There she saw the injured girl, propped up with pillows in the big arm chair. She ig- nored Connie's words completely and | +, walled on into the room. “I'd like to roll you around the block,” Connie thought _resentfully. She closed the door behind Stephen and let him follow Pamela unan- nounced while she hurried back to her mother to tell her Pamela was there with Stephen. Mrs. Lawrence glanced at her housedress. “You go back and stay, Connie, until I change,” she said nervously. “She would come at this hour,” Connie remarked. “Poor Milly, poor child,” Mrs. Law- rence said to herself as she hurried out into the hall and down to her own room. In a few minutes she came to the living room, looking very neat in a dark printed silk dress that Mildred had given her for Christmas. Pamela was surprisingly sweet to her, coming up as she stood uncer- tainly in the doorway and asking about her “broken arm.’ “It was a burn,” Mrs, Lawrence said absently, her eyes on Mildred. She saw that the girl was pale and | to trembling. Connie stood by her chair an arm thrown round her sis- ter's shoulders. AFFECTED BY APRIL LOW TEMPERATURES Grass Needed for Spring Feed- ing Checked; Some Dakota Cattle Deteriorate The matter.ef community educa- tional talks, discussed by Michael Tschida, was indorsed as good policy for the banks. It was urged that banks, whenever possible, send out speakers to community meetings, service club luncheons and other gatherings to talk on financial sub- ects in a way to enlighten the lay- men and farmers. Governor Luncheon Speaker The luncheon and afternoon pro- gram was put through as arranged, except that Henry Handtmann, sher- iff of Morton county, was not able to be present and join in the protective talks dealing with hold-ups.

It was almost more than a mother could bear, she thought— seeing her child’s heart break be- fore the happiness of a girl who seemed to take all that the world had to offer for granted. * * * She hoped and prayed that Ste- phen wouldn’t divine what anguish his visit and Pamela's was givi Mildred. She knew her daughter’ pride, and the thought that she had left her to fight alone to conceal her pain drove her to make the lemon- ade in haste.

That's what she had come for—to show Mildred that even though Stephen might rush up see her the very first night he was out of jail it didn’t mean a thing. er OW [s] [ale [els] 33.

Stephen considered it just a bit of polite social whitewashing. That it was a knife thrust in Mildred’s heart occurred to him no more than it did to question Connie's statement that Mildred had a sweetheart. She had been very careful on her visits to him in jail to give the oc- casion no more than a friendly as- pect. Stephen considered her a true- blue ally, loyal and whole-hearted. It wouldn't have surprised him to learn that many men loved her. He drank his lemonade thirstily, grateful for its acid coolness on his parched throat. + Why the devil didn’t Pam stop her prattling? Couldn't she see that Mildred was tired and her mother looking harrassed? And that young Connie stood there scowling at them like a black-browed hater? It made him nervous. x ek But Pamela didn’t allow anyone to tell her when it was time to go, Ste- phen knew by experience. “We owe so much of this to you,” Pamela was running on, having seat- ed herself on the edge of a chair she had pulled up close to Mildred’s. “I must send you something from Africa.

We're going there after we leave Africa and then we're going up to Norway for the ski jumping. “Oh, you just ought to see Norway in winter, Mildred. I know some English people who have a place on the coast near a little town called Mandel. I was there two years ago. It’s the loveliest spot. I can’t think of a more idyllic place for a honey- moon. We can walk for miles through the park—all the land be- tween the village and the beach is a park, if you please—with moss a foot deep and the most intriguing and un- expected little glens and dells and glades and...” she paused, breath- less. “Valleys and vales and dales and dingles,” Connie carried on. “Why don’t you get a thesaurus?” Pamela lifted an eyebrow. “Really, they do teach everything but man- ners in the public schools, don’t i Pressure of her fingers told Connie of her gratitude for having put an end to Pamela’s raving. Only it wasn’t at an end.

She did not pause in her running com- ments even to say no, let alone thank you. The kick she was getting out of telling Mildred her plans for her wedding and her honeymoon—while it wasn’t all that she hoped it would be—was better than anything she could get out of a glass of lemonade. Mildred wasn't reacting the way she had hoped. There wasn't a sign of envy on her face. Suffering, yes, but Pamela couldn't be sure that it was\not caused by physical pain and the experience Mildred through the day before. Pamela had eS. love each other as 1 do” girl, would he?

For all his modernism he had an old-fashioned sense of honor. His obligation to her father for securing his release from jail would help to hold him, too. But she didn’t want him telling her the didn’t love her; making any last minute confessions. One simply had to think of the future. It cer- tainly wouldn't be nice to live with a sacrifice.
