long before the first white man set foot on the continent eff tradition is to be beIieyed). and We have followed much the same custom to this day or course pumpkins are raised in other environ. ment than in corn field but no other surround ings seem appropriate for the heralds of the fall festivals
 Every true friend of the pumpkin Is forced to admit that the name 1t bears is pleban one for so royal fruit. It's name has not only proven a disadvantage in some respects, but has resulted In the pumpkin being confused with certain other products of the farm As every person who goes in quest of pumpkin for Halloween plots can well attest. there is only form of pumpkin that is worthy the name and occasion-that shapely orb of joy round a ball and with It's glossy surface tinted a more vivid orange than who confuse the only and original simon-pure pumpkin with its numerous cousins. none of which have its traditions claims to distinction Just because the pumpkin belongs to the same family as the summer and croOkneck squasaes and the common. inedible gourds Is no reason why anybody should confuse them as one and the same thing. Why. even the squashes that approach most nearly to the pumpkin in color lack it's symmetry of form

 But she was not consulte;d because James came calling the very next af- ternoon in his touring car. And he en tered with difidence in his manner and worship in his big. black eyes. Geneyieye saw the difldence and reso- lutely declined 10 see the worship.
 James said. Do come out for drive and find out how tho spring feels. I am sure you are pale for the need of fresh air" And GeneYleve said, q am always pale. but it is very kind of you, and ] shall be charmed"

 James came around the next after noon, and then the next. The third time GeneYieye vas not at home. She was. in fact. holding a serious conyer- sation with herself. She was saving that James was much too young for her. Of course. anybody knows what that leads to. She could make him happier than any mere girl-she knew men, and an unhappy marriage would cause her to appreciate q happy mar Tiage

It Is all very we'll to talk about the advantages Of the modern quiet and decorous Halloween In contrast to the rather more bosterous ones that were formerly the rule-and yet in In some localites-but whatever the form of celebration it would assuredly lose all it's zest for juvenile America without the grinning jacko' o'lanterns made possible by ye plump pumpkins Moreover, with out the vvid-hued orbs the Halloween hostess would be at loss for decorative effects at dinner and party And finally. without the wealth of the pumpkins mellow interior we should one and all be deprived of that supreme delcacy-the pump kin pie-which Is our boanden right on Halloween even if some grabbed old doctor does deny it to Us all the rest of the year.
 No one. probably, has the imagination to pre- diet how could get along without the pumpkin at this prankish time because not within the memory of the oldest inhabitant have We been without these harbingers of the waning year We imagine Christmas without tree illuminated by the tiny electric lamps conceive St Val ent!nes day without those convenient and nomica post card valentines. because 1t was not many years ago that knew not these holi day adiuncts But Halloween without pumpkins!

Thes Genevieve Who Took a Bov
 to Raise

Geneyieve was a charming woman. She was, in fact, d charming widow, and that is very important indeed.
 James was as nice young man as ever executed a clean shave with safety razor or fretted about the way his trousers were pressed. Though, for the matter of that, James was no ladies man either. and not more in love with himself than a young man has right to be.
 Geneyieve was not only charming; she was also several years old. Not an impolite number of course; but more Junes had slipped by her than had cast their roses upon the head of James. She had just about enough money to take lovely care of herself; but she also had to take lovely care of her daughter. who fulfilled to the letter that old but true saying used by the wise Latin peop,e about Mater pulchra, fila pulchrior," which. being translated, means that Iiamma used to be as good looking as daughter is now.
 Daughter was sixteen and in a boarding school.
 James met Genevieye at a dinner. where she was looking lovely, and where he was so happy as to take her in. She was lovely. Her hair was very soft and almost a true corn vel low, and that shade of hair is the easiest thing in the world to keep from turning gray. All wise woman needs is per-well. never mind what. All she needs is to take 1t in time and it will never fade at all
 Geneyieye's hair was not at all arti- ficial; and her eyes were as blue as could be and had a natural baby-staTe that many younger women would have given all their beautiful switches to own. Young Jennie was taller by two inches and her hair was smooth and black and shining But she was at school.
 James fell head over heels in love with Genevieve. He was wonderfully good to look at himself, being an athlete and carrying himself with a swing and a swagger to his shoulders that spoke of pure, physical arrogance.
