But now Iris learns that the uncle and aunt back in Persia, Pa., aimost forgotten in the whirl of events, are both ill. She tells Phina She must go home, and Phina is furious that she is willing to lose 80 geod an opportunity to “break in.” Chapter 24 UNCLE WILL ‘Oo says Allan Beckley planning to give a dinner for you,” Phina went on. “You can’t miss that.” “He was just going to set the date when I told him I had to go.” Phina spoke with controlled an- noyance “Tris, do you realize just who and what Allan Beckley is? So far as there is any genuine society left in New York, ne is at the very heart and powerhouse of it. You have the fnersdible luck to into him practically as you come into the city, and to have him immediately plan to give you a dinner-party; and you say, ‘I'm sorry, sir, but my uncle Las the grippe, ye to go home!’” “Lam sor Phina, arm toa n in the Honora get him.” Who or what she meant Iris did aot k feta peared “Get ora, Whe news that she had the number, Phina roze and sauntered to the sound- proof telephone in the next room. Shortly she came back. “I have Will on the wire. He says he is per- iectly well, and he thinks it would be foolish for you to break up your engagements and all our plans by coming back now. But you'd better talk to him yourself.” “Mo dear little girl,” said her uncle's kind, precise voice when the first exclamations were over, “you musin’t think of returning and los. fn ur educz tional advantages. e 1ustn’t waste Josie’s money,” he went on. “Only tell me, are you well and happy and having a good time?

He gave her, indeed, a sort of little-brotherly relationship which she found was his with most girls; a small-boy-privileged air. Camilla Wendell, came to be Iris’s most frequently met friend. Iris had the house to herself, with occasionally Owen, in the afternoons she was not riding or at dancing class. It was delightful | and incredibly effortless. A little group got into the habit of mak.ng it a rendezvous: Dicky milla, one or two other girls. “Com- ing in for tea. Do have those little toasted things,” over the telephone; or, “Bringing a crowd. Tell Honora not to stint the bacardi—” “As if it was a clubhouse!” Ca nilla said angrily to Ir.s one day. “I adore it!” Iris said. “It’s like the stories I was brought up on, of how the Lannings used to keep open house. If anybody interesting or fa- mous came to Persia, they were al- ways entertained there; and there were always people in for dinner— and coming and going.” She lauged. “Bsuppcose it was one reason we lost some of the money we did lose.” “It isn’t at all like that,” Camilla her brows knitting. She looked almost distinguished, still and straight in the alf light, Iris thought, but why need she be cross tout it? And then a wild cry rose from the other end of the room. KIS, hey, Iris! Some of these dumbbells want to go to the movies to see Mae West, and we want to go-on over to Tony’s. Make ‘em see reason.” “I couidn’t make anybody in this rcom see reason!” she said, laugh- ing. “And I have to dine at home, anyhow. Fight it out the best you can.” Presently they were gone, and Honora reentered to air the room d collect the glasses. The twa 8 drifted up to Iris’s own room. “Maybe I can get 2 little painting dcne before it’s time to go out with Phina,” Iris said. She knew Camilla was happiest when ore didn’t focus on her. She went over to the window jsnd began to paint. It was a minia- ture of Phina, partly from a photo graph and partly from moments snatched from Phina’s busy life. “Abou. this gang,” Camilla began again. “Oh, please don’t, Camilla.” “All zight.... Who taught you to do all the things you can do?” “My father and aunt and uncle. 1 lived with three people who hadn’t much to amuse them except giving me lessons.” Camilla relaxed into the soft chair for a minute, then straightened her shoulders in the perfectly-fitting dark crepe that, when she sat prop erly, triumphed over her awkward “Think of doing what you like to ao,” she said passionately. “I can’t ever remember doing anything I | really enjoyed since I was born.
