YOUR CHILDREN mM;vpRobey7yRalzou

Children love tent. Romance begins to sprout early in the hu- man breast and tent associates itself with almost every type or drama In child's mind-both boys and a girls. Indians. soldiers, brigands, explorers and what not it doesn't matter which, tent IS tent and that's that.
 I have heard mothers talk some thing like this however: "I bought Buddy tent down at Black and Whites, Jim put 1t up in the yard and after a week Buddy wouldn't go near it. Just money thrown away"
 When that happens I wonder If it is really Buddy they bought the tent for. Beginning with husband Jim who put the tent up, did Bud dv have any real say-so about it? Was he allowed to sleep in it? Was he told that he couldn't ask that noisy crowd in because they tore up the yard? Was he ever allowed to drass things out from the house :? If he got all dirty and muddy play ing in it was he scolded? Was he ever allowed to use any imagina- ton of his own whatsoever in play ing In it?
 There Arc Reservations
 As to sleeping outdoors in 1t l think it's a smell idea myself. Of course it depends-alas l loathe that phrase. It always seems to be "depending" on something where children are concerned. Now 1t de- bends on the ground itself first. l. really should be dry. l mean that soaked ground isn't just the best couch in the world. Dew, however. won't reach the ground under n tent. Then too 1t depends on req sonable amount of safety from street dangers.
 We might discount these largely however, in the average suburb. II Buddy gets nervous in the night (but of course he should have cronies with him and he very like ly won'D and comes stealing in to the embracing friendliness of the good old house, don't make fun of him. We all have a right to get nervous and l for one assert tha: right without expecting to be hu initiated about 1t.
 Children can develop comple% about anything-Or Q phObia to be exactly concise-and they can and will get one about a tent, boat, pony. anything indeed that be- comes a source of unhappiness or inhibition rather than a real joy.

walking stiffly through the hall to- ward the garden. Perhaps she had put significance on those words that did not belong there. Damon was overwrought and she had flung the first words that came into her mind at Nora. Forgive? Why should Damon forgive her? Had Damon penetrated her secret thought that she had never loved Nicholas? Was 1t as plainly to be read as that?
 She stumbled out in the garden and saw Jon moving restlessly about. Nora told him, breathlessly, she thought the old house beautiful.
 My step-father bought up all the land along the river. Foreigners had built their filthy little shacks there, had even built stores. But my step- father had that all torn down. The country's as it used to be now, thank God"
 They walked down the sloping lawns to the river. The river lay so still it seemed under an enchant- ment. On the far banks she could see an old red ice-house, that stood abandoned
 The blue gleam of the railroad tracks, spinning away in the dis tance, caught her eye. Nora watched a train come around the bend, it's trail of smoke black against the sky. In a moment it's shrill farewell left them again to silence.
 AS they paused near the river, she stole a glance at Jon and then her eyes took in the beauty of the home and it's setting.
 Damon has asked me to come here to live" Nora said at last.
 Jon was sitting in the deep grass, his arms about his knees, his face turned sharply away. But she could see in the very line of his

some cousins staying with us-they are still here" Damon added.
 Her voice was cool and remote. She seemed to Nora to be living secretly back of her transparent gray eyes But Damon was studying Nora with cool and consummate knowledge that frightened her.
 q wish" Damon went on, you would tell me everything"
 Nora's mind was in confusion. She had prepared herself for this. But now she saw that every native would be held up to the light, ev- cry word would damn her. She felt inStinctively that Doman dis trusted her.
 q don't know how to tell you!''
 But there was command in Damon's light eyes. The features that were so delicate were not weak, and the lips, pale as coral, were willful. Her own lips were dry. Sometimes she could not go Cn; but Damon waited until she was able to continue. Once Nora looking at her felt Damon's pas sion, banked fire ready to spring out at a word.
 When she had ended Damon said ANicholas left no money. did he? But this was his home. It was his intention that you live here, was it not?"
 But you-do you want me? Nora cried.
 sWe all want to do what Nicho- las would have wished Damon said.
 Nora wanted to cry out to her AOh, like me a httlel Why should you distrust me?"
 But Damon sat there so still, her narrow folded hands like nun's her cool narrow face like a nuns except for those light eyes thai

Chapter 16 A HOME FOR NORA?

Nora had been so intent on un- wrapping the picture that h e had not seen the girl who crossed the room to her so quietly. The painting was the Nicholas she want ed to remember, the man who had lived to paint, not the man who had found life futility.
 As she looked up at Damon, her first impression was of plain girl with hair folded about small head like a coif. She was dressed in green knotted silk. Pale as she was, almost colorless, the word ex- quisite suited her
 Ut was so kind of you to come, y Damon said, sitting down beside her. T hope Jon explained to you that we wanted you to come to us at once. But unfortunately we had

looked at Nora and looked so quickly away, with that strange in- ner light.
 Nora wanted the old home with its tradition and it's beauty. She wanted to feel strong and fearless as Damon did, as Jon did, to be- long to people who needed her. But neither Damon nor Jon could ever need her. She felt all at once that she and her father must have some curse upon them, that they must wander to the end of their days. Yet if she could break down Damons distrust =.
 She reached blindly for the paint ing of the peasant woman and lift ed it so that Damon could see it.
 "It is all of Nicholas I have left, she said in choked voice.
 For minutes Damon stood before it, her face turned away from Nora, intent on the picture. Her shoul- ders strained forward, her hands clenched. When she turned Nora saw that the banked passion had burned through.
 "If you could have saved him, l could forgive you!" Damon said.
 "Forgive?" Nora repeated. T don't understand.
 You should have known, you should have seen what he was go- ing to do! He had genius-I see it now-and anyone, anything, should have been sacrificed for him. " She was breathing painfully. Nora stepped back from her. She was al- most afraid of this pale passionate girl.
 q want you to come here to live. You must come" Damon cried. He sent you to us, didn't he? Well then, you cannot refuse to come"
 But Jon"
 You will find Jon out there in the garden. He will want to talk to you"

 Something forced her to say, You don't want me, do you?"
 He turned and looked at her. She had pulled off her bereit and her face above the round white collar of Fran's blouse looked soft and childish. His eyes rested on the rosy mouth in the fresh pale face. Then he turned away.

TELLS HOW TO MAKE
HEALTHFUL CANDIES

T BOHEMIAN, Dec 21--Candy is as
much part of the Christmas expecta-
tons of children as toys but the inva-
riable after-period Of 'tummy" aches
has made mothers careful about allow
in gtoo many of these highly concen-
trated sugar delicacies, according to
Miss Frances Smith, extension foods
and nutrition specialist at Montana
State College The aches, however, can
be avoided and the children satisfied
by mother making candies out Of fruits
Partisan sweets sound inviting to lit
tie tots even before they know what
the name means. Several recipes are
available and very few ingredients are
needed One, which Miss Smith sug-
gests, is made with two cups raisins,
one-fourth cup honey and one cup of
nuts Grind raisins and nuts through
chopper, add honey and mix thorough
ly. Pat out in flat sheets and pack under
pressure for % hours. Cut in squares
and delicacy is ready that no child
or adult need scorn.
Dates and prunes, dried and stoned,
stuffed with marshmallow and rolled
in granulated sugar is another tasty
delicacy which Miss Smith recon-
mends This sweet is easy to digest
and has the added advantage of being
rich in iron making it valuable food.
Gelatin candies, pulled grain candies
and pop corn balls are other sugges-
lions which Miss Smith has to offer
Hard candies may even be used with
out danger. This applies to those that
require sucking as this act actually
flutes the candy and takes away the
irritating after effects.
A good many Christmas suggestions
and others that are valuable to mothers
who like to make tasty delicacies are
available in Kitchen Made Gifts, !"

obtained from home demonstration
agents or by writing to Miss Smith at
