He didn’t really mean to tell her but it sort of slipped out and then he made Mother promise not to tell anyone. He says Cecily is very shy.” “She must be,” Lucinda said, sighing. “If I were snmnged to any n as attractive as Philip, I'd want~eyeryone in the world to know if, but you'd never guess they were from the way Cecily Philip is terribly in love with her.

Just as long as I’m not placed next to Cecily’s beau. I might take to asking him personal questions. Does that best bib and tucker go for me?” “But definitely,” Gloria an- swered, forgetting her recent an- noyance with Tony: “If you've something formal, wear it. I’m go- ing in ice-blue satin.” White’ faille with a halter back. Too low. Black velvet with puffed sleeves. Too last-winterish. Cecily took down her yellow crépe. She thought: If I wear a cluster of marigolds pinned at the belt and a narrow brown velvet ribbon tied in a bow at my throai, I ought to look formal enough for Mrs, Brewster’s dinner-party. tomor- row. Oh my, what a narrow social life I used to lead. I'll bet Gloria and Tony and the others own at least fifty evening dresses, She slipped on the yellow gown. It was a clingy dress, cut adroitly in straight, slim folds’ that out- lined her figure. Its simplicit; was dramatic; there was no toucl of contrast or detail in the long, tight-fitting sleeves, at the edge of the square decolletage. A care- lessly knotted sash of self-ma- terial outlined the contour of her boyish hips, lengthened the svelte line from her small hipbones cleanly to her toes, It fell in folds about her feet. New Softness HE studied herself for a few minutes. She wondered what had changed her from the boyish girl she had been a few months before, Did she imagine there was a new softness about herself? Was it only because she had become | conscious of her appearance? What had‘ become of the girl who liked to putter around in denim pants held up’ by a piece of string, That gir. was gone. In her place there was a woman. The woman sank down on the side of the bed, dropping her face into her hands, her lower li caught under the upper one. pensive, thoughtful pose. Her eyes moved slowly, not seeing the objects on which they rested. She was reliving the scenes that were now memories. Locke had kissed her. But had he kissed her because she intended | he should?.She couldn’t remem- ber what she had been thinking of. She had sent Laura away on a false errand because she wanted to be alone with him, Yet, it seemed to her now that when he kissed her she'had been thinking of some- thing else. She vaguely remem- bered being sorry for him. There | had been something so pathetic, something that played on her heart-strings, something that had to do with food. Why must she al- ways think that he was hungry? Perhaps it was because he had a lean look. He had kissed her. Then he had said he was sorry. “Ym glad! I wanted you to, Locke.” It was right that she should have said it. She couldn’t have kept herself from saying it, The words had bubbled out of her heart. She had felt proud saying it, proud to have him know. She had felt exalted by her very feel- ing for him, as though she had become worthy because her heart was a vessel that contained some- thing so worthy. Her thoughts tried to find coherency: to put them into words; she couldn’t. “You shouldn't have.” He had said she shouldn’t have wanted-him to kiss her. He had been gentle, infinitely gentle when he put her from him. His eyes had been dark and grave and his face wooden. He had tried not to ist her read his thoughts. “Butyshe wanted . to -kiss .me,” she mi ed into her cupped hands. “I knew that. I could feel his’ heart thutiping ‘next to mine, And he held ‘his cheek close to mine for a moment. That was a gesture of tenderness, and tender- ness is . . . is part of the heart.

First contest was a rout in, favor of Gene Thompson, Reds’ | hurler, who allowed the Bucs! only seven hits, his teammates piling up eleven to notch a 6 to! 0 victory. In the nightcap, the! Reds scored early in the game} and piled up a sufficient lead to| just offset a seven-run Pirate splurge in the fifth inning: Score was 10 to 9. St. Louis Cards defeated Chi- cago Cubs in a thriller. Both teams used two pitchers and hits! were few and ‘far between as the | 3 to 2 final score testifies. Though } winning, the Cards dropped <a half-game further behind the leaders, who are now out in front | |with a comparatively safe three-| game margin.
