PAGE FOUR ALONG CAME CINDERELLA SS By VIVIEN GREY YESTERDAY: This is the third meeting between Roger Cosgrave, a young man of wealth, and Lovely Daye, girl of the New York tenements. Swept along by an emotion he cannot master, Roger has for- gotten his fiancee, Emily Perry, and has driven Lovely up to a cottage not far from his estate. And now they are there, Roger finds he suddenly can think of other things than Lovely. Of food, for example. Chapter Eight Alone At Last Roos was speaking: “Food, beautiful lady!” There was warmed canned corned beef hash, canned peas, crackers from a package. Canne peaches, great golden disks. Small cookies and coffee. Afterwards in the softly lighted living room Lovely found in Rog- er’s arms and lips a fervent, beau- tifully tender passion. They talked in little scraps. “T’m foolish about you, darling,” Roger murmured, his lips against the bright gold of her hair. “I've lost all sense of everything else.” Lovely smiled. Her fingers reached up to brush his face. “It's such nice foolishness, though,” she said softly. “What are we going to do about it?” He was thinking of Emily. His diamond she was wearing. Their marriage scheduled in less than a month. “Must we do anything?” Roger let it go at that. The path that led into the future was a suddenly confused thing where two days ago it had been plain and clear, with Emily walking it beside him. He looked at his watch. “It’s another day, dear! Four! You've missed your beauty sleep. Though Heaven knows what you'd do with any more beauty! Better turn in now, Pick your own bed- room.” He hesitated a moment, then: “You're not afraid of being here alone?” Lovely looked a trace startled. “Alone? Afraid? No, of course not. But,” she hesitated, “is this all there is, Galahad? Isn’t there any more?” joger swept her against his heart and held her there tightly. “I’m no Galahad,” he said kiss- ing her fiercely, “It’s you I’m thinking of. I’ve got to. I feel that way about you.” And Lovely left alone was a lit- tle startled by the turn of events. Roger, driving down the hill to- ward his father’s big house, was thoroughly shaken. He tried to face the situation he discovered himself in and found it too startling for any calm solu- tion. He was engaged to marry Emily. The invitations for the wedding were all but out. Emily had selected her attendants, he his ushers and best man. Their parents lived on nearby estates and had been friends for years. Emily was a fine sweet girl. Thought of ever hurting her wrung his heart. Yet there was Lovely. Lovely! Like a hot sweet flame in his veins. Like a thread of bright gold running through all the pattern of his thinking. Like hands clinging to his heart with never to be forgotten tenderness. Like a haunting refrain singing over and over again in his being. Could he marry Emily, go through the ceremony before him with Lovely so imprinted on his heart? He swung his car into place in the garage and then started up the side steps. Daylight was strug- gling through dawn mist. A figure rose like a pale ghost from the shadows of the top step. “Roger!” “Emily!” She was like a wraith here in the strange half-light of dawn, still in her long sweeping chiffon party dress. “Emily what are you doing here?” Her hands were icy in his. “Oh, Roger!” Terrific let down in her voice. ‘orgive me, dear! T had to do it! I knew something was wrong. I could feel it tonight. And then when you left I watched and saw your car turn toward the city instead of home! I felt as if something terrible was going to happen. I had to come here and wait.” “Silly little baby!” Gathering rms, damp.

How care- lessly you handle my reputation!” Emily laughed across at Roger. Here in the heart of Roger’s home her sense of well being returned. All was right with her world. “You put me to bed!” “All right! All right, if you’re a stickler for details! I took you to the guest room door then.” “That does sound a little better, Roger; but nothing anyone could say would change your father’s or my feeling about Emily.” Mar- cia was rising. “I'll leave you two love birds now. Must go for a fit- ting for the most important dress I’ve ever had in my life—the one for your wedding, darlings!” She bent tu kiss Emily as she passed. A strange jagged little silence held Roger and Emily after she had gone. “Her dress for our wedding! Oh, Roger!” Emily broke the silence, her voice lighted glamorously. Roger lighted a cigaret and gave it to her. He became intensely concerned, then, lighting one for himself. He tried to smile when finally he turned to her. “I suppose I’d better-go now,” Emily said finally. She knew her family would not be concerned about her. She often stayed with the Fongraves: She looked up ex- pecting Roger to object and have some plan for a pleasant day to- gether. But he said: “Tl take you, Emily.” It was only a short drive. Mrs. ees insisted Roger stay for lunch. She laughed brightly as she watched him move restlessly about. “Lucky your_wedding’s_ only three weeks off, Roger. You're nervous as a Cat In a strange gar- ret. I don’t believe you could hold out any longer.” Mrs. Perry and_her husband were pleased with Emily’s choice. Every thing about the match seemed perfect from every point of view. Roger was nervous and uneasy, Lovely’s face kept coming be- tween him and Emily, He scarcely touched his food. He was anxious to know what was going on in the cottage on Mt. Airy. Mrs. Perry’s amusement was of a particular happy kind as she watched him. “Love is like that!” she said. But Emily was solemn as she | said goodbye to Roger. “You'll be here this evening?” she asked wistfully. “Mari’s giv- ing the party for us, you know. You're supposed to be there and with me!” She tried to laugh a little on the last but even Roger, preoccupied as he was, noticed what pitiful laughter it was. in won't fail you, Emily,” he sai Back To Love | A™» Roger, driving up Mt. Airy Road toward the cottage, swore to himself that he meant what he had just said to Emily. He would go to the cottage, get Lovely and take her back to her sister's. He would give her enough money to ease things for quite a while. And that would be that. Then he was turning in the drive of the cottage. Stopping the car. Before he was out the door of the house swung open. Lovely was framed there. Love- ly! His heart seemed to wake and live once more. He was aware of oy, one emotion—wanting Love- ly Daye. The cottage was neat. Lovely had washed the dishes they had the night before and put everything in order. “I don’t know why I did.” Her Taughter was a rich thing, bi bling in her throat. “Things like that never interested me wvefore.” “Perhaps,” he had swept her to his heart and was looking down at her with fondness, “that’s be- cause this was Granny Hale's cot- tage, my maternal grandmother’s. She was like that. Neat. Orderly. She left this to me.” “I suppose people are like that sometimes,” Lovely said thought- fully. “I mean they live afterward in what they’ve been while they were here.” “Everyone is. You start some- thing with your life and it goes on and on like the ever enlarging circles that follow dropping a pebble into water.” Lovely grinned ruefully. “Swell thought that. I mean especially about our mistakes. Which I make plenty of.” The last surprised Roger. He noticed something strange and different about her suddenly. Her ent | body that seemed to have been ips, {taut and res fashioned for love, all. luring curves and subtle suggestion, was ting even though her eyes smiled and her. lips s| curved in the shape of kisses, SIX MARRIAGES, BUT NO DIVORCES “Meaning, beautiful?” Roger —— RICHEY STRESSES SAFEGUARDS FOR YOUTH OF NATION ES ARE ASLEEP TO THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES; URGES AN AWAKENING “The Government is alert to the perils that beset the young }men now filling cantonments and |training camps, and has shown a |mind to cooperate with the 'Church in throwing up safe- jguards, but the churches are {asleep,’ Raymond T. Richey, |Houston crusader, told his audi- jence at Duval and_ Division | streets, last night. Evangelist | Richey said there were notable |exceptions, and passed an orchid to Rev. A. C. Reviere. pastor of |the First Methodist (Stone) church, of Key West, who last \Sunday night launched a two |weeks’ revival campaign, with |Chaplain Blake Craft, U. S.

I am ad- vised the Government wants to cooperate for morality and \sobriety among our young sol- ‘diers, sailors and marines, many jof whom are from Christian jhomes. My God, why doesn’t the | Church get busy?” | Assailing lack of liquor regula- | tion, the social evil, and gambling, Evangelist Richey said the time had come “to defend the defend- ers.” “God,” he said, “will hold |to a strict accounting His minis- !ters, and Christians generally, jfor the moral and spiritual well- | being of the Nation’s youth called in Uncle Sam’s vast defense pro- | gram. | Mr. Richey spoke from II | Chron. 7:14: “If my people, which jare called by my name, shall hum- ble themselves, and pray, and seek ;my face, and turn from their evil ways; | heaven, and will forgive their sin, jand will heal their land.” | “Put God first,” said |Richey, “instead of jazz, and money, and pleasure-seeking, an] |the scourge of war will be kept |from America, and this country | will see such prosperity as it has never known before!” | Motion pictures of European ; war scenes were shown at the |close of the evangelistic service, |as a part of Mr. Richey’s nation- | wide prayer crusade. In the service was Mrs. Eugene A. Roberts, 1407 Olivia street. 'Mys. Roberts, who had come for prayer for deafness of her young |son, testified she attended Evan- gelist Richey’s first Lakeland meeting 14 years ago this winter, and that she was healed through prayer at that time of inflam- matory rheumatism. She had been ill for two years, she said, and for one year was almost wholly incapacitated. She was definitely and permanently heal- ed, she stated. She was married jlater. Mr. and Mrs. Roberts have lived in Key West for 12 years. Mrs. Richey, wife of the evan gelist, will share speaking time |with Mr. Richey tonight at the big tent. There will be a chil- dren’s service, with a candy treat, Wednesday night. Healing serv- ices will feature Thursday and Friday nights. ‘Miss Garcia To Wed George Davis Mr. and Mrs. Raul Garcia, 1115 Catherine st announce _ the approaching 1m of their daughter, Miss Am« M.

Loughrey, who is ex- periencing a Minnesota winter after spending a number of sea- sons in Key West, has described his sensations in a poem to Dr. Johnson, an annual visitor to Key West for many years. Loughrey, who said it was eight degrees below zero when he wrote the letter from Winonia, describes his feelings in the fol- lowing verse: “The cold winds blow and chill my bones And make me shake and quiver, And when I stick my nose out- doors I hunch my back and shiver. “I wish I were back in old Key West, With bonnie breezes blowing, Instead of sitting here at home To watch the skies still snowing. “I drove the storm for miles Mid driving ice and snow, The Arctic gale blew from the North, Most twenty-one below, ninety \"I wish I were back in old Key West, With Turtleburgers roaming, Instead of sitting here at home To watch the skies still snowing.
