Ha was loaded down with a coif bac, tenuis racket, his luggage, and a deck tennt. set ha bad brought (or Gerard. Barrett, meeting him at tha station, felt for the first time an impulse of friendttnoao toward the younger "Hi!" Bob sung oat beartilT. He'd heard the gossip about Bar rett's ward and refused to believe a word of it. Bob would admit that Barrett ColTin might be "dumb" but he wasn't the sort to bo involved in such an affair as the gosslpers inferred. "It was good of 70a to come down. Bob." said Barrett. There was an atmosphere of outdoors, hot sua. wind-swept links and baking courts about Bob Telfare that was extremely appealing. "Good of met Say, how do 700 get that way? It was swell of yon to ask me. Is that the youngster in the rumble seat of yoar ear?" "Tea. I suppose there's been some talk about him?" "Oh, sure. Ton know how peo ple are! But as I figure It out. It doesn't matter much what peo ple say so long as you know the truth yourself. There are some people in the world who always bare to have something to talk about. And they're not worth considering!" They were almost beside the car now .and Gerald had climbed out. Barrett introduced him. "This Is my adopted son. Gerald ColTin. Mr. Telfare." Gerald's own name, Moore, had of coarse been abandoned. "Bow do yon do?" Gerald stam mered, grinning and revealing thus the missing front tooth that seems to make a certain type of small boy so much more appeal ing. They settled themselres ta the car and Bob told Gerald about the present he had brought for him. "Gee!" said the youngster. And then, "III bare a lot of fun with It, Mr. Telfare. Will you play with met" Bob assured him that be would. "Nice kid!" he said to Barrett after they were on their way. "Tee. he is." Barrett agreed. "I waa awfully sorry to hear about Marcta's and Dick's kiea ' "It's been qni(e a Mow." . "Must hare been." aaa "TBS car, reaching the top of a MU, presented a view of the Sound. R was a view Barrett had come to tike, giving a suggestion, aa it did, of English downs and their tranquility. Bob murmured that It would be a "swell place for a goat course." Barrett laughed at that. "I like you. Bob!" he announced. "Why not?" the other asked, adding, "It's easier to like people. I do generally, having a weakness for peace and comfort." "It's not always easy," Barrett said, "for an older man to like a young man whom bis wife likes!" "How do you get that way?" Bob asked indignantly. Then be turned, grinning. "Say, was that your old complaint at Aiken?" "Tes," Barrett admitted. "But, good Lord why, Elinor never would look at me If you were In the tame room! And she didn't before you stopped Into the picture either. I guess I used to make myself pretty much of a pest You see, I was crazy over ber and I still am, but it needn't trouble you, nor her either. She never gave me the slightest en couragement. You know bow Elinor la Square as they make em. I remember one time I lost my head and kissed her Gosb!" The boy was speaking the truth. Barrett knew. And he also knew that he was teeing the world mistily, that he had never been happy nor felt so bumble, and that he must be on guard lest he give himself away completely. Bob went on. "Speaking frankly," he said, " and as an old friend of Elinor's. I hope you'll forgive me for saying this I have often wondered how she eould be the kind of a girl she Is. Her mother's the biggest liar this tide of bell. By the way, can the kid back there hear what I'm say ing?" aaa J ARIIETT assured him that he could not. "Aside from the Thropes." Bob went on, "they're all bad eggs In VILAND- TA YLOR their various ways. Her father adored Elinor but he bad bit weaknesses and aba knew all about them. That's aot so nice tor a decent (IrL And you know bow he drank stewed to the gills very nignt. rarchln all over the place " "Yes." Barrett conceded not quite ateadily. "Then there's Philip Sejton. I After Elinor settled that $100.00 on him he waa whining all the time for more " Barrett waa all attention. Philip Sexton! 80 that waa where the ,100.000 had gone! He had thought Elinor kept the money tor herself after pretending such acorn for Miss Ella's money. "I met ber one day last winter at Poll's,- Bob went on. "I've sort of kept In touch with Phil because I did think he had a raw deal. Elinor used to go to tee him often. Philip waa tick and whenever she came all he did waa to talk of how much yon and she had and how little he had. He's a bum If there ever waa one!" "I didn't know he waa in New Tork," Barrett heard himself say. "That was Phil's secret. He didn't want anyone to know. He waa awfully sensitive about that scandal he was mixed np In. Forc ing Miss Sexton a check, yoa know. You did know about that, didn't you?" "Yes. I knew that." Bob considered the matter ha his slow way. "Look here." he said abruptly, "I'm afraid I've let the cat out of the bag. - I sup posed of course yoa knew Elinor went to see Philip and that he waa in town" "I didn't, bat I'm very clad to know It now." "IH have to confess to Elinor," Bob said. "Bat I cues she'll for give me." e - e a TLrNOR was waiting' for them on the terrace that ran before the house. "Here's our friend," Barrett called aa he put on the brakes, Elinor didn't understand Bar rett's eyes the reverent, hum ble apology that waa written in them. "Bob!" she amid, looking a and smiting. "He brought me a present," Gerald reminded, his eyes on the luggage and boxes. At dinner that night Bob was pleasantly reassured of Elinor's happiness. She glowed. Barrett's heart went down anew. To see such a change in her made by an other man! He breathed deeply, reminded himself that her happi ness was the one thing he wanted, and was able to force a smile. Bob made his confession about "spilling the beans" concerning Philip. "I didnt know that Barrett didn't know about it, Elinor," Bob said sheepishly. "It doesn't matter," she as sored him. "I didn't tell him be cause Philip was so insistent that no one must know. And he was so good to me when I was a child that I felt I had to respect bit wishes. He didn't want anyone to know he waa m New Tork or that I had given him the money. Philip baa so much pride not the right kind of pride, either. It's the kind that exists to lone aa facts are kept hidden, so lone aa he can pretend that no one helps him. It's difficult to explain but I feM I owed him a good deal. And so 1 promised. I've often thought It was a mistake. Am I forgiven. Barry?" she finished. "My dear!" Barrett stammered. "Ton know yon are!" Bob Telfare glanced from one to the ether and reflected. "They're crazy about each other." Actually there had been tears In Barrett's eyes, brought there by Elinor's question. Well, Bob could understand that. If things had been different he, too, would have been able to feel a smart beneath the eyelids, with ber showing need of his spproraL But things weren't different and perhaps some day he'd meet another glrL Meantime he'd keep in practice tor the golf tourna ments and get as many cup as he could.
