Best Love

continued FROM rage clAt
arms and pressed him close to her
soft breast.
oh, my dear" she breathed.
MY very dear"
The next moment she was wip-
ing his eyes with her little pink
handkerchief, he was laughing and
ashamed.
Funny what a week in bed can
do to a guy he said huskily.
Puts him right back in the
nursery class"
Naturally a week of pain gets
one down." she returned, helping
him out.
He looked at her thoughtfully,
half smiling
Your lsshes are stuck in little
points" he said wonderingly.
Your eyes are all shiny"
THE better to dazzle you my
good man." she returned lightly.
Nurses came in. too bright, too

wheeled a cart into the room.
They tucked a blanket around
Larry and lifted him to the cart
Something screamed in Kay.
Primitive passion scorched her
with its flame.
He was her man. They were
taking him away.
Bye. Kay" he said and
grinned. Don't wait up for me-
She did not move. She couldn't
have been responsible for her ac-
tons had she moved.
They trundled him to the dor.
I'm leave light in the win
dow" she heard herself say.
An instant later she was at the
door, eyes straining after Larry.
Pink walked solidly beside the
cart.
When he was out of sight Kay
went to the wash room and just
plainly bawled.
There was no other way to
describe her abandoned grief.
After while she stopped. wiped
her drowned eyes, blew her nose
and braced up.
Larry was brought back to his
room after an agonizing wait.
He was conscious, the anesthetic
had been spinal, and he smiled at
Kay before closing his tired eyes.
The operation had been entirely
successful
The doctor beamed jovially and
departed.
After that Larry began to mend.
One day he was up in wheel
chair and Kay pushed him to the
solarium.
Afterward they played pitch.
While they were playing Brenda
came and coldly sent Kay home to
finish her work.
Soon he was walking with two
crutches, then one crutch. at last
he took a hating step with no
crutch at all.
He laughed giddily and had to
wipe beads of perspiration from
his forehead.
1t was that day he begged
Brenda to marry him before he
left the hospital.
Kay heard of it from both Of
them and pieced the story together.
Larry said BY rights I should
have been married man for five
weeks.
Il feel like a ship without a
crew or-or a saw without teeth,
if you know what l mean"
You express yourself beauti-
fully Brenda returned, glancing
at her reflection In the mirror.
Come here, darling"
Brenda went to the bed
Cant we be married here"
catching her hand. IF you were
my wife"
Brenda pouted. But I want a
wedding and anyway / start new
picture tomorrow.
He dropped her hand. A grim
expression settled around his very
young mouth.
Telling Kay about it he readily
explained Brenda's attitude.
1t was idiotic of me to think OF
such thing.
No girl wants to marry a dub
when he's down"
And Brenda, telling Kay, twisted
her lips derisively.
Imagine Brenda Brent being
married in hospital
Ridiculous. Anyway, how do l
know he isn't going TO be q
cripple ?'

WARDHA, India, Sept. 16.-Mo-
handas K. Gandhi appealed to the

he called honest action to i'm
plement the declarations Of faith
in democracy made on the eve
of the war"
The Indian nationalist leader
hinted that the degree OF cooper
alton by India with Great Britain
in the war might depend on the
answer to his appeal.
"The recognition of India"
Gandhi declared, land for that
matter, of all those who are under
the British crown as free and
independent nations seems to me to
be natural corollary of the Brit
ish profession as to democracy 49,
ITO put it still more plainly
all that is required is honest ac-
ton to implement the declarations
of faith in democracy made on
the eve of the war and still being
repeated from British platforms

willing India dragged into the war
or willing ally cooperating with
her in the prosecution Of the de-
