After everybody had gone, Judith tidied up the home while she waited for her hutband If bo had net been driving, Judith would not have worried. When the could stand it no longer, the tele* phoned the airport. He had been there and gone, was the report By three A. M., Judith waa betide herself.

The clock ticked loudly -n the living room. Finally she determined Mt to wait up any longer. If ho were ail right, he would be furious to find her wide-eyed and terrified. Her nerves were in no shape to risk a quarrel. She left one light on downstairs and went on op to the bod room Judith tried to sleep. It was no use Finally the windows greyed. It wm getting daylight. Another car waa coming ... it stopped. Then she hoard the garage doors doss. He had cosae home. Determinedly she lay down, composed herself, closed her eyes.

Tex undnaaed in the dark, fell into hie bed. Judith clenched her hands, waiting. Soon he was breathing regularly She was shaking, so great was the reaction. He was heme, safe. In the morning Judith did Mt awaken until Tex called her from the kitchen: "I’m hungry- How about breakfastT" Exhausted. Judith dragged herself out of bed. took a cold shower. Tex had the coffee going when she joined him ia the kitchen. "Good morning, sleepy head. Was it you or I who went off the reservation last night?" he asked gaily. “1 got mixed up with some of the gang at the airport. I’m sorry." "That's all right I waa worried about you and the ear," “I should have called you but I intended to leave after every drink. Lord I fee! awful! And I’ve got to go to week tonight" So ceded their New Tear's celebration. Tex wm honestly sorry. He and Judith went for a long walk around noon. Tex was ia great good humor. Judith triad to forget the long hours of waiting. "That’s ths way to handle, him, not to make a eeene." Judith congratulated herself on her restraint. She Anally drove him to the airport fee his nine o’clock run. "I should to back by too odeek toesorrow, unless the weather Is tod." "Shall 1 moot you?" "Check with the boys first If I’m coming in, you might run over if you haven’t anything else to de." Judith toft him Aon. Upon roturning howx, she gisiMßd nt Um evening papers.
