She was right. There was no

Claire did, and Paul pushed. But
nothing happened. That is, nothing
happened but that The spinning

I'm afraid We're stuck-for good"
you mean we've got to sit here

NO" Paul replied. He came
around to the a and looked in.
It's not far to Dian Weston's
farmhouse, is it,"
"Oh, no-only about a mile down
this awful road-that's all"
"Shall we run for it before it
rains any harder?" Paul suggested.
TN wrap the automobile robe

like"
"Anything's better than sitting

They struck out, Claire running
along beside Paul at first, but later
permitting him to carry her. The
thunder rolled, the lightning in
creased, the rain grew more menace
ing, and the justice of the peace
seemed a long. long way off.
"Now," said Claire. half sobbing.

PAUL" SAID Claire. as the
elopement progressed.
yes. darling!'
is there really any need OF
rushing things so?'
"Yes-there iS-detinltely.'
"But-Why?
Il don't intend giving you a
chance to change your mind again
nor risk another quarrel thatll
send me off miles away from YOU
I'VE could have a few days OF
fun in town-going to parties and
things-and then get married."
Nothing doing! Besides, as
told YOU, l have only a weeks va
cation, and l want to marry you
tonight and make that week a
honeymoon
Claire patted Paul's hand,
You're sweet, Paul" she said. And
after a moments thought she add
ed, ITS certainly weird the way
things happen, Imagine, me all set
to marry Bill Rollins, ana go back
to New York to live in his pent-
house studio-and then your COM
ing home"
I'm darned glad arrived when
did" said Paul. I'm claiming you
for my own, darling, just as you
ARE my own-for always and tor
ever. Right?"
Yes, Paul" said Claire. Tell me
about this place in the West Indies
where you live-and where you'll
take me-"
It's sort of wild at the moment
Paul replied. But some nice fel-
lows and their wives are settling
there, building little bungalows to
live If while the Army bases are
being completed. Sort of primitive,
In a way-but you'll learn to like it.
Bridge parties out on porches-not
much dancing as yet-but lots of
out-of-doors; and the excitement Of
seeing buildings and docks spring

| Claire said nothing for q time,
She sat there thinking. A
penthouse studio in New York, ter
races overlooking the East river,
| color, life-and Bill Rollins. That
and a quickly constructed bunga-
low in a primitive setting, lots of
/ young wives Of engineers, and not
much dancing~and Paul Peters.
Something Of a contrast, and yet
she had finally chosen the bunga-
low and not the studio. She hoped
| she hadn't made a mistake. She
studied Paul's profile, remembered
his exciting love making, his en-
thusiasms, his strong, %caressing
hands. No, she hadn't made a mis-
take-not when Paul went with the
bungalow.
"Oh!" she cried suddenly. Il felt
a drop of rain. And just look at
that cloud"
Looks like we're In for one of
Ardendale's famous cloudbursts,"
