If the Windlers' fiat had been COM
mensurate in size with the Windlers'
popularity as evidenced by their we'd
ding presents it would have been so
big they never could have afforded to
pay the rent.
1t was an ideal fiat for family that
was short on furniture and brlc-a-
brac, but it was trial to people on
whom their well meaning friends and
relatives had showered ten times as
much stuff as they could use up in the
course of a normal lifetime. After
nearly acquiring brain fever trying to
dispose their possessions about the
place without having their home look
as though it was about to choke to
death on a superiority of furniture and
miscellaneous wares they gave up and
put three-quarters of their wedding
gifts in the basement storeroom. Then
their troubles began.
Mercy" Mrs Windler cried one
evening just before her aunt and uncle
were due for dinner. Jimmy, we'll
have to get that carved oak hall chest
up here before Aunt Cernelia arrives
or she'll never forgive us! 1t cost a
small fortune and she won't under
stand why"
The rest of Mrs. Windler's remarks
were irrevocably lost in the tumultu'
Gus rush of the Windlers to the base
ment
Mrs Windler's pale rose gown was
soon hopelessly soiled and Windler's
temper was ruined for the whole even
ing, to say nothing of his cuffs. The
hall chest was barely thumped into
place with the help of the subsidized
janitor and the Windlers were still
breathing hard when Aunt Cornelia
and Uncle Jabez arrived. The former
peered sharply at her gift.
Seems to me you don't do much
busting of your things" she said, rub
ring a finger across the chest and leav-
ing a deep depression in the CRIME
that had settled on it in the store
room Seems to me you don't care
much about my gift. LOUISE" When
Aunt Cornelia rebuked one in that
tone the situation was serious.
After the visitors had departed the
chest had to be lugged down to the
basement again, because there was no
other place for the bookcase.
The two large paintings were the
worst. When Cousin Johns folks were
coming the Windlers hung up the pic
ture of the Lombardy poplars and the
sheep. Then they took it down when
the Phillipsons were due and put in
it's place the picture presented by the
Phillipsons showing the garden scene.
This worked all right until Sue San
ders, who could always be depended
upon to say the wrong thing, burst out
in the presence of all the Phillipsons:
"Oh, you've changed your pictures!

A CASE OF SOMETHIEG
HAD TO HAPPEN ANYHOW

Why, you have a new one! What did
you do with the cute one Of the sheep
and poplars that has always hung
right here till now?"
That threw a GOODNESS upon the Phil
lipsons that never was eradicated.
"They acted" stormed Mrs. Windler
helplessly after they were gone, "as
though it was our fault that we didn't
have five walls in this room instead of
four! I hate their old picture, any
howl"
The silver, however, created the
most trouble, because there was so
much of it.
However, they knew they were u.s.
ing the wrong teaspoons the night the
Smiths dined with them by the pecul.
iarly cold manner in which Mrs. Smith
regarded the ones at her plate.
They realized that they had made
the wrong selection in silver bread
plates when Uncle Hiram pointedly
inquired who had given them the plate
that they preferred to his gift. He
said he had hoped when he devoted
week to selecting it that he had picked
out something they really would like.
Altogether, the Windlers had a terri
BILE time smoothing down Uncle Hiram.
They thought it odd that the more
money a relative had the more easily
and deeply his feelings were injured
When any of the girls gathered at
l.
