Vas Regular 'Tomboy,'
but Liked Frilly FrOcks

70 be a "lady" was not her idea
at all, and simply because she was
hampered by skirts she had abso-
lutely no intention Of not climbing
poles and turning hand springs, If
she so desired. She was a regular
Tomboy Taylor.
And yet through 1t all there was
an undeniable touch Of femininity
which made her peep into mirror
to make sure her hat was "on
straight" and to coax her mother
to buy sheer, frilly things, which
were sure to come to grief on the
nail Of a post which Gertrude hap
pened to be vaulting.
It is inconceivable that the mind OF
one small child could think UP so many
mischievous pranks. But Gertrude al
ways admitted them with such charming
frnnkness, yet the proper amount OF
regret, that forgiveness was certain.
School days were internationally dark
and sunny, for Gertrude had strenu-
GUS and emphatic dislike for most of
her studies, though she did like his
tory.
But, blessed thought, there were al
ways games to be played after school.
and not a game of jacks. which meant
sitting quietly on a step and bouncing
a ball up and down. Any one could
do that.
But throwing ball, with good.
husky arm back Of it. Well, that was
something Of which any girl might be
proud.
Against any boy in school Gertrude
would match her skill IN batting a
ball, bringing cheers of appreciation
from enthusiastic rooters as she slid
home in n cloud of dust and a whirl
or bothersome skirts and long legs.
Just before dinner when the fading
OF daylight and an inward emptiness
would tell her it was time to 60 home,
she would tuck books under arms
and try to slip in unnoticed.
Disheveled, dirt -streaked, face flushed
with the exertion of healthful exercise
ana her eyes shining with fun and the
JOY OF living, she would listen meekly
10 the scolding which usually came.
