then the weary journey back home,

But the day was holiday, so
Mrs. Barker and Mrs. Gray let
themselves forget everything
but their zest for the anticipated
pleasure.
Just as the telephone con-
versation was finished Mr.. Barker
came home and listened while
his wife repeated the plans for
the next day.

out in the country somewhere
and take along a picnic basket"
he asid.

they will enjoy the ride.
Well, let's ask them" agreed
Mrs. Barker.
So the three little Barkers
were consulted and with one ac-
cord they shouted 1.-THE country"
We are going to the country!
Hoorayv'
Then Mrs. Barker called her
sister and the little Grays were
also consulted. They were
equally delighted with the pros
pect of getting out in the beau
tiful open, away from the hard
pavements, the crowd and the
stifIingness of the city.
So the two fanilies-fathers,
and all-spent the day in the
country. The children climbed
trees, gathered wild flowers,
rolled on the grass in the warm
sunshine, and played the old
fashioned games that their
mothers played when they were
very young.
They had a picnic lunch and
Just before they started home in
the evening they ate supper.

other health precautions. The meet
