BEGIN HERE TODAY iy Helens Derrik, young and ambitions, Ras recently been promojed from the selling fores to take charge of the womem’s sportswear department of Helvig’s store. One of Ber best customers, Sandra Leigh, invites Helens te join a week. end party at Crest Mountain Ledge. Although others in the party are strane gers to Helena, she soon feels at ease and enjoys herself. Bhe is particularly atiracted by handsome Peter Henderson whe lives in a mearby town. Awake before the others, Helena goes . for an early morning swim. Peter joins her on the beach. Almost immediately he tells her Ne is in love with her.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY

CHAPTER 11 OU mustn't, Peter,” Helena protested, withdrawing from

watching from the lodge.” He laughed. “That's encouraging,” he told her. “If that's your only reason for not letting me kiss -you, then I'm a cinch!” Then his tone ‘grew suddenly serious. “Look here, Helena. I haven't been -able to sleep for 10 minutes straight since we left each other last night. I'd heard of that happening to a fellow when he met the right girl —but I'd never really believe it. Last night I told you I was in love with you: And it still goes in a chilly and unromantic dawn.” “It's an awfully short time in which to decide that” Helena smiled, wondering if he could detect the pounding of her heart beneath the thin white swim suit. “But I'm not afraid of the decision,” Peter answered quickly. “Not even if it was a little quick on the trigger. I've met lots of girls, | Helena, but I've never had one hit | me like this. Not even near it.” “That's nice of you. I-—I'll admit I feel the same way, Peter. But . . .” she broke off with a whimsical, helpless smile. A scant second later she regretted the admission, for Peter held her firmly by the shoulders and kissed her hard.

HAT settles it!” he said. “If he said. “If you feel just as I do, then there's only one answer.” “W-what's that?” asked Helena breathlessly. r “That's the good old-fashioned institution of marriage, darling.” He took her wrist and turned back toward the lodge. ‘Come on, let's wake the gang and tell them!” ,But Helena pianted ‘her small feet solidly on the path and protested. “No, Pefer . . .please! Not yet, anyway.” He turned to her

again, and she went on slowly:|

“We can’t do a thing like that. ‘We don't know anything about each other. Tomorrow it might all be different.” “I don’t believe that, and neither do you,” he said, meeting her level gaze. “I'm in Jove with you. I can care for you comfortably. There's nothing more to know about me. You're young and beautiful—and that's all I want to know

“Darling, if we're to be married you mustn’t refer to me as Mr. Henderson. It's Peter. And after we've

right?” Helena faltered. “All right?” repeated Sandra. “What difference would it make what I thought? But, since you've

.asked me, I'll tell you I think it's even better than all right. ‘And I'm excited about being the first to congratulate Peter and wish you happiness. I am the first?” The Leigh girl's enthusiasm warmed Helena’s heart. Somehow she had feared that Sandra might not quite approve, that she would resent Helena's coming with the “gang” as a stranger, as a girl out of Helvig's, and winning Peter Henderson’s interest so quickly. Now she realized how absurd this feeling was. Sandra Leigh was too genuine, too interested in people as human beings rather than as representatives of cliques to show resentment. Her delight at the news was instantly apparent, obviously sincere. . “When does it happen?” Sandra wanted to know, Peter grinned and reached for Helena’s hand. “Right away, doesn’t it?” “W-why, I'haven’t thought—" She ‘looked at Sandra helplessly. “Peter,” said the other girl, “I want to make a suggestion. It’s that you very literally go and jump into the lake. I'll help Helena make her plans.” ” = ” TERY well, Miss Leigh . . .” He bowed low, ‘dropped his beach robe, and sped down toward the lake. At its edge he leaped an amazing distance ‘and struck’ the water neatly. “And that,” said Sandra smiling, “ls the way he does everything.

I'm not surprised he’s going into |

matrimony the same way.”

“I might even fib a little and tell her you've known Peter longer than you have. One

thing’s sure—when she sees ‘Peter |} she'll agree with you. ' No woman,

can resist that charm.” Helena looked out toward the lake, saw Peter threshing powerfully toward shore, Yes, her. motiler would ‘approve of him. She might ittle shocked at the sudden

week-end like a wedding.” She faced {
