Synopsis: Joyce Ashton, poor stenographer,
suffered loss of memory in skidding taxicab
accident in Chicago One morning two years
later she woke, after a fall from her horse,
her memory restored, to find herself as Frills,
the wife of Neil Packard, rich California
fruit packer. She determined to tell nobody
of her predicament but set about learning
what she could of her life in the interval.
From the conversation of her friends and
letters in her desk she gathered that she had
been 4 heartless, pleasure-loving young wo-
man. One letter that troubled her was from
a woman signing herself Sophie, blaming
Frils for not giving home to a baby Sophie
was caring for. Could it be her baby, Frills
wondered! She also found herself involved
in an affair with a man named Maitland.
In Sar Francisco, where she went while her
husband was away ON business, she met
Robert .Ainsworth. poet whose work she had
always admired. When Joyce returned home,
she decided to be pleasanter to Neil than
Frills had been. But this line was dangerous,
too. for Neil was pathetically anxious to win
back her love. At his request they call upon
Nel's mother, whom Joyce finds adorable.
Later, she met the poet, Robert Ainsworth,
and several times stopped for lunch at his
cabin when she was horseback riding. One
day he started to make love to her. Later,
Joyce and Neil, out riding, are come upon
by Ainsworth. Cornered, Joyce makes full
confession,--he loss of memory and its re-
storation. When Neil accuses Joyce and Aims
worth of being in love, Ainsworth makes a
"graccIess'' exit, leaving Joyce to explain.
Neil is hurt but upon arriving at home is
called to his Mothers home. Joyce decides
she must 60 away.

an awful lot. No one knew anything
about you, but guess lot of gos-

days ago Roxie told me how she'd
heard Miss Abbott telling Mr.. Neil
that she had seen you in San Fran
cisco the day before, that she'd told
you about Mr.. Neips mother dying,
but that you'd said you were sorry
but you couldn't come back to him."

or less profitable, but in her disor-
ganized state its very duliness was
beneficial to her. She kept to her
self, finding that the other girls
were suspicious of her finer clothes.
1t amused her to wonder what they
would think if they knew how she
really got them!
One day, less than a week after
she had begun her job, Joyce was
leaving the office at fve-thirty in
company with two Of the other girls,
Nogales international., 1933-08-05

with whom she was exchanging de-
sultory remarks, when familiar
voice made her tremble.
ooh, Mrs. Packard, Mrs. Pack
ard" 1t was Sam, calling to her
from the Duesenberg, which he
steered quickly to the curb and
stopped. Gee, Pm glad I found
youw He was out in moment and
holding the door for her, and Joyce,
too befuddled to think of the
amazement of the office girls, or
even to remember to bid them good
bye, climbed in.
Sam started the car before he
spoke further, and Joyce, suddenly
overcome, burst into tears and be-
gan sobbing uncontrollably.
There, there Sam was saying,
'it's all right, gee, I'm glad l found
you'll" F.. and then in a minute,
when Joyce was calmer, Shall |
make straight for Manzanita, or do
you want to get your bags frst?"
ooh, Sam, l mustn't go to Man
zanita! You took me so much by
surprise that l just naturally got in
the car, but I'm not going to be
weak-minded as you think! If you
don't mind driving me around for a
little, until | get control :" she
sobbed afresh.
"What do you mean, weak
minded? Excuse me, Mrs. Packard,
but l think there's a tall lot of ex-
planning to be done somewhere!"
Sam suddenly Redeemed, and
looked at her with mixture of
apprehension and determination.
Maybe it's none of my business,
and all that, but-gee, like you and
Mr.. Packard both too much"
He stopped confusedly, and then
shot at her perplexing question,
why didn't you want to come home
when Miss Abbott told you Mr..
Packards mother had died?"
Joyce stared at him in such hon
est bewilderment that he was i'm
pressed. why, what on earth are
you saying, Sam? What do you
mean? Has Mrs. Packard died since
since l left? Of course | didn't
know! I haven't seen a soul from
Manzanita! Tell me-pleasep NeiTs
mother-she knew how fond he was
OF her-how he would grieve! Of
course she must go to him at once.
Gee, that's funny" Sam an
swered, Miss Abbott said-well,
you see, it was this way he paused
to collect his thoughts, 'guess I'd
better go back and tell you all that's
happened since you left When Mr..
Neil came the next morning and got
your note he was about sick. He was
sick anyway, looked terrible, never
saw him take on so :" Sam
stepped on the gas, a grim express
sion around his usually pleasant
mouth. "He sent tor me right away,
and I don't mind telling you that |
told him all l knew He frightened
bit when he heard I'd taken you
to the Y. w. c. A. in the city, and
we both went there right away, and
missed you by Just twenty minutes,
the clerk said. We hung around all
day, hoping you might come back
for something you'd left. Then we
came home. Mr.. Neil was near
crazy, what with worrying about
you and worrying about his mother,
who really was sicker than he'd let
you know.
ooh, Samp Joyce's misery shot
her words through with pain.
"Well, anyway, Mrs. Packard
died four days afterward. Everyone
felt terrible sorry for Mr.. Neil. That

But Roxie didn't. She said to me,

so Roxie believed in mel"
thought Joyce, deeply touched. And
aloud she said, Bless her! | always
felt Roxie could be depended on!'
Suddenly she realized that they
we're more than half way to Man
zanita.
Half way home!
A sob caught in her throat.
The house seemed deserted when
they arrived, and Joyce, who had
been nerving herself for reception
| by "the gang" felt tremendously
relieved. She wanted a little time
before seeing any one, even the
faithful Roxie for whom her heart
was full of gratitude. She slipped
quietly up to her bedroom, and
stretched out on the bed, in tense
silence.
What next? What next? She had
never felt less mistress Of the sit
uation since she had found herself
Frills Packard.
Gradually, as night drew on, she
heard sounds downstairs, and, along
with pangs of hunger, she relaxed
somewhat and began to consider
facing Neil Packard She took
hasty bath, and dressed herself in
one of the pretty frocks that still
hung in her closet. 1t shocked he.
to notice how worn and haggard she
looked; the life she had led in San
Francisco had left its mark.
Sam was standing by the door as
Joyce came down the wide stairs;
he smiled at her with a return of
the old friendliness, and then slipped
out
She was left facing her husband.
All thought of how she should
meet this situation vanished when
she saw Neil. Such an intensity of
unhappiness brooded over his face
that Joyce was instantly stabbed,
and without a moments hesitation
she ran toward him. Here was some
one of whom she was genuinely
fond, in the greatest trouble-no
thought but to comfort him! He did
not once lose his self-control, but
the tragic look III his eyes lightened
when he saw her, and his whole
tense expression softened.
1T was lie, Neil" she said, ct
was a lie that ! knew! Of course L
didn't! Oh my dear, my dear, for

loved your mother too. No one

and asked him to drive to the city for
her.
On the way home she questioned him
with forced interest about all that had
happened in her absence. Sam oblig
ing1y impaired what news he could
think up: Dickie had won the love of
both Roxie and Marcia; Rosita was in

little every day but she was r'aring
to GO and Mrs. Packard would find her
full of pep; there had been small fire
at the packing plant but almost no

listened with an interest that grew i'll

Dickie was at the gate to meet them
and his joyous welcome filled Joyce
with a quite disproportionate sense of
the pleasure Of coming home. But when
she entered the big luxurious bedroom
she was struck for the first time by the
dismaying realization that soon she
would be unable to flee to it for refuge
and escape.
She unpacizcd hurriediy and had a
bath, careful to take negligee IN with

Told Purpose Of Home

In his address, MIR. Detweiler, IS
quoted as saying: '"The Elk who is
eligible to come here at all, comes
not to receive aims, but to share the
home comforts which are his due
as an Elk and man. That all
however pure the intention Of the
donor, that in any way degrades the
recipient, destroys his self respect
or wounds his manliness, is curse
not blessing. The Elk who comes
to this home comes as the guest Of
his brothers, because he has prov
ed himself one who deserves their
respect, their gratitude. On this
exalted plane of mutual love every
resident of this home enters its por-
tails. Enjoying this self-respect he
remains. If he remains a year, 10,
