last night. It's blood money or
something like that" She laughed
with brittle sarcasm and went out
of the Office Immediately, her abb
surd high heels tapping deflantly
along the corridor.
Miss Mills hesitated by Stephens
desk, lingering the bill Janet had
given her. You see," she seemed
to be saying, you see, now?" She
made Stephen feel uncomfortable.
Bewildered as he was Stephen
couldn't help feeling that there was
some terrible reason why Miss
Storm acted the way she did. He
heard the other teachers murmur-
ing among themselves in awed
hushed tones. He heard Larry Car
vels name mentioned. He felt alb
surdly like jumping to his feet and
defending Miss Storm in loud and
angry tones.
Yet she'd been downright rude to
Miss Mills. From all indications so
far she seemed to be nothing but q
spoiled, defiant, rather stupid child,
trying to show off and hurt every
one within reach, and yet he kept
wanting to defend her.
These letters are ready for you
to sign, Mr.. Malone" Miss Mills
said. She put them in front of
him, and he started and then recov-
cred himself guiltily. The others had
all gone without his having noticed,
and there was no one in the Office
but Miss Mills and himself. He
looked up at her, smiling family.
I'm sorry she was rude to you,
Miss Mills" he said slowly.
Who? Oh, you mean Miss

breath sharply. An instant of revul-
sion shook her.
His face was a blur in the dark
ness. "Why not?" he asked sharply
He pulled her toward him again,
but she shrugged away and slipped
inside before he could stop her.
"Goodnight!" Her whisper foated
on the night air and the door closed
and he was alone. He stood there
in the dark for moment scoWlng
before he went back to the car.
Janet had never acted that way
about kiss before. Oh well, wom-
en- were temperamental creatures
anyway. Maybe she was tired after
teaching all day and then standing
around a roulette table half the
night. She was really a good sport,
ready for anything that promised
excitement and fun. Wait until
Steve Malone got wind of her step
ping out to night clubs and joints.
He'd writhe, and there wouldn't be
anything he could do about it. That,
Larry thought smugly, was the ad-
vantage of having big shot for a
father. Carvel Senior was prose-
cutting attorney at the moment and
he had a finger in everything.
Stephen did writhe inwardly, the
very next day.
Several of the teachers were gath
cred in his Office before classes took
up. They were discussing drive
for funds that was being put on for
the benefit of some sort of boys
club in Drillford. Janet Storm came
in just as Miss Mills said, "One
thing certain is that the teachers
will all do their partp They all re-
sponded to Janet Storms cheerful
good morning" and then Miss Mills
said, "At least most of them are in
terested enough in the school and
the community to help out as best
they can"
A heavy uncomfortable silence en-
sued. No one had missed the de-
liberate insinuation in Miss Mills
words, except Stephen, who had
stepped out of the Office for a mo-
ment and had only that instant re-
turned.
Stephen Is Puzzled.
Janet's face famed. She opened
her purse. would $40 help the
noble cause?" she asked Miss Mills.
Her eyes, glancing briefly in Steph-
ems direction, were hard and bright.
Some one gasped at the actual
sight of the $40 bill and even Miss
Mills looked pleasantly astonished.

go ahead" Janet Knocked, take
it: I don't need it. I won it at the
roulette table at the Golden Parrot

Storm" It irritated her to find that
he was still mulling 1t over. "You
see what meant now when I said
she was going to be difhcult." She
smiled triumphantly.
He picked up his desk pen, signed
his name to the top letter absently.
"She just got of on the wrong foot
with us, that's all. I think she has
the idea that we're all critical Of
her."
We'll, perhaps she deserves our
critical attitudes!" Miss Mills said
impatiently. She slammed a paper
weight down on the desk and went
to the window suddenly, and her
shoulders quivered. Stephen stared
In astoniShment.
"Why-Miss Mills"
'T tried to make friends with her.
I-tried to tell her how-well-to
be helpful, and she was only mean
and rude"
"Oh, but Miss Mills-Laura-you
shouldn't take it so hard" Stephen
said, anxiously.
Miss Mills, dabbing at her eyes,
was thinking. "He called me Laura.
That's the first time he ever called
me by my first name" She turned
slowly about and looked at him. Her
angular face softened, and her red
trimmed eyes regarded him tenderly.
"All right, Stephen" she whispered,
"I1l try again. I'll win her yet, make
friends with her."
He looked immeasurably relieved
at her words. That's good idea"
he agreed. "I'll see what can do,
too
There's the club hike to my farm
in October" he remembered aloud.
I'VE always have jolly time, and
it's so informal and so much fun
that she won't be able to help but be
herself. She'll forget about all this
defiance and showing of, and I'll
wager that beneath it she's lovely
person."
Miss Mills mouth dropped as she
returned to her desk, and her eyes
were sullen. Perhaps Miss Storm
would refuse to serve as chaperon
for the club. Or she might refuse
to go to the hike, especially If she
was told that she must go. Miss
Mills face grew cunning as she
thought about it.

lip. Then she shrugged and smiled.
Stephen Malone would be disapprov-
ing and that prissy Miss Mills would
be petrifled at the idea of one of
the teachers going to a gambling
casino. She shrugged angrily at the
small feeling of shame that kept
rising to the surface of her thoughts
as she dressed.
1t was Larry's lucky night and
she had hard time dragging him
away at midnight. You see, dar-
ling" she told him as they started
home, 1--we work to do tomorrow.
I can't sleep until noon like you
can, little playboy."
Its tough, isn't it?" Larry
laughed.
Janet found herself speaking
again of Stephen Malone as they
rode home Maybe it was because
he persisted in her thoughts in spite
of anything she could do. Has
he always lived here, Larry?"
Janet Is Disturbed.
Yeah" Larry's tone was dis
gusted. "We went to school togeth-
er. He was the boy ranger type
even played the piano. Might know
he'd turn out to be a school master" 4"
Has he-has he any family?"
Say" Larry gave her quick
searching look. Aren't you awfully
interested in Steve Malone?"
She shrugged and was thankful
that it was too dim in the car for
Larry to discern the flush that
mounted her cheeks. Don't think
I'm interested in him!" she an
swered scornfully. Hes just as
you say, such a strange specimen,
that I wondered about him."
Hes not married, if that's what
you're fishing for Larry said dryly.
His mother died while he was in
college and outside of her he has
no family that I know of. He lives
in that big white house at the end
of Maple street"
Don't be silly, Larry" she said.
She changed the subject then.
Here you take this $40 I won,
since you loaned me the S. to start
with she said, opening her purse.
Don't be silly yourself" Larry
admonished her. He took her elbow
as she got out of the car and
pressed her arm against him as they
went up the steps of her rooming
house. In the shadow of the door,
way he took her in his arms and
kissed her until she struggled away
from him.
whats the matter? he asked
roughly.
"You shouldn't kiss me-that
way" she stammered, catching her
Evening star., 1940-11-29

: Let me give you a lift" he said
abruptly.
v He was silent the short distance
to her home, and his goodnight was
perfunctory. She stood looking after
his car until it disappeared in the
dusk. Ever since that interview with
Miss Storm today he'd been moody
and unlike himself. 81 won't let
him fall in love with her." she told
herself as she went into the dark
Loneliness of her house. Even if he
won't pay any attention to me, he
Shan't fall in love with a chit like
her. I'll turn them against each
other. I'll do something! Any
fhing!" she resolved fiercely. Her
face was wet with tears of frustra-
Lion and anger.
= Janet, too, was thinking of Ste
plen Malone. She had been ashamed
Today of the things she'd said to him
Rbput teaching. 1t did sort of get
you in a soft spot the way they all
looked at you, SO trustfully, and ad-
fniringly. And they all looked So
so fresh and-well, innocent. She
was impressed by that after only
two days of teaching.
( "And what is getting into you.
Janet Storm" she asked herself
skeptically. The queerest thing of
all was that Stephen Malone's eyes
held that same look. She'd been
disturbed by him more than she
wanted to admit.
' Janet Storm didn't intend to ever
s1et any one disturb her again. One
yiay, when Larry had his final di-
Norce decree, she intended to marry
him. She didn't love him, but that
didn't matter. She had tried love.
. Wishes She Had Told.
z She wished now that she'd told
Stephen Malone today just how
things stood between her and Lar
Try, that when he had his divorce
they'd be married.
She was thinking over all these
things as she dressed for her eve
ming date with Larry. She felt
trifle guilty going again tonight, be-
cause she had papers she should
grade. She told Larry that when he
phoned, and he laughed uproari-
ously and delightedly. Papers to
grade? Janet, aren't you taking this
job too seriously?"
8 "Well-after all, am getting paid
I to teach, and ought to at least
pretend toto"
I Forget it," Larry's voice was
I snasally impatient over the phone.
s"I feel lucky tonight and thought
we might 60 over to the new casino
that's opened out on the State road"
"All right, Larry"
She hung up slowly and bit her
