CHAPTER XIII.
SIGNALS.


n mere were a good many days after
d thal-not days at all, really, but an in
il ;erminable period of night-which
were broken for Jeanne by no ray of
hope whatever. She kept Philip and
herself alive. from day to day, and this
i occupation left her hardly time enough
to think whether there was anything
10 hope for or not.
Much of the time Philip was deliri-
GUS; sometimes violently so, and yet
she often had to leave him When she
did so, it was with no certainty at all
that she would find him alive upon her
return.
At last the conviction was forced
upon her that Philip was actually on
the road to recovery. His delirium be-
came less violent and occurred at long
er intervals. The frightful condition
OF his wounds began visibly to I'M
prove. Instinctively she resisted this
conviction as long as she could, refus-
Ing almost passionately to begin to
hope-for the return of hope brought
an almost intolerable pain with it..
Without hope there had been no fear,
no apprehension-just as in frozen
limb there Is no pain. But, as the pos
stbility of his recovery became plain
er, the slenderness of the thread by
which his life was hanging became
palmer, too. A thousand chances
which she could not guard against
might cut the thread and destroy the
hope newborn
He was able, at last, after a long
sleep and a really hearty meal of sus-
tanning food-which she hardly dared
give him-to get up and walk out OF
their shelter to the star-vaulted beach
Fifty PAGES or so was all he was eQu ::
to; but at the end of the little pro-
enade he expressed a Discrimination to
go back to the stuffy little shed which
had been the scene of his long illness.
The clean, wide, boundless air was
bringing back the zest for life to
him. So Jeanne brought out from
the hut great bundle of furs and
made nest of them on the beach,
and there he lay back and she sat
down beside him.
DO you remember, Jeanne" he
said, the first time we sat out like
this, there on the ice-foe beside the
Aurora, and 1 told you how I had
learned to fly?"
She locked her hand into his before
she answered

Nor l. either" he told her: and,
somehow, can't believe it now-not
fully;-uot this part of 1t, anyway.

zon, rose aagin and completed it's cir
cult to the other side
She sat there beside him, breath
less, almost lifeless with suspense
while that pencil traced it's course
back and forth from horizon to hori-
zon, stopped sometimes on the zenith,
to turn back upon itself-sometimes
continuing through unchecked. At
last her breath burst forth from her
in a great sob. She turned and chung
to him wildly
Philip" she said, ''it can't be that
it can't-it can't"
Tell me-tell me what it looks like
what you think you see?"
She stayed just where she was, cling
ing to him, covering to him, as If some
thing terrified her, her face pressed
down against his shoulder

light-from a search-light."
He drew long deep breath or two,
and his good arm frightened about
her.

to furl his wings alone. From the proc
ess he looked up into Jeanne's face.

bright, bright with unshed tears, and
there was little flush of bright color

but l hoped you No::la."
Jeanne, dear" he said, you'll re-
member that always-my flight, I
mean But, sometimes you'll get to
wondering If it isn't the memory of

these old wings in an attic, some
where, and stroke them with your
hands, the way you did that night
when | furled them first upon the ice-
foe beside you"
She looked at him quickly, wide
eyed
What do you mean, Philip? Not
that-not that I'm never to see you
fly again?"
He nodded.
Somehow, up there, with all the
world below me, 1t never seemed real.
Even you never seemed real, who
were the only real thing in all the
world. The earth was only a spinning
ball, and there were no such thing as
men l wasn't man myself up there,
not even-even after you had brought
me back to life and given me soul
again. Somehow, to be man one has
to wear the shackles of mankind. l
can't explain it better than that, but
know it's true"
For long time she searched his
face In silence.
"You used to seem a spirit rather
than man to me" she said, when
would lie watching you soaring there
above me. And now-now It's | who
brought you down"
do you remember how told you
once that man like your father was
worth a whole Paradise of angels?
Well. I want to be man, Jeanne, as
near as possible such man as he
was And want to walk beside you
always"
A shift of wind from astern over
took them and the great ensign flap
ned forward, screening them for mo-
ment where they stood, from the view
of the rest of the deck. With sud-
den passion of understanding she
cIasned hin. close and kissed him.

The young woman who did the
two-step" with me remarked that
she was 'awfully glad' she didn't
have to go to the dance halls for
an evenings recreation.
"a girl never knows what sort
of place she is going to until she
gets on the floor" my fair part
ner of the waltz exclaimed.
'Why, here we girls all know its
right, and there can't anybody be
rude to us"
That seemed to be the spirit
pervading the school dance. The
boys, most of them graduates of
the school or young fellows who
have moved into the neighbor-
hood, tried to maintain a standard
of conduct far above that exhibit
ed in the dance halls of this sec
ton.
While not Chester6eldian in
manner, they acted as decent, re-
spectacle chaps. I didn't see one
of them grab girl by the arm
and yell: Come on the floor, kid?
A girl could refuse to dance
with young man without being
insulted. One girl told me as the

Practically all of the dancers
were between the ages Of IS and

worked during the day. Of the
girls ten are telephone operators,
two stenographers, and four office
girls. Half of them had at one
time attended school in the build
ing.
That same evening | looked in
at two other schoolroom balls"
and found good times, a whole lot
of laughing and merriment every
where: In no school did the jani
tor-the official 'bouncer'-have
to request any person to leave the
dancing floor because of question
able conduct.
All the teachers and principals
agreed that both girls and boys
demanded round dances: they
wanted to waltz and two-step and
wouldn't come to the school So
cial center if these dances were
not permitted.
Miss Perry, principal of the
Smyth school, believes that her
school dances will drive the dance
halls from her district. 1T is
much better here and dance to
their hearts content; than to do
the same thing in the halls where
rude and disgraceful conduct

characters will surround them"
she explained.
