A r look almoil dam Jorco toko port with Dick. CHAPTER VIII r0WN In her cabin pleasant lurprlse greeted Joyce', eyes. In the center of the room, on a dress hanger hooked through the fan, was her white dress, spot less and pressed as If it had never known a drop of water. She tried the dress on, praying that It had not shrunk. But no; if there was any shrinkage, the stewardess had stretched it out. It fitted smoothly as ever. No one would ever guess that It had spent many hours In the Bermuda har bor. . So Joyce went up to dinner with light heart, proof against Mrs. Porter's frigid charm and Isobel's sophisticated pout Dick, she noticed, was develop ing a nasty cold, sneezing and sniffling and gasping, yet att the while trying to persuade the doc tor that he never had a cold In his life not a real cold. But before the meal was over he left the dining room, taking his sneezes with him so that the , others might enjoy their own din ' ner in quiet As long as he sat there, they waited expectantly, holding their breath, for each new outbreak. oo CO it was Mr. Gregory who took " Joyce up to the dance on deck, and perhaps, she decided, that was as it should be because she Was wearing his flowers. After the first dance Captain Boyer came forward to claim Joyce. "The only trouble," he re marked gallantly, as he proved himself a more-than-capable mas ter of the waltz, "is that there are to many lovely young ladies that we can't dance with all of them." Joyce laughed, enjoying the moment "Why not try a Paul Jones?" she suggested carelessly, "you'd get around more." "A Paul Jones?" Captain Boyer aearched his memory for the meaning of it Then recalling, be added brightly: "Of course. That's the dance where we all change partners, isn't it? Why didn't I think of It before?" As the dance ended, he went over and made the suggestion to the orchestra leader before re turning Joyce to her table. Gaily the orchestra leader blew a whistle and called the changes: "Single line, now, and MARCH! Hands on shoulders" . . . "Ladies right, gentlemen left" ... "Find our partners!" Faster and faster the music was stepped up: more and more hilari ous became the dancing. Joyce went through the changes, her cheeks flushed, smiling in bright abandon because she did not real ize that anything so gay as a Paul Jones might bring its difficulties. - - o ' rpHEN Joyce, stepping along merrily, hand over hand, looKed aown the line of approach ing men and caught her breath. "Lord!" she thought, "look what's coming!" For there, directly in tront oi ner, just one man re moved now, was pudgy Mr. O'Hara, still swaying unsteadily but beaming assuredly under a Napoleonic hat of vivid red. Now she was In Mr. O'Hara's arms, and he, unmindful of the routine of the dance, took quick advantage of the situation. He led her out of the circle, stepped her into a brisk, old-time two step. Presently the whistle did sound, and the others resumed the dancing, so there was nothing to do but enjoy these few moments of Mr. O'Hara's brief abandon ment. "Tha's the little girl!" he ap proved heartily. "We'll show 'em. Boy, you're some HI stepper, baby! FLAPPER FANNY pa.imarnusEimct.iK. ii.i i i. CO 1 "I don't know the name, but It's that new cowboy story magazine that just fits in a geography." Copyright, V, NEA SwyIc, lo. In between his casual remarks, his lusty voice would now and then be raised exuberantly, In tune and out of tune, to the or chestra's selection. After the first few steps, Joyce forgot to worry about him. Let him have his fun, she thought, with a bit of Aunt Martha's phi losophy. After all, he doesn't have much chance, not with Old Plckle Puss always behind him. ... The whistle sounded once more, and the dancers fell into a line of march. But not Mr. O'Hara. "Think I'm going to change partners now?" he demanded. "No, sir-e-e-e!" So they kept up a little dance of their own, a dance which was a bit of a two-step, and some thing of a fox-trot and not at all unlike an Alabama cake-walk. And the others who danced turned to look at them, and those who sat at nearby tables laughed ap preciatively, and Joyce laughed too because well, what of it? TNTO a circle the dancers formed, and Mr. O'Hara con tinued his little specialty in the very center of It, while those about paused for a moment to applaud his efforts. Right and left went the dancers, and presently new partners found each other quickly, at the sound of the whistle. And still Joyce danced with Napoleon O'Hara. Now, prancing past the captain, he smiled proudly. "How'm I doin'. Captain?" And Captain Boyer grinned good-naturedly. 'Tine!" he assured him. But enough is enough, Joyce decided. The perspiration was forming In tiny beads on her fore head, and her feet could stand no more, yet her partner showed no Indication of giving up. "I think IH have to stop," she protested finally. "It' so very warm "Nonsense!" protested the gen tleman, tightening his hold about her waist. "We're just beginning to step. Beautiful. Say, can you do the Big Apple?" "No. I'm sorry " "What? All the young people are doing the Big Apple. It goes like this. . . ." In some devious fashion he be gan to limber his knees, to bend them this way and that, looking for all the world like a toy bal loon on a fork. ... Over . his shoulder, Joyce" cast an appealing glance toward Mr. Gregory, sitting expressionless at their table. But whether he un derstood the signal or not, he made no move to help her out of the situation. Now they were Indeed becom ing ridiculous, yet Joyce only ag gravated the matter by attempt ing to free herself. "I'll look like a fool," she thought "if I try to saw how-dare-you-slr after let ting it go this far. ... If only Dick were here " Finally, across the deck, she caught Mr. Roberts' eye and he winked back, understanding!?, and made his way toward the or chestra, thinking, perhaps, if the music stopped so would Mr. O'Hara. But before he had taken two steps, relief did come to Joyce, and from a very unexpected lource. She felt a strong hand on her shoulder, and she was spun luickly about to face a still furi ous Mrs. O'Hara. "Haven't you made a sufficient rpectacle of yourself today?" she demanded of her husband through tight lips. Sheepishly he tried to explain. His wife paid no attention. In stead she turned to Joyce, and In a voice which carried over the entire deck, she cried: "As for you, young woman, I'd thank you to keep away from my husband."
