PAGE EIGHT “Are All Men Alike’ By Arthur Stringer Author of “The Prairle Wife” INSTALLMENT WHO's WHO Theodora (Teddie) Hayden, a “poor Uttle rich girl.” seeks “freedom” in Greenwich’ Village. Her Unele Chandler, ‘the major,” before | Jeaving for Hot Springs, goes to see) her, telling his old chum, Conunodore Stillman, that she {s “too pretty to be running around loose.” Her unc‘ 1s forced to be sat- istied with her independent attitude. Raoul Unhian, a portrait painter, forces his attentions on Teddie and| kisses her. To punish him she esks| Gunboat Dorgan, a prize fighter, to eat him, which Dorgan does. Dorgan thereupon also kisses her and as: sumes rights over her roadster, much to the annoyance of Ruby Reamer, a modet, who threat- ens Teddie with “the law,” because Dorgan has apparently thrown her over. . Attorney repre: ne Raoul Ublan, calls to demand $25,000 for his client for the beating. So Ted- die calls on | Gerry West, one of her own set, a childhood playmate, now a lawyer.) She te:ls her story, whereupon Gerry also kisses her, Louis Lipsett, a reporter on the Star, is called in by West, who takes ateps in spite of Teddie’s indignation at being kissed again, to fight her enemies. Teddie, however, decides to pay Milan's claim. Teddle is visited by the Commodore who arrives just as she hands Shot- well a $25,000 check for Uhlan. The Commodore, overwhelmed with eym- pathy, kisses her just as Dorgan en- ters. Explanations follow. The Com- modore leaves to telegraph Uncle Chandler to refurn and Dorgan starts out to get back the check. Gerry West recovers her car, brings ft back to her studio and is interrupt- ed in his attempt at lovemaking when Dorgan drags in Lipsett. Teddy fiercely repudiates Gerry and ennounces she !s going home, just as Uncle Chandler enters. Teddie is told by her uncle of a} rumor that Gerry is to marry “that Rivers girl.” Immediately she or- (ers her car and drives away. Gerry Gives War. . os she swung into the open road and headed for the hills of forgetfulness, which receded as she approached them, remembered that she was at least mistress of that everresponsive piece of machinery on which she sat poised Ifke a stormy petrel on the crest of a comber. It was hers to hasten and retard. to control and direct, as she wished. It was ‘hers to curb into submission and harry into dust-trailing violation of the state road laws. And as she went careening along the open highway, crouched frown: ingly over her mahogany wheel, she sought to ease the tumult in her | next hill—at a rate, be it recorded, perplexed young body by drinking up distance very much as disheartened men drink alcohol. She did her best to @rug herself with eneot, lettings the alr whip through the open windshield and @ing her clouded anq untalcumed young face. When she caught sight of Laday O'Brien, the traffic cop at the Valley Crossing, she dropped an eye to her speedometer and automatically slow- ed down. Quite automatically, too she accosted that officer, after the long-ests od manner so disap- prove’ of her family, by raising her left hand to level of her ear, hold ing the palm outward, and wigwag Boils Sat Gukch!

Luddy grinned briefly but frater- nally saluted, and declined to com mit himself, as an officer of tho law, by turning to observe her as she swept past him and mbunted the ot strictly in accorcance with trat- ic regulations. EDDIE, tn fact, was already dis: covering how brief and deluding can be the sense of release born of four flying wheels with nowhere in partidular to fly ta She almost wished that she might hear the put- put of Luddy’s motorcycle as it rode her down. She almost wished that Luddy would arrest her and have her com- mitted to a fallyard with high walls where she couldn't possibly get out ang where she could spend what remained of her blighted I!fe break- ing lmestone rocks with a big ham- mer, breaking them by thumping th il they went to pieces, thi same as she'd like to thump a few heads. Then her thoughts went back to her car. From the crest of the hill | which it had mounted like a swallow, Tedd!e could see the familiar gray ribbon of the road where it twined | through the woodlanded valley be- low her. It was a very inviting road. It was more than inviting, in Teddie’s pres- ent mood—it was challenging. An‘ sho breathed deeper as she saw that ho couldn't even afford to keep an eye on her speedometer dial. She wns more than half-way down the long slope when she first caught | sight of the motor-truck loaded with a doubie tier of cement blocks. That failed to trouble her, however, for sho had ample room to silther oy. | What did trouble her, for a mo- ment, was something coming down the opposing slope. It was a pigeon gray roadster, stripped of its top, a homely and heavy-bodied roadster | which trailed rolling cumull of road- ust in {ts wake, | Teddie’s quick eye told her that as| the different factots now revealed| themselves the pigeon-gray roadster would pay the motor truck before she| could. This meant that would have to give way and vlow down and humbly wait for the autocrat piloting the p:geon-gray roadster. And this Tedcte had neither desire nor the intention of doing. Because she knew who owned that roadster. She knew {t even before she saw the bareheaded driver alone in the high-backed seat, the tanned | and goggled face with the oil-stained old putty-colored” motor-coat but-| toned close up under the bony young Caesar-Augustin chin. It was Gerry West's car. And Gerry West was in {t, Smperiaily de- manding his right-of-way as he pounded man-like down a road which| he regarded as entirely and altogeth- | er his own. But it was not Teddle’s intention, that afternoon, to play second fiddle to any one. Toddic’s heart tightened a little, for she knew It would take prompt- ness to swing out to the left and back to the right again before the lordly roaceter pounded opposite the motor-lorry. If he had to slow up, at the last moment, so much the botter, for he seemed, at the moment, to stand typ- cal of those steam-rollers of which she had always so actively re- sented, It was a bigger car than hers, a! listinct'y male car, and as such it wed her consideration. The burden f courtesy naturally must rest up- on ft. th UBLIMINALLY her practised eye was measuring the distances, xppraising the apeed of the rival car, evaluating the advance of the mo- tortruck. Her palm punched the horn at the same time thet her foot pushed down the accelerator. Then she = ca- reened ahead, claiming her fairway by right of conquest! She nunched the horn again, for the dust was troubling her more than she had expected. She swung out to the left to clear the thundering motor truck, rocked up to {t, was abreast of {t, and saw the plgeon-gray road- ster opposing her, dancing down on her, with no visible decrease of speed. He was not giving way an tnch— and she knew what ft meant. The truck still hemmed her in on the right, cluttering briskly forward, im- perturbablea nd indifferent. It was too late to swing ahead and over; it wes too late to alow down and Crop back. Gerald Rhine!ander West was re- fusing to give in to her, But Gerry, at that moment, must have seen her, He must have seen her for the first time, just as he saw for the first time what was going to happen {f they thundered together. And he gave way. He gave way in the only manner possible by throwing over hin wheel and taking the ditch. There was 0 thump and scrape of mud-uards, a shout from the startled truck-driver, and an !nvoluntary soprano scream from Teddie as she stiffened at her wheel. With # grinding of rubber and gravel she brought her car to a stop. (Copyright, 1922, Bell Syndicate, Ino.
