father interrupted her, hastily, for
Alix had aired these views before and
he was not In sympathy with them.
"And ] guess you're right: the child
is woman now, with a wOman's re-
sponsibilities," he added. "And her
place is with her husband. They'll
have to solve life together, to learn to-
gether I'll speak to Cherry!"
AlIx, watching him walk away,
thought that she had never seen Dad
look old before She saw the shadow
on his kind face all the rest of that
day.
1t was only the next morning when
he opened the question with Cherry.
1t was brilliant morning, with
spring already in the air. Cherry, Oh

from Martin. Her father sat down be-
side her. She had on one of her old
gowns and, bathed In soft sunlight.

sweet and pungent and damp and
fresh, the sky high and blue, and
across the granite face of Tamalpais
q last scarf of mist was floating.
"Well, what has Martin to sayr'
asked the doctor.
"Oh, he doesn't like 1t much :! Cher
~ said, making little face. "He de-
scribes the village as perfectly hope
less. He's moved into the little house
In K street, and gotten two stoves
up"
"And when does he want his girl?"
her father pursued.
"He doesn't say" Cherry answered,
innocently. 81 think he is really hap
pier to have me here, where he knows
am well off," she said. 81 know l
am" she ended after a moments
thought.
Her father was conscious OF a pang (;
he had not even formed the thought
In his own mind that Cherry was un-
happy. The child, he told himself, had
good husband. a home and health,
and undevelOped resources within
herself. 1t was puzzling and painful
to him to realize that there was need
ed something more-and that that
something was lacking. He felt sud
den anger at Martin; why wasn't Mar

"Thanks to your Cherry said,

quite firmly, just before Christmas"
she added, "but / told him that Dad
had been such an angel and liked so
much to have me here" And Cher
rvs smile was full of childish triumph.
'My DEAR" her father said, spurred
to sudden courage by a realization
that the matter might easily become
serious, you mustn't abuse his gen
crosby. Suppose you write that
you'll join him-this is March-sup-
pose you say the first of April?"
Cherry flushed and looked down.
Her lips trembled. There was mo
ment Of unhappy silence.
"Very well, Dad" she said in a low
voice. A second later she had jumped
to her feet and vanished in the house.
Her father rOamed the woods In
wretched misgivings, coming in at
lunch time to find her in her place,
smiling, but traces of tears about her
lovely eyes.
Nothing more was said for a day Or
two, and then Cherry read aloud TO
the family an affectionate letter in
which Martin said that everything
would be ready for her whenever she
came COW.

man said, deliberately. Cherry's look
of elaborate surprise and pleasure
died before his serious glance. She
was silent for a moment.
"Why don't you ask herr" she said
in low, thoughtful tone, trembling,
eager to preserve his mood without a
false note.
81 have" he answered simply.
Cherry's heart jumped with a sudden
unexpected emotion. What was IT.
Not pleasure, not all surprise-surely
there could be no jealousy mixed with
her feeling for Peters plansT But
she was dazed with the rush Of feel
ing; hurt in some fashion she could
not stop TO dlssect now.
"And she said no?" she stammered
in confusion.

was silent. "Does-dOes Dad knOw?'

That's the chicken thing" Peter
shouted back, springing up to disap-

still in the new spell OF the pleasant
voice, the strangely appealing and yet
masterful personality.

As usual II was midnight before any

hours, and when he bundled them up
in his own big loose coats to drive
them home, Cherry was thinking of
