Y ' MEDFORD MATE TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, . OREGON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1941. PAGE SIX FOR THE LOVE OF PAM i By VJYIEN GREY Chapter M To Match Yoar Eyee Vou my ivin yourself very long drawn-out job, Jerry," Pm said. "I'm equal to it." "And about the rinj, Jerry there isn't much point in talking about it, aince rings and you and ' I don't make a picture at all: but I do like your letting Freda keep "Darling!" It wa a If he had moved to her and put hia arms around her. That'i one of the thingf I love about youl Material thinga Just don't count at all, do they? But I'll get you a atone Just as fine when you say the word. In fact," grinning, "I'll get it be fore, so the minute you say yes I can pop it on your finger, and you can't change your mind." Pam smiled. She loved the im ' pulsiveness of him. "But you haven't told me who's going to be at your party?" aha asked. "Well, your boy friend, Doctor Shore, is going to be there." That was really all Pam want ed to know. With Leo there she was sure of a rush. Let one man start plying a girl with attention and every other man at the party followed his lead. Pam mini listening especially, but Jerry waa going on to tell her some of the others who were to be at the party, a pleasant selection of winter and townspeople, most of them from the younger seta. "Pam, I love you,' Jerry broke off about the party suddenly and spoke with much earnestness. "I don't know why I'm talking about anything else when I feel that's all that's worth saying!" "Jerry, it's late. Time you pushed off." It wasn't an answer to what he had said, but there awas a tenderness about it, a deep, tranquil tenderness had enveloped Pam. The temporary chaos of her life seemed to be clearing again and the old tranquillity return ing. "See you tomorrow. I know I'll love your party. I've never Been on a reauy Dig yacm lor really big party." "I'd much rather you'd love me than the party. And as for big parties on big yachts, you'll be on them lots from now on, sweet!" was his reply as he hur ried away. "I'll be here to get you. and will you-knock 'em cold when I bring you inl" Early next afternoon a mes senger arrived with a package for Pam. She found when she opened it a corsage of velvety French marigolds, fresh In their bed of ice. They had come in en the noon plane and there was a card with them aigned "Jerry." Pam smiled as she read the written Words: To match your eyes. Jerry had said that to her once, that her eyes were like French marigolds. It was sweet, a thing to take to her heart and keep there. Jerry had so many lovely qualities, Pam thought, if only he'd do something worth while instead of just loafing. Anything, thought Pam. She would wear the flowers against the soft green organdie of her dress. Later a box was deliv ered with Leo's card. Marechal Neil rosebuds. Two Levers ITZRRTS eyes lighted ss he looked up the long flight of stairs as he waited in the hall and saw Pam coming toward him. "Didn't I tell you that first dsy en the beach that we were, going to be friends?" he asked as he tucked her into his ear and then paused a moment to leave a light kiss on the Dalm of her hand. Riding through the streets of the village under the star-swept blue of the Florida sky, Pam went back mentally to that day on the beach when she had first seen Jerry and his dog. Blase was even then on the back of the seat behind them, her soft black nose almost touching Pam's neck. Pam began to caress the animal's head. Jerry grinned. "I wonder," he said, "if Blaze appreciates that as much as I would?" "Much more, I'm sure," Pam laughed. She was In a gay mood. She knew that she looked right for the occasion. Jerry's eves had told her that. So nothlne- that could happen wouli shake her confidence. She wop ' laugh at Lenore's outbursts of temper and in one way or another give back as Kood as she got. "Heartless creature!" Jerry ex claimed, but pride in her echoes in the words. Leo drove up as Pam waited for Jerry to back his car into the parking space. He had let Pam out because the gravel of the lot would do her slipper heels no good. Leo stopped, got out and stood beside her a moment. Pam wondered if his eyes were a little Hurt as he looked down at her. "You tu would give me the Icy mitten m ne saia. wun every in' tention of speaking lightly, but there was a pained undertone in the words. Involuntarily Pam's hand went out to his. Leo had so long been a friend she cnund count on. "You don't mind, Leo? I dldnt think it mattered who brought tne.

I'll ask them to put his in the lea box and put them on later. Leo. it was sweet of you to send me flowers." The young doctor glanced at the buds, exquisite against the soft green of her dress. They always maae me mina. of you, Pam," he said quietly. Thv ,ri an definitely one of the things that make this island a lovely place. And you're like that Girls like you, women like you'll grow to be, are nice inn. "Leo, I'll remember that all my life. It's the sweetest thing that's ever been said to me." Leo smiled. "Y ernaps men,- ne said, "it will earn me a dance. I have only we nrsr, one wiw Freda." "All you want of them,- ram said. Unaccountably in that in stant Pam was gisa sne naa made no promises to Jerry. Leo represented everything she liked in a man. He was a useful, help ful person. Someone for whose living the world would be a lit tle better, a little less filled with trouble and pain. Break it upr was Jerrys blithe approach. "I don't like other men going into a huddle with my girl! "Try and stop It," laughed Leo. "If vou insist upon picking the prettiest girl in the place, you've askea tor competition: "Go ahead!'' Pam laughed. "1 can take it Peps me up." "V-.in lass!" cried Jerry. "You don't ntt'J it If you hear any more about how lovely you are, vou won't be sDcakina to us. You already surpass perfection. What more do you want; "Conch," Again "CO many things, Jerry, I couldn't J begin to tell you." Pam's voice was suddenly serious. She didn't add aloud that she was not even sure what she did want One thing she knew with deep, un wavering conviction. She wanted Jerry to have some more impor tant purpose in life than merely having a good time. "I'm jealous that you're wear ing hia flowers," she heard Jerry say. "But I'm carrying yours. Jerry, and I'll wear them later." Mrs. Winthrope, standing at the gangplank waiting for the rest of her party to come from the car, smiled warmly at Pam. "I hoped you'd come, my dear. I'm so glad." Then, Pam reflected, Mr. Win thrope had spoken of her. It hadn't been only Jerry who had thought of her when the guest list was made. That was pleasant to know. The vacht waa a blaze of light There was the sound of clinking ice in glasses, of light laughter etched against a background of won music xncrv wem muw scenting the air. It seemed to Pam that she must be dreaming. Pam noticed Lenore was most often standing at the bar where Cuba Libres and rum highballs were being handed out with lav ish generosity. Jerry took Pam to the bar. "Drop a conch shell in It, so she'll feel at home," Lenore said as she wstched the bartender mixing their drinks. Pam had asked for plain orangeade. "Pipe down, Lenore," Jerry warned In a low voice. "It seems to me you're the one to pipe down!" Lenore ex claimed. "Bringing Miss Conch to the partyr "You'd do well to watch your own step," Jerry snapped. "You'll have shells growing out of your own shoulders, if you aren't care ful! And it might help you some; it might counteract the poison brewing In you." "At least 1 don't bring it to the yacht." Lenore flushed. She hadn't supposed Jerry knew about Vin. She paused on thought of Vin. He had wanted to come to the party. Not for the party, but to be near her. He was getting so Jealous of her. She wondered what he was doing. She looked across at de Belle fort standing languidly at the bar. He had never stirred her as Vin did. And he had never done any thing that gave her interest an upward trend. With Gervase in New York, ahe did the same things day after day cocktail parties, to dinner, to a night club, to a breakfast place, and then home to bed in a dawn she wss too weary and bored to appre ciate. Something about Gervase an gered her suddenly. She realized that Leo Shore was speaking, and turned swiftly to him. She had been playing up to him, as she did to every good-looking man she met Leo was laughing at her a little. "I'm Conch. Lenore," he was saying. "And proud of It. It im plies roots in this island. That's something! Come on. let's dance!" Pam watched them dance away. Lenore's sultry good looks were pointed up and emphasized by Leo's blondness. Then Jerry took Psm to the little dance floor. Leo cut In on them. Then F.dmund Antnine. handing the baton to one of his boys, claimed her. Te eenunaed ISPOKANE DAIRYMEN ! GET WAGE INCREASES Spokane, Sept. 24.
