Scott Prentice, Jyoung Boston lawyer, has grown up expecting to marry Whitney Prentice, his dis tant cousin, Todhunter Prentice Jarvis, Scott's second cousin, has left college to take a newspaper job also, in Boston. Tod adores both Scott and Whitney and can not understand why, with the lat ter even now on a transatlantic liner on .her way home, his cousin can pay such ardent court to the visiting Olivia Paul. Whitney bad not wanted to be formally engaged to Scott until her return from Eu rope, yet she had loved him only since she had been fifteen. .Scott, obviously forgetful of this, elopes with Olivia. Four days later, aboard ship, Whitney tells wealthy - young Jay Nowell of her romance. CHAPTER ry . - ' Jay had liked Whitney so much - that he had followed her to England where she was to meet Mrs. Endi cott Dane, a friend of Aunt Hester's, with whom she was to return to Bos ton. Of course, neither she nor Aunt Hester had had any way of knowing . that Mrs. Dane would be confined to her stateroom during the entire trip with mal de mer. That had ben s break for Jay NowelL Be cause he had come along too. Not from any desire to visit Boston, " which he bad honored with his pres ence twice and then briefly to attend two football games, but because it was unthinkable that he should say good-by to Whitney in London having- just discovered her; so to speak, - in Paris. 'l-rv" She considered him now gravely. "No,?, she decided quite honestly. "Scott isn't really more handsome than you. You are very handsome, Jay. But of course you know that. .-Scott is handsome, too. But in quite different way. He's blond . . . ex traordinarily so. And his shoulders .are wider . .V T ; "And," she might have added, . This eyes are Jess brooding and . : much happier and his smile is some thing to live for . . . and when he makes love to you you know why Jrou were born and that life is ovely ." She contented herself with say ing: "He is the gayest person I have .. ever known." -. -. f Well," Admitted Jay Nowell rea- sonably, "no one could call me gay, I "suppose. ' Still I ' have other at- ..- tributes."

Yeu should get great kick out of that. If my mother." he concluded, grinning casually, "ever succeeds in running through Tom Thayer's money, I may . have a chance to fulfill my destiny . : yet." -";-..rr-: J. -Am a dancer ! . ."or a flyerl" " Jay shrugged "Who knows?

None of us have ever wan dered far from Boston. Helena got to New" York.: And eventually to Paris. That gave the family , an awful wrench. But her father left her ten thousand dollars in Liberty bonds, so no one could do anything about it." "She really is a cousin then?" "Yes, of course. I've always adored her. She's ten years older than I am and much cleverer, naturally. ' Her magazine sends her to Paris fer two months every year. The rest of the time she has an apartment in New York and does much as she likes." "While you?"; " ! X Whitney grinned. "I live on Bea con Hill with my great-aunt Hester Prentice. But it's not as bad as it sounds. I get around a lot.

But who is Tod?" ;i Whitney laughed. It wasi ery phsasant sound. And -suddenly Jay thought that a word she had used to deieribe Scott Prentice described her, too. She was the gayest person "he had ever known. Not in any noisy, hot-cha way.: But quietly, as if gaiety were an integral part of her personality. She was gay and proud and very sure of herself. That came, he supposed, from being" properly brought, up. with a permanent, defi nite background. If tragedy had touched her as a child, it had cer tainly never been allowed to en croach upon the rest of her life. She said: "Why, Tod is another ? - - N ; f . . - ' f i - - - ' M . , .7 . r 'V " - The women's division opens Wednesday afternoon at 2 p. m. with Klamath Falls meeting Sil verton, followed by.

Tod and Scott and I. We've grown np together." ; -"But . you're going to -fmarry -t Scott." It was a statement not a question. Pronounced softly. With no inflection. Jay was like that. At twenty-seven his lean, dark face was immobile. His lips . seldom smiled. His dark gray eyes re mained steady and inscrutable be- . neath narrow. lids. His voice never betrayed any emotion. A weary ' tolerance of things. A stoic accept- -ance of the fact that there was nothing new . . . or very important , . . under the sun. You saw him. suddenly., as a small boy ; being handed over from one nursemaid to another.' As . a young boy being -eased through a series of expensive .-. schools. As a young man going J wearily from one pleasure resort to anotner ... ..J - . ; And you were sorry fer him. And': r i , . . - , - wished that things had been differ ent for. him.
