CHAPTER TWENTY 23 S George Thorvald’s recovery "A progressed, there was a very evident effort on the part of the household to keep the daily routine in the same, normal grooves of everyday life. ; - The portrait, Constance knew, was under way again. At Hildegrade Thorvald's request, she had gone with her to the studio for the first sitting. She did not want to go; but Hilda insisted that she needed moral support. “This portrait was Dad's idea— not mine,” she told Constance. “Personally I think the whole thing’s a complete headache. But if having me glorified on canvas as a California product seems to

Dad an exciting way of spending the poor lamb

up to date. The only pastime he’s ever really thrown his soul into is glorifying everything Californian.” Constance had to laugh. You couldnt ‘be with Ernest Thorvald long without realizing that. “You see,” Hildegarde went on, “Dad came here a poor immigrant boy; and made his fortune here. Now he’s gone more native than any mative son I ever met. You'd think to hear him sometimes that he personally had prepared the formula for the particular brand of sunshine we put on the markst out here. . . . Then you are coming to the studio with me, aren’t you?” “I can’t see what good my being there will do, unless”—Constance finished," turning the knife in her own heart just to show herself she could bear it—“I hold Mr. Manthon’s brushes.” “Oh, youll be . there,” Hilda stretched her long, beautiful limbs and smiled lazily. “When I begin to feel too gosh-awful glorified, I’ll look at you, and we can laugh. You're one of the few women I've ever met who know just when to laugh—and how much. ... And if I must be ‘painted, I've got to be amused.” ; » - » O Constance went—that once. | She saw immediately that her being there was a cruel mistake. Cruel to Derek. It threw him _pitifully off his stride. All the facile, charming things he should have said to reassure his subject and put her gracefully at her ease seemed to freeze on his lips. “And if it were amusement Hilda hoped from Constance’s presence, she obviously was not getting it. There seemed, somehow, to be amazingly little to laugh about. Hildegarde, herself, seemed absent and preoccupied, as if there were something she were trying to puzzle out. ¥ Hildegarde had had her way in one respect at least. The portrait was not to be, as Derek had laughingly described it to Constance that last day in the studio, a still life of luscious fruit with Hilda as the presiding deity of the harvest. “I won't be all trimmed up like a float in the Carnival of Roses,” she had announced at breakfast with an unaccustomed decision in fier lazy voice. “I'll be painted ex-

heart, why a few weeks ago I should have said, “It means so much to us!” . .. Have we really grown so far apart—Derek and I? . . . And yet I love Derek. I am angry and hurt and humiliated, but I still love him. ... Or do I? Yes, she decided. If thinking of someone the first thing in the night, if suffering when you could not be sure what he was thinking or doing at any time of day, if having your heart turn completely: over when you saw him or heard his voice unexpectedly—if ‘all these things meant that you loved; then she still loved Derek. 2 = o ” ARK ROGERS came to the studio for a few moments than morning. He nodded briefly to Derek, spoke a few words to Constance in his amused, infuriatingly detached way, and then lingered to chat with Hildegarde Thorvald—telling her something funny that had happened to him that morning. They seemed to understand each other—those two—quietly, humorously, effortlessly, as if between them there was no need for pretenses or evasions.’ With Hilda, he was a different man from the one Constance had always knowh— younger, more relaxed, bubbling with infectious good 'humor. While they were talkingy, and laughing together, Constance turned to a window and stood looking out over the white blooms of the fruit trees toward the crumpled blue of the distant mountains — feeling, somehow, a little forlorn. It might be vary — well — comfortable, she thought, to have a man like Mark Rogers turn to you so naturally for companionship ‘and understanding; to feel as Hilda obviously did with him, no need for putting up little feminine defenses. Derek, who when Rogers came in, had turned somewhat sulkily to the business of mixing colors,: strolled with apparent aimlessness over to where Constance stood, and said softly, “Connie,. I must talk to you.” “Well?” Constance’s smile was all sweetness and open candor, although her heart was pounding. “You are talking to me, aren’t you, Derek?” “You know what I mean.” His voice was thin with impatience. “Alone. We can't go on—" “Derek,” Constance said steadily. “When we talk together alone, it

night? “No one can help not loving someone any longer.” It had sounded so childish when Mark Rogers had teased about it. But was it? True to his word, Ernest Thorvald had had a horse run into the corral for Constance—a slim-legged, spirited sorrel chestnut. And the new riding clothes from Los Angeles fitted perfectly. In the saddle Constance looked like a slight, darkhaired boy. She rode every day now—sometimes alone, sometimes -early in the morning with her host. She liked riding with Ernest Thorvald because he was steeped in the Spanish lore of the country, and told her many romantic legends of the early days in the Southwest he loved so much. Oftener Constance rode with her hostess. Hildegarde Thorvald, who was never known to move faster than a stroll afoot, became a reckless Valkyrie on horseback. She rode as she played the piano and sang, with a kind of tempestuous abandon. Her horse, a magnificent highstrung black, was as eager to run and as tireless as she. There was not much time for story-telling when one rode with Hildegarde.

One morning while they were at |

breakfast, Mark Rogers, coming in for an early visit to his patient, brought a message that the horses of “la ama de la casa” and the senorita were waiting. [he Hildegarde said, “Sorry, Constance. I'm having to look after some things here while Dad runs up to Los Angeles. . . Derek, why don’t you and Constance go for a gallop?” -

Rep. O'Connor—Mr. Speaker, the parliamentary inquiry I desire to propound is whether it would be a violation of any rule or precedent of the House if, while I shall be presiding over the Committee of the whole House on the state of the Union today, should that honor again be conferred upon me, that instead of using the gavels usually found on the Speaker's desk, I should use this shillelagh which I now hold in my hand? (Applause). In order that the Chair may be guided in his ruling, let me say that this instrument of persuasion (laughter) comes directly from the “ould sod.” It is the root of the blackthorn tree. We are more familiar with this wood in the form of canes, those thorny canes, those walking sticks used by our dandies on the street of Washington. The Speaker—Will the gentleman permit an inquiry from the Chair?" - Rep. O'Connor — Gladly, Mr. Speaker. The Speaker — The Chair would {ike to know whether or not this is ihe same identical shillelagh that fhe gentieman from New York kindly allowed the Chair to preside with one year ago today? ‘Rep. O’'Connor—Begorra! It is the self-same persuasive instrument which was caressed on that occasion by the Speaker’s distinguished

Q—Do American teleph panies pay royalty to the ment of France or to French telephone companies for the use of “French phones” in this country?

A—The term “French’ applied to hand-set telephones is a misnomer. The device originally was developed in the United States, but at the time was not considered mechanically efficient. Foreign telephone companies, particularly in France, began to use such sets and the appellation “French’l was gradually applied to them. Finally a type of hand-set was developed by American companies and it was put into service without payment of royalties.
