Synopsis of Preceding Chaptcru

Amy Talbot has been overwork- ‘ed for so many years that she has gotten completely of touch with life and new ideas. She finds this out when her son Luther re- ‘turns to the farm with his newly

‘married wife Claire. and when IJane. her daughter, comes h lme ‘from college. She cannot under- lstand their new Ideas. and finds

them making Amy. the youngest. ldiscontented. Claire and Luther gquarrel; Clairs goes back to the fcity. taking Amy with her. Even- ‘tually and Luther go away.

Mrs. Talbot is so worried about her girls that she braves her husband's anger and goes to them 'ii.l the city. Amy is studying for ‘grand opera, and will not look at Ithe always-faithful Dick; Jane is lin love with a doctor too poor to ‘marry her. Everything in the city ‘shocks and terrifles the mother- ,Luther and Claire are separated; lClaire wants a divorce. Amy's iprettiness attracts scores of admir- ers—she threatens to marry a .rich man she does not love. Jane is on the point of going away with ‘the doctor, who does not want to ‘marry her. There is no sympathy §betweeh the strict and narrow ,ideas of the mother and the broad. 'but what she calls "loose" ideas of {the children. Then the doctor finds a post in ia South American mining camp. and can afford to marry. rle and June clope and go to South America. Luther has a note from Claire. Amy's engagement to Adanl

"I used to go across the street from the opera house and buy a 25 cent lunch when we had long rehearsals. I wouldn't dare take my fur coat into that cheap little place any more. I'd be so stared at. So I have to go up to a little tea room where lunch costs 75 cents. Luther laughs and says that is the price of up-keep of a fur coat.

"Adam wants to be married soon ——of course I couldn't leave the company this season. I don't be- lieve he'll let me go into it another year—"

Amy found writing clarified her thoughts. There she had written it! Adam wouldn't let her do this-oi‘ that-or the other thing. Adam clearly was to be her master.

And what had ‘- ppened to Claire‘! She who once advocated the money as a way to happiness, she who condoned the intrigues and coquetry of the women they knew. she who left Luther because he refused to allow her to see Jim Clarke!

Then she went to Claire, who

was looking a little pale and dis-

contented.

She told her the ‘whole story.

Amy had a puritanical conscience.

“I'm not playing fair." she ended.

"It doesn't matter whether Adam

wants to play fast and loose with

any woman that will let him. He's

giving me a splendid home and

money and all sorts oi‘ things like that I'm not giving him anything. At least I ought to be a good sport about it. I think I'll telI him about Dick."

“You're an awful little fool. Amy." Claire replied crossly. "Adam is in love with you and

you're worrying because you can't give him real love also. You can't give him what you haven't got. As for playing square and all that sort of thing-If you think you can be satisfied with having your pocket- hook stuffed full of bills all thc limo and furs and motor cars. you'll find yourself mistaken. Money's all right. you can't be happy without it. But It won't make you happy either. You'll grow just like all those rich women who have flirta- tion llnd whom you dlsaprove of. Wait and see!"
