"What)" Toln shouted. "If you really want to go in for aviation, -I'd be glad to give you a letter. Let 'me,know, will you?" , "Oh, Mat" Tom said, almost eryttg. Chris shook hands with Cass. "1.don't have to tell you that I congratrlate you," he said. "You have my best wishes. You're—" He paused. "You're very fortunate," he said simply, "Thanks," Cass responded. "Good -by, Mrs. O'Hara."

Her changed, lowered tone spoke only to that. "Thank you," Jhris said, stirred, clearing his throat,' He blinked his Lyes as he smiled at her, and bent his head suddenly over the, fine work - worn, capable hand. Then it was Mary Kate's turn. She. stood by the door,, and Chris took bath her hands, and ooked'down at her, as he said, unexpectedly, incoherently: "Aad you won't marry me?" The girl looked very tall and very pale, and was oddly unsmiling as she answered, conventionally. "No. But thank you, for aitking." "Thank you," His face reddened and his voice-hickened, and for a momeni their hands held them united, and their bewildered eyes were fixed upon each other. And it was as if both were asking the same question. "What are we saying? What does all this mean! Is this good-bye?" Suddenly Chris, laying aside hat and gloves with a quick gesture, gath- ered both her hands, against' his heart, and bent over her, so that his browned, almost+ stern face was close to her own. .` "There's one thing I left but, Mary," he said. "They may es well hear this, too. "It's this," he went on, in a deadly silence. "I didn't count on this. But I love, ou very much. Aid I say that?" The ground began to sway gently beneath Mary Kate's feet. .Waves - 4110010111101 Sped. Trade-in Sale on PRESSURE GAS STOVES SE* r`b Next Vt:' eek UPER-QUALITY. Latest models. Brand new.

To choose Chris meant no more kit- chen, no more Cass, no more Tom—. and in the dear hone sense, at least, no more eager, ambitious, headstrong Marty. It meant that she chose alienation, distance, It meant more—Mother, CHAPTER XL, "That's a strange thing to hear you say, Mr. Steynes," Mrs. O'Hara said, in the hush, "I know it," Chris agreed, with a brief laugh. Mary Kate continued to stand' per- fectly still, her bright .eyes on the group in the 'kitchen, or watching Cass, and wondering Tom, and Mart in the big chair, with his amus band- aged, and her mother, puzzled and anxious and gentle, in the rocker. One of her hal.ds had been locked in Chris' fingers, as she wheeled about, and their grip held, so that her si nr was twisted behind her, and her bright head, with its rings of disordered cap- pery hair, was close to Chris's big shoulder. "She's only tt little girl—" Mrs, O'Hara said, troubled. "I don't know did you mean to say that to her—" she added, doubtfully. - "I didn't!" Chris admitted, unsmil- ingly.

"You didn't have to say that to Mary Kate, for all me." "You didn't make me say it," Chris. topher anawergd promptly, "If—lf you felt that way," Martin pursued In the puzzled silence that held them all, "you could have told her',herself. Not like this!" "It hover occurred to me to tell her, herself," Chis answered again, with a faint, frowning scowl, ."Then—then you wouldn't feel he meant it, would you, Mary Kate?" Martin appealed, uneasily, to his sits - ter. • Again her eyes moved swiftly to Christorher's, and again she dirt not speak, continuing to measure the room with a bright, curious, little -girl look, rather tightening her hold upon Chris's hand, behind her, so that she was drawn even more closely toward his breast. The light from the single lamp, the green -shaded lamp underneath which the children did their evening home- work, wavered softly in the clean, homely kitchen. The clock above the sink ticked audibly, and the hot water faucet dripped a few intermittent drops upon the scoured zinc. Above the clrainboard a window was opened to the soft warm night. "She's promised to Cass, .;hers," Mrs. O'Hara observed, with the little indicative gesture of a thumb. "Mary is," Chris said dispassion- ately.
