"N CARRIAGE IN HEAVEN by
M Ronald Fraser will seem to
many readers book OF rare deli
cacv beauty and insight. To others
to a larger number, perhaps-lt
will seem like a great many words
about practically nothing.
It is the story of love affair,
uncomplicated and simple, on the
surface. A young artist falls IN
love with a girl, marries her, has
a series of petty quarrels with her
leaves her. finds that he can't live
without her. and comes back TO
her. and the book closes with the
implicit assurance that they all
lived happily ever after.
That in bare outline, is the story.
AS a matter of fact, its a lot of
stories-about half of all the Eng
lisn novels that have been published
in the last decade. But Mr.. Fraser
work is a cut above the average.
His hero and heroine are tor
mented by a vision of the ideal.
The first moments Of their love
were utterly rapturous: and neither
could endure it when the slow pace
of day-to-day living brought them,
inevitably. down out Of the Elysian
fields into the ordinary workaday
world
So they fought over nothing; at
times they almost hated each other
for being unable to sustain the
high pitch of those first hours.
The story really is the description
Of how they found way to pre-
serve the splendor of their vision.
Mr.. Fraser does get his feet a
long way of the ground. Some will
find his book rarely beautiful. 9th
ers, fear. will be bored badly by it.
Published by Scribners, the book
retails at 50.

Would it mean going to parties
and meeting a lot Of swell society
people? Janet laughed and said
no, she was quite sure it didn't.
Pauline Hayden urged Janet to
call her up occasionally, and she
promised that she would
It was a busy week and the days
flew by At the Office Hamilton
was trying to wind up outstand-
ing accounts, to get work done that
would make it easier for his sue
ccssor to take the re.ns.
He had innumerable conferences
with the business manager. He
would let corresponding wait or
sandwich it in between appoint
ments. and then Janet would have
to work until nearly 6 transcribing
her notes.
Mrs. Snyder regretted losing a
steady roomer, "one who always was
ready with the rent money and no
trouble at all, but she took the
news Of Janet's departure philo-
6Ophically.
She never had, she said, been one
to tell others how 20 manage their
own affairs. And if some day Janet
wanted to come back, she'd be more
than welcome.
KEOLLIE LAMBERT was more
1V1 outspoken, Mollie was frankly
envious when Janet told her about
the beautiful home IN which she was
to live
Gosh, what a break!" she ex-
claimed. But I guess you deserve
it. Maybe you'll invite me out some
time, viii you?'
why, Of course, I will!'
Mollie eyed the other girl. "Thatn
be swell. You know what bet,
Janet? I bet you'll meet some rich
fellow out there and he'll fall in
love with you. That's Whatll hap
pen. He'll fall in love with you and
you'll get married.
"Mollie!" Janet exclaimed. Don't
be silly! Why how could anything
like that happen?"
why couldn't it, I'd like to
know?"
Just because it couldn't. I'm
going to Mrs. Curtis to work! I'm

And one time I saw a picture
with a girl like that in it. Kay
Francis played the part. Say-did
she have a swell time"
Janet laughed But this isn't
the movies, Mollie. Listen, would
YOU like to have my cooking dishes?
There aren't so many, but 1 can't

them away"
sure. I would! Say, hope Mrs.
Snyder doesn't rent that room OF
yours to an old cross-patch like the
woman on the top floor. Always
bowling if anybody makes the
slightest noise!
Sure, I'll be glad to have the
dishes. I'll come in and get them
whenever you want me to-" Janet
promised to let her know and hur-
ried away to get at her packing.
In all the hustle of extra work at
the Office and busy evenings at
home, there was one person to
whom she forgot to tell the news.
She remembered Thursday evening
