The wind in the darkness was icy, opened
the door of the car to find Norma hugging
herself in the gray fur coat. her feet stamping
the floor boards to keep warm. She looked
at me not in reproach but in despair. Don,
I'm t1eezing!" she said.
Sorry" slid in beside her, seeing by the
dashboard clock that Id kept her waiting
forty minutes. Il know it's hell of a way to
spend New Years Eve" said. But had
to see those two post-operative cases"
She didn't argue. She didn't complain. 1t
was clear she wasn't blaming me, but the
utter hopelessness in her manner was worse
than anything she might have said. 1t was
as if she'd struck something with which she
couldn't even try to cope. She sat silent while
got the car started When we had passed
the corner she said, Were too late now for
Charlie and Janet's buffet supper. Might as
we'll go straight on to the Forbes"

loved her, and hated to cause her distress.
1t had all been so easy when we'd met the
summer before on my vacation at the little
resort in Maine. Her family's house. silvered
by weather and the sea. had been blessed
haven of repose. We spent hours in her small
sailboat, talking, laughing. while the gulls
wheeled overhead.
1T WAS different somehow when we were
both back in New York This was my way
of life, and how could change it?
As we sped up Fourth Avenue l thought of
the Saturday. two weeks ago, when Id first
planned to ask her to marry me. That was
the Saturday when Daniel P. Reisner's daugh-
ter had been crushed in the Madison Avenue
smash-up. With the child hanging between
life and death, I'd had to operate at once; I'd
had to stay at her side late into the night
watching every change in respiration and
pulse. My date with Norma had gone up in
smoke; in fact, it had been almost midnight

When saw her later in the week, she was

in depressed mood. She murmured, What
a life a doctors wife must lead, never knowing
when she can count on her husband"
In sense it was true, of course, but she
made it sound dismal. At moment like that

New Years Eve would be cheerful and psy-
chologically right Now it was beginning to
seem a more hopeless time than ever.
Norma's own existence - she worked for
one of the major lecture bureaus - was eff
cient well ordered; she herself was the kind
of person who knew exactly where she was
going. How could expect her to accept the
endless uncertainties of physicians wife?

a critical case, is it,"
Moo. But feel it's important"
Until a few weeks ago Mike Wolcott had
been one of New York's brightest professional
football stars. But on Thanksgiving Day the
Bears defense had hit him like bulldozer,
and he'd gone down with a broken knee and
a leg almost wrenched out of his body. AS far
as athletics were concerned, Mike was through

glanced at Norma. Come up with me-
will you? It's sort of morale call. The
truth was didn't want her freezing in the car
She shrugged in a resigned way. What
ever you say"
A few minutes later, when rang the bell of
Mike Wolcott's apartment, the slender red
head, Emily Haft, opened the door. She
seemed surprised. Also, she was pale. and l
had the impression she had just been through
an ordeal But she welcomed Norma and me
quickly, and we went inside.
Happy New Year, Mike" | said.
Mike looked anything but happy. He sat
in deep chair the bad leg stretched out on
a hassock, the crutches propped against the
wall. He wore an old bathrobe over pajamas

NOTES FROM YOUR EXTENSION SERVICE

Field Day af Experiment Station
 Once each year during the late summer the farmers of the Val ley are invited to visit the Experi- mental Station farm. Featured on the days program are exhibits. tours of the fields and other dis plays At noon a pot-luck picnic will be served near the Station office. Director Irwin announced that field day will be held on Monday the 18th of August and he hopes to see a large turn out from the valley.
 A few of the interesting things to see will be the chemical weed ing tests in potatoes, forages and grains. The station scientists are favorably impressed with some of the experiments involving chemical wedding. Mir. Branton has some practical suggestions to offer concerning wall construction of buildings using native mater ials and insulation. Dairymen will get a chance to see what hap pens to brome grass under various fertilizer applications and to see some of the bulls and cross bred heifers of the Red Dane breed. The vegetable gardeners will see variety tests in lettuce and cab- bage as well as other experiments. Details of the days program will appear in the near future.

Volunteers Needed
 To Transport Crippled Children To Bus Depot

The Matanuska Valley Health Council appealed this week for volunteers to transport Valley crippled children to and from the Palmer Bus Depot when ortho- pedic clinics are scheduled on Wednesdays.
 Miss Marjorie Myron. Valley pubic health nurse reported that children sometimes miss needed treatments at the Anchorage cli- nic because there is no means of transporting them from their homes to the local bus depot. The children are met at the bus sta tion in Anchorage by volunteers of the Crippled Children's Assn, and are returned to the bus after they have attended the clinic.
 Anyone interested in volunteer ing for this service should con- tact Mrs. Jennie Perkins at the A.R.RC. office for more informa- ton.
