Even Harold was so quiet no one saw him leave the table. They knew he had. because he was returned to the dining room by an Old Abe who seethed with indignation. “The frogs are fed. The pens. the shelters, the chicken ‘yards, the boat, the tool house and the | Sarage are all padlocked. I'm go- ing to Alameda and I’m not com- in’ back till morning.” “What happened, Abe?” begged | Tomi, following him into the hall. “He tied Little Sweetheart to @toy cart.

Half an hour later Harold used the long hall as a bowling alley and succeeded in knocking down three of the five crystal can- dlesticks he’d placed near the| front door. The jardiniere broke on the lowest garden step. The men of the family helped Tomi assemble the beds and carry them from the sheds.

Only Great-aunt Hannah re- mained calm and unruffied. En-| throned on a straight-backed chair, she directed activities. Tomi had no time to think of Allen Bartell, and because of this, the sight of him caused her heart | to leap into her throat and re- main there. ‘It’s A Promise’ oly peace this belong to anyone here?” he inquired pleas- antly, from the door. and brought into view a small figure which dripped water from head to heels. “I fished it out of the bay with a gaff-hook.” May hurried her young son up- stairs and Bartell turned his charm on the Tolands. “Well, this is a pleasure.” he greeted. : “And it’s all yours,” whispered Mrs. Dougherty behind him Aloud. she asked if he would take her into town with him when he left. Tomi saw the golden glints dancing in Bartell’s eyes. “Abe,” she explained with dignity, “took his car when he drove into town. Pierre is driving mine to Sacra- mento.” sf The lights continued to dance. The family smiled with pleasure. The young man wasn't as impos- sible as they had thought. Before he left with Mrs. Dough- erty, Great-aunt Hannah had promised to knit him a skull cap to wear in his boat, and the male Tolands had promised to the boat immediately after bres st. “You're having dinner with me tomorrow evening,” Allen whis- but} nitely, there would have been no black army to fight the reds. snapped off the light. “Only; twelve hours more,” she sighed, | “and maybe they'll sleep late.” | She had forgotten a Toland! never slept late. j ‘This Is My Home’ i PROMPTLY at six-fifteen Great- | aunt Hannah descended the | steps, fully clothed, her gray hair | in a bounding pompadour. { “Tll_ prepare breakfast.” she! announced. i omi flew into het clothes.

Oatmeal must always be | cooked the previous day: steamed j properly.” } Fourteen pairs of eyes stared ' at Tomi, accusingly, some with | hope behind the accusation. “There is no. oatmeal. There is no car to be sent for oatmeal,” | returned Tomi evenly. | Six months earlier, Tomi would | tave taken the subsequent lecture | silently. Now she only allowed | it to get well under way. | “Listen,” she snapped, “this is | my home. I have no oatmeal. I do } have twenty white leghorns on a | twenty-four hour shift. This | morning you're guing to eat fried eggs and like them.” | Great-aunt -Hannah ate fried eges. Four of them. The rest of | the family followed suit. They ate ; toast, great stacks of it. They | jdrank coffee, gallons of it. Jars | of jam and jelly melted under | their dipping spoons. id Tomi, bending over the stove,.over the toaster, and dig- ging in the fruit closet for more | Preserves, vowed hereafter she would keep oatmeal on the shelf for such emergencies. | And again she gave thanks that | eleven-thirty would sce the fam- | ily enroute home. That spirit of gratitude grew | with the morning. She forgot her hatred of Bartell when he ap- Peared and took the men away with him. She only regretted he didn’t take Harold. Harold was irritable. His cheeks were flushed, | his eyelids too heavy. At ten o’clock Bartell returned play with him. Bartell swung him to his shoulder, then put him down hastily, felt of his hands and his brow. “This youngster must have taken cold yesterday.” he re- marked. Tomi didn’t see Allen when he left. Great-aunt Hannah was get- ting into the new “stays” and | needed help. Carrington told her | Mr. Bartell had said he was go- ing to his office and to remember }she was having dinner with him | that evening. The family was debating on whether to call three cabs to carry them to Alameda where they would spend the rest of the day. or walk to the bus, when May Toland-Carrington appeared. cry- ing hysterically. “Tomi, call a doctor. Harold says the room is full of pink He thinks Carrington is a fish.’ Tomi had an answer for that. but she didn’t give it She raced up to look at Harold, to place a cool hand on his brow. May was right. Harold was very ill. She would call a doctor, but whom? Bartell would know. but he’d be enroute to the office. Oh, why wasn't Dotty handy? Abe was somewhere about the place.
