GLORIA

Gloria Gordon, beautiful flapper, marries Dick Gregory, a struggling lawyer. Her idea of marriage is fun and fine clothes. . . but no work or children. She refuses to do her own housework and hires a maid. But Dick has to let the maid go For Gloria has awamped him with debts for her clothes and anew automobile. She becomes infatuated with an actor. Stanlev Wayburn, and follows him to New York But he spurns her. Then she tries to get a job as a chorus girl and fails. Discouraged, she comes home to Dick. He takes her back, but not as his wife. Gloria.begins to suspect that he is in love with . his secretary, Susan Briggs When he works late she accuses him of being out with Miss Briggs And the bread) between the two widens daily. . . , Finally Gloria makes up her mind to be a. good wife to Dick. She tries to cook, and keen the house clean. But she does a poor iob. Then she inststs that Dick discharge Miss Briggs. And when lie refuses she leaves him. She goes back to her father's house, but is very lonely and unhappy. One day she visits her own bouse, and puts fresh roses in the vases and cleans Did) s little smoking stand. It. almost breaks her heart because Dick has put the house up for sale. . That night, when she goes home, her mother gives her a letter from Dick, in it, ts a check for s■>(). Gloria takes It back to him, and gets a job a* stenographer in the office of Ulysses X. Korgan. a wealthy real estate operator. io On Saturday night while Gloria is all alone in 'her father s home the telephone rings. A man's voice greets her over the wire. By Beatrice Burton CHAPTER LXITT itf l S this Miss Gordon?” the I voice asked again. I. I Gloria knew at once that It must belong to Ulysses X. Forgan. She had given her name to him as “Gloria Gordon” when she started to work in his office. “Yes... .It's Mr. Forgan, isn't it?” she asked. His voice sounded pleased when he answered. “It i5.... Thanks for recognizing me," he said. "I wonder If I could see you for a few minutes? Perhaps you'd like to go for a little drive....” Almost without thinking, Gloria answered: “Os course... .I’d love to go!” The thought of a drive on this sweltering night was refreshing.... just to lean back against the cushions of a car, and feel the wind in her face! It would be heavenly.... “But I can't go!” What was T thinking about when I said 1 would?” Gloria suddenly asked herself. She was half-way up the stairs by that time, on her way to get dressed for the drive.” But she turned and went back to her corner of the porch swing. She stood up. suddenly. “I just will go!” she said to herself, “I’ll have every hit of fun that comes my way!—• • • .What’s the diff?” If she couldn’t have love, she could still have gayety! But her decision came too late. She wasn't dressed! Just then the headlights of an automobile swing down the street. They threw their white glare into Gloria’s face, as Ulysses X. Forgan turned his car and stopped it before the little house.

the walk to the front steps. She could see that he was in a light suit, and carried a straw hat. She welcomed him from the shadows of the vine-hung porch. "How do you do? Would you mind very much If we didn't go for a drive?” she asked. In the iight that shone from the hall of the house, Ulysses Forgan could see that she was in a gingham housedress. Gloria laughed. “All dressed up and no place to go!” she said gaily. “That’s what I'm not! . . . Won't you sit. down? ’ But he stopd where he was, turning his hat ill his hands. “Are you sure you don’t want to go for a drive?" he asked “It's a wonderful night. Miss Gordon.” “Mr. Forgan,” Gloria said, and her voice trembled a little, "I’m not 'Miss Gordon.’ I'm married . . . separated from my husband. I thou Id have told you before. . . Even in the darkness she could feel his eyes on her . . . shocked and startled. “You certainly should have told me!” he said sharply. “It's not my habit to become friendly with young women who work for me . . . And if I had known you were married. ...” “Better let me explain,” Gloria broke in. “My . . . my husband didn’t want me to work. He provides me with money, but I won’t take it from him. So It seemed to me unfair to let people know that his wife was out earning her own living ... as long as I really don’t have to do it. Do you see?” He didn’t answer. There was a long, heavy silence. Then Gloria spoke again. "I’m afraid I won’t be able to work for you, after this. . . . Goodby, Mr. Forgan," she said quietly, and held 3ut her hand. He took his dismissal without a word . . . just pressed her hand and went away. Gloria watched the red tail-light of his car disappear Into the darkness. * * • P r ~~~ OOR, lonely old bird!” she said to herself. “With his sporty clothes and racy car . . . trying to kid himself that he's still young and gay!” There was only one thing in the world that meant anything to her one thing that she really wanted. And that was Dick's love. But she had found It out too late! She’d lost it, and it never would come again. . . . “I wonder where Dick is tonight," Gloria wondered. . . . Perhaps he was having dinner somewhere with Susan Briggs. Gloria thought of the little dinners she and Dick had had in restaurants. How he had resented the admiring glances of men who stared at her. She giggled, in spite of her heartache: “Well, that’s one thing he won’t have to worry about when he’s with Miss Briggs!” she thought. “No one would look at her twice. She's as homely as a mudfence!” There was undeniable comfort In the thought of Miss Briggs’ plainness. . . .

UT Dick was not having: dlnQ ner with Susan Briggs that _Z_J night. He was not having dinner with anyone. At the very moment when Gloria was wishing Ulysses X. Porgan goodnight and goodby, he was tearing along green country lanes in the little car he had bought for her. He came back to town against the wind. It set the blood racing in his veins, and burned his face. It was good to be challenged by the wind . . to defy it with his own speed. All day he had been “blue” . . . low In his mind. Everything in his life, lately, seemed to have gone stole and fiat. . . . It was 9 o’clock when he got back to town. He drove down the street toward home. “Home” these days meant his mother's perfectly ordered house. Perfectly cooked meals.... always on time. His ties were always pressed and folded nea.tly in his drawers. His socks were always mended. There never was a single button missing from his shirts. But, nevertheless, there was something distinctly missing from his life. He didn't know Just what it was, either. ....As Dick swung his car into the driveway, he saw that another car was parked there. His father and mother evidently had guests.... He backed the car out of the drive. The thought of talking to a roomful of people was intolerable to him just then. A half hour later he was In the kitchen of his own house. He had

"Winter is approaching so fast that we are lighting our furnaces and wearing our warm clothing. In this kind of weather our wits are sharper and our brains work more quickly,” said our old professor.

tied a clean dish-towel around his waist for an apron. He held a can opener in one hand and a tin of baked beans in the other. And he was getting his own dinner. A wedge of Yorkstate cheese, a loaf of rye bread, and a baker's pie were on the kitchen table. For this "delicatessen” meal, Dick had foregone chicken pie and raspberry shortcake at his mother’s house that night. He had come home straight from the office to get his car. And then he had driven out into the open country.... Like all people who a.'.-e beset with loneliness, he had wanted to be alone. But he was cheerful enough now, puttering around his own house.... the house where Gloria had so lately been. Ho ate his cold, indigestible food with gusto.

Dick Returns to the Old Home and Memories of Gloria

been in the, house! . . . She had come back! But why? . . . And when? And how had she managed to get in, without a key? Dick tried the living-room windows. They were all locked. Then he went into the sunroom. He saw at once the window that Gloria had pried open. There were marks on the window sill where the clothes pole had scraped it. . . . Dick sat flown in his arm-chair, and looked at the handkerchief in his hands. The initial “O” was embroidered in one corner'of it. And it smelled faintly of mimosa flower. He put it against his nostrils, and the perfume of It brought back to him the memory of Gloria so keenly that it seemed she must still be there in the room with him! . . . Dick could almost sec her there, pitting the long-stemmed roses Into the vase, dusting off the smok-ing-stand with her fluttering little hands. He could hear her lilting voice saying “Rikky-Tikky-Tawy, I need anew hat." or, “Oh, Dick, why worry about the bills?” He found himself staring at the telephone on its teak-wood table In the hall. . . . All he had to do was to give a number . . . tell Gloria that he wanted her. And in a few minutes she would be here. Here in his arms!
