 Hired ?" Harry said then in a courteous voice. mean to say, but the word slip, ped out. Harry looked so compla- cent, so sure of himself. He didn't grin at her in the old infectious manner any more. He was almost stranger stranger .she caught her breath. He who had been so mad,y in love couple of years before! She remembered how shee had ran away to marry him that senior yer in high school. She had been poor then
 and popular. Nothing else. That made her think of Bob, the college boy who had come to her for help and whose friendship Harry hadn't understood. Maybe "Tm sorry, Harry. Tp not bored at all. I'm sad. Nancy's going away |. everything is making me that way"
 Maybe you need a vacation. Bermuda ." v
 She interrupted. "No thank you. I like it here better. YoN couldn't come anyway could you?"
 Not just now. Things aren't so smooth at the mills"
 "oh I'm sorryt" It had been long, long time since he had talk ed to her of the factories. 'ls the depression hurting them? 2"
 'It's htirting everything"
 "But = but you haven't asked me to economize."
 q know we have enough. Some other investments happened to be the right thing. And the factories will weather the storm. Nothing to worry about"
 The car stopped at the restau- rant.
 Jimmy and Grace had been hap pier as they followed the other more expensive oar.
 "Oh. Jimmy, it's fun being mar ried to you" Grace had said. for no reason at all except that she was thinking 1t, as she slipped into the car.
 Ut goes for me, too," Jimmy had answered, and his eyes were smiling in the darkness. More fun than it used to be, honey?"
 "oh, much more!" She laughed softly. We've weathered 8 storm. Funny, isn't it. how much safer 1t makes people feel after. they have come through something to- gether?'
 "There won't be any more storms" he answered. "At least not on my part of the ocean. Of course I may have to put on a divers suit and rescue you, but 1 give you warning, young lady won't let you go again!"
 "Oh Jimmy, you're a darling" odd how Q woman could forget the things she didn't want to re- member, Grace unused. Could put them behind her. Yet she had thought that she could never love Jimmy again as she had loved him, never could feel the old gay in- ! timacy.' He had wanted to leave her for another woman. Had ask l eQ HST IOT q uttOTCGs [AHu ud0 come back to her. If man loved a woman, really loved her. did he always come back - sometime ? And how was woman to know? Jimmy had returned. But he was ljust Jimmy. Men might not all play his rules, feel his reaction. |. TWO cents for your thoughts. Grace. I'll bid high." he inter- rupted.
 q was just being glad you're here"
 He reached over and pulled her hand over to the wheel and held 1t under his.
 "I was just thinking what cad I'd been, too"
 But Jimmy darling. wasn't thinking that! And here's the restaurant"
 The steaks were thick and juicy and the rolls were crisp. No one talked much as they ate. When they finished Harry smiled at Cor rinne.
 Ut wasn't my disposition that made me moody in the car, Cor rinne. It was my stomach. I need ed food" he said.
 "Of course" She gave him a bright methodical smile. But she wasn't gayer. T have a funny sinking feeling that Nancy won't ever be back" she repeated.
