But the charge which Victorine had

girl. whose name she didn't know, had

Europa was practically her own car.
To have the race thrown would be the
worst kind of disgrace and it simply
must not happen.
On the other hand. to find another
good driver at this late date was not
an easy matter. To begin with. he
could not possibly be familiar with the
car. The complicated mechanism OF
the Europa required considerable ex-
perience before it could be handled to
the best advantage and, besides, all the
famous professionals were assuredly
already booked up by now, most OF

made no attempt to detain her.
"Tiens, items and a couple OF alors!
she said aloud, "just exactly what am
I supposed to say to that?"
Luckily, there was no need to say
anything. The outrageous visitor was
ger back to the boulevards which had
rubbed her defensive armor to such
brazen polish. and Alacia, pacing the
ROOM tried to think clearly.
Foremost in her mind was the con-
viction that by whatever means and
at whatever cost, her mother must be
disillusioned about Sartini. It was un-
bearable that Kate Sayers should go
on trusting him and something must be
done. But what? Her daughter had
already been brutally frank about the
man and that frankness had accom-
plished nothing. Alacia almost wished
that Kate Sayers had been present dur
ing Victorine's visit, for certainly 1t
would have been difficult to cherish
many personal illusions after that reve-

story of Santini's cheap amours would
lose conviction in the mere recounting
