TENSION Chapter 9 . Most girls think of marriage more or less vaguely from the time they begin to mature. Philosophers tell us it Is the mating and the home-making
instinct which causes them to look upon every likable boy of their acquaintance as a possible husband father of a family that in their maturing minds is nothing more than the
bisque dolls of childhood come to life. Like every other normal young girl, Patty and thought and talked of marrying, pictured herself In one of the new little white painted houses that all the young couples of Wissakeagan promptly rented and occupied. But that was before she went East to college. From her last high school year until this moment, she had been so busy all such ideas had been crowded out of her mind. Now, suddenly the Wissakeagan boy
and the typical Wissakeagan house were revolting. , ' Millie, looking up, read her sister's thoughts. "You see, it's just as mother said," she remarked, rolling up her own sew

Involuntarily, Patty shuddered. She adored dancing with Basil and skating with Jimmy. But she did not want to think of anything beyond mere friendship.
"It's not that" she began, feeling a

gone off with Eleanor Collins back up that supposition? They why shouldn't she take what the gods offered, and divorce Dick as he evidently wanted her to and marry Keith? That was the way that people did; marriage was a merry-go-round, and you changed husbands and wifes the way children change horses at the end of a ride. The siren on a motor car aroused her, and she looked up just as a car shot past them. There were four men in it; one of them turned and looked back as the 'car flew by.

"Don't' be afraid I'm not going to kiss you," he told her, quietly enough, but there was a curious tensity in his voice. "Not that I wouldn't give the world to do it but I'll wait. You're going to care for me, Sally you. the wife who's 'not exactly married', as you told me that day I met you again after so many years." . Her thoughts went whirling. This wasn't jight she was married, she lold herself. Yes, married to a man who went off with somebody else, an imp in hor mind retorted. Well, that "didn't matter.

"So I noticed," Sally retorted. He made love to her in one breath and expressed his liking for someone else in the next! "Glad you did." he answered, starting the car.

We went on a party with the crowd last night, and Lee urged that she come along; wants to paint her, I believe." Sally said nothing. She didn't want Keith to make love to her but she didn't want him to make love to Pats, either! Tomorrow Signals in the Dark

"But am, and even though I ike having your arms around me, it isn't right and it just can't be. So please let me go, and don't ever do this again." He looked down at her longingly; forcing herself to meet his eyes, she was forced, too, to battle with the temptation to let him make love to her. Dick had told her to flirt, if she wanted to and she wanted to, but she couldn't somehow. "You mfan this, Sally that you and I can't be anything more than Just friends?" he asked, finally.

Even the big premium. which such wheat commands this year, because of its scarcity, couldn't induce us to use any other.
