Marcia, iu a red sweater, made a
bright s|M>t on the other side of the
greeu.
Richard waved to her. and she waved
back, dropping her bag of golf clubs
and standing on tiptoe so that he
might se«‘ her «dearly above the busties.
When he «•am«' up to her h«' said:
"Such energy! It’s only 7 o’clock."
“I ho|M*«l to be early enough so that
1 could go around the course alone."
The words were severe, but her eyes
twinkh*d.
"You know you’d rather go with me.”
Richard built up a tee of sand neatly
and topped It with his round white
ball.
“I’ve made my drive." Marcia said,
"arid my ball is lost over there some
where in the bushes; so, if you please.
I’ll follow my nose and find it.”
Amt away she went. And Richard,
putting all his skill into his drive, sent
his ball halfway to the first hole. Then
he picked up his bag ami marched in
leisurely fashion after Marcia.
"Found it?" he questioned.
“No."
"That’s a woman’s trick—to lose a
ball."
She whirled around on him. •‘Just
as it is a man’s trick to lose his heart!"
she blazed.
He grew white.
“1 didn’t think
you’d say n thing like Hint." he said
and turned and left her.
She went running after him. "Oh.
Dirk, Dick!" she < rled. “I didn’t mean
It.” He inim|>ed on. unheeding, and
at last stie came up to him and laid
her hand on his arm. “Really. I didn’t
mean It.” sh«> pleaded.
He stopped and looked «low’ll at her
gravely. “I’ll admit it xvasn’t very
nice of me to make that remark about
the ball.” lie said, “but there's a dif
ference between making fun of a girl’s
game and making fun of a man’s love.”
“Yes. there is,” she admitted. "And
I’m sorry. Dick."
Of cours«' he forgave her. as he had
forgiven her all summer, ever since
that first night when h«> had iieen pre

big hotel and she had divided Ills

had begged pardon so prettily that he
had felt almost as If he were the ot

“But this is th«' end.” he said sternly.

“Have what out?"
“All of It

“Oh!"
“Yott’v«' held me off and parrle«! and
run away, but It’s got to la* settled

very fierce young man sat down on a
hillock and motioned her to another.
“Oh. my goodness!” said Marcia

“Of course I know I’m not worthy

He turn«*«) to her eagerly. “Marcia,
you don’t love Doring?”
She arose «piiekly. “He Is worth a
million."
Richard stood up also. “As if that
would make a tilt of difference to
you.” he said
“You may have your
faults. Marcia, but I don’t believe you
nre mercenary."

But Richard was not listening He
took out his watch "Marcia,” hesaiii

Then Marcia looked at Richard.
“You knew.” she said, “that he was
here?”
He laid his hand on hers. "1 knew,
he told her, “that he was no fit mate

to if you had to put up with that?

He pointed to the wine bottles in the
other room.
She shuddered. “I—I didn’t really
intend to marry him—be-enuse I don’t
love him. Richard.”
"And you didn’t mean what you said
about wanting money?” he questioned
eagerly.
Her eyes met his bravely. “Yes, 1
do like money. Dick. But I wouldn't
sell myself. I couldn't marry without
love.”
“Neither would I," said Dickie bold
ly. “So w hen are you going to marry
me. Marcia?"
She laughed.
“In the spring per
haps.”
“As if I’d wait.” said Richard mas
terfully.
“After breakfast we'll go
back to the links. And if I win the
game you'll have to marry me in Oc
tober. and if you win I'll wait until
spring.”
So back through the clear September
air they went anil played nine boles.
And Marcia did her best.
But a
woman is only a woman, and Dick
was famed for his good game. And
so. after all, the wedding came at the
end of the summer.
