thought his daughter was about TO
speak. but each time she seemed to

This was not said In any tone OF
complaint. She could not dream OF
such a thing, because her fathers po-
sition was such that her lack OF
friends was only temporary embar-
rassment. She knew that well enough.

This was not In keeping with what
David Kerr's daughter had been
taught about her fathers town. The
number OF automobiles also surprised
her. BY the, time she reached the
place appointed for her meeting with
her father there was not so much OF
condescension in her attitude toward
Belmont.
This changing viewpoint did not
mean a diminution OF enthusiasm.
More than anything else It spurred
her curiosity. She realized that the
real Belmont was an advance over

Then Gloria told OF a girl she had
seen on the train who had come to
Belmont to theater party. She ex-
planned to her father that no occasion
would give her a better opportunity
to see the Belmont OF which she was
to be q part than that offered that
evening. In all likelihood she would
meet number of persons between
the acts. From her point OF view she
suggested so many good reasons that
her father was afraid to interposs
any objection at the time.

The surprise which Gloria knew her
unexpected arrival would occasion
was even greater than she could i'm
agine. Several things had happened
in Belmont recently to disturb David
Kerr. and he was In no frame of mind
for further complications.
The stock-yards company was be-
ginning TO hint at certain favors II
wished extended. and with an election
coming on, Kerr was in no mood for
such concessions. Worse still. the
Belmont News had just changed own
ership. and the new editor was not
displaying that subservient fealty
which had characterized all Belmont
papers in the past. Already the News
was swapping at his heels and asking
questions which were extremely point.
