KIIKSKIirillKE Chapter 36 Derek Awakes ' Jan heard the tires of a car skid on gravel ajid heard Derek's voice. His father stood and offered her his arm with grave eourtoay and led her inside. "I wish," be told her when the light permitted hun to look into her young, sad face, "that son of mine would have enough aeuse to marry a girl like you." She thought, "I don't care about his sense or ills cents, If " Oh, she was being foolish agajn, Derek llkod her well enough, no doubt,! he was even very graUiful to her. she surmised. Hut love? No. He had his music to love, and Lenore. Lenore came Into the room with him. her long crimson nails bright against the black cloth or his eve ning coat. he wore a mink cupe, huge white orchids pinned to the shoulder, over a sheath of crimson satin the exact color of her nail polish. Her flower-like face was upturned rapturously to Derek's. 'Shell get him," Jan thought sickly. "She bad him once and she'll havo him again! Hose was right when she said 'She has what it takes'." Which premise was borne out aa the evening progressed. For Derek no Booner finished greeting his guests, rather I.enore'a, than she pleaded he play for them. "One of your own beautiful com positions, darling." Derek declined, brusquely. Jan, brought close to him by his father, observed the famlllur, violent look on Ills face. His meeting with his mother could not - have been happy, she thought pityingly. But brightened a little when he took Jan's bands and said: "I'm orry 1 couldn't pick you up." Lenero uppeured startled. " by. Ricky," he reproached, "why didn t ypu tell me we were sup posed to call for Miss Merrlner? U'e could huve taken her to the boat with us." Bhe turned a bril liant smile on Jan. "Tho Countess Is so charming! I'm giving a tea for her day after tomorrow and lyou must come, my dear, she said. Derek's father grunted audibly. "How Is your mother, Derek?" be asked. "Looking about twenty.flve." Derek said. "Tho Count Is with her. I see you've met Jan." "I have. And I like her," said the elder Knowles on a note of challenge to Lenore. "I want to meet that brother of hers when he's convalescent." "Yes." Jan put In hurriedly. "I must leuve here very early, Derek. I promised Lance I'd bo at Uio hospital before eight In the morning." "I'll cull you around noon.' Derek said, genuine sympathy In bin deep voice. "Is there anything 1 can do for him or for you" Just then a dark-haired girl linked her arm through Lenore's and peered In astonishment at Jan. "I've seen you before," she asserted. "Thl suinmer-ls An- (geles I have It! You wero sketch .615 jn). portraits In a quaint Mexican 583 street! Fifty cents for u plrturo In "-' ! fifleen mlutites, wusn't it?

She said swlflly. sweetly, to Jan: "Then perhaps you would bring along your crayons, peuclls, or whatever it is you use and sketch .some portruita at my tea for the Countess. 111 say you well, or course." Derek frowned, but Jan. her lips lightening, said: "Thank you. I shall he glad Iu help entertain your guests." "In costume, of course" Lenore prodded. "As you wish." The awkward moment lasted until Lenore bore Dei'ek away to the next room. He looked back over his shout Her at .lun ami made a ingiuiui I'll CP, "She usually ruIh hor wny," HUid (iregory KiiowIph. lie pattort Jhii'h shoulder. "Never mind her. my dear. Would you favor a wIIHiik but somewhat rusty old man with it dunce?" .The liallroom. she found, whs downstairs, a long hare room with polished flour, a tonall or rhestra at mm end. u antttering of chairs at the slues. 'ir,' said (irecory Knowles as they waltzed, "I were twenty years younger I'd court you my self, Mib.s Merrincr:" Upstairs Lenore tugged Derek out on the vera n da. determined to utilize the obliging moon, the semi-darkness, the heavy perfume of flowers from the garden be yond, to bring about a proposal of marriage. Her silvery voice ca ressed hint, breaking a tittle as ahe murmured. "Ith-ky. I've been such a Tool. U'e all were. I mean about your 'music. You arc u gen ius, n great composer and we were so unfortunately stupid about it. And Ronnie well. I told you he was just a romantic interlude. You must. understand, Hicky. Theso last months I lean Hid how much you meau to me. I love you so. my dear." Her voice dropped to the proper emotional degree and she lifted her fragile, pointed face lo his. Itegarding her. his black eyes were cold, inscrutable, yv a smile turned up the corners of his mouth. "Meeting you again, bing with you. is (lie best thing that ever happened to inc." he repeat ed what bed said last night to Jan. Tuen I am - forgiven?" she pouted. "You are blessed!" w answered her. "1 went through my own prl iat emotional bell after I found you out. I'd lost my feeling, my touch, for music: I'd lost my faith in you and, I thought then, faith in everyone and everything else. I even tried to destroy myself, Jan pulled me out of the water and showed uie what an ignorant, egotistical fool I'd been. She put me liaek on my mental as well as physical feet. If It hadn't been for her my Concerto would never have been written nor played. But, Ignore. I wasn't really my own mun again until I saw you at tho beach and realized what you are and that you probably can't help it. There was nothing left of my emotion, either love or hate, for you. You can't touch me again, Lonore, ever." 'Famous Last Word' Her long nails curved in ugulnst her palms. "I suppose It's that stupid, childish artist, iilcky. She's so obviously in love with you." "She 1b not!" he scoffed, then chuckled. "You should have seen I her. such a little bit of a thing." driving me to work, clubbing me Into scraping carrots and washing dishes, threatening me with starvation if I didn't bring home board money, giving me hull Co lumbia for getting into a fight and telling me I was shiftless and no account! She made a man of me in spite of myself. Hut love me? What utter nonsense, Lennie. We're good friends, that's all." "Famous last words,!' Lenore thought, end said, "You loved me terribly, darling, and I hurt you so. I don't blame you for not trusting me. I'll make it up to you, I promise." She slipped hor slim white arm over his shoulders, locked her hands behind his neck and pressed her lips to his moutb. He suffered her u moment he fore roughly disengaging her clasp. He heard a door Blum; heard heavy footsteps. "Well," demanded his father, tossing his cigar Into the gulden, shoving his hands int his coat pockets, "are you going to marry Lenore?" "No!" Derek declared violently. "I'm not. Nor anybody else " I Lenore gasped. "I don't know what's wrong with him, she com plained, dubbing nt her eyes with a wisp of lace. "Perhaps bis success- has unbalanced him." "I hope so." said On-gory Knowles. "Give the Countess my best regards when you see hor." Lenore glared at both men, turned with stiff dignity into the house, leaving them alone. "Where is, Jan?" Derek ashed. suddly wanting to be with her, his heart atlll thudding strangely from the shock ol Lenore's asser tion that Jan loved htm. even though ho didn't for a moment believe it. "Jenkins is driving her home. She came with me just now to lell you goodnight, hut ovldently decided not lo Intrude on the charming scene you presented with Ignore in this prop mooii-IlL-ht! Derek, you're a fool!" lie .'."". ., ... ,; ,,, ,.,.,i Tk rcsleti his long, In.y leiiL'th on Uie wide railing, not feeling the chill breeze on his face, not hearing the noise from within the house. So Jan thought he and Ignore could Inoro isis sihlv be right about Jan? No. Yes. Perhaps. Damn It all, he didn't want .Inn laboring under false do- iluslons! And why dldn t he; His eyes closed.

The question is so often asked und It is nut easy to suffer without questioning. Some times we bring suffering on ourselves, but this docs not explain uH suffering, because the innocent suffer aa well as the guilty. The fact seems to be that the guilty are responsible for. the suffering or the innocent. A wicked husband and father brings suffering upon his inno cent wife and children. They do not suffer because they have sinned. They suffer becuusc he has sinned. Thair suffering Is due to sin. We must ut times toe silent about some kinds of suffering. No explanation sat isfies. Hut In general it is plain that most Buffering i because of sin. Sin has disordered the whole world, and the disorder of the world lies back of the world's pain. To some extent we are all guilty, because "we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God," but we often suffer far beyond the measure of our sin. Jesus suf fered, though He was wholly free from sin. He sul'lered for our sins, and carried them to the cross forma. With His help we may face our suffering bravely, and count II all joy, for if we suffer with Him. wo shall share His glory. Amen.
