For at last I have held the cup to my 1'ns from which so many moth- 1nd wives have drunk, have faced realization that until the war is over there’ll be no more “home” for Dicky and me. It will be “quarters” for Dicky, for the few weeks he remains on this side of the ocean, and danger and hard- on the other side. For me, home” will be a place . of burden- bearing and of the herculean task of adjustlag a limited income to the wants of two elderly, semi-invalids and an infant. “I miss him so!” This is the heart ery I rigorously stifie, but the knowl- edge of which is never absent in my waking moments, and which follows me into my dreams. Since the trag- edy of his accident, with the excep- tlon of the short period of misunder- standing over the checkbook, my hus- band and I have been nearer to each other in spirit than we have ever been. I torture myself with the ap- palling picture of the wasted days of our married life, which held no such spiritual communion, Wwhich were filled with bitterness and recrimina- tion, and wonder fearfully if we will be vouchsafed other days in the years to come in which to make up for our lost opportunities. A Dangerous Note. But I allow no hint of this heart munger to appear on the surface. Not one of my little household has seen me with reddened eyes or even a de- spondent face. It's my creed that if Dicky can fight I surely can smile and face whatever comes. At first I was afraid that my mother-in-law might think me toq indifferent to Dicky’s going, but a little incident of the week following his departure for camp reassured me. 4 ‘With Katie's assistance and that of Mother Graham, I was packing up and putting away Dicky’s beloagings ank succeeding "A SHOW THAT SENDS YOU AWAY SATISFIED, CHARLIE CHAPLIN in “SHOULDER ARMS.*® OHARLIE IN MUDDY TRENCH LIFE VIVIAN MARTIN in “UNOCLAIMED GOODS.” VAUDEVILLE | KEENEY’S ‘THE DANGER MARK’ Featuring ELSIE FERGUSON CHARLIE CHAPLIN N “SHOULDER ARMS.* “The Iron Test.” Comedies.

Oh, how maay times I see heem paint in dis! An’ I joost know I never seo heem do it again!” She put the coat into my arms and then throwing her apron over her head she sabbed violently. I knew that her grief was genuine, and that her uncertainty concerning Jim, from whom she had not heard for weeks, together with her raw grief for the baby she’d lost, had helped to un- nerve her. And the unexpected touch of the coat, the subtle, familiar odor of Dicky’s favorite tobacco, battered, almost wrecked, my owa self-control. Mother Graham’s Tribute. /T saw Mother Graham put her trembling hands to her face and turn her head away, knew that I must di- vert her attention, and that quickl for neither her heart nor her nerves are in any coadition ta stand an emo- tional let down. “What nonsense, Katie!” with a judicious mingling of ness and reproach in my tone. Mr. Graham could see you = He'd paint you just as you are, with your apron over your head. That wouldn’t be a bad plcture, either. T think I'll ask him about it the next time he gets a few hours off from camp.” There s never but a hair’s breadth between tears and laughter with Ka- tie, a fact on which I counted. There was the sound of a suppressed gig- gle, and then she emerged from the apron, her face wet with tears, but lighted with smiles. “Maybe he feex a little vun soa-ve-nir to remember chuckled. “Perhaps,” I retorted. “And now take these things downstairs to the my chol »m the closet zing under she I said for sho one me, vard, brush them, and leave them to air for awhile.” “All right, I feex,” she returned, gathering up & pile of clothing, and the next mement I was alone with my |‘ motherin-law, wondering fearfully if she thought me callous. As Katie's footsteps died awayv down the hall she took her hands] from her pallid face, all quivering with emotion and looked at me stead- | ily, searchingly. | “Come here, Margaret,” she said | quietly, and the next moment I was bending over her. “I want yau to understand,” she said slowly, “that I think you are the bravest woman I know. Don’t ever imagine, my child, that I don’t realize , what you're going through. And-—you | don’t know how you comfort me. I— I—couldn’t bear his going, I'm afraid, if you weren’t here to help me.” !
