Dick finished making the trellises
that week and set them up.
The four weeks Of July dragged
on as though they were -four
months. Eve had never minded
working during the summer, but
this year her discomfort was chiefly
due 70 the fact that she was work
ing while her husband was not
once she suggested that Dick
might look for work and he gave
her a whitening glance.
I've was glad that Dorothy Nc
II Chimney was spending the
summer with her parents out of
town. At least Dick would be free
from her persistent wiles Miss Leeds
was on a European tour and Eve
missed her. The cards which she
sent from Switzerland and Italy
awakened in Eve a strong desire for
such trip.
I suppose we'll never be able to

why not?" asked Dick.
Look at all the money We are
losingl" she pointed out. The sal
any you might have earned this
summer would have covered such a
trip for us"
Yes and it might have made a
down payment on the Empire State
Building" Dick answered. But I'm
not sure that is Just what 1 would
have done with it,"
Thus he answered each of Ewes
gibes concerning his lack of en-
ployment.
According to the policy of Bixbys
store, Mona Allen and Mrs. Penney
did not receive vacations because
they had worked there less than
year. Arlene departed for two weeks
at a Y. w. c. A. camp.
III have some fun even if I don't
meet any eligible admirers" she said
good humOredly when she left the

excerpts from it to Dick that eve

well, you know But he insists
he stopped drinking the night he
met me at Fredas party and hasn't
touched liquor since. He says I
am more inspiration to him than
the best gin on the market.
I love it here! I lead the stair
case choir every morning after
breakfast and now I'm working up
an act for Stunt Night.
Thanks for the books you sent.
For the first time in my life have
enough time to read. I'm leaving in
a moment for my morning swim.
Give my love to Mona"
Eve stopped reading and said,
Sam must be glad Arlene is where
she won't meet any one to give him
competition"
You old romanticist!" Dick chal-
lenged.
We'll. it's a neat little triangle
Just the same. Sam likes Arlene
and Arlene likes George Bliss. I'm
not sure who Bliss cares for"
And 1 like you and you'll have
to pay for looking as sweet as you
dol" Dick told her, gathering her
into bis arms.
BIT their life together was not
always so peaceful. There was the
+ evening when Eve, looking up from
magazine, exclaimed, Dick,
don't know why you have to keep
putting at that old pipe all the
timel That's the fifth time you've
/ filled it since I came home"
Wrong! It's the sixth he told
her cheerfully, knocking the ashes
into a low brass bowl
L think you smoke too much,
Eve went on in a petulant voice.
Worried about my health, dear?"
NO, I'm thinking how much it
/ costsi" she blurted out. Smoking
( is an expensive habit. You aren't
working and yet you smoke just as
much as ever"
