lous. An impulse to laugh swept
over her. She knew before he
spoke what Jerry would say.
T'm tied up at home tonight.
Sorry" That and a charming smile.
And her guess was correct. He said
it almost in those very words.
when are you returning to New
York;" he asked after a moment.
Jerry sat up straight, reached for
his hat and made as II to rise. He
was going now. She would not see
him again.
"New York;" Sheila repeated.
"Oh, we have 40 weeks booking.
We've hardly been out month"
Long season, isn't it,"
"A long season. Yes"
He rose, twirling his hat in his
hands, facing her.
"Sheila, don't look that way,
DEAR" he began, his expression sud-
denly tender.
So she was making 1t as plain
! as that that she was miserable. Her
lips trembled. Was she going to
cry?
"Sheila!"
The corridor outside was empty.
There was no one to see. Jerrys
arms, outstretched, enclosed her.
"How could you hurt me so?" she
asked later, reproachfully.

"Well, maybe"
DUT later, in her dressing room
- at the theater, Sheila reviewed
the scene uncomfortably. HOW she
had begged him! Her face grew
crimson at the thought. How she
had pleaded with him to dine with
her! She, Sheila Shayne. who had
been so proud of her independence!
Leaving Jerry In the lobby, she
had hurried to her room, dressed
carefully and called Henri, the
head waiter, on the telephone. She
had given the dinner order. The
party was to be at her expense.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XXXIII
Terry and Sheila entered the
side door of the Grandmore Ho'
tel The corridor extending to that
door led past cigar and news stands
to the lobby. But near the entrance
there was small parlor. usually
vacant, known as the Rose Room
With swiftly beating heart
sheila preceded Jerry into this
parlor. The meZZanine lounge was
much too public for their talk.
There was no one else there
sheila sat down on the brocade
covered divan and Jerry dropped
beside her. Terribly sorry | can't
ask you to dinner tonight, Sheila,"
he said. "How about tea?" He
smiled. IT don't often indulge in
that sort Of thing but maybe it's
one Of your habits. Do they serve
it here or must we go to the dining
room?"
She knew and Jerry knew per-
fectly we'll that they did not serve
tea in the Rose Room. They did
not, as a matter of fact, serve 1t
anywhere. When tea was served in
Spencer It was served at someone's
home.
You mean that you have an en-.
gagement?" Sheila asked. Then,
Frightening. she added, why not
drop around after the show to-
night? We are leaving at midnight
but can have my things packed
and ready. Maybe" cher voice
shook a little) you could take me
for a little driver"
The rising infection as she fin
ished the sentence softened the fact
that she was mtsiing the advances
She watched the young man at her
side. jerry was leaning back
against the divan, one leg crossed
over the other, swinging easily. His
silver cigaret case was open in his
hand.
SUDDENLY he snapped the case
- shut. And in that instant the
situation became clear to Sheila
Jerry had made love to her. He had
almost asked her to marry him
He had said that he loved her

York. Well-he had done that He
had gone to New York but not to
