MONDAY; DECEMBER 21, 1936. SYNOPSIS: Lespite the secret engagement of attractive Sally Warren, society editor, of the Warrenton Courier, and Terry Maynard, boyish blond aviator, Sally’s pretty, headstrong younger sister, Tip, falls in love with him. Philip Page, returning to his boyhooa nome, buys the Courier and backs the workmen of the Morris mill in their fight for better homes. Suddenly Terry is called to South America by his new job and Sally must decide ‘whether to marry him at once or stay in Warrenton. She knows Tip loves Terry, but does he want to marry Tip? She asks him, Chapter 19 ‘Tip’s Gone!’ “] DON’T know how it came about, Sally, honest 1 don’t.” Terry looked at her miserably. “You sent us out together. Time and again you told me to take her. | always liked the kid. Liked her spunk. She’s such a darn good sport—and loves flying, well. the way | do. But 1 never meant any- thing like this to happen. One night we were out here and she said—she—" “She said she loved you.” “Yes.” He looked at her pleadingly. “1 told her there was nothing doing. She knew we were engaged. | told her she was just a kid—didn’t know her own mind.” “But now you think maybe she does;”'Sally finished for him. “Per- Haps she does love you—more than 1 love you. People change sometimes. There’s no accounting for such things. No one is to blame for them.” Sally srarcely knew what she said, because she,saw now what she had been so stupid not to see. “Sally, do you know what you're saying?” Terry demanded. “You're |*| saying—that you don’t love me!” There was such comical relief in his voice that Sally could have laughed and wept all at once. “1 ought to have known long ago,” said Sally, amazed at her own power to lie. “But just because you had been the romance with a capital R for me so long, 1 couldn’t really be- . lieve I didn’t love you enough to marry you.” “Come on,” said Terry. “Let's dance. Let’s do something.” They danced, for the last time, Sally told nerself. She thought she had never loved him so much. All her anger was gone, her anger against Tip and Terry. She had only pity for herself. At every turn, he hurt her with his talk of Tip, his gladness at his re- lease. It was better that he should not know the truth about how she felt. If no one knew, then at least she could save her pride, whatever com- fort there was in that. Blind Selfishness Of Love £ -pHEYy did not stay long. Terry was eager to get back to Tip. All the way*heénie, he thtked‘of their -ptans, just as if Sally had never been part of them. “Do you think your father and mother will ever agree to letting her \ go with me?” Terry demanded. “She'd ‘run away in a minute, but I don’t want that.” “I think we can fix things up,” said Sally. “There won't be much time for them to think about it. We can rush * the thing through, have a ample} wedding at home.” “You're the best friend anybody could have,” said Terry. “That's, what we've really been all this time, you know—friends.” “Yes—friends,” said Sally. She was astonished at the blind selfishness of love like Terry’s and Tip’s. Perhaps that was the way love should be, so strong that it shut out al) but the lovers. Sally felt very old and tired. She asked Terry to drop her at the Office. She did not want to see him meet Tip. She could not bear their happiness tonight. For a long time she sat before her cleared desk, unable to move. The telephone jangled beside her and she picked up the receiver wearily. . Terry’s voice came to her, anxious and excited. “Tip’s gone! They don’t know where she is. Her mother says she was all upset. She called up somebody and made a date to meet him at the drug- store. She wouldn’t say who it was, and Mrs. Warren couldn't get a word » out of her.” “She’s probably gone out with someone to ride,” said Sally unsym- Pathetically. “Don’t worry—you can see her tomorrow.” Terry finally hung up. Sally sat where she was for a long time. Terry need not be so impatient. Tomorrow was a day. full of hope for him, for Tip. It was she who had to worry about tomorrow and all the endless days that would come after it Where Is Tip? T WAS very late when Sally left the | office and went home. Her ho was dark, but across the street a ligt burned in the old Page house. That reminded her that Philip Page had known of her engagement to Terry Maynard. Now he would have to know that Terry was going to marry Tip instead. Sally was glad she would not have to face any of her family that night. Perhaps Tip had missed Terry, and did not yet know that she had won after all. Sally rose early the next morning and took her shower before anyone but her stepmother was up and about. She went down and drank her coffee in the kitchen, ‘without waiting for breakfast. “You'll be thinner than you are now if you stop eating breakfast.” scolded her stepmother. “You look as pale as a ghost this morning.” “Tl go out and get something if f’'m hungry before lunch.” promised Sally, feeling as if she would never be hungry again. “Land only knows what time Tip got in last night.” sighed Mrs. Warren, “Terry Maynard waited and waited for her. 1 went sound asleep waiting for her, myself, and didn’t hear her come in after all.” They danced, for the tast time, Sally told herself. “She’s all right.” said Sally. “You don’t need to worry about her any more.” She was so early at the office that she got in a’ good two hours of work before anyone else came. At ten o'clock Mrs. Warren called up, her voice sharply anxious. “Do you know where Tip is?” “Why. nb. 1 haven't seen her since about seven o'clock last night,” said Sally. “She's gone.” Mrs. Warren's voice faltered. “She didn’t come home last night. Her bed hasn't been slept.in,” “T'll_be right home,” promised Sally:'“Don’t worry. I’m sure evety< thing’s-all right.” She hung up, les the others in the office should become curious.’ ‘ “Anything happened?” queried Lola Hopkins, turning her chair around to face Sally. “Ne, 1 don’t think so.” Sally made her voice casual. “I'll have to run home for a little while. [f anyone calls, take the message for me, will you? I'll be back as soon as I can.” “Sure,” said Lola, (Copyright, 1936, Bailey Wolfe) The frantic search for Tip leads ta t Milltown tomorrow, Today’s Horoscope Saturday.
