LEAP BEFORE YOU LOOK YESTERDAY: Attractive Tomt Toland is the rebel of the re- spectable Toland family. Her Uncle Timothy, who was also a rebel, has died and Allen Bar- tell, a young lawyer, is about to read the will. Chapter Two A Million Frogs Atte BARTELL gave one look at Tomi’s flamingo dress, then focused his attention on the Jong legal document in his hand. Tomi wondered if he usually breathed as heavily. It couldn’t be the man was laughing at her again. It seemed to her that he was having difficulty with his facial muscles. They seemed in- clined to twitch. He started read- ing and Tomi found she was hav- ing a similar difficulty with her own facial muscles. The will was a masterpiece of satire. Each bequest, from the dozen pairs of silk stockings to Creat-aunt Hannah to the turnip watch, which didn’t run, to Major Toland, was pointed. These_be- quests were something more. Each had a stated value. They estab- lished Timothy’s remembrance of each and acted as a curtailment of a will contest. Looking at the dismayed faces about her, Tomi reflected that this was the first time she had not been made the butt of whatever joke was in the air. Sle regretted she had not made friends with Timothy. She hadn’t known a To- land was capable of under-surface discernment. “And to my great-niece, Tomi Toland—” Tomi jerked upright in protest. She had done nothing to deserve inclusion in this ghoulish joke. “—I do hereby bequeath the bulk of my estate, liquidated and fel in the following, to wt Red lips parted, Tomi leaned forward and listened. “Farm, all buildings and implements, ten- room house and furnishings as listed, herds—last count one mil- lion head—” Herds! Tomi nearly bounced on the prim sofa where she sat| hedged in between the Major ani Aunt Augusta. Herds! For one heavenly mo ment she visualized herself in ten-gallon hat, riding the plains. Oh, blessed Uncle Timothy. She’d better pinch herself, In a moment Molly, the cook, would be shak- ing her and telling her she’d be| late at the office. No, that shaking was the Major, Betting up breath for a_ pro- nouncement. In a moment he'd burst forth. There it came. “Farm?” he bellowed. “No farm was ever mentioned to me. What | does it grow?” Allen Bartell looked up, his eyes meeting Tomi’s, “Frogs,” he answered. “F - frogs?” faintly. “Frogs,” confirmed Bartell, and Tomi had a ludicrous vision of lit- tle green frogs growing in long green rows, and herself standing over them with a watering can. “But the herds,” prompted Aus- tin Toland, the legal light of the questioned Tomi, By Peggy O’More family. “You specifically men- tioned herds.” “Frogs,” elucidated Bartell. Tomi closed her eyes. This was a colossal joke. Imagine inheriting a million frogs! What would any- one want of even one frog? “What is the value of this perty?” demanded Great-aunt lannah. “The value of the physi property, land, house, buildin, and implements, is, roughly, teen thousand dollars, The value of the commercial frog farm must naturally vary from month to month.” “And why must it vary?” chal- lenged Hannah. artell’s eyes twinkled, al- pire fa his voice expressed noth- ing but serious consideration of her question. ‘Not Interested In Legs’ ‘HE value must depend upon the marketable legs, frogs’ legs, Miss Toland. In the winter months these would drop to zero. In the spring your herds would resent you with about five mil- lion eggs, but the mortality rate on eggs is heavy. Allowing one- fifth of these to reach the tadpole stage, you have again the mortal- 7 rate on tadpoles. How many of these will sprout legs before some hatural enemy dines on them, sans legs, is questionable, After that, the market value of those left is a potential value. It takes three years for a frog to grow an edible leg.” Great-aunt Hannah’s face was stiff with dignity. “Young man, I am not interested in legs, frogs or any other kind. Give me the ap- proximate value of the entire es- tate.” Tomi’s eyes were bright with interest. Was she such a child of the pavements that she had thought frogs’ legs descended onto platters out of thin air? This in- heritance was beginning to look like something, after all. Bartell seemed reluctant to comply; then with a strange glance at Tomi, he said, “According to the inheritance tax, the estate is valued at thirty thousand dollars.” “Sell it immediately!” ordered the matriarch. Tomi smiled. That was an ex- cellent idea. Sell it. She could use hirty thousand dollars, and good- ness only knew she couldn’t use thirty thousand frogs, French fried or on the hoof. Sne’d keep fifteen thousand for herself and divide the rest of it amongst the family. “I'm sorry,” Bartell was saying, and he didn’t look sorry. “There is a stipulation that Miss Toland must take immediate possession of the farm and maintain it at its present financial status for five years before it becomes hers to dispose of as she desires.” There was a moment of tense silence, thén May Toland-Carring- ton purred across to Tomi. “Never you mind, dearie. We'll help you run the place. I'll take eats of the house and Carrington will run the farm.” Other voices evinced a similar intent, nearly drowning Bartell’s protest. It seemed he was again sorry. “But under the terms of the will, Miss Toland can accept neither personal nor financial aid from me Sept Nor can she, during probationary entertain any relative on the prety: more than es Ps Gad more than twenty-four hours at that time.” at ed with in- been planting to oeey from the family; not didn’t long to have something of her own without their directing its use, but she most ly was not giving up bondage to the To- lands in the flesh to go into bond- age to a Toland in the spirit. ‘The O14 Fossil ‘Of course,” she rémarked, “1 don’ “Ni aid you had fieither the vision to see the possibilities in the farm nor the stamina to face the work.” “Oh, he did, did he?” flared ‘omi, This sounded more like Timothy, the old fossil, And why, if he felt like this, had he troubled to will the property. to her?

Sooner than see this nh In possession of her frogs, she’d go out and live with the thing “When do I assume control?” she asked. ‘ Bartell seemed to relax. “Im mediately,” he replied. “I'd like | to leave for the coast tomorrow; however, if that isn’t conven- ient—” “Tt isn’t!” Hannah Toland an- swered for Tomi. “And the oy ea ‘that young lady will row ine tag Es oo 74 ly.
