gether — Frank Harrison and Kit Collins, Frank's tread heavy, Kit's springy and undefeated. Andrea, drifting to sleep, heard a door close. It didn't take Andrea long to get back on her feet. She was young and strong and there weren't any bones broken — only a baker's dozen of purple bruises to remind her of the crash. She stayed in the hospital for less than a week and then Frank Harrison's opulent car brought her home to the simple room behind Daddy Little's flower shop. When she entered the room she found that it was crowded with baskets of flowers and fruit; when she opened a square white box she discovered a satin negligee with matching mules. "For a precious invalid — with my love — " read the card that bore Frank's initials, and she held the negligee against her cheek, overwhelmed with gratitude and hating herself for having wavered, even subconsciously, in her determination to go through with her promise to marry Beechmont's leading citizen. Kit Collins didn't mean anything to her, she argued — he couldn't! He was only part of an adventure — only a fragment of a song that had broken, literally, in midair. There was no message from Kit to greet her on her return from the hospital — he hadn't sent any flowers or cards — he'd probably forgotten all about her, despite the hours under the plane's wing. "To Kit," she told herself resentfully, "I'm only one of many adventures. To a man of his sort — a daredevil who risks his life day after day — one woman is the same as another. . . . It's only — well, he had a good line and I fell for it and I'm ashamed of myself!" Andrea wanted to go back to school immediately — the moment her brain started working she'd be able to crowd Kit Collins out of it — but Frank put his veto on work. "If you knew how white and small you look," he told her tenderly, "you wouldn't talk such nonsense. Why, you'd fall on your face if you tried to stand up in front of your class and teach the three R's." So Andrea promised to rest until she was completely sure of herself. But — the question was a torment — would she ever be completely sure of herself as long as Kit's image floated in front of her like a mirage? ANDREA'S first day home from the hospital was spent in bed, with the satin negligee folded across the chair, beside her, so that she would be reminded every instant of Frank's goodness. Her second day she was up and around, helping Daddy Little in the shop, doing a thousand and one tasks, keeping her fingers and her mind occupied. It was toward twilight, when she was putting the choicest wares away in the tiny refrigerator, that she heard the shop door open softly and close with a decided bang. Thinking it was a late customer she whirled on her heel and saw Kit Collins. Kit — just as she had remembered him, with his tousled hair and his shirt open at the throat and his teasing smile. "Well, Teach," he asked, "got your land legs back again?" Andrea felt suddenly released. It was, she told herself, the way her own pupils must feel at the beginning of summer vacation. She said primly, "I'm perfectly well again, thanks — " and then, because it was OCTOBER, 1942 PERMANENT WAVE FOR COMPLETE HOME KIT Each KIT Contains 40 Curlers SHAMPOO and WAVE SET also included There is nothing else to buy.
