and Mrs. Carl Schnebly. They left the first ofj the week to make their home in JT was just like Mike not to let her know he was coming. Not that there was any definite reason why he should. Cassie Fletcher folded the eve ning paper carefully and put it on the worn step beside her.

Her hands w-ere trembling a little. "Mike Cargill, once reported missing, prisoner in a German camp, long hospitalized, due home tomorrow. Town prepares welcome for one of its heroes. That was what the paper had said. The last streamers of August sunlight lay across the porch.

Pungent smoke from Papas aftersupper pipe floated from the porch swing where he lay reading the want-ad section. Mama rocked placidly at the other end of the porch, making a loose board creak rhythmically From indoors came the sound of Sid and Lems quarreling as they coped with the supper dishes. "Leni1 Mamas voice rose petulantly. "Let Sid dry if he wants to, this time. He washed last night! Leni came to the screen door.

It ruins my hands. Mama. It simply ruins my hands. Her voice was tearful And I just got fresh polish on! Hes doin it a purpose! And anyway, it wouldnt hurt him to do the dishes alone! Mama got up, sighing heavily, and lumbered inside. Cassie began to think about Mike Cargill again.

The day hed left. She could still see him, coming along the platform, his small, compact figure swinging along, his hair almost blue in the sunlight, his eyes that queer electric blue that never fades, and with a sort of hardness in them. Yet Mike wasnt hard "Hello baby hed said, his deep voice lifting a trifle, as if he hadn't known shed come down to see him off. Well, I guess this is it. She'd been a little let-down at the way hed said it.

Other couples were clinging together, kissing And Mike just stood there grinning at her like a small boy off on some daring trip. Hed smoked a cigaret and had nothing much to say. But hen the tram came grinding to a stop he grinned at her again and kissed her, a hard, exciting kiss that she Could still feel, she remembered it so welL TTIS letters had been few and far between and very short those three years hed been gone. Well, there hadnt been anything definite between them, anyhow. But Cassie was in love with Mike CargilL She'd had dates with other fellows but they hadnt meant a thing Thered been Mike in her heart, filling it completely, all the time.

Tomorrow he'd be home! Cas-sie's heart skipped a beat. Papa rapped his pipe on the porch railing and cleared his throat "You goin to the depot tomorrow, Cass He pronounced it dee-pot" Cassie shook her head. I couldn't get off," she said. "They're goin to have quite a doin's for that Cargill fella. Thought you might ask off and go." "And get docked for a whole days work and lose my tune and a half Saturday" Cassre said.

She jumped up and started inside, VIC FLINT By MICHAEL OMALLEY AND RALPH LANE ECOND flinging the paper into rocker. She hadnt meant to sound rude to Papa, and she hadn meant to let it slip out about not wanting to lose pay. It wasnt exactly Papas fault that his rheumatism kept him from working regularly at anything, that most of the financial burden of the family fell on her shoulders. She went out to the kitchen, smoothing at the wrinkles in the front of her yellow linen dress She tried to take the dishrag out of Mama's hands. 4 That good-for-nothing little Leni' she said.

"Mama, how many times do I have to tell you its not good to give in to her like that! Oh go on, Cassie, Id as soon wash em as not, and youll spoil your dress, Mama whined helplessly. Her blue eyes watered a little Anyway, Lems got a date with the Cavendish boy again. "The Cavendish boy! Cassie echoed. She reached for the apron that hung in back of the door. Then she appropriated Sids dish-towel and shooed him out of the kitchen Leni certainly is going up the world' But shes too young to have so many dates.

Mama. You know that. And especially with older fellows. "I tried to tell her, Mama sniffed But you know how she is when she gets her head set on something. Mama's DRIVE TO FOIR CORNER.

Her bright hair was caught to the top of her head and held with three or four blue daisies of the same shade of blue as the sweater. She looked defiantly at Cassie, her full lower bp stuck out in a pout.

Cassie laughed suddenly. Oh all right, Leni, she said She turned around and began stacking the dishes. Leni pranced out, slamming the front screen behind her, and there was the sudden hoot of a car horn in front of the house. That would be the Cavendish boy. A tiny icicle of warning traced its way up Cassie's spine.

What did Lain Cavendish see in Leni He usually ran around with the crowd up on the hill. The Martin girl. Bryn Mawr and Country Club, mink coats and real pearls, was his usual style. When Mama finished at the sink, she limped out to the front porch again The rocker began to creak. Papa turned on the small porch radio and the sound of the music came faintly to Cassie, as she walked back and forth putting things away.

It set her to thinking about M.ke again, about the times when they used to go out to Joes Barbecue and put nickels the juke box and dance. Joes Barbecue wasnt 'even there any more.
