seemed to have come up into her
throat, suffocating her, choking
her.
Hello, anybody homer" she
heard Ted Sloan calling from the
back porch as she started out to
the kitchen.
She set down the coffee tray
and unlocked the screen door,
letting him in. He smiled down
at her, gripping his pipe between
his teeth. His hands were in his
pockets and she wondered If the
checks were in one of them, too.
Curiously enough, he did not
mention them now. BE nice to

She nodded. 1T will if you'n do

him, and she managed to smile
back at him although she never
had felt less like it in her life.

take me to a movie afterward?"

parently they were still on the
best of terms, and Bills deter
mination was unquestioned.
1t was on Friday in the fac
tory that Jimmy Mccormick
came to her desk, shortly after
she had begun her work.
"A friend of mine from upstate
is in town." he said in his slow,
heavy way. "He's staying with
me, see, and before he goes back
he wants a party. Now was
thinking that maybe you and
your sister would like to 60 out
to Hollis Park tonight with u.s."

head, but they were not uttered.
And as the week wore on,
Georges coldness perceptibly
melted. It was a wonder she had
been able to remain cold for so
long q time.
The one fear that Ann had had
was removed. She had wondered
whether Bill Warren might take
his rebuff seriously enough to
disappear. give up, and try to
find some other girl.
But Bill was not like that.
Ann heard George talking to
him over the phone at Mrs.
O'Leary's. She was kidding him,

} the door. Georgette had not even
arrived yet.
She went up to her room.
Almost an hour before dinner,
three-quarters of an hour any
way. How could she tell every
thing in a few simple lines. She
tried, and tore up the result. She
tried again, and tore up that one.
Then at last she found the words
that expressed something of her
own loneliness, something of her
unconscious longing.
George must marry Bill-that
was the only thing that she
should do. But how could Ann
hope to open her eyes, hope to
make her realize, as she herself
did? Something of this was in
the short letter she finally wrote
to the Advice to the Lovelorn
Column.
In The Times
The next day passed, and the
day that followed it, George was
still cold to her. Ann was worry.
ing now, because she was even
uncertain of herself. And when
she had almost forgotten the i'm.
pulse that had led her to write
for advice, the answer came:
Ann held the paper between her
fingers, thinking, and thinking
hard, then she read it.

waited for George. She heard
her come running up the stairs
at last. George always ran. She
was always in a hurry.
Briefly Ann explained the invi.
tation.
Georges clear eyes explored her
face. I'm too tired" she said
promptly. Really. 1 am. I've got
a headache. I'm going to take a
hot bath and 60 to bed"
"a headache, Georgia But you
look awfully wen. You don't think
you'd feel better If you -"
George interrupted with a laugh
that was the least bit sco~nful.

CHAPTER VI

The letter encouraged Ann.
She found comfort in its predic.
tion-some day George would
turn to her. Meanwhile It was
foolish, useless, to try to force
love.
OF course George ought to
adore Bill and marry him, but
then she couldn't be expected to
do so overnight. Give her time,
let her see a little more Of life
and living, and she would come
to her senses.
Thoughts like these filled AIMS

Benny King of this city, after

counts of nine while standing on his
