._._____________.,,_ ,_, _ q A great many delightful things occur in holiday time, new inter- ests and enjoyments to be remem-| bered and stored away in the Iathomless depths in the treasure |house of memory, laid carefully, Ithere. to become lavender scented. ‘through the years. So I found‘ .every waking minute of vacation ,daya at Alder-lea full of new de- tiights ‘till each one was “pressed ‘down and running over"; and all for mv pleasure. There were sun-, lit. days when James came in; sweat-stained from the haying to, say apologetically: "Ellen, if you could come to do that after-raking it would be a considerable help. ,That cloud over there above the woods is heading for the west. ,1 wouldn't trust thunder out cf this heat." And willingly I left the "James" of my story to fol- ;low the flesh and blood one on a‘ ‘pleasant vagrant trail to the open spaces. And the_ cloud was only a flcecy Wllltq lavyzpuff-of-ti-oiic lwithout svill or purpose floating taimlessly on a turquoise sky. But ‘a robin on a. fence-rail trillcd t"Could you presume to write at ;better tale than this?" The sheen ,of the mill-stream was through the, ltrees and the beauty of hay-time was all about me. And no rain‘ came, until every last bit of the _hay here and at Rob's was safely .gathered to stack and loft and mow. On Saturday evening it was completed and Rob and Jamie lwent in the road home-ward tivith horses and hay-wagon. I had .drivcn "the young mare" in the vlift for the last load and it was . James who unhitched hcr from the ‘swing and I saw him tenderly; smooth her mane before she set off briskly to follow the others home. Ours were let to WillEl‘. I saw them canter eagerly to drink at the stream. And their. harness was hung in the stable and the hay-wagons wheeled to their ac- customed laces. Weary ivorkers; smiled, an went easily to the. chores. After a week of work thatl had been tiresome yet good, the prospect of a day of rest straight-l cried weary shoulders. I stood in< the yard in the afterglow. when the west was still alight with the shades of the dying day. James.‘ was beside me. We watched at car leave a cloud of dust behind it as it passed on this Alderlea road of ours. The particles hung i together like a veil above the fields land road, caught and held tiaere |for a time in the coolness of the evening. James’ gaze shifted from there to the potato patch below the lane, and the turnips beside. begging now for the dcws of heaven. “Ellen? he said, turning to me, with a ghost of a smile, “a dajfs rain now wouldn't do a mite of harm!”

1 I ' a l. The Nell mare was excused from all work at the haying. For her, this year, there were no lengthy clays at the raking. No sweat- stalned coat nor mark of harness. The satin of her chestnut coat. remained dappled and pretty. Nell has been favored among females- being now the mother of a son. He came to Aldcrlea James says tbut things happening as they did, outside his usually infallible rec- koning of such matters, leave room for doubt) about dawning on Aug- ust; 3. That was the windless lovely morning when the sky above the barns was rose and amber tinted. Early that, morning when I was yet in my deepest slumber, James nudged me to say: "Ellen, have you forgotten? The fat cattle are to go today," and at once he fairly sprang from the old bed to the floor. Judy, in the look-out room, where the sound of the over- florw at the waste gates on the dam below, now is an enchanting lullaby, took the tumult of his risinfil for her cue and presently all derlea was astir. The cows were herded to the milking and with each milker to her or his favorite, the work was soon neatly done. It was while the cream- separator was humming and the women-folk had the Calf-pails set in orderly rows to receive their ra- tion, that Jock came from the -rise leading to the pasture at the rear of the buildings. He had gone there to fetch the horses for their morning grain, in preparation for the work at the having. “r1011 her foal", he said to me, then the only one in sight "It's up on its feet; and the other horses might hurt it." I know now that Jock must have been rather excited for he added quietly but suggcstivc-ly "you couldn't hurry your step a little?" I jumped to rellevc James at the separating- Jeanie and James tore away to the field to greet and protect the new-comer, but not. before I had answered Jock with equal sarcasm and in a voice that carried to its mark: "We've had foals before lhis at Alderlca". I sometimes vary similar infrequ- ent statements to "before ou were born.” Age will have its nings! However it's as Pat would say "a very foine foal." I found that out when the last bit, of cream had dribbled from the separator to the pail and I hoisted this cash crop to a nail out of reach of the cats and Para and I went w 10in the procession bringing the mother t and son from the pasture. Perhaps. |now that I think of it, I walked too sedately, unbefitting so joyous an occasion. Jack's words still rankled. But_ mothcred by the Nell mare-and there never was n kinder dam-and although perhaps of only commonplace origin as re- gards any or all of his forbears, this white-starred horse, that may one day be a bay or a red or a brown, come to us "out of the everywhere" has ageady won his

J. C. H. AGE IS CHASM ANSWER: Your experience is the inevitable

one about its being better for a girl to be an old man's darling than a young man's slave. It is the other way about, for the old are almost invariably tyrannical. And especially do they think that 'h<-’.\’ have 111i‘ right to dominate the young. They are so sure that their way is the

right way, that they know best about everything and that it is their: d

privilege to enforce their views and habits on their families.

So the young girl who marries an old man isn't pelted and strolled. She has to sit at home and nurse his rheumatism, while he tries to make her as old and stuffy as he is. It is a sad life and foolish is tho girl who lets herself in for it. _

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: My mother is trying to force me to marry a man whom I do not love because he belongs to a wealthy family‘ Since I have a good job and am self-supporting, do you not think that I am free to leave home? I am afraid if I do not go that my nmthri will nag me into marrying this man to whom I could never be a good wife because I actually dislike him. What should I do?

LEANORE. I

ANSWER: Obedience to ones parents doesn't include marrying‘ the man that Mama picks out for a husband because he has some: money. It takes love. congeniality and the joy and comfort of being] together to make any marriage a success and these are things that came by nature and are not bought over the counter. t

Anyway, a husband is a matter of personal taste and every girl has the right to pick out her own. Because Mother fancies a man is. no sign that you would care for him. for you are the one who is going‘ to have to live with him—not Mother. ;

I have known many cases where mothers forced their daughters to marry rich young men, even when they were in love with poor boysf Then the rich young men, who had never done a. hand's turn of workg in their lives. lost their money and the poor girls had nothing left-- neither love nor money. t

DEAR. MISS DIX: What do you think of a husband who will not! let his uiie drive their car, but who thinks that it is perfectly all right ~ for a young woman to pick him up and take him to and from work, on the sly, in her car?

BLUE EYES. your husband is trying to economize ori gas with the girl instead of having a love affair.

ANSWER: Perhaps and is bumming a ride with her. I right It was after the cattle were l tied on the truck and someone ask- ed: “Ellen, what were you going to do with that stake in your hand?” I looked down to find that I had hurriedly broken a. small switch from a wild cherry when I caught a fat; steer "making eyes at me."
