But he made up his mind to stay for supper on the odd chance of a chat with Crerry and improved the mo- ments that remained by seeking th men's dressing room and a cigarette He found the stairway blocked by couples en tete-a-tete, many of them sharing clgarettes, and at the top of the stairway, where he took the wrong turn, he stumbled into a dark corner where there was a window seat out of sight of the others. There a girl and a hoy were embracing each other with the innecent abstraction of two turtle doves, “Heigho!" thought Rameses, “Mere force of habit. They've forgotten that their fect aren't dancing. But cven in the dark he had seen that the girl was Cherry's friend. Gloria Towne. He having met the boy.

But at Sa sudden appearancs the turtle had spread thelr wings wnd d, rather etartled, down th stairs to the ballroom. In the dressing room he found sev- eral youths that he had met.

Who says 'lecit? said the other glancing around heavily. “Don’t I tell you I love—hic—hic—I know wWha's matter 'th you, Harry muttered as the other bo “Yow're jus' fuller ' wha's matter.” His volce subsided into a mumble and presently he slept. But as the boy's head fell back Sangree dis- covered that the youthful inebriate was Cherry Mohun's brother Bob. At supper, which was served in the dining room, hall and conservatory, Cherry espied her friend wandering absently about and made him sit at her table with Eugenia Armitage, Phoebe Macklin, Dicky Wilberforce, John Chichester and Bruce Cowan. He found the food more substantial than the conversation, which, 1tke the wine, sparkled in tiny bubbles and burst into nothing. But every one seemed to be having a good time and soon the visitor found himself falling under the spell of thelr gayety and irresponsibility which for the moment had rescued him from his Cave of Adullum. "It was Cherry Mohun's friend. Bruce Cowan, whose laughter first was loudest, for Dicky became quieter the more he drank, and John Chichester, as ever ex- hilarated over champagne. Cherry's eyes glowed, Phoebe grew senti- mental and Genle's tongue mocked, but they were all decorous, and when the fourth bottle came Cherry sent it away. It seemed that in this partic- ular Olympus the gods had their lim- itations. But_at some of the other tables near by the fun was now furious. Sylvia Wetherill and Harold Gal braith were trying an imitation of pas de deux amid applause and Teddy Waring did & juggling act for which he was famous.

But, the preofs out of his. hands. sangree formed the habit of dropping n at the Olvmpian in the late after- noon to read the papers or-to chat vith George Lycett, who still ‘con- tinued. after fashion, to be his mentor and guide. He found, too, that & number of the young men whom he had met during the season were to be found there in the billlard or card rooms, bemoaning their fate at having been born_in a country Which could see fit to deprive its citi ns of thelr rights as individuals, which meant that they were thirsty and didn't care who knew it. The attendance at the Olympian. as at by prohibition, and the large rooms | which had formerly hummed with the | sounds of pleasant voices were now | Imost deserted, except at the lunch- eon hour. Its members had engage- ewhere. Perhaps they went | home to their wives and families. But they did not make of “the Morgue.” as they called it, a meeting place or a refuge from “the cares that infest the day.” And,"indeed, the lofty ceilings of the huge rooms, designed for dignity and beavty, seemed to absorb ail sounds of conversation. and foot steps upon the marble hallway gave forth a vault-like echo, which made the name the younger men hdd given the place seem most fitting. The silence of the reading room was in- terrupted only by the quiet snores of respectable, if weary. old gentlemen, | who had dozed over their newspapers, the atmosphere of the place suited Sangree admirably. He found some profit in the library where at odd moments, for diversion he browsed over Ferrero or plowed through Hesiod. or when in a phil- osophic mood dipped into the “max- ims" of Publius Syrus. There, some- times, Mr. Lycett found him and led him down. against his will, into the company of his fellow man. even if he wers only Harold Galbraith or Teddy Waring. This, in uccordance with the desire. so aptly expressed by. Cherry Mohun, that the seeker after truth should become David Sangree instead of Rameses the Second. (To be continued {omorrow.)
