herself acquiescing.
"But can't be gone long" she

th ee-quarters Of an hour"
"Plenty of time!" Tony answered
carelessly. PLENTY of time!"
Just where they drove Judith was
not familiar enough with the terri
tory around to know. Tony struck
out for open country and within
fifteen minutes the buff roadster
was puring along a paved road with
bare fields on either side.
This was odd, but it was more
surprising still when Tony pressed
one slippered foot on the brake and
the roadster obediently halted.
"Trouble?" asked Judith.
The other girl laughed shortly.
She turned toward Judith and there
was no gaiety about Tony Knights
expression now.

-''but not with the car! 1 thought
1t might be better for you and me
to talk over a few matters before

was too bad, wasn't it, that Bert
had to spill the beans last night
about bringing the car home late?

about that. wonder what he'd say
If he knew the real truth?"
But I don't understand--you
haven't any right"
"Oh, I haven't, haven't ~ I've
got something more important than
rights. I've got the facts! Do you
imagine I don't know how you've
been sneaking into town these ]ast
few weeks and where you've been
going?

address on West Twelfth and tell

on mercilessly. I've known it all
along. but this thing yesterday
we'll, that was just little too raw!"
JUDITH KNIGHTS face was very
y white. For a moment she stared
at Tony. uncomprehending. Then
a terrified, incoherent cry escaped
her lips.
"You couldn't" Judith moaned.
"Oh. You wouldn't tell him. Prom
Use you won't do that"
With a sneering laugh Tony
knight interrupted
II wouldn't. wouldn't II Well,
I'd like to know why not. OF course
I'm going to tell father every word
Of it.
'It's about time he knew the
truth about you'll Your game was
clever. I'll admit, while it lasted,
but it's over now. You'd better

Suddenly Judith's chin raised
and she eyed her haunting compan-
ion squarely.
Tell me-" she said tensely, what
you're going 10 tell your father
about me-"
Wouldn't you like to know,
thought" jeered Tony. But you
won't find out. First I'll ask you to
tell me what you're going to do
about it"

"You mean-if 1 don't tell2"
Judith nodded her hear aff1rma-
