Bad denlr tootatrpa approach. ; RENDEZVOUS CHAPTER DC rPHS footsteps accentuated the mysterious end adventurous qualities of the situation. Beth gathered herself, up slowly Into at compact a mass as possible, and stayed as closa to the sandy soil as she could. The footsteps came nearer. They were not so rapid now. Beth could sea a human figure in the moon light It was that of a man in unl form the cut of the clothing was unmistakable. He seemed to be hesitant, and acted almost as though he were afraid of being ob aerved. He stopped on the beaeh between Beth and the seaplane and watched the flying boat for a moment Beth heard him whistle. His back was to her. She knew now that he was not only a member of the armed forces, but that he was a commissioned officer, for the moonlight was reflected by his collar ornaments. He whistled again. There was activity of some sort Beth could not detect what on the seaplane. Then he called softly but clear ly. "Lita," he whispered and now Beth felt a sickening sensation paralyze her soul "lita, it's Brit." "Just a minute, Brit," Lita called bade TN less than a minute a small boat was launched. In it were a man and a woman, the man plying the oars expertly. "What do you want?" Lita Dan ton asked. "I want to talk with you ... alone," Brit Jackson said. He entered the boat and the three returned to the seaplane. For an instant a light went on, and then it was blacked out by the drawing of a blind. "I'm spying on my commanding ofHcer," she told herself. "I have no right to do that" She watched the seaplane with fixed gaze as it rocked gently on the tide. She wondered what was being said behind that drawn curtain. She found herself wondering what the interior of the seaplane was like. Then her mind reverted to the lost directive. Had Brit known where it was all along? Did it ever even exist? Was Beth being framed? No, no, no, her heart shouted at her reason. Everything would be all right! She must have faith. Then she was calm again. Was Brit laying a trap? Of course his purpose was honest. But whom did he suspect? Suppose that the directive really was lost during the daytime. Did Brit still believe she was at fault? She remembered how he had made such a point of changing the safe combination, yet letting her know the new one. Did he suspect her, and was he laying a trap for her? After all, she reflected, he knew nothing about her before they had met in General Tallicoe's head quarters. She was just another WAAC to him, and he admittedly knew nothing of WAACs at alL A young woman playing at being a soldier, Brit had said. a T5ETH looked back down the beach. There was nothing of human shape or form to be seen, , nor was there any human edifice. The camouflage was more com plete by night than by day. No light showed, no sound was audi ble though this last was because of the distance, and not because of ny prohibition against making : ordinary sounds. The white top of the surf, the ' clean sand, the curve of the beach these were part of this Shangri Lal It was more beautiful than the had dreamed. - Beth's position was cramped, so the shifted slightly. She heard lome native noise she guessed it was a nlghtbird's call back in the island's jungle, which began lust behind her and increased in MSA einVICS. INC thickness the farther It receded from the beach. A half hour elapsed. The light lppeared again for a second on the seaplane a door was opened briefly, then closed. Three persons entered the boat and it moved slowly toward the beach. When it reached the beach, Beth saw that the trio was the same that had gone out Lita, Rick, and Brit. The two men were almost the same height, but Rick was easily distinguishable because he was wearing whites. Brit got out first "Thanks for the taxi," he said. Then he walked up the beach a few yards, looked around, and turned back. "Come on. Everything's clear." Lita stepped from the boat and then Rick. Rick dropped a weight NAUTICAL CHAIR SET OF FILET CROCHET by Alice Brooks A sailing vessel In a flower frame makes the distinctive motif for this filet crochet set It will put the spotlight on your favorite chair OR hide the shab by spots.

On the other hand, if the objectives are too far beyond what can be attained, then all kinds of un evenness and lack of balance are sure to develop. WPB Vice Chairman William L.
