"Sarah could tell you I'm not much good In a kitchen. But I'm learning. What about the family?" "After I bought the place I realized It would be a white ele phant on my hands.

Its balustrades, dark ornate furniture supplemented by big wing chairs covered with bright cretonne. The curtains were cream with rich draperies of blue bra cade. A stair with a wrought Iron balustrade wound upward at one side of the room. A bright fire glowed in the fireplace. "Oh, what a darling place!" Dreamed Ann. "The bedrooms and bath are up stairs," Peter said. "Let's have a look at the kitchen." The kitchen floor was covered with linoleum In large gray and black blocks, copying an old flagg ed stone flooring. The room had rough plaster walls - and dainty ruffled swiss curtains at the win dows. Upstairs the survey led from Ann's bedroom to Peter's The fur niture In her room was painted cream and decorated In roses. Soft silk shades covered the lights. There were gray pillows on the window seat, a gay chintz-covered chair under the reading lamp.

There were Sam and his -wife, a younger woman and her husband, a little girl about three, and a boy. Ann judged that the boy. who had bright dark eyes, was around 10. "Howdy. Mr. Kendall." Sam said. "We tried to fix everything right, sir." "Everything's fine." Peter said. "The house looks nice. Mrs. Ken dall likes the flowers." "We have a garden." Sam's wife told Ann. "A little patch at the back. We're going to have lots of vegetables. (To Be Continued) The largest bird Is the ostrich, which stands nearly eight feet tall and weighs about 800 pounds.
