SEVENTH INSTALLMENT
Synopsis: Pauline, sentimental, trustful, sincere and loving love, becomes engaged and marries Dennis O'Hara in the belief that their blissful happiness will continue unchanged thru all the years. On her wedding morning she awakens with a strange premonition that maybe love does change, a thought buried in her mind by a letter from her closest friend, Barbara the night before. Pauline adored Barbara who had been married, was the mother of a child which died, but now divorced and living a life which some of her friends could not understand. Between Dennis and Barbara is a seeming wall of personal dislike by both. Six months after Pauline's wedding, Barbara comes for a short stay. During this visit Barbara confesses to Pauline that there is a man she really loves, but she refuses to tell his name. Barbara decides suddenly to go home and Pauline insists Dennis drive her to the station. Irritated Dennis drives recklessly, and they are in a crash. Barbara escapes injury but Dennis' leg is broken. As he returns to consciousness he learns who the man is that Barbara loves. Its himself. Dennis spends several weeks in the hospital. Barbara returns to stay with Pauline, but on one pretext or another fails to visit Dennis with Pauline at the hospital. Pauline plans highly for Dennis' return home. Much against his will Dennis finds a attraction in Barbara, who plays the same cool and detached role as form-
Barbara made Jerry Barnet go with her to meet the O'Haras. It was a pouring wet evening, and New York looked at its worse. Barbara slipped a hand through Jerry's arm as they walked up and down the platform.
"You look very young to-night," he said. He pressed her hand close to his side. "I like you in that get-up. New, isn't it?"
"Oh, I've had it some time!" Barbara said carelessly, but she flushed and wondered what he would say if she told him it was all new and expressly bought for Dennis O'Hara.
She had not slept a wink all night; she had lain awake like an excited girl waiting for the man she loved.
"So absurd!" she scolded herself.
"After all the experience I've had of men. Of course, it won't last — it's just another of my fancies." She tried to believe in her own words, but it was difficult. She had loved Dennis for so long—more than a year—and a year was a great time to Barbara. And now Dennis was coming to New York. In another moment she would see him and read the usual almost angry disapproval in his eyes. She gave a little stifled her over from head to foot laughed. "Do you like me stick — no earrings — you've always been used to He drew a quick breath. "Jove it's not you! But you're divine."
She swept him a mock eyes-bright with excitement. Jerry took her hand kissed it.
"I'm almost afraid of you — Suddenly he caught 'Barbara darling'— She wrenched herself for passionate arms.
"Let me go—beast! Bea-Jerry Barnet was crimson.
"Anyone would think been kissed before—what the matter? Other times objected! Oh, I say, chuck for she had begun to so but with infinite pathos.
He had never seen her emotion before, and he was distressed. It was almost her new mode of dressing changed her nature too. He said again, with a choke
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
Then she laughed at herself.
There was nothing in the world to prevent Barbara from going off at any moment if she so wished. She was free and she had plenty of money, but there was nobody with whom she wished to take such a journey.
But if she had been married to Dennis O'Hara—she brushed that thought quickly aside, and went hurriedly to her bath.
Jerry Barnet rang up while she was dressing. "Should have rung before," he explained, "only I thought you'd be asleep. Tired myself this morning. Awful!"
"I'm as fresh as a daisy," Barbara told him cuttingly. "And I will have to tell you it's all off for Wednesday."
"Oh, I say!"
"Yes; I've got some people coming up from the country," Barbara explained coolly. "And I've got to show them around. Awful bore!"
"Who are they? Didn't know you had any country relations."
"I haven't. It's Pauline and Dennis O'Hara. They're tired of rusticating and want a change."
"Well, you'll want a fourth, so what about me?"
Barbara hesitated, then she laughed. "Oh, very well. You'll like Pauline, she's pretty and—innocent."
"That's another word for stupid."
"You think so? Well, you must judge for yourself. They're going to stay at the Albion—deadly respectable, isn't it? I thought a little supper after a show on Wednesday night. Reserve a table somewhere, will you?
"All right, but I shall see you tonight? We're going to the Venners." It seems ages since last night."
"All right."
She rang off, frowning. If only Jerry wouldn't be so slavish. No doubt some women would love such devotion, but she found it irritating. He ought to have married a woman like Pauline.
Barbara spent the morning at her dressmaker's. Madame Celeste had new creations freshly arrived from Paris that morning, so she untruthfully said. She showed Barbara all her most expensive and exotic models, but Barlae insists Dennis drive her to the station. Irritated Dennis drives recklessly, and they are in a crash. Barbara escapes injury but Dennis' leg is broken. As he returns to consciousness he learns who the man is that Barbara loves. Its himself. Dennis spends several weeks in the hospital. Barbara returns to stay with Pauline, but on one pretext or another falls to visit Dennis with Pauline at the hospital. Pauline plans highly for Dennis' return home. Much against his will Dennis finds a attraction in Barbara, who plays the same cool and detached role as formerly. A fortnight after Barbara's return to New York, she receives a letter from Pauline that she and Dennis are coming to New York for a vacation.
Suddenly Jerry caught her to him.
"Barbar—darling—"
laugh, and Jerry looked down at her.
“What's the joke? Let’s share it!”
"I am wondering how you will like my friends."
"Oh, all right, I expert! Stormaway likes O'Hara. I told you."
"Yes—did he say anything about Pauline?"
"Only that she was young—just a kid."
"Yes." Barbara's heart contracted. She was so much older than Pauline, in experience if not in actual years. She wondered if she would have stood a better chance with Dennis if she had met him sooner—before her marriage, before she had cultivated this hard-cynical attitude toward life, to hide from the world her bitter hurt and disillusionment. She had done it so well that everybody accepted it now as her real self—all except Pauline who loved her and believed in her in spite of what other people said.
"Here comes the train." Jerry broke in upon her thoughts, and she drew her hand from his arm and hurried forward. Pauline was at the window, smiling and eager. Barbara saw Dennis lay a hand on her shoulder and heard him say: "Wait till the train stops; there is plenty of time."
Then it stopped, and Pauline opened the door and almost fell into her emotion before, and he was distressed. It was almost her new mode of dressing changed her nature too. He said again, with a choke.
"I didn't know. I'm awful not as if I've never kissed or any other man."
"I know!" She struggled composure. "I know—second hand!" She laughs "Don't take any notice, drink."
Jerry brought her the hand shook a little, and lashamed, though he could explained why.
"Sorry!" he said hoarse sorry! I'd rather have died you. Awful!
"I idiot!" She forced a drained the glass he gave get it. It's too many late nerves are upset. I'll have colour on after all. I look.
She kept him waiting and he avoided looking at left the flat together, bungler, but somewhere at his slow mind he realized hurt her intolerably, ringer.
In the car he said: rather not go? I'll explain.
"My God!" Barbara said "What do you take me ever breathe a word I'll to you again."
They drove to the Albion You wait. I'll fetch th
"All right, but I shall see you tonight? We're going to the Venners! It seems ages since last night."
"All right."
She rang off, frowning. If only Jerry wouldn't be so elavish. No doubt some women would love such devotion, but she found it irritating. He ought to have married a woman like Pauline.
Barbara spent the morning at her dressmaker's. Madame Celeste had new creations freshly arrived from Paris that morning, so she untruthfully said. She showed Barbara all her most expensive and exotic models, but Barbara would have none of them.
"I am going to change my style," she said coolly. "Snow me something simple—black and white—nothing, Oriental."
But, madame—" Celeste was the picture of grief-stricken amazement. Barbara cut her short.
"You heard what I said—something simple in black or white. If you haven't got anything I can go elsewhere."
"I suppose I'm mad—utterly mad she told herself as she drove away. 'But it's nice' to be different sometimes—it's as good as a holiday,' and she thought again of Dennis.
If they could have spent a holiday together! For a moment she let her imagination have full play. She and Dennis down by the sea, walking hand in hand along golden sands with the fresh breeze blowing in their faces. They would be young together, with everything else in the world forgotten. She wrenched her wandering thoughts back to sanity. Dennis did not love her and, even if he did, how soon would they grow weary of each other? No, no, it was far better as it was. Pauline was the wife for him.
Pauline was the kind of woman to make a home for such a man as Dennis. And yet it was by his choice that they were coming to town.
Why had he done it? Barbara told herself she did not know, could not guess, and yet—deep down in her heart there was a little fluttering hope that it was because he wanted to see her.
"You're a fool!" she told herself pityingly again and again, and could only remember that it is better far to be a fool in Paradise than to be wise and have no Paradise at all.
She had done it so well that everybody accepted it now as her real self—all except Pauline who loved her and believed in her in spite of what other people said.
"Here comes the train," Jerry broke in upon her thoughts, and she drew her hand from his arm and hurried forward. Pauline was at the window, smiling and eager. Barbara saw Dennis lay a hand on her shoulder and heard him say; "Wait till the train stops; there is plenty of time."
Then it stopped, and Pauline opened the door and almost fell into her friend's unresponsive arms.
"How lovely to see you again. It seems years. We've brought an awful lot of luggage. I don't believe it will all go on one taxi!"
"I made Jerry bring his car." Barbara said coolly, though her pulses were racing. She introduced them, "Mr. Barnet—Mrs. O'Hara, Mr. O'Hara."
Dennis and Jerry shook hands.
It's very kind of you to have met us," said Dennis, looking at Barbara.
"Not at all. Get a porter, Jerry. I don't call this much baggage, my child," she told Pauline when it was collected.
They got into the car—Dennis in front with Jerry, and the two girls behind.
"We've got tickets for a show tonight," Barbara said; "and we've booked a table for supper afterward."
"Oh, but Dennis ought to rest," Pauline broke out agitatedly.
"Nonsense." There was a sharp note in her husband's voice. "It's not nearly so tiring sitting in a train as it is trying to drag myself about the house."
Pauline's face quivered. "Of course, if you're not tired—" she faltered. They reached the hotel.
"We'll call for you at half-past seven," Barbara said. "No, we won't come in now—you'll want to unpack. So glad you've come."
She blew Pauline a kiss and leaned back with a sigh. "Take me home, Jerry. I feel exhausted."
"You go and dress and come back for me, and don't be late," said Barbara at her door.
He was amazed, when on arriving again at the flat he found her dressed and waiting.
"Great Scott!" he whistled looking disillusionment.
She kept him waiting and he avoided looking at left the flat together. bungler, but somewhere after his slow mind he realized hurt her intolerably, ringer.
In the car he said: rather not go? I'll explain.
"My God!" Barbara said. "What do you take me ever breathe a word I'll to you again."

Lions Are Pondering Dr. Keeler Message
Anaheim Lions this week pondered the message left by Dr. Jay Keeler of Artesia when he addressed the club Friday on the subject of mental laziness. He stated that most people only use a very slight portion of their mental powers, and that the field of mental development will be explored more fully in the future, with libraries carrying books on ways and means of overcoming mental inertia. He said that unless mental laziness has become cronic, an individual can bestir himself out of it.
