CHAPTER EIGHT

NOT AS LONG as she lived
would Halle Singleton ever forget
that September dusk. Every shad-
ow in the big drawing room which
was so essentially her mothers
room was etched forever in her
memory. Years later, when she
wanted to recall the happy things
that had happened in that room,
the trimming of Christmas trees of
her childhood, the birthday parties,
the quiet hours when Daddy and
Mummie sat over their card table
and she had worked at her les
sons-these all faded before the
dramatic hour the September day
when Ann Singleton came back
from her visit to Sheila Sherman.
Halle had come In but a few
minutes before from a luncheon
that had lasted late. Her arms, as
always these days, were filled with
packages wrapped in tissue and
white ribbon.
Dad helped her out Of the car,
carrying the packages In for her.
where's Mummie 2" she asked,
with the thread of excitement
pitching her voice into . soprano
song. ''Wait until she sees the d.
vine things I got today. Oh, Dad,
one more thing and well have to
put an extra room on the house!
My room is full of iingeries. My
wedding dress 70 :"
And at that moment, Ann stood
In the doorway. The shadows hid
the sadness that struggled with de-
termination In her eyes, but they
made the quiet seem more quiet for
her words:
Il forbid this marriage"
Unable 70 believe her ears, Hal

But AIMS glance was not for

what suspected about Eric
Adams, Halle. II you know II, you
have been unfair to your father and
me. There is a reason why you
should not-and will not-marry
him. Tomorrow we win announce
that the engagement has been
terminated by mutual consent"
Halle stood straight and still.
But 1t hasn't been, Mummie. I
know what you know, but It
doesn't change things. know about
Mss Sherman, all about her. Eric

War games have been held in
Syria's mountains, the concluding
stages of which were observed : by
Gen. Auchinleck. In Cyprus, Gen.
Auchinleck went over what was
learned in Crete, particularly as
regards airdromes, which in Crete
turned out to be the weakness of
that islands defense.
British officials here state that the
Cyprus defenses have been greatly
reinforced and strengthened in re-
cent weeks and that many new air.
dromes have been constructed on the
island. 1t is evident that Cyprus is
to become an important pivotal base
of operations for the Royal Air
Force in the Eastern Mediterranean.
Whereas when Crete was attacked
the r. A. F. was constrained to
abandon the islands airdromes, it
appears now that as regards Cyprus
the r. A. F. plans are just the op-
posite, thanks to the increase in
numbers and improved types of
British and American planes ar
irving in the Near East.

Within Planes Range.
The island is within range of
troop-carrying planes based on the
European continent, and the long
nights would afford protection for
a hostile flotilla creeping down past
Greenland to effect a landing in
the north.
American and British officers have
studied these problems and have
made their plans accordingly.
So we'll have these forces done
their work that submarine sinkings
in this part of the Atlantic have
dropped to a new low. One report
has it that not a single merchant
ship has gone down along the north

Great Britain in the past seven

development Of Cyprus as an air
base the navy in the Eastern Med
iterranean will in future be able
to count on substantial air support.
The more airdromes there are in
Cyprus, the more easily will the
R. A. F. be able to transfer itself
from one sphere of operations to
another. At present, neutral Tur-

Floating Convoy to Garry

For Louisiana Comes
DR. the Associated Press.


WITH I'd ARMY ON THE AR
KANSAS LOUISIANA BORDER,
Sept. 6.-The I'd Army reached into
Its bag of tricks again today and
came up with a navy-or at least
she inland equivalent.
After the Red Army had thrown
Its $4,000 men across the Quachita
River in mass movement south
ward toward the withdrawing Blues,
no attempt was made by the 5th
and 9Th Divisions, which had con-
structed the pontoon crossings, to
take them up.
Instead, the I'd Army brought
up the 43d Engineers Regiment,
designated as special troops, to dis
mantle the bridges and convert
them into fleet of barges. This
floating convoy was assigned to
take essential equipment on 200
mile trip down the Quachita to
Columbia, La.
The fleet, powered by outboard
motors, started southwark today.
allowing itself six days for the trip,
which will deliver the equipment
into North Louisiana in time for
the I'd Army's meeting with the
Sd, when it will be needed.
For the great pontoons, weighing
i,400 pounds each, it was a turn
about job, for they carried their
own trucks and Semi-trailers, which
usually haul the bridge equipment
overland. This experimental use of
the river served a double purpose.
for it also relieved congested South
Arkansas highways of the long pom
toon conveys.
The 43d Regiment, assigned to
construct the barges, was activated
at Camp Robinson, Ark, last March
with 112 Army Regulars and 1000
selectees, and has been augmented
by additional selective service men.
