SUNDAY, JANUARY 21; 1923. ‘Are All Men Alike’ By Arthur Stringer Author of “Tho Prairie Wife” WHO'S WHO Theodora (Teddic) Hayden, a “poor little rich girl,” seeks “freedom” in Greenwich Village. Her Uncle Chandler, ‘the major,” before leaving for Hot Springs, goes to see her, telling his old chum, re Stillman, that she is “too pretty to bo running around loose.” Her un¢‘e is forced to be sat- iafied with her indeyendent attitude. Raoul Uhlan, a portrait painter, forces hi8 attentions on Teddie and kisses her. To punish him she asks! Gunboat Dorgan, a prize tighter, to beat him, which Dorgan does. Dorgan thereupon also kisses “her and as-| sumes rights over her roadster, much | to the annoyance of Reamer, a model, who threat-| ens Teddio with “the law,” because Dorgan has apparently thrown her over, Attorney Shotwell, representing Raoul Udlan, calls to demand $25,000 for his client for the beating. So Ted- die calls on Gerry West, one of her own eet, a B childhood playmate, now a lawyer. She te‘ls her story, whereupon Gerry also kisses her. Louis Lipsett, a reporter on tho Star, 1s called in by West, who takes| iteps in spite of Teddie's indignation it being kissed again, to fight her wmemies. Teddie, however, decides to yay Milan's claim, Teddlo is visited by the Commodore who arrives just as she hands Shot- well a $25,000 check for Uhlan.

She felt the need for untrammelled movement through fresh alr and crav- ing to get out into open spaces and leave the suffocation of city walls. be- hind her. ‘She promptly Cecided in fact, to drive her car out to Tuxedo, and eyen went to the telephone to or- der it from the garage. Then she remembered that she no longer had a car! But this, in the face of the denu- dations with which life had been con- fronting her, did not impress her as @ very vast deprivation. She merely called for another num- | ber and. ordered a taxi contenting ‘herself with the thought of three ters, Explanations follow.

Gerry Decides to ‘'Take Teddic in Hand.” LTHOUGH to the manner born, ‘A Teddie always entertained a fix- ed indifference toward animals and a disturbingly bourgeols admiration for machinery. Horses bit at you as you passed them, and dogs were. rather smelly and Guernsey cows put their heads down’ and tried to horn you if you went near them in scarlet sports- clothes. But a machine was a machine, and aia only and alwsy what it was or-| fained to-do. If you took the trouble to-understand it and treat it right, it remained your meek and faithful ser- vant. Restoring the viscera of disembow- ed traveling-clocks. in fact had given Teddie many repeated lessons in pa tlence and one of her pleagantest in urbe known as Central Park. UT Teddie did not go gloom-riding in Central Park. For when she opened the door to What she thought to be a taxf-driver whe found Gerry West there with his hat in his hand and a look of trlumph in his eyes. “Well, I've got it back,” he an- nounced, only momentarily abashed by the fciness of her manner. “Got what back?" asked —Teddle without so much as asking him to stop Inside, “Your car,’ ‘explained Gerry, -en- tering the abode of art on-his-own hook. “It's down at the door. And I had 'em put on a new pair of lamps on the way over." “I'm sure that was very kin¢, of you." Teddie coldly admitted, But her attitude was. something moro’ than unbending. It was dis- tinctly hostile. For there. were cer: tain things which she wasn't quite to forget. y, Teddie," demanded her quick- ed visitor, entirely ignoring, her ex: obtuse nor unsympathetic; she wue merely a girl who had been prodigi+ ously preoccupied with her fight for freedom and the Cepressing ciscovers. that it was a losing fight. ““Oh! Gerry, what's the matter with me anyway?” she demanded with an altegether anlooked-for’ note or wistfulness in her voice, ‘Don't you know?" he said as he followed her to the window. “Don’t you knew you poor little muddle: headed kia?” Teddie shook her head, She was rather foolishly afraid that Gerry was going to be sympathetic, and- she «idn’t want. that. Sympathy, of late, seemed the inevitable overture to the unmusical opera and mushiness. “I'll tel. you ‘what's the matter with you~Teddie,”. asserted Gerry, wondering «why was refusing to meet his gaze, “You're inflammatory without quite knowing it. You're pro- vocative, without being foolish enough to -have fathomed the ‘fact. The Lord ‘made- you so: lovely, girl, that you put an ache in men’s hearts and a mist in front of their eyes. You make them forget themselves. And that's why I've got to take you: in hand." “Take me in hand?" repeated Tea- Wosstanding up very straight and white, “Yes, take you-in hand,” repeated Gerry in turn, + “I rather think I’ve something td say about that!" q “Tecdie, I've loved you all my life” sald Gerry, quite simply, disregard- ing even the absymal scorn in’ her voice. ‘Then this is no time to tell me a thing like that," she retorted with spirit, “And you're wrong there,” con: tended Gerry, quite unmoved, “It's the only, the essential time.” “What makes you feel that way about it?" asked Teddie, disturbed: by the darkening light in his eye. “Because heaven only knows how long we can be alone here,” was his not altogether satisfactory reply. “T fail to see any particular advan- tage arising out of our—our tem- porary isolation,” retorted Teddie, with. quite unexpected Johnsonian dignity. ‘Ted was Gerry's sharp cry as he towered over her, “Don't you understand?” “Understand what?" asked the girl with the exasperatingly level gazo as she surveyed the none too steady hands which he was ho:ding out to- ward her. a > “That I can’t help kissing you!" he abandonedly exclaimed as he just as abandonedly proceeded to do so.

On ore glorious occasion, in: deed, and quite unknown to her de- luded family, she had chauffed in} secret all the morning of election day, | chauffed for the Democratio party,| with strange banners encircling that dignified vehicle and even stranger figures reposing therein, to say noth- ing of a tin box of champagne-wafers | and a brocaded carton of candied trutt on the driving seat: beside her. But her Uncle Chandler, who was a atauneh Republican had beheld that alllance with the treacherous enemy and rescued the royal-blue limousine from ignominy while Teddie was ro- herself on three ice cream in @ corner drug store.

Ted: die responced with the utmost dig- nity. “But has it?" demanded Gerry, put- ting down his hat. ‘It would if I were left alone,” sald Teddle, biting her lips. “And what would that mean? What would that bring you?" asked Gerry with a suddenly sobered face. “It would bring me the freedom 1 want,” retorted Tedcie, with a chal- lenge still in her gaze, “That is the one thing {t could ne er do, O Helen of the Ruinous ace! corrected Gerry. But Teddie,.who was tn no sense a classical student, saw nothing re- markably appropriate in this allusion to the ancients. “What makes you think that?” she asked, with a tremor in her: voice. She hadn't intended any retreat from her earlier severity of tone. She vrided heraalt 6n not being the sort of girl who would willingly show the white feather.
