would have gone to Vermont in a
house dress before she'd borrow q
stitch. after what Eric was doing.
Her wardrobe was slim. She
found herself thinking Of clothes.
wishing she had some pretty new
ones for the first time in year or
more, and it never occurred to her
to ask herself why, except that this
was the first real holiday they'd
ever planned.
She worked miracles with what
she had. There was still the blue
fox Jacket and her old light green
tweed suit. She shortened the
skirt. cut the long coat down to
hip length and made a pert little
hat with the remnant. There wasn't
much she could do with her old
dresses, but she freshened them
with crisp touches OF lingerie. and
fashioned a skating costume out OF
an old voluminous evening cape Of
scarlet velvet. The fur was worn.
but she salvaged enough to make
toque and a tiny collar.
Last Of all. she sponged and
pressed tbs last OF her hostess

color, a tone that set off the lights
in her hair. and it was a clinging
thing with good lines. II would be
nice to wear in the evenings.

she wore any more.
Her father. in response to a wire,
sent her her old shoe skates. And
the day before they were to drive
to Vermont, there was a package
from a Fifth avenue shop that ar
rived.
1t was from Louise, and II con-
tanned a woolly angora sweater, a
pair of warm wooden sox. a pair of
bunny mittens and a light little
jacket made of warm airplane
cloth.

breaths of the crisp air. She was
impatient of the stop for lunch at

"Lynbrook!" she cried at last,
reading the name on a sign post.

And then, almost before she real
lied it, they had turned into a
gravel drive and there was a big,
rambling house spread out before
them. Light streamed from the

LOUISE AND Toby and Halle
and Eric talked eXcitedly all that
evening about the new plans the
Adamses must make. But Hallie's
enthusiasm for plans was forced
when they got beyond the week
that was coming in Vermont. She
knew that Eric was going to bor-
row from Toby to pay their ex-
penses to and from East Lynbrook
and that she would have to see that
the borrowed money was repaid
from a salary that would mean
slim going in New York. but she
was too happy TO worry about II. A
new kind of serenity possessed her.

what II would mean to have chill

ness Of the thought at once. They
couldn't have children until they
had future with some sort of Sc
curity.
Perhaps when they came back to
New York she could get a job.
Sitting there in Toby's big chair
with her feet tucked under her and
talk swirling about her. she began

during the short intervals when the
bird is sailing.
Always scanning the sea below,
the BOBBY will plunge headlong into
the water when a school of por-
poises has been sighted. AS the
hobbies have communal habits at
all times with the exception of the
time when the babies are tiny, a
flock of boobies descending into
a school of porpoises is a noisy and
thrilling sight.
In localities where boobies are
numerous, so are sea turtles. There
have been many interesting ac-
counts written of the strange hab-
its of these birds, which seem to
enjoy standing on the backs of the
sea turtles Evidently the sea tur-
ties do not mind the liberties taken
and though the BOBBY is a rather
heavy bird there is no mention that
the turtle objects to his guest.
During most of their lives boobies
are rather silent. When annoyed
and especially during maternity
days screams and harsh notes are
heard from the parents toward
their neighbors
Watching a BOBBY drop 40 feet
into the water below, sending up a
handsome spray as the fisherman
goes under and out Of sight is some
thing to remember. No other bird
has quite such an accomplishment.
The pouch is large enough to take
care of sizable fish entire! So it
pays the BOBBY to dive.

BY LILLIAN cox ATHEY.

To win the BOBBY prize in game
is always a joke. Why this bird
should be called a BOBBY has never
been adequately explained. 1t Is
a rather intelligent bird, having but
one strange little quirk in its make
up. When it has selected a nest
ing mate, any one who but a few
days before was a bosom friend
now is a rank outsider and treated
as such. AS a rule, one nursery
will be 6 to feet from the next,
and this territory must not be in
vaded. or else
The red-footed BOBBY has been
seen on rare occasions in Florida.
But its breeding grounds are some
of the islands of the West Indies
and off the coasts of British Hon.
duras and Venezuela.
The mature birds have wing
quills which are grayish, appear
ing frosty. The bird is clothed in
white, the face blue, pouch slate
colored and the feet red. 1t is a
beautiful color combination and the
BOBBY is festive looking bird.
The nest built by the mother is
rather crude affair composed of
grass and seaWeedS. There are uSu-
ally twins, though sometimes but
one chalky- white egg is laid.
At birth the baby is nude and
ugly. 1t is soon given an almost
uniform brown doWny coat, and
later the plumage on the head, neck
and underparts is white The nup-
