The country road, unshaded by tree
or shrub, stretched straight and dusty
under the burning August sun. A girl
in cool white came slowly out of a
gateway. clicked the latch behind her
and stood gazing obviously at the
book and a box of chocolates; with
the other she raised her ruff1ed skirts
A mile to the woods, a short walk
along shady path to the bank of the
river, then-her canoe-the book
the chocolates, and
With sudden decision she stepped
into the road and began picking her
way gingerly along the edge. When
she reached the opening in the woods
where the path began she heaved an
immense sigh of relief, but without
pausing kept steadily on till she
reached the bank of the river. There
she sank down on the log to which
her small canoe was moored, threw
of her hat, and gasped
'Phew!" she said. Il don't believe
I'd do that again"
She sat few moments, her chin on
her hands. gazing out over the shad-
ed river, then, stepping into her canoe
she arranged herself comfortable on
pile of cushions, places the book
and the chocolates conveniently be-
side her and pushed off.
The air was brooding and somno-
lent; the silence deep. She drifted
lazily-just a touch here and there

wind blew from the south and gently
lifted the soft hair from her brow.
