In nn out burst of frankness Mjrm Ilrlggs, a serious minded joung. college friend, calls her to severe, task fop her thoughtless toying with Hcott Knsmonri's heart, Jack calls Itutli lip one afternoon and whisks her off to n beautiful npnrtment lie ha. leased as their future home.

Jack disapproves of this work. Ruth's nltltmle Is changing. XXVI IT WAS simply tho culmination ot all of the misgivings In Jack's mind that made him finally resolve to go away. Ho wanted to go away and think matters out, and to leavo nuth utterly free of his Influence for a time JiAt to see how matters wolud shape themselves. Ter haps the short vacation might even serve to decldo things happily for both of them, although tho doubt of thnt in Jack's mind wns already beginning to bother him. At least, ho reasoned, the vaca tion could do neither of them any harm. At first he had thought he would tell Ruth. He would go and see her and simply say that he was going away for a time. In Jack's vttcrly straightfor ward way of doing things, there was nothing of the dramatic, nothing to provoke Interest and pique through curiosity The idea of making rtuth wonder nbout his whereaboutB If he went away without telling her never oc curred to him. Then he met Myra Brlggs on the street, nnd something nbout Myra some how Invited Jack's confidence. It might have been the way he was feeling, it might have been the fact that he was looking out of sorts and worried thnt made Myra suddenly pity him, although she had told Iluth all manner of scath ing things about Jack's easy way of doing things. Dut they did stop and Myra said after the usual greetings "How's nuth? I haven't seen her In ever so long." Jack looked surprised. "Why, I thought you two saw each other often. I know you're responsible In a way for Ruth's new work." Myra looked instantly Interested and so surprised that Jack exclaimed again. "I guess she's been so busy, she hasn't had time to tell you about it." He con fessed. "What is it. war work, Jack?" "Oh yes, of a sort." "I take it that ou don't approve." Jack hesitated, "Well, not altogether," he said finally. "Gee, 1 haven't seen anything of her." Myra had it on tho tip of her ready tongue to say something stinging to the effect that It w-as the least he could sacrifice, when she stopped in time. She saw to her surprise that Jack's manner was not selfish, he was not conscious of any lack of patriotism. "He's simply unconscious ot It, thought the girl to herself wonderlngly. "I think I must hnve misjudged him. I don't think he's slacking work so much as he Is not thinking anything at all about It " Which, If the truth must be told, did a great deal toward boosting Jack in Mvra's critical soul. "Does she enjoy It?" Myra asked, dryly. "Tnjoy It? She tnlks of nothing else I can't get her to tnke an Inteiest In anj thing. I think t-he's changed" Hla tone was so full of boyish pain that Myra felt a quick stab of pity for him, even though she did not entirely ap prove of him.

Sho did not want to force a confe.nlon from Jack; aho wanted him to have plenty of tlmo to retract hla hastlncus If he liked. But Jack, who had talked out of the fullness of hlB heart to no one at all, was only too eager to tell Myra, who, straightforward as a boy, and lacking all the personal attractiveness that he feared In girls of tho smnrter Bet, seemed a fitting confidante. "I don't Imagine It," ho said almost fiercely. . "1 can't think, of anything else. I have Just decided to tell Iluth that I am going awny to think matters over and to give her a chance to do the same." "Let's walk along together," suggested Myra practically. "J don.'t vvnnt to lie late at the office. So you think you'll go away for a time 7" Jack nodded, ' "What do you think nbout It?" "I think it's a good Idea," npproved Myra. "If nuth has changed, it will Rive her a chance to know her own mind; If she's simply given over to tho war, k!)0 will miss you and realize that sho has neglected you. By the way Jack, why don't you do something yourself, If you have any ppare tlrre7" . Jack flushed a little, and Myra went on hurriedly. "You see, Iluth told me In the beginning that you couldn't go. I take It that It was something nerloUB th.tt would bnr you physically." Myra had no Teal Idea what was wrong with Jack; she simply wanted him to think a little bit nbout himself nnd his relation to the world, nnd she threw out her remark with malice aforethought. Jack tried to laugh nonchalantly, hut he did not answer Myra's question ns to why he did not do something. It had surprised him too much, surprised him with a new thought. "Yes, they turned me down," he said finnlly. "That was ton bad. wasn't It?" Jnck was silent a moment, then he STioke. "Yes. I felt tough about It In the beginning; It made me feel as If I didn't measure up somehow. But when It didn't matter to Iluth, nnd she promised to marry me, I was clad that I could be here to look out for her " Myra nodded understanding' As a matter of fact she had known ail along that .Inrlc had had thec feelings nbout exemption, even though nhe had not known Just how little thought he had devoted to matters until this minute They had reached the office bulldlnr where Myra worked, and they paused a moment In the doorwny. "If I were you. I'd go away nnd think matters over." Myra suggested, "and don't tell Iluth where vnu are going. Let her think you were cnlled nway It neces "irv and cu'd not snr "ind-by to hr Really. Jack, It's good for her and for vou too," Myra added ns she mw his face. "And perhaps you'll think of some war work you can get Into " Mvra added as though It wns nn afterthought of hers. As a matter of fart she said It deliber ately. She wanted Jack to think of moro than Just his own affair and Tluth's while he wns rwav she wanted mm to think or his relat'on to the war nnd to the nation as well.
