She should have brought some re.

came from Europe?"
Bart spoke slowly, IT think it's
rather unfair to judge person so
quickly"
Christie's anger fell from her.
Perhaps it is" she said in a low
tone. She had realize dthat n O
all her anger was directed against
the new girl because of the exhi-
bition. She disliked her because

forced into open championship of
the other girl.
And I couldn't take that, she
thought.
care we crazy?" Bart was
leading her away from the ball
room. This is no way to start our
new year,
''1t's just that everybody was
looking at Tommy as though he
were traitor" Christie said. Her
voice trembled a little.
"Oh, now look here. Aren't yo

swept clear of storm clouds. She
thought, as Bart piloted her to-
ward the Palm Room: 'It's silly
to be this much in love.,.' A look
from Bart could lift her up or drop
her down. Right now she was en-
top of the world. Bart had some
thing to tell her! They had reach
ed the dim, secluded Palm Room;
and Bart had caught her close to
