When Alice married Thurwald,

of bearing children and forgetting

enormous amount of weight. Her
Intentions of going OH diet came
to nought so she consoled herself
with this philosophy: when she went

Alice possessed remarkable sense
OF humor and her marriage to the
kind serious Norwegian strained this
humor, but it was never drowned.
Thorwald was teacher, we'd to

fervor. The demands of his profess
sion and his weakness GOr the pur-
chase of books conflicted with the
small purse allowed teachers. For
some, this trying situation would,
nave resulted in naeging wife but
Alice managed to find the lighter
side. Alice was determined that her
children should have laughter ami
saicty, despite the stole Norwegian
father; she reared them well and
few were the times they vcered from
her guidance. Such remarks as this

rich that you wouldn't even like ice
