FOR THE LOVE OF PAM

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

era. Jerry sent French marigolds.
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.
