THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1940 Ou YESTERDAY: Sue wants to fall in love with Bob, but can’t. Meanwhile Patsy’s extravagances Gre creating a strained situation in the Mavenport home. Chapter 13 Jealousy ss | Mf not going to have you charg- ing things,” Allen told Patsy. I increased your allowance last month—though you'd said you had laid in your whole season’s outfit; and yet here is a perfect sheafof bills. It would hurt the firm if I got behind with my payments. Even if I could square it with my conscience—with my sense of the fitness of things—to let you squander money like this, I couldn’t let people think business was so bad for Monroe, Davenport and Long that one of the firm couldn’t pay cash for his wife’s clothes. Unless you give me your word—and keep it! that you'll not charge another thing. I shall be compelled to go around to the various shops and explain that I will not be responsible for what you buy.” eloved BY LOUISE PLATT HAUCK hasn’t; she'll never have. Sue, what is to be done?” he finished hopelessly. On an evening in late June, Bob Trenton, about to descend from his car across the street from where the young Davenports lived, was astonished to see Sue come out, suitcase in hand, and move toward a taxicab which stood in front of the entranee. Bob was just in time to halt the driver as his car began to move. “Hi!” the young man yelled breathlessly. And to Sue: “What on-earth? Have you forgotten you have.a-date for me this evening?” Sue, he noticed, was white and troubled. ° “I did forget, Bob. I’m terribly sorry.” “Going out of town?” ‘ She shook her head, sending a warning glance at the patiently listening driver. “Then hop out and I'll take you where you want to go.” He paid the interested man, tipping him liberally; helped Sue out and swung her suitcase after her.

Brinson He gave her glance for glance, and her eyes drooped beneath his steady gaze. “I would—I will, if you make it necessary for me, Pats!” She shrugged, and the subject dropped. There were no more bills charged at the store, and for a time life flowed along smoothly for Allen. Then a new order of things set in. “Sue, honey, you won’t mind sleeping on the couch for a night or two, will you?” Patsy said coaxingly one evening at the din- ner table. “There's a friend of mine coming from Chicago and there isn’t a place in the house for her.” “Take her in with you, Pats,” Allen said quickly. “I'll sleep on the couch. I don’t mind a bit, and it’s asking a lot of Sue to leave her own room.” His sister told him affectionately that she was glad enough to do it, and the matter seemed to end there. Grace Griffith, a plumb woman somewhat older than Pats, arrived that night and took calm possession of Sue's room. Two nights passed, a third, a fourth, and Grace made no suggestion of terminating her visit. Sue was obliged to sit up until all hours, since Patsy had people in to meet her friend. She dressed in the bath- room, sighed at the litter of spilled powder, smeared lipstick and rolls of blond hair on her dressingtable. She was taking advantage of the guest's absence late one afternoon to tidy her possessions when her brother came in. “Where's Pats?” Sue looked up from the fresh cover she was putting on her table. “Taking Grace for a drive.” “Your car?” She nodded. “1 was glad to let her have it. Allen, truly I was.” “Even after crumpling both fenders the other day?” Sue sighed a little. The car was a constant source of friction in the little family. Patsy drove very badly, but was bitterly resentful of the slightest criticism. Sue was proud of her little car and hated to have its beauty marred. But she had learned that anything was beiter than to be the cause of a quarre! between her brother and his wife. “Pats say anything about Grace leaving soon?” “Not a word. I think she'll stay another week anyhow. | know they plan to go to Barbara's lunch and that’s not until next Thurs- day.” HE BEGAN to pace the small room, his head bent, his hands in his pockets. “Sue, this is terribly hard on you. Not just having Grace keep you out of your room, I mean: everything—the whole arrange- mefit. Would it help if we took a lager apartment—a house?” folded her hands on the edge of the table, looked down,at them to hide gathering tears. Allen, her adoted brother. was unhappy. In less than six months after his mar- riage he was tacitly admitting it was a mistake. “I think—” she said when she was sure of her voice—“that the only thing that will—help at all, Buddy, is for me—to live by my- self. All—all the things that upset you are done—done to make you see I’m in the way. Even the bills iast March; Pats didn’t really want those clothes—not enough to make you angry about them, at any rate. She wanted you to see that there isn’t enough—enough of anything, Allen dear. for her and me both: enough money, enough room, enough . .. love.” Two months, even two weeks ago, he would have denied this; sharply and with resentment. It made her young heart sick for him that he nodded quietly now. “She’s jealous of you, Sis. been from the first, I think. cause you're . . . because you have qualities and advantages she A Mistake Has Be- ° To ee Ser =o >s090e0ccss000 U.S. ator Hattie W.

The situation got too much for you at home, didn’t it? Patsy went alittle too far this time and you thought it best to get out.” “How—how do.you. know, Bob?” “How do I know anyhing about you, Sue? I do—that’s all. And it doesn’t take much of a detective to know that Pats has been deter- mined to get you out of the place since the actual day Allen brought her home. I suppose she put the poor old lad on the spot today? Tried to force him to choose be- tween his wife and his sister--that sort of thing?” She nodded, wet eyes. “And you took matters in your hands and left without forcing a decision upon your brother? You would, of course. What puzzles me is that Allen actually let you go!” Kind Friend “HE DPDN’T know,” she said in a strangled voice. “I slipped out while he and Patsy were still arguing about it. | couldn’t endure another word.

Maggie will still mopping at come with me, of course—luekily | she was-in her room tonight and didn’t hear the row.” Bob had headed his car away from town and now they were bowlii along the boulevard which led to the Lovers’ Lane of Eugene Field fame. As they turned into the “leafy aisles where Cupid smiles,” he said: “Sue, I don’t want | to take advantage of the situation, but—aren’t- you ever going to marry me? You do care for me, ! you know—a little, anyway!” She smiled at him, laid a small cold hand over his on the wheel. “More than a little, Bob dear! A great deal, in fact. But not enough—enough to—” “To marry me? But if I think it is enough, Sue—If I’m willing to take any risk you may think there, Is. . time now. Long enough, at any rate, for you to discount your idea that it was a sentimental impulse with me, that it wouldn’t last. Long enough, too, to get ahead of any other men you might—might have cared for.

ORDERED, that this Order be published once a week in The Key West Citizen, a newspaper published in Monroe County, Florida, for four consecu- anywise stances which influenced me, not— {| ceeded: with ex parte. | tive weeks. jads.combined. Id take liberal ispace in northern papers and magazines to point out a few |things about this state that we jnow leave unsaid, but which |would be better TOLD. |. I'd point out to prospective tourists that along with the pleasures this state had to offer, |their journey over our highways would be dangerous because we |hold the woods cow sacred and that while enjoying our zephyrs they must likewise dodge our heifers. | A few ads like that would go a long way toward bringing our |home folks to realize how back- | ward we are in this respect. At | the same time it would be so con- trary to the usual appeal found in advertisements that I’m inclined to believe it would leave a fav- orable impression on the reader and ‘react to Florida’s good. While I told them of the many interesting and delightful attrac- tions of Miami, Jacksonville, Tampa, Pensacola, Orlando, St. Petersburg and other points, I think I’d point out that all these charming cities were in- fested with loan sharks and sal- jary buyers whom the good peo- \ple of Florida permitted to prey {on the helpless, the weak and the |ignorant, making small loans and charging as high as 300 percent interest. Of course, I’d explain | that the racketeers operating such | institutions maintained a power- |ful lobby in Tallahassee and so far no Florida legislature had ever been strong enough to op- pose it. I am inclined to believe that a single page advertisement in the Saturday Evening Post along |that line would cause an uproar | within our state that the next | | | Coa of. i ;the wrapper in which it came so jthat I could publicize the shipper |through the press of the state so \that the people of Florida might iknow just who was to blame. | Whén it came to my attention {that any Florida community was so short-sighted that during the tourist season it made a practice of gouging the tourist and winter visitors by advancing rents and hotel rates beyond all reason, I think I’d advise the public of the fact and call to their attention jother Florida communities where they could find a welcome and not be mistreated. ! I realize that in so doing I yprobably would be the most thoroughly disliked person in the entire state. Before I got well started on ha screwy cam- paign I would probably be boiled in oil, tarred and feathered, and Tun out of the state on a rail. But nevertheless, such a state ad- vertising program based on hon- esty, sincerity and fair play would live in history to the ever- ing credit and glory of Flor- It would keep no one away but on the contrary would so startle and impress the reader jthat folks would flock here in greater numbers, for the world likes a guy who puts his cards on the table, who shoots square and plays the game. Florida is a great state. Her people are hospitable and kind. She is fundamentally square and honest; all the bad that might be jsaid about her could never off- set that which is good.

Was he going to force a choice on her to- ! night—as Patsy had done? She fapeed her hands tightly in her ap. But at last he turned and smiled at her, the gay understanding smile he kept just for her. ‘It’s all right, dear. Of course you mustn’t decide tonight. We'll drive a bit and then I'll take you to the hotel, and tomorrow or the next day—whenever you feel up to it—we'll talk about the future.” The exquisite relief of it told her how great had bees ah a That moment glimpse of a life with- out his.
