shoulder. Once she wiped at her
glasses, so he took them off for
her and carefully cleansed them
with a silk handkerchief that he
carried for his own. When he was
done, she did not take them back
as proffered, but lifted her face, ex-
pecting him to put them on her.
Her eyes were closed then, and
her lips pursed eve so slightly and
invitingly.
For a long second or two he
paused there. The young man felt
a quick, delightful sense of alarm.
His blood raced, and he swallowed
hard in an effort at control. He
wondered why his bugaboo of shy
ness should strike him thus unex'
pectedly. A moment ago he hao
been thoroughly at ease, happy in
the knowledge of fellowship and Of
the comradely playing with Bill.
and Gayle earlier this morning.
Now, though, this short dainty little
person here in a dim library aisle
was somehow overwhelming him,
Trembling a bit, he slipped he1
glasses n He noted, to his grea'
surprise, that they changed h e
completely. They gave her a look
as of another person. She was per
haps prettier-in a physical way
without them; and yet he somehoV
liked her better with them on.
He was gentle about it, and when
he took his hands down she sud
denly opened her eyes again and
smiled widely in thanks. The smile
further disturbed him. The little
dimple played. Exquisite teeth
shone brightly, and in his close
ness to her here he could even see
the delicate way she moistened her
lips an dgave life to them.
In the narrow aisle there was nc
table, no chairs. But there was a
little four-step slanting stool, the
kind sometimes used in kitchens.
It served to stand on when one
wanted books off the high shelves.
Tempe was leaning now against it.
"You have such a melodious
voice, Jeremy" said she, still

Tempe walked away from him
She went a few feet and stopped,
her back turned toward him. Bu1
he still did not interrupt his line
of thinking and talking, still
caught no realization of tactless'
ness in his speech. In truth, ne
didn't know much about Tempe
He knew she was very pretty. He
knew she could recite a lot of cute
little rhymes and that she had
definite sparkle to her personality
in a way that the other girls al
The Oaks didn't show. But he knew
nothing about her personality in the
deeper sense. Nor did he, for thai
matter, know much about how to
talk with any girl.
Tempe took a deep breath or two
and came back near to him.
"I'm SO glad you like our Ameri-
lean culture, Jeremy" she said,
smiling again now. "The-White
Americans. 1, too, love to read. ]
could sit in my home forever with
just a good book-and a man who
loved me, Jeremy"
She ended on a wistful note, gaz'
ing out of the window. She sighed
and turned to the shelves again,
'Show me some more of your ia
vorites, won't you, please? I know
I shall like everything you do p"
She whispered it, smiling sweetly.
The whispering, and the almost
tangible coziness and intimacy in
the narrow book aisle subtly drew
them nearer and nearer together
in spirit. For a half hour he took
down his books and exhibited them

reading passages with her over his

The annual tournament at Rich

each year, but more important, the
caliber of play at Richmond has
stepped up to equal that in any part
of the country. This year Richmond
had two players who participated in
the Masters Individual tournament
Mrs. j. E. Folline and DR.. Arthur
Salasky. In today's hand we find
Mrs. Folline looking ahead to pro-
tect her contract against a bad
break.
The opening bid Of one club was
not psychic, but Is one used by
many players to show suficient
opening high card strength, not
necessarily q club suit. North's four
no trump was the Blackwood ccn-
vention, the response OF five hearts
showing two aces.
The opening lead Of the 10 OF
spades was won in dummy with
the ace. Two rounds of trumps,
the king and queen, were cashed,
and the diamond ace played. When
the queen dropped. Mrs. Folline
cashed the king and jack, then
ruffed a diamond with the ace Of
