The next morning | called Evelyn. ShC
1. had already heard from Clark, and ha(
consented to go.
"It will be awfully jolly" she said
81 saw him go by in the ear, yester
day, and it is a peach"
1t was.
A high powered touring ear with an
especial body. 1t could seat five com.
fortably, but really was designed for
only four. The seat in the tonneau was
built up high in the back, so that no
wind struck the back of ones neck
when riding. The front seat was lower
but also protected.
"Will you take the front seat beside
me}'' Clark asked as we stood on the
walk. "Mrs. Reeve and your brother
can entertain each other"
Just a suspicion crossed my mind but
l at once dismissed it.
Had he asked Evelyn with that in
mindl Did he plan to have mi sit with
him.
"I1 ride with you going, then change
with either David or Evelyn coming
back" l said, as l let Clark help mi to
my seat.
"That's a good idea," Evelyn said.
"You can come back with me then,
your brother can sit in front with Mr..
huntington"
We started off in great good spirits.
We rode far out in the country, then
stopped at a little road house-a quaint
little place, set back from the road, sur
rounded by trees and vines, with every
available space filled with flOwers-old-
fashioned, kitchen garden flowers.
A Real Country Luncheon
1 never had seen the place, before,
and was delighted with it. Clark order
ed the luncheon. We were too busy look
ing around the yard to pay any atten-
ton to what he ordsred, so it was all
a surprise.
We had great foamy pitchers of milk
to drink, a cold roast chicken, hot bis
cults and honey, then luscious straw
berries with cream so thick we could
scarcely pour it from the dainty little
blue-and-w white pitchers.
1t was all delicious, and we ate until
Evelyn declared she would have to be
carried to the car, and David boyishly
said he was "full enough to bust"
After we had rested a while on the
broad veranda. CLARK told us to pick all
the flowers we wanted; he had made

We were within a couple of miles OF
home when | saw a machine approach
us. Someway, it looked familiar.
Then, just as we passed each other in a
cloud of dust, l saw that it was our car,
and that George and a woman swathed
in wells were the occupants.
l said nothing, although | knew that
had also recognized George. l
hoped that David had not. He had
been talking animatedly with Clark,
when they passed; both Ears were going
at such a high rate Of speed that l hard
ly believed he had noticed who was
the other ear. / knew if he had,
| should be in for a bad half hour when

/ felt sick. In a way, I suppose 1
should have thought that George had
just as much right to take a woman
for a motor ride as | had to go with
Clark. But, someway, it seemed so diff
