THURSDAY, , AUGUST 1 Lenere’s Tea p= strode into the house, shut himself in the library,| and rang up Jan's hotel. To all/ of his insistent pleading to be! put through to her, the clerk) reiterated that she had retired| and left word she was fiot to be disturbed. | Derek’s soaring spirits glided | to earth. He desired, with sudden | urgency, to do something ‘grand } and glorious and magnificent for} her. But wha.? He culled his! memory for her wishes and) words, could think of no greater | service than to once and for all) dispose of Rose Cornwall, Rose} Benton now, and remove by a} clever must figure out— this duplicate of Lenore who} threatened the happiness of Lance | and Jan and Norma. Money? Maybe. It wouldn't do to be bald; @bout it, since she was married, at least for the time being, to} Johnny. He thought about Johnny | and his ambition to have a band| of his own in a swanky night club. Night club. What about the Ciub Tunis in Manhattan? Barry Winslow, its owner was a close acquaintance of his. He eould talk | to Barry about it. And not to- morrow; now. Eluding his importunate guests | he slipped out a rear door to the} garage, his powerful coupe into the driveway and sped toward the city. It was only a bit after midnight... ‘Thi should be in full swing at the Club. He frowned, foreseeing dif- ficulty, because Johnny was un- tried and unknown. He could give him a big build-up, still Barry| Was a shrewd business man.} Money might do the trick. What} was the use of money if it rama work out a thing like is? And so, at two o’clock in the morning, feeling like a boy scout who could not sleep until he had done his good deed for the day, Derek Knowles bought a half- interest in the Club Tunis for a quite fabulous sum, and dis- patched a night letter to one John Benton at the Santa Monica Surf | Club requesting that he come as soon as possible to New York, as- | semble a band and take over the entertainment problem at the Ciub Tunis. “If I know Rose, and I think I do, she won't be able to resist New York, or being the ever- loving wife of an important band | leader!” day he telephoned Jan. She had, | the clerk informed him cheerily, | checked out and 'eft no forward-| ing address. | With increasing vexation he! called Doctor Burlingham, Doctsr | Murray, the hospital, several ko-| tels, but they either could not or would not admit to having Jan in their mean clutches. He called a Park Avenue florist and ordered an assortment of everything in the shop sent to the hospital where} Lance was, to be held for, and de- | livered to, Jan Merriner, with his card. Worried, fretting with uncer- tainty, he suddenly remembered | Jan's promise to attend Lenore’s tea tomorrow afternoon, Friday. He hated teas, but, he decided grimly, he would certainly put in an appearance at this particular tea! Goblin AN, on Friday afternoon, was in a mood. A bad mood; not elfish, but definitely goblinish. ce was resting beautifully, his operation over, Doctor Murray's optimistic prognostication bath-/| ing him in happiness. Leaving the Knowles’ castle} after seeing Lenore in Derek's} arms, she had been positive that | his life was now complete. But} since Derek’s deluge of flowers} yesterday and today she was not/ So positive. Actually, she consid-| ered, Derek had been in Lenore’s} arms, not she in his, if that was/ consolation! e had, she argued with her-/ self as an idea was born, noth-| ing to lose so far as Derek was concerned. “And I hate her.” she thought. “I think he’s very stupid. Maybe if I had him back at Sea Tide~I could get some sense into his copper-covered skull, but I haven't got the right kind of fire to fight New York!” Yet, Derek would surely be at Lenore’s tea for his mother. If she could re- mind him of Sea Tide, of his life} there with her, she might still have a chance against Lenore! Derek had once assured her: “Clothes don't make the woman.” } Perhaps this was a good time to find out. Lenore had asked for an} entertainer in costume— “And that’s just what she'll get! | I'm going to gamble my world/ against his and if I lose—” At five o'clock, when a taxicab stopped before Lenore’s Sutton} Place apartment, the worthy driver, who for five years had schooled himself never to be sur-|! ised at anyone or anything.| Jooked definitely astonished as his| small fare sallied across the side- walk and into the ornate modern- istic lobby. “I” stated Jan to the maid whe surveyed her, apparently reluct- ant to admit her, “am the enter- tainer. Miss Page expects me.” TIDE when, instead of an awed and uncertain young girl in artist’s smock, she greeted a tousle-head- ed, female urchin dressed in bare- foot sandals, blue denim jeans and loud checked shirt “Will the costume do?” Jan in- quired innocently. “These are my working clothes. “So picturesque,” purred Le- nore. “Do come in and meet my guests.” Jan shoved small, trembling hands into trouser pockets and Swaggered, ever so little. The long, narrow drawing room, done in gray and silver, was filled by groups of women in silks, laces, tweeds, furs and jewels. A few men were scattered among them. They ail stopped chattering to stare at Lenore’s latest arrival, wondering who on garth she could be. Jan felt guilty only the moment she met Derek's mother, a brittle, nervously pretty woman with dyed red hair, whose face looked as if all human expres- sion had been lifted out of it by plastic surgery. But she, or her mame, meant nothing to the Countess von Lurwitz, and Lea would have been only annoyed if she were aware that this ineredi- ble young person in pants pitied her and pitied her son more. Lenore trilled for silence, an- nounced Jan as a clever young artist from Olvera Street, Los Angeles, who would sketch a few portraits to Derek's arrival. took a few pen- cils ftom the pocket of her 3 and sat down to the table and pa- per Lenore provided. iHawméver, as she sketched, her imagination got to operating: and her small, pink tongue, literally and figur- atively, lodged against her left cheek, and when Lenore sat for behave. Lenore, but not in the way that young woman wished to be re- sembled. One of her friends spoke the consensus of opinion. “Darling!” she tittered, “you look like a Siamese cat!” Gone I ENORE grasped Jan’s arm firmly and piloted her into an ivory and lavender bedroom. She closed the door. “Tll never forgive you for this abuse of my generosity!” she grated. “I only asked you here because of Ricky! He’s absurdly determined to repay you for something or other. He feels sorry for you because you're so |young and so poor and so eb- viously and idiotically in love with him. Or is it his money?” Jan gasped. Never in her life had she so wanted to commit grave bodily harm. Her hand ached to slap that furious, super- cilious look off Lenore’s face. “I don’t love him!” she snapped, tears of rage fast elas- ing her throat. “And I don’t need anybody to be sorry for me! Be- sides, he’s more mine than yours. He's salvage—my salvage—and I could claim him if I wanted to!” Derek stepped into the room. “They told me Id find you here, Lennie—” His mouth dropped open. ‘“Jan,” he ejaculated in what she imagined to be horror- stricken tones. “Jan, what in heaven’s name are you doing in that outfit?” ‘Tve been slumming!” she shouted. Lenore ran to Derek. “She's quite mad, Ricky: She says she could claim you as salvage! She says you belong to her.” He scowled terrifyingly. “Oh, she does, eh? Weill, I've a few things to tell her!” He started for Jan, whe, thoroughly frightened by her own behavior, sprang past him and ran out sf the apart- ment to the elevator. “Take me down quickly,” she ordered the grinning colored op- erator. Derek tried to:catch her before the door closed, byt could not. He whirled and tare madly down eight flights of steps to the lobby. She was gone. Suddenly he threw back his head and roared with laughter. The elerk and-the door as he went out mumbling: “Sal- vage, eh? I’m hers, all right!” Nevertheless, it soon became evident she had no intention of her. He took to hanging about the hospital, hoping for sight of her, unaware that she saw him and deliberately avoided him slipping out another entrance. dodging around corners and through corridors when his pur- uit grew too hot. He argued and threatened and stormed at d and nurses to no avail would net permit Lance an tors and they wovld not catch Jan and lock her up for him.
