"Here we've been for two whole weeks and Lois doesn't know anybody who Is anybody except Plerpont Stafford's boy, and I'm afraid he's only fllrtlna; with her." Dr. Hoyee had not been engaged to pre scribe for Mlns Lois Freeman's ambitions, so ho changed the subject. "It's hard to believe that there is a blizzard In New York today when you look at thane flow ers and are those hal f-d reused mobs wal lowing in tha surf."

Dr. Itoyce came to her defense with a curious warmth. "They're driving her with too tight a rein, fhe'a too blg hi arted and brave and wlee to be treated as a child much longer." , The old man sighed; "We fathers with motherless girls to raise are pretty help lets cattle. I can send a criminal to the chair, but I can't punish my daughter; she does what she pleases, and It rarely please we. , And Plerpont Stafford can run string of banks and make a rail road system eat out of his hand, but that girl of his has hlm-I believe they my 1affaloed'or Is It 'Plttsbtirghed?

Tomorrow I may let you have dip." "I don't feel quite up to golf." "Go on; don't disobey. You're worse than than " Another scream from the corridor gave hlin the missing word. "You're worse than aioria." He lifted the Judge from his chair, thrust a. bag of golf clubs Into his arms and ordered him off. The, Judge pleaded: Who'll play with me? Will you?" "Not much! .You've had enough of me for today. Here's your daughter. Miss Lois, let me Introduce your father. Take him around the links once, won't you?" Loli obeyed with more grace than gradousness. Iler thoughts were on the two string to her bow. Phe had had to content herself for her first week at Plm Beach with the attention of nich ard Freneau, a young broker In charge of a branch office at tho Hoyal Poln rlsna. But recently shi had oaught the eye of Pavld Stafford, and she had tried to hold It. Freneau was handsome much ton good looking for his own good or the good of any girl or woman he fo cused hi eye upon. Freneau was mag jiftlo and he wss grrat fun, but Pavld Stafford was good business. To capture the son of Plerpont Stafford would be high finance something tremendous. The Judge, her fsther, kept his eyes on Lola more than on the golf ball, and landed in the bunker with regularity, lie know that his daughter was up to some mischief, but he was sure that It was not the Innocent mischief of the ob streperous Gloria. e Gloria Stafford, exquisite In her bath ing suit, wag like a bisque figure come to life very much to life as she stood outside hor bedroom door and held the knob against ber govern;sa, who tugged in vain at the opposite knob. Then Olurla let go, and the governed went stagger ing backward across the room, while Gloria with, shrieks of laughter mado lier wsy off and down tho corridor and out to the tieacli. The beach being no leas than Palm Peach, she dodged among throng of tha well-known, the much photographed, who were also making their way, though ' mora sedately, to the surf. It was 13 o'clock, the fashionable bathing time. To he seen In the water more than halt an hour earlier or more than half an hour late was socially fatal.

She could see some of thein grinning st her. Her brother Pavld openly ridiculed her and splashed water over her. She pretended not to notice him, but, reaching her father at last, she hurled hereelf upon him and ducked him under the water. Then she scrambled to the beach. When the enraged governess seized her by the wrist Gloria tried to pull her Into the froth. But the gover ness was too big for her and she hauled Gloria out of the romantic sea Into a bard world of dry sand and drier mathe matics. Gloria slunk along In a white rage, a storm brewing behind her eye. Bbe was not often sullen and never morbid. Bhe. was made up of Joy, sunlight and mischief, all the fresh and sweet of life. But she loathed being told to do things or not to do things, forbidden, corn-manded-ln a word, bossed. flh wss polxed st the nameless stage between childhood and girlhood. Phe wss not what Is termed "out," yet her restive spirit made It Impoaalble for her to be kept "In.'' She wss tired of being snubbed. Her brother Pavld, some four years her senior, made life Increasingly lone some for tiloria by his freedom snd the superior, worldly airs he assumed for her especial torment, In earlier years they had been very near to each other, and now It wss bitter to Gloria's proud soul to watch David coming and going at will, dancing every night, snd flirting desperately with Lois Freeman, whom Gloria did not like because her brother did. O, yes, Psvtd could fltrt his head off, but her father turned whttn and her governess turned blue If Gloria so much a mentioned a lover In a novel or sug Jtested that ah might have one herself at some time in that future which she wa welting for th next lntallment of an exciting serial. Gloria was woman enough to recent reslrslnt and child enough to be capable of making a tragle blunder if she ever broke away, Gloria issued a declaration or Indepen dence as soon a she reached her room. It began with: "I'm too old to have a governcssl" "Thsnkal" Afiss ffldney snapped. ''You're more thn welcome!" Gloria snapped back. "I want one thing un derstood. This is the Isst time I'll stand being treated aa a child. I'm not one. At my age my grandmother wa the mother of my father, and If you don't change your treatment of me I'm going to run away and marry the first man I meet." "People who are always going to do thing never do them," said the govern ess, with th primness of a copybook. "But If you're so old and wise suppose you prove it first by doing your algebra les son. It very simple. "They never mado my grandmother learn algebra,' Gloria protested. "They never taught her to run an auto mobile either." "That another thing. My brother has a csr of hi own and I haven't even a pushmoblle. Half, th girls of my ago have their own motors, I cen run one as well any of them. If a shame that my father won't buy me one," "Perhsp If you learned your lesson he might reward you with a car." This rainbow of hope brought the end of the etorm. Gloria beamed and ran to ellp out "of her bathing suit and Into her lunchron frock. Th governess almost smlkd s she wrote the problem on the Mark board she used for Gloria's lesson When Gloria came back Miss Blduey pointed to the figures. "It'g very simple, my dear," she said. "You have only to multiply a--t by a-l-b,", v nut-" "Work it out yourself, dear, snd call me whon It Is finished." Gloria stared at the problem and felt herself slipping gack Into childhood at a breakneck speed. Hho had no more Idea of what it all meant than a new-born babe. She put on a pair of big tortoise shell spectacles, but they made her look younger than ever and gave her no help, fhe could see that foolish a--b, but she could not see why anyone should want to know what would happen if you did such a foolish thing as to multiply It by itself. When the blackboard blurred before her eyes she moved to the window and stared at the glittering merriment of the crowd. Even'body was at play except Gloria: people In bathing suits, yachting flan nels, gulf togs, tennis things, bicycle clothe, motor ger. They streamed along th walks, the sand, the piassai, eat In wicker chairs, or rolled along In "afromoblles.'

Pavld had presented him to her. Pr. Royce had graduated at Pavld' college: they were members of the same fraternity. 'Tou ought to be out here In the sun," Pr. Royce suggested. Gloria wss shocked at the Idea. Bhe pointed to tha blackboard: "I'm In Jail for a thousand years. It will take me at least that long to do this hateful prob lem." Royce could not enter her room to go to the blsekboard, so he asked her to bring the blackboard to him. fine fetched it Joyously and gave him chalk and said: "There Isn't any answer, though." He was too polite to say, "Why, this I the easiest thing In the world, but he showed that It was for him by the speed and smiling ease of his chalk work, - In g moment the riddle was solved. Gloria understood It a little less than before, but It meant a release from cap tivity, and she was so entranced that she flung her arms about him and gave him a resounding kiss and called him "a wonderful, marvelous, angel man." To her It was a kls of childish grati tude for the help of older wisdom, Bhe hurried the blackboard to the easel snd began to copy the doctor' neat figure In her own scrawl. But Royce stood quivering with th unexpected attack. He knew that It wa a young girl' kiss given in confidence and ignorance, and it was therefore sa cred. But he could not help feeling a thrill of prophetic hope. Boon she would grow up to womanhood and she must love someone, snd why not him? Khe ws very rich, hut hi own future was gorgeous In hi dreams, and Gloria wss tha most gorgeous thing In his gorgeous dreams. Then he reproached himself for the mood and grew sad at th thought of the years that must roll over Gloria's sunlit head before lie could even pay court to her. And In those year what dangers might 'she not encounter dan ger to her health, her soul, her happi ness? He longed to protect her through thein all. He saw that Gloria had already for gotten him. .She had copied his work and she wa- rubbing out his calculations. He wondered If that were prophotlo, too. When Gloria had the blackboard all ship-shape she howled to tho governess to come and see her triumph. Gloria re gretted the deception; but what other refuge ha the weak from the strong? Mis Sidney raised her eyebrow and doubtless suspected that Gloria had en Joyed outaldo aid; but she, had an en gagement of her own with the tutor of a rich young Imbecile, and she pretended to be convinced. .Gloria wa pergnlttcd to call It an alge bra lesson, and for a reward she was assigned to the study of a list of the English kings. Gloria did not mind that, for she 'hid a stolon novel Inside the page and read something fsr more Im portant to hor than ancient history mod ern romance. If Gloria had not learned a lesson of ny importance that day, neither had her elders. When dinner time came at last Gloria's maid , allowed her to select her newest Paris gown for dinner. And It was a pleasant dinner, on tha veranda, with Ihe twilight drawing round like soft cur tains, the lamp glowing everywhere In the tropical verdure liko little moons, and the glimmering afromohlle spinning everywhere along tha walks. And there wa music, The dancing was beginning a little distance away. Gloria tried to sneak a sip of her father's coffee, but Mlsa Sidney caught her at It and took tho cup away. But except for her everything was beautiful and tender; the very atmosphere was full of pleasant reverie. And then Mis Sidney had to look at her watch and ruin everything wtth tho Insulting word: "Bedtlmol" Gloria pretended not to hoar and talked vigorously to Pavld. But he only laughed an elder brotherly laugh and lighted another cigarette. She ran to her father and nestled in hi arms, He hugged her close, but she could tell he wa afraid of that gorgon governi'sa. . r. I .. , ; j l Wbn You I I y Want-to Hire ' w j !

One!" He shook his head. She knew that the governess had given him his orders. Pavld sniffed: "Little girl aren't al lowed to mingle with grownups after dark." Gloria choked for word and threw him one glance. If look were smacks In the eye he would have had a good one. But he only laughed the more. Then her father hardened his heart and gave her a run-along-now kiss. She went along, but she did not run. Once more the rebellion began to simmer In her brain. Her helplessness was her chief grlev snce. How could a young girl defend herself from a big governess and a big maid, a flinty-hearted father, and a brute of a brother? Sh was pondering while the maid took: off her dinner gown and hung it up snd handed her her sleep, log suit. A pretty time to go to bed with all Florida celling to her under the moon! She said her prayers with an absent minded lack of conviction end crawled Into bed. The governess and tha maid put out the lights and left her. But they did not put out the moon. The governen had a prosalo soul and she fell asleep in spite of tho moon snd the muslo and the pleading call of all outdoor. She even snored! Gloria could stand everything but that. She stole from her bed and tiptoed lo the governess' room to shake her and bet her not to piny that tune on her nose. A better Idea occurred q her. Feeing the governess' ( loth slippers neatly placed on th bedside mg, Gloria pinned them there, whisked beck into hor own room, nd, flinging off her bedgenr, slipped Into her Jtnner gown sgsln.

"I'm sorry, my child, but J've been sent to bed, too." She felt sorry for him, but she wished that people would stop calling her "my child." She perked at the ballroom again and watched Ihe rivalry of Pavld and Mr. Freneau for the lance of Lol Freeman. The two men wore Jealous of each, other. I'nvld wa furious, and Gloria ws glad of It. , After a tlmn Pavld hnd a great scheme. Never dreaming that Gloria w Just out sldo th window, within hor:iig distance, he risked Lois if she would not enjoy a little moonlight rpln In his racer. She said that ihe would. Pavld ssld, "Wait right here," and left the ballroom. But Uk did not waslo any time waiting. Sh beckoned Mr. Freneau and told him that she had a headache and could dame only one more dance before she said good night. Gloria knew that she ws killing time till Pavld could get lo the garage and back. She heard Psvid's csr coming. The lights almost revealed her on the plazxa, Pavld stopped the car at the side en trance end ran Into the hotel for Lois, Then Gloria's Inspiration cam. She would sav Pavld from that glren snd she would get a bit of moonlight for herself. She dashed across the lawn, and, step ping Into the car, commanded it to obey her wild will, and away it went like a maglo carpet. Her practiced hands and feet knew the steering wheel and the clutch and the brakea and all, and there waa a raptur beyond words In her power, her liberty, her speed. At lust she was being obeyed and not obeying. This leaping monster outran the greyhound and bore her down moonlit lanes, shadowed with palms and beautiful strange trees and shrub of exotlo shape and perfume. The road ran along the sea and the waves laughed at her. Out In the haze aha saw a great full-rigged ship loafing along in the gulf stream. But she was 111 a belter ship. ' She could imagine the bewilderment of 1'iyvld and Ixiis when they stepped out for their clandestine escapade and found that somebody had clandestinely escaped with the car, She laughed aloud at the picture. She could imagine that governess wsk ing at the racket of her own snore and getting up with a (tart, then deciding to see if Gloria were still In Jail, She could ce her putting her feet into her slipper and going kerflop! Gloria shrieked at this vision. It would pay her off for some of those cuff on the ear that sbe had given l.lorla. Gloria had heon too good a sport to tell on her, but she had not forgotten them. She could Imagine the governess pick ing herself up and running bsrefoot into Gloria' bedroom the empty eg whence the bird had flown. She could see the panto she fell Into and the funny sight she made. In her bathrobe a sh dashed out Into th corridor and hunted Gloria's father to give the alarm. Gloria proved how far sh was from having outgrown her childhood by the things that tmused and Justified her night, v'he wss a child, but she had possessed herself of this perilous engine, She was flying at forty miles an hour along almost deserted rosds, cutting through sleeping Village, little oases In a Jungle that closed more snd more Advice to Lovelorn By Beatrice Fairfax. lie Mreme Inslnrere.
