happiness knows no bounds when she meets her idol, Ken Gleason,
often seen with Cecile, Jeanette's younger sister. Ardeth and Ken
see much of each other. Announcement of Ken’s engagement to
Cecile stuns Ardeth. Ken denying his engagement, explains it is
his mother’s v/ish that he marry Cecile. He confesses his love for
Ardeth. Unable to oppose his mother, Ken hopes to win her approval
of his marriage to Ardeth. Neil quarrels with Ardeth about Ken.

“You—bully! If you try to see
him I—I’ll—” She blazed at him
through the uncertain light, eyes
and teeth agleam like a small out-
raged cat.
Suddenly she was flung flat
against him, held by his arm as
rigid and uncompromising as a
steel bar. His teeth showed in a
smile which held no mirth, his
eyes burned down at her from
their shadowy sockets: “You

Neil stood beside her, his long
arms folded tightly against his
j tall, lean body. His face was
I paper white and his eyes were
very black under his thick, black
brows.
Ardeth stood before them with
flaming cheeks, her slender body
•aut with excited anger.
Aunt Stel’s eyes went heavily
over the girl, much as a lumber-
ing wagon would crush a moth.
“So, you finally decided to come
home, did you?” Her voice was
thick with scorn. “Remembered
you had a good, decent home to
come to, when you got good an’
ready! An’ me, like a fool, keepin
your dinner hot in the oven till
all hours!”
“I’m sorry about dinner, Aunt
Stel,” the girl said with stiff lips.
“I know I should have telephoned,
but—but I lost all track of
time-”
“Yes, I can believe that.”
Aunt Stel’s lips were a thin line.
“You forget most things since
you’ve started chippying around
with your rich beau! 1 dare say
that isn’t ail he’s made you for-
get!”
The earl before her blazed with
ered in intense knots in doorways,
discussing something mysterious
from which they had barred Ar-
deth. But she remembered, and
later she knew ...
Now, slightly sick, choking with
anger, miserably aware that Paul
had roused from sleep on the
lounge and was drinking in the
scene with one scarlet ear, she de-
fended herself.
“Yrou have no right to say that
to me. Aunt Stel. I didn't want
to say anything so—so soon, but
—well, Ken and 1 are engaged.
We’re going to be married—soon
—so. you see!”
“Married!” hotly, from Neil.
“Married!” a derisive cackle
from Aunt Stel. “Well, let ‘me
tell you, young lady, you’re not
pulling the wool over my eyes!

sheik—there’s a g'vl works in her

She tried to plan as she crept in
quietly beside the motionless Bet.
A hotel room—something inexpen-
sive. She could manage that until
! such time as she and Ken could be
I married. The thought of him
i brought a warm, sweet security to
1 overlay her anger. She drifted to
sleep serene m the memory of him.
