become less and less polite. BY every frugal
means she knew, she tried to forestall the
inevitable And it must be said in common
justice of Fiddler that he pitched in and
helped While Kezia cleaned the house and
made beds, he stocked the furnace and emp
tied the ashcans. When spring came and Mrs.
Curran next door was able to hire man by
the day to clean up her yard, it was Fiddler
who did the same job for Kezia. He worked
with keen sense of rivalry. aware of Mrs
Curran's beligerent attitude toward him
and artists in general And he finished day
ahead of Mrs. Curran's man.
Such small victories, however. while good
for the soul, buy neither clothes nor food
One day young Fiddler knocked at Kezia's
door, neat and shabby in dark blue suit
which Kezia had never seen before. He looked
at her sheepishly. I'm going away. It's about
time, don't you think?" he said.
Kezia invited him in. She'd grown fond
of the young man. even if he didn't pay his
bills. "You don't have to 60" she said. Il
mean - you've helped me around the house
and all that wouldn't ask you to 60
FIDDLER shook his head sadly mo, I'm just
a burden to you, Mrs. Prokash; and anyway,
l haven't had a decent meal in 50 long l
sometimes wonder whether it's worth it."
Then he added quickly, Il don't mean my
work, you understand. III always be proud
of the work did here. It's my Prokash Period.
I've dedicated it all to you
Kezia was touched by this unexpected re-
ward. Thank you, Mr.. Fiddler she said
Fiddler looked suddenly unhappy. I'm
now entering new period, he said
What's that?" Kezia asked.
MY uncle" said Fiddler moodily, manu-
factures wash cloths and bath mats. I'm 60
ing to work for him. He always wanted me-"
well now, those are nice useful things to
make she said Everybody likes to take
bath, and maybe you'll be able to do some
of your other work on the side"
II will!' Fiddler said passionately. "And
you keep reading the newspapers! When you
see my name in the headlines of the art page,
that's the time for you to sell these!
There" said Kezia sympathetically, "I1l

-Four months passed, and out of the four
the landlady scraped together only one pay
ment on the house When the fifth payment
fell due and she was twenty dollars short on
it, a man from the bank came around
He was very nice about it. He explained
that his duty was painful one, but business
was business. kezia was given ten days to
move her furniture and herself elsewhere.
Mrs. Curran came to call. She found Kezia
in her basement rooms counting linen.
"Ah, Mrs. Prokash," she said, arranging
her face in what she imagined to be an ex-
preston of deep concern, II just happened
to hear you were leaving the neighborhood
It's crying shame said - and her in her
house less than year.
Come in, Mrs. Curran. I'd offer you a
cup of tea, only packed the cups"
