CyAPTER LXXII BEGINNING ANEW The taxi reached the pier at last. A3 it crawled slowly through the long shed, making its way between other automobiles, and groups of people, Sally's heart thudded wildly. Was she in time? She glanced at her -wrist watch just noon. The Aquitanla was due to sail at noon! But ocean liners
were so often delayed surely the fates would be good to her and delay this one! A crane -was hoisting a bundle of trunks through the air, and even as Sally -watched it depositedRhem deft-

ines Kiumph turned to the gangplank the warning notes of a bugle floated to her as she stepped on it, and a uniformed official laid a hand on her arm.
"Are you sailing, miss?" he asked, and as sh mutely shook her head he went on. "Sorry, miss, but you can't go aboard. Tile gang plan's going up in a second now." "Oh, but I I " stammered Sally, wildly. "I must go on board, just for a momen. please!" She entreated in vain. She was still arguing with him when the gangplank was withdrawn, and all about her crowded those who were staying behind, waving to those -who -were sailing. Sally saw the ship through a mist of tears. The people leaning on the rails seemed miles away. The girls with their arms full of flowers, the
men who tried so hard to look uninterested, the fluttering handkerchiefs, all ran into one colorful mass before
her tear-dimmed eyes. She dabbed at
them furiously, trying hard to see if
Dick was among the laughing, waving throng, but though she stood there in the crowd until the great liner had made its slow, majestic way out of the flip and into the river, she could not seS him. She turned away -with downcast heart, her throat choked -with sobs. She felt akin to all the wretched ones of the earth. Patricia with her burden of sorrow, Claire Finch's angry mother, who would blame her for Claire's elopment, little Rose Hewitt, worrying over her brother in prison it seemed as if everyone of whom she thought was in trouble. She felt suddenly tired, too worn out to go on. She would not have believed that such distaste for living could overwhelm her. She walked slowly out to the street, not knowing just what to do next. "Come on Louise I'm starved; let's make a dash for Sherry's!" The careless voice of a girl who sat
in a car that had been halted near
Sally roused her to the realization of the fact that she had eaten nothing
since breakfast. She was hungry
would feel better when shed eaten something. But no Sherry's for her! ' She looked into her pocketbook, then turned toward a white fronted res
taurant nearby. Food should be cheap
there. And a little later, over the . beef stew and coffee which she found
surprisingly good, she worked out a
plan.
She would go to Dick's office and , get his address; surely he would have 'left one there, so that his mail could be forwarded. Then she would write him, telling him of the curious ways that he life had followed since they had been separated. And she would beg him to let her cut her year's vacation short, and take her place once more at his side. Then she would clean up the odds and ends that surrounded her. She would face the Finches and explain

And bitterest pill of all to 6wallow she would write to her mother-in-law, if she could obtain her address, and explain the situation. She wanted to clean her slate, to feel that she had done all that she could to straighten out her life. , Looking back, she could see where she had made many mistakes. Flirt
ing with Keith Gilbert had been one of the biggest ones, of course. ' She had made another when she had sat calmly back and done nothing, when she found that he bank account was
overdue. She would have insisted on
getting in touch with her husband then and after she had found out where she stood, it would have been simple to proceed. , Instead, she had slunk off to a corner, nursing her pride, believing that
he no longer wanted her. She could
see now that false pride has no place in the workaday world. If Dick wanted to be free, he would have told her. And she would not have gone etumbling on, fearing Keith Gilbert, entangling herself with the Finches, making a mess of things generally. She began to see the future as a whole, instead of as a mere succes sion of days. And she realized that the thing which seemed easiest to do was quite likely to be the hardest. "Perhaps I'm beginning to learn some of the things Dick wanted me to understand," she reflected, as she left the restaurant and started back to Patricia's.
that he was "literary." That few -pa-, pers, in even as Email a town as his, ' were as badly written as his was an idea that never entered his head. He continued to pad with adjectives and long words and, until now, had impressed Millie that this was fine writing. Now Millie happened to see the difference. She went back to her letterl " which I'll send. I expect youll

"Cora will spread that idea all over the town," Mrs. Parke observed with
gentle bitterness." She's nice but
you know how she does talk."
Not even Cora escaped! Patty
smiled a little to herself. Once she
would have felt badly at any sign of
disloyalty to a friend as good as Cora.
Now some of her mother's and Millie's little oddities merely amused her. Was
this breaking away from her family-
or was this disloyalty of a minor sort? She did not listen to the rest of
Millie's letter. It consisted of a lot of gossip, Including a paragraph of the rumored engagement of Basil and little Margaretta. Millie folded and laid
the paper on the table. "Well, I must say I wish I was back." she announced. "People knew me there there was something to do now and then." "But Millie think of the theatres ?.nd concerts, and the operas, and the museums and the parks " "Oh, you make me tired," Millie cut in rudely. "Who wants to walk around a museum all day looking at bones, or else silly pictures and we can't afford operas and such. New York's all right when you are rich, but not when you are poor, . I want to go home." Patty shrugged her shoulders a little. Why should not Millie work and earn more money? She never even hunted a position after her one attempt at selling. She never economized on the sodas and ice cream treats to buy a concert ticket she would not climb to the top of the
opera house to hear an opera, as Pat
ty did when she had the time. She picked up and dropped acquaintances,
but made no friends.

MLLIE'S LETTER Chapter 65. A few days after Christmas, Millie received "a long letter from Cora. Cora was the sort who wrote infrequently, but when she did she made
the little two-cent stamp carry a full
weight of correspondence. "Your pictures are wonderful," she said, pleasing Millie by her Flattery. "I've got the one you sent me in the parlor on the mantel, so all my friends can see it. Dodson don't take pictures Jike that! "Well, I hear you are going to get a job in the movies the paper had a
paragraph about it, which I'll send " "Oh, listen to this!" and Millie dropped her letter to hunt for the newspaper clipping in the envelope. It read: "One of the distinguished ex-residents of Wissakeagan, Mrs. Humphrey Buchannan, it is rumored, is working in the cinema studios of New York, to which metropolis she recently trav
eled. Mrs. Buchanan, with mother and
sister, are now residents of New York. Our local theatre is making inquiries
as to what film3 Mrs. Buchanan is playing in. Shortly we may expect to see her on the celluloid, if not in the flesh." Silence while Millie 'remembered the expensive photographs spread so
lavishly around the motion picture studios, and the absolute lack of re-
pponse. Then Patty giggled at the bombastic wording of the paragraph, and Mrs. Parke and Millie joined in. "How funny our paper seems, Millie commented. It was the one touch of sophistication she ever acquired during her life in New York. The editor of Wissakeagan's little journal had been a printer's devil, and by means of sheer stubbornness and stupidity often an asset he had clung to an early idea

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a young
girl of seventeen. I am going to mar-, ry a man five years my senior. His folks don't seem to approve of me. j
I love this boy dearly, but sometimes he seems to think more of another girl. Still he says he does not love her as much as he does me. Do you think it would be all right for me to marry him when his folks do not approve of me? Do you think he acts right about the ot'fjr girl? BLUB EYES. You are very young and I would not advise you to marry the young man.

not be interested in the other girl.
The attitude of his parents, my dear, would probably make you bitterly unhappy. You are not old enough to hold your own against them. My advice is to wait at least a year before you think definitely of marriage. If your fiance goes with other girls, you should certainly have the privilege of going with other young men.
