "Missed me then, have you?" Bob became serious. "And how, Gaby," he admitted Gabrielle felt a glow of satisfaction come over her. Oh, if Peter would only mix with this crowd, and it wasn't as if they couldn't! Why, her father was a charter member of this club, and she’d practically grown up out here. I-earned to swim here, to dance, to flirt, to—oh. shr might as well admit it. she was siek of poverty! "Whaffe wrong in seeing tbo gang once in a while. Gaby?" Bob was asking. "Being married shouldn't take you completely away from your old friend*." Gabrielle smilud. “It hasn't, I as sure you, Bob." she said. "I've just been busy, you know.” "Yes, I'd be busy too. If you were mine, Gaby; and I’d keep y**u happy too, believe me. But I think yon ought to got out more — you and Peter." Going hvm*, after the harmless little luncheon with Bub, Gabrielle frit guilty somehow. Te begin with there wasn't a thing in the apartment for their dinner. And then she remembered that Peter would be home now. Hr had been off for ovtr an hour, she noticed. This was his week of working the early shift When she fame in he was it. the . kitchenette, and the odor of frying j meat Ailed the small hot place. There were two places laid at the table,' she noticed, as she took off her hat and laid it on the divan. “Hello, home already?" she asked, as she earns to the kitchenette door. "Yes. I'm home." replied Peter quietly. There was no reproach in his voice. It sounded tired and listleae and almost indifferent “Well. I must eay, Peter, that I’ve always gotten you »*>mething to eat!“ eapledod Gabrielle. She couldn't help but notice that Peter’s steak was browned se much nicer than hero ever was. and the ensp fried potatoes looked gsW*-n toe. He wae fixing a salad of tomatoee and lettuce, and he didn't reply to her ranark. Although the food looked good, and she eeuld have eaten some of it, she said perversely: "Don't sis me anything. Peter! I'm not hungry. It's too hot to eat." "WeO. it is bet here compared to the air-eooiod country dab." ba admitted mildly. She looked at him sharply, but Peter was looking at tbe salad. The food looked so appetising snd had Peter urged her to eat with him Gabrielle wouldn't have refused a tecond time "Who told you about my luncMug at the club ?” she asked, flaally. “Oh. several of your friend, look special pains to tell me they saw you lunching with Bob Elkhorn" His face flushed suddenly, and he fold down his fork. "I’m warning you. Gaby, dos t do It again! 11l aet have my wife being talked about’ I'll not be mode a laughing stock for those good-far nothing wastrels!” Flared Gabrielle: "I'll luaeh with whomever I please!" "Not while you’re living with Peter got up and went into ths kitchenette. Ho stacked tbe dishes, then went te bed without a word. After a long while Gabrielle again went to bed oa tbe divan. Inside she was seething, ihe knew if she would only lay a hand oa Peter, or ktas him. he would be begging her to forgive hi* words, bat temgh» she mN mere st ebb irn than I she bad tbe night before And-1
