 When Neal pa sSed the restaurant the day I was lunching with Anthony Norreys I was helpless,< and I knew it.
 I couldn't lean out across the bal cony and shout out across the bal cony and shout to Heal, and there wasn't the slightest hope that Evvy would call his attention to my pres ence, on that he'd do anything more than bow even if she did. So I had to let my brother get away from me again, and I didn't even know where he was living.
 Later in the afternoon, when Tony and I had talked our fill about Betty's happiness and the bravery that was keeping unhappiness at pay, and he had gone back to work put my pride in my. pocket and te1ephoned Evvy. I wanted news of Neal, so I was prepared to let her gloat over m e if only she'd tell me how to get in touch with him. But EVVy wasn't home.

that it might be possible for the same shade to appear red to one and green to another. And this is per fectly true,-the one whose vision is at variance with the rest of the world is known as co1or-blind.
 However, color-bGi ndn ess is the ex- ception rather than the rule and for most of us it is not only possible to distinguish colors at a glance but with a little theory and practice, to choose shades that contrast pIeasingly or effect harmony.
 The elemental lights in perfect ar engagement are seen in the rainbow the sparkle of a diamond, in soap bubbles in the sunlight, in a film of oil on the water, and with these as a beginning the amateur can do much. A sense of color if not inherent can be cultivated and one splendid way of realizing combinations of colors is to examine paintings and ornaments of generally accepted beauty and get a general idea of those that are most harmonious and pleasing
