Gay shlvc^nd. tihe was posl- tivu now that Ireno hated her â€" liter- ally haled her! CHAPTER V The crowded days that followed the debut didn't Kivo Gay much time to think about Irene. She hadn't dreani- iil that life could be so hectic. Just ono continuous miuid of paribus. Ber- nal Van Gordon had done his work well, and no ono questioned the pres- tige of tho Stromleys. As a result. Gay was well launched on her social career. A few week.! after the debul, Irene gave a dance. .'\s usual, Itodufy was Gay's escort. As they entered tho ballroom, Gay I aiighl siglit of Hernal Van Gordon. Ills eyes wero (ixed on her in a curi- ous way, iind a few minutes later ho found an opporluniiy to speak to her .ilone. 'I've .sonietliiuf-': I have lo lr-11 you. Miss Ni^edliam." ho began. "I ilislikc to do it, but it i.i necessary. Vou'ro h 'iiig crillclzi-d." "Criticized!'' "â- i'es. It'.s one of those whispering campaigns. No one knows how thoy start, an<l they are hard to stop. Vou'ro too vivacious, too perl. You l.iugh too loud, and are too popular Willi tho men. .\fter all, you know, it is ll;n women who rule stitiety, and it is u|> to you to win their apiiroval."

Counteracting Criticism A tall, blond young man, around thirty, was appioailnng. He had an air of arrogant jioisc "I finally cornered you." Van Gor- don greeted him smoothly. Then, luriilng to Oay, "Mr. I'lonnie is most .inxiou. to meet you. Miss Needham. may I present Mr. Marvin Ploanie, of I'.-iris and New York.'' '.Such a pleasure." Ploanie kissed licr hand, then said purriiiKly. ".May I gel you some (iuik li. and then have llie honor of a dance?" Guy fi'll an instant and iiistimlive dislako for the n^iii. but relilied, 'Cer- tainly". As soon as i'liianie had gone for llie punch. Van Gordon said, "I want you to be nice lo Marvin Ploame, be cause . . .'' "Is It necessary that I he nice to wliomever you may pick out?" Gay relortr^d. ''.\fler all, Mr. Van (iordon, you are being paid for your part In this society launching, and I don't see that you have any right to dic- tate." "Very sorry, Miss Needham. but 1 am thinking of your own interests." Van Gordon spoke soolhingly. "I'loatne Is exceedingly influential with the nomadU: international crowd.

"It Isn't my wish to tell tin- Iriilli about yini Needliams, but Ploanie Is a good friend of niiiie and unless you are nice to liim . . ." Ploame's roturn just then ended the conversation, and Van Gordon moved away. Oay felt Ploame's slate- gray eyos looking her ovctr as she drank tho imncli. Ills lilondo hair looked as though II had beiui mar- celled. "Thinks he's a shelli.'' Gay thought angrily. "1 won't slieiid a lot of lime with him, no matter wliat IliMiial Van Gordon says!"

That often is the case when 60 many youngsters have their tonsils out at this time of tho year or one of them has the 'flu. The sick nieniher needs soujthlng special to tempt the appetite and tho busy houso- wlfo often fliid.i herself In quite a dither trying to prepare two separate and different menus. In a case like this there Is a com- promise which isn't difllcult. It's per- fectly possible to plan a light, easy- to-dlgest meal, with the Invalid flrst in mind, and then servo the same dishes to the able-bodles. Rarloy soup with vegetables is just the thing for the patient but the whole family will go tor it if you make enot-'gh to go arounil. The same thing applies to desserts and here are some special ones which you mustn't think of making for the Invalid alone because the rest of tho family will probably feel very hurt aii'l envious.
