We were now almost at our last
ditch financially. Our house OF

our ears. We were fast nearing the
point where we could blind our
selves 10 the situation no longer,
think even q stranger might have
seen II. Our home began 10 be ac-
tually untidy. The servants did not
receive their wages and so theJ
only half did their work; and my
mother was afraid TO discharge
them. The breakfast dishes would
stand In the dining room until
luncheon time. The sitting room

she was with happy people, she
laughed a great deal and seemed
