She was sitting on the edge of the mohair
sofa in the Stoeffers' parlor, quietly, but as
always, looking as if she were about to scurry
away. She was small and quick, and her hair
was yellow as dandelion; all of which
helped even more to make people around
Carter County smile when they looked at her,
reminding them of an Easter chicken. She
was watching the Stoeffers get ready to make
a record on their awesome new radlo-phono-
graph machine - Dad and Ma Stoeffer and
Uncle Ed and Aunt Sarah and young Sam.
1t was Uncle Ed who had stopped his wagon
in front of Mary Beth's house yesterday and
called out: Better come over tomorrow
night, Mary Beth. That machine we got from
the catalog makes records, and we're going
to talk on one and send it to Jim for his BIRTH
day at camp, long as he can't get home"
So, of course, they must want her to talk
too Yet those Stoeffers were so good on
hiding their feelings; she had never known
Just how they thought about their jim want
ing to marry little Mary Beth Boomer when
the war was over.
She wished she had exclaimed more over
the machine now, and had said more about
how fine it was that the bumper crop had
let them buy it. But really all she could think
of ever since Uncle Ed Stoeffer had stopped,
was talking to jim on the record, and feeling
near him that way,
She pressed her trembling hands together
She was praving to herself. That record meant
more than any letter she could write. 1t meant
everything She simply had to talk to him.
Ma STOEFFER was starting the record OFT
now, holding the funny little telephone thing
up to her scanned but somehow beautiful lace,
and looking embarrassed. But her voice was
pretty calm, considering everything. Maybe
she lust forgot about the machine and thought
about tall straight young jim, who'd gone
away eight long months ago and hadn't been
able to get back yet
Were all here thinking about you, Jim,'
she said. Were pretending you're right here
and we're talking to you face to face. we
miss YOU lot, but we know you've got to do
what you're doing, and you or any OF US
wouldn't have it any other way,
She said little more, asking HIM II there
was ANYTHING they could send him; then she
handed the telephone thing to Dad Stoefter
Marv Beth felt surge of relief that Ma
hadn't talked very long and used up too much
of the record. Right afterward she flushed
guilty for being 50 selfish and smoothed her
print dress nervously
Dad Stoeffer talked about the farm and
he didn't say much either. But ne was 50
slow, and kept breaking off 50 often to grin
self-consciously at the Others, that Mary
Beth had to hold her hands clasped for fear
she'd start biting her nails. Aunt Sarah talked
after that, and her voice was so fast and pre-
else that Mary Beth felt easier
But they had to turn the record over in the
middle of Aunt Sarahs talk, and Mary Beth
suddenly realized what small record 1t was
She found herself praying again. Just jew
little words. Just so he'll krow I'm ~a't'"g'
and ,eiH feel the same and won't look 5o' an
other girl. Whatever I say he'H KNOW H. one

be afraid of your letters. Only keep the melody
on your lips for the loving things you'll have
to say some day again"
And now, if Uncle Ed would hurry. there
would be time to let her voice 60 out to him.
So he wouldn't have to wait, 50 he would know
it was still the same. l lore you, Jim; that was
all she need say. That would tell him OF her
waiting by the mailbox, of wandering alone
by the river and dreaming there on the fallen
trunk where they had said goodby; of the
long hours at night sewing on the towels and
linens And she would say it, clear and
full and ringing, even if Jim's family was all
about her. Even if she didn't know if they
wanted her for their Jim, having never said
anything about it to her
UNCLE ED talked 50 loud that they had to
interrupt him often to tell him to be quieter.
When he was through, the record was very
near it's end. When young Sam started talking
they didn't tell him to hurry. Maybe they
didn't care if Mary Beth talked. Maybe they
didn't even want her to, after all. But she
got ready anyway moistening her lips to
make them look soft and shining red the way
Jim liked them: smoothing down her dress
again and putting stray curl back in place.
Were getting aviation stuff at school now,
Jim," young Sam said enthusiastically. IN
bet if you don't hurry up and win the war,
I'll bet I'll be flying in it. guess Ill fly any
way sure like it. Jim. But if l couldn't fly.
guess I'd like shooting the big guns like you
do. wish you could get me some real souve-
Mrs, jim"
Mary Beth pressed her hands to her mouth
to keep from crying out. Why didn't he hurry?
Four words. l lore you, Jim. That was all
she wanted to say Couldn't they let her have
those? They who had had so much of him all
their lives?
Pm getting some good grades, too. Jim.
Why just yesterday - Oh, shoot" Sam
thrust out his lower lip and snapped off the
machine Darn records finished"
well, you had good say" Ma said.
Dad Stoeffer took the record off. How'd
you like that, Mary Beth? Pretty nice pres
ent, hmm? We got better one for him,
but I'll bet he likes this next best at that"
Mary Beth felt her heart breaking right in
two. What would he think now when he
heard every voice but hers? What would he
do when pretty girl smiled at him, so hand
some in his uniform Suddenly she hated the
record. She could have taken it in her hands
and broken it into bits and trampled them
under her little heels. But she only said.
That's nice present for Jim; then got up
and went quietly to the door.
MARY Beth" Ma Stoeffer said. don't 60
without this" She was holding the record
out, and Mary Beth stopped and stared at it.
Its up to you to take it to him, Mary
Beth" Dad Stoeffer said. Guess we forgot
to tell you, but that's the other present -
the best one We decided to use some of that
crop money to send Jim's girl out to see him.
So you might as well take the record along;
he. might get around to playing it after you've
left him.
Mary Beth's throat was 50 full it almost

The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1942-10-22
Glasgow Farmer Is Granted
Patent for Waxing Machine

operated, warranted to plant onion
or cabbage sets. On the strength of
claims, he bought a whole truckload
of onion sets in Texas. But the
planter didn't work right. Rows
were crooked and the motion was
erratic when it was drawn by horses.
He Makes 1t Work
The younger Slowing tinkered
with it. He abandoned the idea of
horsepower and attached a motor.
He then experimental, using willow
shoots for plants. He soon had it
working and in ten hours planted
go 1000 onion sets. -
Another achievement is a home
made combination, seeder, cultivator
and onion litter. A motor was bought
for it, but all the other parts were
converted from discarded junk on
the farm. 1t still is in operation.
Truck farming, especially these
days when labor is scarce, doesn't
allow much time to draw plans or
build machinery. But Slowing is
now thinking seriously about devils
ing an improved sugarbeet litter and
1t would be something to be
welcomed by many farmers in this
section.
