Even through my flaming anger l realized that as he followed the venomous words with a quick contrite: Sorry, l4il, I don't mean to doubt your word, Of course"
 "Never mind about me-" Lillian retorted. Me. I make no never minds in this It's your reaction to what Madge did that's important. Now, give you my word that Madge went to explain things to Philip Veritzen not of her own volt- ton, solely at my urging, and that their presence at the tearoom was simply because they could talk bet ter there than in a car I expect you 10 believe me and to calm down. You can fight the question out with Madge later if you wish. when you're in a saner mood. But just now you're Eoing to see her alone only over my dead body"
 Dicky bent to his steering wheel, averting his eyes from both of us.
 There is nothing more to be said, evidently" he commented with q shruE. T always bow to your de- cisions, Lillian. You know that. And-I accept your explanation. of course" .-
 He sent the car along the drlve- way and around the corner of the house, while Lillian leaned back in the seat and gave deep sigh
 Was Dtcky Jealous:
 That's the worst run-in I've had in many a year." she said, and l don't like it. But when he gets in one of those jealous tantrums of his nothing but rough stuff goes. One thing you ought to hug to your tlchI"ll JCAlOu6y le proof of love you don't need to worry about the state of your spouse's affections for the present at least"
 She did not look at me as she spoke. and got the impression that she was carefully avoiding my eyes. I was glad indeed of her thoughtfulhess - if such 1t were for I feared that she would see in my crimson face and my excited eyes how deeply her apparently casual remark had stirred mex
 Was it possible that one reason for Dicky's jealous aversion to Philip Veritzen was revival of his old temptestuous feeling for me? In all my troubled consideration of the enlargement between my husband and me, I had not considered this possibility.

I1uLIAL IICII
ISy Alice Julslll1 lDrAlc

A generation ago all children we're
told that they owed a great debt to
father and mother for the parents
goodness in giving them food to cat.
"A nice he'd 10 sleep in and pretty
clothes to wear: and earnest children
tried to assume the proper express
sions of filial respect and gratitude.
To think a critical thought Of
ones parents was a sin. to utter one
was a mai or crime. "Filial duty" was
one of those concepts that permitted
no examination.
Today. among thinkers. another
attitude is voiced. Children owe their
parents nothing, not love. not
obedience. not respect: they have
but one duty, and that Is to grow up.
But parents owe their children
everything. Children do not ask to be
born. They come into most din
cult world, naked and helpless. and
the authors of their predicament are
fully responsible for protecting and
nurturing them. and for. helping
them to learn how to live a satisfac-
tory life. '-",
The wise parent does not desire
the respect that comes with cap In
hand and faltering speech. but looks
instead for the freely given conf
dence that is born Of the child's
whole trust and well founded admi-
ration. The wise parent knows. too.
that gratitude is virtue which
emanates from the teeth out and
shows tendency to disappear on
those very occasions when 1T is sup
posed to stand by. He never thinks
or talks of gratitude.
The sole reward of parents is one
which they must earn. The only re-
turn for all their care and sacrifice
must come IN their pure delight in
the ways Of children and in the Joy
of living anew through their young
lives.
