CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE WHILE Sam talked of Moira and his desire to turn over a new leaf, to get away from his past, Linda had listened with cunning knowledge that Sam was weak, that she would have to watch him like a hawk, if he weren’t to queer her game with Phil Stanley. Linda had something, plenty on Sam, she reminded. Sam had admitted it, but said he could return, the compliment. He said what she chose to do now was her own affair, that so far as he was concerned she needn’t worry. As a last dart, Linda had said: “There’s just one little thing, Sam. That Kelly girl. I mean your wife’s sister. She worked for a big firm of lawyers, didn’t she?** Sam admitted it. "And those lawyers are fighting a lawsuit against the Stanley Construction company?” "Yes, what of it?” "It seems to me I read in the papers about some confidential, papers that were stolen, something about an attempted shakedown of somebody who'd like to have that information.” "You’re a smart one—the same old green-eyed Linda.” "Yes, Sam, the same old greeneyed Linda, and Tm still good at mathematics. Still able to put two and two together to make four. You probably couldn’t know anything about that confidential information, could you, Sam?” "Oh shut up!” "Come clean, Sam. I thought you said something about turning over a new leaf.” Sam, cornered, had to come clean. He had told Linda that the old itch for crookery had got the best of him, even to the extent of hovering around the court house where the trial was in progress. He said that he had even played with the Idea of offering his stolen information Cor money to the extent of writing a letter, and that he had lost the letter. He had said be neally had ao idea of going through with it, something about having a little game with himself. “You know, Linda, how you and Lil and Spike and I used to play around with ideas, just for the fun of it." \ Linda had regarded Sam closely. He was the same old Sam. Pulled by the strongest force, which ever way it might be. “So you’ve turned over a new leaf?” “Honest I have, Linda.” "And that little innocent you married knows nothing about anything?” “Honest, Linda, nothing.” “How about her sister?” “She’s a swell kid, Linda. When I think how I almost got her into "Oh cut the sob stuff; It’s settled for good now. You shut up and I’U shut up and we’ll try to stay out of each other’s paths.”

Is it proper for a woman house guest to offer to help her hostess with her household chores? A. It is quite proper for her to make the offer, but hot to insist upon it if her hostess seems firmly against it. Th* guest caa show greatest consideration by keeping her own room clean and orderly.
“Yep, I’m through with the races, too.” Linda knew Sam. * Sam would never be through with anything while there was a gamble in it. • • • Linda had thought of that second meeting with Sam a good deal in the past few weeks. He must have ieft town, she decided. He must have decided to take his “good kid” wife out of her path. She suspected that Sam was in New Orleans or wherever there were races. Wherever he was, now, he wasn’t in town. She had always been able to manage Sam. Now she held a newyvhip over him. Lt he knew what was good for him he would stay out of town. Especially now that Phil Stanley appeared to have completely lost nis head by becoming the financial backer and silent partner in—of all things—a woman’s apparel shop known as Nancy Kelly, Inc. Linda gave another deft touch to her hat, adjusted her silver mink cape, and decided to see for herself just what Nancy Kelly, Inc., looked like on the inside. • • • Moira Kelly and Linda arrived at the doorway of Nancy Kelly, Inc., almost simultaneously. Llpda had seen Moira but twice before. Once in the Empire room when Moira had come in with Sam Sykes and Linda had almost failed to conceal her shock at learning Sam was in the city, and once at the Auditorium when in the scuffle between a half drunken person named Terry Todd and Glen Chalmers, her dress had been ruined by a spurt of Mood from Terry's nose. Linda recognized Moira immediately. She never forgot a face, it was her business not to. Her glance at Moira how had told her two things. One was that Sam was probably back in town, the other that Moira had a striking figure. She wore clothes well. Moira recognized Linda. She was struck with the thought that Nancy’s shop must be attracting some pretty swell customers. They didn’t speak. Linda entered the shop first. Nancy was occupied with a customer at the moment of their entrance. She had her back to the door. When she turned around and her face expressed utter surprise, Moira burst out laughing. "Hello, Sis, you didn’t expect to see me back so soon, did you?” Nancy, after the first shock of seeing Moira, plus that of finding Linda Van VUet in the shop, mustered every ounce of poise to meet the situation. “Hello, Moira. How do you do, Miss Van VlieL” Nancy hadn’t seen Linda since that day gt the Colony Inn. How well she remembered Linda’s words ... cruel fpr a girt as nice as you must be to be made a fool of . . . it would be such a tragedy if

something happened ... if you were common. “What may I do for you, Miss Van VUet?” Nancy motioned to Moira to be seated. Moira flounced into a chair, her short skirt revealing shapely legs to her knees. Linda assumed her society voice. “I read of your shop, Miss Kelly. I was SO interested. It’s lovely.” "I'm glad you like it" “I do nope you succeed.” “I shall.” Nancy’s direct blue eyes looked into Linda’s green ones. There was a world of determination in Nancy’s two words. She hoped Unda got it “May I look wound, see some of your things?" "Do. Mrs. Eustis will take care of you.” \ Nancy turned to Moira. Moira held her hand high, lassumdd a lofty expression, offered Nancy two fingers, and spoke in what was meant to be an eastern accent "t-h-a-r-m-e-d to meet you, Miss Kelly. 1 read of your shop. I was SO interested.” She stood up, assumed her natural voice. /’Nuts to that kind of stuff. Say, she’s the top lofty who was in Phil Stanley’s bunch that night down at the Auditorium. Remember how Terry Todd’s nose bled all over her Schiaparelli model?” Moira laughed raucously. Nancy grasped her arm. “Moira, please.” She steered Moira into the fitting room, handed her a fashion magazine, and went back to her customer. During the next ten minutes Nancy was too busy to notice what had become of Linda Van VUet. When she returned to the fitting room where Moira was so absorbed in the magazine that she mechanically flicked dgaret ashes toward, and missed, a tray, Nancy assumed Unda had satisfied her curiosity about the shop and left. 4a soon as Nancy returned, Moira started talking. “Please, Moira, not so loud. You're not in a forty-acre lot. There may be someone in the next fitting room.” Moira lowered her voice slightly. “bh, all right. What is this, a funeral parlor or something, that I have to whisper?” Nancy ignored the remark. “I thought you and Sam were in Florida.” Unda, in the next fitting room, observing the effect of a gown that Mrs. Eustis had brought her, suddenly lost interest in it, in everything but the conversation in the adjoining room. She pressed her ear against the thin wallboard partition. She almost stopped breathing. She hoped to heaven that Mrs. Eustis wou|d stay away j until i she got what Moira was saying. , (To Bo Continued)
