CHAPTER "

Dana, watching the re- treating figure of her half sister, came to one of her swift, intuitive decisions. She's briary. Every time you reach out toward her, you get pricked. But it isn't the kind of sting a sneaky person would give you. It's a fortnight kind you don't mind so much. In spite of the fact that she dislikes me, I'm sure I'm going to like her"
 Dana went into the house.
 That you, Nancy2"
 "1t's Dana," the girl replied, her heart beating a little faster at the sound of her grandmother's voice. She wondered if she would ever be- come accustomed to the harsh, controlled tones and mirthless dark eyes.
 T wanted Nancy to do the mar keting for me-"
 "She hasn't had time to get very far" Dana said. Couldn't I take the car and pick her up? Then we could market together"
 She spoke eagerly. It was lone- ly sitting about the old house with nothing to do. Marketing would be a diversion.
 "Humph. Drive2"
 "Yes. Ever since I was little girl"
 Here's the car key. Wait-I'll write out list" A few minutes later Dana was driving down the long street un- der a canopy of branching elms and oaks.
 The car was a dilapidated old model, but it ran. And it was nice to be rattling along on nice, sum- ny day. Occasionally a pedestrian turned and followed the car with curious eyes.
 "It's because I'm a stranger" {" Dana decided. Evidently, every body in the town knew everybody else. How different from the cos mopolitan European cities. Youth fully Dana decided she didn't mind the stares; it added zest to com monplace mission.
 Over the rise of the slope she would probably find Nancy, who was evidently fast walker to have covered so much distance in so short a time.
 But Nancy was not in sight as the car dropped down on the other side.
 Dana stopped the car. Intersect- ing with the street over which she

had come was another of very dif- ferent appearance.
 Smart" was the word Dana used mentally. These homes evil dently belonged to the wealthiest families of the town. The one on the corner, far back among its green acres, was a reproduction of an imposing English manor house. Ivy clung thickly to the brick walls and spiralled about its chimneys.
 Dana turned the nose of the car in this direction. She would drive for some distance on this attrac- tive thoroughfa-e and if she failed to see Nancy she would return home.
 She drove rapidly, the road un- winding like a long white ribbon, and handsome homes marching past in picturesque review. The one she was passing now was an enormous structure, set high on a hill several hundred yards away. Its turreted tops gleamed brightly under the glare of the sun. A veritable woodland of trees and towering shrubs had been rudely parted in the center of the grounds, permitting those passing by to glimpse the immense white stone residence.
 But Dana was destined not to pass. There was an ominous eX- plosion, the car swerved suddenly, and came to a violent stop.
 "Darn!" Dana exclaimed. "Now, I'm in for it." She was thinking of her grandmother, who would be waiting for her groceries and would never understand why Dana had taken the prolonged drive which had ended in a puncture.
 She looked about anxiously. No help in sight. ,.....,.--.. 4..-.. From her vantage position, through tall spires of iron Dana had clear view of the house, and it pleased her not at all. "A cost ly imitation of an English castle" she decided. Or was it French? But there was none of an old cas- ties charm. It was so obviously new and expensive; just 8 vulgar display of wealth.
 A car stopped nearby and 8

you on to town? We can buy the groceries while the car is being fixed and deliver them at your grandmotheris door,"
 "A fine ideal" Dana said. with out hesitation. She had accepted the young man who knew her grandmother and her half-sister at face value. He was a nice boy. And, besides being perfectly tai lored, he was also handsome.
 During his absence, Dana studied the house and ground again and found more imperfections- series of classic marble figures springing up over the grounds and a fountain in front of the colossal pile of stone.
 Ronald Moore had returned. So suddenly and noiselessly had his car slipped through the gates that he saw the slight frown on Dana's intent young face.
 He helped her into his car. Like it?" he queried, motioning toward the home on the hill.
 "No," Dana said, q don't. Some how the grounds and the house don't fit. And I think it was a shame to clutter up the lawn with the fountain and all that Statuary, p
 q told my father that when he was having the place built" Ron- aid said.
 Dana's face turned crimson. You're joking, aren't you? You don't really live there?"
 Please don't mind. It wasn't a fair question-and I feel the same way about the place. I'm never there any more than I can help"
 "Of course I didn't dream Dana began helplessly.
 "Let's forget it. After all, we're agreed. Some day I will persuade my father to sell the house ano build one that's more home-like."
 Dana sat, uncomfortably aware of her unintentional rudeness, a. the dark blue roadster gathered ur miles and spread them behind.
 It was ridiculous to allow suct an incident to topple her boise ant make her appear silly and stupid I'm sorry," she said. Maybe tn reason I'm critical is that I've nev CT lived in big, handsome homes Only in little places or an ol, house like Grandmother's. Any way, I'm going to forget all abou it."
 Good. Now we can think abou the groceries. Here we are!"
 A half hour later the two, bun. dle-laden and chatting like ole friends, mounted the steps of tht

young man leaped out and came forward.
 Have you sent for help?" he asked.
 Dana liked his directness. Most men would have said, Had a punc- ture?" or something like that. And, of course, the punctured tire was perfectly obvious.
 She smiled. T didn't know ex- actly how to go about it."
 "That should be easily remedied," !" said the stranger. "I1l drive in and telephone for you. It will take sometime to get someone out to do the job. I'd offer to fix the punc- ture, only I'm really dub at any thing like that"
 q wouldn't have you ruin those beautifully creased trousers for worlds" Dana said. "I'd really en- joy the wait, if it weren't for my grandmother's groceries"
 "Your grandmother" There was a surprised infection in his voice.
 My grandmother, Mrs. Cam eron."
 "Nancy,s enthusiastically, didn't know" He broke of, em- barrassed.
 "You didn't know Mrs. Cameron had another granddaughter" Dana supplied.
 "Well, now, it seems to me I did Only thought she was abroad in England or France"
 'T've lived in both places. My father was an artist and we were always moving. I came here from Paris. I'm Dana Westbrook."
 "I'm Ronald Moore"
 The name meant nothing to Dana. She said, I'm awfully glad you came along" Then, as realiza- tion dawned on her, We haven't called a garage yeti"
 Gosh! That's right! What do you say I telephone and then drive

Alaska may not have de- veloped to meet the expectations of the sourdoughs--Lord, I remember that when I was in Seward the old- timers used to claim that in ten years Seward would be the biggest city on the entire Pacific Coast but it certainly has more than trebled my expectations for it-and I was always optimistic about it's future, too
