that what was to .be, is to be, re

be.tniel Mrs. McKinzey expanded?
However, there was .a little cloud on
her. horizon. Kenneth Morton was a
little too good loorag -to suit her.
Peter was more aristocratic, xi
course, she mentally tabulated, but
it was, otten the case that slender,
eibereak creatures like Sallie fell in
love wfih big, picturesque men like
the "broad-shouldered Morton. She
must speak warninglj to Sallie!
" Salfie was" dntifuDy obedient That
evening she danced five times with
Peter, to three times with Kenneth
M orton. .
The Van Maylands w ere the We of
tbe'place. - There ensued for Mrs.
McKmrev the dream .time of her
whole existence a time when she was
an integral part aoi real society, ni't
just a jealous onlooker.- Yet "every
week Mrs. McKinzey longed for
Kenneth Morton to 'say goodby, as
so many young men did. and go on
to some other resort. But Kenneth
stayed , Likewise Peter, .
Everybody watched and' specu
lated. Everybody knew that Peter
and Kenneth were leading i:he race
ior pretty, unspoiled bailie. People
learned to love her so that tney even
forgave 'her for having a mother like
dear, ambitious -Ma.
Then one evening the denoue
ment came naexpeclealy. .-. Kenneth
had a nasty . f all from a wickedly
vicious horse. - Wben "he .regained
consciousness, he called for SaHic
and -after -one look at SjaHie's tor
tured, tear-stained face, everybody
knew the end of fhat love - story.
Mrs. McKinzey cajoled, pleaded,
stormed. Then she threatened.
They would pack tip and leave the
following day.
What is likely to be can be avert

argued Mrs. McKinzey. bitterly. For
Salhe to have a chance like

She might have known that Sallie,

father. would . choose the big.
plebeian looking-Kenneth instead
of -dear Peter, wtrh his aristocratical

eyes and stylish little mustache. In
the midst of the lecture on ingrati

Mrs. McKinzey tried desperately
to-smile irher she opened the door
