Brent restored the receiver to its
hook and went into the library,
humming a gay little tune.
Her air OF innocence irritated
HonOra, who laid down her paper
and spoke sternly.
What did Tom Chandler want?"
Mildred waited for some seconds
before replying. Then she tossed
her head defiantly.
::What do you mean?" she
evaded.
Il mean that it seems strange
that a man with whom you quar-

he comes TO town on A furloUgh.

Her sisters tone changed.

Cant you talk as well IL stand

Il hope you will not resent it,

that perhaps you have forgotten
that you were Disguised with Tom
Chandler because of his habits and
associates. He is the same man
now that he was before he en-

HE is not necessarily the same

contemptuous in spite Of the speak

does Tom Chandler know OF the
war after a few months spent in
camp on this side Of the Atlantic?
I acknowledge that the experiences
Of the men on the fighting front
have made new beings Of some OF
Them. They face danger and death
there, and such things try mems
souls-and awaken them to what is
true and right. But little while in
a New England training camp will
not transform a mans entire ma

You don't want to believe that
there is any good at all in Tom"
Mildred accused
Il do believe he has possibilities
for good. But that is beside the
question, Milly. What puzzles me
is how he dared call you up today.
You certainly gave me TO under

in anger"
"And 1 was a fool to tell you OF
IT." Mildred declared YES. we did
part in anger. Then when ! saw
