She has the most unboly wr.y of taking the things one loves nost and making the giver glad he's riving. 1 haven't seen her since ber redding, but I understand he so last the signal lights ran Into 1 single flare of red. blue and green "No," she repeated as they came out on the Island, "people are divorced for other reasons." "Not really." chortled Estos. "It they are us newsmen don't bear about them." The cab skimmed the tree-lined avenues, crossed a bridge and scur ried along a dyke that rimmed ths bay-shore. To the left the airport buildings blazer like a fiesta city, and In the Held, small ships arose and settled like queer species of night-flying moths. They pulled up before the term! nal, rushed Into the bulldog when their tickets awaited them, then out onto the field where the trl-motoi express waited In the tremuloui glow of flood lights. Marian felt a pulse of ezcltemeni beat In her throat. The sheer beaut) of the silver ship with Its wide spread wings, the roar of powei from the testing motors, erased thf shabby scene of the court room anc the later news of tba tragedy from her mind. She settled back Into the comfort able seat, adjusted her belt for east on the upward swing of the ship beard the sharp slam of the cabin door, saw the co pilot Join the pilot In the control cabin. She accepted "There's a guy trying to make the ihlpl" ipollcd lior like everyone else. There, how do you like the new lress?" Marian had donned a lllao col red angora frock, pulled a beige ingora hat over her hair and slipped Into a beige lapln swaggor conL , "Stunning," declared Anne with tnthusfnBm. "I'm so gtad you're getting some sense about clothes. You should take a fow tips from this Silver friend of yours. Lon's the kind of a follow every woman's bound to make a try for, and you're going to have to learn you can't al ways depend upon your hair and eyea to got you by. You're too prac tical, you and your plalu tailored elothes." . "That from you," chldcd Marian, "you and your uniforms." "But my Albert s a doctor aud I'm only a nurse. Besides 1 have dimples. With those 1 could save a man's life aud nevor be given credit for it There's a born . . , and tbe buzzer. Mere are your gloves . , need any cash?" Anne followed her to the door. "Oh, and Ian. If linn, Ion bolda his own, he'll be under my care, thoy won't tnke a chance on moving him tonight." Marian found the cab at the curb. Estes anil his camera Inside. "And lust ns I pulled the quilt up to my chin," he was lamenting, "brr went the telephone." "You were lucky," laughed Ma rian, stowing her bag alongside bis camera. "My chin hasn't scon a quilt for so long. It would prntmhly think It was an eclipse of the moon." AS the cab careened around the corner fcsios spoke. "Say Ian, what's this yarn about. I thought this mnrrlnpo was one of those made In-Hraven affairs." "It was. but thej didn't keep It there and this hemljpher. is rough on marital unions." "Another woman?" "I don't think Cliff knew there were othnr women." "Another man. then?" "N no," she paused ss the rah ihnt inlo Ihe entuary tube and hiolci along the floor of the hsy cotton for her cars from the trim itownrdoss In olive drab, then looked about her.

Her first reaction upon recognizing Lon Casad, wai amazemont that she had forgotten her engagement with him the fol lowing ovenlng. She hadn't even loft word that she wouldn't be there And then camo wonder at bis pres ence on the alrtleld. Had he received a call from home and was flying east? But no be would have gone south to Los Angeles, first, then east, nut why . . . and how . . . ah looked down as though she might bo able to tlnd some answer to her bewildered questioning In the dark waters of the' hay, girdled by (he Hull's of the cities Hint rimmed Its shores. She would tolephono Anne as soon as she had ilulshed with her assign ment. Anno would know. Lon was staying with Doctor Steele.
