he did not answer Myra's question as to

TT WAS simply the elimination of all
of the misgivings in Jacks mind that
made him finally resolve to go away. He
wanted to go away and think matters
out, and to leave Ruth utterly free of
his influence for time just to see how
matters would shape themselves. Per-
haps the short vacation might even serve
to decide things happily for both Of them,
although the doubt of that in Jacks
mind was already beginning to bother
him. At least, he reasoned, the vaca-
ton could do neither of them any harm.
At first he had thought he would tell
Ruth. He would go and see her and
simply say that he was going away for
a time In Jacks utterly straightfor-
ward way of doing things, there was
nothing of the dramatic, nothing to
provoke interest and pique through
curiosity. The idea of making Ruth
wonder about his whereabouts If he
went away without telling her never oc-
Cured to him.
Then he met Myra Briggs on the
street. and something about Myra some
how invited Jacks confidence. 1t might
have been the way he was feeling. 1t
might have been the fact that he was
looking out of sorts and worried that
made Myra suddenly pity him, although
she had told Ruth all manner of scath-
ing things about Jacks easy way OF
doing things.
But they did stop and Myra said after
the usual greetings. "How's Ruth? l
haven't seen her in ever so long"
Jack looked surprised.
why. l thought you two saw each
other often. I know you're responsible
in a way for Ruth's new work.
Myra looked instantly interested and
so surprised that Jack exclaimed again.
II guess she's been so busy, she hasn't
had time to tell you about it." He con-
fessed
What is it, war work, jack"
"Oh yes. of a sort"
81 take it that you don't approve
Jack hesitated, We'll, not altogether
he said finally. Gee, l haven't seen
anything of her."
Myra had it on the tip of her
ready tongue to say something singing
to the effect that 1t was the least he
could sacrifice, when she stopped in
time She saw to her surprise that
Jacks manner was not selfish, he was
not conscious of any lack of patriotism.
Hes simply unconscious Of it,
thought the girl to herself wonderingly.

don't think he's Stacking work so much
as he is not thinking anything at all
about it." Which, If the truth must he
told. did a great deal toward boosting
Jack in Myras critical soul.
Does she enjoy it, Myra asked
dryly.
"Tnjoy 1t? She talks of nothing else

anything. ! think she's changed" His

Myra felt quick stab of pity for him
even though she did not entirely ap-
prove of him.
