BYNOPS18; Ey pretending that she was married to Hex Moore, the airman, Laurie Moore ha got her self into a mese. Rex, supposed to be lost in the Pacific hat returned. To hold his job with Mark Albery, plane manufacturer, he and Laurie mutt keep up the pretense. The worst part it that Rex rube Laurie the wrong way consistently. Chapter Nina WORSE TANGLE LAURIE had made a kind of a cult for Rex, ai she had made for Mark Albery, tu her hero-worshipping way. She bad heard so much about htm from Belle Mason, who adored him and would have been his wife, If she had lived. So much that she had seemed to know blm. His gaiety, his kindness. His bursts of temper, that were over In a moment; bis restlessness when he was bound to earth. As she had told him a few min utes ago, when she thought of how she and Glad had been saved and bad prospered because of blm. be cause of her at It rat Innocent mas querade, she had told herself that, If he knew, be would forgive her. He wouldn't mind. But, then, of course, she had thought he was dead, and she bad felt the dead would understand. How be must have changed! She remembered that be bad been blind, and her warm heart went out to him for a moment. And that he had prob ably saved her life the other day. But why must he force her Into this odious position? Surely, be could have found a way out? The logical part of her mind saw the Justice of It But bis last words bad stung her on the raw "When the time comes to pay, you don't like It, and you squeal!" Ho was a selfish brute and he de spised her. And she hated blm for coming back and upsetting her life. She would pay and she wouldn't squeal. But she would punish him, all the same, for those Insulting words. In the morning Laurie could al most have thought the episode had been a dream. She had slept sur prisingly soundly after the shock and stir of the encounter. There was no word from Rex Moore. By the post only a scrawl from Gladys, saying that their tour was being shortened, and she would probably be back In London In the middle of May, A "rest" was indi cated. She hoped to goodness It wouldn't be for long. Laurie waited, feeling a fool, a few minutes beyond her time before she left for the office, which was within an easy walk. But nothing happened. So she sot forth and did her day's work as usual, following the routine with a kind of Intelligently vacant mind. Nobody said anything to her. KvidenUy the news of Rex Moore's return had not filtered through from above. Mark Albery did not send for her. She bad half expected that he would. When she got home, Rex Moore met her on the pavomenU "1 found out when you loft the office," he said. "I've been with Al bery nearly all day. Everything went off flrsSrate. May I come up with you, Mrs. Moore?" HIS grim chuckle had the usual effect on her. "I suppose so," she said coldly. "Are you determined to go on rub bing it In?" He did not answer until they wore up in her sitting-room. Then he looked at her, smiling In his un expected way, but without mockery. Then she saw that his face could be nice. He wore a new grey flannel suit, and his hair had been cut and trimmed to conventional smooth ness. . "No, I won't do that," be said casually. "Why not treat It like a Joke, which it really Is?" "I don't see it in that light at all, Mr. Moore." "1 should try to. Do you mind If I smoko?" He did not sit down with out being asked. She stood facing him, and sud denly felt foolish. She pointed to a chair, and sat down herself, refus ing a cigaret "So you went to work as usual to day?" he asked abruptly. "Of course." , "You Intend to go on with it?" "What do you mean?" She stared In amazement. "Only that Albery asked me. 1 said I didn't know. Perhaps it would look better if you didn't." FLOOD FAILS 10 E W ATKINS OLEN. N. T., July IS. fAP) With odd Rurmenta donated by HM Cro workers and friends as their wcddlnR costumes, two refu gees of upatnte New York's flood were marriwt today. Wttnesars to the ceremony were ome 100 villagers made temporarily homeless by the flood. The principals were Dominic Fnl luncll and Grace Maori, both of whom lost personal belonKlnfta when their parents' homes were wrecked by the high waters. Griffin Creek ORIFFIN CREEK. July 13 (Spl ) Several ladle of the community attended (he cork:n school In Mrd ford rntiy. Mrs C. J. Pick and aons Law iv not and Psle of Jacksonville were oalleii Laurie's eyes blazed. "Nothing would Induce me to give up my work. 1 would rather tell the truth. Vou haven't any right to ask me to." "1 won't, then. Don't bit the ceil ing! It's only that be Is offering me a very decent salary, and it might seem queer." "I don't care what it seems." She saw amusement in his face and at once controlled herself. She mustn't get excited. "They didn't know at the office that you had come back." ahe said. "Albery Is going to announce it to morrow. He's been very decent; he's used his Influence so that the papers won't make any fuss. I've agreed to give one Interview only, and that'll be the end. I never would stand publicity. Well, Albery has solved our domestic problem. He's lending us a furnished flat quite near bis own, and he's asked us to dinner tomorrow." Laurie was speechless for a mo ment; then she stammered out: "You don't mean we've got to live In the same house?" She looked so much like an abashed child that he could not help laughing. "Naturally. Don't husbands and wives usually?" "I never thought of that." "You never soem to think of any thing. But don't worry, we shall manage. It will give us a chance to stage quarrels and And out we hate each other. 1 don't suppose you want me to come and live here?" "H, no, no! There's no room. Besides oh, no! But It's my home. 1 can't give It up. It's my sis ter's home. I made It for her." "You can shut it up for the time being. I'll pay the rent. By the way, your sister how does she stand In this little game?" Laurie's face crimsoned once more with shame. "Glad thinks 1 was married to you. You see, she was unconscious, at death's door, when it happened. I couldn't face her afterwards. So I let ber think ft, like everybody else." "You must have an ingenious brain," he commented. "It wasn't difficult. She believes everything I say. 1 only had to tell her I'd met you near our home In the country, and we were married secretly after poor Belle died. Glad was away (or six months, working on an orange plantation, before we went to Sydney. She didn't know Belle; she went to a different school. She's five years younger than I." He looked at her straight In the eyes. For the first time her antag onism faltered. "1 guoss you've been through a bit," he said quietly. "Well, that's all right. You'll send the good news to your sister right away." His smllo was mocking again. "She will bo 'coming to London soon." "Thon she can stay with us and watch our cat and dog life. Better to have a witness on your side, so It can be all my fault." "You're perfectly disgusting!" Laurie oxclalmcd furiously. "I don't believe I'll do It after all!" "It's fixed. You can't get out of It now. By tho way, you know my first name. What's yours?" , "Laurie." "It suits you. It's uncommon like you. I say, must you look so glum? Can't you see the funny side of it?" There was quite a pleased expression on his face, a hint of the eager, happy, laughing young man of the photograph. "I haven't said I'm grateful to you, but 1 am. Albery Is all ovor me. You see, I've got to make money. It's the main thing for me to make lots of monoy." He Btopped abruptly, as If he had forgotten himself In a moment of rare relaxation. "I'll make It oaay for you," he add ed. "And I'll get off now, and come back In the morning. Alhery sent a message. You're not to go back to the ofllce anyhow for a few days, until we're settled In. Can you move tomorrow?" "I suppose so," she said ungraci ously. "Right! Good-night, then!" Laurie was confused when he held out his hand, but she put hers In U. A tingling went through her that made hor pull It hastily away. Her "gond-nlRht" was a whisper, ns she fought for self-control. (Copyright. Coralie Stanton) Tomorrow.

The portable house for side camps instituted it Wlmer some months ago and first built at' Jack creek camp paued 1U first teat successfully when surveyor Lew Amort dismantled, mov ed end reassembled an 8-man bunk house here Friday in 74 hours. Am ort used four men and a truck to move the building from Central Point side camp to lta new location at Murphy 35 miles away. It took the four CCC member one hour ,to unbolt the house, another hour to load it and four hours to re assemble It after the truck reached the new location at Murphy. Amort thinks that when the men are a lit tle more experienced in dismantling and reassembling, the time will be cut. The Wlmer type portable bunk house Is built in three unit sections which are light enough for ease In handling. Each wall, side of the roof and the floor Is divided into throe pieces whioh are are bolted together with ,B" bolts. The building is strongly braced with A-frames whloh bolt Into the plates. The pieces fit easily Into the body of an ordinary sized truck. Blue prints of the new type house are in the office of J. J. Russell, ECW camp head.
