That is true?" , "Perfectly ' true," said Helen,, "ex- cept that, of course, like other New York women, I have broken the bar- rier from time to time in favor of a pet Jew." • Mr. Lorbenstein gave an agry scoff. "I shall not forget, Mrs. Farquhar, that it was 'through you, on behalf of, the "Colony Club, that my.:eldest daughter was informed that she could not become a member in spite of the fact that her money and devotion had been .lavished upon its work for our army- in time ,of war.

He turned . away, thrust Max's aw: pealing hand aside, and with quicker and shorter steps than ever, left the room. • - "My God," thought Farquhar, "whet will this mean to Jean?"

She had never taken orders before,' nor had any living creature ventured to give them -not even Jean. Farquhar' trod on several feet -the centre of a scrum. He used his el- bows so that he might ','haze a lane for his wife. Along this .Helen made her way calmly and quietly, with a Marie Antoinette expression and her eyes on her house. Ignoring the bombardment of ques- tions, Farquhar followed, used ..Hel- en's latchkey, passed her in'and slam- med the door. , The. defeated scavengers were . ut terly unable to, understand the con- tinued refusal to accept publicity. Ev- eryone else courted and went to 'ev- ery length to obtain it.• What in hell was the great idea? Jean hack watched the return of her father and Mother.
