Mary Lou wished she might have been responsible for the change.

T demure trusting Mary Lou is hurt when he refers to her as a “nice girl” She resolves to have a good time despite Bryn- mor, whom she had loved de- votedly. He is having an affair with Clarice Day, a night club dancer. Mary Lou is overjoyed when Tony Titherington, a rich young airplane pilot, offers to show her the town. They plan to attend a series of parties and dances. Mary Lou tells Bryn- mor she is “booked up” when he tries to apologize for his conduct.

Mary Lou laughed aloud. “You're an idiot, Tony.” “Thanks. But what is your sec- ret bogey—seriously.” “I think,” she admitted, half shame-facedly, “it's falling in love with a man who doesn’t love me.” Tony emitted a snort of sur- prise. “No fear of that. Not when I've finished with you. Look at the hit you made at the Hay's dance last hight. I could scarcely get a dance with you.” “Nobly said,” Mary Lou flashed back, “but I don't flatter myself you tried very hard.” “Would you like me to tell you miy secret bogey?” Tony asked in reply. . “I'm all attention.” “Well, it’s the fear that some girl will fall in love with me.” “The wrong girl?” “Any girl would be the wrong girl for me.” “Oh!” There was silence for a moment.
