"And if, as seems like ly t.hn same man stole Mrs. Bride well's car, he sped himself to hia own punishment. A punishment considerably more drastic than, the jaw would impose. ' "That is so," agreed the chap lain. "The ways of providence are Strange." jnid 1 imagine it, or -was he a : little impressed that providence had taken a hand in his revenger ' We entered the club by the door of the guest wing. My rooms were the first on .the right. 1 asked them both in, but the illumination of the corridor must have reminded the chaplain of his embarrassing plight, for he declined and patter ri Rtiffiv toward the rear of the v,nding.

Dan goes out two or three nights a week to some stag affair and she takes her car and drives for hours by herself. "Do you think shes happy?" I ventured. "Who is?" She uttered a mirthless laugh. "Which reminds me, we're revel ing tonight beach party. You're Invited. Hope It proves better than last night's fray, which was a bore Oh, and wait till you see what we've gotl It just happenec in to see its friend Sandra, and it's too cute for words ... I saw what she meant that night. It was a man. A dark, thickset man with a little mustache and a stagey sort of good looks. He bow ed over my hand and murmured 'Chawmcd." Then he threw back his bath robe to display his trunk-clad form and swelled a hairy chest. We were all visibly Impressed. Julia clasped her hands and gazed at him with starry eyes. Adam let his Jaw sag In unpleasant resem blance to an Idiot child. Gerald Beaufort inhaled until his face was scarlet and seemed about to pin his shoulders together In the back. 'The word is virile." said Felicia Bridewell irrepressibly In my left ear. Only Sandra, Jeff and the chap- Iain seemed unamused. Jeff, it- fact, glowered; or at least I thought, so at the time. He was so somber normally that it was difficult to tell when he was actually displeas ed. He peeled off his sweat shirt rolled It into a tight ball, tossed it on the sand and marched deliber ately into the lake. I should not have been surprised to see him wade out until his head was immersed but he jackknlfed suddenly and reappeared swimtng with vicious strokes that seemed to reach for and clutch the far horizon. I thought for a moment thtt Julia was going to follow him but with an effort that was obvious to me. at least, she turned her back) to the lake and began rearranging f the baskets and bottles which wel had unloaded from the cars. I 'Go on and swim," she said to all offers of assistance. "We won't eat for a long time yet, and I'd advise everyone to swim before they start eating. We don't want any casualties ..." We had penetrated deep Into the reservation for this party. Like the mossy old joke, we had turned in at the road marked OFFICIAL VEHICLES ONLY, passed the sign that read VISITORS NOT ALLOW ED BEYOND THIS POINT and parked next to POSITIVEY NO ADMITTANCE. Adam had replied vaguely to my questions. The sign, he said, had something to do with summer maneuvers, which were concluded: but they also preserv ed the reservation from casual pic nickers and resultant brush fires. A hundred feet from the road was the lake, rimmed by a clean white beach as far as you could see in either direction, interrupt ed only, in the immediate fore ground, by the wreck of an olfl coal barge that had been cast up to the water's edge by one 01 tne storms that, periodically convulse the Great Lakes. Perceptibly Nervous We climbed onto it when we had tired of swimming and sat, wet and cool and contented, swinging our legs over the shallow water that lapped at the weatherbeaten hull and sampling the contents of one of the big thermos bottles.
