It must be grand to be able to play football the way you did, with everybody hollering your name every time you moved.” He blushed boyishly. “Oh, I say!” he protested. “You make me sound like—" “Well, it’s true, ain't it? I feel like telling the manager so when he gets off that sarcastic stuff about no college hero ever being able to play the game without a lot of applause. Or saying that when it comes to real nerve the felows do the dirty work have twice as much—and don’t ex- pect to be patted on the back and tucked into bed every night.” Don's eyes darkened. “Did he say that?” : Penelope hesitated. She knew just what she was doing but had no right to involve her chief. “Well, not exactly,” she amended. «But that’s his idea. I guess he's getting ‘kind of touchy because every time one of J. T.s pets quits, J. T. lands on him.” She looked at him expectantly but he said nothing. He seemed to be considering the silent pool that re- flected the slender grace of the wil- low or perhaps the shimmer of gold on the tranquil river beyond. But she had a feeling he saw neither. And swiftly she felt compunction —_as she should have, for under the veneer of partisanship every word she had said she had definitely bar- bed. “I suppose,” he began slowly—and surprisingly, “that there is something in what the manager says. But just the same—"' He stopped there and Penelope lit- erally held her breath. “But just the same I don’t think I'm a quitter,” he finished. He looked up but Penelope said nothing. He was, she realized, argu- ing not with her but with himself. “I suppose,” he admitted honestly, «I do like popularity and applause.” «I'm rather keen for both myself,” admitted Penelope, as honestly, and, for a moment, forgetting her role. He did not notice her lapse. “The real question,” he enlarged, “is what it all leads to. I had an idea that it might lead to something worth while. But now—well, I'm beginning to wonder.” Penelope forgot her role again. “It can’t help but be worth while—if you stick it out,” she broke in. “Can't you see that?” ’ “I may be dumb—but I can’t. fact—" “You In forget,” she interrupted again, “that having college men like you is J. Ts pet idea. It hasn't worked out very well yet, but that has him all the more determined that it. should. He—why, if you only stick _. he'll go out of his way to push you ahead. I—I only wish I had the same chance, I—" She stopped short, conscious something new in his eyes. “Gee,” she amended swiftly, striv- ing desperately to get back into her role of Mabe again, “I certainly do argue both ways, don’t I? Ma says 1 talk like a nut sometimes.” He, however, continued to gaze at her. He was, she knew, trying to fathom her. And suddenly she felt a perfectly preposterous, wholly un- of precedented sense of panic. She rose swiftly, almost hectically. “I'm always butting into other people’s business anyway,” she added. “Y guess I'd beter paddle my own canoe.” He rose, his trim six feet towering over her slim five-feet-two. He said nothing for a moment—a pregnant moment. It could not be anything but that, for he, after all, was only twenty- four and she but twenty-two. His eyes sought, hers and hers met them, curiously defiant. But only briefly. They fell as he spoke. ’ «” «On, wad,’ ” he quoted, half whimsically, half wryly, “ ‘some pow- er the giftie gie us, to see oursel’s as others see us’ . . . Well, you cer- tainly did.” Penelope said nothing—what was there to say? “You were very clever,” he went on. “Almost clever enough to get away with it. I all but accepted you at your face value.” He grinned down at her and again something feminine stirred in Pene- lope. “Well, what's the matter with my face?” she inquired, on an impish im- pulse. No use now, she knew, to be Mabe. He did not answer that but his to pretend eyes darkened, for a moment, as wa- ter does when a strong gust sweeps. over it. Then, abruptly: “You did rather ache to tell me I was acting like a spoiled baby, didn’t you?” he challenged. Penelope saw no reason to deny it. “Weren't you?” she asked. “T imagine I must have seemed so,” he admitted. “I did expect a bit more ‘attention—and approval—from the powers that be.” “But can’t you see that that would only be stressing the favoritism idea —and that wouldn't have made it any | easier among the men?” “Naturally not,” he conceded. Pen- elope felt his eyes seek hers again. “What made you pretend to be—well, the sort of girl you so unmistakably, are not?” Penelope felt she might as well be direct. “Because,” she replied coolly, “jt gave me a chance to sting you— without giving you a chance to get back. He grinned swiftly, delightedly. “You did a thorough job,” he assured her. “But why should you bother? There must have been some reason. Something that eludes me.” “There was. I'm private sec to the manager, you see. And I knew if — _— ee - — f you quit it would make trouble for the manager—at least a letter from /J. T. that would spoil his day and | mine too. Men are that way, you | know.” He grinned anew. Then: “I had ' about decided to quit,” he admitted— Ine did not, she noted, sidestep the ‘verb. i “On,” she said serenely, “I knew that!” He did not look surprised, nor did he ask her how she knew. «But I think I'll stick around in- stead,” he added. “So your afternoon has not been wasted, after all.” * Penelope herself did not feel that it had been, somehow. But she did not tell him so. She merely smiled and moved toward her canoe. “Must you go?” he asked swiftly, a new note in his voice. i He didn’t want her to. And he no longer spoke with lazy assurance. | Penelope wavered. She didn’t, some how, want to go herself. And that being so, why—be silly? He was, really, awfully nice and— “Do you prefer green olives, or ripe ones?” she asked abruptly. He did not look suprised, merely grinned. “Ripe ones, of course,” he said. “I think,” sommented Penelope, “that almost constitutes an introduc- tion.” And with that she reseated herself. Casually enough, to all out- er seeming, but with a certain quick- ening in her. That was inevitable. . Experience—or perhaps the word should be experiments—had made her wary. Of, that is, the way a man will ever misinterpret a girl's mo- tives. This man, she had determined, would have no mistaken conception of what she thought of him. She had gone to him not to bind his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, but to apply caustic. She had done that and still well, he was obviously as other men. i Penelope stayed at her peril—and Penelope knew it. The soft sunshine and the dusky fragrance of the trees encompassed them as they talked of many things. And presently Penelope got the vol- ume of verse and read bits from that. And still later she produced ham sandwiches and ripe olives and shar- ed them with him. | The pale enchantment that preced- es the sunset came on and then the sunset itself flamed into glory across the western sky. For a spell they were silent. Then the sunset faded and she came to her feet. “I must go,” she announced—and offered him her hand. He took it and held it, perhaps a bit longer than he should. Then: “Do you by any chance come here Sun- days, too?” he asked. “Usually,” admitted Penelope— which was a considerable concession for Penelope. In fact: “Mabe herself might have said the same thing,” Penelope in- formed Penelope as Penelope paddled back upsteream through the glamor- ous gloom. Nevertheless, she didn’t care. Not with the memory of that which had leaped into his eyes as she had spoken. _ “But. supposing it rains. tomoe- row?” he had suggested almost ap- prehensively. Penelope had not told him so but she had felt very sure it wouldn't rain or that it wouldn't matter much if it did. Because—well, because he was so nice and because he liked ripe olives and sunsets savored in silence and Edna St. Vincent Millay and because she knew now that he certainly wasn’t the sort to quit when there was anything definite in sight. Even if it should rain Sunday. — Hearst's International Cosmopolitan. | | | eee fy Aen J. W. WHITE & CO REBUY : BRITISH BUSINESS. . J. W. White and Co., Inc.,, of New York City, have announced the re- purchase by them of J. G. White and Co., Ltd of London, and in the forth- coming annual report will disclose the sale of the J. G. White Manage- ment Corporation to J. H. Pardee and J. I. Mange, president and vice presi- dent, respectively, of the J. G. White Management Corporation. The latter company, it is now disclosed, was sold early in 1928, although no formal an- nouncement has heretofore been made. These changes leave J. G. White and Co., Inc., with two subsid- iaries, namely, the J. G. White En- gineering Corporation and J. G. White and Co., Ltd., of London. The British company, organized more than twenty years ago, by J. G. ' White, was sold to their interests at the outbreak of the World war. In- creasing foreign business of J.
