BY ALICE MARIE DODGE =. "A y

as If she had started to argue with
him. Although eight years his iu-
Nor, there were times when she
felt older. more mature than he.
Leila leaped into the conversa-
ton.
II never had any college educa-
ton" she snapped, sand I'm get
ting byI"
Media had long suspected that
her sister -in-laW was Jealous of
her school advantages. She di-
vined now that Leila was deriv-
ing a secret Joy over the fact
that those advantages had been
snatched away.
AS she watched Stan carrying
her bags into the house Media was
struck with the feeling that the
most desirable phase of her exis-
tence was packed away in those
bags with her school things. Tears
started to her eyes, but she mus
tered a smile to her lips and went
to greet her mother.
In her youth Mrs. Barrie had
been vivacious and attractive.
Now she was pale and thin. but
her dark eyes and black hair gave
her face a certain ethereal beauty.
I'm sorry, dear. that you had to
come home, she said in low,
soft voice as Media bent to kiss
her.
HomelHer young eyes wretched,
Media looked around at the stained
plaster walls of the spacious din
ing room. A wood fire was smol-
dering in a small stove, seeming
the room with smoke.
Smells of dinner drifted in from
the kitchen. The odor of coffee, hot
biscuits and stew redolent with
onions and carrots.
You're A Big Help
MEDIA compared this home to
! the handsome house in which
Reck lived What would he and his
mother think of this old pile. she
wondered. It creaked in the joints
when she walked across the floor
on her way to her room. She
turned quickly and faced her
mother.
"How old is this place, Mother?"
sOver 100 years" Mrs. Barrie
replied vaguely.
More like 200" Leila called
from the kitchen.
Think how lucky you are to
have such an antique in the fam
ily," chimed III Uncle Ham who
entered the dining room at that
moment.
Not to mention all the discon-
forts of home that go with it!'
Leila retorted and added, Get
ready for dinner. It's been delayed
long enough"
I'm sorry | was late, but L."
Media began and stopped. The en-
barrassment Mrs. Reckless's yelled
remarks had caused still smarted
in her memory and she felt a dis
taste about speaking of her visit
to Las Roses.
Her abrupt pause went unno-
ticed, for at that moment Leila
came in with a steaming dish of
stew. At the end Of the meal Leila
relaxed in her chair and said. Il
cooked dinner, so you can get
breakfast. Media
a spark fiickered in the depths
of Medals dark eyes.
Il expect to do my share she
said sharply.
Yeh-you're a big help"
You know that I've never
done housework!" Media retorted.
