CHAPTER V Jim, partially dressed for the we- damp WBIG A sheet of stationery bore the crisp salutation- Dear Lenore- paper. laid week-end in Rosalyn? He'd have to make up his mind- He was taking Dolly to dance to- night and he ought to mall the let- ter to Lenore while he was 1n the watch-pocket of his trousers. Heads tossed the coin experimentally- Fe‘ allzlng as he caught. it, that it was him that afternoon in the drive. Hefd kept it for a. lucky piece. Heads he'd go and tails he wouldn't. He tossed the 00111 watched it descend to the table, spin, roll, waver, come to a. stop. In that split-second he knew that he didn't want to go back to Rosalyn. The decision of the coin was un- important. He took up the pen. ignoring the coin with a feeling of defiance. He'd make his own de- cision. The pen moved swiftly over the paper, making a scratching sound, which, presently, blended with the melody of a dance tune loudly and cheerfully whistled. Half an hour later Jim drove the MacPhersons coupe down the drive toward the road. It was nearly dark. In the deperiing dusk he saw a solitary figure seated in an atti- ture of despondency on the fence- rail beside the mail-box. Hey, wait a minute! Tommy detached himself from the fence- rail. Ha walked over to the coupe. You going to the village? he asked. Jim nodded. Will you ? ‘Ilommy Can I trust you? he‘ asked sol- anxious under a drooping lock of hair. Of course, Jim assured him. I mean it's pretty He scowled at the down his .. ‘ Roselyn for Lenore’; house-party p and he was finding it difficult to decline her invitation. He had promised. of course. ‘Ihat was the worst of it. l-Ie had promised soon after he came tn Meadowbrook Whbn the party was still in the un- determined future and he had used any means at his command to placate Lenore. Now that the time had arrived he found himself in a. perplexing situation. Pleasant, but —Perhaps he was afraid to go. Perhaps that was the truth of the matter. He might find the old life too easy and agree- able. He might not want to re- turn to Meadowbrook after the week-end. Why should"he? He wasn't get- ting anywhere. He couldn't con- ceive of a life-time of living with the MaicPhersoris and serving the Vaughns in the capacity of an ex- tra. man in and about the house. It was quixotic to stay, perhaps. He was o. romantic fool, though cer- tainly there was nothing romantic in using n. typewriter clumsily and pulling weeds and buying groceries. Perhaps if he ‘accepted Lemon's in- vitation, someone would bc there who'd put him on to a decent. job. Business conditions were improv- ing. The newspapers were opti- mistic. Perhaps- But he liked being at Meadow- brook. He gfanced out of the win- dow, over the young apple trees to the visible portion of the grounds at the rear of the house. The sun- set was fading into the clear still light of early evening. Jan's eyes lingered thoughtfully upon the tranquil scene. Presently two figures came into view, scat- tering liis thoughts. The first fig- ure, amazingly, was Susan, a dainty , almost unrecognizable Susan in a‘ pink dress artfully ruffled. slippers tied wit-h bows, an Allce-in-Won- doriand comb restraining her taf- l i bov continued.

You know ‘the girl that works in the drug-store? Dolly? Well. will you take her l. letter from me? Tommy drew from un- der his Jersey a somewhat mim- pied envelope. ,I was just to decide whether to put it in the mail-box or not, he continued. I should think a. fellow would have‘ a right to ask for his letters back. But gosh. I don't know what she'll trying do- Jim drew his eyebrows down over his twinkling eyes. What's the matter? he asked- Hsve you and Dolly quarrelcd? Tommy worried a loose bit of gravel with the too of his oxford. Well. Dad wouldn't let me use the Pierce after he got better I'd taken her out in it lots of time before and I guess she sort of got the im- pression that it belonged to me. I haven't had any money to take her out with for about three weeks. That's why I thought maybe I'd better get my letters back. But what could she do? asked, controlling his amusement with difficulty. She coulddo plenty. Tommy hinted darkly. she knows Dad's got jack. But Tommy— Jim protested. It happened to a fellow at school. Tommy went on his fa- ther had plenty of jack and the _, girl who worked in the drug-atmfe AMomingSmile TWO OF A KIND fy-colorcd hair. She walked toward the house along the drive with consciously mincing steps. her’ pointed chin lifted high, Behind her. at a respectful distance, fol- lowed Wilfred, the farmer's boy. Jim laughed. Little monkey! She'd lost. no time in acting upon his suggestions. The pink dress and the slippers tied with bows were probably the reason for the shop- ping trip to the city which she and Miss Parker had made yesterday. Susan was testing the effect of her altered appearance. and with ob- vious success, upon the only male person on th¢ estate approximat- ing her age. Jim Wlls amused and touched. Susan, too. he reflected had gotten under his skin.

Hi5 attention returned to the sheet of stationery on th; table. The clergyman was walking through the village, when he met one of his parishioners.- "l-fowls your cold. Donald?" he asked.

But all the same 1t deprives a husband and wife of a mutual interest that is a strong bond between them. For we all like to talk shop, and no married couple bore each other who can spend a. happy evening talking over the grocery trade or planning an erflartemient of the store. Many women mlglously read the sport column and the stock market report so that they may at least listen intelligently when their husbands talk of these things.
