white frill at the neck. She had
tied big apron over it, and she

a chair.
Andrea opened her mouth to
speak, to ask why the pretty little
domestic note, but she closed her
mouth at once, the odd feeling of
doubt and discomfort upon h r
again, and said she'd set the table.
Aren't you going to change,
Andy?"
For Jim?" Andrea wanted to
know. as if she'd said, For the
grocery MANI"
Beth shrugged and went to work
preparing dinner.
Everything was ready, the salad
in the wooden bowl, the soup and
potatoes in their pans, the oven
warmed, dishes heating when Jim
rang the bell. The flowers were
in low bowls on the table and
on the mantle above the blazing
hearth. The curtains had b I
drawn. the curtains that Jim had
seen her making. There were cock
tails chilling to frosty amber in
the glass shaker,
Beth cast quick, satisfied look
at what Jim would see, could eX-

went to the door.
There was NEWS written ]
over his handsome face.
Beth gave him both her hands
and he leaned forward and kissed
her. Some shyness made her turn
her face and she felt his lips on
her cheek.
"Yummie," he said, "You smell
nice. Hi, Andrea"
Andrea said, Hello" She put
down the paper she'd been reading
and regarded him with critical

A log fell. Ice 'clinked in the
shaker. The newspaper fell from
Andrea's lap. Beth's indrawn
breath made small, sibilant
sound. No one said anything.

from Andrea to Beth. us this all

Andrea was sitting on the sofa.

a slim arc in faded blue satin
Longing pajamas, When Beth got
the door open and dropped her
packages on a chair. She shook
her long hair back from her face
and said. "Ducky. did you get me
dress?"
Beth tossed her a large package
wrapped in green oiled paper. mo.
Andy, I didn't have time. Jim's
back and he's coming to dinner.
Do the flowers, will you? I've
million things to do in an hour.
My dress come back from h
cleaner? The gray one?"
Andrea shook her head and
wriggled her toes to dry them,
while she, opened the flowers.
"Whew!" she said. Must have
cost you a weeks lunch. Why the

Going into the kitchen. Beth said
casually, Il just felt in a mood

he can send over some logs, will

Andrea's big, dark eyes looked
puzzled as Beth wen by her.
Beth's eyes were shining and her
cheeks were pink and for a mo-

distinct feeling of discomfort set

at once.
She got vases down from a shelf

''In the past. the American chem

farming will increasingly produce
better varieties of grains and
fruits, improved farm machinery,
control of soil-borne diseases,
breeding of higher production ami
mails, and more efficient pest-con-
troll measures that will save grow
