now at Fort Bliss, Texas, received
a disappointment when he was
notified Ly the authorities at
Camp Peary, Ohio, that he would
be disqualified from competition
in the National Rifle matches to
be held there at the end of this

CHAPTER XIII
The next morning Lily did an
unheard of thing-for her. She
got up at o'clock.
She bathed, brushed her bright
hair until 1t shone like spun
copper, powdered and painted her
face with the greatest care, and
slipped into brand-aew sports
outfit that she had bought for
her honeymoon. A cunning silky
thing OF sea-shell pink bound with
white braid.
Two or three times, while she
was dressing, she tiptoed out into
the hail to look out OF the back
window and see il Pat was up.
The last time she went, she
saw him. He was fiat on his
back on the driveway, doing some
thing to the car. As she watched,
he crawIed from under 1t and
got up, brushing off his clothes
with 4 clean handkerchief
How good looking he was In his
shirt sleeves, with his head ul-
covered and the sun shining on
his dark uneven waves OF hair.
Lily caught her breath as she
looked at him. She wanted to
