"Hello, sir?" Oh, hullo, Oini" Eddie's noice was slow, too, In spite of the fran tic hurrying of his feet "I got a bit tired of my own company. Say It'll be a long time before Miss Jenny Is back wont It?" "Only Just gone," remarked Gill, after long thought. Oeorgi leaned over the bannis ters and peered down. At the bot tom of the weU, in the hall of the building. Eddie was lighting a cigarette while Gill stood silently by. As though the first few whiffs steadied him, he peresently turned and ascended the, stirs again. "There's a chair for you in the office," Gill called after him. In a burst of garrulity; but Eddie plod ded on and up. Exactly, thought Georgle, as she herself had plodded, every step an effortl "We're both frightened, frightened of every thingand, oh, it's such a heart breaking pity when we were going to be so happy I" she said aloud. But she had no more time for sor row. She went firmly back to the apartment. She sang persistently and cheer fully as she burst Into her bed room and threw her hat on the bed. She had left all doors open behind her and she could hear Eddie's hesltat- TIIEV ALL DEI lilt By Mary Graham Bonner 'What's our favorite color, Peg gy?" old Jonah asked. "Oh, I don't know exactly," Peg gy answered. "It might bo an idee to paint it all different colors," old Jonah sug gested. "Least-a-ways if we did that it wouldn't be like any other house." "That's so." agreed Peggy, "but maybe a house of too many colors wouldn't be so pretty." "Blue's my favorite color," John spoke up. "I like blue, too," Peggy said "And I love yellow." "Why not have Just blue and yellow?" John suggested. That would only mean we'd have to use two colors, and if we're going to help with the painting we'd better not try too many. We'd make it all smudgy if we did. What about a blue house with yellow shutters, or a yellow house with blue shut ters?" "Oh, I think a yellow house with blue shutters would be sweet," cried Peggy. "And the front and back doors could be blue, too," said old Jonah. They all decided that there would be two windows In the front and a window either 'side of the house, and then they thought they ought to give the house a name. "We might call it the Play House," Peggy said. "But I'm going to work In it, too," John objected. "Let's Just call it 'Our Little House'," Peggy said, and old Jo nah and John thought that name would do very well. Old Jonah said that he would give the house a chimney. "Maybe we can have a stove put In for the cold weather," he ex plained. "Least-a-ways it's a good Idee." I ACROSS X, PurtKpa fe. Cum uxrdlr 1 Hook of tilt Iliblt 14.

"That you, dear boy? come and welcome me homer Olrll" He came crashing across the room, a big. eager man, and swept htr up and into his arms. She shut her em as they kiased and all was forgotten save the ecstasy of this homeoomlng. "Oh. girl, my girl! Jenny said you wouldn't be here till the end of the weekl" She freed herself, breathless, -a diant. "I didn't think I should be, out at the last moment the Old Man called the deal off and we came back. He has kept me slaving all day or I'd have been bare before. Xd, what no you uunx oi an inur "All what?" "Well, the apartment darling, and all the new furniture. The light In Eddie's eyes dimmed "Isn't It perfectl" she urged. "1 wanted It to be perfect for us to come back to and It was such a shame that you had to see it when I wasn't even there to lead you home and that we couldn t have the triumphal arches anl all the Illum inated addresses as I'd planned! Everything went wrong, didn't It? but it's all right now. It Is perfect and we are In It together." He nodded and sat down on the satin covered stool before the long mirror. She could not aee whether In the mirror he was watching her or himself and she went on chat tering to hid her doubts. "It was better that I shouldn't see you just for those few minutes that I had before I went away. I It would have upset us both and you aren't feeling any too lively, anyway, and of course I have to keep my head clear for my Job. Be sides, I knew it was only for a day or two. You you don't mind?" He was staring down at his hands, dangling between his knees. Georgle bit her lip, perplexed and embarrassed. She had been apolo gising to him and she had no more meant to do that than she had meant to pick a quarrel with Jenny or sit moping on the stairs I What In the world was happening to'her? "I'm tired out," she muttered and at that he Jumped to his feet. "No wonder! Only old Matching would work a woman as though she were a machine! You need a holi day Just as badly as I do. Girl- sweetheart lets come away now, at once, and have the rest of the summer somewhere together!" She shook her head, sighing and smiling, not as yet taking him seri ously. If only I could I If only I hadnt had my fortnight's holiday! But there's no earthly hope of my wheedling another out of the Old Man his temper these last days has really been worth preserving as a museum piece, too utterly aw ful lor words. As things are, I ve got to go gingerly with him." As things are? What docs that mean, as things are'?" "Well, dear boy" She broke off. her perplexity growing. Then, as she saw that he was scowling, her uncertaln mood changed also. "Weil, dear boy, someone has got to keep the pot boiling and I seem to recol lect that we agreed It should be me?" "Then we can change our minds," snapped Eddie. "My wife doesn't pay for a lot of new furniture at the expense of her health and don't you reckon otherwise! You'll choose between me and your Job, my girl, and you'll choose now." Georgle was too utterly dlmay ed to do anything but stare. This, she considered, was the last straw to have to fight for her freedom to work, against the prejudices of a man who would, quite likely, be able to work no more!
