SATURDAY, OCTOBER Bee le A080 1939 Meet Mr. oom cso fy Marie’ YESTERDAY: No explanations are forthcoming when Cecily and Donald find La’ 1 and~ Locke near his cabin. Cicily can’t un- derstand. Locke acts as if the sit- untion were perfectly normal. Later, Laura sends for Cecily, but tells her nothing. Chapter 33 In, The Dark ‘ECILY said,“Yesterday, I made up my mind that I had stirred up a situation out of whole cloth, imagined something important — even though I didn’t know what it was— and that it was a silly, sense- less thing to do. “1 put myself on the carpet and went at it analytically. My result- ing conclusion was that I wasn’t quite bright. I decided that 1 was as romantic as any foolish heroine of a cheap love story. Just because I didn’t know anything about the man I'd. fallen ih love. with, I clothed him with all sorts of back- grounds of a most lurid past.” “Cecily, when women fall in love, they always do that. A woman never takes a man for what he is, as she does other women; she always makes him into what she wants him. to be.” “We're getting away from the poise I wanted to tell you that, aving faced this whole thing, I finally got what I thought was the right value: a-simple situation I had made into a melodrama, And then, having decided this, all of a sudden a great big mystery—a real mystery—breaks over my head. It’s like a nightmare. No explana- tions for it.” Laura took one of Cecily’s hands into her own. “Listen to me, Cecily, T’'ve got more to lose, probably”— she was thinking of Donald—“than “tee have. I’m going to ask you to elieve me. Your hunch that there was something peculiar £38 on was intuitively correct. There is! And I’m as much in the dark as you are.” “But Locke? You said...” “I know. I said that I was bound to secrecy, and. I am. But I’m al- most as much in the dark as you are.” Cecily let her breath out in a long, patient sigh. ut, Laura, why did you say you'd turned your ankle?” “Now, Cecily, act your age! What else was there to say?” There was a moment of heavy 2 Then. Laura said with dignity, “Cecily, | won't attempt to explain anything else to you. I’m sure that me are quite well aware that I ad a good reason for not coming back to my own place last night. And that there was nothing im- proper in my not doing so. “I know it, Laura. You need not say anything more to me. May I ask you cne more question?” “Certainly.” id Locke say anything . anything personal about me? Laura wanted to give her some crumb of comfort but she an- swered honestly, “No, te didn’t. Cecily. But . whatever you're thinking, 1 don’t Want you to think,” she finished rather inco- herently. Cecily wasn’t payin: much at- tention to Laura’s last words. A eng of finality had settled’ upon er. “You're looking pretty fagged, La ra. 1 think I'll run along.” Laura asked, holding id Cecily said, ord with a handel Only A Dream A ALL of finality. An accep- tance that her dream was only a dream. Lines she had read into a blank page. Music heard where there were no notes. Face the blankness, the silence, the void, Cecily Stuart. Strange that there could” be such emptiness when there had been nothing more than a dream to occupy this now- empty space. Be a good sport abou, it, Cecily. Think with your ‘mind and not with your heart. Pay your losses with dignity and go on to some- thing el Nothing ‘stands still. You have things to do. Yeu have one business to wind up and an- other to start. Be alert. Be gay! Cecily made arrangements to have her furnishings taken to Darelea for winter stcrage, to have her stock packea to ship to New York the first of October. ae mav.e a careful inventor: mended book-backs, filed catalogued ter cards. She wrote to Hilda Froman. “Keep a weather eye out for a spot for me in our old neighbor- hood. I won't want a big place,” she wrote, “and I won’t go i fora large stock of new books. The cir- culating department and a maga- zine stand should prazice a Tea- sonable living and that’s all I want. Aunt Olivia has said that she sealing the Ailfces ochinvar my forninies here.

I’ve given poor re- turn-for-all that Aunt Olivia’ has done for me. She likes, gayety around her and I’ve done very lit- tle to. add fo it. She took a day off and asked Philip to drive her to Portland. And found, to her surprise, that she enjoyed that day. They started early in the morn= ing, arriving in time for lunch. Philip was in an entertaining mood. Cecily laughed at his sal- lies, said to herself: “If I’can en- joy myself so easily, I'll cultivate the habit. ll learn not to think of anyone but the person I’m with.” After lunch she said, “Philip, do you mind being on your own for a couple of hours? I want to go to the hairdresser, and do some shop- ping. Then, we might meet for a cocktail before we start back.” Philip protested that he would be a great help to her. Neverthe- less he went to the movies and Cecily went off by herself. She bought an everin;, dress. A wisp of a dress fashioned of scar- let’ fabric. It was a sophisticated dress, backless and simple, with a corsage of long-stemmed tulips of red and yellow thrust into the belt. It suited her mood exactly. It was a defiant sort of dress. Need For Compliments Ss carted the dress away to the haitdresser’s and, with it in mind, told the hairdresser to do something “new” with her hair, He washed, brushed, combed and set it in a roll that swept away from her face. “Mademoiselle is like a new wo- man,” he pronounced. Cecily picked up the mirror and studied herself. “I hope so,” she said. If there was anything she wanted to be, it was a new woman. Philip said he didn’t like it. “It isn’t like you,” he saic. “Have you any idea what I'm really like?” . He merely shrugged his shoul- ers. Cecily couldn’t understand why she should feel let down. She wanted Philip to pay her com ae ments. She never had before. she needed them. Her vanity had taken a blow as deep as her heart. Driving back over the ribbons of road, she stuck her hands in her’ pockets and frowned into the darkness. She thought she’d prob- ably be like the legions of women who. spend all their money on clothes and all their time think- ing up flattering remarks to make to men, making a life-long fran- tic effort to get ba¢k their self-re- spect.'She could almost hear her= self saying “Eloise, Wf think P'll have red pol- ish on my fingernails today. No, don’t like it but I’m. having din- ner tonight with a gentleman who does, What am I wearing? Black. Men do like black, don’t they? Personally I feel out of character. “... Mr. Snipswitch, you’re the great explorer, aren’t you? I’ve read every word in the newspa- pers about your discovery in the Malay country. Oh, look, there’s a cozy corner where we won’t be disturbed! Please do tell me about it in your own words. ,., Oh, must you leave?” Not on your life, Cecily Stuart! You're not going to be one of those. Besides, what makes you think you'd ever have a chance of be- ing interesting to a man? Even old Philip here—good old Philip, the life of the party, the hostess’ delight, the super-sponger, the colossal Callen — knows you haven’t got a lick of sex appeal. He’s just been using you as a prop to. get himself a soft vacation. He likes celebrities, and Aunt Olivia is & celebrity. He eats up her “dear boy” and “Philip, you're such a perfect guest!” He likes his break- fast on a tray. He just loves caviar. He likes the rugged life served up by a proper butler. He likes ice- cream in a’ drug-store. He likes picnics and doesn’t mind the ants. He likes everything so darn much he'll let you insult him as long as you don’t take his fun’ away. She thought, wickedly: I'll ask him if there’s anything he doesn’t like. She already. had an ‘answer to that. He didn’t like work. “Philip,” she said, “is there very much money in writing?” “Sometimes,” he said noncom- mittally. Cecily oe ursued the subject mali- ciously. “You:don’t mind my ask- ing, do you?” “Of course not.” Not said very cordially. “But, Philip, darling, what are we going to live on?’ Cecily shouldn’t have said that as the car rounded a turn; Philip swung the wheel too violently. “Or had you forgotten that I am you fiancée?” He laughed. id focin lew York to going back to my own apartment, so I’m leaving TWIN BILL SUNDAY AT TRUMBO FIELD PIRATES AND TROJANS IN FIRST GAME: SOX AND CONCHS IN SECOND By O.
