FRIDAY.
"Well. Mayfeld is certainly sorry to
see Mary CO." remarked Annie Relic, as
the family sat gathered about the dinner
table on the return Of Mrs. Hooper and
her sister-in-law from the farewell party
the Woman's Club had given her In the
afternoon.
And II was so wonderful Of them to
give ne this lovely wrist watch for q
Keepsake" said Mrs. Hooper, CHANGING ad-
mlringly at the small gold timepiece on
a black silk band that encircled her wrist.
Il never expected to own one in my life"
The Bride had much TO do with your
having the wrist watch, I understand"
Belle went on Mrs. Chaplin told me all
about it.
What did she sayf" asked Mrs. Hoop.
er curiously Il had no idea who selected
the present for the cluL."
Well. It was the Bride" said Bella
~All members Of the club contributed to-
ward the present and then they ap-
pointed a committee to buy you some
| thing. several Of them suggested that
It would be nice Just to give you the
check and let you use 1t for anything you
liked"
Il Kind Of wish they had" said the
practical minded Mrs. Hooper. then
could have bought something useful for
the house IN Indianapolis"
That's exactly what the Bride said
( you would do, and she wanted you to
have something for yourself as re-
membrance from the club"
( But Jewelry is something that you'd
think they'd never decide on giving me-"
( laughed Mrs. Hooper. I've never worn
anything in all the years they've known
me but my little pearl brooch and my
wedding ring"
| You are quite right IN supposing they
never would have thought Of It," said
her sister-in-law. They suggested cleo
trio cooking paraphernaia OF every de-
scription as being what you would Ike
better than anything or a new reading
lamp and even a handsome wardrobe
trunk was suggested"
"Oh, I do wish they'd given me that"
exclaimed Mrs. Hooper regretfully.
Well. the Bride nearly gave in to the
suggestion of the wardrobe trunk"
laughed Belle she said hers was such
Joy and that she believed you'd love to
have one like It"
+ How did she come to influence them
/ TO buy q watch then 2" asked Henry,
/ III the trunk was IN such high favor"
she finally convinced them that you'd
probably buy yourself a wardrobe trunk
some time, but that you never would
buy a watch" answered Belle, and. be-
sides, something that you could wear
and always have around would be a
much more intimate gift from the club
than trunk that would be the greater
part Of the time IN the attic or store
room"
We viii probably have no attic or
stOreroOm where we VIII have to live
in the city" broke in Mr. Hooper
glumly.
"oh, there you go again Henry ex-
claimed Mrs. Hooper, "Of course we will
have some place 70 store our trunks no
matter how small our quarters are
But what finally convinced them that
she was right about a watch being the
best thing TO give you" Belle won't on
without noticing Henry's reference to
| the cramped quarters he expected In their
; new home or his wife's cheerful differ
ence OF opinion, was that when Betty
was Ill you had remarked s number OF
times how very handy the wrist watch
was that she always wore. and that IL
was the only piece OF jewelry that you
would like TO own"
81 do remember saying that" acknoEi-
edged Mrs. Hooper, "but OF course I
never IN the world expected 20 have
one"
That's Just what the bride said was
the reason you should have It on this
| OCCASION said Belle, and 1 certainly
agree with her"
II wonder II III get & present at
my party tomorrow" piped up Helen.
why the very idea OF you expect
ing present frowned her Auntte
Belle, isn't a party enough for your
"Wen mother wasn't expecting 9 pres
ent," Helen answered back, but she got
one so I thought It might happen to me,
too
Your mother VIII be a great loss to
MayheId," continued Belle. who had been
very much impressed By the evident
esteem In which her sister-in-Iaw was
held by the club women. You'll live
a long time In the city before your neigh
bors will make as much fuss about you
as those women did today"
"WeH I've lived nearly twenty years
In Mayfeld," Mrs. Hooper reminded her,
