in response to Investigations Of hers,
seemed to point that way: "Don't you
think" he said, "really. don't you
think that being things Is rather better
than doing things"
He said "rahthuh bettuh" for "rather
BETTER" and seemed to do it deliberate
ly, with perfect knowledge of what he
was doing. Later, Lucy Knocked him
to George, and George refused to
smile: he somewhat inclined to such
RECOMMENDATIONS, himself. This inclina-
ton was one Of the things that he had
acquired in the four years.
What else he had acquired, it might
have puzzled him to state, had any
body asked him and required n direct
reply within a reasonable space Of
time. He had learned how to pass ex-
aminations by "cramming;" that is, in
three or four days and nights he could
get into his head enough Of a selected
fragment of some scientific Of philO-
sophical or literary or linguistic sub
ject to reply plausibly to six questions
out of ten. He could retain the infor-
nation necessary for such q feat just
long enough to give a successful per-
Torrance; then it would evaporate ut
terly from his brain, and leave him I'M
disturbed. George, like his "crowd,"
not only preferred "being things" to
"doing things" but had contented him
self with four years Of "being things
as n preparation for going on "being
things" And when Lucy rather shyly
pressed him for his friends probable
definition of the "things" 1t seemed so
superior and beautiful to be, George
raised his eyebrows slightly. meaning
that she should have understood with
out explanation; but he did explain:
"Oh, family and all that-being q gen.
tleman. I suppose"
Lucy gave the horizon a long look,
but offered no comment.
"Aunt Fanny doesn't look much bet
ter" George said to his mother, q few
minutes after their arrival, on the
night they got home. Doesn't she get
over it at all? I thought she'd feel
better when we turned over the insur-
ance to her-gave it to her absolutely.
without any strings to it. She looks
about a thousand years old"
"She looks quite girlish, sometimes,
though" his mother said.
Has she looked that way much

mot so much" Isabel said thought
fully. "But she will. as time cOes on"
"Tlme'l have to hurry, then, it seems
to me-" George observed, returning to
his own room.

the last night of Georges vacation

contented with the "almost," but con-

of George Anderson Minafer inside it,
found himself wonderful in q new
world at the final instant Of their part
ing. For, after declining to let him
kiss her "good-by," as if his desire for
such a ceremony were the most pre-
posterous absurdity in the world, she
had leaned suddenly close to him and
left upon his cheek the veriest feather
from a fairy's wing.
She wrote him a month later:

know well enough that I care for you.

and I'm pretty SURF you knew tim

it scares me. 1t means a good deal to
a lot of people besides you and me,
and that scares me. too. I shouldn't
be a bit surprised to find myself an

stood there.
She kept her eyes upon his white
face for a few strained moments, then,
regaining her nerve, looked away and
shrugged her shoulders.
"You weren't intended to hear what
I've been saying, George" she said
quietly. But since you SEEM"
Eyes, I did"
"So!" She shrugged her shoulders
again. "After all, 1 don't know but

He walked up to where she sat. "You

Old Bronson had risen from his
chair in great distress. "Your aunt
was talking nonsense because she's
piqued W a business matter,
George" he said. "She doesn't mean
what she said, and neither she nor
anyone else gives the slightest credit
to such fOOlishness-nO one in the
world"

suddenly along his lower eyelids.

after inscribing his protest in the mat

Guided his missive in a tone notified
to tenderness, and proceeded to read q
letter from his mother which had
reached him simultaneously with
Lucy's. Isabel wrote from Asheville,
where she had just arrived with her
husband:
II think your father looks better al
ready, darling, though we've been here
only a few hours. 1t may be we've
found just the place to build him up.
The doctors said they hoped it would
prove to be, and if it is, it would be
worth the long struggle we had with
him to get him to give up and come.
I'm afraid that in my anxiety to get
him to do what the doctors wanted
him to, l wasn't able to back up Broth
er George rs l should in his difficulty
with Sydney and Amelia. I'm so sorry !
George Is more upset than I've yer
seen him-they've got what they want
ed. and they're sailing before long, 1
hear, to live in Florence. Father said
he couldn't stand the constant per-
suading-I'm afraid the word he used
was 'nagging.' can't understand peo-
pie behaving like that. George says
they may be Ambersons, hut they're
vulgar! Pm afraid l almost agree with
him. At least, l think they were in

place agrees with him. 1t does really
seem to already! He's just called in
the door TO say he's waiting. Don't
smoke too much. darling boy.
"Devotedly, your mother,
ISABEL"
But she did not keep her husband
there for the six weeks she ANTICIPATED.
She did not keep him anywhere that
long. Three weeks after writing this
letter, she telegraphed suddenly to
George that they were leaving for
home at once; and four days later,
when he and a friend came whistling
into his study, from lunch at the club,
he found another telegram upon his
desk.
He read it twice before he compre-
hended It's import.
Papa left us ut ten this morning,
dearest.
"MOTHER."
The friend saw the change in his
face. "Not bad news?"
George lifted utterly dumfounded
eyes from the yellow paper.

says-she says he's dead. I've got to
go home"
His Uncle George and the
Major met him at the station when he
arrived-the first time the Major had
ever come to meet his grandson. The
old gentleman sat in his closed car
rage (Which still needed paint) at the
entrance to the station, but he got out
and advanced to grasp Georges hand
