CIOOOICUCUIOOIUI

AN UNEXPECTED LUNCH PARTY Cl~1AP'IlER XXXVI , Barrett Edmonds had been gone ‘but a very few minutes when Ever- ett came in. I started to tell him Barrett had been calling, but before I had even mentioned his name Ever- §tt said: _ _ 1 "Don't keep me. talking, Sandra. I

.- I did as he asked, then querleds

' “What's the matter, Everett?"

` “Oh. you wo_uldn't understand. One of my managers, in a branch of- nce. has been speculating with the customer's accounts and ran away when he lost their money."

"Oh, isn’t that dreadful!" I return-

ed, altho as he had said, I did not understand at all. "Shall you be -gone long?

“I don't know! don't bother me." In about half an hour he was ready

to start. I knew be must be awfully troubled because he didn't fill/6 1119 a single order. He just kissed inc

carelessly, and said:

"Good bye. Sanéda. Bo a good

girl until I get back.

Tears filled my eyes. I wondered

if ever hc had left Leola so indif- ferently. Of course he liadn't-He loved heri- I wandered idly from room to room. -_What in the world should I do with myself? I did not know how long he was to be away. Perhaps a` long time. llc had not taken'a trunk, hut u man could get iulong with less luggage than a woman, and he had taken a bag and suit-case. '

The next morning I went down

town to get some new music I had seen advertised. I thought perhaps I might call Barrett up and tell him about it. Ile might come up and have another ‘slng,' as he called it.

I ordered the car and soon was

browsing about in the music store. I had selected several pieces to take home when I heard a voice cxclalm:

"How do you do. Mrs. Graham?'

and, turning, I saw Alico Sloan.

“Where are you 1unchingtoday?’

she asked, after wc had chatted :i few minutes.

“At home, _as usual," I tried to

say it brightly. but ii little of the loneliness I fclt must have crept into my voice for she said:

"You poor dear! come and lunch

at Rappelyc’s with inc." H "Oh, 1’d love to!" I had been there after_the theatre with Everett, but never in thc daytime. rt was an awfully smart place, also rt very gay one. “But l'ni not drcsscd for ii luncheon party."

We were rather earl-y, but the

place soon filled up. The music was delightful, and I scarcely could k€€D my feet still. Soon people coni- nienced io dance. As I never had seen dancing in the day-tinie, I was so interested in watcliiug tlieni that I almost forgot to cut, or_that I was supposed to talk to the others.

‘lWo will have a turn as soon as we

finish," Barrett Edinonils said, as he

ed to Mrs. Sloane: “Mrs. Graham is a wonderful dancer, as light as this- tie-down." _

I blushed at his praise, but said

regretfully: . ‘

"I won’t dance to day,`thank you." “Why not?" it was Alice -Sloane

who asked the question. Every- bcdy dances at Itappeiye‘s.’

“Bai-rett looked kcciily ut me. "Really, do you mean that you

“It isn’t fair! I won't stand for

it. I’ll be indiscreet too."

We left immediately after that-

Barrett Edmonds promising to come up the next afternoon to try my new songs; and Alice and I making an appointment to lunch at Rappeiye’s again dn a few days.

I wouldn't have coffee, but excused

by his Sgpreasion that Barrett was surpris by my actions. But I could not help it. He never bad seen Everett angry. 'I had, I couldn't forget the time he had been so angry when I sat in the hotel corridor when we were on our wedding trip. Perhaps he would think this worse.
