Uncle Gregory waved his arms I'm a
gesture of dismissal
! s"Ncry well, Roy, marry the girl II
you wish TO ruin your career. ]
| have financed your art studies to the
| point whore all you need Is couple
of years of perfect freedom abroad,
where you can absorb the best there Is
\ In painting and sculpture. Then, and
| then only, will you be able to throw
| yourself into your work and produce,
perhaps a masterpiece-for boy, you
| can paint"
Roy Benton listened and knew that
! his uncle spoke the truth, but his
! heart rebclled.
There was oEve Allison, to whom he
! had been engaged for many months.
! His acceptance. Of Uncle GrcgOry's
| offer meant their marriage must be
/ postponed for two years. He would
not let her decide, for women were
self-sacriliCing, but she must be told
Of Grclc Gregorys ultimatum, so she
! could understand why he was going to
! give up his painting and return to the
Iprofitablc0 though inglorious, business
Of commercial art-thc Illustrating Of
! high class advertisements. lie could
earn enough to support them in COM
! fort, and some day he might be able
! to save enough to pay for his trip
|abroad- with Eve. Of Course-when he
would take time to paint the great
! picture silence that had found form
| in his fancy.
Anyway, he would have Eve, and
| Eve Allison would make up for every
thing else even for the abandonment
| Of a career Eve was poor, a self
supporting girl whoowas making her
| lonely way in New York She had
been a bookkeeper in that great ad-
vertisng company which was anxious
| TO secure more of ROy's work.
on, there was absolutely no choice
| i'm the matter Roy shrugged his
| shoulders and told Uncle Gregory just
| how matters stood. "Tll marry her
now and go back to illustrating ad-
vertsemcnts," he told the old man.
"Very well, Roy, marry her now and
| you need never expect a penny Of my
money I'll leave it all TO the Puddi-
! ford Orphan asylum. ! won't take
| your final decision now. Go and tell
the girl what I've said and let her
decide"
Roy picked up his hat and left his
uncle without another word. He was
to meet Eve at o'clock and they were
to dine together at "A quiet little res
taurant His mind was entirely clear
as to what course he should follow.
