After lunch, another disheartening thing
happened. A man collided with her just as
she turned to look in bookstore window
He was quite distinguished looking older
man. The bottle of face lotion was sent flying
from her hands to shatter on the sidewalk
and she herself was staggered in way that
would have been funny if it hadn't hurt The
man steadied her, touched his hat, and
walked off abruptly, leaving the valiant, for
giving smile she had summoned to her face
to dry on her lips. He hadn't even looked at
her! It was just as if he had bumped into
another man, and not very progressing
one at that.

breath; and then she marched home, queer
kind of humiliation burning her cheeks.
AS SHE was dressing for dinner, Jim let
himself into the apartment. He came into
the bedroom holding deep, square box and
looking immensely pleased with himself. 1--WE

Hazel smiled in gentle tolerance True

But will he stay ensnared?"

distance, baby" she said drily. But don't
get any closer"
She started her day in high gear, as if by
hurrying she could outrun the discomfort of
her anxiety. There was letter to Jack, her
seventeen-year-old son, to be written. He
was at the Cape, running his Uncle Ty's
schooner for him and enjoying his first love-
affair. There was package of clothes to be
wrapped for mailing to France "a family
Jim had befriended during the war. Hazel
Trefts, Myra's oldest and best friend phoned,
wanting Myra to meet her at one for lunch.
BY ELEVEN the aging Mrs. Newcomb was
in saffron-walled booth of the nearby
beauty shop getting facial. This, too, was
something new for her, and she hated her
sudden dependence on these discreet but
overbearing women. But this was Science,
come to save her. Magic in jar of cream,
rejuvenation in the march of skillful fingers
across her cheeks.
The whole genteel ritual struck her as
somehow ridiculous; but she sat there duti-
fully, laughing within herself yet at the same
time feeling tragic sense of decline and not
liking her twinges of self-pity one little bit.
At lunch, Hazel pointed across the table at
the small package Myra was holding.
What have you got there?" she asked,

lust some face lotion. Why?"
well, you're clutching it so possessively.
No one will steal it, darling, if you put it

Myra felt herself flushing. ITO lose that,
would be to lose all. The beauty operator
said it would do wonders for me. Look at

getting old"
Aren't we all?" Hazel was obviously not
in a mood to take anything seriously. Its

SHORT SNORT Ivl stretched in the bed

and yawned, not deli
cately but with honest gusto. She was a
smartly angular blonde woman, long-limbed
and gracefully rangy, with soft humorous
mouth and practical look in her gray eyes.
The sunlight in the room looked tenish, and
her first emotion of the day was feeling of
guilt; Jim, the old darling, had let her sleep
again, getting his own breakfast and going
forth to plan the architectural future of a
of encouragement. The Shape of Things to
Come
The phrase struck vaguely disturbing
note in her sleepy mind, and she sat up. try
ing to place her apprehension. The Fear
swept down on her then, jumping into her
monster taking up its position for the day.
Suddenly, unsparingly. she had found out
two weeks ago that she was getting old
1t had happened at the Trefts' anniversary
party. She had smiled at some unknown
young man, wanting to make him feel more
comfortable, and he had given her that
''go-away-granny look. Just as if she had
been trying to filrt with him! AT your age,
his eyes had said; and ever since then she'd
been deviled with the not too admirable urge
to peek in mirror every time she passed one.
The peeking had turned up unpleasant truths
about her face
She got out of bed, noticing her figure in
its pale lavender nightdress as she passed the
mirrored back of the closet door. Thank
God for small blessings" she said. She
yawned again. ruffling her shoulder-length
blonde hair with her fingers. You're old,
she told herself "A great big forty-two. It's
too bad" Leaning down, she surveyed her
face in the vanity mirror. Annoyed that she
was peering again, she stuck out her tongue
at her reflection and began to dress.
When she was clothed in a trim black suit,
she studied herself in the full-length mirror
across the room. You're all right from

VA Stands by Plans
For 500 Bed Hospital

The Veterans Administration is
standing by its plan to build new

tiops subcommittee.
Hearing testimony made public

Last week, the Arlington County
Board disclosed it had received a
letter from Senator Robertson,
Democrat, of Virginia indicating
VA "has by no means Abandoned
It's plans to build veterans hos
pital there -
No Plans For Tract.
But there was this questioning
at the appropriation hearing:
Mr.. Andrews: You have no
plans for the use of that land?
Gen. Gray: No, sir.
Mr.. Andrews: Do you plan to
retain it, or what?
Gen. Gray: No, sir; we have a
plan for the location of a hos
pital: and if that goes through,
that particular piece of property
will be declared surplus. and it is
my understanding that some other
agencies of the Government have
q justifiable use for it.
Mr.. Andrews: But you do not
think it is suitable for your hos
pital program?
Gen. Gray: That is right.
Contingent on Agreement.
VA officials pointed out to the
committee that the hospital pro-
gram was changed to include pro-
vision for acquisition of hospital
site on the Soldiers Home Grounds.
A cost limit of 100000 was speci-
fed.
It was emphasized that the plan
is contingent upon completion OF
an agreement between the Soldiers
Home and the Veterans Admins
tration."

Lowest Of Record

Montana's 1850 lamb crop is
the lowest on record, according
to the federal bureau of ag-
ricultural economics. The re-
port stated that 100000 lambs
compared with 1,204,000 last
year-were saved from this
years crop because of a severe
winter, late spring and reduc-
ton in number of breeding
ewes. The total is nearly II per
cent less than in 1949 and only
about one-half the 1939-48 av-
. erage of 1895, 000.
BAE added: Lambs saved for
every 100 breeding ewes aver
aged 81, compared with "a in
1949 and "a for the 10-year av-
erage. Montana fell from third
to fourth place in size of the
