Miss Ella had unweariedly passed on to her niece everything that in her own more accomplished and literate 1ge money could buy or art suggest for the brilliant young Ella Lanning, who had intended to be @ singer. Iris’s unmodern education com- prised fluent French and Italian, the ability to play well the yellow-keyed old family piano, and a singing voice upon which Miss Ella had lavished all she knew of her own “voice cul- ture” of a good though old-fashioned scaool. “You'll need accomplishments, dress with,” Iris thought as she swung along in the dusk with her armsful of “golden rain.” She began todaydream again: per- haps somebody would be at Kay’s when‘shé..sang her old-fashioned songs that,people laughed over s perkaps she'd get a paying engage- ment at some house in Philadelphia. Perhaps it would end with her doing it regularly, earning money enough to buy ‘herself and her uncle all the things‘she wanted. ... She began to sing as she came up thé‘negiected old drive, under the old-fashioned portico. She had lin- gered so long that a half hour had passed; it was quite dark. She was singing one of the songs she would do at Kay’s. It was a song of an older day, a funny old thing of the seventies that had been a show- piece of her grandmother's: “Just as sure as it is half past eight Someone's tapping at the garden gate...” It was her signal to Uncle Wil- liam. She knocked on the big front door. “Let me in, let me in, Uncle Wil- Mam! I haven't any free hands.” ER uncle's slow foot and tapping crutch .trod down the unseen hall an¢ a gaslight wakened. She ran through the ‘opened door, laughed. kissed him above her bright-colored load. “Oh, I'm late,” she said, “but you can’t think how heavy young trees are! And I met a young man—oh!” She stopped. She éolored all over SPORTS BY JOVE ed by the members, it is csecnnstet ly requested that every member make it a point to attend.

Gentlemen like them,” she tad said invariably over all the years {ris could recall. As invariably ber father had added gayly but insistent- ly, “Iris isn’t to marry. 1 want her all to myself.” None of it had seemed very imme- diate to Iris. Her young vitality «nd strength made living a pleasure in itself, sv long as nothing immedi atély annoying came along, like a party she couldn’t have good clothes for, to make the dark side of the pic- ture more real than the bright one; the gurden, the loving old aunt and uncle, the library books, the piano to play and sing at, and all the vague belief in a lovely and fortunate fu- ture, with the right lover, gentle, gracious, magnificent to everyone but her; the lover partly out of books. a little out of movies, but more frum old stories of her grand- motuer’s glories and adorers. There were town boys and there were moments when her father and aunt had relaxed guard, and she had been nade love to in brief awkward phrases; there were boys who by old Uncle William’s connivance stole off with her now and again to movies, to a ball game in Philadelphia. But they were not the Prince. T WAS more curious than they knew. Aunt Ella insisted on “con: | tact with society,” “ease of man- ner.” There were invariable teas and suppers to whict. she went with her aunt; Mrs. Cadwallader’s ancient house, Miss Deborah Wayne's, Mrs. Josiah Worrell’s. It never struck Aunt Ella that these might not amuse Iris as much as they did her- self. It occurred to only one person —Uncle William. He it was who planned Iris’s small escapes, who, in spite of Ella's firm hold oa all money for the use of Law- rence, Iris’s father, squeezed tiny sums out now and again to buy Iris of rayon stockings. her, so that it felt like a fire. There, towering easily behind her uncle’s stooped black shoulder, stood the man to whom, supposing she would never see him again, she had told more of her affairs than she ever had told anyone in her life before. “Thir,” said Uncle William’s m‘ld slightly-apprehensive voice, “is Mr. Black. He is going to board with us, darling. This is my niece, Iris, Mr. Black.” “I've met Mr. Black,” said Iris in a choked furious voice. “I— Oh, you hadn't any right to!” The bright load of blossoms crashed at the feet of the two as- tonishe¢ men; Iris was gone, flying up the steep old stairs. “Dear me,” said mild shabby courteous Uncle William. “I must apologize for my niece’s excitement. It isn’t at all like her.” “I think it is!” said Morgan Black internally. Aloud he replied politely, “I suppose she was startled at see- ing a stranger.” “Sae is a very brilliant girl, and it is possible she is becoming a trifle temperamental,” said her uncle, as if this idea were new. “She has nev- er behaved like that before.” Morgan Black smiled instead of replying; which pleased Uncle Wil- liam. Since Aunt Ella had decreed the taking of a boarder, this silent young man was better than most. Iris, meanwhile, had taken cover in her bedroom. It was large, like all the rooms. It had an old-fashioned brass bed, hideous but comfortable, with a mended white honeycomb counterpane, A handsome overelaborate ma- hogany bureau of the late seven- ties, with the rocker and marble topped table which belonged to it and a dejected golden-oak morris | chair which didn’t, stood out against modernity.
