ported to Gayle, that flustered miss
decided this meal perhaps should
progress informally. 6
1t was a happy decision. Mr..
Mortified came in beaming. He
hadn't eaten in the big dining room
since a group of mining men dined
there with him last winter, and the
assembly of young people brought
an invisible spark of something to
it now. They and the flowers, and
the somehow brighter lights in the
great crystal chandelier, and the
brilliantly busted furniture, and
the floor that shone, and the con-
tagious giggling of little Tempe
Hyde. Even the quietest of the six
girls, Latin beauty named Lola
Montesa, was visibly elated.
The old millionaire paused at the
big double door to look on for a
moment, beaming.
"Glory, what a sight" he ex-
claimed, and meant it. Everything
but music!"
"Ohw Gayle spoke quickly. Il
can play the piano. Jeremy hasn't
come down yet. Shall we sing one
song before dinner?"
1--WE shall"
The grand piano was IN con-
servatory off the dining room. Only
old-time tune Gayle could remem-
Der at the moment was one that
had been recently revived, so she
plunged into it's lively tempo
Come on and hear,
Come on and hear,
Alexander's Ragtime band!"
The singing began instantly be-
cause the other youths knew 1t.
Even old Mr.. Merrifield knew 1T,
but from an earlier day. The piano
was out of tune, the harmony was
faulty, but the pleasure was hlgh.
Jeremy Tucker came down the
winding staircase onto this scene
of genuine gaiety, stood looking at
the group with a certain awe.
Five minutes later they were all
at table. Each stood respectfully,
waiting for Mr.. Merrifield to sit
down first, but instead he lifted his
fine old white head upward and
closed his eyes.
God in Heaven" he prayed, II
am fool at times. Forgive me.
Make me worthy of the pleasure
brought to me this day. Share the
pleasure with these young people.
Bless them. Oh, bless them, God Of ,
us all. Amenm
They sat down, and Gayle Dixon
looked quickly at Bill Bailey.
strangely, she caught his eye, and
she observed that he, too, was hav-
ing trouble with a lump in his
throat.

Mr.. Weems explained when Gayl'
inquired. Dessert was a lemon-mill
sherbet-a perfect tangy after
math to a somewhat hearty meal
Wallace the cook had to be SEN

thusiastic praise. Being quite hui

But I'm acting as hostess,
Gayle interrupted the quick flow
of suggestions, land so call on
that well-known public speaker,
Miss Tempe Hyde!"
Tempe turned pink even as she
giggled, and the laughter grew in
a crescendo around her. She ducked
under a napkin. She tried to dodge
under the table itself, but she was
crowded rather close to Jeremy
Tucker, who sat at Gayle's right,
and so could not find physical es-
cape. Everybody else began ap-
plauding.
IT hate you, Gayle Dixon" the
smaller girl finally shrieked, "but
I'll make a speech if Jeremy will.
It's his party, not mine"
Jeremy turned out to be a gen.
tleman. Somewhat solemnly he got
to his feet, addressed the others
formally, and did say surprising
three minutes of good words. He
thanked them for their kindness
in arranging this welcome. lie
spoke haltingly of friendships

and sat down. A harmless, colorless
speech.
The applause was polite, but the
attention flew right back to
Tempe. Still pink, she sat there in
giggly misery.

She could not ignore the chorus
now. whatever will talk about?

Something deep" Bill prompt

Everybody laughed at that pros
pect. Tempe, pretty and dainty as
a pom-pom, just didn't look pro-
found. But she inhaled deeply and
stood up-a good sport what ever
the pain!
II choose economics-I hope
you'll forgive me, Mr.. Merrifield,
but here I go:
There was a young man who

He put in his money bags all
he could spare.
But alas for the poor economi-
cal moocfer-
The future arrived and the

"Oh, gee"
The menu was complete. Wal
lace, the Mortified cook, knew his
business. Even the gardener had
been told and had responded, so
that the dining table was already
lovely with flowers when Gayle in
spected it. She had but few sug-
gestions to make and she found
two kitchen helpers, besides Wal
lace and Graham and the gardener,
anxious to carry them out at once.
Graham begged a moment to in
troduce a new maid-servant, c.

added to the staff that afternoon.

said, "she is to be your personal
maid, miss"
Gayle took a deep breath, and
nodded. She was afraid to speak
for a long moment, lest she ex-
plode.
She stayed in a sort of cloud
like daze for the ensuing hour. The
six girls came back, as ordered.
Gayle asked Tempe to help her
think" Together they planned
seats at the table. There would be
four men-Mr. Merrifeld, Jeremy,
Mr.. Weems and Bill. And seven
girls, picked for loneliness and ap-
parent intelligence. Gayle backed
the girls up into a quiet corner
and almost growled at them.
For Pete's sake, kids, be bright
and cheerful tonight" she COM
manded. understand? No solemn
faces"
But what are we to do? What
is our work, and who"
"Sh-h-h-h! You'll learn. Just be
glad"
Graham had no chance to an
nounce formally to everybody that
dinner was served. He had to round
up Mr.. Merrifeld from the third
floor, Mr.. Weems from the second,
Bill Bailey from a far wing, and
finally Jeremy from the deep re-
cesses of the library. When he re-

Tempe sat down, blushing at her

the table so that dishes jumped.

CHAPTER SIX

FIRST AND most important
point to remember is-our being
here must be made entirely logical
to Jeremy Tucker" Bill said that
for the fourth time. He was in a
huddle again with Gayle.
"All right, Bill. But we've ad-
mitted that. We've talked for
hours. It's nearly dinner time. The
girls will be coming back. And we
are all bound to meet Jeremy again
tonight. We must have a good
story and stick to it. We ought to
tell it to Mr. Mortified in ad-
vance,"
"Lordy" said Bill, stumped for
once.
You played football in college.
What else did you do?"
"Dramatics. Besides studies,
mean" Bill spoke as if his college
career had, therefore, been wasted.
He gazed glumly at nothing.
Amateur dramatics? Little the
alter work, Bill?"
yep. Great fun, but-well,
Gayle, I had lot of ideals about
being a stage director, or maybe
a movie director some day. So far
I haven't found or made even a
crack where I could crawl into that
profession"
But you aren't licked?"
mo. Certainly not. Nobody ever
licked a Bailey. Coach used to say
that L"
81 understand. You were a grand
halfback, I've heard. Now listen to
me-Mr. Merrifield ordered you to
take charge of the six girls you
and he hired. You are to be their
boss. You have to think up some
thing constructive for them to do.
Naturally you must draw on your
best talents and experiences, and
since foot Ill seems to be beyond
our consideration, I suggest dra-
matics."
Gayle was talking ever so seri-
ously.
"You mean"
II mean, Bill, don't girls some
times act in plays? Or work
around amateur productions
Wouldn't it be entirely logical for
crowd of young people to"
"SA-A-AYm
Bill suddenly jabbed a finger at
her. An idea had struck him.
Gayle's idea
Gayle, you're wonderful! Sure!
We can pretend that Mr.. Merri-
field, already given to philan-
throphy, is sponsoring a new Little
Theater. I've been wracking nv
brains for way to use this big
mansion and its grounds. Those
two huge rooms downstairs that
open together will make a swell
theater! Put a stage at that east
end. Ballyhoo it all. Well have
Jeremy surrounded by fun and ex-
cltement before he knows it,"
There was another 10 minutes of
hurried talk - mostly exhultant
monologue by Bill Bailey, who
could be morose and worried one
moment and in the figurative
clouds the next. Gayle was happy
for having solved his problem for
him. Or at least having given him
start.
Graham, the butler, had been
told to expect the six young ladies
back for dinner and, surprisingly
enough, Mr.. Weems came to Gayle
at $40 p. m. with a written menu.
I'VE have had no feminine
guests here in so many years, Miss
Dixon" he apologized, that THAT
