 Angela's long gray blue eyes mar rowed into a glittering line.
 What ARE you talking about, Honey Lou Wallack?"

 But it was Tim who persuaded you to go," Angela said calmly. looking her straight in the eye. Don't you remember? You got out of the car, and then he came down and made you get back into 1t. I tried to stop you from going. as I remember"

Menus for he Family
BY SISTER MARY

Breawfast - Canned pineapple, cereal cooked with figs, yeast buck wheat cakes. sausage, milk, coffee.
 Luncheon - Baked cabbage with bacon. rye bread, cranberry roly- poly, milk. tea,
 Dinner Creamei veal, mashed potatoes, buttered canned peas, stuffed peach salad. toasted crack CTS, whole wheat bread. steamed carrot pudding, milk. coffee.
 When salad is served as a sep arate course, some crisp bit Of bread stuff adds much to the ser vice, And it's really TO more work 10 serve the separate course because the dishes all have to be put on and taken off at some stage of the game, whether it's all done before, turing or after the meal.
 Stuffed Peach Salad

 Drain peaches from syrup and chill. Combine nuts, celery and CO., coanut adding enough peach syrup 10 make moist. Fill cavities Of peaches with mixture and put two halves together. Put into a crisp leaf os head lettuce, mask with may onraisa and serve,
 Tiny brown bread sandwiches with a filling of cream cheese and minced olives are particularly good to serve with this salad.

| had gone. She wondered if Angela had given her name to the news paper correspondent. Would An- gela have done a beastly thing like that to her. her very best friend?
 "Oh, I'm sure she wouldn't" she decided, after long thought. Angela was too loyal. But then she did love to talk and tell things.
 At the end of May Angela came home. Honey Lou did not know that she was in town until she happened to look out of the kitchen window one afternoon.
 In the big green yard behind the Aliens stone house a slender figure in shining black satin was romp- ing with a police dog. Could 1t be Angela?
 Honey Lou went out on the back porch and looked again. It was Angela!
 Did you know Miss Allen was home?" she asked Mary when she stepped back into the kitchen. Have you seen her before?"
 Mary knew most of what was going on in the neighborhood. From the window of her neat kitchen she kept an eye on every thing within sight.
 Sure knew it," she said, wash- ing lettuce leaves as she might have washed dirty clothes. Sure. I saw her yestiddy and the day before. She's been home this long time. Didn't you know it then. Mig Wallack, ma'am?"
 Five minutes later Honey Lou was squeezing herself through the narrow opening in the back fence. She went straight through the Wallack's backyard without q glance at the house, and around to the Aliens front door.
 Angela came in from the back yard, the police dog at her heels.
 She smiled her sweetest when she saw Honey Lou, and holding her by both hands led her into tho bright luxurious living room where Honey Lou had drunk her first cocktails, almost a year ago.

 I was so afraid tary would see through my scheme for satisfying myself that she was safely in bed each night, tha- l abruptly switched my conversation away from Dicky's experiments with bedlight to the possibilities of her own.
 "If you'll tell me where l can find a piece of ribbon, Mary" l said hur- riedly "I'n try my luck at fixing up your ligh like your uncle's.' She sat up in bed and aimed an imaginary lorgnette at my shoulders.
 I'm just looking for the wings, Auntie Madge." she said with little moue. "Im sure they're sprouting, you blessed angel you. And as for the ribbon. If you'll open my work basket on the dresser. you'll find a bolt of narrow blue ribbon."
 I walked toward the dresser, and secured the ribbon. Mary watched me anxiously while shipped off the length I desired.
 ''Is 1t strong enough7" she asked worriedly. ...
 "Plenty," reassured her. and in a few seconds l had attached the rib bon to her light chain. and run the other end through the back of her book In the same fashion as that which Dicky had invented for his own comfort.

It's fact that Reddy Fox knows most of what is going on in the Green Forest, on the Green Meadows, and in the Old Pasture. And the reason that he knows what is going on is because he has a wonderful nose. That sharp little nose of Reddy's is busy most of the time. He uses his eyes, and he uses his cars. but he depends on his nose. And as he Is forever poking that sharp little nose into all kinds of places, he finds out 8 great deal that he isn't supposed to know anything about.
 Now, the best nose in the world would be of no use to any one who did not know how to use it. Reddy not only knows how to use his nose, but he has the patience to use it, and he has the wit to understand what his nose tells him. So, when Reddy discovered the faintest scent of Mrs. Grouse. he grinned and then cSSSAON uOWH " lile DuSllleSS CI IlIlQ- ing out all that his nose could tell him as to what had happened.
 He felt sure that Mrs. Grouse was not dead. "If', said Reddy to him self. Mrs. Grouse had been killed, she would have been picked up near where found those feathers. Now, this scent of Mrs. Grouse is a long way from those feathers. My nose tells me that Mrs. Grouse has been along here. It was some time ago, but there Is no doubt that it is the scent of Mrs. Grouse. That means that Mrs. Grouse was hurt by that terrible gun, but that she managed to get away from the hunter and probably is hiding somewhere. Huh! Whats this?"
 Reddy smelled long and carefully
