At the sound of Don saltwater

upon her pillows as II she had al

broad shoulders. Almost 'lmmedi-
ately she fell asleep.

comfort of his gentle hand.

seemed to be sweeping over her,

Don't tell me, dear. I'm sure
you wouldn't have done anything

boasted to Walter Henderson that
she wanted to burn her fingers. She
would involve Maxine.

Monday, How can 1 ever stand the
unending monotony of another
week?' 1t was ended now. Cut off

Sonia shook uncontrollably. The
future terrified her. She would never
feel safe again. Tragedy had come
swooping on her out of clear sky.
She would never be able to force
herself to another decision Of any
kind.
Then she saw the gray ambulance
rolling down upon them. 1t might
as easily be the hearse to carry her
away. For one sick, guilty moment
she wished it were. No more prob
lens to meet. No more temptations
which, could produce such I'm
expected portentous results.
She shook her head obstinately
when they approached with a
stretcher. She was not going to a
hospital. She was able to walk. She
staggered up from the ground and
started off dizzily; then something in
her tortured brain snapped She felt
herself crumpling into a deep, soft

Pain, pulling at her nerves like
hundreds of tiny wires. forced her
back. She was lying in white. mar

her. Strange voices in her ears! Not
one soul she knew! She could not
endure the aching loneliness. She
felt that she would sing into a bot
tomless pit II some one did not hold
out a familiar hand. Whose hand
was it that was so comforting? So
strong that II could hold her firmly
on the very verge Of dissolution? she
began to mutter between set teeth.

Don smiled again but his face was
sorrowful, mo one will know where

She was instantly relieved.
Perhaps you had better call
mother. Be sure to talk to her

wouldn't understand"
Don nodded.

Yes, if you'll try to sleep. I'll
