As the orchestra began again th old-fashioned sweetness of string; and piano that heralded Emilia's second turn, she saw with dismay that Manny had joined Dick and Roger and was standing stiffly by the r table. Then it was to him that the note had been written. For a moment panic held her. then she re laxed. remembered that Manny wa.i not only the closest-mouthed indi vidual on earth but also that he had always hated Dick heartily. Smiling as she must, she faced her audience and sang. One of th4 girl* was waiting for K Fays To Advertise In The Daily Dispatch BIG SISTER \ v ; Presto!

B nKrKlrtr 1 rfe ®K \<* WO*K 'IWTWE CAN WH§ WHDERSON, (W. C.) DAILY DISPATCH? FRIDAY, excellent time tut the crossing, despite the fact that she was held up at Gibraltar with turbine trouble. The Rex is 880 feet long, has seven deck* and accom modal ion for 2.000 passengers. "> i ■» m»v . ante oft ’he dais, ''Mr lUve sent tor you. Someone he wants you to meet." I'milta’s hand went to her throat. Rut one mustn't be a coward. And she wvubi he to Roger for that moment. Whether that girl with him was his wife or his sweetheart, she would see him. speak to him! So far as anyone could see, when she bad made that long, that dream like passage between the crowded lit tle tallies to them, she was quiet. cjuietly. I‘gtatly. she came, the hood of her long, rose velvet cape drawn forviard about her yellow hair. The unpainted face she lifted to them in a courteous half-greeting was a tra gic mask of dead whiteness. Involun tarily. her hand flew to her throat again. Esther felt Dick Stoddard's hand stoking Into her shoulder we he stead ied himself. But Roger’s face was flooded with strange color and de light, He very nearly caught Emilia in his arms “Emilia," he said, his voice like a happy boy's. “It's you! You're alive. It’s Emilia!** She answered evenly, with a mag nificent control. “I —I wasn't killed, Roger. It’s Emilia.” Kay stiffened like a cat. Emilia Valaty all romance, all glamour still. “Won’t you speak to me, Emilia?” Dick pleaded. There was too much intensity In his voice for the words. But Emilia moved closer to Manny, as tr for shelter. He laid a reassuring hand on her arm and said. “There’s your music.” Emilia looked at Roger, but in the crashing shock of him Dick's nearness was a lesser thing. It was strange. She had thought all these years that meeting Dick would be the most dreadful thing that could happen to her. She answered him casually, smiling as one does at an old acquaintance. “How ure you, Dick? You have changed very little.” An invisible curtain of control dropped between them as it had be tween Kay and Roger. Dick had sunk down by the table, nearly over come. Kay was blazing angTy in her silence; Manny miserable for his Emilia, shifted hands and feet like a schoolboy. But Roger and Esther and thia strange Emilia Valaty from be hind the crevasse of the war days were cool and unbroken. The steady eyed man of affairs, the painted cost war child and the \eiHrw-haited girl ish woman with the tawdry mask and the tawdry uoi.i-Uc-tUcutrc spoke on with tlie same control in this shaken moment. “This Is Esther, Emilia.” Roger said. "You remember the baby Esther we used to play with?” Emilia smiled at the girl, her face turning tender. “She is the same Esther. I think.” Esther smiled back at her. Sha laid the toy mallet she had been hold ins deliberately against her dps. Emilia bent her head. “You were wise, even then.” she said. “Wise and quiet.” She turned to Roger. “Hav# you children of your own?” •*rio,” he said, “I never marrlbd.'* “You were engaged,” she said, whitening, “to Abby.” They had forgotten the Ottawa. “Abby? I don't re member arty Abby. I was engaged to but on« woman In my life. You know ft, Emilia.” “Abby Gray, my roommate on ttxf boat. She told me so. She had teMf you she cared, you liked her for H, you were going to be married.” “She was mad or lying. Yes. I re member her now. I never saw her after I saw you. She wrote me a couple of the hysterical letters glrla wrote men In wartime. You must have known better, Emilia.” “I have thought so—all this time," Emilia said in a low voice. Manny suddenly laid his long, olive hand with its big diamond on Emilia’s bare shoulder. There was kindness in the gesture, as if he knew she was hard beset—but there was possessiveness, too. “Go up and sing now,” he said. “You go up and sing.” She dragged her cloak about her as if she needbd shelter; she was gone, hurrying between the little, crowded tables. Roger followed her. unmindful of the staring people about them. He caught her arm. "I never loved anyone but you," he said low. “I can't wait till tomorrow. Tell me now what I see In your facet Tell me you know now you love m* that we should have been together all these years.” She turned away that strangely girlish face of hers. Slie fixed on Its mask. While he stood watching, sta* was gone, hurrying ep the runway to the place where she must sing.
