The cab Tommy had hailed

watched the stars as they were

a part OF the demure and shy
smile. III,

and she was fumbling in her bag
for the key. He stood there, awk--

tell her goodnight differently.
He had just worked UP the
courage for a good night kiss
when she unlocked the door,
stepped inside and closed it be-
hind her. Tommy stood on the
steps a few minutes before re-
turning to the waiting cab. /
