CHAPTER V Continued "Well, why not? Lee. since I have become older I think I'm beginning to understand what she must' have meant.to him. What it meant when he lost her. I can talk about it to you. I've never tried to tell anybody any-body before. Never spoke of it to Pink even. And I know him better than anybody. But I never found anyone who I thought would understand. under-stand. Until now. I think it's because be-cause of your mother," he decided. "Would you mind if I tried to tell you something?" "Of course not, Dale." "It's a queer thing" he frowned thoughtfully, staring away again into the distance "I doubt if a boy ever grew up with more beautiful ideals of a mother he couldn't remember. re-member. Father did it all. I'm not sure I can make this clear. But it must have been almost a passion with him. To be sure that I loved my mother. He wanted me to believe be-lieve that she was beautiful and perfect. It wasn't difficult to make me understand that she was beautiful. beau-tiful. I have two pictures of her. But the beauty of her character was built for me by father. It grew into something very near idolatry. Can you understand at all what I'm trying to express?" "Yese" "That's the way it was all the time I was growing up. I don't mind telling you I'm glad now. Unconsciously, Un-consciously, I think, I tried to be what Elaine would have expected. Please don't get the idea that I've been morally perfect. But I'd rather rath-er like to have you know I've never done anything I'm particularly ashamed of. J can thank father for that and plenty of other things." Almost no words were spoken on the homeward trip. Dale sat wrapped in thought. Lee devoted herself to driving, making as much speed as the road and traffic permitted. per-mitted. Later, Dale called attention to the soaring arch of the Bayonne Bridge with its twinkling lamps . spanning the purple murk. "Looks like a rainbow going home late," be observed. Lee smiled and made no reply. Nothing more was said until the car neared the parsonage. "I'm going to let you out here-," Lee explained. ex-plained. Then, when Dale alighted and turned to speak, she checked him. "I know what you're going to say. Please let me thank you instead. Good night." CHAPTER VI Jonathan Farwell sat at his study table. Under hiseight hand lay a pile of loose shelts. His stub pen was traversing one after the other in relentless fashion, like a plough moving at high speed across white fields. As each page was finished, it was thrust aside and the pen continued con-tinued its drive. So were the clergyman's cler-gyman's sermons drafted. To the final word. There was a sudden pause as the worker lifted his head at the sound of a step on the stair. "Is that you. Dale? Please come here." The pen hung suspended above the paper. Farwell looked up into his son s face. "I meant to tell you before, Dale, and it sliDned my mind.vWe are having guests for dinner Thursday. " ... M "You don I mean . Not to- morrow!" "Yes. Tomorrow. I hope you have no other engagement." The minister's eves wandered back to his unfinished page. But I have! I'm . . . Who are your guests, Father?" "Mr Marblestone and his family HEART HKMTA t Joseph McCord are dining here with ui." A slight emphasis on the last word. "Oh!" "I wished to pay that one obligation obliga-tion while I was sure you would be in town." The pen crossed out an undesired word. "That does put me in a Jam!" Dale exclaimed in frank dismay. "It's rather late to . . ." "Yes," his father agreed. "Quite too late to recall our Invitation. Your place of course, is at our table. ta-ble. Please be good enough to arrange ar-range it that way," Farwell was writing again. The incident appeared to be closed. Dale turned on tys heel without a word and sought his own room. With the door closed behind him, he stood staring out the window in helpless wrath. Thursday. Lee's twentieth birthday. birth-day. She was having a dinner party. par-ty. He had been counting the days almost. And now ... Lee had been as excited as a little kid when she told him about the party. "It's going to be ever so informal. Dale. Just some of the crowd I grew up with. And you." "It's mighty nice of you to include me," had been his grateful reply. "Wild horses couldn't keep me away. You know, something tells me it's going to be the nicest party I ever went to." "Nonsense! You're getting your expectations raised too high." "Aren't you going to have Ice cream?" "Maybe." "And you're going to be there. So it will be the nicest." "I wonder . . ." Lee had flashed "Of coarse him a little smile and left that sentence sen-tence unfinished. How could he tell her at almost the last minute he wasn't coming to the wonderful party? Hanged if he would! It wasn't fair. Dale turned with a clenched fist and scowled at the punching bag hanging near by. That would help. Too childish. And noisy. Instead, he stalked downstairs and into the kitchen where his spirits spir-its were not lightened at the sight of Pink polishing the best silver. "Hi. kid." "Look here. What's all this about company for dinner tomorrow night?" "You mean that . . . Quarry outfit?" out-fit?" "Marblestones." "I never can remember that moniker. mon-iker. Jhey're comin', That's all I know. Except the dominie told me to try and dish up somethin' special spe-cial swell. Don't tell me you wasn't in on it." "I wasn't," Dale snapped. "It's no joke. I've accepted an invitation invita-tion to the Bradys' for dinner tomorrow to-morrow night It's Lee's birthday." Pink emitted a low whistle. "Say! That does sort of put you on a spot. Well, it's what you get for two-timing. I'm sorry. No kidding. kid-ding. The dominie's lookin' for you to be here, I take it." "He just told me so. But I can't now," Dale answered. "Wait a niinute, kid. You can't go and let him down like that. It's the first party he's throwed here. Don't walk out on him. That Brady gal seems like a nice little sport. Go tell her what you're up against. She'll see it your way." Dale strolled into the lower hall and paused irresolutely near the telephone. J'ink was right, he concluded con-cluded moodily. After all. it would be best to tell her. Dale rather hoped she would refuse to accept such an eleventh-hour excuse. Then he could submit the matter to his father agiiin.- Reluctantly he dialed the Brady number. A familiar voice answered him. "Say, l.ee . . I'm up against it" He blurted it out with no preamble. pre-amble. "Father hs juit told me he is entertaining company for dinner din-ner tomorrow night Ho expects me to be on hand, of course, and . . ." "But you must. Dale. 1! your father fa-ther needs you." "That's sweet of you. I wanted to tell you ..." "I understand. It's quite all right" Lee laid It very quietly. "It Isn't!" Dale exclaimed miserably. mis-erably. "I may be a little late, but . . "I understand," Lee repeated. "Good-by." She hung up Dale slowly replaced the receiver as he heard the click at the other end of th line. He faid one word under his breath. x Pink Mulgrew outdid himself to make that first formal dinner at the parsonagt "something special swell." "I got an idea, he said affably to Dale, "these swells wouldn't mind showin' me up If I give 'em a chance. You said you ate at their shack once. Who waited on table?" "A maid passed the things." "I hoped you'd lay that. I learned to deal 'em oft the arm a long time ago. But when I Was in Chi last time I went and bought me a book on how to buttle. Gives the whole works. I've been wantin' to try it out." Pink's white coat was starched to such a degree that it creaked pleasantly when Its wearer received re-ceived the Marblestones at the front door and relieved them of their wraps. Pink's dignified mien left nothing to be desired, albeit he narrowly not, Dale." repressed a whistle of admiration when he assisted the younger woman wom-an out of her long coat and found himself staring at a generous display dis-play of white spinal column.

His first move, when he led his family into the parlor, was to make for the fireplace where a wood blaze crackled cheerily He spread his feet well apart, thrust his hands under the skirt of his coat and beamed upon his host "This is what I call real comfort, com-fort, Doctor!

Dale's entranceand quiet greeting to the guests furnished fur-nished the first diversion. "I was beginning to be afraid you weren't here," Evelyn suggested to him, under cover of the general talk. "I didn't like to ask." "Of course I was here. It took me longer to dress than I expected. Wanted to look my best." He mustered mus-tered a smile as he said It.

In the intense silence that followed. Pink commenced serving the bouillon. bouil-lon.

"Your table Is lovely, Doctor," she said to her host. "Those flowers are gorgeous. Someone here has wonderful taste. Don't you think so, Mother?" Evelyn was regarding Dale with a smile as she asked the. question. Mrs. Marblestone was preoccupied with a study of the silver sil-ver that flanked her place impressively. impres-sively. She offered no comment The first course succeeded in loosening loos-ening the banker's tongue. The Yorkshire pudding had its particular particu-lar appeal. "I don't remember ever eating anything just like that, Doctor," he insisted happily over a second por-tioa por-tioa "Do you mean to tell me that your man cooked this dinner? Where did you pick him up?" "Mulgrew was injured serving overseas. He has been with me almost al-most from the time he recovered." "That reminds me." Marblestone looked curiously at his host "Someone "Some-one was telling me the other day that you were in the army yourself. Funny I hadn't heard it before. Is that correct?" "I was, for a time. Mrs. Marblestone, Marble-stone, may I help you to something?" some-thing?" The dinner proved a distinct ordeal or-deal to Dale. In spite of his resolves, re-solves, he found his thoughts straying stray-ing continually to that other table where he should have been a guest at the moment Lee's eager little face and laughing dark eyes haunted haunt-ed him. She had said it was all right. But was it? Would it be? He must see her as soon as possible. possi-ble. Try to make her understand this wasn't his fault "Do you play?" asked Evelyn of Dale after dinner. "No indeed." "Then your father's the musician. Isn't he?" Dale hesitated. This situation fitted fit-ted exactly into the intolerable evening. eve-ning. He had done his best to conceal con-ceal any display of resentment, but he was aware of the displeasure that would be roused if he answered in the affirmative. "Doesn't he play?" Evelyn Insisted. Insist-ed. "Why sometimes." It was out now. Evelyn turned in triumph to her host "There now, Doctor! I was sure. Please play for me." "I am a very indifferent performer, perform-er, Miss Marblestone." Farwell's voice was low. "I should much prefer pre-fer listening to you: Allow me ..." "Oh, I wouldn't dream of it!
