INSTALLMENT III "No, but seriously, Van," Gail pre- Sently began in a delicious flutter but with a sensible and businesslike alr, "seriously, when did you come and why, and how long are you go- ing to be here, and what about Yale?" : "Seriously--" Van Murchison an- swered dutifully although still vis- ibly abrim with laughter and ex- citement, "seriously--but are you walking home?" "I am. My honest working day Is done." Laughter. Van put his hand with delightful familiarity under her el- bow. They turned toward the Law- rence house some three or four blocks away. "Isn't it amazing how the old place has grown?" "Well, isn't it? But you've not seen it for five years, Van!" "And are you still the girl kind- ergartner?" 3d "Oh, gracious no! That was Edith. No; I'm in the library. I'm head of the fiction department." "And are you all still living in Racketty-packetty house?" "Oh, that's what you used to call it" "That's what you called it." Yes, wer'e all there." "Gee, Gail," Van said with simple fervor, "it makes a difference to me having you here!" 1584 "But tell me--you haven't told | me--" She turned her face to him the sunset behind her aureoling her * tawny head with gold.

She thought "Aunt Martha said peppers and pampas grasses, rank wild roses, mammoth fuchsia and snowball bushes, to strike flame from the windows of the shabby old house hidden behind him, Gail's heart did not falter, It was not the hour--it was indeed not the place into which to introduce a Yale college man whose father own- ed a chain of flour mills. But hos- -pitality, deep-rooted and instinctive, blotted all lesser considerations. "You're coming in, Van?" "I can't tonight." : "Oh, listen--" "No, honest, IT can't! You know how things are at the Chipps'. Peo- ple coming to dinner--a lot of fuss--" "Soon then." "Soon! But when can I see you?" "At the library--any time." "At the library. And say, listen, we'll go to dinner. We'll go off places --what?" "Oh, grand!" 'Then he was gone. And Gall turn- ed in at the gate, her heart sing- ing. Oh, what a spring night and what a thing it was to be twenty- three and to live in adorable ro- mantic Clippersville! > Edith was. in the kitchen, Sam at the trble eating the large filling sandwich which at nineteen seems a suitable preliminary to a hearty meal, Ariel, her thistledown golden !mon in some disorder, was drifting | listlessly to and fro between dining- ! room and kitchen, setting the table for supper. Phil had net yet come home. Thev would all tell each oth- er presently that he was delayed at the iron works, they would all know that he had stopped at the Cass cottage to see Lily. \ "Gail, Vance Murchison's back! He's got consumption, and he's up at the Chipps'." "Yes, T know. T met him!"" ed, pausing. the round bread Board. the big loaf, the long knife. pressed against her budding breasts. "No," Gail answered with a whiole- some laugh, "he looks perfectly tine" Edith had a small volume open | before her on the sink and as she strinned the hot silky skins from boiled sweet potatoes her eves wen following the printed lines. Sam re- turned to a book that was before { him on the table. "Marius, the Epicurean--I've seen it a million times," Gail said inspect- ing Edith's book, her cheek close to her sister's ear. "Is Is good?" "It's--simply--marvelous," «dith murmured. "Gail. they want me to be Lady Teazle." "What! The lead?" "That's what Miss Potter said. I'll he rotten," Ariel predicted gloom- y. "Oh, Ariel, I think thatll be "| simply grand!" Gall exclaimed en-! thusiastically. "Ede, did you hear that? Ariel's going to be Lady Teazle!" "I thought Aileen Fernald would," Edith observed, interested. "Aileen----" Ariel explained. her red lips twisting to a sneer, "said that maybe her mother was going to take her east." | "Gosh, you ought to read this-- gosh, it's good," Sam muttered from the table!" "Sammy. you oughtn't spoil your, dinner with all that bread and pea- nut butter!" | "And he had a chocolate milk-, shake at Dobbins'," Ariel added ac- "Oh, Sam, how can vou!" But Gail leaned sympatheically over his shabby shoulder none the less. "Is it entertaining?" she asked enjoy- ing his enthusiasm. | There were a great many books in the kitchen as there were in every other room in the house. They were piled up on window sills, and lay on the seats of chairs. There was a dim old library, darkened by shrub-/ | bery, in the house, and the classics] on its shelves were kept free from | | damp and moths by incessant hand- | | Ung. About once a month the Law- rences tried to restore order there, sternly returning the odd volumes of Dickens, Scott, Thackeray, Trol- lope, the Kingsleys, Tennyson, to their places. Shakespeare never rested anywhere long and the clas- sic poets fared badly as they fell into baths, were spattered with kit- chen grease and gravy or were ex- posed to the dews and winds of the garden, Phil came in hefore dinner was quite ready, grinned at his sisters and went upstairs. He came down in a few minutes to sit in the kitchen and wearily, kindly join in the gen- eral conversation, Phil was not so tall as Sam and was thinner than the others. but he had the Law- rence colorine, He was the quietest member of the family, as befitted its head, the man upén whose shoulders heavy responsibility had fallen in boyhood, and who saw life through sober sensible eves. "Ga'l, you look awfully pretty to- night," he said watching her. "In this old rag?' She had as- sumed command of Edith's rather wavering dinner, seasoning and thickening with a masterful hand. Now she began to vour dark meat mixture unon a platter already well filled with a rouch rice ring and diamonds of toast. "What is it?" 'Kidneys." : "Perhaps Van Murchison's return has something to do with Gail's an- vearance--" Edith suggested arch | "Does he look awful?"

"Oh, nothing special!' Ariel an- swered impatiently. She half rose, then went on with her supper, angry tears in her eyes. "It seems to me--on a school night --it isn't as if it were anything spe- cial!" Gail pleaded eagerly. ' Phil regarded his youngest sist- er's drooping buttercup-gold head sympathetically. "Other girls' mothers let them go, Ariel?" "They don't ask them!" Ariel an- swered briefly, biti "Well, then they' your, sort' of girl" Philip , " "They're hotsy," Sam contributed. "They are not hotsys!" Ariel flam- 1 ed. i "Well, whether they are or not, you don't want awfully to go, do you, darling?" the oldest sister pleaded, | Ariel made no answer and the meal proceeded. Philip would go down to night school at eight o'clock | but it was barely seven now and a { general sense of pleasant relaxa- | tion and ease held the group. There | was twilight in the world outside, { and in the dining-room heavy dusk. | Presently one of the Lawrences | would rise with a yawn that was a silent shriek. and light the whistling | gas in the tarnished old elaborate | fixture overhead and they would all blink and start up. But now they continued to eat the cooling rice ! and meat, the cold toast, the stew- | ed apples, in a sort of comfortable | laziness. | Sam was still chuckling over his book, Edith's thoughts were busy with a favorite subject--some sort | of Utopia where women wore robes 'and sandals, and long tables under trees were set with buns and grapes and milk for all comers, by laugh- | ing vine-crowned girls and boys-- Ariel gulped and sniffed; she hat ied them all Gail was thiaking about friendly Van Murchison. And | Phil was twenty-five and deeply in ove, He had left Lily at quarter to six, | only an hour and a half ago left her | phvsically. that is: in spirit he was still with her, still feeling her thin eager bands in his, her thin eager lint on his. | Oh, she was everying they =ald she was--one of the shiftless Wib- | sers married tq one of the disreput- able Cass boys. common un-educat- ed, hopelessly not a lady, hopelessly not an fhtellectual. But she was-- Li'v. Phil's hsloved. She was the gentlest little thing , imaginable. Not like his creamy- ' skinned tawny-headed book-devour- | ing sisters who tore arguments alive ' from newspapers and magazines and wrangled and disputed upon obscure auestions. and were violent partisans of evervthing in general. NolLily was no controversialist. : She was twenty-four now and she had heen demonstrating ever shice her fifteenth birthday her entire | ienorance of the world and her un- fitness to cope with it. Clinnersville 'thought it knew why Lilv Wibser had gone up to San Francisco to take a nosition when she was but fifteen. They might have known. they told one another. that she would turn un again a year or two later. vague as tn- her business career and more reckless than ever about her conduct. They might have known that she would vick one of the worthless Cass boys for her mate and bear him three weak wet whining little babies in succession before he and she part- ed forever. ~ They might have known that those Casses and Wibsers would have a shooting affray and that Lily's par- ticular Cass would disaopear, giving Lily an opportunity instantly to claim State ald and sue for a di- vorce on the ground of desertion. Lily was strangely unafraid of court rooms, officials, legal adjustments, officers of the law. She could al- ways manage to scare up a simple white frock somewhere and a broad- brimmed white hat, and appear in- nocent before the authorities to plead the cause of her three dea: little baby boys. Even then she never would say an unkind word of Joe Cass. Lily never said an unkind word to any- i one; hers was the most loving heart alive. To Phil she was as pure as the Maid of Astolat for whom her mother had named her. She lived in the squalid jumble of { cabins that decorated Thomas Street Hill, where rustling machinery, old bed springs #hd foul bedding aired all day. Nibbling goats, mangy dogs and forlorn little babies with sore bare legs and caked faces, and shrill vociferous women in dangling aprons, peopled the district; the pol- ice department kept a stern eye up- on it. Philip Lawrence stopped at Lily's broken-hinged gate every night, The world knew now that she had got him, as women like Lily do get fine men, and felt sorry for those lovely sister of his who were still so entire- ly in the dark. Without money, without even suf< ficient clothing, with this dim old decaying mansion on his hands. with Gail, Edith and Ariel to settle In life, Philin was nevertheless dream- ing of Lily--Lily and himself estab- lished in one of the new Spanish til- ed houses up near the Plazita, Lily's boys would be--oh, somewhere--She would cook his breakfast and be waiting when he opened the grilled arched gate in the abode wall at night.

Sale of Dutch Butter in Canada Is Sought Montreal, June 27.--Bound on a mission te Ottawa where he will will discuss the possibility of Canada importing butter from Holland during the off months of production in the Dominion, with the plan in mind that Holland may reciprocate by taking more Canadian grain to the exclusion of the Russian product, J. Bosma, delegate of the Frisian Co-opera- tive Dairies stayed here this week. Mr, Bosma stated when inter- viewed that he was sent to Can- ada and the United States merely to scont out market possibilities for Dutch cheese and butter. Cheese, he admits, stands but a small chance of achieving favor in Canada, but he believes that the Dominon might well be able to take considerable quantities of butter during the winter months, Dairying, as he explained is the most important industry in Holland. It has recently been very hard hit by the depression in Germany where it formerly sold a great proportion of its products. It is in order to find substitute markets that Mr. Bosma is going to Ottawa to discuss matters with J. A. Ruddick, dairy com- missioner for the Dominion. He may later try to see the Minister of Trade and Commerce. While Mr. Bosma is not em- powered with any right to dis- cuss trade treaties with Canadian officials, he points out that he represents a large group of co- operative dairies, and that this as well as similar dairying groups would be eager to exercise politi~ cal pressure upon the Nether- lands Government in order to bring about a larger Dutch mar- ket for Canadian wheat, if it were possible to create reciprocal arrangements as butter in Canada.
