At tint Georgia thought that
Eddie was lookinf for her but he
hurried straight down down and
down, atumbllnf and sliding and
the next moment she beard Dill's
(low voice.
"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."

"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! FVr the vl
