Pam ignored Vin'i greeting. Her eyes flashed at Lenore. Spies?" she said. This beach Is public. If you don't want to be teen, go somewhere else!" "You can't get smart with me. TO show you" Lenore had risen to her feet and -was about to start at Pam when Vin caught the skirt of her play-suit "Sit down, beautiful." be said. "Pain's a friend of mine." Something about the way Vin gripped Lenore's skirt swung her off balance and she fell from the steps into the sand. Pam laughed. She knew the girl wasn't hurt. Oo her good to have her silly pride uicen aown a oil Lenore was up Instantly and nying at vin. "I'll get even with you for that! You will make me ridiculous, will you?" She raised her voice so that it waa unrecognizable as the blues-singer Pam had heard at fenas. - Vin was equal to her. He caught her hands, laughing at her, shook ner genuy. "Come, wildcat! You need tamer, and I'm the guy." Meantime Pam looked on, faint smile in her eyes. "Can t take It, can you?" she asked of Lenore with maddening smooinness. -you start something you can't finish, and then you raise a big squawk. I'd be ashamed!" "I'll give you something to be ashamed of!" Lenore turned to ner angrily, "Hush, honey, change the rec ord. It isn't suited to your voice," vin cauuonea, . Pam looked at the voiine musi cian. Lenore apparently had met ner master, vin mignt oo some thing with the girl. Pam realized the tactful thing would be for her to disappear and, aince she liked Vin, she got her wheel and rode away. But not In exactly what migni De called a spirit 01 lor Kiveness toward Lenore. It was that evening Leo Shore came nome. his first thought af ter checking in at the hospital. waa or ram. ne parxeo: in the Quellerton drive Just as Jerry pulled in behind him. Both men stood at the door when Pam ap peared. -Hi, darling." Jerry was light hearted. Freda had released him, so he no longer thought of his quarrel with Pam and was intent only on having time alone with her in which to straiehten everv. thing out. "After you've told Leo you're busy, I'd like to take you lor a whirl of the night spots." Pam looked at him cnnllv "You've guessed wrong, Jerry," she said. T'I have data with Leo." Jerry was obviously startled. Refusal was a new sensation to him. Finally he found his voice. "I'm a guy that knows a gate wnen ne sees one, ne saia. turn ing and walking back to his car. Leo looked after him. Then he turned to Pam, "What's all this, PamT" he asked. "I'm delighted to be the chosen one. But we hadn't a date. What's the big idea?" "Nothing, Leo. I just don't want that creature hanging around here. You know I've never liked winter men." "That's just it I was surprised to see him here at all. It's some thing new with you, Pam. But" he added, "Jcrrv's all right." "Forget it will you. Leo?" Pam asked. Jerry Waits AND Leo did. Temporarily. He J had brought gifts from Wash ington for Pam. White gloves for evening, embroidered in gold. A bottle of the newest perfume with a name that was meant to be risque. A white chiffon square with a huge golden flower. "Because you're the onlv girl I know who wears white perfectly," he said as he gave it to her. And Pam thought of the evening at Pena's when Lenore wore white as if it had been created for her. It seemed somethine mi al. ways happening to remind her of the Winthropes. Because Jerry had brought It to mind and they were both in a restless mood, they made a round of the night spots. Leo didn't go in when they re turned to the Quellerton home around midnight. Pam looked tired. Besides, he had Just come irom a lone trip and needed guessed. How much she couldn't tell. But something. Pam started for the stairway when she entered the house, but as she passed the living room door she saw a shadow rise from a deep chair and come toward her. She stood transfixed for a startled moment. "Yes, I-Pam, Jerry said in low tone. "But Jerry, at this hour!" "The hour isn't important. Pam." "It's a wonder Juan let yon stay!" "He couldn't help himself. He couldn't have put me out" "You sound a little bit mad." "I am. Ma'd about you." "Oh, Jerry!" A wave of tender ness swept over her. The sort of thing that always happened when Jerry was near her. He was the maddening kind of person who made her want to forgive every thing she had ever done or would do and go into his arms as if she had always belonged there. "Pam, you are glad to see met Say you are. I can hear it in vour voice, I can see it in your eyes. xou can t nme wings, ram. "I'm always glad to see my friends." she said with a tightness she was far from feeling. "You don't mean that' He took her hands in his and looked down at her. "There was something spe cially for me about you just now. Don't try to deny it; your eyea won't let you." Ana f am knew In her heart there was no use trying to deny it. But she said still with that bright artificial gayety: "I'm hunsrv. Let's vet snm. thing to eat come help me get it from the ice box." Pam wasn't hungry, but she knew Jerry had been waitine there all evenins and must be. While thev ate. Jerrv tnld Pam that his father and Gervase de Bellefort had come to Key West and his mother was giving a par ty on their yacht next evening in honor of Gervase. They wanted Pam to come. Big News DAM hesitated. She wondered 1 how much anyone besides Jer. rv wanted her tn en. hnw murh Jerry himself really wanted her, since he had been willing to bet about her. Lenore, she knew, wouldn't want her. Nothing would make Lenore more ancrv than tn see her arrive with Jerry. inai aione was reason enough for coins. Pam decided miHH.nlv Lenore had been as rude to her as possible. She would pay Le nore in the only way she could by being seen with her brother as much as she could manage. And she could get a little even with Jerry, too, for that bet by amusing herself with his friends. She would go, she decided, and be gay, show Jerry just how little she cared. YOU Will let me talc vnil?" nhm heard Jerry asking eagerly. "I'd love going,' she said. "Who all will be there?" Not that it mad, murh riifvi. ence, because Pam was suddenly determined that she would at tract her ahnr nt allanli.n it only to annoy Lenore. Pam had never taken pleasure in malrino others angry, in hurting them or ciiinx even in any small way. lut Lenore had hoin irn,l AnJ Pam had overlooked much. Her mind wa nhim-h. u thought.

Pam was looking at him. word less, wondering if the glory that warmed her heart was sliining in her eyes, and hoping it wasn't She didn't want Jerry to know how happy his news hsd made her because she didn't dare quite believe in the happiness herself. "And now. Pam, darling, will you let me tell you all over again that I love you? And will you marry me? And you will ffo to the party?" " "1 1 go to the party with you. Jerry ,'r Pam finally agreed "Is that all you have to say to me, Pam?" "Isn't it enough. Just now?" "I suppose it has to be. if thsi'a the way you feel about it.
