about Maisie Blaze and knew why he wished
to avoid speaking to her. 1t was part Of
Williams character that he instantly turned
toward the speedster instead Of away from

watching the passengers coming down the
platform with an expectant eye.

William turned to survey the platform.

out of the station.

He hesitated He wanted to be on his way.

may be on the $40" he added
Maisie Blaze slipped into the seat of her
low car. in which one did not so much sit
As lie.
In the meantime" she said to William.
I'll take you home"
William was in the habit of walking to and
from the scarborough station. 1t was just
a mile. and he felt that mile walk morning
and evening was the least he could allow
himself. even II he did play golf every Sat

"I shan't. I'd much rather drive you over

beside her. He felt exposed In the low car,

He felt that. as long as they were going 50
slowly he ought to talk and he did not want
of anything to say to Maisie Blaze.
She said nothing. She seemed to be think

William was mildly occupied With this
question, when Maisie Blaze turned her head
and smiled at him. william felt curious

She paused. Her eyes were again on. the

William was more than a little surprised.
He had not been aware that Maisie Blaze had
any feeling about him. Also. he was curious.
He could not imagine what was coming.
There was no precedent in his experience for
such remark. He turned expectantly. to

Of the speetster and going into the house
"Well?' he said
Maisie Blaze drove her car the remaining
hundred yards and stopped it opposite Will

urally he turned to Maisie Blaze.
DO you mind my being quite frank7- she
asked. And as she spoke she locked straight
into his eyes The little points of light were
gone now; her eyes were velvety; it occurred
to William that Maisie Blaze was not, per.

was frivolous.
Il should be glad to have you speak frank.

really didn't know what to say. The truth
was. of course. that he didn't approve of her.

could hardly say as much. Besides he didn't

Not that you've ever said anything-I
