FRIDAY, JANUARY 24, 1936. Savin MIND THE LADY ~ NEVER MIND THE LADY = NEVER MIND THE LADY - NEVER MIND THE LADY NEVER MIND THE LADY EVER MIND THE LADY sven nee WE AOY SYNOPSIS: Allatre West, proud, unattainable, has at last succumbed to her love for Terry Willett. She even has begged him not to return to his South American fob but to stay in New York with her. And he has refused. Allaire has killed the time since Terry left with George Foz, who ts slated to be attaché at the Court of St. James. Now, at the horse show. Foz is asking Allaire to marry him, and Allaire is confess- ing that she does not believe she ever will be able to forget Terry. Chapter 35 BREAKUP H, darling—” said Allaire. Her voice seemed to catch. “Oh, darling,” she began again, “Don’t you think I've thought of this? I'll marry you—if you want me to, only—” “What?” said Fox. “Only what?” “Only, George darling, 1 don’t think I'll ever get over that fighting engineer terror. I've tried to, heaven knows | have. But,” there was a faraway look in her eyes, “somehow the note still rings.” He thought of that thin gold ciga- ret case with the vanity mirror set in platinum on the cover, and the detectives demanding to see the girl behind the door in Willett’s hotel room. Maybe that ringing note would be stifled if Allaire knew about that. Her pride had lowered its colors once, but this— Fox was suddenly convinced that if she knew about this, she would get over the memory of that striding son of the engineer- ing camps. And she deserved to know. Her future and his were at Stake. She couldn’t go on like this. He was silent so long that the girl looked at him anxiously. “Don t Late me, George. I couldn't stand it.” “Good Lord, Allaire, why should I hate you because you can't forget Terry Willett? But—” “That’s the second time you've said ‘but.’” “Did 12” said Fox. Well, I forgot what i was going to say.” He smiled grimly. ‘It couldn't have been im- portant.” They decided to drive back to Westlands and Allaire went to change from her riding clothes. Fox waited for her on the verancah. Quite a few of the Show crowd adjourned to Westlands that after- noon, a tide of peuple eddying around tables on terrace and lawn, swirling through the house; backgammon and bridge going full blast, buffet tea and hors d'oeuvres served both on the lawns and in the taproom, cock- tails being shaken up in a dozen places. Fox was absorbed by a bevy of girls and departed with a_ half- hearted grin. Allaire looked after bim a moment and then went into Ray’s private study. Ray was confer- ring with Blythe, the majordomo of the household, on plans for the eve- ning. He dismissed the butler as she came in. “Come on, baby,” he said, “get tidied up. You may have a tremen- dous board to pr de over tonight.” “Ray,” she said idly, “what would you say if I told you I was going ing away? Where?” “South America.” He stared, astounded. “What the devil do you want to go there for? I thought George was tak- ing up his duties in London. Has he been shifted back?” “No, he’s still London-bound.” “Then what—?” He stopped and regarded her suspicivusly. “Don’t tell me you've called it no dice with him too.” “We both called it no dice. Only decent thing to do.” “And when did this South Ameri- can idea pop up?” HE shrugged. “It's been in my mind for a long time, only 1 couldn't quite bring myself to it before. But I've felt like @ person with one arm ever since he left, oh, sort of lonely and uncertain and there's no use trying to kid my- self any longer. | should have gone after him a long time ago, but noth- ing is going to stop me now.” “You're talking about Willett, of course?” Bhe nodded. “Of course.” Ray started to smile. And that Uttle smile lasted while he lit a cig- ret and leaned back, viewing her enigmatically through a cloud of smoke. “Allaire,” he said, “I’ve tried to warn you. You're heading for fog. You don’t know anything about Willett.” “I know enough.” He threw back his handsome head and laughed. “Allaire, the unattainable. Un- touched by scandal, possessed of the pride and ideals of a goddess—" She started to rise. He sobered quickly. “Wait a minute,” he said. “I owe "by David Gare: NEVER MIND THE LADY men aa ee TE LADY this much to you. To both you and George before it’s too late.” He opened a drawer of his desk and took out several typewritten sheets clipped together. “Ever read a detec- tive agency report? Very detailed. Makes it interesting. This is the re port on the search for you when LaMarr was pulling his blackmail stunt. Take a look at it—page four particularly.” He pushed it across the desk to her. “Ray, I’m not interested—” “All right, I'll read it to you my- self.” He picked up the report, ruffled through to a certain page, and leaned back. “I had them looking for Wil- lett,” he explained. “1 thought he could give some clue to your where abouts. This is an excerpt: “Willett was located in the afore- mentioned hotel at six-forty in the evening. All signs pointed to the presence of a woman in the room. Willett admitted the fact, but denied that it was the party sought. On Mr. George Fox’s advice and responsi- bility the investigation was not pressed. A woman’s cigaret case was | taken, however, for identification and possible evidence.’ ” He paused. “You never knew that, did you?” “I don’t,” she sald deliberately, “believe it. You and your wee de- tectives.” “No?” He rummaged in the drages again and brongat out a thin Bold cigaret case. ¥ “You'll find this described im the | back of the report under detgfied’ evidence. This is the one they found. It was left with me and | didn’t fnow who owned it. But,” he added posi- tively, “now that | think about ‘t, I could give a pretty good guess. You | see, we got in touch with Willett | through Puff Harrington—” HE started. “Carolyn—! Say, you're a fool. That little—” “Chaser?” he finished. “Well, we'll see.” He rang for Blythe and gave direc- tions to see if Miss Harrington had arrived as yet and if so to ask her to drop in and see him right away. Then he put the case in prominent view on the desk. He was getting set | for a Field Day. Allaire sat numbed through all these elaborate stage preparations. And Fox had been so non-committal about how Terry Wil- lett came to be mixed up in the LaMarr business. But then, Fox was a friend of Terry’s. Puff came in shortly afterward with a cocktail glass in each hand. “Hello, Ray beloved,” she greeted. “Hello, Allaire. Look what I’ve brought.” A sense of repugnance at seeing her trapped swept over Allaire. She picked up the cigaret case and held it out to Puff. “Did you lose this, Carolyn?” she said impulsively. Puff’s eyes widened in delight. “Why, where on earth did you find that? I wondered where I lost it.” She set down a glass and took it gratefully. “Thanks so much, Allaire. Allaire knew her father’s eyes were on her ironically. “I understand,” she said calmly, “that you know a friend of mine— Terry Willett.” “Terry?” exclaimed Puff. Her eyes rested on Allaire, first in surprise, then in quick alive reminiscence. “I should say I do know Terry. He and I did the rounds, had a big time in New York. Did the rounds and ended up in Night Court at dawn. He can fight like anything—” “Yes,” said Allaire absently, “like anything.” : She bit ker lip, theny isiculeal Bd cused herself and left pias ee “What's the matter with her?” Puff inquired. Ray seated himself on thé the desk. “Don’t worry about Allaire,” advised. “And thanks, 4 saved her from making a fool ‘of her- self. But, baby,” he grinned and shook a finger under her nose, “what I know about you—” Luckily, dinner under Ray’s roof, although beginning formally, seldom stayed that way. People were always dropping in, and those at the table would get up and wander out be tween courses like intermissions be- tween dances. Allaire thanked her stars for that. She appeared at dinner to take her place at her father’s wifeless board, but having started things off, she found it no great task to leave the dining room and go up to her apart- ment. She dropped into a chair and stared out of the window. Hum of conversation from the terraces be- low, the sound of motors in the drive and laughter—and Puff Harrington dancing from one man to another.
