II was a conversation about Mar

other topic that might be the be-

femininely so. in not telling Paul
in exchange about Martin. But

when Paul mentioned his name.
Whatever became of that fellow
who lived in a trailer camp, that
friend of yours and Buffy's'" Paul
asked. 1t was natural enough
question. Karen had wondered why,
having met Marty that night, Paul
never had expressed any further
interest or curiosity in him. Yet it
startled her. maybe due to her con-
science again.

Grimmest OF all was a lifeboat,
now anchored near the city dock.
II was charred and burned, and fun
Of bullet holes. The submarine that
had sunk that freighter had fired
on the men as-they had tried TO row
away. Often one could see big
clouds OF dark smoke, lasting for
hours, on the brim OF the horizon,
meaning that another ship was
sinking slowly TO its deep grave
There was one sinking within few
miles Of shore. a sight that caught
at ones throat and brought the
sting OF tears to the eyes as crowds
gathered for miles to witness that
slow destruction. Much Of its cargo
was saved. but there were men
whose flesh was horribly blackened
from the explosion and the blister
ing oil, whose suffering and cour-
age no one, having seen. could ever
forget.

overrun with boys in khaki.
They're so young these boys,

protested Their bright, young,
eager faces twisted her heart; their
plucky cheer and reckless courage

TO meet 1t with responding warmth
when. one realized that they did not
know the teachery OF the enemy
they must face. that they would be

uncivilized corners OF the globe
and trat many Of them would never

Karen wondered again what
Martin would do, what part he
would seek. She had not asked him,
although she had wanted to. 1t was
unthinkable that he would not
somehow do his part. She admired
him far too much in other ways to
discredit him in this. He might. OF

was a contradiction not to want
this to happen. But everything was
contradiction these days. the
world itself. madly trying to kill
off its peoples and its civilization
and denounce its faiths. So that il
was no wonder Karen's little world
should be off balance.
Outwardly it remained In some
ways the same; things were, on the
surface. the same between herself
and Paul. although she knew they
were not underneath. They were
not the same within herself. not
just because OF Martin. although
partly that, If she would be entire

were not the same within Paul. not
because he behaved any differently
toward her. but because he was too
careful to be the same.
