Legends ooizornv DIX says- Of We enjoyed en outing this after- noon, which did not carry us away from the farm. but instead only as far as the spring in the field across “the creek." This has been doubtless e. last jaunt there, until winds that carry a promise of dandelion: and. buttercups and apple blossoms in their blowing, shall have loosed every last bind- ing fetter of Winter's forging and the new season containing the seed- tlme shall, have come. Then on a first balmy day, we shall steal away to sup again of the refresh- ing clean-flowing water. If she had not been at her napping. we should likely have taken grand-daughter with us, so that she might learn early to appreciate these familiar haunts about the farm, so much loved by the others of the family: the springs and streams, the frag- rant woody glades, the woodland I ches and paths along favorite sheltered meadows. There uniiri the serenity of quiet country places sacred against the noisy intrusion of the outside bustling world, ex- cept perhaps for the sound of a dis- tant and lonely whistle of a puss- ing train, one may find thc essence of peace and content.

The day bloke clear and calm. with warm sunshine flooding the hills and plalns—-a beautiful spring morning. By twelve o'clock noon darkness began to descend over the island and stretch itself across the North- umberlaind Strait. Everywhere people laid aside their work to cast anxious glances at the heavens, which, by this time. began to take on ii strange appear- ance. Overhead the sun could be seen but dimly. lt looked for all the world like a blood-colored disk. A fe\v flcccy clouds sailed the heavens. It was growing darker. By one o'clock visibility was so bud that one could scarcely see n dozen yards. The noonday meal had to be caien under candlelight. The darkness increased. Fowls in the barnyard went to roost, and thc crowing of roosters could be hoard in ihc distance.

All llllliifi‘ appeiirctl in DEAR DOROTHY DIX: All my life I have lived in a home that has been a battleground. My mother and father are basically two fine people who are really fond of each other. but they are in a perpetual fight about everything and nothing. They have made many sacrifices to give us children the advantages of education and association, but they have nagged us continually and kept us virtual prisoners. I am a woman in my early twenties now and I feel that I have n right to, at least, some freedom. Do you think I would be justified in leaving home and striking out for myself. A BEWILDERED DAUGHTER serve a r707‘ 5weak/asf 0/ amt/m 04m arr/er gir/ ANSWER: l certainly do. You owe it to yourself to keep your nerves from being shattered and your disposition soured. as would be bound to happen if you continued to live in a household where there is con- ~ stant bickering. “Peace! Peace! Ain't peace wonderful?" said Father Divine. and he never uttered a truer word. 1t is the one indispensable thing to happiness. There is a lot of maudlin sentiment about the breaking up of fam- ilies, but nine times out of ten it is their salvation. For, as one of our great philosophers once said. "The scattering of children is the only thing that keeps the Joncses from being smothered by the Joneses and the Smiths from being Smithed to death." There is no other form of martyrdom that is so agonizing as hav- ing to live with people who rub you raw every minute of the day. Moth- ers who nag. Fathers who are tyrants. Grandmother who whines. Grandfather who always interferes with everything that isn't his busi- ness. Aunt Sally who is a perpetual talker. Life wiili any one of them is not worth living. yet how fcw of us have thc courage to get up and leave our place of torment. Wu are victims of the fallacy, that we have to stand the disagreeable members of our families, lnstcad oi chucking them out of the door.
