A. Upon the occasion of death, some expression of sympathy is always appreciated by the family, but the less elaborate the expression the better. A simple ”1 am sorry. Is there anything I can do?” is sincere and sufficient. Q. I am always uncertain about the lettuce on which a salad is served. Is It really proper to eat this? A. Since the lettuce is as much a part of the salad as any other of the ingredients, it is quite proper to eat it. Q. What jewels, if any, should a bride wear for her wedding ceremony? A Only the gift from her bridegroom. Trade in a good town — Decatur

CHAPTER 1 fXN A WILD NIGHT, pitch- ' O dark,-** Tflfcht <** howling ' wind and lashing rain, Deborah ' Vail drove a dilapidated car over 1 >n unfamiliar road. The road 1 twisted and wound, roae and fell, narrowing to little more than a rutted lane. On either side, gnarled old trees reached out branches as deformed as arthritic fingers. The little car kept threatening to give up. It labored, panted, faltered. The windshield wipers moved jerkily, in spasms. The leaky roof sent a steady drip down on the girl’s neck. She had planned the Journey from London in one day, with an early start, but had fretted away two nights in drab hotels in soot-blackened industrial towns while mechanics worked, at overtime rates, on the uthmatic engine. Everything was wrong with it that could be wrong. The wonder was that the wretched thing ran at alt More than an nour before, Deborah had crossed the border from England into Scotland. She ihould now be nearing the market town of Garnock that was her goal: but between the rain, the dark, and her ineptitude with road maps, she had lost the main road and blundered on to some track across the moor. The only signs of civilization were the tall poles at intervals along the roadside and the wires, humming in the storm, strung from the crosspieces. Soon after passing the last crossroads she had suspected herself of taking the wrong fork but was too stubborn to turn and go tack. It would do no harm, She had reasoned, to go on a tittle farther and see. But she had gone on and on and on without getting anywhere. Not a soul to help her. No wayside cottage with a friendly light. Not even a signpost or a milestone. Only dark, rain, wind, and desolation. She told herself sharply not to be a fool, not to panic. She had lost her way. She would find it again. It was as simple as that But her scalp prickled as she gripped the steering wheel and peered through streaming glass at the boisterous night A sudden flash of lightning. A thunderclap. Startled, she lost control and the little car swerved. Before she could master it she heard a loud bang and, a moment later, the thumping of a blownI out tire!. Halting the car, she sat for a whilife. fuming with exasperation, before stepping out into the downpour to examine the dumagff- y Li— The tire was flat and flabby, as she had known it would be. There was nothing she could do about it The jack only worked, in apparent self-justification, when site complained of it to a mechanic. «s uuz. tv J*

sne looked up ana aown me .road. Nct a glimmer of light to be seen; and th® last house she . remembered passing was miles behind. In all those miles she had not seen a single wayfarer or a vehicle. But JUxere might be a village round next bend. The important tilting was to keep calm, to keep her head. By the luminous dial of her watch ft was ten-thirty. Past bedtime In a ebuntry district but not too late to arouse someone if she could find a house. It meant plodding along a muddy' road through the murk with no other guide than her faulty sense of direction, and becoming wetter and wetter with every step. On the other hand, she could sit in the car until help came or the storm passed; but that might mean sitting there all night, a chilly prospect, and she was already drenched to the skin. Apart from her own plight, she ought to make an effort to find a telephone for the sake of her cousin, who would be expecting her and would worry. With a wry smile, she remembered the phone call to her cousin the previous evening, and the one the evening before that. “Tm quite all right, only the car’s broken down. They’re mending It now; you can expect me tomorrow.” The same story, two nights in a row. And now the wretched thing had broken down again. But this time there was no handy garage, no convenient telephone booth, no near-by hotel to shelter her. A more phlegmatic person might shrug hei shoulders and go complacently to bed when Deborah, for the third time, failed to turn up: but this cousin was not like that Probably she had begun to worry already and by midnight, it there was still no word, she would be thoroughly alarmed. Reaching into the car, Deborah switched off the engine and lights. Turning up her sodden coat collar, digging her hands deep into the pockets, she started trudging along the road in the direction she had been taking. There was no point tn turning back, no help to be looked for in that forlorn stretch. The wind was slackening but the rain beat pitilessly on her shoulders. It quickly made a soggy mess of her pert hat. The ■ rough muddy surface of the road : was ruinous to her smart, She had brought the flashlight : from the glove compartment, but ■ the battery was low and she dar- > ed not use it longer than seconds • at a time. ■> She plodded on, stumbling now i and then, watching avidly for » some sign of human habitation, t beginning to despair of ever flnd- - ing any. After a while of this she 1 was too cold and miserable to gc -■ farther. She stopped, drew- a deef ■ breath to hold back tears, anc aiuos BftftftlA DUtribulad bv Kina Fa

nan-rurnea w go oac* to tne car. And then she saw a light. Not Aar. aS. Half.hidden among ths trees. Incredulous but delighted, she started to run. Drawing closer, she saw the uneven shape of a house; a dark " and gloomy outline except for one lighted window. Her eyes fixed on the hopeful glimmer, she bumped into a gate whose rusty hinges creaked when she opened it. The pale yellow glimmer of her flashlight found a flagstone njth, sprouting tufts ,pf weeds, wfilch she followed to rough stone steps leading to ths front door. While rapping sharply with ths heavy brass knocker, she mentally framed some polite explanatory phrases. She listened, ex. pecting to hear the footsteps of someone coming to answer. But there was no sound. As she lifted her hand to grasp the knocker again, the one light that showed abruptly went out It was as disconcerting as a rude answer to a polite inquiry. For a moment she was completely taken aback. But she was not going to let herself be rebuffed and shut out not in her predicament, not In a storm like this. Gripping the» knocker firmly, she set up a pounding that echoed through the house. For good measure she pressed a button beside the door and heard the shrilling of a bell. For what seemed a long time she knocked and rang, knocked and rang, pausing at intervals to listen, hearing nothing but the pattering of rain. l She noticed a faint stirring at i a curtained window on her left. Someone. ‘ was standing there, > watching her through a sllt be- : tween the curtains. Furious, she reached out and rapped on the window. The narrow parting between . the curtains closed as the person i who had stood there moved away. . Afterwards, Deborah was to won- - der why she had not been terri* > fled. At the time she was not ; frightened, only very angry. i Her anger went into another a prolonged knocking. 5 Suddenly a light went on in the i passage beyond the door and she heard footsteps. The door was t flung open by a targe man who r regarded her with a cold, inhospi- - table stare. There was enough e light tor her to see that he was 1 in the early thirties, that he needi. ed • shave, that he wore a torn t flannel shirt, stained trousers and t worn sandals. She had the fleet- ■ ing thought that he might be ats tractive if his expression were less boorish and hostile. v “Can’t you go away and leave r me in peace!" the man said savi, agely. “Yoil’re all the same — I- What do you think I am —a e bloody peep show?

CONSOLIDATION 1 Cuntln u*d tram On*) reserved a final commitment pending a formal invitation from the NATO council. However, it seemed unlikely the President would refuse in view of the strong emphasis placed by the Macmillan - Eisenhower communique for doing something now to meet Ru'ssla's "totalitarian menace.” In their communique, the President and Prime Minister agreed' that at the NATO meeting there should be attempted an "enlarged Atlantic effort in scientific research and development."
