One is Tony Bleecker, naval officer and son of a wealthy Hew York family, and the other is Michael McMillan, young magazine editor and widower. Virginia’s mother and father, aristo cratic but impoverished, are traveling in the west for the father’s health on the proceeds of the sale. Her brother. Richard , attractive but selfish and weak, aspires to be a poet. Tony, to his mother's disgust, is more than ordinarily attracted to Virginia and makes a date for supper with her. Tony’s mother, Jane, wants him so marry Marty Van Duyne.c beautiful but rather cynical girl of-his own social standiiyj. Virginia, sensing the mother’s opposition, acc ep t s ’lorry’s attentions, more to anger Jane than anything else as she is attracted to Michael. Richard, drawn to Marty from the moment he first sees her;'is taken away from her for lunch by Mary Lee Logan, a girl whom he meets at the sale. At the supper Tony discovers that Virginia has invited a ’-chaperone and he is disappointed. As they eat Mary Lee tjogan comes in. After they all leave Virginia remei%bers that Richard is opt uHth a bunchy of questionable men and that he has with him SI,OOO, some of the cash proceeds from the sale. She goes out to find him and meets a man who calls her by name. The man is Michael McMillan and he sends her home, going in search of Richard himself. Michael finds Richard has been cleaned out of his money by the gang and offers Rich ard a thousand dollars advance on A story Richard is to write with the proviso Michael likes it. Michael is doing this for Virginia. Richard accepts . (NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY J CHAPTER 15 THE WORLD wore a white pallor as,'the moon dropped back of the clouds.

Oh, there wasn’t anything to beat it! They shook hands when they parted. Michael stood back in the shadows while Rickey opened the door with his key. He heard Vir ginia’s voice. “Rickey, darling. . . Then the door was shut and through the uncurtained window he saw them going up the stairway. Michael leaned on the sundial.

The stone seat was set between two great box trees which boiled up about it in green luxuriance so that It was hidden from the .street, and indeed from the sight of those,in the house. Michael, shut in iby it, thought[of the lovers who bad found It a retreat. The smelHof the box was aromatic, delicious. He picked a leaf, or two and stuck them in his notebook.- He was aware ail at once of a sense of romance, foreign to the babit of these arid days, as if some thing unexpected ( might .happen this night under the moon. Through the low window where Anthony had first glimpsed Mrs. Montgomery and the gold-colored kit ten, - Michael no* saw Virginia busy with Rickey’s repast. It was tike a moving picture, and the high lights were' Virginia’s green gown and the leaping yellow flames of the new built Are. for Rickey bad brought wood, and was sitting now on the hearthstone, staring at the flames-as he talked to his sister. The yellow kitten had leaped to his knee, and lay flattened out. her tail waving. When the coffee boiled, they sat at the.; table and Rickey ate* an><J drank. Virginia ate nothing. She leaned her chin on her hand artd Ms-,’ tened. while Rickey talked to ,her. After Rickey had finished his-nheal.V the two of, .them straightened the room, then again they went together* up the stairs. It was a long time before the dobf again opened stealthily, and Vir ginia’s shadowy form flitted along the path. “Did you think I was never corning?’’ “I knew you would cortie." She sat down beside him. She was wrapped in a warm cape. “Rickey’s asleep, t thjftk. Anyhow he won’t' dream I’m-out here, but If he should miss me. I can say I was hunt wig the kitten.” ;i The kitten had followed her. and came now, purring, to sit on the arm of the bench and look, round-eyed, at the moon. . “How much did he tell 'yoii?” Michael asked. really, but I am sure.the money Is safe. I asked him and he said, 'as safe as the bank,’,”. „ , He wai aware of her relief and happiness. “I can’t add-much to it.” he said, “except that I'm glad I went. He and. Carney were having words and Oliphant knocked him down." “Oh!” Virginia’s tone was startled. '“T shouldn't .‘have told yoii except' 1 wanted, you to know that your bj-othei* isn’t likely to go with that gang again.” “T shall be glad when we get away.” her voice showed stress and strain. “You musn’t blame Rickey too much.
