Rita cried hersel , into complete exhaustion. She heard the old Colonial clock in . the hall strike one, then two, then three finally just as the . sun was reaching long, thin fin gers over the misty foothills and down between the even rows of . waxy orange trees sleep came. The warm, fresh sunlight . flooding in the windows, the sight of the long, rolling foot- . hills sleeping Immovably in the distance, poured new courage - into Rita's soul. She felt It , tingle through her strong, young body, giving her strength to meet the challenge that only a few hours ago had seemed in surmountable. Rita took a cold shower and dressed quickly. As she stood surveying herself in her full . length mirror a sardonic smile crept over her face. The last time she had worn this new grey tweed suit was the day that she had left for Now York. Her heart had been fairly bursting with high hopes,' she , was embarking on a great mis . sion, a liberator going forth In the interest of the community I Now she was Just a girl, ". a country girl, girding for a lone fight against a world too busy with its own affairs to stop and . lend a sympathetic ear to her Bmall troubles. She lifted her small chin a little, a spark of fire seemed to suddenly strike in the depth of her soft brown eyes, there was even a suggestion of grim de termination In the movement of " her fingers as she tucked wisps ' of red-gold hair under her green felt hat. Picking up her suitcase she . closed her door softly behind her and started down the hall that : led past her father's room. She had closed the door before she went to bed and for an Instant ' she felt an inner urge to open it again, to walk among her father's things, his guns on the wall, his bookshelves that sag ged under their weight, she knew the pungent odor of sweet pipe smoke still lingered there. She put the thought from her I A 1 -,.v oirtuun miss muarca tfincknoy, one of the women civil service guards at the South Weymouth Mass., naval air station, took the firing position of an anti-aircraft machine gun on the station grounds where 25 women replaced men by taking over their duties of pa trolling, guarding and checking the area.

Good-bye to Jeb Quickly she fixed herself a bite of breakfast and ate it, mechanically, standing by the sink. Glancing at her wristwatch she saw that it was only forty minutes until her train pulled into the village. Dr. Burrows had told her to leave everything just as it was and he would see that things were taken care of. Meth odically she checked the doors and windows and left. As she went across the wide carpet of green lawn toward the garage she saw a familiar object coming down the road. She could always tell Jeb's old car long before he reached the house as he wove a zig-zag path from one side of the road to the other stopping at each mall box. Each time the car started up it sent a white plume of dust rising in its wake. At first Rita thought she'd wait to Hay goodbye and then she thought the tears might come goodbyes were always so hard for her. Resolutely she thought, much better that 1 wave a friendly goodbye as I pass, throw him a friendly smile, he will be about stopped at the Jar vis place then, two houses down the road. Swiftly she threw open the garage doors and backed out the station wagon, wheeling it around suddenly so that the while crushed, stones in the driveway beat a metallic tattoo under the fenders. Out the drive way and down the road she sped. Jeb had just pulled up in front of the Jarvis place. Rita bit her lip. She was abreast the old car now, Jeb was smiling and wav ing, a letter In his hand. Rita smiled back and waved a friend ly hand it was over and Jeb would never know what a Strug gle it really was. Quickly she wiped two hot tears from her eyes. . The village stroet was almost deserted as she drove between the rows of towering pepper trees that shaded the dozen small buildings that comprised, the business section." She turned sharply at a sign that read, "Miller's Garage" and the car rolled to a stop inside the little structure. A greasy, smiling face appeared from under a car. "Hello, Miss Ralston, what can I do for you?" "I'm going up to Frisco for a while, Don. Would you look af ter old Betsy for me? Maybe you can sell the old bus. The tires are almost new, I hate to use them with the army needing rubber. Someone told me they're buying station wagons at Fort Dade' and tickled to death to get them." "I'll look into it for you and let you know," Don Miller said. Rita walked briskly along the familiar, sleepy village street the short two blocks to the rail way station. The train was at ready in as she bought her tick et and got aboard. Alone in San Francisco Old Jeb scratched his head in quiet wonderment as Rita's car raced by. He was looking hard at the letter he held In his ADD: Two Girls it a Man Ch. 11 hand. With a series of sharp jerks his old car started and traveled the short distance from the Jarvis place to the Ralston's mail box. Dropping the letter slowly in the box he muttered half aloud, "More advertisin' from that durned New York bank." ' It was late afternoon when Rita's train pulled into the busy terminal at Frisco. Like a great river suddenly overflowing its banks, streams of hurrying tra velers were flowing in all di rections. Rita mounted the wide stairway that led to the cab stand and was soon riding through familiar streets that led to the Chatham Club. It was a quiet, homey place, that had been established for single working girls. She had stayed there before and loved her room that overlooked the bay.

Rita remember ed now how good it used to seem to get home from her work at the Taylor Publishing Company, out of the constant droning din of typewriters and huge print ing presses to the quiet of her little room. Things were just as she had hoped. The girl who had been renting Rita's old room had left two days before to go back to Washington to take a govern ment job and she could have it. Mrs. Chatham was a round, motherly soul and welcomed Rita warmly. "You coming back to your old job, Honey?" "I don't know," Rita replied. Rita closed her door and toss ed her suitcase on the bed. It was almost dark, only a trace of soft, faded light flooded in the windows. The familiarity of it all warmed her : heart - as she stood looking down upon the great city with its countless lights now flicking on. She drew Clark's wire from' her purse and in the almost faded last glow of light read again the short, terse words that stabbed so painfully at her weary heart. j To be continued .
