 It is perfectly astonishing, syd, how implacably unforgiying a good woman can be. l know that Leslie is right but there is such thing as charity and mercy and these are the greatest things in all the world. I realize this, Syd, because at the present moment they are the things I want most and cannot get,
 I can think of nothing else ex- cept Leslie. I am unhappy when l am away from her and unhappy when I am with her and think perhaps the thing that really hurts me most is that she seems quite happy all the time. She is exceed ingly polite to me, asks my opinion of things, looks at me affectionateiy, but still keeps me out of her heart.
 She goes about her work Of get ting the apartment packed up all most with enthusiasm. She reads me long letters that she received from the people who are recon- structing our house, but she reads them in the same affectionate tone of voice with which she reads them to Ruth.

 Just now I have had another misunderstanding with Leslie, Syd. She never seems by any possibility to fathom my character. She always has feeling that shall look upon life just as she does and when she finds that I do not do anything of the sort she is hearthroken.
 My wifes latest edict Is that we are both to'live in the same house, laugh and joke and meet as the best of friends, but nothing more.
 Now I ask.you, Syd, is that not a simply impossible situation?
 You know, I love Leslie; I have always loved her since the first time saw her Within five minutes after I looked upon her face l knew IT, revocably the difference between passion and love.
 Someone has said, l think 1t was Goethe, that the beautiful is great CT than the good, for the beautiful must contain good" It is the same with love and passion. You can have passion without love, but you can not have love without the high est and most glorifed of passion.

 To sit with her in the same room and not be able to put my hands on her dark hair or 10 kiss her when come in or go out of the house is plain hell, Syd.

One of the incest things about the deep, deep woods is the magic there, Of course, lot of grown up people never know of the magic of the woods, but lots of children do. And the Raggedys with their shoe button eyes and happy dispositions, were always able to see fairies and gnomes and elves and magical things. That is why it was always quite easy for them to find a magi- cal soda tree. or fountain or an Ice cream mud puddle or a clump of pie plants, or any number of other magical things.
 So, when they ran away from Toone, the queer little man who lived In the hole in a tree, the Rag
