I ’ m goin’ to ask him to take Einstein in the next room, and then I want all of you to get in single file and come in one at a tim e and scratch the hound's belly."

And all in all. it was easily the most successful social in a long while. Next day, when Lem was Inter viewed by the editor of our paper, he didn’t brag much about his hound. “ To tell the truth,” he said, “ the sheriff and me. we THETHR EESOME “ Oh, Auntie, why didn't you te ll me he was going to be here?

He dropped in unexpectedly yesterday and an nounced he was here for two weeks. He's a dear boy. You'll like him. The next day Janice accompanied Phil up to the north pasture and watched him prune apple trees. “ I thought this was your vacation,” she said after awhile. “ I t is,” he told her. “ I like work ing on my vacations—out doors.” She wondered about Phil. He pointed away over the fields. "Some day I ’d like to see a ll those fields set out to apple trees.” Two days ago she wouldn't have believed him. She was city born and city bred.

Answer: No more so than any other natural Instinct—but your way of trying to gratify it may be. Everyone instinctively wants ad m iration and approval, and ac cordingly the desire to show off is universal even though in many people it has been so sternly re pressed that they are not con scious of it. But to give way to the desire is neurotic when you don’t consider whether what you have to display — whether it is beauty, wit, or talent—w ill be pleasing to |your audience. Mature people show off only when they have something to show. wasn’t too sure Einstein could spot the crim inal, so we helped out a mite. I rubbed a little soot from the stove on the hound’s underside, and every time anyone came out of the room the sheriff looked at his hands.

From the study of a group of seventy stammering children under five years of age, he concluded that their typical background was a home in which they had been sheltered and ln- ■ i » y i dulged but also had been expected to be models of behuvlor. Stain mering is basically the result of u conflict {between what we wish to say una what we think we’ re expected to say, so that the more afraid a child is to express him self spontaneously, the more likely he w ill be to stutter. Does a psychoanalyst advice? give Answer: Not if he adheres to the strict psychoanalytic tech nique. For the object of this tech nique is not to remodel you ac cording to somebody else's pattern but to help you find out what you are and make up your own mind what you want to do about it. A person who told you that you should—or should not—get a d i vorce. for example, would be un true to the psychoanalytic meth od. By the time that you have rec ognized the unconscious reasons why you've been unhappy in your marriage you'll know what you want and ask advice from no one.

He stood just inside the picket fence—six feet of ta ll leaness. F air hair. Blue eyes. Bespeaking the easy arrogance of youth. He wore a blue cotton shirt and blue denim jeans. “ You’re not Janice Burdon?” he aaid. And then at her expression: “ Heavens, you are! Why couldn’t Aunt Bertha have warned m e?" “ Is Aunt Bertha your aunt, too?’ ’ “ M y real aunt. You only call her auntie because she’ s a close friend of your mother.

Janice rescued her suitcase from the rumble seat. “ This is like one of those things you read about,” he grinned, tak ing it from her. He studied her w ith honest approval. “ And I thought my vacation was going to be one of those dull, uninteresting things.” Minutes later Janice faced her Aunt Bertha in the bed chamber over the front parlor.

Needless to say, she wore the brooch to the smoked- ham supper and square dance, and needless to recount, it got more attention than a team-of-four with their tails trim m ed. Everything went smooth as mo lasses al the social until right in the middle of a "su ing your part ner" when Mrs. Purdy let out a screech and fainted dead away. And when they brought her around, she began hollering for someone to lock the doors be cause her brooch had been stolen from right off her chest. MIRROR N RADIO hot days in the sun, long lonely evenings. Even the thought of a farm had made her shudder. She wondered about Phil. He claimed to be a law firm member on vacation. It occurred to her that for a lawyer he was m ighty skillful handling pruning clippers. And his knowledge of farm ing was pro found. SECOND DAY of their T HE vacation they knocked off early and went for a swim. The th ird day they played ten nis. The fourth Aunt Bertha parked them a lunch and they drove to Mount Carter, climbed to its summit and watched a glorious sunset while nibbling delicious sandwiches. On the second Saturday following her a rriv a l she was w ith Phil. They had climbed Mount Carter again, had sat for long, silent moments watching the afterglow of a blood- red sunset. Unexpectedly Phil said: "W ell it’s gone. And our vacation has gone. Tonight winds up the two weeks.” “ There's always an end to nice things,” she told him evasively. “ There doesn't have to be. Ever. Listen,” he went on eagerly. “ I gave you the wrong impression about myself. I'm not a successful lawyer. I never should have tried to be a lawyer. Thank heavens I realized the mistake before it was too late.” You mean you're not leaving? You're staying here?” He nodded. “ I'm going to try and raise apples. Auntie and I are going to be partners. This fa ll I ’ll sell what we have and next spring set out new trees. He picked up her hand. “ Honey, let’ s make it a threesome. I know i t ’s a lot to ask,” he added w istfully. “ A city g irl like you. I t ’ll be dull. But eventually—” " I could chip in my roadster,” Janice cried excitedly. " I t ’s all I have, but it ought to bring $500. How many apple trees can you buy with $500, darling?” “ Enough." said Phil, reading her eyes, "to keep from being lone some—I guess.” LAST SSWORD PUZZLE ACROSS 52. Observed DOWN 1.
