CHAPTER XVII
"Look," Sally coaxed brightly,
sif YOU come along with me to the
Club for bite probably Father Will
be home by the time we get back.
Then you can see him and talk to
him :"
II don't like to see you in a
place of that sort" Michael
Heatheroe argued.
"Michael, that's terribly sweet
of you" Sally's dimples faded. In
their place grave wistfulness
brooded. IT do - 1 mean it! l
think that's terribly sweet. But
don't you see I'll be perfectly all
right with you, there? You're so
very strong, Michael :"
Her voice was soft. Her brown
LIQUID eyes were luminous. For
the moment Sally was all woman.
She was Gree in pink lace dress.
"All right" Michael said
grudgingly. But I'm against it,
don't forget that"
you're a lamb" She laid
fiuttering, warm hand on MS
wrist. "I'll do something for you
some time. Besides Father Will
be pleased. He said you were
such a sterling young man. Hon
estly, that was what he said
Thanks" said Michael, getting

caught glimpse of DR.. Kaye be-
side her, his thin, aristocratic
face sharply cut above the black
and white of his dinner clothes.
Sally, driving rather intently,
did not see them Here we are"
she cried gaily, jumping out.
Michael, we'll let the man park
it, shall we? l don't know exactly
where :"
But the doorman was not in
sight. A waiter. looking rather

isn't he queer?" Sally mar

Michael pushed open the big,
drilled door and went in. The
marble-floored hall was empty. A

where. She, too, looked rather
disheveled. She viewed the new
corners with something like sus-
picion.
"Will someone find me a table,
please" Sally demanded with
hauteur. Miss Moon!"
There was doorman, after all.
He came on the run.
'.What goes on here, anyhow"
Sally wanted to know.
The doorman looked blank. 1t
was, she knew, one of the best
things doormen did. But Sally
was curious. There was about the
place curious air of tenseness.

tables around the pool, to which
