to drop them At the cleaners on his way 70

one leaves about the house.
He decided, in the intersticss Of . some.
what crowded day at the ONCE, that It would
be best to tell Margaret about his experience
in coming home from the country club-im-
u,>diatsty. He could describe it briefly and
humorousiy and without too much insistsncs
on the hour when he got home.
But when hs was face 10 face with Mar
sarst at dinner that evening, he began TO
consider the possibility Of not telling Mar
sarst He had neither the skill nor the con-
troll to sive Margaret the true picture-to
sketch in the easualness Of the occasion, to
show the utter RIGHTEOUSNESS Of his misad-
venture, and to suggest firmly the triviaiity
Of the whole business.
M.rraret's mind would be certain to seize
upon the more outstanding facts, instead Of
on the significant ones Margaret would note

hour At which they had awakened Mr. Rron,

When he looked at 1t now william was
astonished that one shirt could carry 90

Margaret held that shirt up and looked at
william.

And then Margaret burst into tears.

his arm around her shoulders to draw her
to him. But she dung him Oh.

He wished he could consult Maiste Blase.
He wanted to talk to Maisis Biass. Half the
fun Of thing like that wss In talking it
over aftsrvard- But he couldn't have that
half, unless he met Maisis by chance.
