CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

j
It was Sunday. the first IN NO.
vember. and the church bells were
ringing and echoing all through
the frosty air above the great city
of Washington, which lies like a
fat bowl between two rolling hills,
split by a band of silver that is
the Potomac.
"Its the first sign of winter this
year" Marion Blake said, coming
10 the door of her bedroom where
Andy and Beth were working or,
more correctly. Beth was work
ing and Andrea was dreaming. 1T
never gets really cold here, but
still Bert says it can't compare
with California.
California, pooh!' Andrea ejac-
ulated when Marion had gone back
t. the kitchen from whence came
aromatic odors. Hawaii has it

fornia.'

moving pins from the hem OF a
checked taffeta skirt that was six
yards wide. She's a Washington

you've got to be with Jim"
With Jim and me, home will

vcu, Bethie. Jim hasn't even a
fifth cousin living. We're just a
couple of orphans"
Trying to make me feel sorry
for YOU? Come away from that
window and let me try this skirt
on you
Andrea ducked her dark head as
Beth slipped the skirt over it. Its
folds fell to the floor in a wide
sweep. I can wear it with a red
silk jersey blouse, or tailored
white crepe, or something very
transparent in black" she said
looking at herself in the long door
mirror. Il expect we shall dress
for dinner a lot out there"
This will make three dinner
dresses" Beth said, kneeling to
put pins in the hem again. YOU'RE
pretty well fixed"
Speaking of fixing" Vernon had
come to the bedroom door, Il got
a lock for thai trunk of yours,
Andrea. I can fix it up so that
it will last until you get off the
