and was from Tom Benton. She read
it through delightedly. Winona must
have told Tom that Laurel had gone
home. Tom had put the best of him
self in the letter and had suggested in 1t
that Laurel try writing again. IL set
her thoughts revolving in an entirely
different channel and it was for this
reason that Tom had thought OF the
idea.
Laurel had never tried fiction. but
here in the sleepy old town, with no
household duties, and with Mary spoil
ing her frightfully and bringing coffee
and homo made rolls to her room each
morning, the idea appealed to her as
worth trying. She decided to write a
story about just such girl as Ethel
Bane, and to set II in just such town
as Westbury. She wrote the story on
sleepy afternoons, sitting in the rocker
in her own room with copy pad on her
knee. She took it down TO the News
when it was finished and typed 1t on
her old typewriter to the delight of the
staff. She chatted with the managing
editor who had given her her first job
and looked up all the people she had
known in the old days. Then she sent
the story off to magazine and promptly
forgot all about it.
Three weeks from the day that Laurel
arrived in Westbury. Mr.. Stone came
downstairs. The fact that her father
was so much better made her feel that
she ought to be going HON, and yet the

who was inordinately proud Of him.
Slowly Godfrey Stone grew stronger.
although the doctor told Laurel that he
would never be really well again. He
had a chronic ailment and did not re-
gain his strength as he should have after
his attack.
Laurel's old friends rallied around
her and gave affairs for her. George
Stoddard had married Ethel Bane, a
girl who had been at college with Laurel.
Ethel was pretty and discontented with
life in Westbury. She gave garden
party in the grounds Of the pretty little
cottage where she lived, and invited all
the townspeople to meet Laurel, and
then she was frightfully jealous because
George paid more attention to the guest
than he should have. 1t was all very,
strange and small town" and yet as
Laurel reflected it was not so different
from affairs all over the world.
Granville wrote to her curt, business
like letters which she answered In the
same way. One day letter came to
her on business stationery with the

station in taxi: Laurel's heart beat
fast as the car wound up the drive
way and under the cool portecochere.

out to meet them protesting at the fact
that she had not let them knoY. And
then she was home again, the ruxuri.
