school Whenever she came bacL
for her vacation or for the holidays she
was sure TO be surrounded by bevy OF

who in the privacy of their rooms sped

hope vanish. My father treated the
whole matter as joke, but my mothers
eyes grew misty as she gently told me
that going to college was out of the
question and that it was all they could
do to keep me in the public school until
graduated. Ny mother was stsunch
