BERMUDA VIA PURNESS. 350 up. round trip. with ‘z:lvuu bath. Prequent sailings direct to dock of Hamilton. ess Ber- muda Line. 34 Whitehall st.. New York. happy, vivid and apparently newly- ‘wedded couple who had recently mov- ed into the corner house in Takoma Park Certainly young Mrs, Melvin with her frank graciousness had given them no other reason to cause the sotto voice comment that always ensued when she passed & group of ladies or left the grocery store with = friendly good-by to them and an invitation to visit. Not that there was any open an- tagonism. By no means! The neighbors, and especially Mrs. Jarrow and Mrs. Walker, in their normally effusive manner, were always “too delighted” to see her and were al- ways quite willing to accept an in- vitation to tea. Mrs. Jarrow, with her peculiar gift of unearthing facts concerning her neighbors, was not the kind to keep her information idle. She supplied the groups of ladies’ organizations with her choicest tidbits of scandal and flavored them with an amazingly logical set of conjectures. She usually preluded her talks, bending over s bridge table, with the confidential remark: “You know, of course, my dears, that this mustn't go an inch farther than this table.” ON! morning Mrs. Jarrow called Mrs. Walker. The exultant ring in her voice told Mrs. Walker that something was afoot. “Stella,” said Mrs. Jarrow, “you'll never know who just drove in.” Stella, who was always obliging, hazarded the names of several dis- tant relatives of Mrs. Jarrow. “Way off my dear. It's Nancy Wade. You remember her. She’s been living the last four years in Reno.” ‘The magic name took its effect. “There’s loads too much to tell you over the phone, Stella. Got your shopping done? . . . Good! Well, meet us at the grocer’s in 10 minutes. Good-by.” Mrs. Jarrow, with Nancy, arrived at the store and eyed the shining sport roadster belonging to Mrs. Mel- vin parked in front, with a trace of resentment fully concealed as she greeted Stella and Mrs. Melvin inside. Introduction followed and Mrs. Jar- row and Stella, with satisfaction, ac- cepted an afternoon invitation to tea for their guest. S MRS. MELVIN drove away with a friendly good-by Nancy turned to Mrs. Jarrow, “Marie, darling, that Melvin woman was living in Reno three years ago.” Too hopeful to be convincing in her words, Mrs. Jarrow replied, “Why, Nancy, you must be mistaken!” ‘With' pleasure Nancy noticed the horrified gasp of Stella. “Impossible, my dear. I'm positive. She estab- lished residence prior to a divorce.” Stella looked at Mrs. Jarrow. A mutual light gleamed in their glance. “I'll bet Mr. Melvin doesn't know!" “Nonsense—but it'd be strange if he didn’t,” Mrs. Jarrow mused. Stella hesitated a bit at & new thought. “Marie, don't you think it is our absolute duty to tell him if he doesn't?” The ladies awaited the visit in and viewed the charming sur- 0 * k& X Tfll doorbell in- terrupted her deprecating reply, That's Mr. Melvin now.” The ladies eyed each other fure tively as the hand- couple, Mr. Melvin. So congenial and happy,” Mrs. Jarrow beamed. “Yes, indeed, Mrs. Jarrow,” said Melvin, “Helen and I are quite satis- fled here in your attractive town. Of course, we have been living in & large city, but we are essentially & small-town couple.” He turned to Nancy. “I suppose you sense the peacefulness here after Reno, don't you, Mrs. Wade?” “Oh, dear, yes,” said Nancy with & little preoccupied laugh. The de- termination to come to the point was making demands on her attention. “But I love to travel. Do you travel much, Mrs. Melvin?” “Very little, I'm afraid. I've seen the few usual places. Niagara, Yel- lowstone, Chicago and very little else. I lived West for & while.” k% TH:!: two neighbors exchanged an imperceptible nod. She was walking right into it. Nancy, with a premeditated start, sat up. ‘“Now 1 know where I've seen you before, Mrs. Melvin.” Nancy shot the words out with their implications. “In Reno, wasn't it? Three years ago?” Mr. Melvin looked at his wife and then at the three guests with an amused glance. “Gosh, Helen, we're caught up with. Well, it really isn't any secret. You see, several years ago we let some meddlesome old women with talents for snooping that rivaled & herd of old sows, come between us and part us. “They were just scandalmongers bent on separating us for some un- knowable reason. Jealousy, maybe; their husbands must have mistreated them dreadfully—or just a total in- capacity to mind their own business. They succeeded for a time. Mrs. Mel- | vin got a divorce; but we had sense | enough to see our mistake. So we remarried.” * k * x THE ladies smiled benignly and very shortly found urgent for- gotten 'duties at home that needed attention. After their departure, Helen looked- ed at her husband. She lifted a tea cup. “Harry,” she said. “Yes, dear.” “It's true, you know. I was in Reno.” Her voice threatened tears. “I know, dear.” “You know!” “Yes, I found out recently. I'd have told you, but you evidently didn't want me to know and 5o it's your secret as far as I'm concerned, and after all, it doesn’t matter. Nothing matters but us. No old fool meddlers are going to change that. Did you see the face on that Wade woman.” his head back and laughed, but Nancy | was more serious. | “I wanted to tell you, Harry, but I He threw || “I¥'s all right on a beach” was afraid. I just couldn’t lose you. I couldn’t risk it.” She went to him as he held out his arms. “Oh, darling!” \ (Coprrisnt, 1936, MORE DANCE BAND - MUSIC LINED UP N. B.
