TIME TO DO
NOTHING
LUCIA MALLORY

"Wouldn's you like to stay at the Ii
brary for a little while, Mariana ?"
| inquired Of the solemn-faced little
girl who stood at my desk in the
children's room Of the city library.
She was returning some travel books
she had been using for reference at
school, without stopping for even a
glance at the shelves of fiction or the
reading tables with their magazines
and pictures. "We have new big
copy of Heidi with some illustrations
| know you'd enjoy"
ooh, I'd like to stay, Miss Mallory"
the little girl answered hurriedly, 81

But have go to go on for my violin
lesson at half past four"
81 thought that you were taking
piano lessons from Mrs. Loring,
Marianna."
ooh, yes, but I'm learning to play
the violin, too"
"Maybe you can come in tomorrow
evening and see the new books"
suggested.

evening. Thursday evening | go to

counting off the days on her fingers
Friday evening | have swimming at

"Well, you are busy girl, Mari
anna" | answered, longing to erase
the lines Of strain from the small
face. "The library is open for whole
long day on Saturday. Perhaps you
can visit us then"
ooh, Miss Mallory, | have to prac-
tice on Saturday and do my work at
home. But I'll try to find time tc

dered how any mother could give a
book-loving child so many lessons and
schedule her time so rigidly that she
could never come to the library and
browse through the books at will

program represents Mrs. Morse's am
bition to give Mariana an opportu-
nifty for development along many
lines knowing the family's financial
circumstances, | suspect that the less

many of the mothers own comforts
and pleasures.
Mariana will probably become pro,
ficient in music. She will be able tC
give reading acceptably and perhaps
acquire grace and poise through the
dancing lessons, but why spend sc
much time all at once? What Of heI
mental and physical health? So many

Mortgages Are Liquiddted
By Many Home Owners

People with modest incomes who
have been employed since the deprcs-
sion which began in 1929 have taken
advantage of their steady earnings
to buy homes on the installmcnt plan
and pay for them. This is the con-
clusion reached by the United Savings
and Loan League, which estimated
that at least 2lOCOO such homes will
be cleared Of debt in the United States
this year, probably the largest num-
Der in any one year Of cur history.

Eileen. She grimly remembered her
great-grandfather. the sea captain, and
wondered If after all she might not
have inherited some traits from him
But she concealed her feelings under
timid. docile mask. She took little
walks about the room, leaning heavily
on Eileen's arm. But. when the girl
was safely downstairs, she walked
strongly up and down, her rage never
lessening. In fact it so increased that
she knew she could no longer conceal
it. One night she could not sleep for
it. She lay tossing on the bed think

vacation and was leaving a stranger
to take his place. She would have
her beloved house, her cherished be-
longings, to herself, to get acquainted
with all over again, to put in even
better order than before with Eileen's
help.
Eileen came into the room carrying
glass Of milk and some biscuits on
small tray. Beyond the edge of the
snow white dolly the shining silver rim
of the tray was visible. Eileen smiled
down at Miss Peel, the reassuring, al
most maternal smile that had been
the invalid's support in the long
months of confinement. How young
she was, to have such an old head on
her shoulders! 1t scarcely seemed right.
She had had no childhood, the eldest
OF nine, in an Irish hamlet. They
had come to America seven years ago
and Eileen was certainly Americanized
in dress and speech and that air of
happy assurance that was the right
of youth. So Miss Peel thought, as
she looked up into the smiling face.
Thank you, Eileen" she murmured.

Ertell didn't bother 10 tell what
happened after his players had
freed themselves of their tense
