isn't easy to write. 1t all comes
back to me in hazy sort of way
as something that might have
happened to my own other self
but which could never in the world
have happened to the plain every
day me.
OF course after the first novelty
of being on a real, honest-to-
goodness destroyer wore Off. there
was more time to devote to
thought-and thinking just at that
particular time wasn't in any re-
spect a pleasant pastime.
I almost got Juanita's habit Of
sitting by the deck rail. with my
eyes out over the water. watching
and wondering. I'm quite sure IT
was only my very optimistic dis
position which enabled me to live
through those weary days and
nights of search.
I began to long for the sight Of
land. l began to think OF Grace
and Bob and willard and how
happy we all were before this ter
rible thing came upon us, and Ia
get so "moony" at times that I'd
feel almost like jumping over
board.
But. as I've said before, I'm not
one to stay downhearted long. A
word Of cheer from the pilot or the
Secret Service man or the terribly
nice captain Of tho destroyer and I
would be lifted from the depths of
despair to the heights OF hope.
Juanita, too. seemed more cheerful
since she told me about tho money.
and had assured her-though tho
Lord only knows how I could have
had tho nerve-that she would give
tho money to Texas Tiger" herself.
Those words Of mine seemed to have
bosted her up quito a bit.
EXPECTED sCRIMMAGE.
I don't know how long We were
on the water. In the monotony OF
just sailing on and on, and not
knowing Just wherewe were headed
nor how long IL would take to reach
our destination I rather lost track
OF time.
What do know IL that early ono
morning Juanita and / were awak-

Immediately began to expect that he
was solft-saiving us to meet i'm
pending danger, "All you've got to
do now II to sit steady in tho boat
and not got excited. I may as well
tell you to be prepared to see

the child evidently made some dis

said In a scandalized tone. "Oh.

A moment later the child queried,

"Oh, hush" answered Mother irri-

"You see ?" observed tho Successful

you can't demand respect from a

toSpend
Wisely
By Loretto G.. Lynch.

FV VEN the stingy man must ad-
nit that in so far as spend
Ing the house money, his wife
can do much better than he in the
way Of stretching the income.
Is woman spending money
wisely, II she withdraws a thousand
dollars of the family savings from
the bank and puts 1t on a small
home a short distance from the
crowded city where her family is
huddled together and where fresh
air is at premium?
Is she spending money unwisely
IL she invests In a home surround
ed by fresh air and green lawns
and a space for a garden?
That foolish woman" said
hoarder to me the other day. "Just
look at her! She spent SIS for
cretonne to make her home look
cool for the summer. AS IL she
couldn't have gotten along with
out this.
The woman who bought the Gre
tonne was satisfying a certain crav-
ing of her soul for a glance OF a
beautiful thing. She had little
money to spend going away for the
summer. And she bought this
Deautl1ul cretOnne. 1t showed
beautiful apple blossoms on SOM
bre stems, and there were cool.
green leaves, and here and there a
humming bird. 1t satisfied the
eye, the soul. And spending money
for that which satisfies the soul
Is never unwise spending!
Then, I knew of woman who
installed an electric washing ma
chine in her home. True, she could
have gotten along without 1t. On
the old system 1t took her all day
long to do the family washing.
She spent money wisely. The
hoarder would have kept the money
in the bank. and when her break
in health was complete she would
have blamed II entirely on fate.
Spending money for labor-saving
devices, for self-improvement. for
objects to satisfy the souls desire
for the artistic and the beautiful,
for healthier, happier home sur
roundings IS NOT spending I'M
wisely. Nor is patronizing reliable
shops for every purchase, no matter
how Insignificant, unwise.
Spend carefully. Spend your
money wisely. But help keep
America prosperous. The house
wife holds much of our country's
prosperity right within her purse
