Wat ahe rare of that? "Did Molly tell you that? i Is aha In love with me?" .Tean laughed unhappily. "You're balmy, Johnny. She thinks you're cute as a bug's ear." Johnny cursed himself for let ting Jean nee hia heart He'd spread it out before her and (he waa sneering. "Why go home, then? Why not atay here and heckle? Think I can't take It?" She looked at him, almost with pity. "Oh, Johnny, what'a the use? I've tried to like the girl, honestly I have. She's so smooth and beautiful ahe frightens ma to . death. And she's a grand actress. But ahe's ambitious, Johnny." Johnny snorted. "Ambition isn't any crime. Let ma tell you some thing; my sweet poisoning my mind Isn't going to help. I'd marry Molly tomorrow, if she'd have me." "I won't be here tomorrow to aee that, thank heaven," Jean an swered. She sat down on the sea chest and swung her feet She was still j a little girl, Johnny thought. Brown legs and socks, cardigan' buttoned once at the neck, silly little ribbons tucked into her brown curls. Nothing alluring or mysterious about Jean. Just a ,little girl, hurt and angry because somebody had broken her favorite doll. k "Jean," he said. "I'm sorry, truly I am. Don't think I haven't missed our Cape Cod, the one of other summers. Sometimes I wish I'd never laid eyes on Molly. I'd be happier, I suppose, digging quahaugs and sailing with you, not being in love." "Is it love?" Jean asked with glimmer of wisdom that hardly belonged to little girt "I won der." a THFY were silent for a minute, so still that they could hear tha clock ticking. It'a the perfect moment for me to say, "Let's be friends," thought Johnny. But he said nothing, busied himself v swishing Imaginary dust from pin eont parrots. "what I really came to say," Jean was speaking steadily, as if she had taken a deep breath and it was safe to continue, "is that I've lent my cameo to Molly for hex part in the play, and sine I won't be here to retrieve It, I want you to send it to me." "Why, Jean," Johnny gasped, "that's a foolish thing for you to do. Tha Reynolds cameo is a museum piece! You know that" He sounded like the stem par ent What was Jean thinking of? The Metropolitan was still nego tiating for the Reynolds cameo. It had been made especially in Italy ; for Jean's grandmother. There were certain peculiarities about its design which made it invaluable. Jean looked at him intently. "Sure you're not thinking of the legend? It's unlucky if anyone but a Reynolds wears It, you know." "That old legend is pure Action. I was thinking of the value of the brooch, and what your father would say if hs knew you lent it to Molly." ; "Oh, shell take care of it," Jean I assured him. "I was wearing it the afternoon she came to tea. She said, 'What a lovely old cameo. I had imagined Mrs. 'Lyons wearing one just like it at 'her throat' Mrs. Lyons, that's who she is in the play." "And so you took it right off and put it in her hand." Johnny was exasperated. Jean jumped from the chest and came over to where he stood, straightening his desk to hide his annoyance. "A friend of yours is a friend of mine," ahe told him, "and I'm not going to embarrass myself by asking her to give it back before the play. Now get over your mad, 'and kiss me good by for old times' sake." Jean was in his arms kissing him as ah had never kissed him 'before. Somewhere in his heart a dormant flurry stirred. He pushed her away from him. "Johnny, I love you so, and il'H go on loving you forever. I haven't any pride to say it. That's why I can't stay here. When I go where we used to go, walk where we used to walk, It's like stamping on a grave, Johnny." She was crying softly in his arms. "Stop, dearest," he said, patting her shoulders. He hated himself for what had happened to them, but his feeling for Molly was the same. He couldn't deny that, even with Jean so near to him. a a a 'THEY didn't know that Molly had come In until she spoke. "Am I interrupting? I thought .the bell jangled, but I can go back and knock." Jean jumped from Johnny's iarms. They both looked like chil dren caught robbing a cookie jar. ; Molly smiled superciliously. "It that's what you meant by kid Istuff, I'm sorry you consider me I grown up." "I waa simply telling him good by," Jean explained. "I'm going back to Boston in the morning." Molly took a step toward Jean. Her voica waa grim with author- Both our cottages were washed out to sea." Molly wasn't listening. She was staring at the stage door of the theater, her blue eyes boring through its entrance. "Afraid you wouldn't have a chance to wear her cameo?" Johnny asked Idly. "What on earth do you mean You can't go back to Boston. , by ,,. jia, Andre Masters seen her?" Molly demanded. (To H Continued OUT OUR WAY By J. R. WILLIAMS OUR BOARDING HOUSE With MAJOR HOOPLE CoavmaHT. lean, NBA S.n.VICS. HO- . Mr. Earl has you on props, and I you wouldn't dare walk out at the last minute like this." Jean reminded Johnny of a very small kitten spitting at a huge important Angora. "I've got him I everything he asked for. I evrn I know where I can find that old oil lamp to hang from the ceiling. I Everything will be ready in the : wings, and the rest of the com mittee can do a little work. The theater is not my life. I'll walk when and where I please." "That's just what 1 thought would happen," Molly retorted angrily. "Junior Leaguers and society girls, always so willing to help, and then at the last minute something else turns up." Johnny interrupted then. "Don't talk like that to Jean, Molly." he aaid quietly. "She's worked like a dog, and if she feels she has to go home now, I don't think any of us should try to stop her." "So you were trying to stop her with a few kisses? What kind of man are you, Johnny Regan? I don't believe I know your par ticular type." She had turned on Johnny and was whipping him with her words. "I'll ask Mr. Earl." said Jean. "He'll tell me whether or not any of his bird-brained apprentices can get the stuff back where it belongs." She flounced out of the shop. Molly ran after her, calling to her. , Jean went into the stage entrance of the theater and slammed the door. Johnny laughed. : "You don't know Jean. The hur ricane that hit the Cape in '38 couldn't keep her here. That time jit was a good thing she started.
