and aaid that he must tee her.
Til be right over," he announced.
Sue Ellen could tell nothing
from his voice, but when he came
ahe taw that Riv would not be
easily convinced that ah had
changed In her affection for him.
At first she was amused and then
angry, as he strode Into the room
and came toward her with no
other Idea than to take her into
his arms.
"What's all this damned non
sense mean? he demanded ang
rily. "Why should you rush off
and marry that soldier iust be
cause we had a misunderstanding?
It's the most ridiculous thing I
ever heard. I won't stand it. As
soon as I can set a separation
from Deedora
She stopped him. "This Is no

"I'm married. I was perfectly
willing to be married, and was
not kidnapped, as you seem to
imply. 1 Know wnat 1 am aoing
He Interrupted hotly: "You're
a child in experience, Susie. The
' man took advantage of you when
you were angry with me and
lurious wun my mner.
Sue Ellen said: "I cant under
stand either your oresent eager
ness or your father s. A week ago
you were all excuses and your
father was doing everything in
his power to break up our com
ing marriage by evasions and
postponements. You never once
told me the truth. If you had
come to me last summer and said
that you mere married, instead of
humiliating me by delaying and
lying
"Susie" He came and aat be
' aide her on the couch and took
her hand. She withdrew the hand.
She guessed that he believed his
touch would make her weaken
fill her with regret for what he
considered a rasa ana spitezui
gesture.
"I don't love you, Riv," she said
candidly. "I might have thought
I loved you, even though you
were married to Deedora, and
desperately enough to be willing
to wait and wait until all this
foolish marriage with Deedora
was dissolved, but I don't love
you and I never did. I have an
affection for you based on our
childish associations together, and
something else. The desire to And

measure up to the romantic fig
ure I pictured as my future hus
hand. He had to be tall and dark
and handsome, and a southerner,
of course."
It's Pride"
"VOU told me you loved me,"
' said Riv bitterly. "Now youu
throw me over just because 1
couldn't greet you with open
arms when you came to Washing
ton unannounced. If you had
never come, things would have
been different."
: "How?"
' He stared sulkily at the opposite
wall for a moment.
"It's your pride thafs hurt,"
aid Sue Ellen.
"You never loved me enough
to want to marry me, Riv, and
I've decided something else. That
whatever you say to the contrary,
you do care for Deedora Waller."
He jumped to his feet. "Cars
for her I hate herl"
Sue Ellen shook her head. "She's
your wife. You're Just as much
married to her aa I am married to
Johnny Harris."
"And a couple of fools we both
re."
"Why?"
"Because that Harris Is gone en
Deedora, and only married you
when he found out he couldn't
have her. Why do you think he
was determined to rush into mar
riage? How could he love you.
Sue? He didn't know you." He
caught her hand and held it tight
"Why discuss all this, Riv? The
time to have said this was weeks
ago. Can't you see?" She turned
and her eyes were deep and earn
est. "You couldn't have loved me
and treated me so shabbily. That
isn't part of love."
"What do you know about
love?"
"I'm beginning to learn what
Isn't love, she said simDlv. "We
could talk all morning and not
alter the fact that you are mar
ried and I am married and noth
ing can change that.
Jtiv grinned. "What an old
fashioned simpleton you are. Sue.
The law can change all that in the
twinkle of an eye and make us
both single."
"And what of the announce
ment Aunt Car put in the Mem
phis paper before I left, saying
that I planned to be married in
Washington?"
"You planned to marry me
you can't deny that"
"In the notice, nothing was
said about marrying you said
Sue Ellen cooly. "I'll say I went
to Washington to meet Johnny
Harris and marry him. That will
be my story and I'll stick to it"

"I have my pride."
"And I have mine. Probably we
had better not meet again, Riv."
Riv swept up his hat and turned
to leave the room. At the door h
paused to fling over his shoulder.

for I intend to stay right here In
Taylor Springs until you come to

as his own. "My name is Susan

Call From Glnny
SUE ELLEN came back on Tues
day evening. On Thursday the
weather changed. The evening
of her arrival had been a clear
cold night, with a star-studded
sky ana a round brilliant moon.
On Thursday morning, a steady
driving rain pounded against the
windows ana when Sue Ellen
opened her eyes sleepily, cur
tain of rain seemed to shut her in
and shut out the petty gossip of
Tyler Springs. For there had been
gossip, plenty of it.
She had not left Magnolia House
to go down Into the village since
her return, but the telephone rang
constantly. Some had heard of
Riv's return without her, others
already knew that she had mar
ried a Yankee, a number had
caught a rumor that there was
something more than sudden in
fatuation for a good-looking sol
dier back of her marriage. More
over, where was her husband?
This morning she thought of all
this Sometimes the questions
had been amusing, often almost
impudent. Her friends and ac
quaintances were Interested not
only in her present but in her
future.
The future. This morning she
closed her eyes and could visual
ize the past, right up until the
moment Johnny kissed her good
bye on the station platform but
the future? When you were young
it held so much. It was tantaliz
ing, mysterious.
Measured by meetings, she had
married a man she scarcely knew,
and yet this tall, grey-eyed young
man knew her better than Riv
who had known her all her life.
That thought led to Deedora
who had changed her life 40 radi
cally, for it was Deedora who had
uoset all her Dlans. It waa Dee
dora to whom ahe owed her hap-
Diness. for sne anew nanmnesi
as she had never known it while
she was engaged to Riv.
Always mere naa been an ele
ment of uncertainty in her rela
tion with Riv. Well why think
of Riv Deedora? Two more days
and Johnny would be In Tyler
Springs. He had called every day
and every day ahe waited breath
