He laid rough handr or. Layton
and forcibly ejected him from the
room. He tutned and addressed
tne naif dozen witnesses with dead
ly calm.
“That goes for the rest of yon,”
he announced. “I’m shaking the
dust of this town from ny boots
pretty soon. But as long as I’m
around I don’t want that name
mentioned where I can hear it.”
One stepped forward, Barbour,
president of the club. 1
“You’re drunk, Kohler,” he said.
“Im not afraid of you—drunk or
sober.”
‘What I said means you, too.”
said Bravo. “If you don’t think so,
speak up.”
“You owe Layton an apology,"
said Barbour. “And you owe the
club an apology, too.”
“If you’ll wait a‘minute,’* eaid
Bravo, “I’ll write it!”
He got a sheet of paper and went
to the bar. He scribbled a few
words, folded the sheet and walked
up to Barbour.
“Here’s my apology,” he said,
and dung it into the man’s face.
He stalked out. Somebody pick
ed up the paper and read it ,
It was Bravo’s resignation from
the club.
There teas a heavy silence. Into
it the intruder shouted, “ Greetings,
twine!”
The Rcvzl
THE NIGHT, masterpiece of
dark loveliness, was marred by the
, bizarre costumes who flitted noisi
j ly across the silver lit- quiet.
Human perspiration, the heavy
odor of perfumes and the penetrat
ing smell of various liquors smoth
j ered the natural fragrance of the
* lowers which framed the artificial
I -pool set like a blue black pearl in
1 the garden. Its quiet waters were
harried by bathers, men and wom
en, scantily clad, who splashed into
It and obliterated the shimmering
reflection of the gentle crescent
moon.
Pierrots, Columbines, wood
nymphs, satyrs, middle aged little
boys, ballet dancers, clowns, pi
rates . . . everybody was in cos
tume.
On a little platform constructed
near the pool a jazz band of six
negroes blared muted mad synco
pation, music as abandoned as the
couples who danced to it on the
smooth lawn.
Succumbing to an unconquerable
Inhibition, Barbara had dressed
herself In the shabby habiliments
of a hobo. Like a lost soul she
wandered among the gay, drunken
Bohemians. She had taken sev
eral drinks, but they had not di
minished the morbid melancholy
Into which the night had plunged
her.
Louis XVIII humped into the
slender tramp and bowed as lowj
as his paunch would permit him.
“I know you,” he said, . “You’re
Miss Brov/n, our hie genial
hoshtesh! And you’re—hie—out
done yourshelf too. The club owes
sou a vote of thanks. You’ve given
tts a regular—hie—night in Rome.”
, . “A night in rum,” said Barbara,
And walked rudely away. Her tem
per was slowly rising to the danger
point. Her party to the Bohemians,
two hours old, was becoming rap
idly unmanageable. The crowds of
strange guests, unfamiliar faces
all, milled about her with total dis
regard for anything except a preda
tory intentness on accumulating,
• each one, a maximum share of loot
[ of beauty and booze.
On the wide sweeping lawn
which led from the pool to the wa
iters of the Sound she walked alone
i toward huge house she rented
to give this party to the Bohe
mians. Two by two, she had no
ticed, her guests had disappeared
In thh. direction. She was deter
mined to investigate.
She entered and started up the
broad #tairs. On the landing she
paused and jooked down the upper
hall. Faintly through the closed
i door of a room half way down the
corridor sounded laughter—femi
nine giggles and the tnroatier guf
faws of men. She stole to the
closed door and listened. She
paused a moment and placed her
hand reaolutely on the doorknob.
A quartet of revelers paused in
various attitudes of guilty surprise
as. she stood in the doorway.
They were all strangers.
One of the girls spoke up: *. ~
"No tramps allowed. If you
think you’re gonna get a handout
you're out o' lcck.”
} "Shut npf” bawled her male
partner. "Thick Is Libsrn Hall,
•grjrgboftsfe WIWBI, Ptk <g
Handout Manor. Free lunch, fre*
booze, everythingsh free.” ’ He.
grabbed Barbara by the arm
“ You’ve come In the nick o’ time
frien’. Look whal we fuuiuU”
“Where’d you get the cham
pagne?” demanded Barbara. She
welcomed the chance to vent he
anger pn somebody.
/ There Was a Joyous laugh.
"I got through a cellar window -
announced the man with the bottle
“Lap it up. sweetie.” said the
girl on the divan. “They sav it

To, herUmagination the horde oi

I Well, It was batter so. Sha
I would never give him another
I chance.
' When she emerged from the
house the cool air stroking her
flushed face soothed her, restored
her to a dead, despondent calm
She slackened her pace and walked
with measured steps toward the
pavilion, from which sounded the
throbbing cadence of the negroes
She loitered outside the structure.
, anger and hate fermenting within
her.
| She looked about for Petrie, sin
gled him out from the crowd and
called him to her side with a nod.
“ ’S’great party,” announced Pe

look in Barbara's eyes. “What’s

“There’s something I want to

notice that one of your memberl
has failed to come—Mr. Kohler.”
"That kill-joy?” cried Petrie
“Him? No. We kicked him out o|
our club. Oh, no, he won’t sbou .
up!”
“If he does,” gritted Barbara, “1

friends —I know it’ll take thai/i
’ many—to throw him out [ Do 700 /

“It’s an order!” he said.L "Andil
pleasure!” j
He shifted his gaze a moment
and started. Barbara’s pulse leap
ed at the sight of a familiar, weath*
- er stained felt hat
“Bravo!”
Her voice floated to him across
, the heads of the throng. The im
trader looked at her for one brief
instant with an expression that
! was unfathomable. The musib
stopped as Bravo lifted hie hal
with a melodramatic sweep and
sent It sailing into the air. There
was a heavy silence. Into it the
intruder shouted:
“Greetings, swine!”
BRAVO reached the wall of the i 1
pavilion and turned with his back j
■ against it to face the mob. A saxo
’ phone player who had ludicrously
, remained with his thick lips gilued
, to the mouthpiece of his lnstn»
ment, expelled a cheekful of air.
The single bovine blast electrified
the .silence, which was broken by
a few scattered, uneasy laughs.
The intruder put his hand on
the scarlet haft of a fire-axe which
hung on the wall of the tinder and
tinsel pavilion. Outlined against
the flimsy wall hangings, the rebel
member of the Bohemians, with th»
crimson and steel weapon held
against his chest, was the figure of
vengeance.
There was something which
urged Barbara to fling herself out
of the mob and leap to Bravo’*
side. But there was ateo that
which held her in her place, even
as it held the others, paralyzed by
the baneful glitter in the dark and
scornful eyes which traveled over
! the field of their upturned scared
- faces.
“1 said swine,” spoke the prophet
with the axe. “But you are no!
so decent as swine.”
His voice rose to fill the large
chamber, and smite the furthest
ears.
“Swine are built with their bel
lies near the mire. You are low
enough, the lot of you. But still
you are built In the image of man.
You walk upright on two legs. God.
you have to stoop to get your
snoots in the slime.” t
They exchanged bewildered looks*
A murmur rose through the group
of costumed revellers. Bar bar*
watched the speaker with wide eye*
in a white set face. There was a i
small spot of red set In each of her
cheeks.
Bravo’s voice rose.
“If you had the courage of your j
vices, that would be someth .ng-
But, no. You’re weak, bloodless. (
Your meagre lusts can't be roused
to the point of action. You re 0®
dull to be decent, too timid to
Indecent And when you die, 1
don’t know where you'll gp
ther heaven nor hell will wani
you I”
' 'The countless tortured thoughts
of months of solitary despair strut*
gled for simultaneous utterance,
Bravo was incoherent There was
a suspiolon that he was drunk -■ 1
doubt he wasn't completsly sohei
