NOVEL EXPERIENCE
CAMP DAVIS — Leonard
Senior, 21, British gunner from
Dewsbury, Yorkshire, has an
interesting story—he has nev
er been anywhere except
America.
A member of the First
Composite British battery vis
iting the U. S. and now the
guest of the Anti-Aircraft Ar
tillery school, Senior has never
been to London and never been
in an "underground” — the
American subway.
A signalman on a British
railroad before entering the
regular army in 1939, Senior
is fascinated by the American
railroads. He finds them as
interesting as his duties with a
searchlight unit in Britain.
A father in the Navy, a
brother wounded in the Middle
East theater of operations and
a sister engaged in war work,
Senior has a pretty good idea
of what the war is all about.
His desire—along with many
other members of the battery
Is to visit Hollywood and see
pictures filmed. And ride on
trains.
"They are marvelous,’ he
says, “that terrific bell, clang
ing all the time ~
SYNOPSIS
KAREN BELL, wealthy and love
ly, has been the sweetheart of
another member of her rich
Florida set,
PAUL WYATT, since childhood.
However, she surprisingly en
counters a young stranger, obvi
ously not of her social standing,
and learns that he is
MARTIN HALID AY.
* * *
YESTERDAY: After agreeing that
Paul and she should marry, Kar
en and her father continue their
discussion. Jim Bell reveals tnat
he has received a cablegram
from Denise. Karen's sister.
chapter seven
A cablegram from Denise—Kar
en's heart leaped, then contracted
with something akin to fear as she
j took the yellow sheet her father
handed to her. It might be bad
news, instead of good, for they
i knew that that small Balkan coun
I tiy. where Denise had gone to
make her home, stood in the path
of Hitler's relentless war machine,
although as yet it had not been
attacked. It was so seldom that
they had any news, good or bad.
Once before a cable had been
i eceived at the birth of Denise’s
son; again, a few years later,
when this same little boy, named
after his grandfather. James Bell
Durfee. had lain at death’s door,
stricken with a mysterious fever;
another, months later, saying that
the child was on the road to re
covery.
With such scant information re
garding the 'ife that Denise led so
many miles across the sea. it was
no wonder that Karen was appre
hensive. although she knew what
ever news this message contained
must bear some gladness if it
must, at the same time, bring a
wave of sadness, too, for how i
could she 01 her fathei be re
minded of Denise without the old
■ crrow sweeping over them?
Again the message was about j
Denise s son. no word concerning j
herself It simply stated that she
v. as sending the bov home, »ks- j
sa,je having been secured on a
tefugee ship bringing other chil- i
dren to America. It gave the ap
proximate 'irne of the ship’s ex
pected arrival.
So much and yet so little: there
was nothing to say what had led
1 o this sudden decision. Yet one
thing was significant: there was
no question as to what the boy’s
welcome would be or if bis grand
father would take care of him.
And Denise had said she was send- ,
ing him “home.” •
“I thought at first I’d keep it as
a surprise for you when the little
fellow got here,” Jim said, his
voice still husky. He saw that for
a moment she could not speak, for
Karen’s eyes were brimming with
tears as she handed the message
back to him He knew they were
the same mixture as his own emo
tions. joy and sorrow. “But when
you told me your big news I de
cided to spring mine on you. Think
of it. chickadee, my grandson,
Denise's boy. Now you know what
I mearl by an addition to our
household!”
“I’m glad you told me,” Karen
said. She did not know why she
should feel so choked up. unless
ii was because the surprise was
almost too much for her. “It’s
wonderful news. dad. Almost too
wonderful to take in all at once.
How old do vou suppose he is?
What do you suppose they call
him? Will it be Little Jim and
Eig Jim from now or.” Do you
suppose he looks like Denise? ’
She asked these questions to try
to smooth over the intensity of
the moment, not because she ex
pected him to know the answers.
Eut they would know' soon. That
was the wonderful part. That si
lent wall separating Denise from
her family w'ould be removed. Per
haps a new one, of forgiveness and
understanding, would slowly grow
to take its olace.
•‘We’ll know all those things
when we see the lad.” Jim Bell
had to give ins nose a hard blow
or he would have tears stinging
his eyes also. It had been almost
too much, as Karen had said, for
| him. “I’m flying to New York next
| week-end,” he added. “The day
' after the Festival. I ought to re
j turn with the boy within a few
! davs. if the ship docks on sched
: ule.”
Karen wondered if he was think
, ing as she was—IF the boat docks
j—for of course it would be a dan
j gerous voyage. He must be a
! brave little boy. this unknown
j nephew of hers, to undertake such
j a long, perilous journey, although
| there were hundreds of other little
children facing that same ordeal.
| It must have taken courage for
j E>enise to send him, courage and
heart break.
“Can’t I go with you?” she
asked. Someone ought to be with
her father at such a time.
But he refused her offer. “I’ll
have other things to attend to
j while I'ni there, business matters,
and I thought I might ask Pf|i!
to accompany me. In fact, my
dear. I’d rather you were here,
waiting for us. I want you, per
sonally, to oversee the nursery
quarters, the rooms you and De
nise used when you were young
'uns. Cousin Ellen would toss out
most of the old toys and furnish
ings as ‘junk,’ while you will know
what to discaid and what to hold
onto. We must make this ‘home’
to the lad.” He hda to blow his
nose again, as he finished.
“It will be ” Karen said. They
w ould do everything in their pow
ei to make the little boy happy.
Ij Paul went with her father she
would be satisfied. How' nice it
was that hen father knew he could
call upon Paul; it proved that he
thought of him already as" a son.
Karen would probably have to rely
cn Paul’s help, too. for she did
not know much about little boys.
Goodness, so much was happen
ing all at once! It was like an
avalanche, so many changes, when
she had thought she did not w'ant
any.
“Well. I’ll run along,” Karen
said, giving her father one more
tight squeeze before she left him.
I know' you w’ant to pretend to
get busy. In fact, there’s Jane
now', armed with pad and pencil
and that determined glint in her
eve.” Jane Peters was another
distant cousin who lived in the
•tig house and w’ho served as Jim’s
secretary. “And I have a million
things to do myself.”
Don 1 try to do them all to
day,” her father advised, the old
twinkle returning to his eyes.
"Pretend, indeed—you are a sas
sy miss! I'll have you know your
father really has to use his gray
matter these days, with the mar
ket rising and falling like an old
tug on a high sea and the govern
ment threatening to tax us for
ever cent of profit . . .”
You have to have something to
grumble about.” Karen returned
in her old leasing tone. ‘‘Good

I’ll send Paul to take you on for

She blew him a kiss and closed
the door of the study behind her.
He was as strict about his hours,
from nine until two at his desk,
as if he were paid for them. But
maybe he did have a lot on his
mind, poor dear, with the busi
ness world and the government in
such a turmoil.
Certainly Karen now nad a lot
on hers. There was the. Festival

oversee, the arrival of Denise's
son, shopping that must be begun

she would have to start getting

be given as soon as her engage
ment was known. Heavens! She
would be kept in a whirl for the
next few months. Then if her wed
ding took place after the holidays
that would be another merry-go
tound. But as Jim had said, she
could not do them all in one day,
or even think about them at all
at once.
She was glad she had made a
resolution to get up for an early
dip and swim, and to breakfast
afterwards, with her dad. It might
be a good idea to resolve further
to devote her mornings to the
things that had to be done, to
work out a set schedule. She sup
posed there should be a schedule
with a little boy in a house. That
would make a big difference in
lots of ways.
