suburb of Praga.
Loss of Ossow was acknowledged
in the midnight soviet communique,
the first announced loss of any i'm
portance since the vast victory pa
rade of the Russian summer Of
fensive began June %.
The Russians never had announc-
ed capture of Ossow, marking their
closest approach to Warsaw since
they began the suburban siege Of
the capital July 81 after Selling
Wolomin, 10 miles northeast.
This was the second day that the
Russians had reported German
counterattacks before Warsaw, but
they made clear that the price the
Nazis paid for this fractional sue
cess was exorbitant.
The communique reported that
on all fronts Tuesday the Germans
lost 118 tanks, raising the two-day
total of German armor losses to
232 and implying that great per-
centage of these were in front Of
Warsaw.
The German high command
communique omitted mention Of
Warsaw.
Elsewhere on the 1,000-mile &C
tive front the Russians reported
continuing successes.

Tomorrow is a Lovely Word

But Andrea was not content. Sit
ting beside him in his low-slung
car, dancing with him, across from
him at the many tables of which
she was beginning to tire, she
dreamed of being mistress Of his
big house in the valley, Of travelling
with him, of being Mrs. Archer. The
goal that never came nearer.
He was getting out Of the car
when she opened the front door.
Hello" she said, seeing with dis
appointment that he was not in
dinner Jacket. II came down to
meet you because Beth is enter
tanning her :" she broke of at
the point OF saying, beau" and
she wondered why she hadn't, or
rather why she hadn't wanted to.
II almost rang up to ask you to
let me off tonight, dear. Would you
have minded?'
I'D always mind" she said, but
she thought, Il wouldn't have-not
tonight" and did not ask herself
why. Nor did she ask Dennis why.
She said, Are we going to the
Metropole ?"
mo" he said rather shortly.
IT'S noisy there and d.. / want
to talk to you"
They drove in silence through
the city and out to the hills, one
not seeming TO notice the others

small, almost dark inn, before
which there were only two or three
cars, and Dennis stopped the car,
Andrea pouted and said, This is
so dreary. darling. No one ever

ness, taking you quite deliberately

Because you want me to your

purpose ,"
THE first always goes-you'll

They found a secluded corner,
and might well have been in the
middle Of the floor for all the at
tention anyone paid them. Dennis
took her slim hands in his own,
gave them a quick pressure and let
them go.
What does all this mean ?" An
drea asked, seeing for the first
time that his face looked tired and
old.
Beatrice is here. She came to-

Andreas face stifened. Your

This time it had to be, my dear.
We had business TO discuss.

CHAPTER THREE

When she pushed the button TO
bring up the elevator, Andrea felt
something that began under her
red-tipped finger shoot up through
her arm, and it was kind of inner
electricity, a spark set off by some
thing that she could not explain.
But Andrea was not girl who
tried to explain the things she felt.
Turmoil was not new TO her, and
she knew that it was frequently
born of no more than discomfort, an
urge to hasten life, which moved
too slowly. 1t set up a turmoil
that was now slowly burning anger
against the pattern she lived by.
Beth thought that hate was q
word on Andreas lips, spoken
without consciousness of Its real
meaning, but Andrea knew it was
not. From the depths Of her soul
she hated the dizziness, the stand
ing stiffness of the mold from which
she could not escape because she
had to live on the money she
earned as secretary, and because
she knew there was no escape I'M
less she could marry a man with
money. Before Dennis Archer had
come into her life, she would have
married any man who could have
given her the things for which she
longed. Sometimes she awoke in
the night and thought of the touch
Of soft furs, the sparkle Of jewels,
the feel Of fine clothes. She ached
TO see the wonders OF the Riviera,
Paris in the spring, London during
the season. That the war had
BANKED out all these things was of
no moment to her. There were 9TH
or luXuries to be seen and slipped
and grasped. and feeling was in her
like hungry fingers reaching out
for this soul food she craved.
Once it would have been iust
that, no more. Once she might have
got over it and some young man,
handsome, ray, destined to more
than-well, someone like Jim Ron
ald-the simple rewards Of his
work, might have come along and
she'd have married him.
But she had met Dennis.
Dennis. with his fine linens and
fabrics. his strong, brown hands,
his Oxfordian voice, his manner
that commanded the service An
drea thought was meant for kings.
Dennis, with his ease and grace.
his worldly air. Dennis, who had
known all the places she wanted to
know. Dennis. who never made vio-
lent love to her the way the youths
she knew had done. Dennis. who
made love to her with his eyes. his
attentions, who had told her in a
thousand wsys-ssve one-that he
loved her.
Dennis. who was content with
tie little he had Of her.
