in love with DR.. Julian Paige, a
declares he will not permit himself to
fall in love with Noel because of the
contrasting worlds in which they live.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY:
Henderson daily dispatch., 1938-07-05

Noel shook her head. mo, he's
not like that at all. He's just
but her voice failed her. She
couldn't tell anybody, not even
frankie, just how she felt about
Julian Paige.
Anyway" frankie went On
more complacently, you'll soon
show him he was all wrong, won't
you?" Then she added, a note of
anxiety coming back to her voice,
"You won't be getting into any
trouble, If I leave you here. will
you. Noe.w
"Of course I WON'T" Noel an
swered blithely. I'm going to
have the time Of my life."
"At least you won't be bored"
frankie said, her voice again
plaintive. IF you only knew how
dreadfully hard it is to keep from
being bored these days, even at
Monte Carlo"
"YouM meet your friends You'll
haYe a nice time," Noel tried to
reassure her. III
AT last Franl1ie's qualns were
set at rest. A few hours later,
she and Noel babe each other an
afectionate goodby. It was, Of
course, only q lark, frankie told
herself confidently. Noel had been
restless Of late. Perhaps It was
time she fell seriously in love. And
it wouldn't. take long for her. to
win the man she wanted, for it
was F'rankie's opinion that there
wasn't alive in the world a man
who could remain Indifferent to
Noers rose and golden beauty and
her gay spirits. So. she departed
happily for California.
It was 10 o'clock that night be-
fore Noel was ready to start on
the first lap Of her adventure.
Stone Gate was closed, the SER
wants gone.
Noel took q taxi to the dingy
rooming house on Court street
where she had engaged a room un-
der the name OF Noel Doran. She
gave the driver a dollar tip, then
suddenly realized that since she
was now a working girl, and en-
tirely dependent on what she
earned for her living, she had no
right to be using taxicabs, much
less tipping the driver dollar bills!
But she wouldn't forget again.
She was beginning to learn all
ready.
Once in her room, she hardly
looked around the dingy quarters,
but tunbled into the hard, rather
lunpy bed, and soon fell asleep. :
The next morning when she
awakened and her eyes fell upon
the discolored wall paper, the
rusty CRATE, and the cheap wooden
furniture, she opened her eyes
wide, startled.
Then remembrance came back.
She brushed back her curls and
smiled, fighting back a feeling OF
inconsistencies for her dainty sun.

Mr.. Brigham Young and Mr.. Gov

and in story in picture and in statue.
Ninety years ago when the Mormons
were driven out of the east, Brigham

appointments. the cool, green tiled

Then she remembered how
bored and restless she had become
with the things that money could
buy. Today was the beginning Of
a new life. She was going to see
it through. She had purposely
arranged things so that even IL
she weakened and wanted to give
up the idea, she couldn't do 1t.
She would stick it out, whether
or no.
She put ON the tweed suit and
went out to get breakfast, a little
past eight, delighted that she had
awakened SO early. Out in the
crisp air, her enthusiasm returned
with bound, as she walked brisk
ly along in the inexpensive oxfords,
q little black velvet beanie" on
the back Of her head.
She was wondering If she would
see Julian today or tonight and
laughed a little to herself at what
he would say IL he should see her
new home.
She found a little cafe similar
to the De Luxe. though not as in
wiling, and ate o good breakfast,
surprised to find that bacon and
scrambled eggs with toast and cof-
fee could taste so good.
Then she bought morning
paper, walked oyer to the small,
deserted Front street park on the
river, and sat down on a bench to
study the ads. She did not notice
that a man who had been stand
ing near the register in the cafe,
when she had taken bill out of
her well-filled billfold to get
changed and pay for her breakfast,
had tinobtrusively followed her.
She was soon engrossed In the
ads. There was q long list under
Female Help Wanted, but nothing
that fitted her peculiar abilities.
In fact, she was at sea as to just
the kind Of work she could do, but
thoroughly confident that there
would be place for her some
where.
She found an ad-for a COVER
ness who must be able to teach
French and music. which she
thought might do. Luckily her
finishing school French" WASN'T
too bad. She tore out the ad,
thinking happily that If she did
see Julian tonight, she'd probably
be able to tell him that she had
already found a place she could

When she picked up. her bag,
which she had left on the bench
beside her, she found the clasp I'M
fastened. Panic stricken she
looked inside. The billfold was
gone. Someone had cleverly re-
moved it from her bag while she
had been sitting there half COW
cred up with newspapers. She had
little less than 81 in her change
purse.

CHAPTER 3

AFTER SHE. had paid Off the
servants at Stone Gate and at
tended to other bills, Noel had a
little over a hundred dollars in
her billfold. She smiled to think
that 1t was almost the same
amount her grandfather had had
when he sailed to the United States
to lay the foundation for the
Shayne fortune.
frankie, Noels aunt, was a
pretty frivolous woman Of middle
age, with touched-up hair and a
face from which all the lines had
been carefully erased by slillful
beauty technicians.
Just now she was in the hands
Of her maid, lying back among the
cushions of the chaise Tongue, hay-
ing q pedicure. Why a pedicure,
Noel did not know. Perhaps mere
ly to kill time. But Noel loved
her aunt devotedly in spite Of all
her little affectations.
Come in, darling" frankie
greeted her in her chirrupy voice.
Then when she saw Noel wearing
the cheap tweed suit and linen
blouse, she gave a little scream.
what is it, darling? A masque-
rade?"
Noel lighted a cigaret and
glanced at the maid. frankie dis
missed her at once and turned
again to Noel, her eyes avid with
curiosity. Els it some kind Of a
game?"
/; Noel hesitated. She hadn't quite
decided how to break the news to
frankie, who was quite capable
of protesting strenuously when
ever she disapproved Of anything
Noel proposed to do. But in spite
of her little huttery ways, Frankie
did have an understanding nature.
u. So Noel decided to take the
plunge. s'If you had fallen In love
with a man." she began, land he
practically told you that you were
a parasite and q useless cunberer
Of the earth, what would you do?Y
frankie sat up on the chaise
Tongue, her faded blue eyes wide,
"Darling, did someone actually
dare ?n She stopped and drew
her lips together in a straight line.
"Well, I wouldn't let him get away
with it. I'd make him take it
back word for word"
That's exactly what I'm going
to do" Noel told her. I'm going
to stay right here, get a job and
show him that I can make my own
living as well as he can make his"
! frankie clasped her fragile
hands. "But.; darling, It all sounds
very romantic and thrilling, and /
always did think you had some of
your grandfather's stubbornness
and spirit. But what on earth
would I do at -Bains with
out you. It would just be too tire

Iplaintively. ~

CHAPTER 2

THE MORNING after Julian's
call Noel started burning all her
bridges. She was the type of girl
who never did things by halves.
When she found that her uncle
was in financial difficulties she
turned over to him 100000 in
cash and negotiable securities.
This represented a years income,
and left her with a very small
amount indeed.
Then Noel went shopping. She
bought a cheap tweed suit. a pair
of low-heeled oxfords, and a small
felt that. Then a few blouses OF
linen and near silk. Things in
direct contrast to what she wore.
When she had finished shopping,
she realized with a little thrill that
she was close to the Medical Arts
building where Julian's Offices were
located. So she went and waited
just outside the big revolving
doors, and it wasn't very long be-
fore she saw Julian coming
Through them, pretty dark
haired girl beside him, talking ami
matedly.
He would have walked past Noel
without seeing her, but she put out
a hand and called his name. He
stopped short and smiled. why,
Noel, what a pleasant surprised"
The dark girl stopped, waited a
moment, then went on. There was
something about the way she held
her head that showed she wasn't
any too pleased because Julian had
stopped. "She's in love with him."
Noel told herself, conscious Of a
sudden jealous pain:
Then she turned her eyes to
Julian. Thought you might take
me to lunch"
GLADLY, only Wen have to go
across the street, as I haven't
much time"
They walked across the street.
The De Luxe Cafe was one of
those paper-napkin kind Of places,
Julian explained, but added that it
was quite sanitary and the food
was well prepared.
Noel looked about the neat
white-tiled place with interest.
This was something that belonged
to Julian's world. The place where
most Of his meals were eaten, as
lshe found out later.
AS soon as they were seated,
Noel told him that she had changed
her plans about going to Cali
fornia, and later to Paris with her
aunt.
Julian looked questioningly into
the sweet, ardent face under the
smart hat, which hadn't cost less
than SIS, though of course he
hadn't any idea of it's cost. He
only knew in his mans vague way
that it was very fetching hat
indeed and that it enhanced the
delicate gold Of Noel's hair and the
dreamy blue OF her eyes.
"You see," Noel went on blithely,
1T just struck me that I know
absolutely nothing of this city
where I was born, and which my
grandfather helped to build.
haven't spent more than two
weeks here since I was a chNd."
Julian did not meet her eyes.
Perhaps he was afraid she could
see that her news brought him an
undeniable happiness. The thought
Of an ocean between himself and
this slender girl, who meant a
great deal more to him than he
would acknowledge, had been dis
turbing. though he knew for his
own peace of mind, It would be far
better for her to go.
