1--WE should've taken a lunch and
gone in swimming" Angie regretted,
tooling her chariot along the road
by the river. I'VE were saps not to
think Of it."
THEY passed the country club
Il where two or three men in
white linen with caps worn hind
side foremost played golf.
Beyond lay the pool. red and blue
caps bobbing on the surface. A tall
girl in a pale green suit did a swan
dive.
Angie stopped the car. "Swell,"
she observed. Wish I could do
that!"
She peered across through the
heat haze. That's the Lawrence
girl" she observed with relish. "Bet
she brought that suit from Paris.
She sure has swell clothes"
Angie sounded envious. Bill wrig-
gled uncomfortably.
Whats the matter? Don't you
like it here?" Angie lifted an eye
brow in his direction. Its nice and
cool Best place I've been today"
Bill plainly was out Of sorts. He
grunted, Cant hang around here
staring like kids outside a candy
shop. Peoplell think we're crazy"
Guess you don't like any Of your
friends to see you with me, that's
what" the girl said without rancor,
starting the engine.
Bills laugh sounded family dis
agreeable. MY friends! At the
country club? There's a taught"
Angie said, MY Aunt Mollie told
me the other day your father ran
with all the big bugs when he was
young. Said by rights your family
belonged with that crowd, but you
don't have the money. It's true,
isn't it? Doesn't everybody think
your sisters going to marry Dan
Cardigan? And aren't the Cardi-
gans just Ike John D. Rockefeller,
pretty near?"
Everybody round here's crazy"
BIZ barked. Just because Monnie
and Dan went to high school to-
gether-" He left the sentence
hanging.
Guess they're pretty crazy about
each other, just the same" Angie
said coolly.
This burg makes me SICK" Bill
ODare told her, lighting a cigaret.
You can't take a deep breath with
out having it in the town paper.
Monnie's got lots of friends. Dan
Cardigan's only one of them"
Sure, know. Give me one
Angie demanded, reaching over and
taking the cigaret from his lax
fingers. "Stingy!"
DILL looked at her piquant pro-
You're cute, do you know it?"
he demanded. You're a lot better
tempered than most of those girls
in that country club gang, even
though they" He pretended to
cough. Angie laughed.
Finish it, big boy. Say they
think I'm dirt and something to
wipe their feet on. It's no news
to me-"
81 didn't mean that" Bill said
awkwardly.
Angles laugh hadn't a trace of
malice in it.
L know all about them" she said.
When they come into the shop
they don't know I'm there. It's all
right with me. I'm not sensitive.
wrap up their chocolate nougat
and give them the ice just like they
do me. Specially that Lawrence
girl. She sure thinks she's the
catS!"
Why don't you like her?' Bill in
quired idly.
Angie considered this. ct don't
now-exactly," she said slowly
Guess maybe it's because she's lust
fake. What I mean, she buffers
everybody up and makes the per-
son she's with think he's the cats
too. Then she gets her claws going
and oh, kitty, kitty, can she
Scratch!"
Shes been friends with Monnie
for some time. Monnie likes her
I guess" Bill said.
She must have a reason then. "
Angie decided. Friend of mine
works at their house. Maybe !
mentioned her"
Bill WINGED. He was no snob. but
1t was a little CALLING occasionally
TO realize that the girl he loved
and whom he intended to marry
consorted with the servants of the
people he'd once known as equals
"A NGIE caught the expression in
1 n the tail of her eye and re-
allied instantly what it meant.
You don't like that" she said
shrewdly. You don't like having
me know Hetty Link. who's the
Lawrente girls maid
Its nothing to me-" Bill as
sured her Grossly. Its none of my
doggone business" :.
Well, she's a funny kid" Angie
pursued. shes got a case on the
LawrenceS' chauffeur. Jim Hewitt

to the movies a lot and tries a
