Surely that was the best way to forget what might have been, not to think of what was going to be. The only way she knew to try to fill that aching emptiness. Ob, she was doing a real "Oh, I‘m not in any hurry," Sally returned, stopping to lay a light caress on her father‘s forehead. That was not exactly true; she was in a hurry now. Outside Corey‘s horn already was honking imâ€" patiently for her to join him. Sally wanted to be in a hurry. Then there was not time to think â€" or to reâ€" member. "I‘m not rushing into anyâ€" thing, Daddy." NOT IN ANY HURRY "I‘m not in any hurry to lose my little girl," Mr. Blair said. Especialâ€" ly not in any hurry to lose her to young Porter, he might have added. But he had nothing in particular against the boy, except that he was a bit wild, had had too much of the good things of this world. If Sally was sure he was the right man for her, her father would have to be satisfied, too. He did not see as much of Sally as he had for awhile, so that he did not find it easy to talk these matters over with her. He had hoped that if Sally must make a choice of one of the numâ€" erous young men who always had elustered around hber like bees buzâ€" zing over a flower that it would be someone like young Reynolds. But he must have been mistaken in thinking that Sally had been taken with the lad. She would not have forgotten him so soon, when he went away unoxpectedly. Sam Blair bad been sorry about that. But he had been convinced that the lad had had a good reason; that in time he would return to offer it. He was not as convinced row that Sally, alâ€" though she wore Corey Porter‘s ring on her slender finger, was in love with him. "I hope you won‘t rush into this marriage," her father said. He was troubled about his daughter. He was not at all sure she was happy these days, She was too feverishly gay, too restless, too eager. Her dark eyes were much too bright to suit him. Like my heart, Sally thought, as she watched them â€" and leaned down swiftly to gather them into the palm of her hand, to let a tear fall on them. The last tear, she reâ€" solved fiercely, that she ever would shed over Dan Reynolds. If only she could have turned her love to ashes as simply as this, tossing it back into the flames again! ENGAGED TO COREY She wore Corey‘s big doamond on the third finger of her left hand now. She was supposed to be enâ€" gaged to him. Corey had made up her mind for her. Sally, dancing until dawn, partying, laughing, and playing the part of the gay glamour girl once more did not have any mind to make up. Nor any heart. Only a dull emptiness, taking the place of the old ache, where her heart once had been. She had no use for his létter now; she would never read it over again. She did not even read it when she took it out of its hiding place. She tore it into tiny frag ments, deliberately, cruelly with the dangerous brightness in her dark eves. A brightness that was not satâ€" isfied even then, She carried the fragments to the fire burning in the grate in her lovely bedroom; she tossed the pieces into the flames. She watched them crumple around the edges, shrink up into a pitiful small heap of gray ashes. Blair again, did not believe in Dan Reynolds. She would forget that she had ever known him. CHAPTER XXI The first thing that Sally did in the process of trying to forget the Sally that Dan had not wanted, was to destroy the letter that she had kept locked so long in her jewel case. She told herself that Dan was a coward, since he had run away. She toid herself that the tables had turned, that she, the old Sally Last week: Sally accepts Corey‘s ring in a moment of impulsiveness, thinking she will never hear from Dan again.

Or she could not go on pretending. She might as well take this way of facing it. Dan had left her world. She could go back to his. Perhaps then she could put him out of her heart forever, fill that emptiâ€" It might remind h>r of Dan. Or it might prove that she had forgotâ€" ten him. It might convince her that the things she told herselft were true, that she no longer cared for Dan, that she no longer believed in him. But Sally said, "Of course,. I‘d like it very much, Corey." She did not cry out in protest. What if it did bring back this stifling nostalgia, start her heart hammering again? At first, which was why she had not answered right away, Sally had wanted to cry out, No, no! She had anted to say I don‘t wont to go anyâ€" where where there is skiâ€"ing, I don‘t want to cilmb to the top of any mountain. For all of that would reâ€" mind her too vividly, too poignantâ€" ly of Dan. Dan who had been tho King of the skiis. Dan who belongâ€" ed in that white world of the big outdoors. She was glad thoy were travelling at such a fast speed. She was glad that Corey could not look into her eyes. That he thought she had not heard him above the roar of the motor. For then he would not be able to hear her heart‘s painful hammering. He could not see the pain in her dark eyes‘ depths. Her answer came promptly this time. "Of course. I‘d like it very much, Corey," Sally ~aid. 4A SKIING PARTY He threw a brief sideâ€"glance at her, wanting to see how she would like his surprise. But her face was averted. He only could see the sweet curve of her cheek, the long sweep of her lashes. She did not answer for a moment, so that he though she might not have heard him and said again, "You would like it, wouldn‘t you, Sally?" "I have a surprise for you," he told her, as they whirled along the white road at the fast, reckless speed that carried them through all the hourse they spent together. "I‘m going to get a party together, all the old gang, and go up to Lake Placid for the skiâ€"ing. Soon after Christmas. The snow should be just right by then. We should have a very gay time of it. What do you say, my sweet, would you like that ?" Corey jumped out of his roadâ€" ster to open the door for her. His blue eyes surveyed her with admirâ€" ation and approval. Approval that held the pride of possession. She was so pretty, his Sally, so sweet, so gay. Her dark eyes were so very bright, her cheeks so flushed. She looked so like a princess in her beautiful fur coat with its matching fur cap under which her dark curls escaped to frame her lovely face. She had been worth fighting for, worth waiting for, worth winning. And Corey had won, as he had alâ€" ays hg3d known he would. ‘"There is no one else," Sally said. And flinched because it was so true. If only there had been, if only that someone had wanted her, then she would have been sure, oh, very sure indeed. "Don‘t fret about me, darling!" She dimpled at her father, in the gay old way, to reasâ€" sure him. She laughed, almost too gaily; she blew him another kiss, before she ran out of the room, and down the long flight of steps, into a white world covered with a thick blanket of snow, the first of the season. good job, as she had promised herâ€" self she would, of being the old Salâ€" ly Blair again. DO YOU LOVE HIM? But not quite good enough to satâ€" isfy her father‘s keon, loving eyes. ‘"Tell me one thing," he said, beâ€" fore he relinquished her after that light caress. "Do you love Corey, my dear? Are you sure he is the one you want? I rather hoped it might be someone else at one time my dear." He did not need to name Dan Reynolds. Sally would know whom her father meant. Offâ€"theâ€"Face and Forward Tilted Models Are Being Now Shown $ CLEANâ€"CUT LINE 7 (To Be Continued) NEA SERVICE, InC. More people got married in 1989 than ever before in the history of England and Wales, according to figures released by the Registrar General. Most of the marriages occurred during .&e crisis and the war period o e latter half of the year. The marriage rate expressed in number of persons married per thousand of the population was 21.1.

The answer was "no" and conâ€" sisted of reports from 30 differâ€" ent departments, boards and branches of the government serâ€" vice, each stating either that Mr. Ross was not employed by that branch or that the branch had no information on him.

First of all, don‘t have anything in your house that is neither useful nor pleasing to your artistic sense. Don‘t buy more furniture at the beginning than you really need. The more you have the more work to be done. You can always add later. Another thing, don‘t choose furniture that is only raised about half an inch from the ground â€" this will mean wou‘ll have to shift it every time you clean, or grovel on your hands and knees.

Otherwise scrape or pare thinly. 2. Save cooking water from vegetables, or liquid from canned vegetables and use as stock in soups. COOKING HINTS 1. Use little water for cooking, except for strongly flavored vegeâ€" tables. 7. Familiarize yourself with the meaning of "government grades" for food. 6. When possible buy foods in large quantitiese to get price reâ€" ductions. 4. In buying the cheaper cuts of meat, select those with little bone or waste. 5. Foods in bulk usually are cheaper than those in packages. 3. Cheese may replace some of the milk or meat in ones diet. An ounce of Canadian cheese may be used in place of a glass of milk. 1, Use foods "in season" when the price is lowest. 2. When fresh vegetables are high in price, buy canned vegeâ€" tables, particularly tomatoes as they retain their total food value in canning.

FOR REFTUGEE CHILDREN By sending twelve pounds of the woollen scraps to the Northern Textiles Company at Chesley, Ontâ€" aria, a bed cover can be made for $3.00, a saving of $1.25, suggests the Scarborough Junction branch president, Mrs. A.
