Sur.anne'a eyes were narrowed, her face was pale : under the rouge. "That's just what Td like to know. Don't you : really understand?" , . Martha stirred uneasily. "No, i really." Tha other girl touched her hand. Her finger were icy. "Listen, Martha. Every time Pauli asked me lor a date. It was to come up here. Wait! I'm not talking about now, aince Bill's gone. That is, not entirely. I'm talking about before, when we four always used to go out Some times, you know, I didn't feel like a foursome. Sometimes I wanted' to be alone with Paul, have him come to the house for dinner, or Just to talk . . .': Her voice trailed off. She tight ened her hold on Martha's fingers and suddenly she was saying pas sionately, "There a no use deny ing It I'm in love witn Paul! always have been! Even before he met you years ago. I was so happy when you married Bill, I wanted to get down on my knees: and pray!" A host of half-forgotten mem orial came back to Martha.

And yet, they ran across Suzanne every now and then. In a restaurant where they ware dining. In tha lobby of a theater. I Once Suzanne came to the plant with some friends from out of town, asked Panl to show them around . SO many things, now that she Suzanne had alwava i in love with Paul. Even be- Martha wore his ring. ' "Martha," Suzanne was saying ransKuy, -wnen you were engaged tto him, I played it square. I tried Ho keep out of his way. I didnt no a lot of filings I could have Idone. Oh, it wasnt easy. Some- sames L eoulrm't help wanting to pee him, Just for a little while. (But I didn't run after him, I didn't Play any tricks, I told myself it .was over and I tried to get along without him." "Yes," said Martha "yes." (beer Ifore uuuuKu nur sienaer frame. "Oh, what's the use? I thought It I told you If you understood " She whirled, suddenly. "I've been a fool! You probably knew all about It A woman always knows when a man loves her. You did knowl You must have known, and you encouraged him!" "Suzanne!" Martha's knuckles were white as she gripped the edge of the end table. "You've got to stop talking like this. I won't have it Not a word of It Is true! You're just Just making trouble . . ." All at once, she was sobbing. Helpless tears stung her eyes, and her mouth quivered. "Why should you come here and s-spoil a f-f-trlendship that was clean and " "Because it was never merely friendship. For Paul." "That Isn't true! You know there's nothing nothing at all between Paul Elliott and me! Why, I was engaged to him! If I if he why, I'd have married him, wouldn't I? How dare you say I encouraged him? I didn't ;I never even guessed. I married Bill and I " She was faltering ; stupidly, the tears getting the best I of her. After a while, Suzanne lit an- i other cigaret "It's no use crying," she said 'in a hard little voice. "I suppose I went too far when I said there was actually something between j'you and Paul. If there had been, ;I suppose, he wouldn't ever have needed me for camouflage. All right I'm aorry I said that May be you never guessed that Paul was still in love with you. But if you didnt Martha, then it's time someone told you." "I'm going. I've But remember, She stood up. said enough. there's only so much one human being can bear. And it wouldn't be very nice, would It tf some one should tell your husband ex actly how often Paul comes here, exactly how much he takes you out and exactly how he feels about you." (To Be Continued) SURPRISE McKEESPORT. Pa. (AP) A man and his wife in their late sixties, admitted to a hospital as charity patients, will get plenty of attention while there and probably a terrific shock In the form of a bill when they leave. Attendants said the man, who collapsed on the street had In his clothing $120 In rash, bank books showing $200 In one ac count and $4,000 In another. Fur ther investigation disclosed the woman held real estate valued at $1,000. PRISONERS' SONO HAZARD, Ky. (AP) T h e prisoners couldn't have sung much louder, and when they burst into full-voiced song the second night In a row. Jailer Grant Campbell went up to the second floor to hear better and maybe to help. What he saw didn't do much toward harmonizing relations be tween Jailer and jailee. Two of the 16 prisoners, he said, were taking turns keeping time with a hacksaw. And not on the bars of the song, either. OUT OUR WAY By J. R.
