Chapter 25
PHONE CALL
CiOULD Guy throw any light on
' It? she wondered. She glanced
at the Ivory and silver clock on her
table. Still another ten minutes be
fore dinner. She began to hurry,
finished dressing quickly, clasped on
her father's turquoise pendant and
ran hastily down stairs.
After seven, he had said, and It
was now ten minutes to eight. If aha
rang up now, she would catch htm,
ahe could tell him of the new de
velopment before her father got
down or Daphne Sumera arrived.
The light was out In the library
but Alison did not wait; she ran to
the desk and switched on the read
ing lamp, caught up the telephone
book and flipped over the pages. Dun
das Doctor Dundas here It was
an address down in the East end;
ahe dialed the number with a finger
that shook slightly as It fumbled
for the right slot. What a long time
the bell took ringing!
"Hullo?"
Somehow ahe had expected a maid
or Doctor Dundaa Instead of Guy
himself.
"Hullo? Is that you? Alison Rode
speaking. Listen. 1'va only a few
moments but 1 wanted to tell you
Bom e thing funny has happened 1
can't talk about it now, she's dining
here and may come In at any minute
and the aervanta might near. Out
can we meet tomorrow? It's urgent.
Yes! Lunch, then, the same place,
same time? All right. Will you pick
me up here? Yes, but I think lt'd be
better If we met Just round the cor
ner. Do you know? By the end of
Ebury Street ... 1 thought 1 ought
to let you know after what you said
today. Well, thanks most awfully.
Goodnight"
Alison set the receiver back. In
tense relief, to have someone to turn
to in these troubles. Perhapd if she
told him about that other bit of
knowledge, the kiss, he would see
more clearly than she could herself
what was the right thing to do.
She went out and upstairs to the
drawing room to wait for Daphne
Burners.
BEHIND her. In the library, the
heavy wine-colored damask cur
tains parted. Daphne came out of
the window recess quietly and rather
slowly. Crossing to the table, she
took a clgaret out of the silver box.
She had a very long holder of am
ber, bound with gold one of Robert
Rede's presents; she fitted the clg
aret Into It with cartful precision,
all her thoughts elsewhere. When
ahe had lit it, she went out of the
room and up the stairs to the draw
ing room, hor face without expres
sion and her eyes no more than very
faintly amused.
Dinner passed off so calmly that
the girl began to hope that her
fat hor had listened to her after all.
Daphne accepted her apology sweat-
iy.
"Of course. 1 quite understand. I
.often do it myself. You didn't notice
the time. It doesn't matter in the
least; we can shop tomorrow In
stead, can't we?" Not a single ques
tion about that lunch, not a word
about the honeymoon plan! Before
the evening was over Alison found
herself wondering If she had matte
too much fuss.
It was not until the next day at
one o'clock that anything happened.
THEY were all three up In the
boudoir, looking at patterns and
approving Daphne's Ann) choice.
"Rather nice," Robert always
agreed amicably on such points. He
knew nothing of furnishings and
cared less. He took a chocolate from
the box beside Daphne and said, "I
say, these are good! Your own mak
ing?" "I made them specially for you
They're all the nutty kind that you
like."
"You're a marvel!" He offered
them to Alison, who could say
truthfully that they were tho best
that sha had ever eaten. But she
sighed. They had been two hours
choosing! Daphne seemed to like to
keep them both there, centered on
her affairs.
But tft'o hours of such compara
tive calm that Alison really felt
quite safe when, at once, sne giancea
at hei wrist watch, just back from
the jeweller's and said casually, "I
do love that last pattern. It's the
nicest one you've tried. I must rush
off now, I've got to lunch but 1 prom
ise you I won't be late this time."
Her voice was cordial, for she was
thinking, "In two or three minutes,
I'll be seeing him again! Ob, what a
comfort!"
Comfort? A tfny stab of doubt fol
lowed the thought. Was It really no

Daphne came out quietly and slowly.
more than friendliness, this longing
to see him. tell him all abimt her
troubles? After all, In mere time, he
was a stranger, yet she did not think
of him like that! It seemed the most
natural thing In the world to tell
him what she would not have told
anyone else.
"'Bye, darling." She waved to
Daphne and ran to the door.
"Alison!" Hor father spoke
gravely.
"Yes?" With her hand on tho door,
she turned, "What?"
"I want a word with you."
She came hack Into ths room
slowly, her face growing pale. What
now?
"Did you lunch jesterda with
that young architect fellow, whats-bls-name?'
Robert Rede was al
ways simple and direct.
"Guy Wcsturn?" Alison could not
help a glance at Daphne, but she
was sitting on tl:s flrsr turn ins
over her lapful of patterns, her face
totally expressionless. Robert went
on sternly.
"You're off to lunch with him
again today." It was a statement, not
a question.
"Yes." She could not guess how he
knew hut she threw It back de
fiantly. "Well, you're not to! You're not
to mce him again. I forbid it. Under
stand?" Ho put thnt quietly enough
yet between them that special tone
had always meant an order that
must he obeyed.
"But why? I must know why!"
Alison was white now as the wall be
hind her.
"Because I've found out all about
him," said her father. "And he's not
a fit person for you to know."

VISUAL INSTRUCTION
ASSURED FOR CCC IN
IHE WORLD AT ITS WORST
By GLUYAS WILLIAMS
CAMP WIMER.fSpI.) Visual In
struction for all CCO boys In Medford
district camps Is assured for the
summer period according to word ie
celved here from district co-ordlnalor
D. E. Wledman, who has arranged to
make Medford headquarters a clear
ing house for the exchange of educa
tional films between companies and
all available sources of supply.
Dr. Wledman, who has been grad
ually building up the number of ed
ucational films available at head
quarters for distribution to camps,
recently received permission to place
25 sets of forestry films at the dls- I
posal of Medford camps. He now has
enough films on hand to permit each
camp to show four reels once a week.
Other film sources tapped Include
the Bureau of Mines and Oregon
State College.
Progressive Medford district pro
vided for weekly movies in every
camp as early as December, 1034, but
most of the pictures shown so far
have been purely recreational. Dr.
Wledman's dream of following the
path blazed by President Maynard
Hutch Ins, when that youthful educa
tor Instituted visual instruction at
Chicago University ,1s Just now materialized.
The district has been divided Into
zones for the efficient Interchange of
films so that everybody assigned to
a Medford camp will see some phase
of the drama of American Industry
displayed on the silver screen once
a week.
