In Defense of the PuritUns

John Macy, the author, offers
the above to prove his contention
that the Puritans were not really

His voice was low, careful.
Jacqueline had never seen him
more carefully groomed. His face,
closely shaved and Swallowed by
the small light on their table, was
handsomer than she had remem-

her sensation that he had never

stalled her. Yet she had not been
niggardly in responding to the
aroused glamor of emotions. If
the outer bulwarks of her in
stinctive feminine defenses had
fallen. Jacqueline now realized
a deep satisfaction that she had
maintained at all times a perfect
control that she never threatened.
She was able, now. to think of
Tom Ware sweetly: to his credit
she recalled that there had been
no grossness, nothing merely sen.
sual. But this consideration, she
told herself happily, could be
postponed.
Real Romance
Nevertheless, that night at the
Sea Shell. the intoxication of ro-
nance was still upon her like a
silvery mantle. Julius Lupino,
when he saw her, she felt, sensed
a change In her-an awakened
something that spread like an in
visible ocean over her whole
being. She saw him first sitting
at side table glover
ing.
Tom Ware would not be pre-
sent tonight; she had urged upon
him the necessity of regular
hours at parting, and had prom
ised to see him the following
day. Tonight, now, she missed
him.
From Lupino's distant table, in
the hectic. noisy cabaret, there
seemed to emanate some chilling
air that penetrated, that began
slowly to tear the shimmery
gauze of fairy-like texture that
floated about her. Later, he

IT'S too bad. Tom Ware?"
YES"
''I've been pretty busy the last
week on other matters" he said
with apparent indifference. "How
far has this love affair gomez"
In the back part of Jacqueline's
mind was the solid realization
that she was free to terminate
this inquisition at any moment:
she was under no obligation what
ever to discuss with Lupino any
intimate details of her private
life. But more potent was the
drag exerted upon her mind, the
pulling-out force Of Lupino's will.
