win had pretty we'll transformed
the dismal place. Philip, breath
leSsly grateful that somehow, with
the aid of a Mormon doctor from
Benicia and the care of two stolid
wall-eyed Mexican women, Abigail
had actually brought forth a first
born daughter, had made no COM
plants. He had had carted down
wagon loads Of chairs, carpets,
china, bed linen, books-all the per-
sonal possessions of himself and
his bride.
A bride! Poor Abigail had laughed
forlornly on the first anniversary Of
her wedding day. It had found her
weak and weary, stretched on a
mattress on the floor of one of the
cool rooms, with burning August
day hammering away at the spread
level acres of the rancho outside.
Beside her had been Annie Sarah.
They had brought her in hot dusty
grapes, and hot dusty figs, and
warm wine. and finally goats milk,
to solace her in her ordeal. Except
for that, neither Mexican woman
had volunteered anything. They
had watched the frightened, doubt
full, breathless struggle apatheticalr
ly, until their oily brown hands had
actually grasped Annie, Sarah.
After that they had seemed capa-
BILE enough.
Anyway, it had been gotten over,
somehow, and Abigail had been free
to cry a little, thinking of her room
at home in an orderly, shaded Mas
sachusetts village, with Mas laven-
der-scented linen on the smooth
bed, roses in green glass vase on
the bureau, and the lace curtains
blowing softly in and out of the
opened upstairs windows. Lilacs,
trembling grass, and Grandpa's
grave in the graveyard, and dough-
nuts and currant jelly-oh, dear!
AS soon as the baby and the
mother were well upon the road to
normal living, Philip and Abigail
had seriously discussed going home.
Then old Sonora Castellazo had
died, and her sons had wished to
dispose of the Santa Clara hacien-
da. Four hundred acres for nine
hundred dollars. Philip had con-
sidered it a wise investment, There |
was fruit-some fruit-there al |
ready, there were sheep and cattle |
included in the sale price. If figs |
and grapes would grow there, why
not other fruits-peaches and pears?
He would take his wife and
daughter back to New England, he
promised, on the first suitable ship;
it would be a long hard trip for a
woman with baby, but the journey
across the plains would be worse,
and there was no further hope Of
the Abby Baldwin.

porous pioneers Of the new world.
Philip was one of the men who had
shot dead the gold craze with an
epigram: "a flash in the pan"
Meanwhile Fanny Lucy had been
born.

half teasing, as he held his second
daughter in his arms. Abigail had
looked at him anxiously. But he
had not been really angry.
Only it had been rather trying
that a fine ship had left for South
America and eastern ports on the
very next day. She had delayed 50

than education. So Phil stopped
mis- schooling and went to work
at the Iron Works, and Gail, upon
being offered job in the, public
library, accepted it gratefully.
They scrambled along in the dis
reputable old house very happily {;
They were always laughing, sing
ing, going on picnics; they were
passionately devoted to each other,
and everyone was sure that they
would get along splendidly. Were
they not the last ott&he Lucky Law
rences?
Surest Of all was Gail, the resolute,
undaunted, optimistic mother and sis
ter, cook, nurse and lawmaker in
one. Life had been a story to Gail,
for a few years, and she had turned
a fresh page eagerly every day. She
and Edith were going to marry de-
lightful men, and Phil should marry,
too. And Sammy should live in
Edith's house and Ariel in Calls,
and Ariel should write wonderful
poetry. There would be plenty Of
money for everything, as there al
ways had been soon.
But somehow it had not worked
out that way. Gail had grown
little more sober, little thinner, as
the years had slipped by; they had
all grown shabbier. Even to her,
poverty began to seem a serious
matter.
Phil, to her concern, had never
quite seen the joke Of being poor
ant being orphaned. He had always
been brief, worried; and unrespon-
sive when Gail had tried to drag
him into her dreams. And Edith
hated poverty, too; it hurt her
pride. She had grown quieter, book
ish, Intellectual something Of a
recluse.
Sammy had done nothing except
slide through his shoes and get ID
minus" marks in his studies. And
Ariel was completely spoiled. They
had all hailed her as a poet before
she could fairly write. She did
write poetry, and that was enough
for Clippersville. Clippersville was
not critical. The Challenge pub
lished everything Ariel wrote. And
Ariel was discontented, proud, and
unmanageable.
y Altogether, the outlook was dis
couraging, and promised to grow
more so. There were moments when
even Gail could not quite believe in
the luck of the Lawrences.
Her twenty-third birthday found
her a quick-witted, eager, capable
girl, secretly little bit scared and
doubtful, but outwardly gay, ire
sponsible, and pleasant to look at
like all the Lawrences. Even the

he was called out. and the next
time I saw him was when I picked
him up in my glasses as he ran
toward right.
I watched his face. 1t was a
study. He was happy and he wasn't
happy. He was afraid and he wasn't
afraid. The set of the jaw told you
that. He passed first base and his
face was hidden from my view. The
boys in the bleacherS stood up and
yelled encouragement when he
reached right field.
Then he turned around. That
cheer had worked wonders. The
frightened look was gone, and in its
place was a schoolboyish grin.
Nine innings later, after No. had
made one of the Yankees two hits
and fielded perfectly, I went back
to the dressing room. No. 3 was
laughing now. No. was cussing a
little. No. was wise-cracking. and
No. was swinging a wet towel.
Didn't find it so bad, did you?'
I asked.
Hell. it was swell. he said. THE

a derby, said:

COSSACK WILL
MEET DEAN IN

All the big shots in the gruni

known as wrestling, American style

sports followers if they want to
see them, according to John A
Contos, internationally nown
sports promoter, who plans to open
the season here on Friday night OF
next week with Man Mountain
Dean," the man with more enc
mics than Hitler. who will tangle
with Matros Kirilenko, who once
rode for the Don CosSackS of the
Russian car.
Dean is a playful little fellow of
324 pounds who might have es-
capped from the House OF David.
for he sports a beard that is nearly
10 haystack size proportions. His
idea of good time is to dump
some fellow on the canvas and
then, taking a running jump, land
on his opponents back or front
with the idea of driving him
through the floor of the ring. This
practice has made him cordially
hated up and down the Pacific
coast by thousands of fans who
pay GOOD money in the hope of
seeing Dean turned into hambur-
ger. Thus far only two men have
turned the trick, Jimmy Londos,
the worlds champion, and Chief
Little Wolf. both of whom Will
also pay FL Centro a visit if the
fans decide they want wrestling.
Kirilenko must have ridden an
elephant when he was a CosSack for
he weighs 229 pounds, a pretty
good load for any self respecting
horse. Kirilenkos likes to tie knots
in his opponent and if he breaks
an arm or leg in the tying proc
ess his night is made happy. AS
Dean is too bulky to tie into knots,
the Cossack hopes to beat him into
jelly and then heave him not only
out of the ring but out of the are
