Dan had taken the precaution to note landmarks, a pair of twin

words. Afterward there would be plenty of time to say all that must be explained and understood between them. Corey knew, too well, that there was no need for him to say any- . When they finally had| _ reached the lodge and warmth and security, he stopped and thrust out

- a hand toward Dan.

“Thanks, old man,” he said. He

~ wore his wide grin, but his blue

eyes were narrowed. “You saved our lives again. The third time— for Sally—and the third time is the : charm, you know.” “That's all right,” Dan said

"briefly. He accepted Corey's hand.

“Forget it. You’d have done the same.” But they knew, all three of

: them, that that was not so.

“Well, so long,” Corey dropped Dan’s hand. “I want to get thawed out. You two probably have forgot you're nearly frozen. You won’t miss me.” His laugh was short. At his own expense. For Corey knew that

“Sally, my sweet.” He looked at her a brief moment. She was sweet, she was too good for him, he knew that now; but he could make her one last gift, leave her with one kind thought for him. “The best Dan, of

Bhe turned to Dan, her dark eyes “Softly shining. “I don’t know how to thank you,” “To think you would risk your own life, Dan, to come after us. To think I ever stopped believing in you, even for a little while.” “I don’t blame you for that,” Dan said. “I ran away. But I had my I meant to come back

. some day, when I could pay back

f all that I owed to you and your

father, Sally.” ‘Then he knew about that! Some-

~~ one else had told him. Sally began - to understand a little.

“Corey told you—that last night, before you went away!” sha said.

- That was what Corey had meant

when he said he had tried fo outsmart Dan. Poor Corey, who had ° thought he had to win, no matter “what means he might use. Dan nodded. “He told m= a lot of things,” he said grimly. “But we won’t talk about that ncw. It’s all past, all done. There are so ‘many far more important things we have to talk about now, Sally.

- Do you think you can get off those damp clothes, hop into a warm bath, get dressed again, and meet

me in a half hour—or is that too soon, darling?” “It won't be nearly soon enough!”

Sally dimpled at him.

” # ”

N half an hour to the minute, refreshed and rested, Sally met Dan. He had found a nook in the big living room of the lodge that was deserted. A window seat built just for two, looking out on the beautiful white world that was calm and serene now that the storm had abated. “There’s so much to say,” Sally said, with a sigh, as Dan took her

..-hands and drew her down beside

him. “Where shall we begin, Dan?” “At the end,” he answered smilingly. “Nothing else matters, does

Sally “who put bravery of heart above everything else. “I was afraid to tell you the truth. In the beginning, Dan, I was afraid if you knew it was I—and my father— who wanted to help you that you would refuse help.

That was what Corey told me that night. And that you were engaged to him.” “Poor Corey,” Sally said. It was easy to forgive him now, to understand. Though he had broken his word to her, nearly ruined their lives.» “I told you that the past is gon~,” Dan said. “The future is all that matters. I had ah: offer today, Sally. Beside the Olympics. That's not what I want, after all. I'm going

He drew her to him, gently, yet forcefully. He found her lips. That first sweet kiss pledged their faith in one another more bindingly, more truly than any words. “There’s only one thing, Dafi,” Sally’s dark eyes looked up into his. the soft color flooding her lovely face, “are you sure that you bhelieve in me now, that I'm the kind of girl you want?” For answer, Dan kissed her again. “You are the only girl I want,” he said. “Queen of my heart.” ~ “And you're the king,” Sally said. “King of skis. For—to me—ski’s the limit, darling!”

WEIGH APPEALS IN FRAUD CASE

Three ~ Continental Credit Defendants Undecided On Action.

Three defendants under sentence in Federal Court in the Continental Credit Corp. mail fraud case, today were undecided whether to file appeals from their convictions. Two other defendants, John W. Moore Sr. and his son, John W. Moore Jr., under sentence of seven and five years, respectively, filed notice in| Federal Court yesterday that they would appeal to the U. S. Circuit Court of Appealsat Chicago. In the appeal notices, filed by Clinton H. Given, attorney for the Moores, 12 grounds were set out charging error by the court and insufficient evidence to warrant convictions. The notices said the court had erred in overruling a motion for arrested judgment filed. in both cases and in refusing to direct a verdict for the defendants. The notices asserted further that the District Attorney failed to prove allegations concerning filing of a bankruptcy- petition in Buffalo in 1935 by John W. Moore Sr. and that the allegations “had no bearing on the guilt or innocence of either defendant.” Both the Moores and the three others convicted are at liberty under $15,000 bond until Tuesday, the deadline for serving - notice of appeal.
