Chapter Three Revelry By Nifilit "pAPTAIN KURT KNUDSEN U Vj among those present," Vicky whispered exultantly later as the two girls met in the silver and blue powder room. "So that makes the evening complete, does it?" Stephanie shrugged out of her wrap. Out of Vicky's long ermine-trimmed vel. vet cape, rather. 'But definitely." Vicky looked like something a modiste might have dreamed up in a long scarlet coat, lavishly gold-braided. "I've made Bill promise to introduce me and" "And the rest will be easy." Vicky's laugh rippled after her s she led the way down the stairs. "Hope you're right, angel." Stephanie smiled grimly She was right She paused at the landing, looked down to where Henri de la Pagerie stood waiting for her. And for a moment he was sorely tempted to flea via C V . Jit, 3 - - r 5'::. .IK ear Smiling, she felt his some back stairway. Then ihe saw Kurt, his blond head tower ing over most of the others. She moved swiftly down the stairs, smiled as Henri guided ber to ward the ballroom. The party was very fay to night. Most of the Mayfair Club dances were fun. But tonight most of the men were in uniform and the gleam of polished leather, the alchemy of well-fttted uni forms brewed heady excitement. And straight out of Freshman English, ant suddenly remem bered: Thrre waa a sound of revelry by nlrht Ana liltluni's capital had gather At lienuty and her Chivalry and brluru The lamps shone o'er fair women and breve men." That had been the night before Waterloo, before the fair women had had to send their brave men into a hideous battle. War Is I'g ly "CUCH serious thought," Henri J reproached her as he guided her smoothly through the maze of dancing couples. "May I not share tnein? "I was thinking how sure we all are that war can't nappen here," the said still watching the door way where Kurt Knudsen stood. "War is ugly, but" Henri shrugged a characteristic Gallic gesture of futility, "sometimes it is necessary. And it has some compensations, vou know." Stephanie shook her head. "I can't think of anything that would compensate for the life of a single one of these boys." "Yiu Americans are most sure, ly the pai-ilists, are vou not!" Henri laughed quietly. But Stephanie didn't hear him. Because Kurt had recognized her, flashed her a smile that sent a D. A. V. I Jackson County Chapter No. 8.

A moment later, Kurt tapped Henri's shoulder. "Sorry, may I cut in?" "Oh. look here. Captain, I've only lust begun" Henri pro tested. But Stephanie had already transferred her hand to Kuril shoulder. Smiling, she felt his arm go around her. his step guide hers easily into the pattern of the music. , "Well." he grinned down at her, "been saving any more dogs since I last saw vou?' Still not trusting her tongue, Stephatiie only shook her head. His blue eyes searched her fan a moment. "Still sore at me for not leaving you out on that windy hilltop?" "No, of course not. I'm Just surprised to see you here." "Do you suppose I'd be safe if I asked why?" She slanted a smile at him. "Since when have you worried about being safe? I thought you loved the bright face of danger." "But danger hasn't got big brown eyes and a cute little nose that goes up in the air when she's mad. Nor a pretty pink dress either." he approved, holding het off a little so he could look down at her. "I don't like women in uniforms." "You mean, you don't like wo men," she amended, feeling hei cheeks unfurl scarlet banners un der his glance. "Oh, now listen." He drew net ft ) jet Jf f Nr f& f vz. : -r arms go round her. close again. "Let's go have a drink on that." And then, moments later as he lifted the tall frosted glass, "Here's to friendship." Stephanie nodded, echoed, "To friendship," and sipped her drink. Friendship FRIENDSHIP, of course. Why not? With other boys she'd known, she'd insisted on mere friendliness. Love wasn't to be tried on like a new hat with every season. Falling in love wasn t something you did more than once, A long way off in the fu ture. But when she met his eyes across the top of her glass a mo ment later, she wasn't sure. She was certain it wasn't after the next long dance. Kurt still laughed at her, teased her. and kept withdrawing his real self just out of reach. As if he delib erately drew an invisible line and said "this far and no farther." He gave her only occasional glimpses of the real Kurt as if by accident Glimpses of his deep-seated pas sion for flying, of his long, thrill- ing hours in the air. of his deep loyalty to freedom and to honor and to courage. "No wonder you are such a wonderful pilot," she thought aloud. "Anyone who loves it the way you do. Aren't you ever afraid?" "Sure. Sometimes," he eon. fessed honestly. "But not often and not for long. I'd be more afraid if I thought there was a chance I couldn't fly. You start really living when you've got wings under you. But say" and gravity evaporated with his quick smile, "this isn't entertaining you with bright quips and sallies. Pardon me while 1 thumb through my stock of brilliant conversa tions."

Sam Rayburn, speaker of the house, said last night the United States now has six times as many soldiers on the battle fronts after four months as General Pershing had after 10 months of the war i of 1917-1918, and that produc- tion of supplies for these troops ! was running ahead of schedule, j (On February 8. 1918 there were approximately 200,000 United States soldiers in France under General Pershing, with most of them in training at that time.) But despite this bright pic ture, the Texas Democrat told a unity rally, he did not ev.pect the end of the war in 1942. He sketched this outline of arms production: More than 3,300 planes are pouring out of factories month ly, well ahead of schedule, tank production is ahead of sched ule with one company alone turning out an entire trainload daily, and anti-aircraft gun pro duction is in advance of sched ules.
