Sho could not fence with him. her reason left her and her mind tMmed paralyzed. She hoped now that r, would not question her about tho tUn she spent with Bill of late. Anne wis not afraid of Bill, and sho no lonrer suffered him. If he bullied her, he laughed If he nsked questions, sho parried them. Their time together had teen tpent In bickering back and forth. ind each Uslt of Bill's generally ended In a fit of sullenness on his part and an arly departure.

"I'm sure It was Anno," confided Oherrv, In that soft sweet way of hers. "But how could sho ever know tho. Car. Bntfrs? It seems Impossible." Bill was thinking 'deeply. Ho was trying to put two and two together. Tho whole thing seemed so Incongruous, so unlike Anno, and yet was It unllko Aruic. the Anne ho had known of lato? Hadn't he wondered again and again what had given her that solf-assuranco, that added Independence and poise? But j to how she had managed things he had no Idea. Ho would have to find that out. "Well," ho said turning to Cherry as though the subject of Anne was secon dary In Importance to him anyway, "So much for that." Ho did not want to talk of Anne Just then. Cherry wns too attractive, and Corlnno was at tho piano playing soft minor things, and It v,&s Just the atmosphere for a flirta tion. He electrified Anne, however, n few dar later by nsklng hor quite casually: "What's this I hear about you and the Carpenters?" Anne turned whlto as drlvon Bnow. Everything swam about her, tho ques tion was so sudden and so vital, and ahe was so utterly unprepared for It. If Hill Snder had had any doubt of the fact that Anno did know these people, It was gone forever now. Anne's face was nn open mirror that any one could read.
