MONDAY, MARCH 4, 1940 Chapter One 19 George Street E WERE having luncheon that day at a resplendent restaurant on Park Avenue. “A tan would be awfully becoming to you,” Toby said irrelevantly as he sipped his cof- fee. “It is the natural complement to blonde hair.” I ate the last bite of pastry re- Iuctantly and looked across at him. “I have no doubt, Mr. Maug- ham, but if you’ve met up with a newspaper lately you must have noticed that the weather, in- stead of staying in its proper place on page 23, has moved up to the page 1 headlines. This, my young friend, is the worst winter in fifty-five years and chances of getting a tan are slim.” Toby lighted a cigarette, blow- ing out the smoke lazily. “Swell!” he said. “I've been wanting to meet someone who remembers the winter of ’88. How was it?” “For twenty-one days we were entirely without meat or drink.” “It did wonders for ‘our figure,” he said smoothly. “But seriously, Chris, give'up thé idea of this new. studio and. let’s skip’ for Bermuda.” “With the sunburn as bait,” I murmured, He straightened his shoulders, annoyed. “With me as bait,” he shouted. “You may not know it, but I’m proposing to you for the last time.” _ I took a long drink of expensive ice-water. “The people at the next table are enchanted,” I said. “But couldn’t I refuse you for the last time in the privacy of a taxi?” Toby glared at the people, at me, then called for the check and I looked about with regret. “This,” I told myself, “is the last time you’re going to lunch in luxury for many a day, Chris- tine Howarth.” And for a moment, completel: replete, I weakened. Life wit! Toby would be so simple since there was the Maugham money to keep the paths shoveled, but whenever I thought of marrying him _I got a queer feeling that the Maugham money would com- pletely inundate the Howarth ambition and that was to paint one really good picture. I had just come back from Paris ten days before, full of am- bition and strong resolutions, But I'd been away from New York too long. The city seemed strange and I felt a little foreign=and be- wildered at the changes. If it hadn’t been for Toby I'd have taken the first ship back to Havre. “I don’t understand you,” Toby said a few minutes later as he slammed the taxi door and sat down beside me. I nodded. “I’ve been having the same trouble with myself.” The taxi raced down Park Ave- e, skidding crazily over the ice, sing a truck by a squeak. “You still persist in moving down to that god-awful neigh- od,” Toby said between tis I cleared my throat and told him yes in a small voice, with- out daring to look at him. The weather and the Maugham money were getting me again. Werrode in silence until the cab pulled up in front of my hotel. “Tm sailing on Friday,” Toby said. “I shall send you carnations,” I said, growing weaker by the moment. “You'll regret this,” Toby pre- dicted darkly. “Probably,” said I. “The fare is forty-five, Buddy,” said the driver. And I jumped out. of the taxi, turning my back om coral beaches and expensive luncheons. Exacily one week later Toby’s malevolent prophecy was fulfilled. Huddiled in a wicker chair on the sidewalk in front of my new home I was literally frozen with regret. For weeks New York had been smothered with snow and chat- tering its teeth in zero weather, but of all days I had chosen the coldest to move. The temperature shivered around zero until three in the afternoon, then dropped be- mn CASA MARINA NOTES COSTA TAneseoesesen CASA MARINA DOCK, which Thursday produced a record tuna. n Fri brought forth f the record fish of the sea agair so FIRST BOAT to come in’ was the “Marv B”. piloted by*.,Ted ova, and the anglers were C. mith of Rochester amd Carl ® catgh Sincladed) s. of which” Mr! -d in the largest, Also included w hich are very rare, g brought into this year.

When my furniture and I land- ed at 19 George Street, Mr. Kim- ball, the owner of the house had gone out to dinner, leaving a sign in the window of his antique shop that he’d return at six-thirty. That left three-quarters of an hour to wait. He must have ex- pected me earlier in the day or forgotten that I was moving in. Whatever the misunderstanding I had no keys to the house or to the apartment, so the movers and I had to stay out on the street until he got back. Not that the men were impatient—they were being paid by the hour, and were loafing snugly in the truck with my fur- are strewn all over the side- walk, A downtown clock struek six. Half an hour more.

The street light at the corner seemed unusual- ly dim and a blur of snow in the air made the street seem even dark- er. The few people who were about padded past on the snowy sidewalk like ghosts. It seemed impossible that such a lonely, deserted place lay so near Fifth Avenue. I gave up being a brave girl and in a torment of regret thought of Toby and Bermuda. Whatever had posessed me to move to such aneighborhood? The day we called to look at the studio had been so different. George Street lay mat- ter-of-fact and peaceful in the crisp, sunny air. I'd seen an ad- vertisement in the paper and grabbed Toby and a taxi to have a look at the apartment and was tremendously impressed. The old brownstone house had obviously been a fine residence and even though it was weathered and crumbling it still had an air of distinction. The studio apartment was very attractive and I liked the white-haired landlord, Mr. Kimball. He had an amazing col- lection of antiques in his shop and I have a high regard for early American furniture, Toby said it was exactly the type of place a girl from Ohio would fall for, an unkind remark since I'd been living in Paris and hadn’t setefoot in Ohio for eight years. But in spite of that grinning slur I signed the lease and got my fur- niture out of storage. It was after half-past six now and my feet were half an hour colder when Mr. Kimball finally appeared down the street. “Why, Miss Howarth,” he called in the most surprised voice when he was still a few doors away, his eyes widening at my household goods and me littering the side- from the “Legion” with Fred Ke They had a grand day h g in 34 kingfish.

It seems as though the ladies are showing up the men these days, as Mrs DeBaun pulled in the tuna and fished | yesterday a lady brought in a sail.i walk. I'd have shouted except that my face was stiff enough to crack. A sweet picture I made, damp and bedraggled, with wisps of hair plastered against my cheeks by the snow. “This is dreadful,” he exclaimed | as he came up to me. “I wasn’t expecting you until tomorrow. Ishi, the boy who helps in the shop, is away and my niece is ill. Otherwise there would have been someone to let you in.” “I thought 1 told you I was coming today, but it doesn’t mat- ter,” I said as I crawled out of the chair, “I’ve never been so glad to_see anyone in my life.” He hurried into the vestibule, still apologizing as he unlocked the front door, and the movers, now thoroughly cold and grum- bling, bumped my furniture up the steps and into the house with more speed than care. While Mr. Kimball stood in the lower hall to superintend the moving: I warmed my hands at the fireplace in the shop. Coming into the warm room made my bones ache. Finally the men left and I went upstairs to my studio, in the rear of the second floor. The place was desolate and no warmer than the sidewalk. Apparently the maid had decided that the room needed airing, for all of the windows were wide open and the snow was drifting in over the sills. Standing in the middle of the! room, I looked about me with a wail. How could I ever make the place look habitable? The room was old-fashioned with a very high ceiling and two long studio windows in the rear. There was a tremendous red brick fireplace and another window on the east and off to the left of the living room lay a small kitchen and bathroom, I'd been so enthusiastic a week ago, and now littered with furniture and lighted by only one bulb in the ceiling the place was indescribably dreary. The freshly painted white walls looked bare and cold. I walked across the room and closed the windows, standing for a moment to look down into the dark yard. Mr. Kimball had told me that in the summer he had quite a flower garden in the large square of ground in front of the garage, but now all that I could see was an ailanthus tree, its bare branches rattling against the fire escape. Telegram From Toby I FELT awful. Looking back on the luncheon with Toby made me ache with regret. He was in Bermuda, warm and comfortable, and here I was in a strange house cold and uncomfortable. Then Mr. Kimball called up the stairway. “A telegram and a package for you. Miss Howarth.” It looks as though the men had better get busy. In addition, the party hooked 14 bonita and three mackerel. GUY CONKEY. W. E. Stein- wedell and H. T. Harrison, of Cleveland, and R. W. Gallagher, of New York, fished from the “Dac” with Paul Demeritt. They said they enjoyed every minute of the day: "bringing in 30 kings and seven bonita. * C. C. LENK and 0. C. Lenk, of Boston, fished from the “Finny” with Frank Vitzelio.

It was just a half-day party but still they brought in 12 kings. four mac- kerel and a bonita. FINAL BOAT was the “Pilot I went out into the hall. “I'm sorry the house isn’t warmer,” he said, coming upstairs briskly to hand me the envelope and an enormous florist’s box, “Patrick, the janitor is supposed to come at six o’clock to fix the furnace, but he hasn’t arrived tonight.” He smiled. “Every now and then he takes a few drinks too many and doesn’t turn up. I’m_heipless when when it comes to fixing the furnace,” he went on, “but I'll bring up some wood. Perhaps an open fire will help.” I told him that would be fine. The thought of an open fire was encouraging and I carried the box back to my room feeling a notch higher just as an attractive girl came out of the middle apart- ment, next to mine. She was Mr. Kimball’s niece. I'd met her the day I looked at the apartment. Seeing me must have been a sur- prise, because she stepped back nervously into her room, then evidently thinking better of it, came out into the hall. She had a handkerchief pressed to her mouth and was crying quietly. Without speaking to me or even glancing again in my direction she turned and ran up the stairs to the third floor, knocked on the door of the apartment above mine, then called, “Richard!” She called several times, but there was no answer so she came down- stairs and I went back into the chaos of trunks and furniture, deaving the door open for any stray heat from the hall. Immediately footsteps overhead attracted my attention. Someone was walking around in the apart- ment above, yet only a minute before when the girl knocked there had been no answer. I knew that no one had passed my door and gone upstairs since then. It was strange, I thought, then I put the box down on a trunk and tore open the envelope. The telegram turned out to be a cablegram from Toby: CABLE SUNBURN REMEDY CHEERIO TOBY I ground my chattering teeth. There he was, the wretch, smugly sprawled on the beach in Ber- muda, not content to let me freeze in peace. I glared at the apartment, regretted for the thirty-third time that day the im- pulse that led me to burden my- self with a studio and a career, and tore the string off the box. In a lovely blue pottery jar were six bright red geraniums with a card from Toby and in his scrawling handwriting he’d written: “Tene. ment flowers for the new home.” He’d gone to a lot of trouble be- fore he left to make me miserable. I sat down on the trunk and lighted a cigarette. I hadn’t the strength to start unpacking, BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT Knowleses Have Boy UP FOR EVENT NEXT SUNDAY “One of the highlights of the winter golfing season was held yesterday afternoon at the Key West Golf Club, between a team cqmposed of the winter visitors and members of the local club.

John Carbonell and his broth- er, “Specs”, received the backing of the boxing commission in their refusal to pay the purses of | Al Beauhold and Jimmy Maddox, who were thrown out of the ring last week, and this co-operation will go a long way toward stop- ping future fights that are not. on the level. Spiedel is the boy that gave Al Beauhold a lacing three weeks ago. He has been training faith- fully since that time and is in ex- cellent condition for Wednesday night. . Gonzalez, who is a native of Tampa, is always in condition. He is employed as a wood chop- per at Thompson ice plant, but for the past two weeks he has been training daily. Spiedel will outweigh Gon- zalez, but the Tampa boy will make up the deficit in experi- ence.
