BS ’..2 Jie HE 6) By MARGARET i . ii 2 t i} H | eff E f i i ed i Ee Hie 5pE t i i Marylin was too horrified and mis- erable for Eve to dq anything but =. li, there's nothing to be ea ue i Ht i : i ii A fh Hit; reiby frp g ; z oi aif Se BLE ae laugh about he: “period furniture” together. : ‘Eve—You're Beautiful’ "TOO restless to stand still, she went out and gathered more daffodils in the back garden, went up and down the walks to see what had come up since yesterday, and finally came to Anchor in the portico in the rear. Standing there on its high eight- eenth-century floor, she drew a long ‘done | breath of delight, looking down on Bow; it may rent still.’ Peter was more horrified than Eve. He even volunteered to go low-brow and do some book covers. “That ought to help. And Uncle Henry says Judge ought to have more wes. I'U buy him a bicycle and give you vest for extra rent,” said Peter generously. incle Henry and Peter and George held @ council of war with Eve that night in Unele Henry's end of the parlors. She felt one of her recurrent waves of guilt about concealing her intention of mafrying Denny as soon as be came back. But she mustn't talk @bout it, it wasn’t certain. And when they did marry. now that the country weather was getting more heavenly every day, Denny would probably just settle in here with her till fall; he: liked the Featherstones well enough. Se she said nothing, to their assur- enees that with the help of Peter's greenstuffs money and Uncle Henry's they could carry on well. “And with Denny's help,” she said ievelevantly to herself, “we could af- ford @ tennis club membership—"— _ Seeing her so brigh and @ushed and content, George eland and Heary De Remer smiled at each other, relieved. Or Anagrams N ARYLIN called to Peter lovingly +*8 from the fire in the front room, “Darling, here's darling Daddy Cleve- jand simply champing for his chess!” The older Cleveland, sitting near her with his usual air of having all the time in the world, smiled benign- ly at Marylin, stretched in her chair with an arm around her little boy. Peter smiled and crossed to get the chessmen. Judge got up and went into the back room to Uncle Henry, The group had settled into its accustomed evening routine. For routine it had come to be, a settied evening arrangement of un- derstood placid comfort. Both Cleve- lands seemed domestically inclined men. Mrs. Cleveland had tired of the country after a week of rain and was still obstinately at the Park avenue apartment. Her son was busy with his orchard and small fruits; her hus- band was @ fanatic golfer, and his fa- vorite club within driving distance of George's house. So he played chess with Peter the three weekend nights and George, drifting in with him, read the papers, or did mathematics about genetics on the round table where Uncle Henry and Judge car- fied on games of checkers or hunted for stations on Eve's little radio, Both father and son behaved in general as if this were where they most liked| jj, to be. : “At home my wife always retires after dinner unless we're doing some- thing social,” Mr. Cleveland said apologetically. “I don't know when George and I have had so much solid} comfort as sitting round here. Hope we aren't overdoing it.” Everybody assured them s that they were not. Today’s Birthdays aeeeeceseseoes Chaplin of Char Speneer Beverly Hills, Oal., actor, England, 48 years ago.

Time and Uncle Henry had done wonders with the tousled wilderness the Jennings had left behind. The long lawn stretched clipped and green to the tangle of fruit canes against the southern slope where the orchard climbed. Below them was the mat of darker green leaves that was the old strawberry bed. The high rosebushes, leafing out now, bordered the walk to the orchard; thick out- side them flowered the two long rib- bons of daffodils that had always been there. i Eve herself, standing in the May wind, was spring-like in the soft close-clinging green wool with a yel- low braid girdle, the high guimpe- collar of creamy silk. She had brushed her hair to the top of her head in a new fashion, with a daring plume of rings across the top, to see how Denny would like her that way. Peter, straying by on his way to get a de- tective magazine in the village for Marylin, said, “You look as if you we understudying the daffodils, you're beautiful,” in his pleas- ant impersonal artist fashion. ... “There are simply thousands of daffodils,” Eve said happily. “Isn't it incredible how persistent flowers are? They've just gone on and on bloom- ing maybe a hundred years, for all 1 know. And oh, Peter, my apple trees are in bud. 1 was down through the orchard yesterday, and they'll be in full bloom im practically a minute now. I'd forgotten that daffodils could come from anywhere but a basket on the corner, or the florist’s if you were extravagant.” “What I admire is the lawn,” said Peter proudly. “Mowed by my own hand.” “It was heavenly good of you. And better yet to do the parlor floor, In fact, what with Judge weeding the vegetable bed and you doing mowing and floor-waxing, the place looks like a gentleman's elegant countryseat, at least in spots.” “Well, as the neighboring nobility and gentry insisted on spending all their evenings here something had to be done about that floor, Marylin told me,” said Marylin’s obedient husband. “They're a comfort!” Eve said. “Think of their giving Adriano or- ders to lend Uncle Henry anything he needs in the way of garden tools. And finding that wallpaper in their attic for Judge’s bedroom.” “Personally I think he was all right in with us; always up quick as a flash when Marylin wanted anything in the night,” said Peter placidly. “But the: kid’s so proud of it it’s cute to see im. “He says he sleeps better,” Eve said reluctantly. “Oh, very likely,” said Peter. He grinned, dismissing the subject as un-' important.
