Too oftpn e had walked 'n'laici, luruuan IUUL couraging. "It'a not full of girls like you!" j Suddenly he put his arm about her they were in a deserted section of the park and drew ber to him. He kissed ber, kissed ber again and again. "When I think of you working so bard, and that brother of yours not helping ' Steve's voice was trem bling. "Lord, Mln, I've been making money! Let me stand behind you if you need me. It must be tougb go ing. Min, lots of times. Most of the time!" Mona thought of the rent, the In surance, her father's small fee at the hospital, the quarters Bud borrowed and the bills banded every Saturday to Ma who stretched them somehow to last through the week. She thought of days when she had gone without lunch, pretending she bad gained two pounds tho week before and was fast ing to keep slim. Then she thounht of the ermine cloak she was wearing. She thought of what Mrs. Casey would say to Mrs. Callahan if she caught sight of it. And she thought of bteve s kisses. She could not admit even to her self that she had wanted IStevo to kiss her. No, she had merely endured those caresses. Steve's sincerity was unmistnkable. It would have boen cheap to take offense. He was her childhood friend and. as in the old days he had brought her apples or oranges, now he, was sharing his good fortune with her Still it wasn't to be thought that this could lead to anything more serious. She wouldn't spoil his evening by telling him that now, though. Steve's eyes were fastened on the strip of asphalt ahead, the glittering panorama of the city, tbe pyramids of lighted dots reaching into the sky. The car swerved, veered again, and plunged down another highway to ward Columbus Circle. Dexterouslv Steve swung the car between a pile of cobble stones and a rope bung with red lights. Then Broadway, gloomy in the automobile section but brigut and garisn in tne lower forties. He said, "I am going to take you to tho Halcvon club." Mona knew the Halcyon Club, It had Opened recently and was at tbe moment one of New York's most ad vertised Bupper clubs. Tbe music was the best, tbe dance floor excellent. and the food (incredible for a night club!) appetizing. Tbey left tbe car In the shadows of the side street into which Steve had raided it and walked the few yards to the supper club door. Tbe doorman recognized Steve and answered his greeting effusively, springing" to hold the swinging doors apart. Mona and Steve walked down thick ly curpated steps into the tiny foyer lined with mirrors. Then through more swinging doora toward the in ftinuatinr murmurs of the orchestra It was easy to see that Steve was delighted to be able to bring Mona here. Tbe admiring glances of the men they massed, the speculative, en vious glances of the women were no new experience lor juona out. tuey gratified her escort. Their table was near the space cleared for dancing. Mona tossed the priceless cloak from her shoulders and emerged like a sea nymph in her sea green frock. "Like it?" asked Mona boldly as Steve's eyes registered tbe answer to her query. She went on, "Little thing I picked up this afternoon. Picked up in my room where it bad no business to be!" She eniphssized the last four words wtth little statin of ber fineer in tbe air. She waa flirting with him I It was safe enough here where he could not kiss ber again. Steve's eyes, however, turned away and searched the room speculatively. "I'm expecting my partner, no ex-nlninori- Ktpre stormed short. "Great Guns, look who's here! be exclaimed.
