Carey responds, bat still resents s msrrlaf e proposal written Lorls by a former suitor. Carer and Lorls win an amateur prise at a wayside night club, where they are called on short notice to slm and play nightly at 175 a week, forcing them ta ' cancel an Invitation to Iris, much te Carey's worry. CHAPTER XXHI LORIS and Carey rehearsed three songs In the limited time before they must leave for their debut at the roadhouse. All three were songs not used on the night when they had won the amateur talent prize. After rehearsing, they ate a sketchy meal, figuring that dinner probably was Included In their weekly salary. Then they hurried to dress. What to wear was no problem. Their lim ited wardrobes settled that. Max Rossner beamed his pleas ure when Lorls and Carey walked Into his office at eight o'clock. "Good, I like promptness," be said cordially, and added: Td like for you to sine Just as you did the other night. Informally. I mean." "We hare three songs we think you'll like very much." said Lorls. "One sentimental, one nostalgic and one very humorous." "Okay." said Max. "Only the hu morous one first, to get everyone good-natured, and wind up with the sentimental one. That will put everyone in a buying mood. You know, toasts to lost loves to mem ories of youth and beauty, or what have you." Max turned to Lorls. "And I want a nice selection for the piano, too. Something with class." "I'm planning on that." said Lorls. "Something by Beethoven. Brahms, or Chopin. la that what you mean?" "That's the Idea exactly." Max looked at his watch. "I've got to start greeting my guests. There's a small table for you two not tar from the orchestra. Just take your places, and at a signal from me. you get up and do your stunt. Surprise element, you know." i After Max hustled out, Lorls pat ted her hair and brushed some powder over her nose. "You look lovely." said Carey. "Thanks I" Mid Lorls. She eyed Carey closely. "Coma here, and let me fix your tie." As Lorls arranged his tie, Carey watched the lights In her hair. Swell girl. Lorts. Wished he could make up his mind about her. TSOETHkA they went out to tht table Max had reserved. While they were eating light sandwiches and coffee. Lorls studied Carey's face, a bit worried. "Everything was going nicely until that Iris Wrenshaw came along," Lorls reflected. She reached across the table and patted Carer's hand. "I know how vou feel about being here like this but let's out everything else out of our minds but the lob before us. Let's sing and play as though our very lives and (CARGO PLANE JIL-Capable of landing In small areas Inacces sible by other means, this Aeronca midget cargo carrier is loaded at Mlddletown. Ohio.

"Oosh. what an Imagination!" said Carey, smiling at last. "You don't by any chance want a career in vaudeville or radio?" "Certainly not." Lorts said. "Will you plar the game with me the let's-pretend business?" "Might as well." said Carey. "We play It every day. dont we?" "Yes. but let's forget that pre tending. Come on." said Lorls. "we have time for a short dance before Mr. Rossner signals us." Carey took Lorls in his arms. Re liked the perfume of her hair. He closed his eyes for a second, and wished that he could be content for always with Lorls and things as they were. "Good dance music lsnt It? said Lorls. "Good dancer I'm with, too." Then the music stopped and they went back to their table. The piano was moved to the center of the floor as before, the lights went out. all but a strong one directly over the Instrument. Max Rossner came out and motioned. LORIS and Carey rose and Max Introduced them as Lorena and Lee. the new feature of the Boule vard Roadhouse. The crowd ap proved. Judging from the applause. The humorous song went over well, the nostalgic one was a hit. and the sentimental one had to be repeated. The later performance was even better than the first. Max was nleased. So were Carey and Lorls. They bad really enjoyed themselves. "Wouldn't ft be funny." ssid Lorls on the way back to Potters place. "If we turned out to be better night club performers than an architect and a concert pianist?" "No." said Carey "It wouldn't be funny. Don't tell me a lot of ap plause has gone to your head." Lorls lapsed into silence. Neither of them spoke until Carey was turning the ear Into the driveway. Then Lorls caught his arm In ex citement. "I thought I saw a man run off the porch!" "Just a shadow probably lights from the car. you know." "No I'm sure it was a man." Lorls Insisted "Oh. Carey, suppose someone hss broken In and stolen all Mr. Potter's lovely things!" "Nonsense!" said Carer. But his voice carried little conviction. "Maybe we'd better not keep up that work at the roadhouse. After all. Mr. Potter it paving us to look after his things." Lorts frowned. "But we do need the extra monev." "Sure we do." said Carey. "After this well leave some of the lights In the house burning." Lorls waited until Carey had locked the garage, and they went in through the rear entrance. "At least well have something to live on when fall comes." said Carey. "Still you are sure to be do ing concert work before Christmas, and I'll be bulldlne little bungalows down near Jones Beach." ' "You're rleht. Carey! We're go ing places. Nothing's going to get us down ever." "Which reminds me." said Carey. "I must telephone Iris Wrenshaw the first thing In the morning. She certainly deserves a better expla nation of why we cancelled our In vitation at the last minute." "Yes. telephone her by all means." said Lorls. Carey gave her a keen look, then went on a tour of Inspection to see if all was well at Pottersplsce. Sud denly very unhaopy. Lorts fought to keep from bursting Into tears.
