Sandy declined the invitation
with an apologize gesture indi-
eating his informal attire. He
went up the trail with her to
change his trunks for the comfort
able old tweeds, then parted with
emphatic remarks about seeing her
that evening.
"Tell Grandma I'll be back to see
my two girls tonight" he said as
he made a hasty exit through the
garden. "And many other eve

she flung back at him as he went
swinging through the gate. Look

white suit with the scarlet cape
dripping from her shoulders. The
great palm tree cast weird .shad-
ows upon her figure, but the sun
highlighted her coppery hair and
even from that distance he caught
her radiant smile Of farewell. He

her.

as no one else had, for he sensed
the true character that was an in

handy nonsense with the best of
them, yet she had a fund of COM

her beyond the average-even at
first meeting. What would future
acquaintance bring-an untold
wealth Of happiness, or disillusion-
ment?
Sandy made hurried negotiations
with the auto camp operator, and
unpacked his meager store of
clothing slowly. He wondered if
he was foolishly letting himself in
for another embarrassing expert
ence by staying at La Cresta and
developing the friendship of the
charming Marcia Madden. But as
he remembered her straightfor-

smile, he relaxed.

, off in a mad dash across the fields
to the stables, breathlessly excited
and highly keyed. They took
short cuts across one of the pic
turesque ranches, leaping the fence
with high abandon. On the home
stretch, heading for the rambling
corrs.ls and the make-shift stables,
they let the horses out for one last
gallop. Almost regretfully, they
reached the end of that ride.
They climbed into Sandy's rakish
gray roadster that had carried
them over so many miles of coun-
tryside, and turned down the road
that led to Marcia's home. The
wind whipped her short hair back
from her face, revealing well
shaped ears and calling attention
to the clean-cut profile.
"You know, you're almost beau
tiful-at times" he told her.
81 hope you'll still think so, when
my chin has slipped down to my
chest" she laughed.
Ten minutes later they shrieked
to a stop in front of the little
house where Marcia was living
with her grandmother. Before
they'd had time to get out Of the
car, Mrs. Madden hurried out Of
the house.
ooh, Marcia" she called, I'm so
glad you've come. Los Angeles
has been calling you long distance
all afternoon. I think it was that
awful Mr.. Zimmerman. He prob
ably wants to make you cut short
your vacation. Shall I tell the
operator you're still out next time
she calls?
Sandy looked at Marcia in
amazement when he heard her tell
her grandmother that she would
call the operator herself.
But, aren't you forgetting
something ?" he asked. and cold
fog of fear seemed to settle around
him. That the slightest hint Of
business should deter her for q
minute from telling their news to
Mrs. Madden shocked him immeas-
urably. He saw his dream castle
crumbling before him, just as sure
ly as if it had been built of the
golden sands where he and Marcia
met =. and then kicked aside by
her prancing feet.
Marcia, dear" ne pleaded.
''Not now. Forget the Office for
now, and let's tell Grandma"
"You tell her, Sandy boy. I'll put
in the call and be right back. It
might be important"
The little old lady was puzzled
at the undercurrent OF emotion she
sensed on Sandy's part, and as the
girl dashed into the house she
turned to him. ''Have a quarrel,
lad?"
NO." he muttered, you'd never
guess that we'd just become-en-
gagged, would you?" There was
bitterness and hurt, too, in his
voice.

eff it's like all the plays I've ever
seen there's sure to be villain,
some MISUNDERSTANDING, and an
assortment of embarrassing and
complicated situations. Are you
counting on those in OUR little
act ?" she chided him, humorously
and yet half seriously.

dozen villains, or few bad bumps

the happy climax. And they lived

most important line in this in

then got up and began to pace
restlessly up and down before her.
Lets hop in the car and dash
down to Mexico now, this minute!
I can't waste a minute of you,
Marcia. Are you game? wiz you
be married right away-?"
Marcia shook her head exasper-
atingly. Like most women, she
wanted time to think and to plan
A wedding, a trousseau, a few
friends to share her happiness.
"Silly," she said, runpling his
blonde hair with her very brown
hand. "You know we can't do
that. There are reasons"
DON'T tell me there's another
man in the background! I'm a
jealous fellow and I'll shoot him
dead" he warned her with mock
ferocity. Marcia was to -emem-

Sandy stalked off in search OF
the horses, and returned hot and
| triumphant a few minutes later
leading them over to Marcia. She
stood against the tree and was
staring at the fallen log where they
had been sitting, at the twisted cy-
press trees and the wind-swept
promontory where they had adj
mitted their mutual love. Like an
artist, she was sketching these de-
tails in her mind so that they would
always be associated with the hap
piness of this day.
"This must be the top of the
world" she remarked, seriously.
"It's just the beginning, my
DEAR" Sandy answered. "From
here we go onward and upward, to

Joy. But first we must go down.

With the man leading, they picked
their way down the trail that occa-
sionally skirted the edge of the
cliff, and commanded a glorious
view of the countryside and the
never ending sea.

CHAPTER S

pendence of advertising and the
chance for individual thinking that
it Offers" Marcia told Sandy. "You
seem to be pioneers of ideas when
you are working out details of an
advertising campaign. Always
searching for the new, leading the
way. A catch phrase, tricky
idea, anything to make people
wake up to something they should
know. It keeps you mentally eX-
hilarated, on your toes every min
ute"
"Ah, we have an idealist to con-
tend with. Of course, that's one
side of it. But how about the the
DRY that your job so Otter is to
make people want something they
really don't need, or can't afford.
What of that?" Sandy was teas
ing her, yet not a little interested
to see how the girl would take
sides on this controversial problem.
eff people were satisfied with
what they had, there'd be no
progress" she countered sensibly.
II don't think advertising should
stir up unreasonable or unneces-
sary desires. . But it is a RESPONSE

the new things, educate them up
to wanting them and using them.

reason enough, you'll work harder.
It's sort Of stimulus to reach the
top of the ladder"
Sounds like squirrel cage to
me. Goes round and round and
never gets anywhere. Sort of the
m r e-y u-h a e-the-more-you-
want idea," Sandy was deliberately
trying to annoy her. Then he went
on, sadly: Eyes, my lady, I'm
afraid you would be one of these
whip-cracking wives, always goad-
ing your poor man into new ex-
penditures. I can see him now,
with his nose at the grindstone."
"Can you see his face, old seer"
she asked with mock solemnity.
I've always wanted to know just
who my fate would be-"
mo, nothing except that he's old
and gray-from overwork, no
doubt" he laughed. But don't let
me fuss you. Honestly, you're
right, you know. There is chance
to do lot of good through adver-
Using. Make life easier anu safer
by stirring up a lot of justifable
wants. Keep your dreams, my
girl, keep your head in the stars!"
"And your nose to the grind
stone!-or, mean my husbands"
she corrected herself with an en-
barrassed glance at Sandy.

up quickly. Nov, what I'd sug-

cut short, I'm afraid-and I never
did get around to mine"
So the talk became general
again, but the brief skirmish had
awakened real aWareness of each
other. Easy does it, old man."
Sandy admonished himself in a
monotone, as he followed Marcia
down the jagged trail to the sand
q few moments later. Diving neat
ly and almost simultaneously be-
meath wave, they struck out
lazily to swim in the protected
cove. AS usual, the steady pull
was both relaxing and refreshing.

WTASHlNGTON.-A m vt h i al
w two and a half billion dollar
armament program for the United
States next year is the subject OF
WaShington'S most persistent re-
cent rumor.
There are several versions Of
the tale, all Of which insist that
Roosevelt whispered 10 this man
or that one that an armament
boom was his rabbit-in-th e-hat
for curing the present business
recession"
The facts are that the President
is a big navy" man, that he al
ready has decided on a policy Of
having an American navy second
TO none, that he would like to
build up the navy rapidly and
probably would try TO do just that
if there were no deterring factors.
But he and like-minded men in
the administrator realize that the
American people won't support a
huge naval program unless they
feel there's imminent danger oil
war.
And the immediate plans for a
"shot in the arm" for business are
confined to proposals for stimulat-
ing a private housing boom. .
The President himself doesn't
believe there is going to be a
big war in Europe, at least not IN
the near future. But he has urged
Americans not to imagine that the
western hemisphere can escape in
any worldwide confiagration.
Meanwhile, America can't afford
TO take chances, in his view, be-
cause no one really can tell what's
going to happen in the interna-
tional field. F. D. X. and many
