WHAT Has HAPPENED So FAR:
Before Private Fred Willis
marches off for a front line of-
fensive, he exchanges pledges of
love with Rose Duffy, the nurse
who has helped pull his closest
pal, Jimmy Davis, through a des-
perate wartime illness. Fred is
among the missing and Rose, in
response to Jimmy’s persistent
pleas, finally agrees to marry
him as soon an the war is over.
Fred having es. aped from a Ger-
man prison camp, reappears and
is stunned when Jimmy — who
knew nothing of his love for
Rose — tells him the news.
Chapter Five
Knowing that his affection for
Jimmy had been like that of an
older brother for a younger, weaker
one. Fred was bewildered. He had
to sit, and think, and meantime
show nothing of his emotions. If it
had been anyone else perched gaily
there across the table, he would
have risen and knocked him down.
But it wasn't. It was Jimmy.
"You certainly ain't lost no time,”
he remarked with a sort of wry
humor.
"You know how it is in wartime.
Fred."
"Anyways, I’m finding out.” re-
plied Fred. It was hard to conceal
the bitterness of his feeling, but
Jimmy had not noticed it.
"Rose and I never forgot you for
a minute,” said Jimmy, reaching
forward to grasp the other's wrist.
He paused and looked down at the
medals on his coat. "Besides, even
with these, I know Rose never
would have looked at me if I hadn't |
been trying to be like you.”
"So you’re — you’re all gone on
her, are you, kid?" Fred was stum-
bling along awkwardly.
"How am I going to make you
"I want to talk to you alone,”
answered Rose anxiously. “Can’t
you go outside?”
"Oh, come,” begged Fred. “We're
havin' fun. Sit down and join the
chorus.”
One of the girls half rose and
made a contemptuous remark. Rose
pushed her back in the chair aa
she said:
"I don't like your kind of fun'”
"There’s a woman for you!” ex-
claimed Fred in mock indignation.
"Kiss her a couple of times, and—”
"Fred, what's the matter with
you?" Rose interrupted. “What's
happened? I need your help. There’s
something terribly important for us
to think out.”
"Will you either sit down or go
home?" replied Fred rudely.
Rose refused to be insulted. After
a moment's pause she seized him by
the hair, and dragged him, wildly
protesting, across the restaurant.
Not until they had reached the side-
walk did she release him.
"This is about as good a time as
any for you to start tumbling to
the fact that you can't get away
with talking to me like that," she
said. "If I ever find you in there

Fred’s head was turned away.
Rose stared at him in puzzled
alarm.
"Fred, what's this big act all
about?” she demanded.

"Now you’re gettin’ it down fine,”
cried Fred. He moved his arms
about to demonstrate further, ns
he intoned a quatrain:
“Oh, my grandfather’s clock *
Was too wide for the shelf
So it stood ninety years
On the floor.”
"Teek-tock!" cried the apprecia-
tive and expectant mademoiselles,
in unison, as he came to a pause.
Fred glimpsed Rose out of the cor-
ner of his eye, but pretended not to
see her as he went on:
“It was made on the morn
Of the day that he was born
And it stood ninety years
Ry his side.
But it stopped short
Never to run again —”
“When ze awl man die!” cried
out the girls, who were all ready for
the last line before their tutor got
there “Teek-tock! Teek-tock!"
Rose had stepped quietly over to

first time.

he answered. "Meet Toto and Zig-

Rose with great restraint.
I “Rose, the old woman wouldn't

Fred. "You don't think you're the
first one I ever tried to shake her
for, do you?” He met her eyes, and
quickly averted her gaze.
"They told me you were dead,"
said Rose softly. "Well, as far as
I’m concerned you are, dead and
rotten.” She turned on her heel and
left.
Fred spun about quickly, took a
step after her, then paused. He saw
the two round-eyed faces of the
French girls in the cafe window.

and stepped inside.

The months raced past There
came a day in November when
every gun was silenced on the
Western front, when whistles blew
and bells rang jubilantly in every
part of the civilized world.
The war seemed a vague memory.
A nightmare to some, who lay in
hospitals with shattered limbs or
permanent shellshock. Others, like
Jimmy, had been caught up and
transformed mentally, getting new
conceptions of life and of the po-
tency of physical violence.
Fred had gone back to circus
work. Reaching a mid-West com-
munity a day ahead of his carnival,
he was crossing the main square
when a series of shots rang out.
Something inanimate, with arms
and legs, rolled into the street.
Sirent sounded. Policemen ran for-
ward to hold the crowd in check.
As he walked along Fred almost
bumped into Jimmy, coming out of
a hotel across the street. He was
very well dressed and looked pros-
perous. Excitedly he threw his
arms about him.
"Fred!" cried Jimmy happily.
"Look out," said Fred. “There’s
been a shooting down there."
"Another?" asked Jimmy in ap-
parent disinterest. "Say, when did
you get in?”
“Last night."
"And you didn't give us a ring?"
"How did I know you lived
here?”
“I wrote you,” answered Jimmy.
"Look, I’ve got to hurry to an ap-
pointment now, but you’ll simply
have to come for dinner." He drew
out a card that read: Adjuster —
Merchants’ Protective Association.
and pencilled his home address and
telephone on IL
“Afraid I can’t make it tonight,"
said Fred.
"You’ve got to," said Jimmy.
"Rose will be tickled to death,"
