He laughed at her double take.
Come back if this doesn't work
out. Well look for something else" "
"Thanksl" Jean hurried away
with the precious card clutched In
her hand. 'They can use me, they
can use me-" her mind was gloat-
ing jubilantly. IT don't care if they
send ne to Timbuctoo-they CAN
use mel"
In the imposing outer office OF a
private corporation, Jean waited
over an hour while the stream o.
applicants ahead Of her were
rushed into the private sanctum
of Mr.. Lands.
Jeans courage was almost gone
when her turn came at last. She
opened the heavy door and stepped
hesitantly into the huge. luxurious
office. A man of 36 or 81 glanced
up from the shining expanse OF
desk, then leaped to his feet with
flattering show of surprise.
Are YOU the young lady Ter
the secretarial position?'
Eyes. Jean Marsden is the
name"
She noted as he came toward
her that he was tall, rangy and
decisive, that he had a wave in
his brown hair and nice smile.
He was scrutinizing her with no
attempt to hide his admiration
and calculation. He spoke quietly.
Pm afraid you'd never De hap

Jeans rising spirits sank at the
tone. She knew in the same IN
slant she wanted to work for him

was the alert, friendly type-w'no
rever let friendship interfere with
business.

steadily, but his expression OF
cheerful incredulity did not change.
She would be out in the hall again
in about two seconds if she didn't
do something. Desperately s h e
showed the short note from the en-
ployment bureau toward him. He
glanced down at it politely. A wave
of anger at her helplessness surged
through her.
He quirked a generous eyebrow
at her, pdzzled. 'Why?"

Jean angrily. You'd think I had
forged the experience, or the

CHAPTER TWO

Since childhood, the length o1

into decision came the impulse tt

ried government in wartime?
Henri said she didn't! When he
had recovered his breath from the
first shock of her announcement
he had run after her down the
narrow hall of the salon shouting q
rapid tumble of arguments at her
"A thousand girls can do Worh
for defense-it ees not your place.
You will be only zee bother-zee

'1f I'm a beautiful bother" Jean
called to him through her locked
dressing room door, "Tl come

she slipped into her tailored suit,
gave her lustrous blond hair a quick
brushing and knotted it at the back

with a lifting feather, swept up
purse and gloves in one quick
movement and hurried out the back
way to the garage. The attendant
brought up her smart roadster with
grinning flourish. "How's the big
brother" he asked.
Jean choked. Her fingers gripped
the purse that held the fateful
telegram as she nodded to the boy.
Pm sure he's-swell-sWell," " she
managed with an answering smile
as she drove off. There would be
no turning back now. She found,

that is, she WOULD be in it if they
would have her. They'd have to
find something she could do!
The Central Defense Employ
ment division was large and
iammed. Jean found the applica'
tons and filled one out. The man
to whom she gave it was young
and harried. With sinking heart
she read his verdict in his swift
glance of appraisal. Beautiful did
