The Huron Expositor, 1951-10-12, Page 7itIT 12, 1951. I( CHAPTER ! There was a lilt to her gait, and a broad smile on her lips as Stew- ardess Sally Alliston swished through Comet Airline's Employ- ee's Entrance at LaGuardia Field, It had. been a good •flight; easy to please passengers, a wild and wool- ly run before a threatening thun- derhead, 'hunderhead, and the glow of a perfect sunset to guide them in a landing., Pleasant people, a good job with a futuyre, excitement, beauty — what utofe could any reasonable mtss of twenty-one ask of life? She purred contentedly as First Officer Jimmy Kennedy detached himself from a cluster of admiring operations agents—ever the wolf Ifyou don't sleep well --if nights are inter - rusted by restlessness —look to your kiid- esys.

"Sorry, Jimmy, I already have a date." His face clouded over. "But what is wrong with me? I'm young, I know how to show a girl a good time. Doggone it, why do you always say no?" She swung around to face him, purple eyes deep pools of laughter. "Can it be that God's gift to ach- ing womanhood is on his knees, pleading?" "Nuts, cherub. I never plead. Curiosity, that's all. As a matter of fact, I really don't go for you. Me, I like women who are more emotional. Cold -cut Sal, that's you." I'm flattered." He scurred after her and gripped her arm roughly. His face, rugged and creased by the sun, was apolo- getic. "Aw, I didn't mean that. But it makes me boil when 'you start acting snippy. Look, let's go in to the city and have dinner to- gether Gross my heart, I won't make a single pass." "But I really do have a date, Jimmy." Even as she said it, the horn of the gleaming limousine parked be- fore the 'airline building blared musically. He looked and his danc- ing gray eyes bulged. "With that?" "With .that, Jimmy." "But you're making a mistake, you know. I bet he's a stuffed sirt. I bet he's never once really made love to you." 1 NOTICE TOWN OF SEAFORTH All bicycles in the Town of Seaforth are required to be Licensed Licenses may now be obtained at the CLERK'S OFFICE, and must be secured by October 13, 1951.

Women men respect die spinsters. * Again the thorn blared and again she turned to the car, almost bumping into Captain Mike White in her hurry. He set hie bag on 'the pavement and shook his head wonderingly. I "You Mean you really are turn ing Jimmy down?" "Good. As a matter of fact, con- gratulations." He extended a hand in Jimmy's direction. "Five dol lass, chum." "Hey, I'm not licked yeL" "You mean he bet he could date me?" There was awe in Sally's tone. "Yon mean he was so sure of himself?" "Sally, you can't throw away a chance like this. Why, I'll even take you to a Attila." "Strange, how that plane that just passed deafened me" She smiled winsomely• at flustered' Jim- my, then turned and got into the limousine before the young first of- ficer could think of using Tech- nique 2. Roger permitted a little smile to soften the wintry mould of his face as he hopped out of the limousine to help her in. A little man with a big head, he had been in the em- ploy of the Jethrup family for al- most thirty years, first as a gar- dener, then as a chauffeur. He had also been Uncle Roger to her for more years than she remembered. She kissed his cheek, firmly ignor- ed his cry of outrage and climbed into the front seat. "Come on, Uncle Roger; I don't want to be late." "Young women should obey their elders," he muttered, getting back behind his beloved wheel. He clos- ed the door with a slam that indi- cated the depth of his feelings. Roger loved the limousine almost is 1.e loved the Jethrups, and he only .tanged doors when he was definitely not approving of the world or people. "What do you think people would say if they saw you sitting up here in front? They'd say that I'd got me a girl, that's what they would say. And what would happen to the Jethrup name then, huh?" Ilove you, Uncle Roger. I love you with fire." He was so startled he almost ran the car into a tree. "I'm go ing to tell your mother. I've been warning her for years. Too much freedom, that's what did it. Too much freedom. When I was a young man women knew their place." "I know my place, Uncle Roger. It's up here in front, with you. I am a servant's daughter and I have no right to ride in the mas- ter's seat." "You're not a servant's daughter. Your mother is the housekeeper. That's not a servant's job." "I still think my place is up front, with you." He'd have died rather than ad- mit it, but she could tell by the way he let the car out that he was pleased. Roger drove fast on- ly when he was very, very pleased The heavy car purred smoothly along quiet country roads. It was pretty good, thought Sally, just to sit in the front seat and relax. Presently they rolled to a hall before the, deep porch. Grandfather Jethrup was rocking back and forth in the little ham- mock as Sally alighted from the car and went up the steps at a brisk run. He removed the , cigar from his mouth and smiled 3rar- iously. "Ay, young Sally, got here in time, did you? Philip is home, by the way. Arrived this morning. Looks quit fit." "Philip is here?" She felt her cheeks burn and Iowered her head hastily, but not quite in time tto conceal the excited, happy expres-. sion. Grandfather Jethrup had on ly one good eye, but with the aid of a strong -lensed monocle, he did not ever miss a thing. He hacked to clear his throat and give her an opportunity to recover, then smiled gently. "My dear, I thought we had gone over all that?' "The question is settled, sir. I would never do anything to de- stroy Philip's chances." "Bully. Bully. By gad, you re- mind me of my dear departed wife. She was a sensible woman. too. Mind, I have nothing against you. I have watched you grow up to be come as fine a woman as your mother. But it isn't a question of like or dislike, eh? A. Jethrup, that's what young. Philip is. A Jethrup, my dear. A good marriage. a food merger of two important industries, a wonderful future for the boy. That's. what we both want, eh? His - happiness and fu- ture insured." "You know that Philip doesn't love Catherine, Mr. Jethrup. He told me so." The old man plucked his wisp of beard thoughtfully. "I know, young Sally. But hezll come around in time. Philip is a sensible young man. Another year or so andhe'll be ready to do his duty as a Jelh- rup. A fine boy, Philip. I'm proud of him." His complacency irritated her. She started to tell him exactly what she thought of an old man who wanted to do all the living and thinking for the young, then re- membered her mother and shut her mouth again. She turned and went into the house as, with a pleased little cackle, the old man turned his at- tention to his dog. Philip smiled. He was standing in the little tiled vestibule, as handsome and reserved as ever. She gasped and stopped dead in her tracks, then laughed and held out ,her hand. In the old! days she would have run and flung her arms around his neck, but they weren't children any mord, and Pbilijr w.4 : ngaged. "How nice to see you agattt, i?hil ip. Your grantifatll.er was jupt4 tell" ing me that you returned tQd,a)" • "I know. I heard him." ire took her hand warmly. "The yniferm becomes you, Sally. And how nice - looking you've become." "Have I?" She fiaehed him a smile as she went into the living - room. "Mere may be some truth in your remark, at that. You're the second man this evening who's implied that I have something on the ball." "I've always thought so." He pulled up his trouser Legs to pro- tect the creases and sat down or - the sofa beside her. How many times had they sat thus, and how happy they'd • beent! Philip had. never been high -hat. She may havelbeen a servant's daughter, but she had been his playmate, con- fidante, friend. He laughed self - consciously. "Strange, ,but I feel awfully embar- rassed, Sally. You, too?" "A little. And that's rather silly, don't you think? I mean, we were all children then and all our .talk was kid stuff. Now you are an adult and a Jethrup, and I—well, I'm what 1 wanted to be, a steward- ess." "Are you happy, Sally?" She met his deep brown eyes and smiled faintly. How many times had he asked her that, too? "Very happy, Philip. Of course, I miss the country and mother. But I have a lot of fun in New York. You must come to the apartment some evening and meet Helen. She's an operations agent, only a few years older than I, but quite a little mother, Yes, I'm happy." He studied his shoes a moment, then laughed bitterly. "And I'.m not. So much for that old bunk about money being everytihing, I've not been happy for years." "Philip!" Her cry of horror, of sympathy. delighted the plump woman who ?ame slowly into the room. She Stopped and smiled gaily. "Children, . don't tell me you're quarreling already? Really, I Lhinl: t is most disgraceful." Philip came to his feet gallantly 'Just a discussion, Mrs. Alliston. '11 give you five minutes alone with -our daughter and then your birth- day party begins." Mrs. Alliston nodded her head, pleased, as he thurried to poin his grandfather out on the porch. "Sal - y, he's a fine boy." "And you're a fine mother." She harged across the carpet and flung her arms about her neck. 'Did you get my present?"
