Chapter 38 BARBARA'S LETTER ARBARA woke, as sho always: did, with all senses alert. She looked round the severe hotel bed- room and remembered how she had rung and knocked her way into it in the early hours of ihis morning, ‘The Clanricarde had not veen eager to accommodate her, but she had. luggage and she had money and a friendly policeman had stood at her shoulder while she parleyed with the night-porter. “Tn fact,” said Barbara to herself, “there is nothing of the stray eat about me and I’m not going to mew to order. Not for anybody.” She hadslept only a few hours but she felt refreshed; ‘cool and clear sighted, Somehow she bad come to @ conclusion and hammered out @ purpose. She rose and made an unhurried toilet. She knew that ber outfit became her when she tmspected herself in the mirror and she knew it again when she entered the breakfast-room. People turned to watch her seat herself and the headwaiter attended to her in per son. After breakfast she found the writing room and sat straight down | to the letter which had composed: itself in her mind without, appar ently, thought or effort on her part. When it was written she saw no @ause to alter a line of it. It was to Farrell Armitage. “I was in your house last night and I he:rd what you said when you watched Mark. You sald ‘Shows him up pretty plainly’—but I think it is you who are shown up, I think it is you who are shown to be more @espicable, far, than Mark, “Our bargain was not that you uld ‘show him up.’ Mark is weals end inexperienced in spite of his mature manner and it is easy to lead him into indulging tho worst, in- stead of the best, that fs in hini. Last night proves nothing, Our bargain was that for a year you would take him and give him every chance to become independent—in- dependent of any kind of help he could possibly want from me. Per- haps you saw that what you set out fo do is not possible and so, in stead, you betrayed him into vul- garity so as to make me hate bim, “I don’t hate him for being as he was last night. 1 feel more than ever that he needs me to get him back to what sanity and dignity be had before you took him away. I shall marry him as soon as it can be arranged. You have broken your part of the bargain. Now I break mine—Barbara Quentin.” She sealed and addressed the let ter and took it out to the main hall. “Please have this sent at once by special messenger.” She put on hat and furs, went out and found a telephone box, As soon as she was in communication with adding—“Please put me: straight through to him It is very im- portant that I should speak to him at once.” “Mr, Lodely 1s probably stn | asleep, madam.” “E can’t help that, He must wake up.” She waited for what seemed a very long time, Then Mark’s voice said, so abruptly that she started: “ft told you that you were not to ring me up any more before mid- ” “What's that?” she exclaimed. “You ate Patsy, aren't your” | seeccecesacceaasecescon: | Mark’s voice was drowsy. “This is Barbara speaking, Mark.” “Barbara! Good heavens, [ thought you were in ‘Toxeter!” This she sensed to be false. She said steadily “I want to see you immediately.” “Well, why waste time ‘pong me? Pm in bed, I can’t refuse to gee you, except by hiding under the: bedclothes.” “You must please get up and take }@ taxi toto. the porch of the Na tional Gallery. 1 shall be waiting for you, We can have lunch to- gether somewhere, later on.” “T never lunch.” Barbara, hesitated. In what she had come, to call the old days she would at this point have humored him or conceded her point. But that had grown impossible to her. “We can decide about lunching later. I shall expect you to meet ine.” There was silence. After a mo- meit a voice asked whether she had | finished, please, and she realized that Mark had rung off. She gave him five minutes, then | got through to the house again and again insisted on being put into communication with him. Unless Mark took off his receiver, this game might well go on all day. “Hello?” Mark had not. expected her to persist, evidently. “I shall go on ringing up this house until I hear that you have started, Mark.” “But why don’t you come here, Barbara? Beautiful, obstinate Bar bara—" “But I prefer not to. I won't walt longer than an hour. I sball find a telephone box and ring you up again | if you aren’t at the National Gal- lery by eleven.” ‘his time ‘tt was she who rang off. She believed that he would be there. She set out on foot for their meet- ing-place. It was a lovely Novem- ber day, warm as spring in the sunshine, keemly cold fn the shad- | ow. She swung eastwards, enjoy- ing, in spite of her preoccupations, the sights and sounds of what she | had always in ber childhood called ‘ London Town. It was a relief to have made up her mind about Farrell Armitage once and for all. The mam was | cheat. He had‘aid down the rules ot contest and had gone outside them. No doubt he had built up his fortune in just such ways. Well, that was no concern of hers. Her concern was Mark's safety; what old fashioned peoplé-would call his soul, (Copyright. 1982, Julia Cleft-Addams) Barbara Nas a strange conversa es tomorrow, with one whonr she joven, Soseosecesovece ” THE ARTMAN PRESS PRIN TING IN THE CITIZEN BLDG. —20e WEEKLY | Three Residents Of New Jersey Arrive From Cuba For Fishing Locally Walter Winney, district attor- ney; Walter Kinzley, city elec- | trician; William Schaaf, clerk; ef Hackensacx, N.

This transition covers twenty- /five years of Frisco Jenny’s life, |from the time she is an innocent jgirl of seventeen until she becomes 4 woman of maturity. There is no |Yapid change from innocence to jerime, but the character of Frisco idenny is shown to grow gradually ‘harder as she fights her way to the| leadership of the vice ring to the old Barbary Coast of San Fran- cisco. Concurrent with her develop- (ment of spititual callousness comes {the slow aging process of @ wom- an growing to maturity. To depict this day by day change requires the utmost in skilled artistry and| is a tribute to Miss Chatterton’s vare talent. It also ealled for the greatest skill on the part of the jmake-up department to show the gradual change in facial expres- sion and figure. The role is quite different from ‘any that Miss Chatterton has re- jcently depicted but is not dissimi- jlar to some of her former screen portrayals, such as “Madame X,” im which she made one of her most |striking suceesses. “Friseo Jenny” is a highly dramatic story of a |woman, keeper of a notorius re- |sort, who does not taesitate to com- mit murder, yet whose mother love jis so great she sacrifices her own |life to save her son from the know- ledge of her shame. In the supporting cast are Don- ald Cook, James Murray, Louis !Calhern, HaHam Cooley and Pat | O'Malley. The sereen play is by Wilson Mizner and Robert Lord. Teewas directed by William A.
