BY FLORENCE LA GANKE, When ever a letter came to the Page home with a queer-looking stamp upon it Joan danced in glee, because she was sure it had been sent by her very own mother. Nancy's sister, Joan's mother, had been il for years. She had to stay in warm countries which were not suit- able for her little daughter. More than that, she was restless and traveled quite a bit so that Joan could not have attended school with any regularity This did not really bother Peter, Nancy nor Joan, for they had Wintered and Summered together for almost five years. Nancy really looked upon Joan as_her own child When Joan's mother's letters came they contained & gift or a promise of a glft to come. That may have been one reason why Joan looked forward so eagerly to their arrival. Nancy opened the letter and found a bank note inside. “Will you please No, suh, Ah don't like it,” muttered Unc’ Billy. “Ah wish that 1i'l rascal would hurry up. - Ah | bad no business to let him go in there.” And then the hunting call of Hooty the Great Horned Owl sounded nearer, much nearer.

Unc' Billy began {to wish that he had not yielded to | temptation, but had remained in the Green Forest, where he belonged. Once more Hooty hooted and this time he | must have been very near the edge of |the Green Forest. Unc' Billy dared wait no longer. He turned and scram- | bled up the wire fence of the henyard and down the other side. He ran across | the open space to the friendly old stone | wall. He wasn't a minute too soon. As | he dodged in among the bushes along the old wall a black shadow swept over the henyard. It was Hooty flying on silent wings.

Sha seems to have great possibilities if di- Irected in the right direction. The well spaced words of letters suggest inherent artistic talent. She probably likes to draw and, if well di- rected, may in time become a talented artist. If her ability is not outstand- ing, however, she should cultivate it {only as an engaging pastime, Undoubtedly she should fit herself for some sort of profession. By doing this she would have assurance of inde- pendence in later life. There are many interesting and unusual careers open to young women. As she seems the type who loves children and has great patience with them, teaching might prove a good choice. It holds particu- larly good opportunities if she will spe- clalize in some special field, perhaps drawing. It may be that she hds been much in the company of older people. Though this has undoubtedly aided her mental development, it has perhaps fnade her more than' ordinarily serious. _She |should ‘try to develop a more light- | heasted viewpoint.

ERE it is, the new bolero scart | that has just come to town in company of a rakish little hat of the same color and material The bolero scarf is very, very new, but when you come to look at it closely you may recognize it as noth- ing more nor less than a smart, up-to- date version of knitted scarf with tubu- lar ends that nice old ladies used to knit and wear under their coats to keep tHeir backs and arms warm, Perhaps you don’t remember them. The trick was t> knit a straight scarf wide enough to cover the small of the | back and long enough to reach from | wrist to wrist when the arms were ex- tended. Then each end was folded over and sewed up 10 or 12 inches, so that when the scar{ was placed across the back the wrists and arms might be slipped through the tubular ends.
