Lanstron's voice was tremulous, as
II he were In awe Of her, while he
drank In the fact that she was there
before him at arms length, safe. alive.
She did not offer her hand in greeting.
She was incapable Of any movement,
such was her emotion; and he, too,
was held in a spell, as the reality Of
her, after all that had passed, filed
his eyes. He waited for her to speak,
but she was silent.

wincing as from knife thrust.
Her old taunt: sending men to death
and taking no risk himself! She saw
that he WINGED; she realized that she
had stayed words that were about to
come in food. She was marshallng
her thoughts to begin when the brittle
silence was broken by a rumbling Of
voices, stirring of feet, and a cheer.
"Lanstron! Lanstronl Hurrah for
Lanstronl"
The soldiers in the garden did not
bother with any Your Excellency. the
chief of stan" formula when word had
been passed Of his presence. Marta
looked around to see their tempestu-
Gus enthusiasm as they tossed their
caps in the air and sent up their spon-
taneous tribute from the depths of
their lungs. Conqueror and hero to
the living. but the dead could not
speak, whispered some fend in her
heart.
Lanstron uncovered to the demon
etration impulsively, when the conven-
tional military acknowledgment would
have been salute. He always looked
more like the real Lanny to her with
his forehead bare. It completed the
ensemble Of his sensitive features. She
saw that he was blinking almost boy
ishly at the compliment and noted the
little depreeatory shake of his head,
as much as to say that they we're
making a mistake.
Thank you'll" he called, and the
cheeriness of his voice, she thought,
expressed his real self; the delight Of
victory and the glowing anticipation
Of further victories.
THANK you'll" called the private with
a big voice.
Yes, thank you'll" repeated some of
the officers in quick appreciation Of a
compliment as real as human courage.
He stood smiling for a moment in
reply to their smiles; then, still smil'
ing. but In different way, he said to
Marta:
CAS- you say, that helpel" with nod
toward the bandage on her forearm,
and hurriedly turned away.
She saw him Involuntary clutch the
/ wrist above the pocket OF his blouse to
