Although Kent did not openly 90
TO the Jansens' again, he was gone
50 often until late at night in the
car she felt certain that he was
meeting Dovie somewhere.
BY this time all Bender knew
that she was posing for the great
artist from New York. and that he
was teaching her 10 fly. II had be-
gun to look as though II he had
come 70 see little Pat Sullivan he
had strayed from the fold and been
captured, quiet boldly. by her best

Pat knew this and frequently
warned Vivian that she should not
be so open in her friendship with
Mann.
Why notl" Vivian blew UP once.
Kent quite openly is carrying on
with Dovie Jansen. I certainly owe
him no consideration"
Cuddles began TO feel as II she
was quite let out Of 1t. Only once,
in two months had Vivian and Bar
kow taken her for a flight. Once
a small doubt crept into her mind
but she hurriedly put 1t away as
disloyal. Vivian could never be like
that, she told herself.
Celeste, standing in the back door
me day when Kent was in the
kitchen, saw Dovie in the Jansen
back yard.

ter and after ever day" Celeste
pointed to Dovie.
Kent exploded.

ole woman like a barrel. Madame
she weel nevair be so. She is
50 beautiful, so slendair."

up at Celeste and asked blankly.
Kent looked after her and
scratched his head. She's not 50
strong for me, something tells me
But lord. she's what / call q hot
locker. he said 10 himself.
Vivian was floored when she
walked into the living room early
one afternoon and found Dovie.
Dovie got UP with a swagger.
Hello. Vivl You bad girl. YOU
didn't return my calf So / thought
being old neighbors, and knowing
you are VERY busy these days, I'd
run over"
Yes" Vivian was tongue tied
again Good grief, why couldn't
Pat come In. No one to save her
this time.) ~Tm-Tm glad you did.
I've been very busy
Dovie raised her brows.
"Ah ha! The quite little mousie
is a heart breaker these days. I'VE
been hearing things about YOU"
