can carry you bark years and years was whirled hack In my teens for a few minutes Janet was looking at the picture What a tiny little house it was Somehow though father had them at different times ho about those boyhood days the early privation the heroic courage of their grandfather and grandmother he had also dwelt so lovingly on the Joys of that boyhood home that she had never realized how dreadfully poor fath ers family must have been Almost she glanced around the comfortable big living room with luxuries on every hand These were certainly belter days she was glad her own childhood had been so of Mm WHAT THE OLD Some boys think it is silly and unmanly lo help with house work especially with the wash ing of dishes and others very willing to help their mother or sister dp this necessary task Of course dish washing is not the thing in the world and most boysand girls loo rather do anything about the house Chan the dishes but hoy who will offer to help his sis ter or his mother when he sees her working those homely lit tle tasks is the kind of boy who will succeed in life because ho will ho to do what his hands find to dp If to keep and cook you will find that you put your knowledge to good use camping with of about is reported to eases wests ferent from fathers the fiaine feeling was in Ruths mind too as she bent over the pictures Happily father was too in the old to notice the peculiar look on hie daughters faces I wish Louise wab here he said suddenly 1 thought at first Id wait till she came back from school before I showed my pictures hut well I guess the truth Is like a boy with a new top I couldnt bear lo wall I His daughters laughed lightly with him Janet laying her hand for a moment on his going lo have lids enlarged father went on and framed such a good film Itll bear consider able enlargement And heres a picture of the folks that are living in the old world of her And Is worth her weight In gold which Is saying a good deal for shes pretty I should say so Janet rather Yes and tell you the older I get the more feel the ties of blood said her father You girls will feel It too asyou grow older Now heres father said with n long look at plain strong face of bis first cousin a weve kept up with each other but we both promised to turn over leaf Hes a man all way through Some day Ill tell you whal Home of the neighbors told me about the stand he took oh dome town questions when needed born leader and a clean fearless num Talk about I He shows bis hi the finest kind of way he Something had uncon sciously crept Into the fathers his championship of the absent cousin It was as if he felt a sort off In his daughters where he had expected something very -differ- Five mhiues later ho was going slowly up the stairs with the portfolio of pictures The girls dont to think much of them tie said rather heavily to his wife and I must say Im disappointed Janet and both have great Ideas about family and blood and theyre proud of be longing to the Mayflower they have that those same ancestors wouldnt own to They are young said the mother and have a great deal lo learn Suddenly there was a Bound of girl ish feet on the stairs and In another moment Louises bright fare looked In Oh the pictures father Did you get thorn unpacked And I wasnt here With almost a touch of reluctance father began once more to take out his treasures Hut bomehow before he knew it he felt the return of Ids first boyish enthusiasm over them Oh father you darling To think of that being the little house you were born In 1 How lovely hat you could get such a good picture of It I And oh Is that the apple tree youve told us about the one where you used to get the watercores That very Identical tree I said her father laughingly But how did you Ask

theyre not as a laugh slipped out father people They are fine people father said defensively And they arc kindness itself to me letting me roam over Ibe house as It were still ours Why they turned me loose in the old attic It was a wet drizzly day so I heard the rain on the roof just as I used to love lo listen to In my boy hood Janet and made an Inarticulate sound that was meant to express sym pathy Willi fattier and something else too Just what was It Some how father was losing some of the pleasure of Ills pictures He hesitated an almost Imperceptible moment be fore he drew out another packet of snapshots There are some of our real kinsfolk he said the Baker cousins you know Hes on the old place a mile beyond where I was reared He has a fine family of young folks all doing well and well you can see for yourselves Janet took the group picture and surveyed rather critically So thats the whole family of Maker cousins Is it And she laughed though she over suddenly to kiss him Theyre all right of course and they do look good and substantial and all that but oh dear I wouldnt have some of the girls I know see these for anything Just after weve been taken into the Mayflower Des cendants too I Why father you ought to see the lovely old painted portraits the Ellis girls have their father is straight in descent from one of the earliest Plymouth govern ors and Mm Bills too Ellis Ellis said father thought fully Do you mean John Ellis that was mixed up In that bank scandal a fellow no one trusts Why yes father rather resentfully I suppose it was his money that saved from States Prison and I must say I never exact ly liked him myself but hes of splendid family Their library and diningroom are Just Hoed with family portraits Something in her fathers brought a little sigh of Impatience In to her voice as she said Yes the Bills girls are very proud of their library They have the back dont know how far and the coal of arms Mrs Ellis Is of splendid family too you know Hrnml said father thoughtfully turning over the pictures He hesitat ed a moment then produced again the One of Cousin Baker I dont know where youd see a finer face than that l he I asked the girls to write to you but perhaps would be belter if you dropped line to them first Theyre a little shy tut as girls as you ever saw I told them theyd have to visit us another year sure A faint sound frotn Janet and Ruth together made him look up Whats the matter be asked Bonl you want them to come Why girls theyre a to any Heres Caroline sweet as at and bow IhhrtLi remember about It Why of course I remembered Ive always loved everything you and toother could tell me about your selves before I had the privilege of knowing you If It iBnt lovely to have these pictures And arent they the dearest people to make you feel so at home there Well I Even letting you rummage the attic I Whos this father What a splendid strong face I Thats Cousin Baker Hes one of the big men in that township Not much money but a born leader and he stands for everything that is good and progressive too These are bis girls their latest pictures Nice girls as you ever saw Louise Not much used to city ways but fine true young women I like their looks Louise said after a long close scrutiny wouldnt it be nice If they could visit us sometimes We have so few re latives on our side Ive often thought of it and It does seem such a shame not to keep up with those we have did ask them said her father and Janet who had slipped quietly into the room soon after Louises entrance said nothing somehow their expressions were quite different from those they had worn a halfhour before- Perhaps they were beginning to sec the disappoint ment that their own reception of the pictures must have been to father possibly a dim realization had come to them that after all they were not living up to their principles as mem bers of the Mayflowers Descendants I Dear dear little house I Louise had picked up again the snapshot of the little old farmhouse and suddenly pressed it to her face Ive always longed to see the place where you were born Why cant all go there sometime We make so many other trips No reason in the world why we should not said her father your mother suggested the same thing Its a pity how how luxury sort of spoils us sometimes Isnt it Louise said thoughtfully slowly as If she found difficulty In choosing her words Why we get so used to easy and luxurious we dont half remember all the straits people had to years and years ago to make things so pleasant for us now When we Joined the Mayflower Descendants It all seemed to come over me how how unworthy I really was to belong Theres that old diary of Grandmas thai you let us read and her mothers They didnt realize did they half how wonderful and brave they were In those pioneer days didnt realize when you were a tiny barefooted boy all those mites lo school and helping every way you could at home you didnt have any idea how strong and fine it was making you and what you were going to mean to all of us by and by did you J she laughed rather shakily Well Its something to live up to only somehow I feel sort of ashamed to have had everything made so easy for me all my life long Why Louise I Fathers voice was tender and he threw an arm around Ids daughter fill the bill any where and any time youd have as good a pioneer as any of them Ho was pulling away the treasured pictures now with a happy expression on his Louise had back to the full In them that his other daughters had robbed him of for a little time faces of Janet and
