lighted auditorium. Her mother

up of the party Jared on her a
little. She longed for dark and quiet
in which to compose her thoughts.
Good night, children dear. I'll
expect to see you at II tomorrow"
Lame was glad to be alone in the
car with Give. He didn't chatter.
He was a darling really. She smiled
at him. Almost she decided to tell
him of her encouner that day. No,
better not. Better to leave things
as they we're.
Give said abruptly. I'm afraid

She laughed and was startled at

She shook herself free. IT don't

You behave as if you hated me al
most"
The young man frowned at her.
I'm sorry. 1 wish I did some
times"
There was a film of tears in her
eyes. Her mouth had bruised, be-
wildered look.
She thought, Van wouldn't treat
me like this. Van is so gentle. Even
his voice is silky" She said, chok-

evening. I was happy, listening to
