The QueIlertons
WITH a gay gesture Of fare
w well Pam was of, running
lightly over the sand toward the
wall on Duval Street where she
had left her bicycle. She mounted
her wheel and rode away, an
noyed with herself. She was
breaking discipline.
She had made il rule never to
hobnob with the idle and some
times reckless sons Of the rich
who anchored their yachts in the
beautiful water eff Key West in
winter and spent the long sunny
afternoons tanning on the beach,
the evenings dancing and party
ing at Casa Marina or on their
boats, and the lovely, fresh morn
ings sleeping.
Pam had known too many town
girls who had played around with
sleek winter men, lived gaily for
a week, a month or a winter,
learning to do things only wealth
could do-and then waited hope
fully through the long, damp sum-
mer for a letter or message that
never came. She had seen those
girls verify shrivel, as wearying
flowers and foliage did with the
last warm days.
Not for her. thought Pam. Not
for her, those weeks Of tense
waiting When she saw Jerry
Winthrope next she would look
past him as If she had never seen
him before.
She would keep the eyes he had
called French marigolds cool and
the lips he had called hibiscus
unsmiIing. Winter men were not
for her.
Pam was glad to return to the
restful cheer Of the big house on
Division Street with its sense OF
routine and simple, sincere living.
It gave ,Ier feeling of security,
drew her back into he pleasant
and familiar safety Of her own
orbit.
Il was nice to see old Juan
working IN the garden as usual;
to hear the gentle rustic Of Melita
in the kitchen. Nice to see her
own work laid out as usual on
the big table in the room that had
been her fathers study; good to
know that she had been able to
keep the lovely old house on Di-
vision Street, set well back in its
trim lawns, and behind its planta-
ton Of Spanish lines, Royal Pom
ciana, cocoanut and Royal palms.
The trees had been planted by
her ancestors and grown 20 mag
nificent size, spreading their
branches around the house like
tender, sheltering arms. And
there was the croton hedge at
the back of the garden-a veri-
table Persian tapestry of color.

first one on the day she had been
carried over the threshold and
