She slowly opened her eyes.

Sne SLOWLY opened ncf cyco.
She's coming to now" she could
hear someone say. The room was
spinning, too, then it slowly focused
and someone tall was bending over
her. Surely 1t was Jake. But 1t
couldn't be. joke was never there
any more.
She stirred. Us 1t all over ?" she
asked dimly.
IAN over, Mrs. Kerr, and you
have a beautiful little daughter"
A quick, efficient voice. A nurse.
"A girl?" She couldn't believe IL
1T was supposed to be a boy, JON
athan Kerr, Jr. Oh, 1t must be q
boy" She began to cry weakly.
She's just like you, the lowell
est little thing you ever laid eyes
on" someone said proudly. 1t must
be Jake.
I'm bring the baby In" The Eff
Acient voice again. Kay closed her
eyes.
There were footsteps, rubber
soled hospital ones. The sound Of
something rolling on wheels. The
wheels went over the door sill with
little thump.
Here she is, Mrs. Kerr" Kay
opened her eyes. There was the tin
lest little face in front Of her, red
with its mouth puckered up to cry,
its eyes squirting and little black
fuzz on its misshapen head.
"Oh, she is beautiful" Kay said.
And she's 20 strong" KAY
reused herself. Look what a little
brute she is" The baby was clutch
ing Jake's long finger in her tiny
hand, and Jake looked ecstatic.
Kay sighed with relief. There
must be more to this business Of
being a parent than she had real
lied. But what was Cake doing
here? She felt sleepy. but she had
to talk to him.
Jake" she whispered. He leaned
over and put his cheek against
hers. You foolish darling he said
softly. why on earth didn't you
tell me?"
You weren't very keen about
the idea"
You have me all wrong. Why,
this Is the most exciting thing I've
ever known" She smiled; men real
ly were wonderful.
How did you nnd out ," she
asked. She was tired.
I'll tell you the whole story
later, when you've had a good sleep.
But David was the one who no
ticed 1t. He went to see DR.. Smith
because he couldn't understand
how anyone so seriously sick could
be allowed to have a child. This
awful illness Of yours was a new
one 10 DR.. Smith-and when he told
me this morning, I saw the whole
picture-why you'd invented the ILL.,
ness, given up work-all you've
sacrificed for me. I was coming
back anyway, but you Just don't
know how I'll always adore you for
all you've done
He let his head drop on her Shout
der. II felt good and right there.
Darling, sweet darling, this time
we're together for good. We've
learned now where contentment
lies" He kissed her cheek. She was
almost asleep.
Hurry up and get well. The
house looks lovely now. Het and !

talk TO anyone now. She did q lot
Of the last-minute work in her
apartment, keeping the telephone
wires busy and Leland and Miss
Dard on the run.
A week before the exhibition she
inadvertently leaned against Dav-
ids desk one afternoon. She failed
to notice his look of amazement.
He watched her closely all week,
but she was wary and sat whenever
anyone was around. Then a day be-
fore the exhibition he strolled into
her Office and she was standing by
the window. She hastily beat a re-
treat to her desk, but he had long
enough to make certain
The exhibition opened with a
fanfare. Everyone was there but
Kay. The night before she had been
very Ill. DR.. Smith, called over in
the middle Of the night, had been
worried and advised the utmost
caution. You'll practically have to
stay in bed from now on" he
warned her. Don't take any risks
at this point"
Those last two weeks seemed like
forever. She was at a loose end for
the first time in years. She had
nothing to do, nothing to look for
ward to. The baby, of course, but
she didn't look forward to that
much. She had made no plans about
what shed do, where she'd go. She
felt incapable of thought, Of action.
She wouldn't even see anyone.
She went TO the hospital on the
third of October. She left home
about midnight, and when the sun
rose over the river she still was
waiting for the baby to be born.
The thought Of the pain had never
bothered her; the pain didn't mat
ter much now. She had had pills,
and it was bearable.
One of the nurses had said.
When it's all over you'll have a
nice little baby" She supposed ii
was a trite remark, but it buoyed
her.
But she wanted Jake, oh, Lord,
how she wanted Jake. The view
from her window was lovely, the
broad sweep of the Hudson and the
majestic curve OF the George Wash
ington bridge. She felt very alive to
the beauty Of so many things in
the world. She ionged with a sud-
den deep violent longing for their
house IN the country. Her heart
cried out for Jake.
The pains got worse and more
frequent All she was conscious of
was her pain and her longing for
Jake. She was wheeled into the de-
livery room. DR.. Smith looked
strange with his hair bound in a
white cap, his nose and mouth hid
den by a mask. only his eyes star
ing at her. The room was full of
nurses faces that swan in and out
OF view. She felt lonely and fright
ened. BY now the pam was excru-
ciating.
DR.. Smith nodded his head. A
gauze cone was passed up and down
before her nose. The pain was go
ing away; she felt drowsy.
When she came to she thought
she must still be dreaming. The
dream had been such a nice one.
she and Jake were wandering in a
field and they were laughing. The
sky was so blue, Jake's hair all
bleached and his skin Drowned.
Now here was Jake again, but the
sky vas white and her head spin
ming a little.

that she didn't want either him or
