She is irked when Brynmor calls her a “nice girl, too darn nice.” At the night club Brynmor leaves her to see Clarice. The club i raided and Mary Lou cscapes with Tony Titherington, a ctranger whom she likes. She is termined to have a good time in London, despite Brynmor's change of heart, and Tony has promised to show her the sights. In return she must go with him to see his Aunt Ethelberta—for some unknown reason. It is al- mest daylight when Tony takes Mary Lou to the home of her " coucin Jay, where she is stay- ing. Chapter “HOW DID YOU DO IT?” Jay had been as good as her word. Not only had she stayed awake, but she had made some hot chocolate. “I thought you might she explained.

She looked equally smart in a gingham apron or a Parisian gown. Her trim little figure was the envy of customers in her gown shop. Even now, in her black silk ki- mono and tiny mules, Jay managed to look as if she were ready for a stage appearance, instead of having arisen’ in the middle of the night. “Well, T'll say you did make the most of your first night in town,” she exclaimed, when Mary Lou had finished. “But what's the other name of this fellow Tony?” Mary Lou produced the card Tony had given her. “Mr. Anthony Oswald Tithering- ton,” Jay read aloud. She sprang from the table and grabbed Mary Lou by the wrists. “Jumping cats! Why didn't you tell me who he was?” “Who is he?” asked a bewildered Mary Lou. “Why, child, don't you read the papers? He's one of our latest sen- sations in town.” Mary Lou still looked bewildered. " “Mr. Titherington is an amatew pilot. Daredevil Tony, they cal him.
