She had a wild look in her eyes.
Not the twinkle of mischief one
would expect, if fun were afoot.
She looked frightened. And
mean, actually mean.

Girley, curiosity mounting.
Peaches went quietly to each end
of the short hall, peered around
the corners. Apparently no one was
near. Then all at once she FASTENED
back and went around behind the
checking counter. She was moving
swiftly now.
"She's starting something's"
Worthingtor whispered to himself.
He grinned In anticipation and
raised up to watch her better.
He thought xtnaybe she might
steal bunch Of the coats and hide
them somewhere in the building.
That would be fun, all right. But
then he remembered that Peaches
had looked wild, and mean. The
thought confused him.
He saw her rummage hastily in
the rack where the girls coats
hung.
She seemed to be looking for a

was removing his own. Moreover,
he had hung up Sara Sues with
especial care. He liked Sara Sue.
He would be eternally grateful to
her for favors rendered.
Whatever could Peaches Pome-

She was snobbish. She had been

| himself, had heard Peaches make
catty remarks, once or twice,
about that. Now she had Sara
Sues gosh!
To his amazement, Peaches be-
gan tearing at the lining of Sara
Sues coat.
On the side, near the hem, she
was opening seam, tearing at it
with her fingers and her finger
nails, and finally using her teeth to
break the threads. And she was
working very fast, almost franti-
cally, keeping sharp lookout4
Worthington, highly curious, felt
miserable lest she discover him in
the shadows. A sense of alarm had
suffused him.
Voices passing up the hall sud-
denly alarmed Peaches. Instantly
she dropped the coat on a chair,
forced nice smile, and sauntered
to the counter. She leaned over,
looked left and right. Seeing no
one, she was treasured. Her smile
vanished. In a flash she was back
at her task, working fast and war
lily. She reminded Worthington of
a bird eating. A bird will spend
one second picking up grass seed,
then. spend four seconds glancing
cautiously around. In a half min
ute, though, she had the seam open
it appeared to be slit three
inches or so long and she dropped
the coat.
Then, surprisingly, Peaches
reached for the diamond bracelet
on her left arm.
It, too, offered some difficulty.
Being extremely valuable (several
thousand dollars, Worthington had
heard) it had positive safety
catch on it. Peaches had to take
her teeth to that, too. She gnawed,
and twisted, and pulled, to get it
free.
She pushed the pretty thing
through the slit in Sara Sues coat.
Then she closed up the slit, maxi
ing it as unobtrustive as she
could. She hung the coat quickly
on the rack where she had found
it, took a deep breath, smiled again
and calmnly sauntered back out
side to the front Of the checking
counter. She leaned one elbow in
dolently on it, as if waiting. Then
she seemed to change her mind,
for she walked down the hall and
disappeared in the big ballroom.
"Gos-s-s-sh!" murmured Fresh
man Guriey, utterly appalled,.

Beneath the clear blue skies;
And then I had to say goodbye
And smile through tear-dimmed

With heart filled with pain.

Perhaps never to meet again.
I remember the times we shared to-

While flowers kissed the dew.

Maybe he remembers them, too.

Memories are very sweet.
