A' group of her friends Ellen Wells, Roberta Barlow, Elaine Richardson, and Sue Foster, had lready arrived. And Christie paused a moment in the doorway . is a shock of surprise ran through her another glrll A girl with a cloud of dark hair framing her thin face, a cigaret between her poppy-red lips. . "Christie," Mildred exclaimed, "we're really In luck. This is San dra Rydall. She spent some : months in China once, and she has the grandest Ideas. Wait until you hear them. "Maybe you've met," Mildred continued. "Yes, we ' have," Christie, re plied, "at the dance last, night." ' . '.'You run Into so many people at dances," Sandra said with a low . laugh, "and sometimes three is crowd." Roberta spoke up: "Sounds like Bart Sanderson was around. You are new in this town, Sandra, but it wont take you long to learn." "One of those romances that haven't yet become routine." San dra said, slowly. Only Christie caught the emphasis on the "yet." And that, .she was sure, was be cause she was looking for it Poise completely restored, she spoke easily: "Stop chattering, Roberta, and let's get started. I've s luncheon date." She turned to Sandra: "So you .have some Ideas?" . "I'm filled with them," Sandra answered. "I don't know yet that they'll work." Again, that odd emphasis. Vl'd like to hear them. We're here to plan .decorations, you know." "That's one of the ideas." San dra's eyes met Christie's without smiling. . Mildred , was looking startled. ' "In a moment, Millie, or some body, will guess Sandra and I are having a private war," Christie thought She felt a little ashamed. Perhaps, she was at fault- May--be, Sandra had sensed her resent ment in the beginning. She re membered Bart had said, "Arent you a little unfair? You don't even know her." . ' v. ' j Well, she knew Sandra could be .cheap. Her manners were not only unconventional, they were rude. But she was here, offering to help. - iC ANDRA'S. ideas were good, she V had to admit There'd be . the 'ball,' of course, "with everybody wearing Chinese costumes. Then, 'in another room to draw the older crowd all the Chinese, art treasures that could be borrowed In and around Westwood would be displayed. Maybe there'd be a special corner . for Chinese fans. . "Why it's wonderful," Christie exclaimed. She began appointing commit tees. Sandra would head the dec orations committee. Another group would collect the art objects, and mother would arrange for insur ance on them. "I must dash now," Christie said, glancing at her wrist watch. When she reached the porch, she heard a step behind her. Sandra had followed. - "Just a moment," Sandra said. "I wanted to say. something to you. You and I needn't pretend. You know I'm not interested 'in the ball. I don't care whether. It's a success or not It rather amused me to show, up a lot of superior people. That's all. Behind all that show of good will in there, you really don't like me, and. you know how I feel about you. This Is just to keep the record straight from now. on. "Why are you so sure we couldn't be friends?" Christie asked: slowly. .'!We happen to care for the same man," Sandra said, bluntly. - The- sheer audacity of it, the unexpectedness of it caught Christie off guard. Girls didn't do things like this nice girls didn't. "I have been living abroad for . years." Sandra ' said. "Things weren't easy lots of times. I learned to be ruthless. And I learned to grab. Things are hap pening so fast now, if you don't grab all the fun and happiness you can, you're likely to be too ilate." -"I see." Christie fought the primitive impulse to cry out: "But it won t do you any good here. 'Sandra. You are in a different Iworld, where people still live by a (different set of rules." I Without a word, she' turned and I walked toward her car. ' . - !f)N an Impulse, she slowed down . She still had. a few momenta to spare before time to meet Bart. She'd drive by and tell Russ she Was through with flying. ; Bill Blake hurried out to meet her. "Gosh,- Christie, I'm glad you're here: You're an answer to prayer." . ... . "What's the matter, Bill? Any thing serious?" "Serious as hell," Bill answered. "They phoned from the local hos ipltal, they're sending an emer gency case here. Concussion from sn automobile accident They 'think this guy needs a brain oper ation and they're rushing him to Ijkevllle to some chan there who specializes tn brain surgery." If I could reRch Bart," Christie said. "There's no lime to get any body," Bill said. "This chap s got to go now. They wanted the plane warmed up and waiting. You'll have to take him over, Christie. I know vou can. You couldn't miss. Just follow the highway. They're keeping everything wide and clear at the other end." 'But I couldn't." Christie saw. trembling. "Oh, Bill, why can t you fly"" "Because I never iparnefl. i know what takes them up, but I can't take them up. Funny, isn't it?" "It Isn't funny." Christie saw. It's dreadful. But I might crack up and kill him, Bill." Bill shrugged, "wen, lie u proD- ably die, anyway, unless he gets to this surgpon. It's only bii miles. Christie. You've got to do it There's the ambulance, now." "Warm her up. Bill, she said. Thev were lifting the injured man from the ambulance. Christie walked over and looked down on him. He was young, and he had good features. His blond hair showed above the wide, thick bandage that bound his head. As she watched, pity in her eyes, t the wounded man opened his eyes. He was looking at Christie with a queer, bewildered expression, i After a moment, the bewilderment , was gone. "Oh, it's you," the j stranger said. He closed his eyes j again. "Know this chap?" the hospital i attendant asked, yours?" "I never saw Christie answered. delirious." The attendant shook his head. "I think It's tlin first conscious moment he's had since the acci dent. Where's the pilot?" "I'm the pilot," Christie said. She saw the amazement and doubt on (lie faces about her. Sud denly, she felt a surge of confi dence. "I'll get him there." she said. (To Be Continued) FAMOUS BAYING The famous saying.
