Mr.. Brocker drove in alongside the
bench. For the time being the happy
mood again passed from the children.
Ma very silently got out of the car
and pulled the baskets out after her.
She was a fairly stout woman and 1t
was somewhat difficult. Elsie. seeing
her tugging at one of the baskets.
came over to help her.
Its all right" Ma said, her eyes
down.
Don't worry. Ma" Elsie said
quietly.
They spread the tablecloth on the
bench. The food that was taken
from the baskets was very appetizing.
and the drive had made Mr.. Brocker
hungry. He didn't want the lunch
spoiled by everybody being downcast.
The trouble with these Sunday
drivers is they don't know how to take
| care of themselves once they get out
on the highway. The minute they
get out on the highway they go like
mad and don't use any sense. That
fellow had no business driving along
behind me like a madman. He saw
was going to turn off, but that
didn't make any difference. He just
kept on like madman'
Mr.. Brocker ate heartily. Ma busted
herself serving him and the children.
There was fried chicken. potato salad
homemade pickles, and homemade
apple pie. There was a large jug
filed with iced coffee. Large as the
lunch was, 1t quickly disappeared.
Didn't you have any chicken,
MAJ" Mr. Brocker asked.
Yes, I had a piece OF chicken. I
had wing I don't care much for
chicken anyway. I'd rather eat potato
salad" said Ma.
The bench was in the center of
the little cleared spacing. On three
sides were trees and bushes, on the
fourth was the highway. Mr.. Brocker
had eaten very much, 1t was warm,
and so he spread out some newspa-
pers and went to sleep. He was
sleeping almost in the center Of the
clearing.
The children were restless. They
wanted to play.
"Sh-you must be quiet or you'll
wake Pa Ma Brocker said.
The animation passed from the
faces of the children. They sat indo-
lently on the bench around Mrs.
Brocker and waited for Mr.. Brocker
to awaken and drive them home.
