/ play with him after breakfast. She
played rafting good game. too. and
/ Bob was never quite sure whether II
was he or she who suggested that
/ they go boating in the afternoon. At
any rate. they went, and by evening
they had the activities OF another
day fully planned. The second day
was as strenuous as the first, and
Bob enjoyed it immensely. The
other girls. in the heeting glimpses
that they had OF Bob and Sally Web
ster, decided that they must be very,
very much in love. for Bob seemed
SO happy now and he had been so
grumpy before.
AS for Sally however. she was
| experiencing mingled feelings. She
liked Bob, on yes. very much IN
deed. but she was getting very tired.
! Not that she did not love outdoor
sports and things. only IL was some
time since she had done them, and
a mans way is so different from
girls. She was almost dead that
third night, yet she hated 10 say so,
because-well. because she was
afraid that Bob would stop liking
her.
Good gracious, Sally" Connie had
said when she found her prone on
the bed after an afternoon at golf,
give Il up IL IL wears you out So
/ only meant il in fun. Of course. and
you don't have to keep on. dare
say Bob bores you to death, any
way"

hut could you-wait little while for
me? I'll come back to you"
But to his utter surprise the lit
tie brown hand shook itself free
from his. and the shining brown
head pillowed itself on a pair of
Whitehead knees. Sally was cry
ing!
why what-have ] done. Sally?
| What"
OH she raised a tear-stained
face. I'm not what you think l am
at all, really I'm not. I've just
been pretending. I'm not athletic
except just a tiny bit at school, and
I'm just tired-to-deatht"
why Sally darlingl What-what
were you pretending for? What did
it matter? Don't you know I'd love
you anyway, whether you were ath-
letic or not? It's you I love, not
what you do"
"Truly?"
"Of course. poor tired little girl.
What made you do it?"
Sally let MIN take her hand again,
and wiped away her tears.
why. you see-I saw your pic

school And guess I fell in love
with IT, and So when Connie said
