She wanted to be in the house, the farm and the garden all at the same time. She was in the garden when Allen Bartell found her. Startled, she waited, the smile | with which she had greeted a rose | “e ner own planting still on her} ips. He came towards her with both hands outstretched and, involun- tarily, she lifted hers. He glanced at them, and his face, which had d, brightened. hearing fine things | told her, “and also | y working hard enough to rate a holiday. The | gang's com over and I have a} new speed-boat. How would you like to try it out with me while we | wait for Lily to buy something to match it?” Tomi laughed. Lily dlways bought clothes to match car, boat r background. “I'd love it,” she admitted. She could like Allen this morning,-be- cause she wasn’t afraid of him. ‘Then get into something warm. Well,” he added, seeing her frown, “carry something warm. It’s liable to be cold and damp on the wa- ter.” | Tomi looked up at the sun, still | a little pallid as it waited for the | fog to hurry back to its waiting post over the ocean, then sped in- to the house to change. Her scarlet bathing suit was | donned, and over this went a dark blue knit suit, blouse and slacks, a | knit cap of dark blue and scarlet, | scarlet socks and Del Monte sneak- ers of dark blue, laced with scarlet. “I wondered if I were never go- ing to get a chance to wear this,” | she told the watchful house- | keeper. “You look like something cut out of a magazine cover,” Mrs. Dougherty told her. Allen, in white duck and a heavy white wool pull-over was awaiting her. At the end of his little pier the speed-boat danced on the waves. Tomi looked at it | and stifled a remark. Lily would look atrocious in that mahogany shade, though her hair would match the brass trimming. “First, before we set foot in the | boat, you must promise me some- thing,” Allen said gravely. ‘Forget The Farm’ MI started to draw back. “From the moment you leave this pier until you return you're to forget about the farm. Forget there is such a thing as a frog, or | a will, or a million duties pressing down on your shoulders. Prom- | ise?” Tomi gave him a radiant smile do,” answered. “And, you must promise that you will forget, for that same duration of time, that I have any- thing to do with that will, that I am of ever was an attorney.” “Are you?” asked Tomi perftly. “There are times when I ques- tion it,” admitted Bartell “But seriously, I have complete faith in your word of honor. I want you to «Se me your word that you will look upon te as—well, any fellow rou’d meet socially, Fomit Tomi looked up and looked away. There were no dancing lights in Allen Bartell’s eyes. They were as serious as Pierre's had ever been. She thrust. out Pd vows | Poa — e a _— i |—” she stifled the words, that she wotild like him if he were not Timothy Toland’s attorney. “Yes?” prompted Bartell. “I think I'd enjoy you better if you were a—piano tuner.” “My word.” breathed Allen. “Now I have to take piano tuning. Come on.” Hand in hand they raced to the end of the pier. Jumped into the boat. There was the roar of the will, you o | 5 i Today’s Horoscope’ COC SSesEBS dE cbsbscoeess Today indicates one who is = 7 understanding, subtle and steadfast of purpose. | Most of your opportuniti€S adit fats sectirity will bé fatal. engine, then, it seemed to Tomi, the boat lifted on wings. The wings, however, were only the sheets of foam-tipped water that the long V-shaped prow threw up. The sun came out and the last shred of fog fled through the Golden Gate. Sea-gulls, startled from lazy floating, arose to screech their protest. The boat shot under the bri past Alcatraz, headed towards the blue bulk of Mount Tamalpais, then swerved as the straits. It roared past tankers, swished around waddling ferry boats and clipped close to ocean-bound freighters. Tomi ‘felt that all of life had been caught up in this mad burst | of speed, that she and Allen and the boat were one. “How d’you like it?” yelled Al- len above the thrum of the engine. “I could go on like this forever,” Tomi shouted back. Instantly there was a change in the engine’s hum. It sputtered. Allen leaned forward to pull at the various gadgets on the instru- ment board. It picked up an even hum and he headed it straight for the north shore. It sputtered again, and then it stopped abruptly. Allen poled it in on the beach, rolled up his trousers and stepped over to hold his arms out to Tonti. Tomi stood up and looked around. They had come ashoré on | a tiny isolated island, bare of ev- erything but coarse salt grass and sand. Small blue bayous dissected | all of the nearby land. Ducks with white throats and red bills, ducks with throats of blue and green and foolish white bands on their heads, paddled around, undisturbed by the visitors. Far to the south, the west and the north, mountains arose in an endless chain of pur- le. “You certainly chose a spot from which I couldn’t walk home,” laughed Tomi. Kidnapped! “(XOOD girl,” commented Bar- tell, and Tomi didn’t know whether it was because she had al- lowed him to lift her and carry her to the beach, or because she |had accepted the mishap with a laugh. She settled on the beach and watched him return to the boat. opened the little doors which led into the cavern under the hood. Out of it he was bringing blankets, canned goods, dishes, magazines, cigarettes, firewood ... and a little pup tent. “Allen Bartell,” she cried, jump- ing up. “You planned this!” A thousand foolish fears reared ugly heads to confront her. She was kidnapped. He could keep her here, or some place near here, for weeks and she could do nothing about it. Dotty was in league with him. Perhaps Old Abe, and Pierre? She sighed with relief. Not Pierre! But would Pierre find her before the farm had gone to wrack and ruin? Bartell jumped out, waded up to yhere he could remove his suj s, then with the chain of the in his hands he came closer. ‘Planned this?” he echoed. “You wanted to keep me away from the farm.” “Hold it!” he warned, and closed is ey “Remember your prom- Remember it, Tomi, because if I forget mine, I'm liable to add murder to the long list of mis- deeds.” Tomi she had promised. She’d live up to it. “Well don’t dawdle around,” she scolded. “I’m hungry and I want a swim before lunch.” “Hurrah!” Bartell tossed blan- kets into the air. “Seriously, Tomi, I hadn't = va ES I told Dotty I was kidnappi ou for the day because she ana Abe had said you must have a good rest and wouldn’t take it.

Mean- while—" Meanwhile, he erected the tent and Tomi. stripped of her outer clothes, returned to find Allen also in his swim-suit. The water was cold and invigorating. They swam about for nearly an hour, then returned to hunt for |Kindling driftwood, start a fite with the compressed logs he'd | brought, and brew coffee, broil bacon, toast buns. Allen found some tall sticks and made the tent into an umbrella and lazily they lo 4 Never a wofd was said of the frog farm or the will. Allen, the man, was a delightful person to know.

YANKS (Special to The Citizen) NEW YORK, May 7.—Boston Red Sox climbed all over | the Cleveland Indians yesterday to win their game, 8 to 5, and take possession of first place in the American League again after va- cating it the day before. A six- run rally in the fourth inning |startea by Jimmy Foxx’s home run proved the margin of vic- tory. While the Indians and Bosox were fighting it out, the world’s champions, New York Yankees, were suffering another defeat, this at the hands of the Detroit |Tigers, who pushed across _five jruns in the eighth and ninth in- jnings of their game to win, 6 to i4.
