JERRY HELPS OCT CHAPTER XI ANN turned Into the first door. The Kit Kat Tea Room. She gasped ai she looked at the mel low lighted Interior and hurried toward a booth. "Like old times, lsnt It. Janet, having afternoon cocktails here together." Ken's voice. A wry little smile twisted Itself about Ann's mouth, and she swal lowed a lump in her throat. Sally had been right. Ken was with Janet Had he been coming every day?. Had he been dining with her every night, when he told Ann he was working? "Where are we going to dinner tonight, Janet? Coon's orchestra Is playing at the Strathmore. We could dance together to the grand est music In the world. We used to have grand times together at the Strathmore." "Before you became engaged to little, ladylike Ann. Don't forget, Ken, you are engaged." "But not married, Janet, and there's many a slip We can still dance together and dine together and no one can stop us." Other words came to Ann, but they did not register on her tunned brain. She watched them leave the tearoom so interested In each other they did not notice her. "He's double-crossing you, tell ing you he has to work at night when he's dining and driving with Janet" That was what Sally had said. Sally had been right A thousand things were leaping up to taunt her Ken's scorn of her dancing, His wanting her to pretend to be something she wasn't his arro gance, and now his unfaithfulness. But suddenly she knew that it ' did not matter, because all at once, tor no reason that she could un derstand, she did not care. She ' no longer wanted to be the lady the sedate person he wanted her to be. She no longer wanted to fit into that background of aris tocracy which meant so much to him. She wanted to dance. And more than anything else she wanted Jerry Lane with his sin cerity and honesty. She had called Jerry crude, but now she knew that real, rough Kjuality In him was what she (loved. There was no veneer about (Jerry. He was jfist what he was land she loved hi, i i I TERRY. She thought of Mm; f breathlessly, shining eyed. She wanted to dance with him (again to Jim Coon's orchestra. He had told her that when she called him he would come no matter when. She'd find out from Jim Coon If he was still in New York., She couldn't get to the telephone nan enough. At last . . . "Jerry." Her voice was high and shrill as she flung the words over the telephone to him. "Jerry, this is Lita. The veneer has cracked Just as you rcaia li wouia. Jim coon's In town. He told me where to find you. (And I want you to come to me r light to dance with me. "You've got to come. Get a plane. If I ever meant anything vo you, you ve goi to come now . . "You cant! But, Jerry ... I "Oh! You've got your call! You're ordered to report to camp tomorrow I But Jerry, you must' ... I ... I need you!" I It was a rainy, misty June night ' pa uw spea over we nignway to (the airport She had scarcelv (Parked the ear when a plane was i zooming overhead in the darkness. . nhen it was bumping over thei rrouno. ana hart stopped. She ran forward, holding out welcoming nanas to Jerry. She "could scarcely wait for him to taxe ner in his arms, to feel the warm, hungry pressure of his lips gainst hers. But ho wasn't gath ering her close. I Stunned, she realized that ho 'I was noiaing ner hands in the same Impersonal way that he would Ihold the hands of any girl he aiKea mat he wasn't going to kiss . her at alL She no longer meant1 anything. The realization was like jasn cutting ner. The tears spilled over and trickled down her cheeks. Shei sumoiea lor her handkerchief. "Why, Lita . . . what's the mat. ter?" He was looking down at her i In the dim light ; "Nothing." She swallowed a! oo. "i guess I was Just home Ick to see you. It's silly of me to cry, isn't it? But it's Just nerves, i ve naa a quarrel with Ken, only I haven't really. I'll explain. Anyway the effect Is the ame as lar as the tears are con ! She heard him giving the pilot Psuucuono. ite would be flying ck about midnight Midnight The word was like p nan or pain through her heart I "But you can't so soon." She ncciaunea snarpiy. i i must I've orders to report Oh ... I forgot." TN the car beside him, speeding back toward town, she told him about Ken. "And so," she finished mockingly, "they're going to the Strathmore tonight to dance for old times' lake, and I knew I had to go, too, and dance for old times' sake.. Jerry, you don't think I'm crazy, do you?" U Wo." jerry smiled a little. He med .older,, strange. "You're I acting Just asI would expect you to outraged pride and all that I and , it's fortunate that I could come along and help you put your jshow over. ; "I dont suppose that Ken and Janet care any more about each other than you and I do. There's i always a time, you know, when you think you're crazy about someone, but you recover even tually. "I dont think I realized until afterward that It was for the best our calling it quits. You never do at the time, and our little show tonight will probably make Ken realize." "But I dont want him to real ire." She wanted to shout the words at him, but she didn't "I don't care what he thinks. It's you I really care about and our mar riage wasn't a mistake." She held the wheel until she felt as it she must twist it off, staring ahead at the dark, misty night thank ful that he couldn't see her face. Jerry didn't care. He was talk ing as impersonally as if she were someone he barely knew. He had gotten over caring about her. She wanted to cry, but she mustn't. She'd have to go on pretending now. She couldn't humiliate her self before Jerry and let him know how much he meant to her when she meant nothing to him. "I didn't know love could hurt you like this, Jerry." She spoke shakily. "I thought love made you gay and happy." He must think she cared about Ken. What a fool she had been to throw over some one as worthwhile as Jerry for someone as shallow as Ken. "It does, darling." His voice was carelessly gay in the dark ness. "Love has dancing feet and it does make you gay and happy, and it is only when we're mis taken that it makes you sad. "After all you aren't really mis taken In Ken, perhaps. But don't I uujc atxmt u. Think only about tonight . , . and us, dancing to gether. You know you'll have to put on an act . . . laugh and act as If you're enjoying yourself, or Ken will know how jealous you rcauy are. (To Be Concluded) OUT OUR WAY By J. R. Williams OUR BOARDING HOUSE, with Major Hoopla CLEANED UP DENVER, (P) Two squads of police, encouraged by passcrsby, rushed to the hotel roof demand ing, "Where's the man that's gonna Jump?" "There s nobody here but me, replied Bridegroom Archie S i m p le m a n, 24, interrupted while hanging out a wash. Then he remembered he had peered over the hotel cornice af ter a handkerchief that had blown from his unwashwoman ly grasp, and decided maybe that caused all the excitement.
