Page four Winnipeg free press tuesday july 19, 1938 off the record by de Reed his wife makes him Wear goes mad when he has to walk the mortal storm by Phyllis chapter 35 Tou Are very kind Amelia said after rather a Long pause. She seemed to be trying to smile again but though her lips curved her eyes looked curiously empty. I will bring Freya to Maberg with great pleasure but i can make no undertaking about the marriage. You see such things no longer remain in the hands of parents. The Young people must Settle it for them selves. Naturally my husband and i have nothing whatever against the match but we should not press it on the child. I think too that i ought to Tell you. That though i c j not believe there was anything of a serious nature Between Freya and the boy Shock of seeing him killed before her eyes no Light matter she is very altogether physically per haps. It is even possible that though i can bring her to you As soon As you suggest both her mind and body have received one of those Sharp impressions that Are difficult to get Over. As to the University she cannot go Back there for two months. Her father thinks it will take quite As Long As that to get Over the physical Shock and the authorities prefer her being away for the rest of the term. My husband has however made arrangements with the University and with the Hospital so that she May return after the sum Mer holidays Are Over. He has As you know retired officially but he has remained on Good terms with his late colleagues so that it has been possible for him to make these arrangements and to Safe guard her future. I beg that you will not Dis courage her studies for her mind needs that particular we cannot foretell the future but at present we do not contemplate her resigning her career. It is an honorable one and Freya has already won great distinction. It is possible the authorities told my husband that there May be women doctors allowed for Only a limited number. I am deeply grateful to you and Hermine for your invitation but i cannot accept it unless it does not imply any definite agreement either As to the marriage or to Freya s giving up her profession. I could not bind the child in any Way just is already too Ulrich was a tender hearted Man much As he disliked having to re turn to Hermine with her conditions set aside for she had insisted on refusing Freya their hospitality unless she came As a penitent with a future to be moulded entirely by he disliked even More giving pain to his old love. He saw that Amelie was suffering and he thought of Little Freya with her Jolly laugh quenched and her sparkling eyes dimmed with tears. No he would not have anything More taken forcibly away from her at the Momen on they could try new methods of persuasion. Besides who knew but what the nazis would tighten up this question of men s professions so that not even a few exceptional women Wou d be allowed to work out of their sphere As to the marriage with Fritz since this peasant boy was safely would soon assume a Glamour that Bottome special men s suits dry cleaned and pressed called for and delivered.

Girls As Ulrich von Maberg has occasion to know Are very Seldom Adamant where they have no Choice. He made a Large and sweeping gesture with his hand. We will leave both questions he assured Amelie. Sensi Tive creatures girls i i remember the first Man i saw killed myself a dead Man is a serious sight and if she had a childish fancy for the you Are very generous Amelie told him with that queer faint smile on her lips again. There is one More Point you should understand Freya has no idea at All that Fritz sided or that her brother Olaf took any. Part in the murder. She believes that they heard it was to take place and came up the Mountain to help her too late to Stop it. My husband and i think that for the present at any rate she should keep this perhaps it would be us Rich agreed kindly. It might put her off Fritz if she heard of it too soon. But i m pretty confident Shell turn to Fritz in the Long run you see things will become very different in the future with Hitler in Power. I got a whiff of some thing today and when the supreme Power drops into his then look out for the jews i can t say i m sorry Hus band and his family they re not a race i care to see battering our Good German blood Nasty Sharp witted grasping austrians have always Turied up your noses at them so you la agree with me i feel sure that it won t be a bad thing to see them put in their Amelie said in a very voice with her eyes cast Down not Al together he Felt for a moment a Little Aken Aback. Amelie ought As a Rattenbach to despise jews. She d married one of Only a second marriage penniless for von Rohn had soaked up All her Noney As Well As what he could a hands on from the von Rohns estates with two infant sons it was the Only sensible thing to and like the sensible Young woman she had done it still there should be no reason to sup pose that she d liked it much bet Ter than her first marriage. The nazis had quite seen his Point about Freya fortunately. With her Mother a Rattenbach one married to von with a considerable Roth should be protected especially if she married a Maberg and devoted herself to the nazi cause. Rose to her feet a very faint Light scent came from her Squirrel coat As Ulrich lifted it a scent that reminded him of Sunshine in a Wood and that brought Back to him in a Flash the image of a boy face downwards on wet leaves cry ing his heart out for a girl who would never be his. He had forgotten that he had once possessed such wild and romantic feelings but As he slipped the fur coat Over her slender shoulders us Rich wished that he could kiss the whiteness of her neck. The cafe Haag was unfortunately too Public a place for such a demonstration. Amelie shivered As she Felt his eyes upon her Ulrich thought with a of Mastery that she realized what he was reciprocated it. As Long As Rudi stayed with her Freya Felt human again he re minded her of a Hans she had nearly live Hans of her Joy. She Felt released from that terrible twitching figure on the Snow but As soon As Rudi was gone the other figure came Back. She could not rid her eyes or her heart c. Him. Time did not show her How it passed but one by one the things in her room grew shapeless until the soft Twilight blotted out the intolerable Day. Her Mother came into the room very slowly and quietly. She pulled the curtains across the windows and turned on a smal Reading lamp behind the bed. She Bent Over Freye to see if she were still asleep seeing that her eyes were open and said very quietly but with firmness Freya we shall have to go to Maberg a blazing anger Tore through Freya s heart to go to Maberg was to insult her grief. It was to mock that pitiful figure on the Snow by the insane injustice of and Well. Even though her Mother said Over and Over again Fritz will not be Freya failed to understand this violation of her privacy. At least at Home she could be alone with her and now her Mother of All people in the one who knew her this fresh out rage her Mother kept repeating like a cuckoo clock her one mad note must go to that King a1nt done a thing about.

That univ fortuk4e is coming was s just to add a that she ear from Rue f1cst adm1m istra Tloka. But Why. Demanded. Her Mother said something in conclusive and incredible about the nazis and their police methods. Freya sat Bolt upright and let anger quicken her whole body so that she could once More move swiftly and drive her will into the shapeless hours. She tried to think How she could shake her Mother s inflexible be Hind Freya s anger and dismay hid itself from was an ally who might Spring to her help could she but think of his name. At last the name flashed before her eyes and filled her with wild Relief. But Mother Olaf where is she cried. If the police want to see me he could Stop them he could Tell them everything him he was there i saw him standing by me in the Snow let them ask him what her Mother s face did not change its expression it still held its tender but implacable it was much older that Freya thought yesterday can t be yesterday All this must have happened years Olaf has been sent away from the Amelie explained gently Fritz von Maberg for the present Darling he cannot help Freya s eyes widened into a deeper horror. Mother she whispered have they killed Olaf for trying to save her Mother said quickly no no i give you my is Safe he will come not for Sev eral is still Here. He will drive us to Maberg. Your father has been to the you Are to go Back there. Your work can go you Are to take two months leave. It is Al most a condition that you should go into indeed you will be better there for a into the Freya said slowly pressing her temples with her hands As if to push the pain Back out of her Way. But Mother i am to be in the country i do not belong to belong to Hans people on the Wetterstein it is there that i must go there was a Long silence. Freya watched her Mother under knitted brows every nerve and muscle of her body was tense and stiff As if mortal storm continued on Page 19 the Nebbs Ace. Whom Jack cd freed from owl.
