sweetly.
Hello, there, Car she purred. isn't
it lovely here, Laurie?n
The fresh pink in Laurian's cheeks
famed to a grateful red. 1t was the first
time in years any girl had called her
Laurie, or spoken sweetly. Then Sylvia
Brown was presenting her friends. They
chatted a moment merrily about nothing
in particular, and Carson and Laurian
turned to go on. Their way was blocked.
A gray-haired man, in blue suit with
gold braid at the collar, was putting out
his hand to the GIRL and just behind
him matronly woman was beaming
upon her.

IF it isn't our little dune girl, like fish

Laurian laughed.

She stopped abruptly Her smile faded.
She made a nervous movement with her
hands, and her handkerchief dropped
to the floor. She glanced at her COM
panion.
How do you do, Captain Carson put
in quickly. "Name's Lee-Carson Lee
Fine evening, isn't it?'
They shook hands. Carson met Mrs.
Sims, and learned that the Captain was
in charge of the government supply

In her blue bathing-suit, with the smart
red rubber cap over her curls. she looked
more healthily, exhilaratingly beautiful
than ever.
And when she swan! Carson sat on
the edge of the raft, with his feet crossed
in the water, and watched her with open
admiration. She swan under water, and
on her back, and with an astounding
crawl stroke, and dived and floated. She
was like little mermaid girl just let out
of school.
He said something of the sort.
"Pshaw, she gurgled, rejecting his out
stretched hand and jumping lithely to a
place beside him. Il don't know how to
swim. just taught myself, dog-fashion
at first, you know It's about all l can
do. That, and fishing, and tramping.'
He wanted to tell her he didn't believe
there was anything she couldn't do.
Gee, but I'm hungry!' he exclaimed,
when, after dressing, they met later.
@Well,' laughed Laurian, IL think l

Carson laughed with her. you're

Really And he led her to the open
air cafe, where little tables were tucked
into corners, with the lake splashing under
the floor.
An hour later, in the twilight, they re-
luctantly got up. Laurian crumpled her
napkin with sigh. 1t might have been
a sigh of satisfaction. Signs are subtle.
They made their way leisurely be
tween the gay tables. Before one of them
Carson had to stop. Sylvia Brown stopped
him. Her bright blue eyes widened when

The infection hurt him. He knew she
was thinking of the things they must
have told him. As if to corroborate his
thought, she added:
Il wish they hadn't heard, just when
they We're being nice to me. But of
course they did,

ringing in his ears. And honest, simple.
open-hearted Laurian thought they We're
being "nice' to her!
They went to the dock without speak
ing. They rowed to the other side, still
wordless. He wanted to say things, but
the words that occurred to him seemed
less kind than silence.
At her door, however, the girl spoke
quietly:

She put out her hand.
"But, Laurian,' he cried, "you don't

Money didn't matter. He said so. She

"Oh,' she laughed. aTike's waiting for

And she was out toward midstream
before he could thank her.
He turned to his companions. They
avoided his eyes. Even Terry Prehn ap-
peared occupied with something else. Car
son felt the blood singing his cheeks. He
made some excuse aud left them.
THE next day his resentment fingered
1t was subdued, however, so that he
did not decline the days invitation, as he
had intended. Still, he could not keep
the picture Of Laurian Temple out of his
mind.
Next day Carson went boldly over to
the dunes, and tramped with Laurian
in the afternoon of the day following. And
that was really the beginning of their
romance.
1t sped afterward. They scarcely knew
what was happening. Carson merely
knew he liked her. That was enough.
She was. the kind of girl he had always
wanted to neutrality-suspicious., frank,
simple. She had mans liking for
things in the open; yet she was femi-

He slyly watched them pairing off the
couples. When they asked him whom
he'd like to take, he nonchalantly replied
that he didn't care. They fixed on Maggie

That sounded all right to Carson. After

Laurian to have good time. And when

her earnestly if she would 60, she hest

Granny Laurian called up the big
stairway that circled from corner of the
room, "I'll be back in few minutes"
She unlocked the screen, pulled the
wooden door shut, took key out of a
pocket in her skirt, and locked it, Her
action was SO simple that Carson didn't
know how to protest. He didn't want to;
he was being carried along by a strange
new instinct pulsing through him.

ARMY RULING
ON ORNAMENTS
New Regulations Have Been Outlined
as to Style of Decoration
on Collars.

The war department has made
public the new regulations in regard
to collar ornaments to be worn on
service coats and flannel shirts.
There will be no change in the,
existing regulations as to collar orna-
ments for the officers of the regular
army and the officers Of the reserve
corps. officers of the national guard.
taken into federal service, Will wear
the letters N G.. superimposed on U.
S.. the whole design to be stamped
from one piece of metal. Officers Of
the national army will wear the same
ornament, excepting that the letters
N. A. will take the place Of the let
tiers N. G..
The same general scheme will be
followed in the collar ornaments OF
enlisted men, the letters n. A. or N.
G. being used.
When the national army is organ
lied there will be three different sub
divisions Of the United States army.
To prevent confusion, officers serving
by appointment or under commission
In q subdivision of the army other
than that in which they hold perma-
nent commission will wear the mono
gramic letters of that subdivision IN
which they hold permanent commits
sion and the insignia Of the new rank
and insignia Of the corps, department,
or service In which commissioned for
the time.
In view Of the increasing number
of classes Of special and technical
troops, no effort will be made to de-
sign collar ornaments for these vari-
GUS classes excepting in a general
way. For instance, ornaments on the
left side of the collar will show men,
bership in the quartermaster corps,
whether the man is baker or
truck driver.
There will be no corps or depart
ment insignia for members of the
enlisted reserve corps or for recruit
tanning units as such.
