CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE Ronnie stopped the car. “Let's get, things straight. What arc you talking about Nancy?” Nancy told h:m in a low, unhappy voice, but courageously. When <he had finished, Ronnie asked. • Was that the reason why you wouldn't go through with it. Nancy?” “Part of the reason,” Nancy said. ‘ Let’s have all of it.” Nancy shook her head. • please. Nan.” His tone was tendoi, and Nancy’s reserve broke. She cried wildly. I couldn't marry you. Ronnie, under fai? pretenses. I wasn't trying to save your face, as you thought. I was marrying you because I love you with my whole heart! I didn't tell Dana everything the doctor said because I thought I would die if she didn't go— And then Nancy had found a comforting haven in Ronnie's arms, while Ronnie wiped the tears from her eves with his handkerchief, and kissed her over and over again. ‘I have something to confess, too.’ Ronnie said. “When I came to your home for Dana tonight I was all mixed up and darn miserable. Some little vixen I had had to shake and kiss one night had mixed things up for me. I had decided she was right, about what she said. And I had discovered something else, that 1 was in love with the. little vixen, though I didn't know whet to do about it. You won't believe me, maybe.” • Oh, Ronnie. I will believe you,” Nanev cried, ‘ because I want, to so much." Her arms went up and closed rapturously around him. a tt a SOME time later, the Rev. Bennett's front door was treated to another vigorous pounding. The minister, tired from the night's exciting experiences, slept deeply on. F.ut his wrapper-clad wife answered the bell, and under persuasion opened the door. “Father, it’s a couple to be married. The same young couple!” "Constantinople!” exclaimed the minister, excitedly, clambering out of bed. “An ejaculation termed “Presbyterian dam” by his family. “Rut in a moment he was chuckling. These modern young people tried your patience! But they would make a, nice young couple. And it was going o ire nicer still to be able to keep that SIOO bill this time. a tt tt DANA had entered the hospital j and was making her way to ■ the information window. The girl i cierk looked at her curiously. It j was only a momentary curiosity. | From her post bark of the grill, j she had looked into tragic faces many times before. “I want to sec Dr. Stanley!” Dana gasped. The girl hesitated and Dana cried imploringly, "Please, I’m Mrs. Stanley. He sent for me.” “Oh, Mrs. Stanley!” The girl's voice changed. “Dr. Robertson left word he was to be called when you arrived.” Dana whispered, “Please hurry.” j “Just a moment.” The alert young woman went to a desk and > lifted the receiver of a house phone. She smiled at someone ! across the desk as she did so. People in hospitals became so ac- j custnmcd to suffering. Things that' meant life and death to other people were routine to them. Scott hurt. He might be dying! And this girl was smiling at someone. Dana's pleading voice reached tfc clerk again. “Oh, won't you hurry!” j The young woman at the phone frowned slightly. She thought,:

“<She's hysterical. Maybe she’s a j mental case. Anyway, she looks like 1 one with her wild eyes and hair flying that way.” Someone on the fifth floor was answering, and she said, “Dr. RobJ ertson is either in 514 or 538. Please j tell him Mrs. Stanley is waiting here.” tt n tt QHE felt relieved when she saw Dr. Robertson coming, his face wearing the profcssiional calm which might mean good news, or news that, was very bad indeed. "Right this way, Mrs. Stanley,” Dr. Robertson said. He was feeling an immense surprise. He hadn't expected her to show up. i And here she was, looking ready to collapse. She probably was the | emotional kind. But even with her hair tumbled, her face white and her pyes strained and anxious, you could see she was a beauty. There probably hadn't been any truth in the report that she was going to marry Ronnie Moore tonight. Garbled stories got out. Only heaven knew how. They got off on the fourth floor. The pungent smell of ether filled the ; long hall. Through open doors I there were glimpses of wan faces : against pillows. In other rooms, relatives and friends grouped about convalescents. In another room. Dana saw a haggard woman keeping a lone watch by a bed. tt tt tt F\R ROBERTSON had brought her to a sunporch. "I’ll come ! back for you,” he said, patting her | hands reassuringly. “It won't be long now.” ‘‘Can't I spe him now?" Dana asked brokenly. He shook his head, his eyes meeting hers in surprise. “It isn't allowed,” he said. ‘‘You ' j "mldn't go to the operating room.” i Then Scott was in the operating room! “Everything’s going to be fine,” Dr. Robertson said. “I’m betting on Scott.” He was betting on Scott! But he didn t know. No one could know until—until later. Dana shuddered, and sank down in a chair. From her position she could watch the hall, could see smiling, serene-faced nurses coming and going. How could they be smiling and serene? Patients were wheeled out on the porch and back to their rooms. The long minutes dragged while Dana sat tensely, anguished, waiting A woman in front of Dana, mid-dle-aged. gray-haired, was tapping her chair with nervous fingers. "Someone sick?" she asked. My husband,” Dana answered. It didn’t occur to her that it was strange to be calling Scott her husband. ' Is he real sick?” the woman persisted. “I'm afraid so,” Dana said. “It was an automobile accident and they Had to operate.” Her voice trembled. The older woman nodded sympathetically. “i wouldn't worry so much. He’ll probably be all right. My daughter’s in the maternity ward. It's her third. She always comes through beautifully, but I can't help but worry. We women are made that way.” The restless tapping of her fingers continued. Marking time, Dana thought with a flash of understanding and sympathy. Men wandered off at times like these. But women stayed on, keeping anxious vigils. Marking time. Smiling, as this mother was

RIGHT in the midst of all the talk about dinner suits winch borrow the tailored details that endear your escort's evening clothes to him, Joseph Paquin has designed this distinctly Victorian and essentially feminine dinner gown. It has a voluminous skirt of faille and a quaint blouse of ecru guipure lace. A rose at the elbow completes the unsophisticated picture. (Upper left). a a a Reminiscent of a bonnet your grandmother might have worn atop her powdered curls when she rode in a sleigh behind a span of prancing horses is the Chanel toque of brown velvet. It's trimmed with brown and green ostrich feathers and would be a complement to a mink or mink-trimmed coat. (Upper right). n tt tt THIS black ensemble by Chanel harks back to the early days of the century. The mannequin might have stepped out of a Manet picture to walk and breathe for a moment or two just to let you ooh and aah over the contrast between the exaggerated shoulders and the trim sleeves and bodice of her gown. A corsage of orchids is pinned on the left shoulder. (Lower).

smiling, as these nurses were smiling. Playing a courageous game. # u u A DOOR had opened somewhere and two nurses were coming down the hall, rolling a stretcher. As they came nearer Dana could see that the patient was a young man. A blond youth of about 18. A wave of ether drifted through the door and she closed her eyes, physically and mentally sick. The woman who had spoken to Dana said, ‘ That must be the boy who was hurt in a dreadful accident. They said the best man in the hospital was operating on him. One of the nurses said he was a wizard with a knife. It was his car tha* crashed into the young fellow's automobile, and they said he was like somebody crazy. Wouldn’t let any one else operate, although he was pretty’ badly shaken up himself. He —” Her voice ceased suddenly. Dana opened her eyes and stared dazed, up into Scott’s face. Without a word Scott lifted her in his arms, holding her close against him. Dana could feel his heart racing. Could feel her own heart, leaping wildly like something released from long imprisonment. Her hand reached up to touch Scott's face incredulously, almost fearfully. “I died," Dana whispered, "many times. And then I looked up and you were here by me.” "You thought I was hurt, Dana? Didn’t Robertson tell you?” “He must have explained to Nancy, but I didn't wait to hear. I thought I had lost you—” her voice broke. a a a SCOTT said gravely, “I was driving in town like the devil, on my way to you, when I met this young chap, on a curve.” “You operated on him,” Dana said wonderinglv. "He had to live,” Scott answered grimly. "He's all right?” Dana asked. "He will be.” Scott said. Dana sighed suddenly with tremendous relief. She was staring at Scott. Scott who was so won- : derful. Who was a wizard with a knife. Who had so much magic in his strong, skilled fingers! His face before her adoring eyes I became a blur, part of a whirling panorama. She saw the amazed j blue eyes of the nervous woman. Then the blue eyes were gone, ; too. Scott felt Dana's arms about him relax, and then she was a dead weight in his arms.

Adolescent Boys Do Not Know What They Want, Jordan Says

Blinsr your puzzles ami problems to Jane Jordan, who will help you understand them by her answers in this column. Dear Jane Jordan —We are two high school girls who woulo like to have some outsider's viewpoint on several matters. We are both what you would say not bad looking and we enjoy good, clean fun. We smoke occasionally, but do not drink. We both have numerous boy friends, but do they ask us for dates? No. What do boys expect from a date? You ask them and they answer, “A girl who doesn’t drink, smoke or pet.” But if yc • don’t smoke, drink nor pet, you’re, a panty-waist. If you say no to these things it’s your last date. So what are the girls to expect? UP A TR 3E. Answer—You must realize that adolescent boys do not know what they want in a girl. They are barely emerging from a stage of

social and e velopment in which they looked upon girls as a nuisance. Those who have dealt most with young boys find that they seldom include girls as an ideal in life toward which to work, but that girls do include boys in their plans.

***" Jpg Be. i

Jane Jordan

Naturally, custom and tradition leave a deep imprint upon the minds of both boys and girls. Their ideal of the opposite sex is identified with conduct which will procure social approval. When asked what he prefers in a girl, a boy will inevitably specify conduct of which his mother approves, if he iikes her, or he may name conduct of which she disapproves, if he dislikes her. These boys who tell you they

prefer a girl whose behavior is socially acceptable, speak the truth. But that does not inhibit their response to what is strange or forbidden. Their natural curiosity will lead them to seek in girls the very conduct which they condemn. When desire for experience comes into conflict with cultural forms, you can’t expect consistency in youth. The process of adjusting pleas-ure-seeking tendencies to the social demands of the environment is not easy. Yet if it did not take place each individual would develop into an impossible person —selfish, impulsive, irresponsible, with a complete disregard of the rights of others. Your cue is to understand the boy’s problem and side-step his bungling attempts to involve you in anti-social behavior without making him feel too much like a barbarian. A reasonably conventional girl with charm, enthusiasm and sympathy has a greater chance to succeed with boys than she who orders her life without regard to what the majority accept as admirable behavior. # Dear Jane Jordan—Why is it that just when a girl starts having dates with a boy whom she thinks is a lot of fun, the boy begins to get sentimental when all she wants to be is a pal. That’s the way I feel about it, but none of the boys I know seems to feel that way. What’s wrong? E. M. L. Answer—Nothing is wrong. The boy only is trying to express feelings to which he is unaccustomed. His training has not taught him to repress himself, whereas yours tends to make you afraid of love-making. To be sympathetic with his feelings without overstepping the bounds which he himself expects you to observe is a difficult trick for a very young girl. It is easier to strike a good balance as you grow older and more accustomed to a companionship with boys.

Lovely Arms Full, But Not With Muscle Proper Exercises Can Be Aid to Thin or Fat Limbs. BY ALICIA HART ' Beautiful arms are symmetrically round and full, but not muscular. ’ says Donald Loomis, trainer of Hollywood stars. “There's not much a woman can do to improve the shape of her hands (however, gripping exercises tend to enlarge them\ but if she plans her exercises carefully it is quite possible to develop scrawny arms or to reduce fat ones. ‘‘A thin arm can be made round and smooth and graceful by exercises that are vigorous and concentrated. The idea is to draw a lot of blood to this portion of the anatomy. to exhaust the muscles as quickly as possible, then to relax and give them plenty of time to rest. “On the other hand, repetitious exercises, stretched over long periods of time will tear down fatty tissues. In other words, such exercises burn up fat without developing muscle. For instance, a long distance runner who jogs along for

Is big and muscular. “A good exercise to develop thin arms is done with a bar bell or some other kind of heavy weight. Lift it up and down over the head 10 times twice a day for two weeks. Then increase the number of lifts to 18. “To reduce fat arms, use free arm exercises with no weights. Swing your arms in circles, moving back and forth, in and out. rapidly, with many repetitions.”
