Jael did not come up to Jerry as she expected. Instead he stood off a few feet from the guests to whom Evelyn was presenting Dan and waited quietly until she turned to him with Dan beside her.

Dan put out his hand when Jael's name was given him, but Jael did not take it. Evelyn Jooked at Javl. startled by his strange attitude. Dan appeared bewildered for a mo ment, then dropped his arm to his side, bowed to Evelyn and went to join Jerry.

The few people near them were listening now in amazement. Jerry xicle close to Dan, trembling with apprehension. He felt her hand touch his own, and glanced down in t her troubled fare. He guessed then that she was involved in this unexpected situation.

He faced Jael again. "If you will," he aski with ominous in his voted. Jael bowed.

Jerry clung closer to Dan..

Jerry Bfted her tear-stained face, "I know what he means," she calmald miserably. "He said some- thing to me the first day I went fo rehearsal."

Evelyn placed herself between them as they moved away and thrust out her hands in a'swift gesture.

"Jael, what is it?" she cried in

"I can't imagine what it is," she said, "but I know Jael will explain, He wouldn't speak ill of anyone unless he felt he was right. It's only fair to Jerry to hear what he has to say."

Dan looked down at Jerry.

"Miss Starr is right," he said. you ought to get this cleared up, Herry. There will be a lot of talk if it isn't."

Jerry choked back a sob.

"I'd rather tell you myself," she said, drawing away from Dan. He let her go and Evelyn put an Arm around her.

Evelyn left the rooms and Jerry was alone with her mother,

"Poor Evelyn," the mother mur-. mured softly. "I wish she had never met Jael. He's a great bur- den to her and she loves him so much she feels, impelled to human- ize him."

Jerry was embarrassed by this confidence. She felt certain that Mrs. Starr offered it only in re- sponse to an uncontrolled nervous emotion. She scarcely knew what to say, but she was spared the ne- cessity of answering.

Evelyn burst into the room to announce, in obvious excitement, that Alester had come.
