CHAPTER FORTE-SIX

CHRIS WAS startled by Fa-
bienne's stormy entrance and alarm
spread over her face.
Fabienne las wiping her face
with a towel, tucking her uncurled
hair under her hat, fastening the
collar of her coat under her Chin.
Have you got a pencil ard paper
in your handbag. Chris ?" she asked
eXcitedly.
Chris said she thought she had,
and tumbled it's contents on the
blanket. A roll of banknotes, a
crumpled handkerchief, a ring of
keys, a jeweled compact and a lip
stick fell out. She shook her head.
Can you imagine not having
even a piece of paper and pen
cil?" Fabienne said. She tore a
piece off an old charcoal bag. Give
me your lipstick, Chris"
Silently, Chris handed it over.
"Wh-what are you doing, Fab ?"
II think I've found a way to get
out of this jam without bringing
the police down on our necks. DO
you feel equal to keeping things
going until 1 get back?"
Eyes. What are you going to
do?"
"I'll tell you when it works. IF
it does" Fabienne flung over her
shoulder.
1t was easier walking on the firm
snow, pressed down by the pillow.
She was glad now that Chris
hadn't Weakened her when the pillow
went through. If she'd known it
was there, she would have asked
for a ride on it, gone into the viii
lage and telephoned to Bill.
Only now did she realize the
folly of that. The police would be
watching Ellen and Bill and Nicky,
having surely discovered that they
were her friends, and the first
with whom she would communi-
cate.
Oh, yes, this was far the better
way, if only it would work. 1t was
an inspiration! 1t had to work!
The other way she would have
got Bill into the jam and she would
have regretted that more than any
other thing in this whole night.
mare. What would Bill and Ellen
think Of her now, she wondered
trudging on over the snow in the
erie half-light Of morning. 1t was
only seven o'clock and the worlc
was asleep. Every muscle, every
nerve in her cried out for the com.
fort that she believed Ellen was
enjoying at that moment.
Seven o'clock struck on the
chimes of the grandfather clock ir
Ellen's apartment. She rose from
the divan on which she had beer
keeping watch since midnight be-
side the radio.
She slipped her feet Into fell
slippers and went into the kitchen
to fix breakfast for Bill.
He appeared at the door of Fla
bienne's room, rubbing sleep from
his eyes as she came back. Amy

when. during the last war, they rebuilt
French villages while still under fire.
and went on to rebuild 1866 more
after the war was over. The job IN
cluded the whole Nerdun area. He
presided when they fed 100000
German children a day, after the
Armistice, and when they went back
to feed another million day during
the horrors of the great initiation. They

His friends, he says, are the best
friends in the world; this is great day
to be alive: this years college classes
are the best ever; yesterdays was the
finest of meetings. And he means every
word of it.
Such bubbling exaggerations make
soberer Quakers smile with quiet
amusement. Nevertheless they appre-
ciate that it is this indomitable op-
timism in their leader that has inspired
the Religious Society of Friends again
and again to attempt the impossible -
and achieve it.

Jones's opinion. Don't be weak in

explosion of hate, greed and cruelty
aroused their compassion for the VIC
tins and their pity for the aggressors.
They wanted to proceed at once on
their time-h -honored mission of help and
conciliation. They got little encourage
ment from Washington. Their cables
to the Reich were unanswered.
Then Rufus Jones, with two assocl

lndustrialist. and George Walton, head
of Quaker school, set out upon one of
those hopeless, quixotlc. fantastic mis-
slons which have embellished Quaker
annals for centuries.
They would go to Berlin, seek out
