I BORN OP THE STORM
I ir!hnntr 141
As the first days of Priscllla's
married life slipped ay, sne inea
f valiantly to make a go of things
! with the Kents and with her hus-
band. She pretended to be unaware
i of her mother-in-law's rudeness,
1 and kept up a running play of
! pleasantries with Mr. Kent, who
! seemed to enjoy her vivacity as
! much as his wife disliked it. Since
I Kenneth's work as a truck-driver
1 kept him away sometimes lor a mil
t week at a lime, rnscina ttejjv i.e..
self busv improving her mind.
in K.ennems aoseuce sue mw
something of Gertude and she wrote
long letters to her former high
school mends wno naa gone else
where to work. After some hesita
tion and several torn-up pages, she
achieved a prim little note announc
ing her marriage and sent it off to
jjennis in new uneans.
Weekdavs were busv. for Pris
cilia spent those in business school,
and also working part-time for an
insurance man. One Saturday, when
Priscilla thought she could not stand
the drabness of her bedroom any
longer, she went downtown and se
lected rues and draperies. She ar
ranged to pay for them on the
installment plan.
"I'll get a job as soon as I grad
uate," she thought. "A real Job,
fulltime, and then I can pay oil
the last half of it all at once."
Priscilla arranged to have the
furniture and other things deliver
ed on a day when it suited Viola
to be at the Kent home to supervise
the operation, and when Priscilla
came home they worked together
on the room.
"I doubt if Kenneth will recog
nize his room, Pris," said Viola.
"He's never had anything like this
before."
"I do hope he likes it, Vi."
They said good-bye to Mrs. Kent
and. with Dora and her school-
books, they drove off in Viola's
little car.
A ten-minute ride took them into
a neat suburb with rows of pretty
detached cottages, shaded by fine
old trees. It was a cozy place, its
snugness emphasized by the white
picket fence. A quaint flagstone
walk with moss-grown seams led
from the road to the steps and then
turning off around the side of the
house, continued back to tiic ga
rage. "If I only had a place like this I"
exclaimed Priscilla. "You must love
it here, Viola. It's so bright and
cheeriul and everythlngs at your
finger tips."
Her inspection was interrupted
by a tug at her skirt.
"Come play piano for me," lisped
Laddie.
"Yes," broke in Viola, "I prom
ised him thnt you would play. He's
very fond of music."
Priscilla was delighted with the
beautiful little spinet piano in the
living room. She played and sang
several nursery songs.
More," he cried, when she rose
from her seat,
"That was really fine," respond
ed his mother, "but, if you want
any dinner tonight, we must go to
work in the kitchen right now,
After dinner Priscilla helped
ixra witn ner lessons and Viola
played with Laddie while Daniel
read his paper, Priscilla was more
( pieasea man ever with violas
house-wlfery and conjured up a
' similar menage for herself In the
I not too distant future,
p Kenneth was home in the eve
i nings for the next few weeks and
J tht time passed rather pleasantly
J for Priscilla. Even the friction
J with Mrs. Kent seemed to have
uosiaea.
Her worst contention resulted
from her efforts to improve Ken
neth's English. If she took Ken
neth to the bedroom to study, Mrs.
Kent objected on the grounds that
she was never allowed to speak
to her own son. Besides, Kenneth
himself soon became quite Impatient
with the work.
"Ya don't give the boy a chance
V enjoy hlsself," grumbled Mrs.
Kent. "Why ya always pester him
so?"
"Don't you want him ever to
amount t oanything?" Priscilla bit
her tongue. The question the
accusation had slipped out be
fore she realized it.
The very next day the rift opened
up again when Priscilla found a
letter addressed to her and post
marked nearly a week before, half
hidden in a bowl on the buffet. It
happened to be a note of congratu
lations from Dennis.
Not only did the older woman
resent being asked about the let
ter, but she gave Priscilla a good
piece of her mind about getting
mall from another man.
Priscilla was not yet back from
school when Kenneth came home.
When Priscilla opened the door
she found the whole family, In
awaiting her.
"Why, Kenneth," she said.
she kissed him lightly, "this is a
pleasant surprise."
"Ain't you got' nothin' else to
tell me?" demanded Kenneth ab
ruptly.
Priscilla looked around at her
. . tribunal. In Mrs. Kent's fishy
eyes there shone a gleam of satis
faction, which seemed reflected in
Dora's countenace. li was some
what of a shock to find that she
had nicurred Dora's enmity, too,
after all the effort she had made
to win her good vlll.
"Kenneth," she said, with more
composure than she felt. "I be-
lieve I know what you mean. Would
not it be better to discuss this
upstairs, in private?"
"I think we got a right to know
what our son's wife is doin'. writ
ln' to another man, don't you?"
asked Mrs. Kent maliciously.
"All right." exclaimed Priscilla
angrily, as she rase from Ken
netns lap. Ill let you read tne
letter." As he read, his face be
came ambarrassed.
The letter was very short. "De
lighted to hear the wonderful news
oi your marriage, Dennis had writ
ten. "I hope you ll be very nap-
ov."
"All right, all right," growled
Kenneth, evidently realizing that
his mother had made him play
the fool, "you needn't get so sore
about it." As Kenneth glared at
his mtoher, Priscilla happened to
glance at Pop Kent. To her sur
prise Pop grinned at ner and slow
ly winked his eye. Prom that, mo
ment on she knew that, even though
Pop was the most uncouth man she
had ever known, he had his sterling
qualities. He knew how to be a
friend and Priscilla was sure she
could count on him.
Two months after her elope
ment, Priscilla finished her busi
ness course. Applying for her first
"real" Job loomed. Priscilla was
scared when she started out one
morning, directing her brown-and-
white pumjis toward the business
district. But she needn't have been
frightened. Before eleven o'clock
she was in a telephone booth calling
Gertrude.
"Yours of the first instant re
cveived," she said before Gertrude
had time to speak, "only that isn't
good form any more."
"OI course," said uertude. "By
the way, what are we talking
about?
"My new job I" cried Priscilla.
"At the Finance Company. I'm a
business woman."
Gertrude chuckled. "You cer
tainly are, kid," she assure Pris
cilia.
Priscllla's elation lasted only a
short time. It wasnt a week be
fore she had called Gertrude again,
this time in a somewhat less happy
mood.
