That's the spirit. Come on in the studio. I've had a fire there all day. I'll put on more wood."

The studio was warm. Ann sa down on a stool near the fire, watch

"We don't need a light, do we, darling?"

"No," Ann said. "It's nicer in the Arelight." Her face was very pale. "He's really not bad," Ann was reasoning. "It's just that he's lived

"Please, Allan. You must realize I can't stay here with you."

"Why not? Who will know any thing about it, anyway?" He was Amiling queerly.

This was a new Allan, Ann decided. A dangerous Allan, He had been drinking, not a littl DX she had thought at first, but entirely too much. The -evidence was in his bloodshot eyes, his haggard, flushed faco.

"Sure you won't have a drink?" he asked.

"No."

"lie's just a stupid boy," she was telling herself, "or he would never have planned this. He would never have dreamed of doing a thing like this, if he had not been drinking."

Stupid, half-drunk, Allan should not be difficult to putwit. She must play a role that would be utterly new to her.

"I love this room," Aun said. "Couldn't we have supper here?"

"Supper1"

He went into the kitchen and mixed another stiff drink. He drank it and poured more into his glass. He wont- ed to forget Ann's eyes. They har been frightened, appealing rather than

"Of course you are.

What a host I'm turning out to bel Let's raid the ice box."

All hor faculties were sharpened by danger.

Allan stooped, kissing her hair, and then went to the kitchen.

There were three exits. One at tho rear. It would be necessary to pass through the kitchen that way. These was a door leading outside from the an parlour. It was kent locked, but there would be a key in the lock if: Ann were lucky. Sometimes Sonny removed it. He was always remov Ing it. And prayed that the key would be there.

She would go into the front of the house, turn on the radio and then un- lock the door, putting the key in the lock on the outside. Then she would open the front door, come back, step through the side door, lock it and wali.

Allan's frat thought would he to look about probably. The door to them torlour would be locker and he wouldn't suspect her trick. He would dosh through the front door, get his

that he would make nu errors.
