 q think we'd better get back to discussing the c1eaning!"
 "Yes'm," Mrs. Kelly said, de- Hated.
 I'd like you to come once a day, just to let the dog out, and feed him"
 "I'd have to charge by the hour"
 Long after Mrs. Kelly had gone, Martha stood there in the foyer, motionless. Everybody, everybody had the same idea! How stupid she had been! How blind! But as long as it wasn't true-as long as she wouldn't go out alone with Paul again-it didn't matter.
 Bill was the only one who counted. He had never dreamed of such a thing. She held to that, desperately. That Bill had trusted her, that he'd trusted Paul. He knew them both more intimately and with more understanding than anyone else on earth. She seemed to hear again his voice as he said at the station, Take care of her, Paul.
 Suddenly she wanted to hear his voice again. She went to the phone. Operator, I'd like to speak to MT. William Marshall at Camp McAllister, please. No, no one else will do."
 It seemed to take an awfully long time to get him. Perhaps they had to look all over the camp. She wondered what the men did, evenings. Bill had made light reference to a joker game in one of his letters.
 At long last, his voice came.
 'Bill!" she cried. "Oh, Bill, Is it really you?"
 Martha? Darling, what's the matter, why did you call, Is any, thing wrong?"
 How dear his voice wasl ''No, stupid! I just wanted to talk to you. How are you?"
 I'm fine, sweet. How are you?"
 ''Why didn't you call me when asked you to?"
 Almost, she could see the sheep ish grin as he said, '"Ten you the truth, I just didn't have the 
 You could have reversed the charges, nut"

 "Oh, darling, it's so good to hear you! Tell me, do you like being in the Army?"
 Tt isn't bad. My feet hurt all the time. The chow's good. Tell me about you. Missing me?"
 Terribly. Always. Oh, dar- ling ." She mustn't cry.

. STORIES
 IN STAMPS
Pitcoirn Island Todoy Is 'Pocific Paradise

s~ 0~atsS &At0\StoV -"'' THE happy isolation mutineers A of the Bounty sought but did not find on Pitcairn Island belongs to their descendants today. The Islanders live pleasant, pious, hard-working life, far removed from the strife of the rest of the world.
 A view of the rocky shore is shown on the stamp above, with Fletcher Christian, leader of the famous Bounty mutiny, pictured at left.
 Pitcairn is a tiny two-mile- square dot in the south Pacific be- tween Australia and South Amer ica, about $500 miles west of Chile. War has halted the frequent visits of passing ships; postal service is irregular.
 The religious regime estab- lished by John Adams persists among the 200 descendants of mutineers. There are no taxes, but every man is required to work seven days a year on public proj- ects. Education is compulsory.
 The islanders have an abund- ance of food. Agriculture and fishing are the principal occupa- tions. There are no cows, pigs or horses on Pitcairn.
 Many descendants of the mu- tineers now live on NGs.x Is- land, to which they transferred in 1859 when Pitcairn's population became too numerous.

 She was talking very rapidly. q even took the cleaning of Mrs Kelly's hands. She just comes in to feed Butch and let him out Then she raced on, 'Bill, I'd like to drive up to camp this weekend Is it all right? Are you allowed visitors yetP"
 Sure, we're allowed visitors. Every Sunday the camps over run with them. But it's an awfully long drive. Especially in Peg"
