grass toward Enid.
Enid smiled nervously up at
her. Il hope you don't mind"
LET me see il" the other girl
demanded.
She studied the sketch AFRO
gantly and a frown cleaved the
white smoothness of her fore
head. my nose doesn't turn up
that much" she said coldly.
"Oh, yet it does, Clare" the
girl who had called to her in
sisted.
Il think you have a beauti-
full nose" Enid interposed.
The girl called Clare, stared
at Enid, the lovely blue eyes
like ice. Her manner said plain
ly, who are you to have an
opinion of my nose?" Contempt
uously she dropped the sketch,
and without a word turned on
her heel and went back to her
friends under the sun shade.
Flushing, Enid bent over and
retrieved the sketch, but she
didn't finish it. The enthusiasm
needed for satisfactory work
was gone. She packed her tools
away and went and dressed. She
wouldn't 60 back to the pool,
she thought. That is, not unless
Hank took her.
Her hurt turned to anger as
she. walked home. She had a
strong impulse to tear the sketch
up and throw it away. But when
she took it out and looked at it
something in the face challenged
the artist in her. She found her
self enchanted anew by the clear
cut contours of the face and the
insolent poise of the head.
She wondered if she could
finish it from memory. She sat
down at her easel and began to
work. So absorbed was she in
her effort, that she jumped ner-
vously when the door bell rang.
Impatiently she went to answer
it.
Hank Holiday grinned at her.
Hello. Busy tonight? I've been
called to a little country town
for a consultation. It's a nice
ride. l thought maybe you'd like
to 60 along"
Ends spirits rose like a Their
mometer in the sun. "Of
course" she said.
Hank had caught sight of the
sketch on the easel. He walked
toward it curiously. when did
you do this?" he demanded in
a surprised tone.
To-day. At the pool. Do you
know her, they called her
Clare?"
Know her" He laughed
shortly. Its Clare Adams,
Mothers picked her for my sec
ond wife"
In the silence that followed
Hank Holidays casual an
nouncement, Ends world crash
ed around her. She was surpris-
ed that Hank couldn't hear the
pieces falling.
She's very beautiful"
"Clare's beautiful all right,
+ he conced d carelessly. He
glanced at his watch. Can you
! be ready in about &c minutes?"

SILENT RIDE
NCHAPTER XI

II was IL when Enid awoke
the next morning. She made a
wry face at the bedside clock
and wondered how she would
ever manage to awake at 7 when
she had to go back to work.
But she didn't have to worry
about that, yet. The air Of the
apartment was heavy with heat,
and she lay listless until hunger
forced her up to eat.
Then she dressed, gathered
together her sketching materi-
ais, and headed for the Bath
Club. There was no difficulty
about her getting in; Hank had
arranged for that the night be-
fore.
The locker woman gave her a
check and assigned her to q
dressing booth. Enid changed in
to her bathing suit, put her
clothes in the locker and went
out to the pool.
The place seemed different
somehow in the daylight. Big
bronzed life guards occupied
high chairs. Groups of women
sat at tables under gay beach
umbrellas playing bridge, boys
and girls of high school age
were dancing on the shuttle
board court to the music of a
luke box. No one paid any at
tention to Enid. She felt shy and
out of place.
She put her sketch book and
crayon box down in chair and
walked over to the edge of the
pool. She lifted her arms and
jumped in, holding her breath,
as Hank had taught her to do
the night before. But it wasn't
fun like it had been last night
with him. After couple OF
jumps she gave it up.
She dried herself and moved
out of the sun and began to
sketch a swimmer in the water.
But her attention was soon dis
tracted by a red-headed girl in
a white bathing suit, who had
just joined the group under the
nearest umbrella. Enid couldn't
help staring at her. For the first
time she realized what the
phrase, perfect beauty" might
mean.
Enid had never seen anyone
as beautiful as this girl. Wide
spaced eyes of an incredible
blue, hair the color of a new
penny, worn page-boy style with
the ends curled under against
her white shoulders, a piquant
profile with a tip-tilted nose,
and skin that was unbelievable
Not the pink and white COM
plexion of most redheads, but
waxy and creamy as the petals
of a gardenia.
Enid was fascinated. With sur
reptitious glances she began to
sketch the girl, oblivious of an
audience to her activity until
some one called out from be-
hind her.
"Oh, Clare. She's sketching
you"
The red-headed girl stopped
abruptly in something she was
saying, got up with quick inso-

Mrs. Elizabeth Hopkins met
with a serious accident on Friday
last when she was crossing the
street to a neighbours home and
just before reaching the door
slipped and fell over backwards
down the steps striking on the
cement walk. She was picked up
unconscious and rushed to the
hospital at Mount Clemens
where her condition remains
serious.

so that's why he said he
shouldn't have kissed me-" Enid
thought drearily as she dressed.
They didn't talk rauch on the
way. Traffic was heavy and the
Doctor concentrated on his driv-
ing. Only once he turned TO her,
What's the mater-you're so
quiet?"
She smiled thinly. ITS the
heat, | guess.
He circled the square in the
center of the quiet little farm
in5 town and parked before the
square brick building that bore
above its door the inscription,
General Hospital"
Il won't be long," he prom
ised, getting out of the car, And
then, we'll hunt place to eat. y
Deep in her own unhappy
thoughts, Enid couldn't have
told whether Hank had been
gone a half hour or three when
he came back and swung into
the seat beside her.
His mind was stiH absorbed
in the case he had just left. "A
l0-year-old boy" he explained
Fell out TO hayloft a month
ago and broke his leg. And it is
not healing. / think malnutrition
is back of it,"
He backed the car out from
the curb, and then went on vio-
lently as if arguing it with some
one. Its criminal ignorance.
These farm people have all the
essentials of healthy diet right
at home, milk, eggs, fresh vege-
table and they live on bread and
meat-pork at that"
Ends mind was too crushed
with her secret disappointment
TO take any real interest in what
he was telling her. She made a
lame effort to respond. do you
specialize in diet?"
NO" Hank said shortly. II

at isn't fascinating. No kind of
doctoring is fascinating, and GER
tainly surgery isn't. It's hard
work, dirty, and nauseating. But
it's more interesting than any
thing else on earth, mending
broken bodies. And it makes
you feel as if you were of
some use in the world"
Enid colored under the re-
buff. 1T was stupid thing to
say" she amended humbly. II
i had something else on my
mind" Perhaps it was the rag
gedneSS of her voice that focus
ed his attention.
He gave her a keen glance.
Something is bothering you.
You're not a bit like yourself
tonight. Would it help to tell me
about it,"
No" she said quickly. No
