RADIO PROGRAM .By on a light, then called a taxi before she began to dress. The taxi was wait ing when she came down ten minuter later. At St. Martin's the switchboard girl said: "Third floor, sitting-room at the end of the corridor . . ." and she ran for the elevator. Margery was a small frozen figure huddled into a lumpy couch. She whimpered: "Carol 1" and began o cry. Carol sat down and took her in her arms. "Hold it! Don't do that, darling.' She sat still, holding Margery tight ly. "Have they started yet?" "A few minutes apo." The gales were down, and Margery found mo mentary relief In words. "He's com plained of earache for two days, and I took him to Dr. Howard yesterday. He said to watch it carefully and let him know at once if the pain got worse. He waked up about half-past three, screaming, and when I called Dr. Howard he came right out, and we brought him here." Her voice faded. 'Then you must have gotten hold of it promptly, and that's the main thing." She wondered if that was true. Sht knew nothing of the ways of mas toids, but the words had a confident, comforting sound. "Have you had anything to eat?' 145 The Ooapel Blnscr, NBC.

"Oh no. I it would make me sick." "Not coffee. I'm going and see if I can't rustle some." She found a young nurse who said, "Yes. indeed; she would see that they had coffee right away." Minutes stumbled past. Coffee came, and Inside and outside the hospital the world stretched and yawned and made noisy preparations for another day. Sunlight stole be tween two walls and poured Its pale gold on the floor at their feet. At in tervals Margery asked from the lone liness of her anguish: "What time is it?" and her voice was small and unmodulated, like ; child's. "Twenty-five minutes of eight." "He said it would take about two hours, probably." She turned to stare at the doorway. "Harry ought to be here before long. I wish I had my knitting; I was making him a sweater to wear to kindergarten." Harry came a few minutes later, looking gray and drawn, walking un necessarily on tiptoe. He went to the couch and put his arms around Mai gery, and Carol got up and stood at the window with htr back to them, "Shall I clear out now?" she ask'jd without turning. "Please don't," Harry said. "Un less you think you really ought to. It he stands it all right I'll have to keep two appointments this morn ing." Business as usual. Because, Caroi knew, he would need his commissions more than ever, to cope with all thia. Well, having to carry on would per haps be better than this. A sound in the doorway brougtit them to their feet, white-faced and silent and questioning. Dr. Howard stood there, dragging a white cap from hia head. "So far so good," he said, and his steady voice sounded loud and clash ing in the hushed room. "He went through tt better than we could have hoped for. We got it Just in time." Margery whimpered with rcliel and Harry's arm tightned about her shoulders. "How soon will we know thing?" he asked hoarsely. "I can't exactly tell. He won't bo out of the ether for some time may be an hour." He eyed them keenly "Why don't you go home and get a hot bath and some breakfast?" They stirrexl and sighed. Harry said : "I guess we will do that. Thank j ou. Doctor." In the car Margery said: "Caroi. i can't you come on home and have breiiklast with us?" She shook her head. "No, 1 11 get a bath and put my clothes on properly, and have breakfast downstairs in the toa-room. Would you like for me to sii with you while Harry is away?" "Oh. if you would Margery whis pered. "Mother will get here late thu afternoon, but I'd be so glnd to have you if the oflice can spare you." m sure It can." Shi was Immeasurably touched bv the fact that Margery had turned to her. At nine Mie called Blake and told him, as stenriily as possible, wtm had happened. "I hope it s all right?'' she concluded.
