giida giti By OREN ARNOLD bRV HARBOR WEDDING CHAPTER XXIV TORAINE STUART law Ed Bry an and Pat leave the luncheon table, but ihe made no protest. She shifted her lovely, sultry eyes back to Captain Cam "You must understand that I think of you constantly," Jimmy was laying, and his voice had a desperate tone. "Lorry, you and I why, good grief, Lorry girl, we're like that!" He held two fingers up, side by aide. Loralne said nothing. Food on the table went untouched, but the opened her bag for a cigsret Jim Carr, who didn't smoke but who usually held a match for her, apparently didn't see the cigaret t all now. He was that intent. "Little girl, I'm as serious about this as possible. I won't have you or anybody else Imply that I two time youl I'm not that kind of a heel. Don't you understand?" Lorry squirted smoke out the side. The motion screwed up her pretty lips unprettily, and her eyes were narrowed, watching his. "You believe me, dont you. Lorry girl?" Jim begged, low tone. "We we had everything under stood. Didn't we? . . . Didn't we? . . She finally deigned to speak. "What about this Friday person?" Jimmy was struggling harder than ever. "I wont belittle Pat Not In the slightest. Matter of fact, she's swell, but well, look, Lorry. I" "Then you still want to marry me." "Lorry! ' Of course!" "All right Will you? And If to when?" "Why why well, look look, you say it!" Jimmy swallowed, and his eyes were wide now. "You came the date yourself You're the one, not me! When ever and wherever you say!" He was like a soldier going to do a duty if it killed him, and shrewd Loraine Stuart did not miss that fact ; . She tamped her cigaret out and aid, "Tomorrow at noon. Bight here." ' "H-Here?" She nodded. "There's a cute outdoor chapel right here at the Phoenix Sky Harbor. Where a great many movie stars are mar ried after flying over from Holly wood. A Spanish arch, under palm trees and a climbing rose. Okay, Jimmee?" This had be come business-like now. A strictly business contract arranged by the party of the first part while the second party was willing. "Absolutely!" said Jimmy. "Ab solutely, Loraine!" JJAT'S breakdown of sobbing passed in a very few minutes. She wiped her eyes on a huge ker chief, gave it back to its owner and stammered, 'T-thanks, Ed. You are so kind." "Do you good, crying a little," aid he. "All right now?" j "All right Only I'm ashamed." ! "Forget that part Nobody saw fou. Not even me." j "Thanks, Ed." "You wanta eat anything else? Or you wanta go back to that of fice? You better eat! You got to fly in a sky train at 4 o'clock. That ain't but a few hours." Til get a malted milk later. And a sandwich. Everything is so horrible now and oh!" He turned to follow her gaze. Jimmy and Loraine were coming out on the terrace, toward them. "It's all right," Ed comforted. "Just don't try to talk for a little while." Loraine, surprisingly to Ed, had all her old verve and sparkle back. She strode toward the can vas swing like a conqueror, like an imperious dress model on a stage, like a woman of absolute purpose and poise. Jim Carr'a . face was set "Well," Ed Bryan began, rising, "Well, uh it's not 1 o'clock yet but maybe we" "Sit down! Do sit down!" Loraine directed them, brirhtly. There may be something" you two people want to know!" "Yes'm," Ed agreed, nervously. Neither Jimmy nor Pat spoke. But Loraine now said, "You're both going to be a little surprised, I'm sure. But the truth is, the romantic old southwest has got ten into our bones, in a measure, Jimmy's and mine." "Ma'am?" Ed looked at her. ! "Capt James Carr, U. S. Army, and Miss Loraine Stuart of New York City and Elmlra, wish to announce plans for their wedding, to be held tomorrow at high noon!" "IVTOBODY else spoke.' Ed and 111 Pat both looked frozen. "Wo really can't stop and visit Just now, children," Loraine went on, triumphantly. "So much to do, you know. But you'll both be there? Tomorrow at noon, right here at Sky Harbor, at that darling little marriage shrine! We'll want Mr. Bryan and Miss Friday by all means, won't we, Jimmy dear?" "Yep," said Jimmy, lips still light. "Sure." Ed tried to catch his eye, but IJImmy looked past him. Then Loraine led her man away. They really made a. fine-looking couple Copyright, 1943 NEA Service, inc. going Jo-n the terrace here; the distinguished young Army avia tor and soaring expert and the statuesque, blond girl. When they were out of sight, Ed exhaled again. He turned to Pat Friday. "I I better get back to work," she said, nervously. He took her to Mnjor Hnle's of fice without another word. Peo ple were waiting to see her. Ed went on away, a whipped, angry man. Pat did not go at once to the desk she had borrowed. Rather hastily she went on through to a small anteroom. She just had to have a moment alone! She didn't cry any more. Not now. Control had to be forced at any cost because of the after noon's task before her. ... But for an ageless minute or so she did think. The old hope within her of course lay completely dead. She had tried everything. Everything! Kindly Ed Bryan had sought to help her; it just simply hadn't worked. She had tried slaving for Jimmy. She had tried being honest sweet girlish. She had tried once back in El mira being sophisticated, and that had been terrible. Today, she had tried a cooing, purring technique which Loraine herself used so effectively on Jimmy Carr. Nothing had worked. Pat whispered a quick little prayer. "Please take care of Jimmy! Please take care of him, God. Always!" Then she hastened back to her assigned job. (To Be Continued) ANSWER: 5L .
