The Girl Who Took 4 Chance
By JEAN SEIVWRIGhT

"Tut, tut" said Avril. q think he's awfully nice."
 q don't" retorted her friend.
 "You did," replied Avril. Hes so provincial" said Joyce scorn in her tones. Joyce, whatever do you mean! ] think he's fine, and broadminded, too.' "Perhaps when he talks to you, but oh, I'm sick of him." and Joyce dug her fingers viciously into a soft silken pill low.
 What have you been doing to him ? "Nothing," answered Joyce laconi. cally.
 "Then why this tirade?" After pause Joyce blurted out "Well, he objected to my dancing with Dick"
 Had Dick been indulging?" "Oh we'll, of course he had had few drinks and was saying lot of stuff to me that he didn't mean. Robert came along when we were sitting out and he got mad. Said it wasn't fair to Bess A lot she cares what her husband does Glad to get him off her hands and she knows I'm not interested in him." But Joyce, you must remember that Robert is a stranger here and perhaps he doesn't realize that you've gone around with the Penningtons for ages Why didn't you explain to him."
 Do you think I'm going to have him tell me what to do and what not to dO?'
 ''Oh, but Joyce, you know Roberts awfully fond of you. I think you're toe hard on him."
 "No, I'm not. Besides told him that just because he didn't want to have a little fun was no reason why he should interfere with my pleasure" "But Joyce you've never had such 6 good pal as Robert"
 "Well I'm all through with him now I won't have any man dictate to me about my friends" and saying this Joyce walked into her own room.
 "Oh, dear," whispered Avril to her. self, "what can I do? I thought Joyce was surely going to quit that bunch and

marry Robert."i
 Ever since Avril had known Joyce, the older girl had been surrounded by admirers, but as a rule they bored her very quickly and she had never serious ly loved any man. However, when Rob- ert Barton appeared, Avril felt that he was indeed the Prince Charming for whom Joyce had unknowingly waited. Avril acknowledged frankly that Joyce had been spoiled. She was a clever artist, had done some fine work and was known internationally for her pie turesque advertising illustrations and magazine covers. In certain artistic cir cles she was a recognized leader. At the time that Robert came on tho scene, however, she was the idol of a rather fast set and Avril had frequently been distressed to see how readily she ac- cepted the attentions of the many para sites who fawned upon her.
 The stiffness of the studio was un- broken save for the sound of Avril's pencil as she quickly drew the exquisite lines that distinguished her work, but her thoughts were nimble as her fingers as she tried to evolve some plan that would clear away this misunderstand- ing between Joyce and Robert. (To be contfnued.)
