LINDA TELLS DAVID
As she read the letter over for the
third time, she was very glad that
her father had not mentioned her
mother for she remembered he new
81 did unless he had been drinking.
Ter heart grew bitter against that
mother who had not only deserted
nerself, but him. She wondered
what her father had TO confess. Was

perhaps IL mother had clung "a

made something Nof his life. Now
suppose he thinks even / will soon

y save his last remnant Of self-respect
BY going first"
After she had finished her "good
CRY" she felt better. AT first she
thought she would call up David. but
quickly decided she would have to
settle things for herself in the fu-
ture. She started putting the house
IN perfect order as an unconscious
calming OF her frazzled nerves.

For once Lynda had q queer
twinRe of pride. She did not want
David to peer into the places where
she kept her poor possessions.
