Hedge, the man who is supposed to be running the household on an economic basis. He tells the butler at the door that he is the owner of the place and is held captive pending the arrival of the police. Hedge, Wwho has never met Brooke, tells Constance about the incldent at the door, and from & description by Hedge she assures him that the supposed lunatlc is undoubtedly her father. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY This was his day of reckoning; this the hour for him to render an account of his stewardship, He made a swift survey of the revelers about him and of the glories that had been achleved by dollars. Then, setting his shoulders stiffly, he fol- lowed Constance into the hall, He found her hugging the lunatig. “What in 8am Hill has struck this | place?” demanded John W.

Allce was dancing somewhere, reveling in new-found llberty, ““Where's Bill?" “Oh, he's around Shall I call him?" Mr, Brooke made a gesture of dls- gust. “None of my children at the door to meet me," he declaimed angrily. “Nobody but a pack of strangers— and a party!” You're looking awtully well, father,” sald Constance soothingly. “You look youhger.” R “Cut 1t out!” he commanded per- emptorlly. “Ive heard that stuff be- fore.
