Like she's just stepped out of
bandbox," John continued.
Betty flushed. She had had the
expression applied to her before.
Since her first days with the COM
pany, she knew she had been fa-
miliarly referred to by the other
employees as "Bandbox Betty" but
it was disconcerting to be discussed
in this fashion.

"That's fair enough" echoed MIR.
Humphreys, "if it's all right with
Miss Barclay"
"Well," conceded Betty, "but I
warn you, I have all the insurance
I need"
Dinner with John Thomas was
distinctly pleasant. It was cool in
the Orchid room and the table ap-
pointments were perfect. The floor
show was good, the food even better.
From cocktail to parfait, the courses
were faultless. John himself met
every requirement as an escort.
Betty began to be glad Mr.. Hum
phreys had put the fan on a chair.
'Not a hair out Of place." John
commented.
"They drill it into you," countered
Betty, "at secretarial school. White
collars, tidy fingernails, all that"

eyes twinkling, "YOU WOULDN'T

lap and settled herself with COM
Portable sigh. you've got pretty
DRESS" she added, stroking it with
a hand which was just trifle grimy.
Betty looked down at her wrinkled
skirt, but under the child's weight
it could not be Strengthened. John,
busy with getting the convertible
out of the Saturday traffic, appeared
not to notice. He looked different
in wash trousers and sports shirt.
Muggsy, too, wore a washable print
dress. Betty ruefully considered her
office apparel but made no comment
AS they drove, the wind whipped
at Betty's hair. She had no net and
all she could do was keep pinning
the strands back in place. When
they reached the picnic spot,
Muggsy jumped up and down in de-
light. "C'n 1 wade, Uncle John, en-
I wade?" she called, casting off
shoes and socks and stepping into
the creek. I'm going to look for
crawdads," she declared, peering
stealthily under rocks in the shallow
stream, now and then letting her
dress tail dribble in the water.
Betty was gazing into pocket
mirror, trying to smooth her hair.
Come help me-" John called, piling
twigs in little rock fireplace. "You
unpack the lunch, while I build a
fire to make the coffee and broil the
steaks"
The fire smoked, ashes fell into
the coffee, the charred stick forks
made smudges. Betty did her best
to stay neat, but Muggsy was every
where at once, dribbling steak-juice,
mustard and catsup. A singing SEN
sation crept behind Betty's eyelids
as she recalled Johns admiring
words, "I'LL BET YOU WOULDN'T
EVEN GET MUSSED AT A PIC
MIC" She pulled Intellectually at
her wrinkled frock, dabbed with
handkerchief at stains, wiped the
dust from her shoes. 1t was unfair
of John to put her to such test.
The picnic dragged mercilessly on
to an amusement park where
Muggsy@ wanted to ride a roller
coaster. Betty shuddered. She hated
roller coasters, she hated flying
turns, but she found herself hurting
through space with John and
Muggsy in any number Of crazy
fashions. When they emerged, her
bun was quite gone, the blonde hair
hanging loosely about her shoulders.
Her shoes were full of shavings from
the amusement park grounds, she
had run in her hose and her face
was smudged and devoid of makeup.
John stared at her and laughed
aloud. What" he asked, "has be-
come of Bandbox Betty?"
Someone, she thought, should slap
his face, but before she could put
the impulse into effect, he had seized
her hands and pulled her close. To
her amazement, he kissed her fierce
ly, before all the people In the
amusement park, with Muggsy gig
Cling at them both. Everything
seemed to fade away as she kissed
back.

misplaced commas, Mr.. Humphreys
was happy, John seemed happy and
Betty was almost happy. Only-that
was all that ever happened. Never
once had John attempted to kiss
her or even hold her hand. He was.
she concluded finally, a confirmed
bachelor.
"Just as l." she thought, poklng
savagely at the typewriter keys. "am

It was a Saturday, almost noon
quitting time. John had not called,
and the future suddenly became o
whole series of weary calendar
pages, neatly torn off day by day
and deposited in the wastebasket.
As she walked from the building,
there was Johns convertible parked
at the entrance.
Get in," he called, "we're going
on a picnic!"
It was amazing how his red hair
could brighten up the day! Betty
was happily In the car before she
even noticed his female cOmpan-

huddled between John and bulg-

IN SEARCH OF BREAD
EAMINE in Judah, where Elime-
l. lech and his wife, Naomi, and
their sons, Mahlon and Chilion,
dwelt, drove them to Moab, in
search Of bread. Elimelech died,
and the sons married young women
of Moab, Ruth and Orpah. And
then the sons died. Naomi, feeling
that she must not longer remain
in Moab, announced her intention to
return to her native land, and bade
Ruth and Orpah farewell. In one
brief decade Naomi had lost hus-
band and sons, and now she longed
for home.

TTEAT shimmered from the down.
IL town pavements. Torrid light
fell in bars through the Venetian
blinds in Mr.. Humphreys private
office, carrying with 1t a coppery
odor, like that of a penny clutched
too long in a perspiring palm. 1t
was a hot day all right, and the city
lay painting under the monday sun.

Betty returned from lunch. Let the
air circulate" "Whew," he added.
mopping his brow, we've got to
get some air conditioning in this
hotbox."
Betty smiled, removing her white
gloves and her crisp white hats Mr..
Humphreys said the same thing
every summer. She laid her gloves
and white purse neatly away in the
bottom desk drawer and sat down
at the typewriter. With her blonde
hair sleek and smooth and her pale
green dress miraculously unwrln-
kled. she looked as cool and fresh
as an iced limeade.
How do you do it, Miss Barclay"
marveled Mr.. Humphreys, entering
the cubicle Of an outer office where
she sat as secretary and receptionlst.
"You can't be as cool as you look!
Anyhow, let's put this fan out here
somewhere to stir up little breeze"
He looked around vaguely, pulled
out a chair a few feet from Betty's
desk. set the fan on it, plugged in
the cord and returned to his own
large desk through the open door
marked Private.
Betty gazed doubtfully at the fan
whirring away on the chair before
her. She anchored the fluttering pa
pers on her desk with paperweights,
and, with little frown of annoy
ance, smoothed back the tendrils OF
hair which were beginning to blow
loose from the bun at the nape OF
her neck. She caught Mr.. Hum
phreys looking at her and smiled.
After all, Mr.. Humphreys was the
boss. II he wanted to go around
putting electric fans on chairs. It
was no business of hers. Anyway,
MIR. Humphreys was nice. Nice, and
quite, quite happily married.
They were all quite happily mar
ried, thought Betty with sigh, as
she began on her transcription. All
the really nice members of the Of
fee force in the other departments,
all the incest statesmen. That busl-
ness of romance in an office was
just something you read about IN
magazines.
"Is Mr.. Humphreys in?"
She looked up as a tall, broad
shouldered, red-haired young man
strolled toward her desk and thrust
a business card into her hand. Be-
fore she knew what was happening,
he had pulled up his trouser legs
slightly, to preserve their meticulous
crease, and had begun to assume
sitting position over the whirring
fan.
Don't sit down." Betty shrieked,
simultaneously with Mr.. Humphreys
shout.
The young man catapulted away
from the chair as though bomb
suddenly had sprung from the fan
blades. Backed against Betty's
desk, he stared, then grinned. MIR.
Humphreys, flown to the rescue,
was mopping his brow again, but
not from heat.
THAT" he said, shakily, "was a
narrow escape" He disconnected the
fan and stood, bewilderedly, holding
it.
Her composure regained now that
catastrophe had been averted, Betty
became once more all cool efficiency.
She glanced at the card. She
chuckled. She could not help it.

Arizona sun., 1948-07-16
,"INTREAT ME NOT TO LEAVE

THEE"
~ RPAH accepted Naomi's sug-
" gestion, and turned away to
her own people; but not so with
Ruth. She loved Naomi. She could
not give her up. Naomi had done
something for Ruth in those years
of sorrow and loss.
"Intreat me not to leave thee, or
to return from following after thee;
for whittier thou goest, will go;
and where thou lodgest. I viii
lodge. Thy people shall be my peo-
pie, and thy God my God. Where
thou diest, l will die, and there will
/ be buried. The Lord do so to me,
and more also, if ought but death
part thee and me-"
With these sublime words, Ruth
lashed herself to Naomi, and to-
gether they started on the long trek
to Bethlehem.
WHEN FAITH CONQUERS
TT ERE we witness conquering
l. i faith-conquering faith in the
hearts of Naomi and Ruth And they
come to Bethlehem. It was the har-
vest season, and Naomi directed
Ruth to CLEAN in the field of Boaz,
a wealthy and generous-hearted
citizen of Bethlehem. Faith in ac-
ton! And the world loves the story
of Ruth becoming the wife of Boaz,
and thus the mother of Obed, the
grandfather of David the king in
the ancestral line of Jesus Christ,
the King of kings.
And Naomi, through her conquer
ing faith, held in her arms the little
baby, Obed, and dreamed of God S
unfolding purposes to bless the
world.
In this unsurpassed romance we
witness faith in adversely, faith in
association, faith in conduct, faith
in claim, faith in confidence, and
faith in a glorious climax.
WHEN FAITH CONQUERS
7 IFE is always ennobled when
IL faith conquers. It is easy to
imagine how history might have
missed this beautiful love story,
had not Naomi been woman OF
conquering faith. She might have
given up and over to her great
sorrow, and pined away in grief
and defeat.
But Naomi followed the gleam.
And her trust in God shed its gen.
tie glow into the lonely heart of the
Moabite widow, Ruth. Ruth clave
unto Naomi She could not do other
wise. Truth is stranger than fic-
ton"
And all history was enriched. It
is ever so when faith conquers.
