- SYNOPSIS \ K Comely M'sa Carol Marscjen Is eu route from Knglaad to New York and Palm Beach, to as exchange job io the smart Appleton apparel shops th these .jetties. This is the result or an award which she had won as a buyer for Fetton's Department Store of Condo*. Derek Appleton of the famous Nevr Yon: firm, accompany Carol aboard the Queen Mary. Thelma, a shameless adventuress had managed to wangle the Felton estate from her late doting, senile husbard, so that now she owns the Felton store. As the ship sails, we And her tn her luxurious cabin, assorting her many bon voyage floral tributes. Among, tbese she comes upon art ugly flowering cactus and the sight of it causes her to faint in fear. Recovering composure. Thelma pursues Derek Appleton' relentlessly, making a play for his favor. But that first night at sea he manages to escape her long enough to dance with Carol Jason Felton tu-ns up unexpectedly aboard ship. Thelma had cruelly persecuted this only nephew of her late husbandAware that he is bent on revenge, shb is thoroughly alarmed by his presence and the sinister significance of that horrid cactus plant! CHAPTER TWELVE V JASON’S was a small cabin, but. pleasantly decorated and spotlessly clean. J -I wouldn’t exactly Call this a slum,” she said. “It isn’t bad,” he agreed, nodding. “1 can’t offer you a chair be* cause there isn’t one. Will you sit on the bed, or; shall I upturn a suitcase for you?” ; , “I’ll sit on the bed.” He sat himself on an upturned suitcase facing her, ' leaning his back against the wall. “Why aren’t you upstairs dancing with the glamorous Derek Appleton? Don’t tell me he didn’t ask you. He acted very possessively towards you in the Palm} Lounge. He didn’t like my suggestion that you and I are—well, more than mere friends, either."' She looked down at her ciga- ' ret. Her hand was trembling slightly. “But we’re not.”’_ we are. At least,” he leaned forward and made a great; show of earnestness, “you know how I feel about you, Carol.” “Shouldn’t it be ‘darling' she suggested coldly. “You\called me: ’darling* up in the lounge earlier.’’ He looked across at her with his blue eyes, appraising, her. “Are ycgi making fun 6t me, darling?” “That’s better,” she said. “But you’ll have to practice it, Jason.”’ He gave her K another swift glance. “You are making fun bf me.” ■ * ' ' i “Weren’t you making fun of me earlier this evening?” “No.” The half-mocking smile died out of his eyes. “You must be-; lieve that,” be added, and this time she felt he was sincere. s <“You said you’d taken that job in Florida to be near me. But that isn’t true,” she said. “Darling, what a suspicious mind you have.” But he sounded amused. “Then, why do you think I’m going over to the States?" he added. j ’ “Because you wknt to keep an eye on Mrs. Felton,” she said. *!But to to be in love with me makes a good cover, doesn’t it?” Carol saw the color rise to Jason's forehead and she knew she had struck\the bull's eye. He looked shamefaced but defiant —' rather tike a small boy, she thought suddenly. v , She went on speaking quietly.

It will actually be two eohcentric 'circles, the outside 85 feet in radius with the’ smallef one 40 feet in radius. Finlayson said the ground will be cleared pf grass and smoothed somewhat like the infield of a bast* ball diamond. fie said It was being done for the young boys in keeping with Central Soya’s policy of increading thq use of its facilities.

“You think that in the States, tn Florida possibly, you may find out something about Mrs. Felton, 1 don’t know what it can be, but you think it’s important enough to have made thia trip.” She paused. He looking across at her very soberly now. “You're a pretty smart girl, aren’t you, Carol?” . “Smart enough to have figured that one out,” she agreed. • He threw h|s cigaret on the floor and crushed it out with his heel "I suppose I'm a pretty bum actor,” he conceded, and again he grinned in a shamefaced way. \ She nodded. “But you could improve your act if I helped you out;” she said. His head jerked up. The blue eyes looked across at her in genuine surprise. “But why should you?” 4-gain she spoke quietly. "I think Tm beginning to hate Mrs. Felton almost as much as you do, Jason.” His eyes narrowed. “What has she done to you? 1 understood it was she who gave the casting vote that turned the tittle buyer from the Women’s Sportswear department into a six months’ Cinderella. You should be grateful,” His voice was mocking. “Has she been trampling on your corns where the handsomp American is concerned? Have you fallen for him, Carol?” She snook her head, adding, “But 1 like him. I like him very much. No, it was what she said to me this evening, when she found out you were on board. 1 think she was frightened, Jason.” “Was she ?” His voice had sharpened eagerly. She nodded. “And she threatened that X’d lose my jpb if I didn't play ball with her. From what she let fall, 1 gathered it was because of what she'd said that you and your uncle quarreled.” “Yes.” His voice was clipped and bitter now. “At first, she thought I'd be an easy mark, but when she found 1 wasn’t, she tried continually to interfere with the job I was trying to do. I’ve worked at Felton’s since I was a boy and I'd always understood from Uncle William that it would one day come to me. I couldn't stand her interference and 1 let her see how I felt bbth about it and about her, rather drudely. She hated me and filled my uncle’s head with a pack of lies. 1 was trying to seduce the girls, they'd confided in her, telling her now awkward and embarrassed they felt about tt, appealing to her to intervene.” He gave\a short, angry laugh. “From the first moment Uncle William brought her back from the States I couldn’t stand the woman. But he was fatuously in’love with her, the lovely young wife, and. believed everything she told him. In a fury he accused me of all the hes she’d planted in his mind—he wouldn’t listen to anything I had to say. 1 was ignominiously thrown out of my job and he told me he was cutting out of his will as well. 1 telj you,” his voice roughened and sh< saw hands clench tightly on his - knees, “it hurt a loL It wasn't being cut out of the will 1 minded so much: it was losing my association' with Falton'a. For I am a Felton, the last aurvivlng Felton, and rightly the store should have cbme to me as it came to him, a cousin of the last owner.

simply because tie was a Felton. But when be died, she got 'everything. ’Everything,’ as the Will read. To my wife.’” HO paused abruptly. “But what do you hope to find out in the States ?” she asked. He got up and crossed again to the porthole, leaning against it. “Frankly, 1 don’t know,” he said finally. “Only,” he grinned a little, “a hunch, A hUn c b that she’s scared of someone or something ... I don't know. As 1 said, it’s just a hunch, but that night at the staff dance when you told me she was going across with you, | decided Td go tod, if I could get a job. Julie was always a bit of a friend of mine—” He broke off and his blue eyes twinkled momentarily. “Jealous, Carol?” “No,” she said coldly. \ “Okay,” he grinned, “you’re not jealous. Anyhow, Julie cabled back offering me the job of chauffeur. She's a good sport. I don’t suppose she needs a chauffeur. Most women in America drive themselves.” But |t might be pleasant to have someone like Jason to drive you about, Carol thought, but not graciously. “And you have to drag a pretended love affair with me into it as well?” she said aloud. He looked contrite again. “I thought it might make it more convincing,” be muttered. He laughed and added, leaning forward as he took one of her hands, “You’re a godd sport, too, Carol. Are yoii going to help me out?” She drelv her hand out of his. “1 don’t mind your pretending to be m love with me so long as you don’t expect me to believe you are.” i His blue eyes twinkled. “Is that a deal?” She nodded. “If. you like. But. definitely, I am not even supposed to be in love with you.” “The handsome American coming into the picture again ?” She hesitated- “It might be.” He nodded. .“Good work if yov can get him, Carol. I don’t think you'll be harming yourself any Competition never put any mar off a girl. Maybe you’ve thought of that ?” \ “Maybe,” she agreed. “Good! I’ll help you all I can, CaroL He seems a very decent bloke. Come up\into our inferior bar and let me buy you a drink?” he added. “All right” She got quickly tc her feet And sis they went along the corridor and up the staircase, she wondered it she should tell him of that brief conversation she had overheard between Thelma and Don Haskin the night of the ataff dance. But just then she felt too so/e at Jason to confide freely in him. ’ Alee she had some sense of loyalty towards Thelma, who was spll her boss. When finally she got back jto her , cabin, there were pale yellow rosea j in a vase. A note was written on i a piece of ship's paper. / am bo sorry about your headache, i shall be looking for you m the morning. It was signed Derek. She stood looking down at the note and then at the flowers. Yes, he was very. nice. Too nice for Thelma Felton. fTo Be Continued)
