' t t . If SERIAL STORY BANNERS FLYING BY MARY RAYMOND eopvmoHT. t. NCA 9KRVICE. INC. STEPHEN FINDS m8 LOVE CHAPTER XI 'J'HE whit ribbon of highway was racing under the radiator ornament now ai Stephen put the accelerator almost through the floor boards an h hurtled toward the plane plant. It was stilt a mile or so to the nearest building. The high wire fence, keeping out the curious, was on his right now . . . racing madly by in accord with the 80 mile clip of his car. That was the 'runway, there. They tested the finished ships there. The pilots of the air corps ferrying command lifted new battle wagons off that asphalted stretch of runway, bound for God only knows where. The sober thought made him think of Jan again. Stephen could see the crowds bow. There were the ambulances. . A khakl-unlformed guard was standing in the road, waving him to stop. Stephen threw caution Out the window as he tramped on the foot brake. The wheels locked and tires shrilled as they skipped and skidded over the concrete. "What the devil do you think this is?" the guard was bellowing, but Stephen scarcely heard. The door was open and he jumped out, running toward the scene where the crowd was thickest. There was suffering here lots of it: White-clad internes . were kneeling beside inert bodies. Were they alive? Stephen couldnt tell. ' ; "Here, carry this!" One of the nurses, popping out through the opened doors of a waiting ambu lance, shoved a case of instru ments into Stephen's hands. With out waiting to see if he were fol lowing, sho ran for the gate. Stephen hesitated only a frac tion of a moment, then dashed after her. This must be the place where the blast had happened. It was a low, flat, white building; like all the others in the plant, but some of Its windows were broken. . Desperately, he sought some sign to tell him what pert of the huge plant it was. There it was! Over the door on this end WOOD WORKING DEPARTMENT. Ste phen's knees almost failed him as a wave of relief made him giddy. He was standing inside now, look ing around. Jan wasn't- in this department Thank God! But she was. The sight of her the blessed sight of Jan. Alive unhurt And more than that Jan bravely busy; right there inside . the' smoky room. . Stephen thought he had never seen anything quite so sweet and gallant as Jan, with her sleeves rolled up, her face sooty. .Stephen held out his arms. For , ope brief moment she was close to him. Then, she spoke, quickly. ' f!Stephen, there's a girl in here caught under a machine. I'm . afraid she's badly hurt. Come help me." r . ' M-' COLTON had rrid in town, and had hurried home. Hollis let him in, and he rushed past Christie at the door. "Where's your mother?" he asked anxiously, and then not waiting for an answer, strode into the living room. Christie, follow ing, saw him take the sodden little ball that was her mother's hand kerchief,, cast it aside, and wipe . the tears from her cheeks with his own. ,- !'What's . all the excitement about?" he 6poke briskly. "Jan's gone over in Lakeville, probably. At some canteen, maybe and the house is upside down." : "I must have been a poor mother, or this would never have happened," Mrs. Colton sobbed. ' "Nonsense." Her husband was patting her shoulder. "You've been a darn good mother.- You've spoiled the children too much, given them too much let . them Save their way. That's all." . ' "Do you really think so, Chris?" Mrs. Colton had raised her face and was staring at him, hopefully. VOf course I do, Eleanor," his , voice was unexpectedly tender. In a flash of understanding, Christie thought: They've had their petty quarrels-lots of them 1 during good times. But trouble, emergencies bring them close to gether.. The country was like the family. All the disagreements, the differences that put. sections of this big, vital land into opposing camps were being forgotten, shoved aside now that peril faced the nation. . , t Her thoughts winged out toward Bart If he were only here, now, she could turn to him with such a passion of understanding. Only, you : couldn't bridge a chasm as wide- a low for nnothrr wnm5tt. With a glance at Christie's white face, Mr. Colton said gently: "Chin up, Christie, You and your mother are taking Jan's adventure too seriously. She'll be back and maybe feeling a lot better for a glimpse of a different type of ex istence. How about fixing a cup of tea for your mother and me? I mean fix it yourself. It will give you something to do. It's good for people to use their hands and feet sometimes. Maybe that's why Jan ran out" . "All right Dad," Christie said, mechanically. Of course, he did nqt know about the accident at the airplane factory and that Jan was working In a welding depar tment. And he didn't know she and Bart had cracked up. If he had known these things, he would not be feeling so confident that things would work out ... "REMEMBERING her father's wishes, she motioned the serv ants aside, and put the water on to boll. She was thlnhlng, I didn't even know how to make tea until I started keeping house for Bart. "When she came back into the living room, her mother was look ing more cheerful. Christie could see she had mads up her face again. Crinsue was thinking with a little pang: "Mother is like that. In a few days, t.he'11 be scrapping witli us again." The thought brought a half smile. Well, you couldn't change people. You could only accept their differences, and love them in spito of minor flaws. That was what Dad had done. He had gone right along, loving his pretty, streamlined wife, seeing her. good points and generously making allowances for her faults. She placed the tray on the coffee table in front of them. And then stood wry still as the doorbell sounded. "A guard came in," Stephen continued, "and ho yelled out: 'This Isn't n park, young people.'" "That," Jan concluded, "was when Stephen was kissing me." (To lk Concluded thf The miik for your child, rubber for your cur, your warm clothing for the winters to come, the money you hope to Hccuimiliiit' in lliu Imnk all these depend upon our success. And success will be achieved only if the United Nntlons r main united, in wnr and in peace. Supreme Court Justice Owen J. Roberts. ' her father i kie, "Hollis will answer, suggested. "No, let me," Chrisiie breathed. Her heart was beating fran tically. Dad was right. It was going to be good news. It must be! She flung the door wide. Jan and Stephen stood there .Ian looking weary, like a wan Cin derella who had been down among the cinders. But in spite of the smudges and the queer plain frock she was wearing, Jan was radi antly lowly. The next moment Jan was in Christie's arms, whispering peni tently: "Oh, Christie, can you ever forgive me?" And the next mo ment, she was surrounded by the arms of her parents. Inside, the story was told. By Stephen, with little interruptions by Jan. "The place was a mess." Ste phen said soberly. ''Nurses and doctors had only been there a little while, and they were giving first aid right there. I looked around and couldn't find Jan. Then I went into the building at the left. I didn't really expect to see her because it wasn't her department. "And then suddenly I saw her" "And I saw him," Jan cried happily. "I rushed right into his arms." It is vital to Hie welfare of the country to have real strength in the opposition. Wendell L. Will- I rtll'llllnlll'yoLO rubbfc anh oLi"" ToM,vurNi .V.' V T W I !: MACHINIST-! ACT.
