white sport clothes. white hat,
white mustache, eyebrows and
hair. you can't be any more scared
than you were that first day l came
in-the day of the kissing bee he
reminded, by the way" he asked
in a mild but commanding voice,
whats the news about Casanova
CromWell?'
Ylena burst out laughing.
That's the very same thing Scott
Hamilton calls Tate"
For that matter. what's news
about Hamilton ?"
Il haven't seen him since we got
back" She hadn't seen him in much
too long, she realized. LAS for
Tate, he just telephoned me from
| San Francisco about two minutes
before you came. Said he's flying
home tonight and wanted to see
me-" She gave an unpleasant short
laugh. Il don't want to have any
heart-to-heart talks with him."
You probably won't have to-"
Alkire said crisply. There's a
pretty good chance Of keeping an
ardent fellow away from you if
his wife is right by your side-at
any rate, l hope it works.
AS the days passed, Ylena real
lied it was not going to be a per-
manent protection. Naturally Tate
did not come barging into the shop
during the hours he knew his wife
was on duty, but he haunted the
place after hours until Ylcna dared
not go out unless she had a COM
panion-Alkire, the domineering
Barker, or hatched-voiced Rose.
Telephone calls were as bad. When
Ylena ceased answering Tate had
office girls and operators make his
calls, thereby getting the girl to
the telephone for at least Hello
AT least I'm hearing your beau
tiful voice." Tate would rush to say
before she furiously hung up. Or
perhaps at another time-evenings
mainly-he would say nothing. But
Ylena, hearing silence and a breath
against the transmitter, knew 1t
was him.
When Scott Hamilton drove
down one weekend, the girl was
deliriously happy, even though
fish was along. Alkire happened in
at the same time, and there was a
great deal of chatter and foolish
ness.
Alkire invited, Lets all go to
dinner tonight. My treat. 1t will be
a party of congratulation to our
smart Ylena."
Our smart Terry, you mean
the blond girl corrected, Il want
YOU all to know right now, that the
man responsible for my success sits
before you in my best chair, as yet
unpaid for. No! My friends, it is
not a question of brains. It's the
well-knoWn old graft. Terry just
beat the investors over the head.
Very gently, of course"
Scott said, "Only as far down as
the ears, probably
AS everyone laughed, Ylena
knew she was having the same fun
with Scott that she had had when
she first reached La MADEIRA. Rep
artee. Light heartedness. No
strained, almost miserable moods
such as she often had experienced
with Tate. Unless in his arms,
there never had been a great deal
of h~appiness connected with Tate's
company. Still she argued with
herself. When that was such SUI
preme happiness, what did any 9TH
err sort natter
She came 10 with a start. Ter

with his cane.

Back at the table, Ylena missed
Francie and Tate. Instlnctively she
glanced at the Cromwell party,
and there they were Everyone
with the exception of Tate was
wearing stiff, unamused smiles that
actually Were only one step above
a complete snub, but to the restau-
rant audience it appeared to be
congeniality. Not that Tate was
overly polite. He simply had drunk
enough that he was in that stage
of being agreeable toward all. He
had the dazed, g~lassy-eyed look
that he usually had on parties, so
in a way, he looked perfectly nat
ural.
At II, Ylena crossed the short
distance to the other table and said
good night. You take Francie
home" she dictated. then Whirled
and left.
About mid-morning Scott ar
rived, not only with the requested
orange marmalade, but also with
three slices of Virginia ham and
some jelly.

Ylena held it up to the light and
looked through it. Grape, you
Ounce! And beautiful"
II suppose so-why do women
always hold jelly up to the light
and rave?"
For the same reason that men
cuddle a brandy glass and Sniff"
She led the way into the combined
bar and kitchenette. "YOu'u have
to cook it. Rose has gone to
church,"
Scott darided, THAT is nothing
I'd rather cook any day than have
rattlesnake mouth around. Shed
poison me-"
Ylena stopped dead still and said
in a veXed voice, "Scott, you know
perfectly well Rose adores you"
Tt isn't Roses alteration /

know that He slapped the sliced
ham into a frying pan and turned
on the ceiling fan, to draw out the
smoke, IF you never learned TO
cook, Ylena, I'd love you all the
same. But I've promised not to talk
about that, haven't Il" He gave
her a smile that faded into a look
Of such warm intensity that she
could not face it. Swiftly, she put
plates and silver on the circular
counter that ran around the edge
Of the kitchen unit. While they
both worked in silence, the door
opened and Rose came in,
Scott said. "UnWelcome to you,
Rose" She took off her hat. Il

you. Poor KID"
You may not believe It, Rose,
but Francie was crying from happi-
ness. Tate took her home last
night"
Although they said little over the
meal, Ylena knew she was more
cOntented than she had been in
many months, 1t was peace just to
be silent and bask in a rare COM
partnership. Somehow it fitted in
with that hour of beautiful happi-
ness. 1t seemed exactly right that
she should leave SCOTS tender,
teasing company. answer a knock

CHAPTER FORTY-ONE

BARKER, HER face alight with
exaltation, said, THE Ensenada
hotel. l knew it. l knew it. What
did you say when he told you that
you are going to decorate it?'
SAY" Ylena replied. Il didn't
say anything, 1 just sat there IN
the usual attitude of surprise with
my mouth open and my eyes pop
ping out"
Barker slapped the top Of the
desk. "Now, were really getting
somewhere. This is an accomplish
ment that should impress even Mrs.
Vincent. She couldn't call you just
a curtain hanger, after this as
signment. Glory be- she shouted.
Were made"
i've never seen you so excited.
Ylena gave an ~uproarlous laugh,
then abruptly stopped. Francie
was coming through the door,
ready for work. Great heavens, l
had forgotten her. Ylcna thought
with misgiving. But she recovered
quickly and greeted Francie just
as she always had.
Francie responded in the same
manner, and they started to work.
DAYS went on as they had before
that dark girl had como between
Ylena and Tate.
One morning after Ylena had
been home about e week, Francie
answered the telephone, then hand
ed it to Ylcna with the words,
Long distance. san Francisco"
Let Barker take it, Francie.
It's probably about that uphol-
stery material for the sunroom in

"They asked for you
Ylena understood the strange ex-
preston she had caught in the
dark girls tragic eyes when she
answered and heard Tate Crom-
wells voice. While she stood there,
hating herself because the mere
sound of his voice put bands of fire
around her heart. she noticed Fran
cie's dropping shoulders and un-
happy mouth. That pitiful sight
brought her back to her senses
She broke into the flow of words
to which she really had not beer

"Tate, you and I have nothing

Barker gave the blond girl a pat
on the back as she replaced the re-
ceiver. Good girl
Although she said nothing, her
eyes were eloquent as Francie gave
Ylena a clear, straight look. A mo-
ment or two l:ter, she went back
into the factory room. To cry,
Ylena knew, thinking at the same
time, I'D like a luxury of tears
myself"
Instead, she put on a warm
sweater and prepared to meet AL
kire for her first business trip tC

The Pope's Condition

While the condition of Pope Plus XII is not so alarming that universal prayers for his reutrn to good health are demand ed of the faithful, as was the case with his predecessor, still the world watches with concern the Vatican. Of late years more people have come to look with re- spect upon, to regard as authoritative the head of the Roman Catholic church. Ger tainly at this crucial hour when all Europe is torn asunder by armed conflict he is the spear-head of the peace move ment.
 That he feels the weight of this respon- Sibility may be drawn from the reports which say that his. present bodily con- dition has been brought about by sheer mental exhaustion in his endeavor to bring about harmony and order among all nations. He is not merely concerned with the affairs of his church, but with those of all mankind. In such a crisis he needs the support of nation like the United States blessed with so many material and spiritual things.
 One and all should do more than ex- press concern over the disturbing reports from the Vatican. It is enough to learn this to cause us to pray long and fer vently that Pope Plus may regain bodily vigor to continue his crusade for world peace.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-07-23
American Ingenuity

The kind of ingenuity and resource fulness that made this country the best in the world isn't dead yet. A couple of our civilian soldiers" young artillery captain and lieutenant from Tennessee, have what it takes. Faced with short age of sighting equipment for their guns, they didn't sit down in a corner and whimper They went to work with couple of sections of pipe and some mir TOTS, and built their own sight.
 Higher officers who have seen it tested say it's better than the regular equip ment, in fact, one said it was the most effective sight he'd seen in p years of army service. And it can be built for five or six dollars, when the standard sight costs six hundred. Whether their exper- iment will be as revolutionary as it seems probably awaits further testing. But soldiers with that kind of resourcefulness are going to be all right. And SO is an army that lets them experiment.
