it her "si-esta," long i.) Monona was PLAYING

A man came round the house and stood

He did so, turned round like dog before his
chair and sat down heavily, forcing his fingers

Lulu flushed and glanced at him pitifully.

her replies were given with sufficient quiet
But she told him her name as one tells some

She felt as one may feel in catastrophe-no
sharp understanding, but merely the sense that
the thing cannot possibly be happening.
You folks expect me?" he went on
Oh, yes,' she cried, almost with vehemence.

puted. II never met that one. Then it's
close to twenty years since Bert and I have
seen each other"
"How awful" Lulu said, and flushed again.
"Why?"
TO be that long away from your folks"
Suddenly she found herself facing this
honestly, as if the immensity of her present
experience were clarifying her understanding:
Would it be so awful to be away from Bert
and Monona and Di-for twenty years?
You think that?" he laughed "a man
don't know what he's like till he's roamed
around on his own" He liked the sound of it.
"Roamed around on his own,'' he repeated, and
laughed again. "a woman don't know that"

some manner contrived

THESE glances Lulu
saw. She was a
woman of thirty-four
and Di and Bobby were
eighteen, but Lulu felt
for them no adult in

sweetness of attention

Di, saying: "Take some
