It’s my ess Trenton picks the village elle wherever his business takes him: and has himself a hefty govl time—while it lasts. You said he was only giving you a rush!” The black curls bobbed assent- ingly agains. his shoulder, but her eyes flung a welcome to the tall young man who was skating across the floor toward her. She smiled mockingly at Forest’s disgruntle- ment as he surrendered her to the newcomer. very important business, if you ask me.

When will you marry me, Sue?” She colored, more with annoy- ance than embarrassment. “I won’t. I don’t love you, Bob. I just finished tellin. you so.” “I didn’t hear you.
