Tie two days passed serenely Viczl There had ne-er been such I'm and snnsnts. The food was kurfloas.

She sat on i ruck, both ru.'t Imots stretched tbtfnre her, drinking coffee from HMumeled cup. Her fair hair was n.M; there was a deep npricot m her rounded cheeks. The nale jpiijo had alighted from the eastern -iaifew weeks ago cou'd scarcely iiiTt been recognized in this bronfced I To!

Itwuiweet to bo admired, to be u.f this ""eeable group. didn't this be enomrh for her? Why should her thoughts go harking back to one man, out of all the world, who bad flouted her? Frank drove on the homeward drive and the three Insisted that she sit beside him in the front seat. Hilda wns heavily tactful about this: Kaih erine didn't mind. They were nice peo ple nnd they liked her and showed It. She glowed in the atmosphere of ad miration and easy laughter. Frank didiVt talk much he wasn't given to idle chatter but every now and then he rave her an eloquent look. lie had to give most of his atten tion to the driving, however. There were traitorous dips in this canon road. Sometimes a sheer drop appeared on their left without an instant warn ing. But Frank had a svre hand on the wheel, Katharine wasn't afraid. They took the journey in leisurely fashion. It was the way, Hilda ex plained, they liked to travel. That night they camped on the edge of the desert under tho stars. Frank had his guitar with him he'd been in a college orchestra and he played "Parlez mol d'nmour" with a good deal of feeling. The starB and the music and the camp fire nil made rn unforgettable- scene. Life would be so simple, Knthnrlne argued with herself, if one coidd fid low the line of least resistance. She mijrht, for example, marry Frcnk Mil lard nnd bear him fine children and love him quite uncritically and make a sort of picnic of existence. But she had muddled up her life before she met him. She liked him a lot he wns as likable as a big Newfoundland or a friendly child. But love? Well, Bho 1 h:;d known that once; It hadn't been exnclly pleasant. It had been all dizzy heights and nwful depths. She would j try to steer clear of it in the future. AH of this she thought ns Frank strummed the plaintive mus'c and the smoke of IKrk's nnd Ilild.i's cigarets i c.irled toward tho red glow of the campfire. Evelyn Vincent was asleep, I propped rnther uncomfortably against ! the sc t. cushions of the cnr. Presently j they all untied their bedding rolls and j said yawning good nights. The women had the tent. Di:-k nnd 1 rank arrang- ed their beds by the fire. Katharine did not elrt-p for a long time. A mood of wakefulness was upon j her. and, for the life of her. sleep j would not come. She could see one great, unwinking Wr.e star through the tent flnp. Miss incent snored, and Hilda stirred uneasily in br sleep. I The music ecroed in Katharine s bi n in. I "Speak - to - me - of - love..." After a long time her eyes closed and she breathed easily and quietly. There were tenrs on her cheeks. No one was movini: about when she awoke. Dressin: hastily, miming her ivory comb through her flyaway curls, she ghiiiced out to see that Flunk and his brother lay in the relaxed and rr.ther touching abandon cf persons deeply asleep. Restless. Katharine strolled about. She needed exercise. tdu tuld horse'" Before the snn came up she would have a brief walk. Jnst ns f'nt mesquitc bush In the middle dis tance. . . She walked along, absorbed in her thoughts. Tomorrow she would be back nt Sil?ncia; the pleasant, easy life would begin again, with sun drenched days filkd with sketching nnd music and hrirho. imi-I (' hro' in the library of the adobe house It was not a bad life, but for a young, restless, enger girl it was not every thing. She glanced over her rhoulder. Per haps she had Iwtter be turninc back. Someone would waken nnd miss her, pei haps be alarmed. But when she, looked in the direction from which she j had come she could 'see nothing of the car or tho peaked tent or thr sleeping men. Her heart heating a little faster, she whirled. Incrensimr her pace. Her feef. in their russet boots, squeaked in the sand, slinpin: vMth every step. Oh, but she'd see them nil In n minute.
