FOR THE LOVE OF PAM

nor spoke.
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

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

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

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

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

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.

"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:

hungry, but she knew Jerry had

and must be.
While thev ate. Jerrv tnld Pam

and his mother was giving a par

Jerry himself really wanted her,

about her. Lenore, she knew,

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.
