She:had been a fool, to lieve that he was sincere, “T’ve got to forget him.” “That’s the spirit. But don’t go “too wild. It won't help,” Peter warned her. But she must try it, » Petronella_ was determining, des- perately. She remembered some- thing Marigold had said once, jauntily: “Men and there’s always, another coming round the corner.” As a result of this resolve, the ladies of Rangoon very soon saw a change in Petronella Mallone. She became flippant; much gayer, thinner, and more attractive. They ceased saying that she was a sweet a and watched her carefully. Peter wrote ten articles, three * of which the Daily News cut dras- tically, but accepted. He and Petro- nella dined together, in celebra- tion. But although she helped him as much as she could, by passing on stray pieces of information, and occasional photographs to him, Petronella saw much less of him during the next few weeks. - She was conducting her first two violent love affairs. She ran them simultaneously. One was with Angus, an attractive, ill-mannered young man, with a mysteriously ad reputation. The other was with | yan, Graham Cox. Neither were Peter’s friends. One night she would go to the same dinner party as Angus. Leav- early, she would sit with hine ‘is new, streamlined sports car, beside the lakes. The following night, Graham would take her out. Once or twice, he chose the same parking piace as Angus, in which to make love to her. But Petronella said nothing. She was trying to behave with the samc insensitive- ness as Tony Lance had done. This was the kind of conduct men like Tony, Angus and Graham ex- ted and encouraged in women. he must harden herself. Rangoon society watched the triangle, and smiled. They sur- mised as to how far things had — They wondered if Petronella fallone cught to be warned that neither of the men were likely to want to marry her. But decided she == capable of looking after her- self. “Shouldn’t have thought Petrel was like that,” Colin confided, gloomily to Hugh. The other simple, critical young men whose friendship she had deserted, reasoned and remonstrated with her. Abruptly, one evening, Petro- nella discovered for herself that Peter had been right. It came to her suddenly. She had gone for a ‘walk ‘beside ‘the lakes. She stood looking at the yachts from the sailing club, which moved, with little wind, across the translucent water. She was listening at last to the voice, _ her spirit. It spoke clearly. ‘You Haven't Forgotten’ “you don’t ate Angus or oa ham. - You ‘ha Tony. eit be the All.

Pos- sibly he was just afraid he might care too much, and thought it ‘fair- est to you to-clear out.” - “He could have written and ex- plained.” “You wouldn't have tried to cut him out, if he had done ‘that. And | his jobs won't get any more salu- brious as the years roll on, if he lives, as he wants to live. Petrel, what woultin’t I give to be able to get a story like this. Listen: ‘I was taken to interview the war lord Hi | Kai Shek under an armed escort of ten Chinese soldiers——’ ” With their bent heads close together, ‘Petrel and Peter read, for the first time, an article by Tony Lance. When they came to the end of it, Petrel straightened. She was smil- ing a little. Her eyes were shining. “Peter, he is worth loving! I’m sure of it. He’s hard, and callous, according to sentimental stand- ards. But 1 can’t marry anybody else, until T’'ve met him again.” “He’s in:China.” “He won't stay there. There will be a frontier incident, and a flare up somewhere in Europe. He'll be recalled.” “This makes your sojourn in the land of pagodas rather a waste of | time. Poor father confided to me the other day that you were find- ing your feet nicely. He doesn’t al- together approve of the reputation you’ve'been getting, but he thinks very soon you'l] meet somebody | who can control you.” She grimaced. “I know. Mr. Crampling or Major Tyler. Go on writing Peter! Your account of the jail outbreak was fine. They printed half of it. I think you may yet get an offer of a job, after all. As Rowdon said you might.” Peter slumped on to the old sofa. “Hope to goodness you're right.

That is going | to give him some money to play | yale. Once the paddy crop is cut, 1e; make trouble. We shall see.” Muddled And Miserable i be WAS Christmas Eve in Ran- | goon. Petronella sat beside Co- lin, thinking how strange that seemed. The car was open. Warm air rushed past them. They were both coatless, in evening dress. Above them lay a deep blue sky and stars. Against that sky, the great pagoda, floodlit, gleamed as golden as a fable from Arabian Nights. Ahead of them, the Gor- don-Stuart’s house stood, with lights in every window, and the garden turned into a pantomime version ot har fnayy by hundreds of little colored lanterns. Now they could hear the dance music. They were playing that haunting new tune, which would soon be old: and ‘first it had twisted her about Ten: Jess sure she cared. “It's Christmas Eve.
