"Nan, how do you suppose Fred will explain hid smash up?" Deborah asked anxiously, as she sipped her coffee. "Alter all, he'll have to give some ex planation for that wrecked car. I'm afraid our hope of keeping the incident hushed up will be Impossible." "Bell probably ten the same story that be told Kenny last night that you grabbed the wheel and made lum lose control of the car when he made a pass at you." Nan shrugged. "Well, what does it mat ter? Let him say that. It's better than letting people know the truth." "Yes," Deborah agreed. "1 cer tainly don't want to broadcast the fact that he tried to kill both of us. What a furor that would tartl" "It's not going to be easy for yon to meet him In the post office this morning." "Mo, but it wont be any harder than other things I've had to meet." "Well, not every girl has an ex suitor try to kill her and then goes off to work blithely the next morn ing." ' "Here's one who caul" said Deb orah, swinging her legs out of the bed and feeling for her slippers, PRED showed op at the post of T nee late that morning, looking considerably the worse for wear. He earef ullr avoided Deborah, busying himself with work at the opposite end of the room. "Well, at least you've freed your self of Fred," Maud remarked to i Deborah. "I doubt whether hell .ever annoy you again. He knows that I know what happened. He has shot me several apprehensive lances, but I Just stare at him as though J dldnt know him. I think Ooorg suspects something." Deborah sighed. "Probably the whole town will be fun of rumors before evening." ' m the middle of the morntng. rif an came In to collect the Chelsea Shop mall. She beckoned to Deb orah through the parcel-post win dow. "How you dolngf" . "Fine." "You look okay. Listen I want ed to tell you that the style show at the Island Club hac been postponed until next week. By then, Mrs. Taggart will have some fall models in. And she still wants you to take Sart In the show. Will you. Deb ts?" "IHsee."

Then, a moment later, she heard him speak to Nan. "What's this about your sister?" he asked. "I beard she was In an accident last night," "Well yes. she was." Nan re plied hesitantly. "She had a quar rel with a young man, and he lost control of his car." - "That's not how I heard It," OeofT said curtly. "I heard that the fellow tried to kill her. If" Deborah quickly stepped back to the window. "Nan Is it necessary to discuss my affairs In a public place like the post office?" "Sorry. Debbie." said Nan. Oeofl cam forward. "What about it, Deborah?" "It was nothing." she evaded. "Anyway, there's no need for you to concern yourself about It." His dark eyes flashed. "I shall make It my concern if any one at tempts to harm you." BY afternoon, rumors about the accident were flying thick and fast. People wandered Into the post ottlce to stare curiously at Deborah and Fred. However, Maud's sharp tongue discouraged any one who attempted to ask questions. "This is a post office, not a clear ing house for gossip." she told one questioner tartly. "Do you expect us to hold up the mall while we satisfy your curiosity?" "I Just wondered," mumbled the questioner. "Keep on wondering I" The next day. Fred failed to ap pear for work. During the morning, his mother phoned to say that ha had left town to enlist In the Navy. Maud laughed when she heard the news. "That ducking he got must have given him a taste for the seal" Both she and Deborah were greatly relieved that he was gone. A mousy little man came to take his place, and the post office set tled back Into its humdrum routine. One evening toward the end of the week, Nan told Deborah that Tony Marvin had left for Canada, but she showed no evidence of be ing upset over his departure. In stead, she quickly dropped the sub ject and started talking of her plan for going to Chicago in the fall to look for a Job as a model, "Mrs. Taggart says she win recommend us to an agency." sh said. "We have some savings, Deb bie, and we could sell the house, couldn't we?" "Sell our home?" "Debbie, dont you want to make something of yourself? Don't you want to go some place that Isn't dull and slow like Little Harbor?" "I love Little Harbor," said Debo rah. It was true. She hated the thought of the confusion of a big city. However, she could Imagine Nan In that setting could Imagine her loving It, becoming successful there. For Nan's sake, perhaps she'd better agree to go, for Nan was too young to go alone. Nan said, "You know, Debbie. I sometimes think that all you want out of life Is a man. You're a hang over from the days when girls thought that love and marriage were the beginning and end of everything. You're trying to find the prince In the fairy tale. But Ufe Isn't like that nowadays. Result you get hurt, badly hurt. "Take me and Tony. Tony wants to go to war, and I want a career. Marriage would handicap either of us. If Tony had developed too seri ous symptoms. I would have dis couraged him. Better for Tony, bet ter for me, the way things are." Nan paused, then smiled wryly. "Easy to talk! I don't think that way always. I have my romantic moments, too. Oh, skip HI" "Well," said Deborah, "well see what we can plan for the fall. I wouldn't want to sell the house, but perhaps I could rent It." "Debbie you mean it?" Nan asked eagerly. Deborah nodded. (To be continued) T7i characters In thU serial are fictitious) (Oopr.
