Four musicians, on a raised
platform at the far side of the

meticulous rhythm, swaying as

melody. About a dozen couples

Absently Janet glanced about
the room. Yes, it had been a mis-
take to come, but she must en-
dure the evening somehow. There
were some nice-looking people at
the next table. Two men and a
girl in black. It was the sort of
smart, expensive - looking black

Suddenly Mullins’ loud laugh-

Later when the orchestra leader
raised his baton to signal the be-
ginning of a new number, Janet
nodded, accepting Mullins’ invita-
tion to dance. It was a waltz this
time, an old song she liked. The
words sang themselves thru her
mind:
"Let me call you sweetheart.
I’m in love with you—"
Frank Mullins was humming
the tune. Oh, but she didn’t want
to be reminded of that song. It
brought back memories. She must
not think about them. She would
not let herself—!
Clumsily Mullins jolted her
gainst another dancer. The man
turned, smiling, to murmur, "Sor-
ry," Janet, embarrassed, raised
her eyes. She caught her breath
then, whispered, "Oh—!‘
The man was Rolf Carlyle and
he was dancing with Betty Ken-
