The other is Co pupil of hers named Mike Han- nigan. who is the handsomest youth Carol ever has seen, and who is, un- fortunately, in the toils of Annabel fouroe. Carol sympathizes with Mike’s determination to rise above his poverty—but distrusts Anna- del’s intentions. ‘ Chapter 14 MIKE AGAIN . CTOBER came, prying loose the clinging, dusty fingers of sum- mer, The air was different: clear and heady and foreign, as if it came from far away and brought with it the promise of different, more ex- citing things. Before long there would be the slow, pervasive smell of burning leaves; and then winter, to mal mockery of the unfulfilled Promises of fall. “Why is it,” Carol demanded of Ellen, “that fal’ is so unsettling? Spring is supposed to get into your blood and make you do rash things, but all spring ever does to me is to make me quiet and lazy.” They were walking in the woods Beyond the high school. The woods Were still green and quiet, and pen- ¢ils of sunlight wrote in warm gold upon the ground.

But not even I’m brassy enough to dive in without a lead, because I may have guessed wrong.” “L don’t believe it’s serious, They're nothing but kids.” “That's what you think. Annabel’s kind is born a thousand years old, and Mike is a man whose mind won't catch up with his body for several years.” She got up abruptly. “Oh, damn! Let’s walk.” They went silently out of the Woods and turned into the street. The high school was quiet and de- Serted, biding its time until Monday morning. Over the front doors a huge cloth streamer shouted: “COM- ING! Joe Bacon. The World’s Most *amous Evangelist! Beginning Octo ber 10th!” : Carol’s eyes hardened. “The cir cuses seem to be heading south for the winter.” Ellen looked hurt. « heathen. tt may ‘You're 8 'Y Not b of religion, but they do bins ry They say he’s converted thousands.” “Yeah?

Wanta ride?” Three boys grinned on the front seat. One of the boys poured himself over the edge and opened a door bearing the chasse inscription: “She may be oid, but she still gets hot!” Rather than dampen enthusiasms they got in and were propelled nois- ily and cheerfully to Mrs. O’Connor’s doorway. The boys were reluctant to leave. They pummelled each other and guffawed. and Mrs. Taylor, cutting zinnias in the yard next door, looked and listened avidly. Carol said quickly: “Thanks for the ride, Jake. We've got torun...” and dragged Ellen up the walk with her. The Ford churned away. “That old devil would be there,” she muttered. “Hurry up; the bath- room’s probably pre-empted till mid- night already... .” ENIS arrived earlier than usual that night, and Carol came down to find him in the living-room star ing into an empty fireplace. For the first time since she had known him h didn’t rush to meet her: he turned slowly where he stood, and she looked at him and stopped breathing for an instant. The room was bushed and wait- ing. She said-finally: . When, Denis?” “Next °Wednesday. Oh, God, Caroli.:.. !" He turned his back again’and the silence throbbed. She sat down, not because she wanter .u, but because her knees were shaking. “Well... we're supposed to re- Joice, aren't we?” “Are we?” He moved across the room, toox her hands and pulled her to her feet. “Come on, then: let’s go over home and—rejoice.” Mr. and Mrs Ford were out, and Carol felt a vivid embarrassment at the obviousness of her destina- tion and Denis’s. In his father's study Denis took her in his arms and crushed his mouth against hers, then they stood apart : nd looked at each other. Denis’s eyes, she real- ized incredulously, were as wet as her own. She had never before seen a man cry, and the sight was shat- tering. He said hoarsely: “Sit down, angel, and let’s talk... .” But when they were on the couch he kissed her again, longer and harder than be- fore. “Tell me about it,” she prodded him. Anything to disnel this feeling of a rope tightening ahout them, drawing them togethe. again. “It’s the Washington job. Hunter's leaving Saturday for Russia, con- found him!” “Don't be an idiot.” She tried to cay it sharply, bu: the wore sounded like a caress. “You can’t sit here forever; you're lucky to get a job. And—I can’t think of a better place from which to—laugh at the show. Right at the ringside.” “Yeah.” His mouth looked harsh and young. “Only I don’t feel like 5 Day-! explorer, ton, Ohio, inventor, General Mo-' ago, tors Research head, born in Ash-! son of | France, bom 65 years ago.

Men didn’t fall in love as precipitately and thoroughly as Denis without a great deal of practice. He lifted his head and looked at her. “Carol—come with me. It’s fifty a week. We could live on that.” “You know as well as | do that it won’t last. You love me now: I'd be an idiot to doubt it. But you've loved girls before, and you'll love a lot more. And for all my loose re marks, I’ve still got a passion for permanency and stability.” He took her hand and looked thoughtfully at it, “You'd be the best ballast\in the world, angel. I can’t imagine going haywire if I had you.” “No, Denis.” He searched her face for several 4. ods, then visibl, pulled himselt together. “Well, I guess I'm licked. = She ti .to explain her refusal, but her voice was toneless. “Denis, it seems to me that some- body’s always depending on me. Milly does it, and Pat. Even the most promising pupil in school. Can’t you see that I'd like somebody to lean on myself? Tell me again that I’m a coward; I know it.” “No.” His voice was as dead as her own. “I guess I'm the coward. But would you come if I made it alone for a while?” “I think I would. Try it and see.” “I will” He said it quietly, sub dued by her passivity. “Now I’m go- ing to fix a drink. And we'll talk about...” he smiled dimly, “what stein?” (Copyright, 1936, by Martan Sims) Caro! goes, Monday, to a tare- weil dinners ee \ Snartcuiene England, 52 years ago. } j | President Albert Lebrun Count Maurice Maeterlinck } !made up a part of the afternoon’s | i | | { j tion yesterday afternoon at Rest | the winner of first prize, | the second went to Mrs. William forange juice being served. | Habana-Madrid | At Raal’s Club ; tra will play for the dance being | will be placed | White.
