Goodale’s place was the most tentious in Vickersport. She it a staff of nine servants.

She ran down the steps and along the walk, the breeze whip- ping her fragile frock. She leaned ack against the rail and looked at the stars. Then her arms felt cold and she turned to go back. She took a step and halted; her heart in her mouth. There on the back steps of the club, peering into the :oom through the window where she | had sat, was a single, furtive fig- | ure. A long, lanky figure with a hat pulled over its face.

The colony went to Mrs. le’s large parties and invit- ed her to theirs—sometimes. She wasn't yet accepted. Perhaps in ten or fifteen years— When she had gone out and Cec- fly was still struggling with her new hair-do, trying to make it roll up and not out, Laura said, “I really loathe myself for gossiping but Nora Goodale would get some- where quicker if she wouldn’t al- ways be so flamboyant. Did you notice her necklace?” Cecily said she hadn’t. “Just a little platinum chain and an emerald drop that must be worth a fortune. Not exactly what Mrs. Brewster would consider de figueur for a simple Yacht Club dance.” A blast of music greeted them as ay cones the dressing-room door. Philip rose from a chair near the dressing-room. “I’ve never danced with you, Cecily,” he said. “Are you terribly good? “Practically Pavlova,” she said modestly. “But you'll have to @ance with the two of us. . , .” She turned around to include Laura. Laura had gone. She fitted smoothly into Philip’s arms and they glided off, fallin, into perfect rhythm. “You are...” said. “I am what?” She was thinking: Glide smoothly on this beautiful floor. I wonder now Locke dances, Til bet he can’t negotiate a turn without knocking into two other couples. He’s just the kind of a man who couldn’t dance. “Perfect,” Philip said. Cecily had forgotten what she had asked him. It didn’t make any difference whether a man could dance well or not. You didn’t spend all your life dancing. At least the Cecily Stuarts didn’t. General Harboard cut in. “Guess these young fellows car’t corner the prettiest girl in the room,” he said gallantly and swung Cecily off her feet. Cecily, making an effort to keep her balance and feeling not a little like a storm-tossed craft, devoted oe to keeping an even The dance was a long one and there were no young men who @ared to cut in on the General. After they'd cavorted, hopped, skipped and careened around the Toom a seemingly endless number of times the music came to an end and Cecily disentangled her tulips from the General’s old-fashioned watch-chain. “That was great,” he panted. “Ti claim another dance.” “It was fun,” Cecily said aloud. Under her breath she said, “Not if I know it, sir!” Freed of the General, Cecily found herself instantly claimed by 2 procession of the younger men. She danced for a solid hous with- out sitting down. She finally gave up when she was dancing with one of the Penny ys. “One more twirl, Jim, and I'll have housemaid’s knee. Let's sit this one out and you go get me a nice long, cool drink, please.” 5 adel walked their way off the floor and went into the trophy room where cooling drinks were being served. It was chilly there. Jim Penny said, “I'll get your wrap. Hold this table—I'll be back in a jiffy.” “You'd better take my check. ~All polo coats look alike.” Over the top of her frosted glass Gecily’s eyes sought Laura. She hadn't seen her dancing and she didn't see her anywhere about. “She's probably holding hands with the smitten medico,” Jim Penny offered. He folded Cecily’s coat over her chair. “I say, that re- minds me, I've asked Mrs. Fernan- dez for this next dance. Where'’ll I take you, Cecily?” “Just leave me,” Cecily im- sapend and wriggled her toes in sandals. “My feet need a rest.” “Sure it’s okay?” course, it is. I want to give 4 feet a rest and if I go back I'll into the arms of the General or the indefatigable Grandpa Mac- Donald.” Cecily finished her drink, put her on a table and walked ‘ough the French windows ling to return at once. Back of the clubhouse it was deserted. And breathlessly beautiful. The Fartive Figure out music was muted there. The night | al was alive with beauty, the trees stirring in a September breeze, The dock running down from the clubhouse was a shadowy skel- eton in the cag ay A tempting wath to walk.
