"What rot.” said Mark. He re- membehed Elise'a legs from the days of short skirts. and her lack of enthusiasm for the water was suddenly explained.

They sat in the late afternoon sunshine and watched Valerie and Lucy chase a ball at the other end if the long pool.

"How beautifully they swim," laid Shirley. "In fact, they're both :ather lovely. Elise told me about your find. Or did she. I wonder? 1 imagined somebody a bit differ- ent. Funny how differently people register. isn't it?" I

"According to the rQistree. I guess." .

"Exactly. I was looking for a girl who-well. sort of knew her way about, so to speak-"

"I don't imagine Lucy would get altogether lost in the dark," said Mark wryly.

"1! you mean she has poise. I agree with you. But poise entirely without gulle. I don: specially want to like her. but I find 1 do. enormously.

"You would." Marl: said. "When I think of generous women, you come first. As a matter of fact, you're a sort of all-round first rater. come to think of it. And darned beautiful! I suppose you hear about it once in a whilc'."'”

"Not from you anyway." sand Shirley. "I don't think you ever told me before. Do you realize that. Mark?" - p

"The oversight will be remedi- ed." he promised.

She put a hand on his shoulder and jumped to her feet. She gathered a white wrap of fleecy ioweling from the back of a chair snd wrapped herself in it.

Valerie and Lucy climbed out of the pool to put out dipping hands.

"Please come back very 300"? said Valerie. "We swim every day. and sometime McTavish is K0135 to forget and lump in too. lt's been such fun having you.”

”rhanks. my sweet." Shirley leaned and. kissed the oval of her cheek. She clasped Lucy's hand for a moment. I'd love to see more of you.” she said. "I think Mark and Valerie have had a great break finding you.”

"things do puzzle me." said Val- erie. "I almost love her. At any rate, I like her a big lot and I don't know why."

"1 know." said Lucy. But whens Valerie asked why. SM 013137 Bald she'd be first to reach the diving board on the other side of the P001-

"You speak such a queer lang- uage, darling," said her mother, 'it's getting harder and harder to follow you." '

"How do .you like this. then? I'm sick and tired of being pitched head first at every man who comes along with money. Why not give nature a break? Besides. it's too soon after Ellen for Mark to be interested in women.” ,

"I've always wondered just how interested he really has in darl- ing Ellen," Mrs. Radding speculat- ed. "Infstuated. yes. But how much more? or course she was rather beautiful -- ”

"She was the most exquisite fe- male thing God ever made. Even you have to hand her that. It's in big handicap. Too mum for me. at any rate."

With Will B. Bird

Writers on Writing. edited by Herschel Brickell: Doubleday Pub- lishers: 33.30. Every once in a while someone asks "Where can I find a lood.book on writing? I've been mulling over a yarn for years and believe I could do sonic- thing with it. if I had the know- how." Those who suffer from such ailment can buy this book and find out the essentials of the writing game in short order. The contributors include such famous writers as Esther Forbes. Mar- jorie Fischer, Margaret Widderner. Eric P. Kelly and Barbara Frost. The chapter headings are "The No- vel." "The Short. Story". "Poetry".

"Non-fiction and Special Mar- kets". "The Practical Side of Writing" and "Wrlters' Confer-

ences." Each form of writing is dealt with in turn. and in some detail. Take. for instance. the his- torical novel. Esther Forbes deals with it. Her book. "0 Genteel Lady", was a Book-of-the-Month choice. and her other novels have received wide acclaim. Her most recent book was another Book-of- the-Month selection. She tells about the growth of the historical novel. from the rather thin vol- umes that contained magnificent Dmae to the rather lurid tomes of the present. She points out that the average beginner places too much stress on the choice of locale and period. The stress. according to her should be placed on the story and no one should follow any pattern set. by prev- ious fiction.

Follow your own inclinations. Remember that a novel is one in- dlvldunits report on life. and it matters little if the report be based on the life of a Mongolian merchant or an apple pcdlar in BFOORIYIL "The least important think about a creative writer's work is his choice of what matters is the degree of truth. of art and of illumination which he can bring to it. The basic problems of life are re- petitive and eternal: they are the indlvldual'a

slaves toiled to build the byte. nilds. as they are in New York night clubs." '
