She knew that he saw this-that
he remembered. Her breath caught
painfully.
He pretended to notice nothing.
But when they were sitting on the
beach, he began to talk about the
war. He said: "Isn't it singular the
frenzy OF sacrifice that can move q
whole nation? Think Of all the fel-
lows who threw away their lives!
i wonder how they'd feel it they
could look down now and see that

He looked up suddenly, his eyes
challenging her: "What / say is the
truth, Sandy. And you know it..
don't you ?"
She looked back at him. tingling
from head to foot. She answered,
"Yes!"
As she came into the lobby late
in the afternoon. Mrs. Mcneil was
waiting. Her placid face was struck
with annoyance.
She said: "Sandy-how is this i?
Why didn't you tell me - She put

and it was too late to run. He picked
them up, but this time he did not
squeeze them. He ,whirled them
around over his head three times and

they were in place quite as queer
