THREE KINDS of LOVE .#. BY KAY CLEAVER STRAMAN

BEGIN HERE TODAY ANNA and CECILY FENWICK have for year* supported themaelves, their younger iitter. MARY-FRANCES gnd their grandparent*, known aa "ROSA-' LIE" and "GRAND." _ ...... Because ol this financial responsibility. Ann. who is 2. Is unable to marry PHlt ECROYD. young lawyer to whom she has been engaged lor eight years. Cecily, 22, loves BARRY McKEEL. an engineer, but wnen he proposes she refuses to name their wedding date for the same reason. . .. , Mary-Frances, 15. and still In school, strikes "p an acquaintance with EARL DE ARMOUNT. vaudeville actor, and meets him secretly. He tries to persuade her to become his stage partner. Ann and Phil quarrel when she hears LEFTY KINO, who works in Phil’s oßloe building, address him with endearments. De Armount continues to urge MaryFrances to Join his act and she promises to give him her answer next eve- , nlng welly is disturbed when she learns Barry has left town without telling her about it. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR “TTYPOCRITE!” said Cecily. “I Xi don’t see how you bear it, angel. Truly 1 don’t. “If they start acting toward me, now that Barry and I Well, if they act about us as they act about you nad Phil, I will not stand for it.” “Yes, you will, dear. You’ll have to. It is odd, though,” said Ann. "I was so afraid they’d blame Phil and be all soppy about sympathizing with me—that line. And instead they act as if I’d injured them, personally and on purpose, by breaking my engagement.” “You never can see through them, can you? I can read them like a ‘ primer. They are so glad and so relieved—away down deep, I mean, they don’t know that they are, of course—that they have to cover quickly, and petulance always is at hand and easy. “All that talk the other evening about Mrs. Carmichael’s sister and her husband being so happy and well off—l suppose you didn’t get that, either?” “No, I didn’t. Do you think they were just pretending to think that the old people’s home was pleasant?" “Honestly, as Marta would say. No, they weren’t pretending that the Days—is that their name?— were well off, nor that the home was pleasant. “They were thinking so with all their mights and mains, so that they couldn’t possibly be glad that you and Phil were no longer engaged, and that we both were working for them, and that there was no danger of their ever having to live In such a place. * “It is all very well for us to be wntimental and say they don’t :ow that we are keeping them, and keeping this ding-dang old house for them to live in. “They do, too, know it. They’d have to. But knowing ana recognizing or admitting are different things. We are as bad as they arc We won’t admit that they know’— because we don’t want to be sorry for them or ashamed of them. “Grand has been disagreeable and ugly about Barry from the very first. The only excuse in the world he could give for trying to make trouble was because we weren’t engaged. “He’d have had a better excuse, , and made more fuss if we had been engaged the minute w'e met. No—they are afraid. They are scared to death.” “Oh, poor dears.” “Stop it, Ann. You make me sick. They can be blissful enough now ” “Just the same, whether you like it or not, Cissy, we do owe them ; i lot.” 0 0 0 •”W7'ES, but in all conscience, JL aren’t we ever going to get the debt paid? Do you know what is going to happen to us, Ann, mortgaged for life, as we are? “Before long we’ll stop being the ’ Fenwick girls, and we’ll be those Fenwick girls. We’ll go queer. We’ll shrivel and simper and look bony and pathetic. “We’ll sniffle and have stys on our eyes and cavities in our teeth, and we’ll pick ’em with our fingers—” “Cissy, stop that, now. I won’t have it. That isn’t funny. That’s coarse and horrid.” “I’ll say it’s horrid! And I know I’m getting slangy, so you don’t need to tell me. I’m doing it on purpose. After this I’m going to do as I please; or, at any rate, I’m going to be what I please as well as I can, chained up in prison. “I think I’ll begin to smoke. They say smoking is remarkably quieting to the nerves. I wish I had a , cigaret now'. I wish I had a pipe!” “That’s it," Ann approved. “I’d much rather have you go on the loose than languish. In the old books, you know, the heroines al-

ways languished, the lazy things, and died of broken hearts. “But the-heroes went straight to the dogs, enterprisingly, and drtnk dregs, and came along nicely and reformed and married the other girl.” “Oh, well, of course, Ann, if you think it is funny!” “Think what is funny? Take a dry tea towel, dear.” “Think I'm funny! Or think our situation, yours and mine, is funny! Suppose the door bell were to ring this minute and we’d go and find Phil and Barry both standing there, both wanting to make up. And we : would ” "No ” said Ann. “But suppose. Then what? We’d begin all over again, where we all were a month ago. I couldn’t quite | because I was dreaming all month, 1 and I’m awa,ke now. “But, anyway, there we’d be—doing what? Waiting and hoping. And then all this would happen right over again. It is the only thing that can happen. I’ve been like Grand and Rosalie, I’ve refused to face the fact; but I’m facing it now. “We are stuck, Ann—you and 1. 1 There isn’t any way out. We can’t j have love. We can’t have any- ! thing.” “We have love, if it comes to that, Cissy. We have each other and Mary-Frances ” 000 “X7'OU’RE evading. You know JL what I mean. Phil has waited for you all these years, because you are the most beautiful thing In the world. “Barry wouldn’t wait for me like that. I shouldn’t allow him to—maybe. And even Phil got tired. Not tired of you, angel—but tired of waiting and hoping. He doesn’t care for that common little King thing—he couldn’t after you. But, well—men are men.” “So I have heard,” said Ann. “Women are women, too. That is repetition. That’s not reasoning. At best, it is a cute little convention men evolved to use in place of decency and loyalty—ages ago. “They’ve needed it. We haven’t. But there is this, Cissy, honey. I wasn’t going to say it to you right now, because I thought it might make you more unhappy, in a way. “But now I think I’ll say it anyhow. I’ve been thinking the last few days, and if Barry comes back, as I know he will, and begs you to marry him, I want you to do it—soon. “I really want you to, dear. I want it more than anything. I’m going to insist that you do.” “Big chnace! Let you down and leave you with all this burden. I couldn’t and wouldn’t, and you know It—or you should. You haven’t let me down, all these years and years you and Phil have been en- I gaged.” “Phil is out of it now. You could keep on working and helping at home. You’d have to, I’m afraid, for a while. I could manage the rest. As you say, Mary-Frances • should be more help—” “There’s no good talking like that. ! Ann. I wouldn’t want to do it, I hope, and if I did want to I—couldn’t. So that is th end of that —please. Please don’t ever talk about it again, angel. I mean it.” Ann stooped to hang the dishpan in the cubbyhole under the sink. To Philip she said. “See there? Always accusing Cissy of letting me down. Predicting perfidy for her, and making me afraid, and making me mean aobut Barry at first, and all. “Cissy doesn’t seem to be the one who has let me down, does she?” Conversations of this sort, she had discovered, were excellent counterirritatns. Cecily asked, “Did you have a good time with Kenneth this afternoon?” “I suppose so. The river was glorious. He is teaching me the crawl stroke —or trying to. I’ll sweep, and you set the try for breakfast, will you?” “He’s—mad about you, isn’t he, Ann?” “Not a bit in the world. If he were, I wouldn’t play with him. He is 22 years old, and he’s found the game of love and thinks it is fine fun, and I’m an interesting opponent.” "Or partner?” 000 “T TE is 22 years old, I said. And IJ. young for his age. In many ways he seems younger than MaryFrances.” “Twenty-two isn’t an infant In

arms—even for a man. And especially not with all tha. money. Just think of the money that kid has. “Barry said someone told him that old Mr. Smith left nearly two million dollars —half of it Kenenth’s when he came of age, and all of it his sooner or later. Think of it, Ann!” An said, not althogether humorously, “What shall I do, Cis? Marry him, os ask him to endow our family?” “Angel—you could marry him if you wished to?” "Yes, I think so; if I’d hurry about it and kidnap him before he comes out fro munder the anesthetic.” “My word, Ann! Don’t go off like that. I was only thinking that, after all, not many girls in our class ever even have a ghost of an opportunity to marry two million dollars.” Our class is better than his class. His father made most of his money in junk—just plain junk, during the war and right after. ‘Smith and Rozenblatz,’ so I think it probably wasn’t even the Smith brains that made it. Kenny is a nice, sweet child; but I don’t feel particularly set up because of his attentions.” 000 “TSN’T it queer,” Cecily mused, letting Ann’s remarks pass, “that when the King girl had her fingers on all that she didn’t hold tight—clutch?” “Not so very,” "said Ann with a trace of chilliness. “Kenny’s and her friendship was a next-door neighbor affair—since childhood. She dances extraordinary well, and dresses well, and is good fun—he says. “He liked to play with her, sometimes; but he never dreamed of marrying her, and she knew it. I imagine she is tired, of working and wishes to marry. And then Phil is so handsome, and poor Kenny is so homely." “I don’t think he’s homely,” Cecily said. “Uh! Big freckles and crowded teeth that leap out at you from above and almost no chin. I’d as soon kiss a quince.” “Have you kissed him?” “Not that it is any of your affair, but I haven’t—and I won’t. See here, Cissy, if you’re so made about him, and his money, and his looks, and his family—why don’t you take him? “I’ll trade him for your new green satin mules that Barry gave you. I’ll trade him and give you something to' boot for—” “Sh-h-h!” warned Cecily. But it was merely Mary-Frances. She had come directly to the kitchen from her tryst with Early in the moonlight. Her face was seraphical. She said. “I’m starved. What is there to eat?” iTo Be Continued) PICK STATE EDUCATORS Four Hoosiers Among List of 100 Industrial Art Leaders.

TARZAN THE TERRIBLE

After voicing that blood-curdling victory cry, Tarzan sheathed his hunting knife and turned toward the man-thing. For a moment the two stood appraising each other. Then the manthing spoke in a language totally unfamiliar to Tarzan. But he knew it was some sort of human speech and was convinced that though the creature before him had the tail and thumbs ancfjgreat toes of a monkey, it was, in all other respects, quite evidently a man.

The blood, which was now flowing down Tarzan's side, caught the creature’s attention. From the pocket pouch at his side he took a small bag. Approaching Tarzan he indicated by signs that he wished the ape-man to lie down that he might treat the wound. Then he sprinkled the raw flesh with the powder from the little bag. The pain of the wound was as nothing to the torture this remedy inflicted, but the ape-man was accustomed to physical suffering and withstood it stoically.

—By Ahern

In a few moments not only had the bleeding stopped but the pain as well. The man-thing’s voice was low and pleasant. Tarzan spoke to him in various tribal dialects of deepest Africa. Then he; tried the language of the great apes but it was evident the creatine understood nor.e of them. Seeing that they could not make each other understand, the pithecanthropus advanced toward Tarzan and placing his left hand over his own heart laid the palm of his it hand over the heart of the ape-man.

Tarzan understood this action was a form of friendly greeting. So he responded in like fashion which seemed to satisfy and please his new-found acquaintance. Then, tipping back its head, the man-thing sniffed the air. Pointing suddenly to the carcass of Bara, he touched his stomach. Understanding, Tarzan waved his hand in invitation and the manthing, leaping nimbly as a little monkey to the lower branches of the tree, made his way quickly to the deer's carcass, assisted always by his long, strong sinuous tail.
