Clive Doncaster. Sazta, seated opposite to him, followed his glance. She had been secretly amused and touched by him all day, but haun’t dared show it. What a puzzled, eager boy he was beneath the surface! Such a relief from Dicky. She was going to be young again. “It’s true, Clive,” she nodded. “I really belong to you.” “I’m kind of stunned,” he smiled. “It takes a bit of getting used to.” “For me, too.” She was wondering whether she might powder her nose. “It won't tomorrow.” He seized her slender wrist. “Of course it won't. Everything past will be forgotten.” “As though this were the first ‘time 1 had been married.” She read his .r0ughts, He shifted to-her side and slipped an arm about her, She waited pulse- less as a doll. “I’m the only husband you ever had,” he burst out. “Say so.” She took his face between her bands. “I can never thank God enough for having given you to mo.” That satisfied him for the mo- ment. He twisted the wedding-ring on her finger—the one he had be stowed on her. His mind was in a ferment, So many thoughts—so few of them to utter. Scarcely more than a week ago had he been caught in a sleep- ing compartment with her, he could have been dragged into her divorce. The conductor tapped and en- }fered to collect tickets, Clive be- trayed the customary nervousness of the newly wedded. Santa watch- ing, found his confusion adorable. Byidently he feared that the legal- ity of their relationship might be doubted. She'd experienced the g@ame pangs on her first honeymoon. When they were alone again, (Clive re-seated himself beside her. “You're awfully quiet,” she chal- “I fecl such an amateur,” he laughed. “I shall Jove living with you in New York.” She snuggled. Till now Dicky had afforded al- most the sole topic of their con- versations. Would he bring counter charges at tho last moment? Then, after her release from him, would he cease to annoy her? ‘Things had moved too fast. Clive had judged rightly that after her ordeal, Santa wouldn't be safe to conduct her own affairs, When he'd wurprised her that morning two weeks ago, she had cultivated the complex that all her friends were ashamed of her—that nobody would ever want to be seen with her. The best, cure had seemed to be ‘to restore her without waste of time to a recognized niche in society. He had urged immediate remarriage. She'd permitted herself to be per- guaded on the condition that they involved nobody in their rashness save themselves. Hence there had been no guests, no wedding pres- ents, Not even her parents had been notified: Their plans for the future had yet to be formulated, The irst minister they had ap iproached, on learning that Santa ‘was a divorcée, had refused to offt- |elate. The second had invited them \imto his parlor—this was a few hours ago—and united them as perfunctorily as if he'd been issuing @ dog-license, Now that his goal had been at- tained and they were man and wife, ‘had come the reaction, Her remark @s they had stepped aboard the train had started it, “Married again. | adore it.” In their marriage ‘Was everything to be again for her? He had approached this day with #0 much of reverence, which noth- ing external had reflected. At the back of his mind was the account he had read of the social importance which had been attached to her Gret nuptial 1782—John Branch, North Car- olina governor and U. S.

As though he were deter ; mined to spoil=-—” “He can't.” She slipped @ cool hand over his mouth. Kissed each seperate finger, “But Santa, dear, he bas go far, We've been married like outcasts; ag though we had no right to be married, That first minister who re fused to perform the ceremony, treated us as if we’d asked him to bless a Maison.” “He was a back-number,” she | soothed him. “You wanted me. 1 wanted you. We want each other more than anything in the world. Here we are, with our wish granted. Does anything else matter?” “Not really.” “Lcan’t tell you, Clive,” she cooed, “how I’ve longed for you. During all the time that | wag married to Dicky. Wicked of me, wasn’t it? 1 would imagine he was you, Close my eyes and imagine.” Glancing down, all he could see was her dark head against his shoulder, Fields rushing by, grew vague in twilight. “So you see, Clive, if it makes you feel better, even when I seemed to be Dicky’s I was yours.” “Mal me feel glorious,” he whispered. “And yet things that oughtn’t to matter often matter terribly,” she continued. “Dicky had had heaps of women friends. Something he tet out on the honeymoon warned me, I at once became afraid of what you're fearing now. But you're not an old story, Clive. You're excit ingly new. Always will be. 1 swear it.” He gathered her to him. “That's all right, little woman.” “It isn’t all right.” She twisted, “Tye got to make you certain, You're th gainer by my first mar riage.” “Draw it mild.” He was thankful the compartment was nearly dark so that she couldn't see his expres- sion, “I mean it. I've learned the mis- takes to avoid. I’m trained to be a wife. I wasn’t when you first asked me,” A flock of retorts winged across his mind, “But I’m not trained to be a hus. band, Santa.” “Everything's happened for the best,” she urged; “in the only best way it could have happened. All the faults weren’t on Dicky'’s side. 1 was unyielding, I'm not any longer, You have Dieky to thank.” You'll never catch me thanking him.” “Then you'll at least acknowledge that without intending to, he taught me to realize your value?” “It that’s the case, I wish you'd found some other way to learn my value.” She laughed, her lps all but touching his, Her laughter was startling, bubbling t-om the dark- negs without warning, “I'm so free--so happy. The hap- piness has gone to my head, I was in prison, Despairing, Then @ key turning and you,” He was consciencestricken, “Poor angel!” “I'm not poor,” She clasped: him stranglingly, “We're both rich,” Later, across the table in the din- Ing-car, she beamed at him. “Isn't it. marvelous how we can say absolutely anything?” He crumbed his bread. “I guess you thought I'd got cold feet.” “Didn't,” she contradicted, “1 thought that I'd had practice and you hadn't.” “Like learning to ride a bicycle?” He appealed to her superior wis- dom, “But look here, Santa, don’t let’a try to be too marvelous,” “Certainly not.” She pulled a monkey face. “This ts the last time we'll refer to Dicky, We've been placing flowers on the grave of the dear departed.” Clive grinned whimsically.

In , fact, the time for going ahead was yesterday but today is not too late if Florida is awake and ready. “Florida is faced with a grave Two-thirds of the state’s friends have been lost, the first third as a result of the eco- nomic situation in Florida and the second third as a result of world- wide conditions.
