CHAPTER VII MEMORIES AND .COLD OATMEAL Sally turned away quickly; at that moment she did not want to look Into Gilbert's eyes. "Come over here and tell me how you're going to begin your vacation," urged Nathalie Ailing, making room

for her on a low divan in tne corner. "Will you start where you stopped when you got married? Lose your memory when you honeymoon began?" "She never could lose her memory of our honeymoon," Dick cut in, laughing. "It was the most harrowing experience we've- ever had together." "Oh, do tell me about it." begged Nathalie. "I'll never forget mine, I know. I give you my word, when I

He bent low over her hand and kissed it. alancing up at Dick an instant later turned and looked out of the great window at the city that lay below. She could see the bridges over the river, marked by slender lines of light, and could hear the jumbled mass of the city's sounds that came as a steady, almost threatening roar to where she stood. She had always shivered a little when she stopped to listen to it, and had been glad that she had Dick

represented.

But tonight she smiled, and crossing

that was New York. She would face it alone now, she told herself, and if Dick Brabant did not like the way she

used the freedom he had forced upon her, he could pay the price of her

recklessness.

A few moments later, when she and Dick were bidding the others good night, she heard Patricia say to Keith Gilbert. "What are you doing tomorrow

tell me about you and Sally." Dick smiled; Everyone who knew the Allings counted on Nathalie's being reminded of her own experiences

by whatever everyone else said, and-

on her insisting on telling of her own

affairs before they could proceed. "Some Friends of ours had lent us their country place," he began, his eyes avoiding Sally's. "And we started for it in my roadster at 1 o'clock in the morning. At two it began t rain hard. We were just well out of town then why on earth we hadn't sense enough to turn back I don't know. Neither of us was doing much plain thinking, I suppose. We had a puncture, of course, a little after that and then we lost the road. We went through one town three separate times, at half-hour intervals. And when we finally found the house, we discovered that the care-taker had decided that we weren't coming and had gone to bed. It tooR us half an hour to wake him." The others shouted with amusement, but Sally found it hard to summon a

smile. For she and Dick had laughed i turned away, then paused to hold out

HAPPY ENDING Mrs. Talbot wondered whether Jordan would object to dancing as he had stormed and denounced when they tried it that night three years ago. That night Dick had carried the phonograph to his place, where it had been ever since. That night Amy was almost 18 she was within a week or so of 21 now. That night she had defied her father, hated him for forbidding her to dance. Now she smiled at him saucily and threatened to do the text fox trot with him. Mrs. Talbot watched her three child

ren, and the three who were almost as beloved as they. Jane still clung to her mannish tweed suits and tailored

waists. She was not pretty, never

would be. But she was fine looking and her eyes were more than merely beautiful. She fairly surrounded Donald with her love and her care, her con

stant attention of which he was always plesantly self-conscious, and which he would be miserable without. And Luther had found himself. Clarie was right she had taught him now to . relax, to waste time, to be frivolous, to be happy. Claire might

low yet something more than that had come with the baby. "I'm going back on the tage next season, she said. "The baby will be nearly a year then, and I can get a competent nurse. I'll have, really lots of time to give it." She showed magazine pictures of herself and the child "Claire Talbot, well known theatrical star who scored such a success as the Snowball Girl, who has temporarily retired' this was part of an article on the home life of great actresses. Luther laughed at his son's early publicity notices. "I'm not an ideal mother, I'm too impatient," Claire said. "I can hire mechanical attention in a nurse, but

I'll never neglect my child." As for Amy she was dissatisfied with her progress, yet she was making

great headway. She had finally se-

instantly Jordan would be unspeakably shocked. But her feet somehow found

themselves in time .with the rythm though she danced stiffly and awkwardly. ' "Mother's a good sport, she'll try anything" Luther said. Mrs. Talbot would have jumped over cliffs to hear that, to deserve the praise, the admiration, best of all. the comradship, that the words imnlied. After all, by throwing aside her old prejudices, by opening her heart and her mind, she had first earned the confidence of her children, she had entered into their problems,. 6he had de-

It had taken .Jane six months to do this, for Dick was ''knocking about" the South Americanea coast towns, picking up odd jobsand consoling himself for his poverty by his pleasure in learning the language. They were all happy surely they would go on being happy! Mrs. Talbot stood in the doorway watching them dance, listening absently to Mrs.
