Slowly she put the bonds back ll juto the envelope, snapped a rubber band about them and sipped them into the small office safe, As she put on her hat she tried to lide the marks of her tears, but It was useless, She wanted to go home but she knew Grace would be there and robably Murphy, and she could not face them yet. She walked fb to the Fifth Ave nue bus and climbed up on top and was grateful for the cold night alr on her face, Suddenly she started laughing to herself, It was all so funny. "Poor Mr, Terry!

"I've just stopped being a | fool" Jean found 'in the days which fol lowed thet it was not easy to regue pain in her heart. It was always there, but she killed it with netlyi va work, play, She. changed her whole e of life, She became avid for pleasure, She bought clothes she danced, dined, went to the theas tre, 'as many nights a week as she could, She went to lectures, cone certs, art galleries, and took French lessons, She could not seem to orpwd enough Into one short day, ker upplouded, for she threw herself into her work at the office more earnestly than ever, "Just don't overdo!" was his only comment, "I don't want to have to travel all over Europe som ong, Spu to another hunting health for my secretary." Jean had told Decker about the ds, He was the only person who knew the donor, Just how he in~ terpreted the money and the letter, Jean did not know, made no comment, Neither did he intimate that an explanation was needed, "She's more beautiful than ever," remarked Decker one night as. he sat beside Scott Gerald and watched fran dancing with u major from ort Totten, Scott agreed readily, "Just what is it?" he remarked, "1 don't know," Decker replied thoughtfully, "There is a wist{ul. ness under her brilliancy: a hint of something in her eyes, "I can't just put my finger on it, but it is there." Then he turned and looked at the young man beside him: "You ought to marry her, Scott." y "Don't I know it? But she won't have sir! She says she'll never marry, ahd the worst of it is, I think she means it" Since the day in. the office 'when Larry snubbed her; Jean had seen him often, He had apologized hand- somély, not only with words but with orchids, Although they were plea- sant to each other, they never went about together, The charm for both of them was gone, Jean's social star had risen. She had become quite the vogue with certain of the fashionable younger set, Now hardly a day pass- ed but some smartly dressed youn person descended on Jean in her of- fice and consulted with her' about getting a position, Society girls were naking up employment. It was quite "the thing" to de, All this amused Jean, and her con. tacts were developing a poise and certainty of hersell which she needed, Since the night he had given her the bonds, she had not seen Jimmie, But he was never far out of her thoughts, Bvary time a swift mov.

"She's furious about it, because that will put off the Bedding for another six months any- way, She hates the idea of Jimmie flying, anyway. And so does Bob, for that matter. She hopes she can make him come to his senses when they're married." Jean's heart sank. Six months race! It would be six months now efore she would have to face photo. graphs in the newspapers of Roberta n_her wedding veil, In the weeks that followed Jean never opened her eyes on a new day ut that her first thought was of Jimmie.

What she guessed Jean did not know, Oddly enough, Loretta had revolutionized their lives, The homeless girl found happiness in making a home for Jean and Grace. When Loretta recovered from her long illness Jean found a vacant room on the same floor as the apart ment and rented and furnished it simply, in wicker and chintzes, Then she turned it over to Loretta as part of Loretta's new life, "We'll glve her u start again," Jean had said, Loretta had broken down and wept when she saw it, at me work for you!" she bege ged, getting & Job any place, The thing will follow me always, Let me work for you both, Please! Please!" ith some misgivings, the girls agreed, That night when they came home a neat, uniformed maid opened the apartment door at thelr ring, and she served their dinner perfectly, "Please call me 'Letty, " Loretta had asked, "Then if anybody who used to know me comes here, they will not recognize me." And indeed they would not. The drab, mature woman with a streak of gray in her hair, her frail body and sad eyes, was not to be associs ated with the bright butterfly of oth. er days " "Isn't life amazing, Jean?" Grace often remarked after the efficignt maid had served their dinner on a table at the fireside, "Mere Is Letty content to serve us, hidden away from the world, Poor girl! 1 won der if she's happier here than she would be working in an office," One day Grace said something of this to Letty, The girl shook her head, "Please don't feel sorry for me," she replied quickly, "I have lived my life and made a mess of it, Now it Is just 8 question of getting through the days, and I like being here and helping you a little, You're my only friends." It was Letty who saw to it that Jean's dinner gowns were always fresh, that her frocks were pressed and cleaned, her lose mended, Letty seemed to enjoy serving Jaan, She laid out clothes every night ready from the office. She liked to fuss for her to dress when she came in over Jean's beautiful wardrobe, Jean often wondered whether she would know Jimmie's voice if she heard it again on the telephone, She was soon to have that test, It was during a hard day at the office, She was busy on plans for a merger in which Mr, Decker was interested, a radio merger this time. At 2 o'clodk she answered Mr. Decker's private phone. "For a moment her heart seemed to stop beating, His voice! And it was a cool, collected voice, asking for an appointment with Mr. ecker, i : "This is James Reinsford, Miss Brandes," he explained, Jean held the telephone with her leit hand and steadied herself at the desk with her right, "Mr, Decker has five minutes free at 3 o'clock," Jean told the young man on the wires, The next hour moved on leaden wings, An hour before he would ome | "What a fool I am!" Jean kept re. peating to herself in a kind of under. current as she worked, Jimmie, slightly older, slightly thinner, a little more bronzed, step- ged into the office as the clock struck J, and she showed him directly into Mr, Decker's office, He was polite, but did not seem to see her ut all, She was just an employe of the great Mr, Decker, "Perhaps he will talk to me when he comes out," Jeun encouraged her sinking heart, but she knew he would not, The buzzer sounded. Mr, Deck« or wanted her, "Those letters from International Airways, please," he said, "The ones we were talking about the other day" Jean went to a file in the corner to get them, and Decker res marked to Reinsford in an amused voice: "Or courge, I'm interested in this Alaskan venture, buttdon't tell 'me you're going through with it?" "Why not?" igi answered, "I can't imagine your finance per- mitting such" a thing. Too risky-- Girls prefer a leas romantic but liye sweetheart to a dead one." Immie laughed uneasily Oh, as a flying man-I've put ro. mance behind me. No time for that sort of thing now." "I thought all flying men were great lady-killers ?" Decker said. "I'm the exception," Jimmie re. torted. "You see, a 'burnt child dreads the fire' T haven't much faith in women" Jean furned and laid the desired letters on Decker's desk and left the room, She was trembling, and tears Mung her 'eyes, Jimmie would leaving in a few minutes.

In the drive, water is the all y Forts thing and crews have been assembled so as to be on hand promptly when the ice starts to go out and the water runs clear. The logs are dumped into the streams and brooks as soon as the latter are open, They are sent swirling and rushing by the turbulent spring floods to the mouths where they empty into the onds and lakes, The logs are held n check there by a trip-boom until conditions are right for filling the big towing-boom, This is hung from both sides of the outlet like an im- mense bag, by long sticks, chained end to end, (A can be filled only in a favorable wind, When the right wind comes along, the trip-boom is opened and the logs float into the so~called bag. When the "bag" or boom is filled the ends are joined or "married," in the driving parlance, and it is ready to be towed to the next point of release, This sort of driving applies only to the brooks and streams, Ponds and lakes do not open usually until the middle of May, Important driving waters like Moosehead and Chesun- cook Lakes generally open up about the tenth of May, with a few oth. ers a little later, All the driving tris butaries will be fully worked before the opening of the lake and pond navigation, During the past winter, 900,000 cords of pulp wood were cut in Maine most of which have to be driven, This is less than usual. The Great Northern Paper Company, the largest wood handler in the state, had more than 800,000 cords of wood at ita mills the first of January, he. sides the amount that was cut, hut still in the woods.
