Ruth Finds Sally Has Pawncd the Hing As the arc light on the corner revealed the occupants of the pass ing car, Ruth noted that Dale Courtney's brows were drawn to- gether.
 Well, of all the |. ." He stopped.
 Ruth wasn't urprised. II sup posed she was still seeing him. I'm afraid that she really likes him. I don't think she loves him. But she's infatuated. But I'm not wor- ryipg any more."
 Under the blankets in Dales' car, warm and safe once more, sitting close against him, she forgot Sally for a while. She might not have thought of her again If Q stop light, unnecessary at that hour, hadn't turned red as their car reached 1t. Another car was held up by it, too. Ruth recognized it as Hal Prichard's. Sally, appar- ently, did not recognize the other car. There were no sounds in the white night for a few seconds. Then suddenly Sally's voice came clearly over the space between the two cars.
 "I can't get any more money! And I'm through with you!" Whatever the man said was lost in the releasing of the brakes as the two cars started. Ruth for- got about Sally. She was telling Dale to give her week and she would marry him.
 All night long, through her dreams, Ruth heard her sisters voice. She wondered what she had meant. She was glad that Sally had finally realized that the man was merely using her as q pawn in some sort of game. Ruth was- mt surprised, when Sally tele- phoned in the morning.
 Ruth, you have your pearls that belong among the family heir looms, haven't you?" she asked. Would you mind loaning them to me for few days? I'll return them"
 "You mean-that you want to pawn them for a little while, don't you, Sally?" Ruth asked.
 "Of course not! want to wear them to a party. A dinner tomor- row night"
 Wnere IS tne uanCe 1tutH asked.
 Al the. :" she stopped. "why do you want to know?"
 You want to pawn the pearls" Ruth answered. "Its funny never thought of doing that. could pay back the stolen money then. guess I'll do it.. Pearls aren't becoming to me, anyway. I won't mind losing them if I have to-"
 There was stifled gasp at tho other end Of the wire and Sally hung up. SRuth heard the click of the receiver.
 Ruth dressed slowly. Sally's call had awakened her. Dale tele- phoned before she was ready. She promised to meet him for lunch. and then put the pearls In her pocketbook and hunted up pawn
