You can choose between us, You can call ne at home, But if you go out with Tucky Louellan, don't you © ever set foot in my house again." She was off down the walk in a flash of lavender. Marie looked after her wonder- ingly. He hadn't had much exper- fence with girls, But one thing he had decided in a very short time. They were certainly hard to figure out. And another thing was begln- ning to puzzle him; he had always been led to believe that a man was supposed to do the rushing. But _ Tucky and Lisa certainly didn't pay much attention to that old-fa- shioned theory. 2 "Gram had never enjoyed eaves. dropping quite so much. in her life. Making A Fool of Him "Too bad shé went off in such a cloud of dust," the old lady said, wiping tears of laughter from her eves, She picked up her sewing.

All the girls, especially Tucky and Isisa, are just mad about you! Well, it's "darn funny it's ull happening S0 suddenly. Since you made a fool out of yourself and went out and spent a lot of money on a new car!" . . 'That's rot the reason they are nice to:me," Marlle's stung pride shouted back at her. "I'm just get- ting started going around, I never was allowed to go out till mother went away, How do you know that 1 couldn't have dated any one that I wantéd to go out with?

The fact that two of the prettiest girls in Lee- brook were fighting for his soclety had 'become a very pleasant, if a héctic experience, Judy daring to git there and tell him they had an ulterior motive was too much for his newly-born masculine conceit to bear. i "Is 'that so?"
