Then what shall we wish? That a brisk Genie might' appear with a band of helpers to have the barn-rafters in place. the roof boarded and all shingled in no time- and a. huge forkful of hay poised for a moment before a high door, to swing in presently. and to the accompaniment of smiles on every side. drop to the mow below? No indeed. this would not be a first wish! For think of all the joys of the days of building we should thereby miss! The daily progress of the work under Mr. D's supervision and skill - the "brick upon brick" of it. we like to watch as it matures according to plan: the yarning at mealtimes: the oft- en amusing replies to our greet- ing of morning: "And how are things in . . .7'” Should we rather wish. now that the season is upon us, that in some giant magic endeavour the Genie would harvest our hay? It will be. we know, for us a long chore before every last wisp of it is tucked safely into our barns. Yet here too. we should lose every delight of the undertaking. Noth- ing but the scent of it should we have had to enjoy . . . No sight of James at the mowing. nor his in- tent regarding of earth and sky. We should miss even that bitter- sweet period of regret we exper- ience when we see the mowers lay low the first green swaths. What scenes come to mind at a sight of James at the mowing! The March predictions and April's. with odd tokens of winter still lin- gering: "Don't seem to me. Ellen. therels much promise of may on the fields!" Then as day by day familar duties of the season re- turn to us. a first sign of soft green comes to the fields. which spreads. to the scent of the stirrings of- Spring. The new of the season! What a long .time before the haying! Thus and so we shall do in the wide in-I terval. But in a pleasant round the days slip until one mid-morning with some surprise one catches sight of waves of shadow over the haylonds. the sun touching with its gold the satiny ripples. Andl James comments presently: "Guess we'll have to get more help on at the weeding - the next thing we know the haying will be here!" Then for us. a surety perhaps for the extra food we shall need to prepare - for the haying is a hun- gry pastime! a host of daisies, gol- den-hearted. white-petalled sur- prises us upon the hillsides. Too soon. in the wake of their ap- pearance remindful signs of the mowing are borne to us . . . a night of the machines being moved to first scenes of it - or as today James and Jamie edging the hay- knives. should we wish all these items we have known and been a part of for long years away from us? Give them over at a sigh to the magic of a Genie? Perish the thought! Then what shall we wish? 'We should echo James' peren- nial wish: ”For health and strength'! remembering that with these. though there be no pot. of gold at the foot of our rainbows. we are rich indeed: we should wish for peace world-over. so that the young lives of. soldiering- lads might be spared to loved ones and homes: we should wish chil- dren to enjoy as we did the joys of childhood in a happy world where wars and battles were tales almost lost in the past. ' And we would wish that at least for this night, calm, mystic in its moonlight. beautiful. there may be no suffering, no sorrow abroad but for all the restful balm of sleep with pleasant excursions down some lovely lane of dreams!

Adolescents need a social life: they need competitive sports, one they need association with members of the opposite sex. DEAR Miss Dix: I am very much in love with a. married man. and am a little mixed up. Heis younger than his wife. and very good looking. They don't get along so he feels justified in going out with me. He wants to divorce his wife and marry me, but I'm skeptical about going through with it. He has no children. BEWILDERED ANSWER: And well you might be skeptical. Your friend seems to need small justification to break one of the Ten Commandments. If he is so morally weak now. you won't accomplish the miracle of build- ing his character. DEAR MISS DIX: I am 15 years old and have been melt-ing to a boy of H for the past year.
