 Dick borrows his mother's maid, Maggie, to teach Gloria to cook. But she refuses to learn.
 Dick has an attack of flu. While he Is working at home with Miss Briggs, his secretary, Gloria plans a house. warming. She asks Stanley Wayburn, an actor with whom she was once in love, to be one of the guests. He accepts.
 When Dick meets Wayburn he is instantly jealous. although the ac- tor devotes himself to Mrs. Gail. Glory drinks too much, and faints away while dancing with Dr. John Seymour, whose wife, May, is in love with Jim Carewe. The party breaks up when Lola Hough scolds Bill. her husband, for betting. Mag gie. disgusted, quits her job and re- turns to Mother Gregory.
 Then Glory hires RanGhiid Swan son, although Dick tells her they cant afford a maid. And she buys s40o worth of clothes. besides! Then she begs Dick to buy her an automobile. He says he hasn't enough money to do 1t.
 NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY "If I sell my own car, I'll make enough on the sale to pay down something on the new one for you" Dick said. T don't suppose I really need that old speedster of mine. It would probably do me good to walk to the office once in a while"
 You do look pale, Dick" Glory said, "and I'm not saying that just because I want you to sell your car. -. You really don't look we'll" But as the daye went by Glory thought that Dick had forgotten all about the little blue car.
 On the morning of her twenty first birthday Dick had gone when she opened her eyes, after a night l uI uttpI olSNps
 "Did MT. Gregory take his car this morning?" she asked Ranghild when she brought up her breakfast tray.

 Glory leaped from bed. She Tar downstairs in her bare feet ant looked out of the sunroom win dow. -.
 There 1t was, with the sunshine striking its polished sides he little blue Winged Victory! Her yer! own! Glory thrilled with happiness as she stood looking at it.
 While she was dressing the tele phone rang.
 This Is Miss Briggs Speaking, came a cool, low voice over tn wire. Mfr. Gregory asked me t tell you that an instructor woult be out about twelve to teach yo' to drive the new automobile"
 Thanks" Glory said shortly. sh hung up the receiver with bang.
 What right had Dick to give Nils Briggs a message like that for her
 Why should Miss Briggs have t know that she didn't know how t run an automobile that he family had never owned ,one?
 And why hadn't Dick telephoned himself, 10 wish her a happy birth day?
 There had been time onl a few short weeks ago when he ha' called her up three or four times day just to hear the sound of he voice.
 Oh, well, that was the way mar riage changed man! As soon a he had you, he stopped caring 10 you evidently. Or. at any rate he didn't care half so much for yo as he had. ..
 The demonstrator arrived a littl ' DplOTp l"clNCt ulONC Walnut Hill park. AS they bowie along, he explained the mechanisr of the car to her.
