THE STORY: Although Gaynel
Teare has received a proposal of
marriage from wealthy Barry
Bainbridge of Detroit, Gaynel is
in love with Fritz Freyman, who
is not wealthy, Gaynel is the
breadwinner for her family con
sisting of a brother Nennv whe
seldom holds a job, a young sister
Pat, and Gaynel’s mother, Emily.
She has told herself often that
marriage to Barry will solve many
problems. Now on a Sunday ex
cursion with Fritz, Gaynel real
izes that there are problems ahead.
How can he talk se blithely about
taking on the responsibilities of
marriage without a bank account?
“I don’t quite see how we can get
married, Fritz,” she says.
® % L 3
XXIII
He drew his long legs up, turned
and stared at her. “You don't see
how . . . Look here, gorgeous, do
you know what you're saying? Of
course we're going to get married.
We're nuts about each other,
aren’t we? Tl've-a job now that
can take care of us. |
“Hold on a minute!” He would
not let her interrupt. “I know you
still make more dough per week
than I do, but this is only a starter
for me. We can get along swell,‘
the two of us. What do you mean‘
—take on a family?” . 3
“l mean,” she studied the tips
of her fingers, “that there are
more than just the two of us to
consider; that I have certain re
sponsibilities—to my family, Fritz.
I can't just step out of them and
run away.
By
[ Adelaide
Humphries
“Please” She stopped him now,
when he would have interrupted.
“You hold on a minute, darling;
let me talk. There are a lot of
things you don’t understand.
Things that go back: a long way.
Back to that day when my father
was found dead in his car in our
garage—after his business had
failed.
“l found him, Fritz. I'll never
forget.” She closed her eyes a
moment, as though to shut out
that memery; then opened them,
as though to force herself to face
it again. “It was a lovely fall
morning, a day like this, I'd prom
ised Barry I'd meet him at 6 for
a set of tennis. I remember, even
now, haw I felt, rumning out of
the house, the world such a beau
tiful place, so seécure, so singing,
so safe—the way it had always
been for me, the way I supposed
it always would gbe.
“And then something—l'il never
know what—made me stop a mo
ment at the garage, open the door.
That was when I found my father,
his head slumped over the wheel,
one foot as though he had tried to
get out. That was what made me
so sure it wasn’t suicide. I knew
he couldn’t have done that to us
—the ones he loved.”
®35 3 i
“Poor kid,” Fritz said; he caught
her hands in his. “That was a
tough break.” o
“It was an accident,” Gaynel in
sisted. “But of course people said
it wasn’t. It was hard to make
people believe differently after
they found out that father had
turned over his own money in an
effort to help save the bank. He
was ruined — suicide seemed the
answer. 5
“But if you knew how shel
tered our lives always had been
and then to have the whole world
come toppling down on your head.
That’s whv I'm telling vou all this,
Fritz.” She looked at him now.
“To try to make you see it all —
so that you'll understand why I
Ican't step out of the responsibili
ties T had to assume at that time.”
“Mother was so bewildered, she
didn’t know what it was all about;
she doesn’t know yet. She's still
living in the same world she al
ways lived in. Denny is like her
in that. He had to go on and
finish college. He has to find a
job that will be good enough, and
suitable, for him. Pat was only a
child, still is . . .” |
“And you became the breadwin
ner for the family,” Fritz added. |
“Weil, ihe cake - winner, at]
least.”” He did understand; it was
not going to be so difficult after
all. Maybe they could work it
out together; maybe there would
‘be some way. “They could get on,
I suppose, if they would, without
my help. Qur house is entirely
free from debt. Father’s insur
ance gives us a moderate income.”
*® % ‘
Fritz said, after a moment of
silence. “But, my sweet, people
can learn to do without cake. Lots
have, you know. If the depres
sion taught any lesson, it was that.
Not the depression alone, but all
the changes in this new world of

ours, in other countries, as well as

. This was a new Fritz, A think
ing, serious person. Almost she
was afraid of him. Yet, she had
known all along that there was
that side of him, too. She loved
him more because of it, if loving
him more were possible.
“There’s no room for cake-eat
ers,” Fritz said. “Or for martyrs,
either. Girls marry the man of
their choice. I am your choice,
aren’t I, my love?” His blue eyes
were teasing. but tender.
“You are,” Gaynel vowed; her
dark eyes saying much more than
that.
“You're not thinking of marry
ing anyone else then?”
“No. I couldn’t marry anyone
else. Now.”
“Then we'll work it out some
way,” Fritz said. “Together.”
That ‘“together” was sufficient.
For the present, at least. It sound
ed so tremendous that it surely
could surmount all time, remove
all obstacles.
- She said, “You darling . . .” and
turned her head, so that he would
not see the tears that pressed be
hind her eyelids. She was a sent
imental fool. But a happy one.
He was so unutierably dear. It
was grand to be in love. She
wasn’t afraid any more.
“What yßu need,” he said, “is
some food. Nothing like it to
strengthen the morale and start
the brain in the box ticking. We'll
dine, Gay, and then we'll talk this
out. And what’s even more to the
point, by that time it will be dark
and I can make you listen to me
without, all these people and ani
mals rubber-necking.”

Q. Does the fact that I receive
