Calvin Percival was the worry OF

Mrs. Moore could tell from the
look in Calvin Percivars eyes what
he wanted her to say. He wanted
her TO tell him that he might join the
Jones boy in the potato roast But
Mrs. Moore was doubtful, for she
knew right we'll that every time those
two boys got together there would be
trouble-every single time. Ii it
wasn't Calvin Percival who came
home with a diScolored eye, or
bleeding nose Tor BOTH it was the
Jones boy-Tom Jones was his full
name.
Then she thought of the sheet of
resolutions Calvin had just written
written without even a protest
and how he had said he would never
diSobey her.

Technically speaking. the Home

they had been reserved only for
the master Of the home. or for
some houored guest. The persons

The school of Hepplew used
carving with inlay in Colored
woods. while the sheraton
School employed designs of Sa-

flowers and classical figures. Lac

left its impress. Furniture from
