CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

PEE WEE TYLER could stand
almost anything but ridicule. If she
hadn't seen from the laughter of
her friends that Cholly O'Neil had
put her in the position of defending
herself, she might lave gone 81
persisting in annoying her.
But with IS much grandeur as she
could muster, she picked up anoth-
er glass of champagne and walked
away with an air of being too much
put out by being forced to mingle
with the hoi polloi to bother fur
Their.
! Sensing that the crowd liked
Cholly because she had been truth
full and shown her Unborn Irish
pride, Brent suggested tactfully:
How about a little music before
supper, Dove? Play for us, Cholly."
That was just the right tonic for
Cholly. Romany was grateful to
Brent for his thoughtfulness. Chol-
lily, without hesitating, strobe into
the lounge and sat down at the
piano. Only two or three couples
followed. But she had only played
a few bars when others, hearing
the lovely melody, went in to crowd
around and watch the little white
hands on the keyboard.
Very angry, Cholly gave vent to
her spleen on the piano. And she
had never played better in her life.
Just to show Pee Wee Tyler she
knew good music, too, she began
with the classics. Then, defiantly,
she broke into jazz, knowing it
would be enjoyed more by Dover's
friends.
Dove watched her with eyes in
which amusement and affection
were mingled. Throughout the eve
ming he stayed at her side, deliber-
lately showing Pee Wee and the
Gold Coasters where he stood on
the subject of farmers daughters.
Later without Romany at the
bar, Brent let it be known that she
Twas the niece of Cissie Harlowe.
That, of course, put her in the pic
jture in the best possible light. Cis-
Isle had never bothered much about
!Who was who in the Blue Book, but
she was known to be very wealthy.
That, those in the know thought,
explained why Romany Halle
should have made friends with a
girl who was poor and earned her
bread and butter playing in a mu-
sic store. She was democratic, like
her beautiful aunt, and astonish-
ingly like her in looks.
Romany received several invita-
lions during the evening, which
pleased her no end. and delighted
Brent. She wondered about the sud-
den interest they showed in her,
but presumed it was because some
lone had read about her being the
niece Of Cissie Harlowe in the radio
columns, Cholly, she noticed, was
not included in the invitations. The
crowd might find her amusing as
Dover Hayworth's guest who
played the piano so we'll, but that
wouldn't make them accept her in
their own homes or on their own
boats.
1t was three o'clock in the morn

Cholly WINGED slightly. Dover
laughed.
Pop would take you right to his
heart. But the mater is little set
on the Blue Book. She always looks
my friends up, almost asks for a
genealogical chart" y
Il mustn't cause you any trouble
with your mother" Cholly said I'M
happily. She'll probably hear
about tonight and my battle with
Pee Vice."
Maybe not" Dove shrugged.
"And what if she does? Pm old
enough to select my own friends.
Lord knows, darling, you're MOTH
..lg to apologize for. Some day
you'll be great pianist, and they'll
all be proud to have met you
then"
He kissed her again, lightly, and
Cholly sighed.
well, anyway, you can come up
and let me cook Sunday dinner for
you. I won't tell"
Ashamed of me, eh?" Dove &C.
cused her, grinning. "I'll come to
dinner, but always pay back my
bread and butter I'll take you to
dinner at Landau's the next Sum-
day."
mo" Cholly shook her head
swiftly. Your mother wouldn't like
it, and 1 don't want to cause any
trouble for you. I like you-and I
want to be friends. But we must
be sensible ABOUT it,"
You amaze me-" Dover looked
at her closely. II swear believe
you mean it."
II certainly do" Cholly treasured
him. You're nice boy and a real
person. But this poor girl-rich boy
business doesn't work."
You're afraid" Dove looked
down at her, his eyes suddenly
troubled, wed fall in love. Is that
it 2" .... .,..".4. -.
"Oh, no.. Cholly denied quickly,
flushing. "Of course, know you
wouldn't fall in love with me-"
He' laughed softly.
II could be so mad about you in
about a week, Cholly O'Neil, that
I'd never be able to let you 60, and
you know it"
This" Cholly told him firmly,
has gone far enough. Don't you
think We'd better drive along"
Dove sighed.
II want to kiss you again, but
if I do I'll spoil beautiful friend
8 IL u aai ID il II lightly, then
'"S TEL Sl' me-" he asked as they mo-
along South Shore drive, "Wfiat
was bothering you when you came
aboard tonight? Or do you want
to-" :,
Cholly hesitated. Then she told
him that a friend of hers had come
into the Leo-Dane store intoxicated
and she had almost lost her 1on:
From what Brent Nelson had told -
him, Dover knew it must be Terry
O'Rourke. She was surprised when
he asked her little grimly:
"Your-fiance? :.
INV ex-fance." Cholly looked
straight ahead.
Dover was silent moment, then
he said seriously:
Il meant what 1 said Cholly'
about helping you with any finan.
cial worries you may have. Do you
have to help support your family?
She nodded, but told him with
spirit: -
THANK you. But I don't borrow
money"
He said bitterly: Dam money!
What good is it to me if my friends
can't have some of it. You're the
first girl I've ever seen refuse
money with no string to it. I'm 60
ing to worry about you, and 1 don't
like it,"

Naturally, Pee Wee Tyler expect
ed Dover to take her home. She hid
her rage with poor effort when
Dove suggested Loren Harper drive
her to the Tyler estate and took
Cholly into his own car at the
downtown pier who're they locked,
Driving home in the moonlight,
Dove stopped the machine in a love-
ly spot in Hyde park. When he put
his arm around her, she did not
pull away.
You didn't have too bad a time,
little Cholly," he asked tAcn. did
you?"
NO" she said trltl;:l:,,:::, , , Il Was
pretty miserable al 4ayt. But after
I got so mad I felt Cetrer."
That's the Irish in you" he
laughed. Then he bent Closer and
kissed her quickly
When Cholly did not resist, he
put both arms around her and his
lips were warm and eager on hers.
She stirred, but did not want to
pull away He'd been so kind, and
Cholly was naturally affectionate
as child toward those she liked.
So she responded to his affection
without fear OF the consequences.
Dover. sensing her trust, drew
away, smiling down at her Whim-
sically.
Sweet child" he said tenderly.
You kiss like a baby"
She turned her head from him,
suddenly self-conscicus.
But I believe I like baby kisses"
He leaned over and kissed her
warm, soft cheek. You bring out
my better self Cholly."
Why" size asked then, were
you so nice to me this evening,
Dove? Pee Wee Tyler will never
forgive you. One of her friends told
me you and she are engaged"
That" Dove shook his head neg
atively, lis slightly exaggerated.
MY family and her family would
like us to be. But I'm a little stub
born on the matter of having a wife
thrown at my head"
THAT makes sense" Cholly ap-
proved. well, I guess you'll fix it
all up tomorrow. She won't stay
mad long. I'm sorry if I caused any
trouble losing my Irish temper"
Dove grinned..
ut was marvellous. l wouldn't
have missed it for the world"
sCholly sighed. !.
IT certainly cooked my goose
telling them the truth about my
self. I guess I wasn't very smart"
Dove put an arm around her

"You didn't hurt yourself with
me-" he said seriously. II thought
YOU were magnificently courageous.
Not that being a farmers daughter

How different our lives have
