OUR FIRST YEAR

so very expensive because only had

month. For the flrst payment / gave

JACK agreed that I needed sew

had sewing machines. And he was
sorry that had to use my allow
ance for the down payment.
Jack so often Is worried nowadays
when we discuss our finances that I
have learned to make our converse
tions about money as short as possl-
BILE.
I set out to make my dresses this
summer because Mary Smith says
she can make. two for the price Of
one ready-made. / never learned to
sew very well, my mother hadn't
time to teach me. But today's pat

to try.

people of Importance.
I'VE discovered that people OF
leisure who don't want to do things
are quite ingenious about
getting me to do things for them.

her remade toy department Of the
children's summer camp. Certainly
it's a splendid idea to reconstruct the
discarded toys OF fortunate babies
and sterilize them, and redistribute
them where they will do the most
good.
But sometimes I think the society
women expect me to do far more
than my share. More than once, I've
had to neglect my home to go some
where TO help Jessie Langdon, and
because had so many dolls to dress
I couldn't find time to make up my
lovely organdie. In fact, I never
expect TO finish either of my dresses.
And what I honestly planned to
be a real economy proved an awful
extravaganza.
Hot weather arrived suddenly and
I simply had TO go down town and
buy some ready-made things. They
were not nearly as nice as wanted,
but the best l could AFFORD after 1

to keep that cloth parked in a closet

DRANDIGEE?

Few names could be found that
display so many variations as this,
spelled by a numerous branch of
the family Drandigee. We find be-
sides Drundig, DraDdig, Drandish.
Drandiger, Drondiger and Drandl-
kee. This probably indicates more
that the early members of the
family were Indifferent to matters
of spelling than that they sought
variety or that they changed the
pronunciation Of the name TO any
great extent.
All apparently were connected
with John Drundish, who was liv-
ing in Wethersfield Mass, in 1895.
The opinion is sometimes held that
he was originally of Dutch origin
because some of the same family
are found in the colony of New
Amsterdam at an early day. But
the best authorities insist that they
are all of English origin and add
to the varieties of spelling the name
Drundage. Drundigge and DruDdyge.
