JERRY DECIDES
By LEOLA DREW
((. 1920. by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.)
"I suppose they sent me here be
cause I wis imed after you, Uncle
Gerald." Jerry dug Into his grape
fruit aggressively. "I hate Geralti.
Didn't they ever call you Jerrqy?"
"Men do," resionded Marbury ab
seljtly. All of his answers to Jerry
had been absent-inded(ha ones for the
past two weeks. Ile had run out of
details the second day after Jerry's
sudden arrival.
"MIss Millard calls you Jerry,
doesn't she?"
IIarbury frowned nnd viped off a
globule of juice from hIs waIsteoat.
"You should eat that in a lba thtub,
Old mai. Can't you be careful?"
Jerry pushed back his plate coin
forta b1ly.
"I'm through," he announced. "What
are we going to (10 today?"
iar''tiry read hIs newspaper, pre
tendingot to iear. As an en tortaila
ment conniit tee of one for Margaro.'s
ran1(1 and only le had ofliciated for two
weeks, and the thing was getting oil
hIs nerves. There was no special rea
son why his sister should have sent
Jerry on for a month. She knew he
lived in an exclusive hachelor apart
men it witl one Jap in tiserva nt. Kato
had left (Ile lirst week, after Jerry had
brought in it dozen fresh crabs and
put then in the lee hox.
"No delight I lindisciplined youth,'"
hle had sald siglingly. 'Me go re
iciantly but sool."
Since then Marbury had been at
[hIe mercy of Jerry. IHe had consti
tuted himself private secretary and
hiousehboy pro ten., whenI he wis not
in the basement chumming wIth the
engineer, or on tile roof sending off
aerop)lales to the joy of Madison ave
nue. 'When hIs uncle returned from
the club before dinner lie would give
a report on the day's calls.
"That tailor wants you to pay the
spring bill anyhow. Says you can let
the summer one go till fall. I told
him you11 had the measles badly and
had left for the country. And Mrs.
Joc-elyn asked If you could go to her

and1( I tohIl her yes, If there was good
fishing. 'Thamt rIght? And a fellow
namied libbie Newvell wants you to

how about that supper with-"
"C(iut it," sid M~arbuiry briefly. ''I'll
call him11. ild Miss Mlllar-d call up?''
''No, hut I called her four times,''
ginnuied Jerry. "Gee, thatl's se
girl, Uncle Gehrald(. She said I could
caIIll hr up any old1 t ime I liked wvhen
it got slowu here for 222e, and12 she(
thiniks It's awful for you to leave mae

''"Fino ing to do, (-lt mec out over

"Yelp. M~rs. Hamiilton's hack andi
wa'nts y'ou to comefl over as sooni as
you get in. I toldi her you couldni't
becaulse we wvere going to the theater
tonight. What's up?"
Marbuiry reached the telephone M
02ne strlide and called a hotel number.
while Jerry stared at him.
"Hello, Mrs. Iiimllm, please.
What? Then page her."
T1hat had hnplpeurd twuo nIghts ago,
andi Jerry 1222( 'ined alone twIce In
the little prh ute (lining room dlown
stairs. ! i ( idnl't like0 It. Somehow
he r'ewtitedl Mrs. Hamnilton. Is uce
hadit beeni mlood~y andt cheerful by fits
and( starts. it' got (out 2a iarge mtouint
ed1 photograph and1( star'ed at it long.
So (11( Jerry aifter his departurie, and
lie did( not like 11er. She was very'
lovely, In evening dIress, leanIng back
in a carved ecclesIasticnl sort of chair,
very slenderi' and1( drleamny-eyed and1( gra
ciouis, bult Jerr'y summhiedl her up ini
one word : she looked "sort of shlmipy,"
he t houghit. Mrs. Hamilton's admhiilrers
ailed it languorous gr'ace, hut Jerry
.2( n14 chlivalry3. Ov'er on the mantitel
stood anlothe~r photograph lie lIked bet
ter- -i. dri standoing bn an1 01(1 borat
lanldlig In a usweater, short spoit skirt
and white tamn, smilIng back at one,
her hands deep in her pockets. This
was Nan Millard, and Jerry did sone
hard thinking on her account. Before
the coming of Mrs. Hamilton she had
been Marbury's principal concern iI
life.
"Did Aliss Millard," Jerry began,
and stopped short, fingering the pearl
studs on the bed. He had almost
thought out loud. "I mean, Uncle Gor
ald, which are you going to marry?"
Marbury's fingers fumbled over his
ties in the drawer. le missed Kato's
ministrations.
"I like Nan the best," Jerry added
in what lie tried to make an offhand
manner.
"So do I, old man, come to think
of it," Marbury answered between his
teeth. "Trouble is, the ladles have the
preference. You can't club them and
race for the nearest honeymoon cave,
you know. Allss Millard is not ac
cepting a man with only ten thousand
a year. She lacks the essential femin
nine quality of sympathy, whlich is a
bit beyond you, isn't It, Jerry?"
"Hlas the widow got it?" asked
Jerry earnestly. Marbury stared at
him flxedly. ,
"lHow do you know she's a widow?"
"If sile's Mrs. Somebody, you
couldn't marry her unless she was,
could you?"
Ai1arbury wIls silent. Oddly enough,
the boy's words stirred upi a dormant
sense of honor. lie wondered where
old Hamilton was, anyhow? Left in
som1e Conl Venti ent post abroad, prob
ably. There had been a Frieh d-i
vorce, lie knew, and the rumor that
Fracsti would marry soiebody he
had been jealous of ov(r there. All
at once lie looked at the photograph
on the mantel, it Nan's clear, wide
eyes and sunn1y smile, at the sweet
ness and wholesomeness of her girl
hood, aind le sighed.
"I like her best, ',,o, old man," he
said, "only she won't have me."
The next day Jerry called up Miss
Milla rd and Invited her to call for
111111 and take lhhn to lunch so they
:ould get acquainted. She -was ever
so much better than her pictures, he
decided at first sight. Brown eyes
and(] reddish brown hair, and little
freckles over her nose like gold dust.
And lie loved to answer her questions
about Marbury. She was so delicate
and naive about it. Jerry understood
perfectly. So lie lielped her out. First
he gave his uncle a character for good
temper and kindness and all around
splendid fellowship. Then lie told how
worried lie was about hIm. They were
in a well-known restaurant, at a table
near the window, and Jerry felt safe.
"I can get him here In about two
iniumies," ierry said eagerly. "HIe'.
just overi at the club, and he'd coie
in one hop if you said so. Ile's ter
ribly vorried about you."
"!e seems to be," smiled Nan. "You
doni't understand, Jerry."
"ure I do," inslted Jerry. "But
lie just sees the widow Because hI
needs sympathy. lie snys you lhaven't
any, and you want somebody witli
more imoney, I don't helleve i word
he says." he added, hastily, at tho fire
in her eyes. "But why did you thron
himi down?"
"le never asked iie," laughed Naun
scornfully. "Jerry, I think you're four
flushing."
But she spoke to an empty chair
Jerry reached a telephone booth ani
enlled the club in triumph.
"Say, that you, Uncle Gerald? Thh
is Jerry. Well, it's 0. K. Comiie oil

hnppily.
