BEGIN HEBE TODAY When Diana Farwell’s mother overhears talk of love between her daughter and her "boy friend,” Louis Nelson, she is fearful that she will “go wrong” like her sister. Vivian, who ran away from home four years ago. She takes Diana to task in puritanical fashion. Mrs. Farwell favors an older man, Arthur Vane, a prominent San Francisco lawyer and an old friend of the family. Louis is insanely jealous when he finds out that Arthur Vane has called on Diana and rushes to see her. Frequent quarrels ensue between them. One night Mrs. Farwell finds Diana and Arthur in each other’s arm and an explanation seems in order. They then announce the NOW g GO m ON WITH THE STOBY CHAPTER VII i—lE STARED at her, reproachI_l fully. 1* *| “Oh, f'.ello, Louis!” • Diana, it isn’t true?” He groaned as he saw her engagement ring. “I see it’s true, all right! Well, I wish you joy.” Tears rose to Diana’s eyes as he turned to leave the porch. “Don’t be angry with me, Louis!” “What do you care? It’s nothing to you what I think.” “2 suppose it shouldn’t be . . .” He Nwung nbout, seizing her hands. “C-% darling, do you mean it is?” H& fierce grasp hurt yet comforted her. “Os course, I care for your good opinion.” He muttered, “I don’t see why you should when you’re engaged to HIM.” Diana, reminded of that fact, withdrew her hands. “Now, let’s be sensible,” she said, more calmly. “It’s true that I am going to marry Arthur. But I have no desire to quarrel with you, Louis, dear. We couldn’t-have even been engaged for years and years.” “Why remind me of it?” “So that you’d understand. I wouldn’t wait that long for any man.” “Why not? You’re not so old.” Diana sighed. How was she ever to make him understand? Why was it so necessary that she should? “I want to be married,” she said, dafiantly. “It’s the only way I can ever get away and see anything. If I lived to be a hundred and was not married, mother would never let me out of her sight.” Louis was watching her face, curiously. “That’s a fine reason,” he said, when she had finished. “I shouldn’t thank any girl to marry me like that.” The girl flushed as he continued, scornfully. “Os course, that’s for Arthur Vane to worry over.” “What do you mean? I didn’t say anything against Arthur.” He seized her again, forcing her down into the porch swing. “You didn’t say anything AGAINST him. No! But neither did you say you loved him. That’s supposed to be the reason a girl marries, isn’t it?” Again doubt was surging in Diana’s heart. But she answered, coldly. “Naturally, I wouldn’t speak of that to you.” “Why not?” Suddenly she began to cry. “Darling, you're crying because you don’t love him.” “I’m not.” “You are,” he insisted, wildly. “And I wont let you go on with it.” “But I must. I want to.” “Then you’re a fool!” he cried, cruelly, and pushed her away. Both rose. “If you insist on being hateful to me .... ” “I insist on being frank. You’re a cold-blooded little huntress, Diana, deadly sure of your aim. But some day you’ll regret it!” < “Don’t, Louis!” 4i “I suppose.” he added, bitterly, “that you think I am a damned poor loser. Perhaps I am, but at least I wouldn’t play the rotten game you're playing.” He flounced down the steps and Diana, tinging herself into the porch swing, sobbed violently. It was terrible the way Lcuis talked to her. How dared he insinuate such things? She was sweet to the boys. She liked attention. Why not? Could she help it if the evening often enced in a scene? She loved to dance and ride and play with them. It was exciting even to have them BEGIN to make love. But no nice girl liked to be “pawed.” She hated Louis. He had implied that she didn't love Arthur. She did love him. Os course, she loved him Elizabeth, returning at 10 o'clock, found the daughter whose engagement she had just announced drenched with tears. “I’m not going to marry ANYONE,” Diana asserted, stormily. “Don’t be temperamental, daughter. What in the world has happened?” Diana, refusing to answer, stalked like a tragedy queen to bed. She had decided definitely to break her engagement in the morning. But with daylight came sanity. Why had she been so upset over the things Louis had said? He knew he could hurt her and he had done so, deliberately. As only Louis could. She was amazed that she had taken him so seriously. After all, her reason for marrying Arthur did not concern him. By the time she was dressed she felt more certainty than she had since accepting Arthur’s ring. She greeted her mother, cheerfully. Elizabeth looked as if she had not slept. “Are you feeling better this morning, daughter?” Diana leaned over to kiss the plump cheek. “Absolutely, mother. I don’t know what was the matter with me last night.” Her mother perked up. “Girls are apt to feel that way before they are married,” she said, wisely, “it’s only natural. . . .” From that time Diana threw herself into her engagement keart and souL Louir would have said she “worked at it.” Dramatizing herself as only a young girl can, she played up to her idea of a fiancee. Arthur was delighted. She clung to him before he went away. After he had gone, she answered his daily letters faithfully, chewing her pen In search of words. But she was often dissatisfied with the brief results.

DIANA

“Dearest Arthur: “Mother and I hemmed some sheets today, and ordered three dozen napkins. My cards have been engraved, too. ‘Mrs. Arthur Vane!’—They are just- darling. They have a beveled edge. “With lots of. love, Diana.” Realizing how far from standard these letters must be, she feared Arthur would be disappointed in them. But Arthur, surfeited with exotic letters during the years of his will-o'-the-wisp career, was surpremely touched by this further evidencG of his sweetheart’s inexperience. Her little notes thrilled him more than any declaration of passion had ever done. He answered delightfully, whimsically as he talked, and the correspondence was mutually satisfactory. Diana was surprised to find herself the center of much interest and admiration.

mother plied her with gifts and invitations. The cedar chest in her room was slowly piled with dainty garments. And the dream of her wedding day was woven like a gossamer web inside her heart. The Rev. Burton’s widow came to call one day when Diana was out. “She seems very young,” she said, “to take on the responsibilities of marriage.” “Oh, I don’t know,” Elizabeth answered, complacently. “I believe in early marriages and Diana is a wonderful coCk. There isn’t anything about keeping house that she doesn’t know.” “But keeping house isn’t all there is to it. When the children start coming . . .” Mrs. Burton thought of her six and sighed. “I’m hoping there won’t be any for awhile,” Elizabeth admitted. “Eighteen is too young to become a mother/* OU PONT NEW CADET /• Quits His Pullman for Air Service Cot.

“Have you—ah—told her anything?” A wrinkle appeared between Elizabeth’s eyes. “I have tried to, but she won’t let me. You know how close we’ve always been, but when I asked her if she didn’t want me to tell her a few things she looked round-eyed and said ‘Please, mother, don’t! The things I MUST know I wish to hear first from my husband.’ “Ah, there’s innocence for you.” For years Elizabeth had suffered the torture of the damned and smiled enduring it, but friendly understanding weakened her morale. “Fan,” she said to her friend, opening the door into Diana’s room. “You don’t know what it will mean to me to see her married to a good man.” She began to cry on the other woman’s shoulder. "God knows I am going to miss her,” she explained, brokenly. "He only knows what I have endured the last four years.

nocent—so beautiful—lt would kill me if anything should happen to HER.” When Diana returned she found the two women examining the contents of her cedar chest with the proper degree of feminine enthusiasm. “Mother has been so generous,” she said, smiling to her mother's caller. “Never a word about the expense of anything. No girl in town has even had a lovelier trousseau. A dozen of everything and all made by hand.” The two women exchanged glances. In the first flush of love, she seemed divinely beautiful. She made their hearts ache. But Diana was conscious only of her mother’s approval. She basked in the warmth of her affection. It was so pleasant to be consulted and deferred to. It made her feel so grown-up. Then, without warning, a storm broke, plunging Diana into uncharted seas. Her mother had gone to prayer meeting on Wednesday evening. Diana was in the living room, embroidering a monogram on her last linen sheet. A box of candy from Arthur was on the table. Bis last letter rustled stiffly inside her blouse. She understood that engaged girls carried their letters there. The envelop pricked the softness of her skin, but she would have scorned removing it. Nothing was farther from her thoughts than Louis Nelson. She had put him out of mind much as she had stuck her dolls in the attic at 12. But looking up suddenly, she saw him standing on the porch staring at her. "Why, Louis. . . .” “May I come in just a moment?” His voice was almost meek, but he looked dejected and unhappy. Diana assented, putting her work aside. “What are you making? Something for your new home?” She did not answer, determined to be formal with him.

girL's AMAZING EXPERIMENT

“What have you been doing lately?” she asked Instead. “Trying to forget you,” Louis answered, promptly. “Don’t be silly, I am nothing to you. Never was for that matter?” “How can you say that, Diana? If you weren't do you think I would insist on seeing you?” She hesitated, alarmed by the melancholy gleam in his eyes, disturbed in spite of herself, by the sudden, wistful sweetness of his voice. “I think.” she faltered, “that It would be much better for you not to see me.” She added, “You only come to hurt me.” “Diana!” “You do! Do you think I have forgotten the unkind things you said the last time you were here?” “I was hurt, darling. I couldn’t believe you’d do a thing like that. My first Impulse was to fling out at you.” Her blue eyes filled with tears. “Well, you did it so well that I never wanted to see you again.” He was beside her, burying his face in the softness of her hair. “I love you, Diana. No matter what you do. I will always love you. . . .” A terrible voice tore them apart. Elizabeth stood in the doorway. Her eyes were popping with rage. “Get out of this house, Louis Nelson! Get out or I’ll kill you. . . To Be Continued
