CHAPTER.
Mother Lorimer Kisses
Me" "This for a Little
Grandson. "

Lately. when I'm very sorry or
very glad-it doesn't make any diff
ference which, cry. Both emotions
have crammed today. In the dusk
of the evening I slipped away TO my
favorite bench under the pines. dis
tractediy glad to find a sufficient
reason for Bob's mood when he left
excited still over the departure OF
the recruits, troubled enough by
Tony Curtis too intimate glance,
and worried to the depths Of my
soul because there did not appear
affairs as ! had so valiantly de-
manded In the morning.
II was sobbing softly to myself
when Jimmy-boy dropped onto the
bench beside me. He came, 1 knew
to talk about the Thomas girl.
Jimmie Is kind and tender crea-
ture. and as impersonally chivalrous
as Certeis is selhshly so. Now
dropped my head on Jim's olive drat
shoulder and shed my ready tears
UT was a handy moment to be a.
weak as I felt I needed to be and
/ must have made the most of II
for presently Jimmie was pleading:
Jaw, cut 1t out. Sissy, can't youi

But Jimmie-boy." I walled. 'this
is the first chance I've had to lean
on a strong arm since Bob left"
Make the most OF II, IL you've go,

what's come over you? Usually
you're too independent. What's
making you woozy all of sudden?

reliant. Chrys says it's Just as easy
to make your mind reflect your body
as to let your. body express your
mind.

were floating out into a nice cool
black night where / could sleep for
ever and ever.
When the light came back after
my faint, found myself in bed.
Bob's mother was sitting by my side,
Benjie named her precious old
thing'-he got the slang In Canada
and she loves to have US call her
by the queer English phrase.
She said she had sent for DR.. Mas
ters, and she held my hand while
the doctor asked me a lot Of ques-
tions no physician ever put to me
before. Then he discussed my con-
dition In plain words.
After he had gone, dear Mother
Lorimer kissed me on the righ,
cheek saying, This for a little grand
son." and then she kissed me on
the left cheek with "or thi. for a
baby granddaughter. Oh. IL only We
could see Bob when he gets the
news"

"These landlords forget that the

Many landlords also are beginning
to curtail and cut down on service and

They read their contracts as some
people do their Bibles, merely the
