Once, when we first heard from the children about--about him, we said, ma- dame and I, that we would not be- lleve the story unless we had the evidence of our eyes, our own ears. Unless we saw him, heard him confess his guilt, And we saw -and heard." * * . "Yes, It was the same way with me." Roger stirred restlessly and Jit a cigarette when she declined one. "I knew Mike well enough to realize that he would side with the devil--if he thought the devil was right, But how he strayed into this--thig horrible business is more than I can fathom. What reward could they glve him? Money he never cared for and fame _never bothered him. He has cast®aside his birthright, his self-respect, everything. I have often thought "of those rencgade Englishmen who broadcast over the German radio and to me they seemed mere crackpots who were to be laughed at or pitied, You can't laugh st Mike--and he could pever be an object of pity. He is one who knows what it's all about." = "It was all so strange," whis- pered Meridel. "So different from the memory I had of him. When I met him there long ago he was so young and carefree and there was something In his eyes that was beautiful and good to see. But to- night, Roger--you saw his eyes to- night." : * * * "Yes--cold, hard, deadly." Yet I thought there was misery and tor- ment in them. And still I had to go tonight and put men on his trail who will shoot him down like a dog, and. receive no blaihe for doing so. Perhaps by now they have got him; perhaps--" "There! You must not concern yourself go." "Some women could care enough to forgive him even this," contin- ued Roger, "Is there such love? Is love real- ly the name for it?" Roger shrugged. "I think there is such--the sublime, the all-for- giving." - "Mine i8 not like that. It wasn't love, perhaps. It may have been Just a colored dream, "Then tonight was the end of that: Tell me that I may begin to hope--"' She smiled up at him, "I think you never ceased to hope, Roger." 'Say, rather, I never despaired. You will marry me, Meridel?" He looked into her eyes, slowly with- drew his hands' from her shoul- - ders. "There i8 nothing to stand between us now." ) * * * "Less than nothing, If--it you want me, I will marry you, Roger." 'Want you! More than I have ever wanted or even could want anything else in this world." "But you are not quite happy, because it came to you this way." "I think I would rather have lost the game than have won it this way--through knowing the But I Lo no reason why that should spoilour lives, our happiness." Roger: did not go to bed that night, He drew his choir to the window and dozed there a while and awoke to see the red-gold fur- nace in the eastern sky. As soon as he heard a noise below : stairs, he shaved himself and showered Dr Chase's PARADOL ISSUE 34-1945 LOUIS ARTHUR CUNNINGHAM 4 and went down to drink coffee with Gesner and Rudolph in the kitchen. » *. * Someone had. turned on the ra- dio, The volce of the announcer gave the early news Items from Montreal--' 'The police and mil- tary authorities have nothing so far to report on the two German prisoners, former members of the Nazi Luftwaffe, who escaped last night from a prison camp in the Laurentians. The two men, one of them armed with a pistol, took the station wagon---" Roger had reached the radio in three strides and 'turned the dial until he found music. But some of the keen little ears had heard. Pol Martin's big eyes were staring at him, at the still swollen lip and the newly healed cut, A strange look came over the child's face. . "Was it from this camp back in the woods they escaped, Roger? Was it your station wagon--?" Roger could not answer, but Pol Martin needed no words; he could read it all in Roger's face, in the way he looked at Meridel. "They came here, and you fought with them, That Is how you out your lip. All this happened while we were sleeping. But I dreamed of Bonhomme Fricot last night." * » » "You are sure you are not just telling us that, Pol Martin?" ask- ed Meridel. "No, no, I dreamed of him. He was alive again, He was smiling at me and holding out his hand to me and to Rosine, Tell me about the prisoners, Roger, please." "Not now, my little one. Some other day, perhaps. Now it is time for all of you to have breakfast. Today if you like we shall go up into the mountain." . "That will be good, Roger," sald Pol Martin gravely, "A lot of fun." But Flight Lieutenant Roger Fa- bre was not to climb the mountain that day. Shortly after breakfast an R.C.A.F. station wagon, far faster and sleeker than his own beloved jalopy, drew up in front of Philibert with orders for him to return to Montreal at once, "I felt it, somehow," he said rue- fully to Meridel. "I have to go, but this time 1 take my happiness with me. When I retyrn, dear, you will be ready?" - "I shall be waiting, mon brave," she sald gravely. "I. shall pray each hour for you--for your safe return." "A heck of a note, sir," said, young Ayscough, who had brought the car, "to have to leave. I guess it must be pretty Important, though.

LJ » L What our men have been through under shell fire and as prisoners of war is bound to have its effect In the immediate future. There will be times when they will be irritable, restless, and moody. I know bcauge I went through it after the last war. This "is a different war, and a different generation, -but fundamentally, cause and effect are the same. The men have done their part and, for those who return, whether they are able to adjust themselves to peacetime conditions, depends largely upon the women in thelr homes. A woman who matches her husband's irritibility with more of the same cannot expect a very "happy future; nor can the woman who drags her man around against his will with the idea of giving him "a good time" and helping him to forget, LJ L LJ I don't suppose many young married folk read this column but if there are a few war brides who do, let me beg of you to have pa- tience with that returned man of i! either they, or us, and if the use By doline: P.
