"All I really need you for is the
planning, the promotions" David
said. you'll work out the actual
interiors and gardens for our first
exhibitions, keep the two experts
in check and in harmony. The
service won't be opened until fall;
we'll do winter gardens and give
the customers the winter to learn
about us so that we can really go
to town by spring.
"There won't be any supervision
necessary now. In fact, you could
probably do a good part OF the
work at home and they could come
out to you. You're not looking Sc
fit. and I don't want to tire you.
He eyed her critically with that
searching look of his that seemed

There would be problems con-

maternity clothes that money could

he's really going to learn what
work is now. And Mr.. Everitt has
some plan afoot. I went to see
him yesterday and he was very
mysterious about it. But he doesn I
want to raise any hopes until It's
all settled. so he wouldn't tell me
what it is.
Het brought the tea tray oVer'
poured them both cups.
Make mine good and strong'
Kay said.
Tired? I think the country must
agree with you better than the
city," she said frankly. 'You look
a bit peaked
1--WE were up late last night, J"
Kay explained. She wasn't even
going to tell Het about the baby.
I'm expecting a friend of yours
any minute" Het said with a ner-
vous laugh. David is coming down
for dinner. He says this is the
only place he can get corned beef
hash cooked the way he likes it.
David, with one of the highest paid
chefs in New York She was try
ing hard to be offhand.
Maybe I'd better CO." Kay sug-
gested.
You'll do no such thing. He
wants to see you. He had some
business scheme in mind for you.
He asked me if I thought you'd
be interested and I didn't know
what to tell him. She looked
straight at Kay. You and Jake
hadn't made up then. l thought
you might want to get your hand
in again, so l left it all vague"
That was kind of you. I'll see
what it is. Maybe if it isn't too
demanding 1 might consider it.
Kay had spent the afternoon with
scratch paper, her check book and
a pencil. The results had been far
from gratifying.
Mr.. Everitt's check had been
generous, but so had their scale Of
living these past three weeks. If
She couldn't do houseWork she'd
have to earn the money to pay
someone who could. And the baby
in New York hospital was going
to be a terrific expense. She re-
fused to worry Jake about money
now. So an income would be very
handy.
And David's scheme was rea-
sonable. When the greetings were
over, he explained his plan.
I'VE built the greenhouse last
winter. l think l told you that" He
looked at her with raised eyebrows
and she nodded.
We have a good man running
1t; knows trees and plants from
A to z, but he purely plant
man. His ideas on landscape de-
sign are awful. He belongs to the
bed of red saliva or cannas
school,"
Kay laughed. She knew just
what he meant.
Il told him when he was hired
that he'd have to work with a
trained landscape architect and he
said that was all right, that angle
doesn't interest him"
Kay didn't say anything. She
still didn't see where she fitted in.
Il was going to let the land
scape architect slide until fall" he
continued, land 1 didn't KIN o "
whether you were coming back
But by luck I met just the mar
for the job. And he says it's now
or never, and truthfully, I cam
expect him to wait six months
So l was wondering if you'd like
to work one or two days week
just to launch the landscape archi
tect and the interior decorator
They'd probably be at each other;
throats if they're left alone"
do you think it would work out
not having someone around all thu
time?" She was interested; thi

doctor admonished Kay. you're

exercise except walking, and moi
too much of that; no housework
no riding long distances in a car
And you should see doctor every
two weeks. Have you and your
husband considered where you
want to have the child? Have you
any contacts with good local
doctor?'
Kay thought a minute. She hac
never even been to doctor out II
the country.
DO you do obstetrics?" she
asked him.
That's large part of my prac
tice, my dear"
'Then I'd like to have you, il
you will take me-" she announced
Are you prepared to come into
the city twice month? It's long
trip and probably will tire you,
he said kindly.
''It will be a nuisance, out
can't take any risks with this baby.
I want the best doctor, the best
hospital
"Very WE'LL" He asked his nurse
to give Kay a list of instructions.
And remember what I told you,
no exercise, no housework, not
much riding in automobiles. E"
Having baby wasn't all fun,
she could see. These were terrible
restrictions for her right now. 1t
was going to take some planning
to carry them out and still keep
Jake from knowing about the baby.
But he was having such whirl
now that she just couldn't spoil it.
Time enough to spring this respon-
sibility on him later. When they
were down in Florida he hadn't t
thought much about the concert
except to be relieved that it was
over and had been success. They
had seen no one, had no mail for
warded.
But when they had returned to
New York what it meant to be a
celebrity, even a minor one, hit
them with full force. There were
stacks of letters and telegrams, the
telephone rang constantly, they
were deluged with invitations from
both people they knew and people
they didn't know. Jake seemed tc
lap it up. The sun had restored
his pep and he was tireless.
He practiced several hours q
day, saw Downing almost daily
could stay up all hours of the night
and still wake up early and feeling
fresh. After a week of it Kay was
worn out. The only way she coule
keep going was by, resting all the
time Jake was out.
One afternoon she went down tt
Hets about o'clock.
Hello" Het said. Make your
self comfortable. I'll be right witt
you. I'm just making some tea"
THAT sounds good. Want SOM
help?"
THAT you, no. I'm abou
through" She chuckled. Il still
can't get used to the idea that 20,
can cook. Now when I see you al
dressed up in town clothes, looking
so chic, the idea of you in tn
country seems like a dream"
She emptied the hot water tina
had been warming the teapot
carefully measured the tea an
filled the pot again.
1T doesn't seem like a dream
to me. 1t seems very real an
important. We're going back te

BRUNSWICK SAILOR
HONORED IN DEATH
j. L. Williamson Of Ashe
PosthumousIy Cited

For extraordinary heroism as
gunner aboard the U.S.S.San
Francisco during action against
enemy Japanese forces in the Sol
onions Islands Area on November
II and 13, 1912. Courageously re-
fusing to abandon his gun in the
face Of an onrushing japanese tor
pedo plane, Williamson, with cool
determination and utter disregard
for his own personal safety, kept
blazing away until the hostile craft

dive and crashed on his station.
HIS grim perseverance and relent-
less devotion to duty in the face OF
certain death were in keeping with
the highest traditions of the United

gave up his life in the defense OF
his county,

Credit Union Idea Is To Make Employees Their O,On Bankers

Since the days of barter, a prob-' lem has faced men-the need for extra money in a crisis.
 The "Shylocks" and the Loan Sharks" have preyed upon work ing people, extorting from them exorbitant rates of interest for the use of ready cash.
 Finally, within the last century an answer has been found in Credit Unions throughout the world. A Credit Union Is a cor- poration operating under nation al and state banking laws. It is made up of members having a COMMON BOND, business, fra- ternal or social, and is based on the idea of members grouping their savings, from which only members may borrow at low in- tereSt rates,
 From the profits made, members receive dividends, equally pro- rated according to the amount of their savings.
 Your Credit Union offers a two-fold service. It encourages savings and it offers Loans when cash is nedeed.
 Through the cooperation of the Electric Boat Co.,, the payroll de- duction plan provides a most con- venient way of collecting at the sourSe, both in savings and on loans.
 Credit Unions have been in- structed to take a positive rather than a negative attitude with re- gard to Regulation w, which re- stricts loaning the full amount to purchase certain listed articles. Every consideration will be given to align the application with this regulation.
 Articles purchased on Install ment Payment Plan are known to have cost from ten to twenty per cent more than if the money had been borrowed through a Credit Union to pay Cash. Weekly or monthly trips to a creditor are also saved when cash transactions

are made. Time, gasoline and rubber saved In this way will help win the War.
 Credit Union statements will be ready for distribution shortly af- ter July 1St Notification of changes in address, misspelled names or changes in check num- bers will be appreciated. Please notify the Credit Union office in writing of any changes necessary.

 Boat builders turn to ball play CTS at noon time each day. The Hilltops started by spanking the Machine Shop, 40 to 12. Next came the Pipe Shop to teach the Hilltops a lesson by clipping them, 16 to IA.

And, behind some great pitching by Big Bill Dunclee, and slugging by Lefty Dyer and Rene Roy Brittle Ribs), the Hilltops managed to squash the hopes of the welders by score of IA to 8.

What Is YOUR Absenteeism And Just Not Feeling Good Costing YOU And The War Effort?

A few days ago we attended the food for um held at the New Yorker Hotel. It was representative gathering of many of Amer ica's prominent food producers and process SOrS.
 A great deal was said about the growing of crops and the probable shortage of food this fall because of unfavOrable weather conditions which have either ruined or set back all crops. One thing that should impress any thinking person was the talk by Mur- ray Lincoln, President, Coop League, U. s. A.. in which he said too many people paid too little attention to the food they ate and consequently were too late on production. He urged hot lunch at noon, with fervent vehemence and then he said {. and this is direct quote .. 'All sickness is directly traceable to improper feeding"
 Even though we are food minded we do not entirely agree that all ills and ailments are traceable to improper feeding. But, this IS fact, that tests and experiments made on groups of both people and animals; each group divided equally; one fed we'll bal anced diet and the other an improperly bal anced diet, the difference in results was amazing. So boiling Mr. LincOln's remark down, we offer this suggestion: If you are underfed and improperly nOurished by the wrong kind of diet (and you probably don't know what the matter is with yOuD you are below par and therefore more susceptible to illness than, if through we'll balanced diet you were in ''the pink" of condition. That's just common sense.
 It has been found that among the great ma- jOrity of war plants, the standard answer to absenteeism is: 'I just didn't feel good" If that is the real and true answer, then something should be done to find out why they "dOn't feel good" and also to find a way to sell them the idea of the seriousness of the task at hand and to set their small insignificant bellyaches aside until after that job is done.
 In these days when it is of the utmost im- pOrtance that all of us give our best, the least we can do to support the boys out on the subs in the air and in the fox holes, is to take care of our bodies with proper diet and rest. You do your job in the yards and, then come to us at meal times and we'll guarantee top grade food, we'll cooked and properly balanced to give you the greatest energy.
