then, walked slowly back to the
street. Suddenly he stopped and
called:
Joyce! May I talk to YOU
alone-for a moment?"
She walked out to the street, a
street where moonlight was filter

The tall man waiting for her said:
Before 1 go 1 want you to

Not too sudden" The dark
girl smiled. I've loved my music

And I've loved her longer than

Joyce, a bit dazed, turned to
look at Ken. He was smiling,
walking toward the couple on the
porch and congratulating them.
May you always be happy,
Myra!" he said.

And thanks for waking Prof. up.

hope, Myra's father will give

In the week that followed
Joyce played role that was en-
tirely alien to her-that of en-
chantresS. En- d o W ed with the
charm of a Lorelei. she had never
deliberately used those charms to
attract a man. She had never had
to. Men usually needed no prompt
ing to make love to her.
But Ken AinSworth was differ
ent. If sometimes his gray eyes
paid tribute to Joyce'S beauty, he
held his tongue-and held his at
tention to Myra. Often when Myra
was taking her daily music lesson
from Prof. Loring, the quiet, mid
dle-aged maestro of Mapleville.
Joyce would take Ken riding in her
big roadster. One day she limited

To herself Joyce said, Hand

a little harder. a little angrily

the big roadster

big hill and watch the moon come

A half hour later the moon was
lifting from the horizon to the
East. It's silver light shed soft
radiance on Joyce's golden hair.
She leaned contentedly back in the
seat of the parked car and said:
Isn't it glorious, Ken?"

"YeS-you are!" His voice was
suddenly resonant.
Il am?"

her; his lips upon hers in a kiss
that she would never forget.

NO, Ken" she cried. You
mustn't"
Il know I mustn't. I know I'm
a fool" His arms released her.
For moment, jaw set hard, he
sat there looking straight ahead.
Il wish you wouldn't tell Myra
about what cad I've made of
myself Joyce Please don't
tell her!"
Still tingling to that kiss, Joyce
said, You think it might inter
fere with your plans, do you?"
Let's go h m e." he said
brusquely.
What are you crying about?"
he asked her at last.
None of your business" She
flared.
When Joyce and Ken drove up
to the Clark home, Myra was sit
ting on the porch. Close, very
close, beside her sat her m u c
teacher, Prof. Loring.
Joyce was getting out of the car
when her uncle came hurrying
down the porch steps. Lustily he

Joyce drove on out to the Clark
home at the edge of Mapleville. a
nice home shaded by towering
maple trees. But there was little
tWinge of guilt in her heart as she
greeted her cousin, the dark-eyed
frail girl with the crippled ankle.

There was a hopeful, happy
light in those dark eyes smiling at
Joyce But there was also a
