CHAPTER XIX Whitney said : "Let's walk ... it isn't far and it's so beautiful . . . Tod grinned at her. "But you can't possibly walk in that dress and it is snowing very hard . - " "This coat is very warm and the dress isn't important. That you and I should walk home on New -Year's morning in a snowstorm is, dar ling." ' -' He said: "Have it your own way, nut. And arm in arm they walked down Park Avenue. A tall young man in evening clothes and a girl in a copper-red dress beneath a baby lamb coat-. They walked two blocks in silence, their feet making prac tically no sound on the thick, new fallen snow. Then .Whitney said: "This is one reason why it was so Important that you come to New York, Tod . - . no one else in the world wculd have understood why I bad to leave Jay's very nice party and go walking in a snowstorm . . ." "I'm not at all sure I do." i "Of course, you don't . but neither do you argue with me of try to make me take a cab." Back in Helena's apartment, Tod knelt and replenished the fire. Un fastening Whitney's evening boots, be saw that the edges of the copper red dress were soaked with snow. "Ruined" , be decided ruefully. "You'd better go and change ft be fore you catch cold." Her feet were narrow and shining in gold sandals. She stretched them toward the fire. Smiled at him, the corners of her mouth sweet with fatigue. "I will presently. But let me sit here for just a minute, quietly, with "you." . i : . Firelight flowed over her gently . . over her lovely, narrow cheek bones, over the smoothness of her upper arms, over the copper-red dress where it fell away from her crossed knees. Her hair was glis tening with moisture where the snow bad melted on it . . . in the fire light, the part looked very white and clean I Do things with your hands, Tod, so that you will not be betrayed into touching her. Brush up the hearth. Light a cigarette. Talk about some thing. Anything. Just so long as you never say the things you most want to say. The things that crowd to your lips when you are alone with her -Invent casual, impersonal phrases that mean less than noth ing. Never be quite yourself with her any; more. Nor long silent . . . Whitney said: "Rotten of me to drag you away from an the fun, darling rang. And the telephone Tod answered it. Whitney sat very still, her hands clenched white- ly in her lap, until be said, his voice pleasant: "Boston calling you, Whit. IT! wait In ths kitchen." She walked across the room and the door dosed behind Tod just as she picked tip the instrument and said: "Hello . . ." her voice a soft choke In her throat. She'had known tt would be Scot She had not known that the sound of his voice would force her to cling with her free hand to the back of a ehair. That It would send all the blood in her body racing madly to her fceart.- The wires were very dear. He was several hundred miles away but the sweet hardness of his arms was around her. And she had needed them so . ... "I had to call you, Whit . . . talk with you ..." "Yes, Scott," . "Fve been wanting to for weeks, months, really ... ever since I saw you that day last June."

By ALLENE CORLISS' WANT "I know. I've been thinking about you, too . . j , "Listen, Whit, I've got to see you. Can't you come to Boston?" ; "No. darling." ; f "Then I'll .come to'New York. It will be better that way. Ill come Wednesday ... that's day after tomorrow ... "What's the matter, Whit? Why don't you . say something ? Don't you want me to come, darling ?" "I don't know, Scptt . . ." The room whirling suddenly before her eyes. It has been so long. A year is so long. He will ; come to New York. Wednesday. That is day after tomorrow. .We - will be together again. After al! these months. Only we won't be. Any more than we were that last time. Never together again. Not truly . . . "I don't know, darling . . ." Her voice was a softly unfurled ribbon of sound being carried over the wires to Boston. "111 have to think about it I can't decide like this. Ill write you whether to come or not " ' 1 ' - She hung up and stood clinging to the chair and Tod came back into the room. He said: "Did you know he was going to call ? ; Is that why we came back here ? She shook her head. "No, I didn't know. I had no idea." Then she said: "He wants to come to New York, Tod." 1 Tod laughed shortly. "Of course, he wants to come to New York. What of it?" , 1 ' She stared at him, her eyes frown ing. "That's what I have to decide." "And do you find it so hard?" A strange Tod this ... grim lipped and level-eyed. Something of steel in his glance -where before there had never been anything but mildly approving approbation. Something scornful and mocking . . . She flung her head back. A pulse beat wildly in her throat. Be honest with him. You've never been any thing else. You never can be. "I want him to come, Tod ..." "Of course, you do. But you're not going to let-him." i That pulse beating faster. Anger pressing bard against her eyelids. Her voice cool and -quite as unflinch ing as his. "I'm not sure about that. I rather think, darling, that I am." He was beside her now. His hands were grasping her wrists. Hurting her unbearably. But his voice was calm. "And I say that you are not." "Tod ... you're hurting my wrists. And why shouldn't he come? I cleared out a year ago and I've played absolutely fair ever since . . ." Her self-control was snapping. She hated her voice for, breaking like that. I i. "Sure. You've played fair txntO the first chance you've had to play anything else arrives." , j . ' He's wrong about that. But he doesn't know about June. She said, her voice quivering: "That's all you know about it. Scott was in New York In June." There was a sort of bitter pleasure in seeing what that did to his face. His mouth twisted grimly. "So that's it? So you've been seeing him . . ." ';.'::- "Only that once. I'm simply try ing to tell you that I had a chance that day not to play fair : and I didn't take it." M ,-, ., "then dont take it now, WAit. Dont be a fool and spoil something pretty fine and decent by slopping over now." j Her cheeks were white. She was hating him. Her lips shook and she tried to wrench her wrists away but he held them tightly. Fine scorn blazed ia her eyes. She said: "Cave-man stuff. It doesn't become you. Ted, Tea told rue months age . - - ! Wheat Reacts To Stock Rise Sudden Market Upturn Is Stimulug at Qiicago, one Cent Gained . CHICAGO. Sept. 7.-ff)-Largei. 1- in ; response to sudden upturns of the New York stock' market. Chicago wheat prices late today substituted about a cent gain for earlier equal losses. Chicago traders Ignored the circumstance that the jumps t securities were attributed to re- norts the Sudeten Germans bad made a tentatire acceptance of proposals for a basis of negotia tions ! with Czechoslovakia, ana th-t peace chances . appeared bet ter. Not until after grain deal ings were ended for the day was it known the Sudeten German party had , again broken off ne gotiations. . Winjiinesr Rise Is Help A notable late .upward trend of the Winnipeg wheat market serred as an additional stlmu lus here. Export purchases of Canadian wheat were estimated as totalling - 850.000 bushels, the first major featTlng from North America that European countries have done in some time. ' e At the close, . Chicago wheat futures were above yes terday's finish, Sept. 1-61 Dec. 62- -, 1938 Hop Crop's -Estimate Pending - With later estimates dribbling into the office of the hop .market control board here the estimate of the 1938 crop will not be ready for several days, it was announ cAd ' Wednesday.

The original estimate made by the estimators under the. agreement was about 40,000,000 pounds but this was considered too high. were seriously injured last Wed' nesday night in an automobile accident near Portland. A friend of the Becks who was with them was killed and others involved in the accident are still unconscious as well as the Becks and their small son. Mrs. Beck is in a crit ical condition. i that I was all grown up. Well, I am. And quite capable of making de cisions. Without any help from you." . "I dont think so. Besides, you promised Olivia ..." "I never promised her to stop lov ing Scott . . ." "You promised to stay out of her life and his ... and you are damn well going to do It." "Not unless I want to. Tod. No one, not even you, noble as you have suddenly become, can make me." "No? Wdl, we'll see about that. Scott isn't coming to New York, Whitney. Not this week. Nor ever. Not "if I have to go to Boston and thrash hdl out of him ... yes, and out of you, too . . ." Suddenly, Whitney was crying uncontrollably. Dry, hard sobs that shook her body convulsively.. "I hate you ... you have no right to interfere like this. Why can't you leave me alone? Nothing can pos sible be any worse than it is . . ." "That," said Tod, and now his voice was unexpectedly tired and drained of all anger, "is where you are wrong. Everything can be about a thousand times worse. And you know it, darling. Only at the mo ment you aren't willing to admit it." - She stared at him, her eyes blind ed with tears, her breath coming in ! little tearing gasps. She said: "Tod, i darling, things are such a mess . . ." j He picked her up then and car- I ried her back to the fire. Sat with 1 her held lightly in his arms, her head pressed against his shoulder. She continued to cry gently, without j anger, like a tired child. Finally her ! sobs spent themselves and she was ! still. But she stayed in his arms, finding comfort there, a vitally nee- j essary reassurance. Hold her lightly. Dont frighten J her. Don't let her guess what this j means to you. Don't ever let her guess. But yeur arms will remem ber this night ... your lips will re- j member that they kissed the top of her head . . . and you will never for-; get that for a little while she dung to you.. And needed you. She was terribly angry with you. But now; she isn't. . Now you are just Tod j again. Whom she has known ail her life and likes better than anyone else. Whom she is completely at i ease with . . . see, she can even lie in ' your arms and forget that you ex ist. That should prove" something . ,. . it does prove something. It proves what you have always known . I . that you haven't a chance with her and never will have. So long as you both live. Presently he said: "If I go now and let you go to bed, do you think you can go to sleep?" "Yes, of course ..." . He put her out of his arms. Watched her lift her hands and do things to her hair. Her face was still white and tearstained but color flowed back into her lips. Her eyes smiled at him. "You've been sweet, Tod. Try to forgive me for behaving so badly ... and for spoiling your evening so completely." 1 Just that, Nothing more. She didnlt say: "I'm sorry. Tod. You're right about Scott. He mustn't come to New York . . ." But she didn't have to say It He knew. He knew, that she wouldn't let him come. Not this week nor any other week. It was a victory of sorts. But there was no comfort in it, Only a sort of bitter-sweet relief . He went out into a world that lay newborn and virginal, beneath a dark winter's sky. Presently dawn would break, cold and pale in the east, and another day would begin. It was already another year . . - (To be continued) CsfnJgM, 11 1 1, kg Kiss rasasraa Sjarflatt ana, - i i . . . ... , . i . - - - i - - - Quotations ! .
