"Let me by!" she cried sharply. .When. a man at the en trance of the dance floor asked for .her ticket, she retorted, "I'm not staying. I'm looking for my hus band." Bad she ever danced in this hide ous place? She saw the same crowd, the same cheap dresses. Her eyes 'roamed over the room. A boy she had known in high school touched her arm.

The manager, running to stop them, was cut by a hurled bottle that splintered against his shoulder. -.. ; ;- A waiter called the police. Arriv ing in the midst of the brawling, they seized the worst offenders. And the waiter who had called pointed to Rosalind. "She started it!" An officer said, "Come along, sis ter. You're going, too." "You can't take me! I'm Mrs. Van Howard He grinned. "Oh, can't It I dont ear wno yon are. yon started a riot. You're going for a ride, too. Better come Quietly. She put her hands to her face and sobbed. But it was too late. Too late. Van, his coat torn, his month weeaing, looked at her with hate.

She had looked throurh tha mail when she saw the sleek black ear stop and the next moment saw Gor don waJJc to her throasrh the rain- He stood very still and a hundred questions rushed through her mind. Had he come back for her? And her first impulse was to go inside and re- ruse to see nun because she knew that with his hand npon her, his eyes looklnsr into hers, and his deen voice tender, she t would have no strength bat to go with him. Every day and every night she had fought against loving1 him. She had fought against it as il it were a disease a cure for which she alone most find. "Hello. Gordon" - He pulled off his hat and looked down on her, almost forgetting' for a moment why he had come. : Then, irowmns, ne asked, "Dont yon read & moranz er, Conataacs.t Tha morninc na.nr? . "Wliv. no. We don't have it delivered. Why?" She didn't know ! He unoVe rent. ly, "I'd like to see your parents. 'm afraid I'm not a bearer of very good tidings." Leading the way inside, she went upstairs to call her mother. As nsual in the summer after schnnl dosed, her father had taken a tem porary position. Mother and daughter came info the living room together. Gordon's dark eyes shifted from one to the other, from the mother in her clean housedress to the vivid Constance in a bine smock. Then he said. "I've shocking news for you, Mrs. Darby," and saw some thing terrible happen to her face when he told her of the scene last night in the Red Slipper, that Rosa lind and Van had spent the night in jail, and that Nina Howard, ill from ine snocK ana numuiation, bad sent him. Only in time of death in the fam ily had Constance ever seen her mother look like this. Between anna all that Ruth could say was, "She spoiled her chance! She spoiled her chance!" "There's a hearing befnra tha magistrate this morning," he said. unr a .a ... -wonio you use to come with me, Constance? It'a rotten that have to be dragged into something as soraia as cms.

Drear- uy we rain oeat against the win dows . . . Rosalind's green dress', fresh and new and lovely the night before, was crushed and wrinkled. Her dark curls were flat and dinhMlwl her face was pale and shiny from the tears that had dried on it She looked much more than one day older as she stood beside Van, who wo not iook at ner, and beard the magistrate direct his talk chiefly to her and shame her for her temper and jealousy. But -she seemed scarcely to hear what he was say ing. , . . Van had not looked at her I And last night he had looked at her with loathing! And all night she had cried and prayed that he would forgive her... Gordon paid their fines and the four came out in the rain together. When they came to the ear, Con. stance said, "III sit in the back with Rosalind." v Looking first at Gordon and then at Constance, Van said, "I dont want any advice from either of you. I made no mv mind last nieht lind is going back to Vine Street i n inrougni- ' Rosalind cried, "No, no, pfea Van ..." ;..--;v 4 He looked at Constance. "A lot of good it did me to settle down and work hard! I Stormed drtne-i mrA Iranibling and playing around and X was pretty pleased with myself. I am my Desti l eu your mother that My mother was good to Rosalind. She had an unlimited allowance. She had everything she wanted.

T'w been in a lot of scrapes but I've never been in jail before. And my wiie, my wtfe, put me in jail ..." Rosalind whimnered. "Please. please ..." "You're upset" Gordon said. "You don't know what you're say ing." "Sure I'm upset Who wouldn't be? But that's all I've got to say. I'm through and it'a final. And I don't want any advice or any plead ing. Take her back to Vine Street IU get home some other way. Ill have a maid pack her things and send them to her."' For the first time he looked at Rosalind. "And I loved you! I thought you were something special!" Constance, sick with shame, held Rosalind all the way home. ' Gordon said, "111 have a talk with Nina and Van tonight and see what I can do. Rosalind is still his wife." Rosalind, her head .against her sister's shoulder, did not speak. There was no fight left in her. All she could think of waa Van walking away ... Ruth was waiting on the porch. Seeing Rosalind without Van, she knew she had come home to stay. In the hall she kissed her and smiled a twisted smile and said, "It's all right dear. You're home." All day Rosalind stayed in the lit tle bedroom that had Once been hers. Downstairs Constance and her mother heard her walk back and forth. Before dinner the footsteps ceased and Constance went upstairs. Wearing . Constance's old blue satin negligee, Rosalind was sitting on the window ledge, staring out the window.

Her eyes implored Con tance to tell her that they would. "I'M a fine one to ask anything of you the way I've treated you sines Van and I were married. You were right It went to my head.
