That cl^ht McCale and Anne dine at a gay night club. CHAPTER Vir He lighied a cigarette ind start- ed to recount carefully the affair Bigelow as far as it wetit. He tried to make of it a series of pictures, in kia own inind at least, like the •lowly unwinding reel of a movie camera, ready to stop dead at any moment the scene went wrong or a (esture became significant. Ann heard him through tc the end. a puzzled frown marring her fea- tures. When he finally paused, she said, "Ko more:" "No more.- "So far as I can see from where we're sitting then, there is'nt any mystery unless it's your Irish hunch." "Have I ever been wrong?" "Oh you must have been, once or twice. â- ' "But I swear there is something going on thereâ€" some deep trou- ble. I tell you, the whole family has the Jumps. They're shaky, ner- Ty â€" out of sorts. It sticks out like a sore thumb." * * • A.nn selected a salted nut and bit into it with her strong white teeth. She said, an amused look in her •yes, "What sticks out is that the irhole family is crazy about the gorgeous Curt. .\nd he takes the one with tlie money. He must be quite a boy." "I assure you he is. Can't you i««t see them all from my descrip- tion? The old lady at wit's end: Sybil drowning something or other in sherry: Karen cold and la.t, tak- ing it out on the piano; Veronica dazzled: \'ictoria cruel and fight- fag back: Stephen lost and flounder- ing. Why â€" " "Of course, d.irling. I ste them all." "But what do you think?" "I think you're smitten with t!iis Karen wench." McCale roared. "Good Lord, are Toa jealous? Of me? .\'ow, see hereâ€"" "Of course I'm jealous, you wretch." She waggled a finger at him, then pointed. "Aail here, if I'm not mistaken, comes another member of our cast." « * * Lights went down suddenly and a girl stepped into the yellow oval of a spot. She was dressed in some silver business so cunningly draped that it turned her into a shimmer- ing pillar. She had a wide raspebrry mouth and dark brown hair with strange lights in it. The sa.xophones wailed and subsided to a moan. The drums were a tom-tom accom- paniment. Slie stood perfectly still, a cigarette hanging from the corn- er of her mouth while she sang. Her voice was a husky contralto and she wrenched the lyrics from the commonplace it. to the realm of the boudoir. It was lop-notch old-school singing. ^ "Wowl" exclaimed .McCale. "That's showmanship. What were you saving, mv pet, when Love Walked In?" "That was Shari Lynn." McCale raised an eyebrow. The girl had walked out onto the floor again to take a bow. She accepted the acclaim in the same slow, sul- tiy way she had (ung. "I hope you won't go into a Jealous rage if I say I think the'* flot sontetliing there," said McCale • « • "Not at all.

"I'll admit he's handsome." "Handsome, darling, is not the word for it." ".Ann, I'm ashamed of you. I did not dream that girls â€" " "You listen to me instead. Al- most any man with a lot of money is on- t'ne hunt for the best deal he can buy. What's the matter with a woman who's got a few million ly- ing around loose buying herself a gorgeous piece of freight â€" like that?" • • • It was true, however, that Curt Vallaincourt, that highly salable male, was going to the highest bid- der on Saturday ne.xt. McCale thought of the clairvoyance that had made him sure only that after- noon that the man was truly in love with Veronica Bigelow. It hardly seemed credible now that he saw him here in a tete-a-tete with Shari Lynn. But there they were, a t^ble or two away, deep in conversation. The flash of a million golden sparks went by their table. McCale looked out of the comer of his eyes and saw that a tall woin.<ii with hair the color of spun su?ar was; passing. lie recognijcd "her imme- diately. It was Karen Figelow. She looked more like a Norse goddess than ever in a dress wli^h looked concoctf'd entire'v of sold mesh bags. She saw him, but gave ro glance of recognition. Her eyes were f'xcd str.i'"ht ahead in a cold, hard gla^e at the table where Val- laincourt sat with the torch singer. She deliberately walked toward them. • • » » "That your Karen?" .Ann whis- pered. '•lâ- h-^uh.•* â- 'Well, r do hope there'll be no trouble." If there was, it was remarkably well-bred and closely held. Karen reached the table and spoke quick- ly to \"a'Iaim--t<rf. He hv^ked ania?ed. shaken. He turned to Shari Lynn once, bljidly. Btit the Lynn girl only sat there, utterly relaxed, her mouth a sulky sneer. Karen took something from her bag and handed it to Shari. She looked once at Curt, a long, searching, smol- dering look, and turned away. \'al- laincourt made a move to follow her, hut Shari caught his hand, draw'i'!" hhn t--,-'-. He almost stumbled in the alcove. It was then th;it McCale. swivel- iiur arou'iij to the s^>>t'<nl Ann had his second shock of the evening. Not five tables away, almost hid- den in a coi'ner, sat Stephen Bige- low. There was a row of empty .glasses in front of him as though he had ordered them all at one time. Vet lie did not seem to he drunk. His ejes were sunken in that fa'-e so prennturelv cadaver- ous but they glittered with a cold sardonic amusement that was frightening. « « • .Ann Marriot gripped McCale's hand in an imploring gesture. "Let's get out of here." "Maybe the fun is only just be- ginning." he said, rising with alacrity. "Let's go anyway. These â€" these sacred concerts annoy me." They went downstairs where the simpering, half-dressed check girl gave thent their wraps. On the steps, a slight altercation was taking place. Karen Bigelow was trying to restrain a slightly bedraggled, fussily dressed woman. McCale saw that It was Jylvht Bigelow. Karen was saying, "Vou mustn't go In, Mother Bigelow, you just can't. Let me take you home." "Get out of my way!" the older woman said.

The Deity of Christ Here is set forth the Deity cf our Lord as He declares tl;at He came from Ood and ""went to <Jod. " Xote the past tense. Jesus regarded His return to the Father as an accom- plished fact, notwithstanding that so much suffering must intervene. The serving Christ showed the humilk,/ of the Son of Man. He rose htm the supper at w'nich He was the guest of honor. He lay aside the outer robe, donned the towel apron, poured water into the basin at hand, and began to wash and wipe the disciples' feet. The Humihty of Christ As He proceeded with His me- nial service Jesus came to Peter whose question. "Lord, dost Thous wash my feet?" appeared to stress his own humility to the point of pride in it.

Spiritual Cleansing When Peter still refused to sub- mit to the washing of his feet by the Master, Jesus answered that cleansing and surrender were ne- cessary. Whereupon Peter, in com- plete change of attitude bared his his head and hands for liie hoiy bath. If by the washing of his feet he was to gain a b-essing, how much more, if tiie Lord would bat wash his hands and his headl The impulse was bora of love and de- votion bat Peter was still lacking spiritual perception.
