CHAPTER THIRTY-FoUR
Inane conversation. Anything 10
bridge the gap Of unspoken words,
unspoken accusations, unspoken
hopes. Calls eyes met his. And
there was sudden panic In her eyes,
q kind Of inexplicable wonder in his.
Burke asked boyishly, "How do
you like my uniform, Gail!"
"You look beautiful" she said.
They stood in uncomfortable 81
lence, Gail was very conscious Of
Mrs. Gentry's glances that said:
Why are you herei Why must you
interfere with a mothers farewell
to her only son!
Burke looked at the big station
clock. II guess we'd better get
started. The train must be made up
by now" A porter picked up his
luggage, led them toward the train
shed. Mrs. Gentry continued to cling
to Burke.
At last Il was time for the train
TO pull out. Burke looked hesitantly
at the two women.
Burke" Mrs. Gentry said, "As
soon as you know where you'll be
permanently stationed, I'll close the
house and come to you"
"That'll be swell, mother" He
took the older woman in his arms,
kissed her gently. Then he looked at
Gail, flustered and uncertain.
Gail hesitated, then held out her
hand. Goodbye, Burke. Good luck."
As his train drew out, Gail was
appalled, at her relief. What's the
matter with Us anyway she
thought. The man I've loved for
years has left, perhaps forever, and
I stand here, wondering how soon
and how gracefully can get away
from mis- mother!
MAY I find . taxi for you. Mrs..
Gentry? 7" she asked.
THANK you, not yet" Mrs. Gen.
try said firmly. "Ah-Miss Benton,
I should like to speak to you, and
this seems q reasonable time. Shall
we 90 into the waiting room and sit
down Il won't take long"
Gail said gently, 81 think I know
what you want TO say, Mrs. Gentry.
II you fear that Burke and ! got
married before he left--or that we
plan To get married on one Of his
ieaves-I assure you that you're
mistaken. You still have your son,
Mrs. Gentry. At least III never take
him away from you"
Il was true. She knew now that
Burke had failed her. Like her ca
reer. Like her world. Like every
Katie stamped around the house,
her dyed hair bristling, her fat face
openly belligerent. The woman with
her looked like . pouter pigeon,
but surveyed the rooms with the
eyes Of hawk
You mean there Il no dining
room In the house 7"
"No, ma'am.r Katie's curt voice
implied that II was vulgar to have
Q dining room.
"well, possibly we could fx up
the Doctors ofiee for dining room.

engineers to work undetected, al

completed the job in 20 minutes-a
full hour and a half before H hour.
after finishing, they stood guard
until the doughboys started cross
