So it came that when Sabina opened

not find SAbina any more responsive
than she had been to Elijah. In fact
she was not even as responsive. She
pointed out to Jethro that II she mar

took her out OF pity because she had
lost her home Jethro went away

Next day he hurried up the walk to

I've got the idea. Now, you let me-
sell your turkeys for you, and don't
interfere with me at all, and I'll make
them bring the money you want"
To this after much persuasion, Sa-
bina agreed. She went to. her school
with a lighter heart than she had had
for some time. It was true that Jeth-
70 was going to do this because OF his
friendship for her-but then there
were friendships and friendships. she
told herself.
Acting under Jethro's instructions.
Sabina did not sell a turkey until e
week before Thanksgiving. People
who called and asked for one were
told that she was not yet ready TO

one of the first lessons which the

Arthur once broke a White House
