i&fjhw byWATKINS E WRIGHT
Lorls Barmond' I seeking
maslcal career la New York, bat
finds the f oin( difficult, aa doe
Carry Carson, young woaid-be
architect. They become friends,
and hear of Roland Potter,
wealthy old bachelor, who wants
to help a worthy young couple by
paying then to act aa caretakers
on his Long Island estate. Loria
and Carey marry temporarily, on
strictly business basis, to get
the Job. They are hired and Pot
ter leaves on a cruise, after Intro
ducing Iris Wrenahaw. beautiful
and wealthy, who takes a fancy
to Carey. Carey and Lorls win an
amateur prise at a waysid night
club, where they hope for a sing
ing and playing engagement.
Loria gets a proposal of marriage
from a home-town suitor Just
after she agrees to entertain Irlm,
whom Carey Is counting on to
promote his career as an archi
tect. CHAPTER XXI
I ORIS was In the living room
taking to Iris on the phone
when Carey strolled In. Lorls
saw him out of the corner of
her eye and wanted to laugh.
Carey was trying so hard to ap
pear Indifferent when he ac
tually was on edge, wondering
If Iris would come to the beach
party.
"Then you can come?" asked
Lorls.
Til be delighted I" Iris ex
claimed. "I was Just thinking about
you and your husband wondering
If you wouldn't like to drop In soma
afternoon for cocktails.''
Lorls knew full well Iris hadnt
given her a thought. No doubt she
had been scheming to find some
way to get hold of Carey without
asking his wife.
Lorls turned In tune to see Carey
light a cigarette. "She'll be delight
ed to come and Join us."
"Final" said Carey. "Where's she,
been or has she been anywhere?"
"She spent a week In the Adiron
dack, and took a short cruise with
some friends. She leads a charmed
life, doesn't she?"
"That's why she Is so eager to da
something that will really Justify
her existence."
"Such as helping young archi
tects! By the way. she said she had
been thinking of us and was about
to extend an Invitation when I tele
phoned her."
-Dinner?"
"No. cocktails."
"Oosh. that would be great I"
Carey enthused. "Chance to meet
some other future patrons."
"I don't think so."
"Why not?"
"Sounded as though she had a
threesome In mind." Lorls frowned.
"Do you know what I think about
Mlos Wrenahaw?"
"Nothing very complimentary.
Tin afraid."
"I think she wants to cultivate
you. but doesnt want to have you
meet too many members of her ex
clusive set while you're only a care
taker. You mads a mistake In tell
ing her ."
"I believe In being honest." said
Carey. "I'm not actor enough to
practice deceit and get away with
It."
"Once she has launched you as
an architect, she may see that you
meet the proper people. But for the
time being she's content to see you
alone, or on our beach, with only
me to make the crowd or she'll
go so far as to Invite us to cocktails
some afternoon when there's no
one around to meet us."
Carey frowned. "Frankly. Lorls,
I think you're being downright cat
ty," be said. "Iris Wrenahaw does

"Maybe I am wrong, and you are
right." Lorls shrugged. Bitting
down at the piano, she began to
Improvise.
AS CARET watched her. he be
gan to resent the msn Lortr
had left behind her. The man had
no right to take Lorls back to some
obscure town and turn her Into a
plump matron. Lorls. tied down by
endless household duties kids
pulling at her skirts no time to
sit down and play her piano dusty
and out of tune from lack of use. It
was not a pleasant picture that
mlnd-palntlng of Lorls and life In
her old home town. In fact. Pot
tersplace was the setting he pic
tured for Lorls. It was the sort of
setting she deserved.
Lorls struck a closing chord,
whirled upon the piano bench, and
smiled up at Carey.
"Thinking of how romantic Iris
Wrenahaw Is going to look eating a
hot dog?"
"No."
"What then?"
"Thinking of how un romantic
you are going to look running a
home ror that guy Ralph Burcn.
"Why waste time thinking about
that. Carey?"
"Listen. Lorls." Carey said ear
nestly, "promise me something."
"What Is It?"
"Promise me you wont be In too
big a hurry to go back and marry."
"Why should I make a promise
like that to you, of all people?"
Lorls flared. "You're planning your
life, aren't you? Then leave me to
make my plans."
"Don't be angry. I was only
thinking that If I went over as an
architect. I might be able to Inter
est some wealthy people In your
music someone who will become
your patron, and see that you get
the breaks."
"That's very generous of you."
said Lorls. "But I don't want a
patron.' If I can't succeed because
of my talent as a musician. I'd
rather go home and become Mrs.
Ralph Burch. than have some rich
dowager, or disgustingly wealthy
old man. try to push me down the
throat of the public." ;
"Well, you needn't blow the roof ,
off," said Carey.
Lorls looked at her watch. "Do
you realize we haven't even started
our evening meal?"
"Now that you remind me, I'm
hungry."
I1THEN they were eating the '
" bacon and eggs they had pre- j
pared. Carey began thinking of I
himself as a dog In the manger.
That fellow down South wasnt
worthy of a girl like Lorls I Then
an Inner voice asked:
"Are you worthy of her? If so.
what's to keep you from holding
her?"
Carey found those two questions
difficult to answer. A man should
not be married to a girl he does not
really love, he brooded. There had
been times when he was almost cer
tain he was falling In love with
Lorls. But that was before he and
Iris had spent that exciting day to
gether In Manhattan.
Now that he realized how much a
young architect needed proper con
tacts to get ahead, he felt differ
ently about a lot of things partic
ularly about Lorls,
Fighting such thoughts. Carey
tried to chat casually as he ate with
Lorls. But each time he remem
bered that he was to see Iris soon.
Iris In the moonlight, his heart
leaped.
