Love’s Awakening 'l'hllurlflnq By Adele Garrison T was glad that other mothers end daughters were waiting for a word with the head mistress of the Whitney school 5o that there was no opportunity for Lillian to answer Mrs, Barnes' pertinent query con- cerning Ronald Brixton. 1 guessed that the simple question had upset my friend and was glad to find a deserted corner in a room mnear cnough the hal to see the Brixtons when Marlon should bring them back with her, and yet removed from the observation of the women and girls surrounding the head mis- tress. “Did you hear what she sald, Madge?” Lillian murmured when we were safely out of earshot. “I heard her ask. ‘Why should you?" when you £aid you could not forbid Ronald's attentions to Marion,” I replied nonchalantly. “Is that what you mean?” ° “You know it” she replied sentfully. “‘It wasn’t what she said’—you know the rest of the quotation. I don’t mean I'm sore. I'm just wondering. Does she think " She stopped and looked at me ap- pealingly. 1 seized my fast-slipping courage, held it fast and answered her. re- Youth'’s Prerogative “She thinks, as I do, that you have kept Marion too much in cot- ton wool. Instead of half apologiz- ing for permitting Ronald to come to see her, you ought to take it as a matter of course. If you don't want Marion to magnify the idea you mestn't take it so seriously She looked at me steadily for an instant, then - clapped me on the shoulder. “I won't bite you, honest!” she sald, with a touch of her old impish humor in her eyes. “And I'm much obliged to you and Mrs. Barnes. Come back into the hall again. T see Marion coming up the steps with the whole Brixton family in tow. I must do the honers fer Helena, of course.” She was her poised, sensible self again, at least for the present, and her manner toward Ronald was the perfection of graciousness, not only when introducing him to Mrs. Barnes, but through the long after- noon, when, after Marion and Car- olyn had established their belong- ings in their room, we all drove through the hills surrounding Sack- ettsville, finishing with a chicken and waffle dinner at a mountain cottage which Marien had told us was the ideal dining place for every Whitney girl. Saying Good-Bye She was even complacent, out- wardly at least, when upon our re- turning the girls to the school, Ron- ald so absorbed Marion's attention that one of the teachers in the doorway reminded her and Carolyn that it was almost locking-up time, Marion only had time to give her mother a hasty kiss and a promise to see her in the morning before our drive back. Then the doors of the school closed upon her and Carolyn, and 1, sensing the loneli- ness of the two mothers, made a gallant effort to keep them talking about everything and nothing untit bedtime. We had time only for a glimpse of t¥e girls the next morning. They were extremely busy, prettily offi- cious and important, as were all the seniors, in welcoming the other pupils back to school. And when we | had said farewell to Helena Brixton |and her son, Lillian and I started upon our return journey with a | queer little feeling that we had left | some part of us behind.

Never to conclusions jump, Lest you fall and get a bump. ~—Old Mother Nature Who stole the chickens? That is what Farmer Brown's Boy was wondering. You see, one of his neighhors who lives a mile or 8o up the road had come to complain to Farmer Brown that a Fox had "“een stealing his chickens and that that Fox lived in the Old Pasture. He wanted that Fox trapped or shot. Farmer Brown's Boy had overheard all this. “Of course,” sald Farmer Brown's Boy to himself, “it must be true that a Fox has been taking the chickens and, of course, it may be that Reddy Fox, or Mrs. Reddy, who live up in the Old Pasture, or perhaps both of them, have this. But somehow I don’t believe it. You see, ever since the big storm T have been feeding them. I don't believe they have been hungry enough to take the chance of stear- ing chickens.” “What I 'want,” said the to Farmer Brown, “is for give me permission to set two or three traps up there in the Ola Pasture. Two Fotes have a den up there and, of course, it is one of those Foxes, or perhaps both of them, who have stolen my chick- ens.” “Perhaps,” said Farmer “it is some other Fox.” The neighbor thook his head. “1 have followed the tracks straight up into the Old Pasture,” said he. “I know you don't like to have traps set on your place, but neither do I like o have my chickens stol- en. Now, what do you say Let me think it over,” said Farmer Brown. “It is a fact that T don't want traps set on my place. My boy used to set traps, but he doesn't any more, However, if T am convinced that it is either or both of the Foxes that live up in the Old Pasture, I'll see that they are taken care of I want to be sure first, however, that they are the ones who are guilly The neighbor agreed to this ana finally went off. Farmer Brown's Boy at once asked if he might look into the matter and see if he could find out whether or not Reddy or Mrs. Reddy was the guilty Fox. Farmer Brown nodded his heaa. “0f course you may, Son,” said he, “and 1 don’t mind telling you that T hope you find that it wa other altsgether.” that afternoon Farmer tramped up to his onse nd went out to tracks in the snow. He look long and ook u 1 measu ock:t. “What are sked the “I'm me prints, Joy neighbor you to Brown, from you doing now? neighhor. ing one of these replicd Farmer zood does that do?” askea Farmer Brown's t looks a little lzrge to me. at is, it looks larger than the footprint of Mrs. Redd up in the Old Pasture. me about the size of the of Reddy Fox. “Well, Reddy Fox is T suspect,” yeplied the neighbor ust follow those tracks right hack and you'l find that they leaa straight up to the Old Pasture.

His clothes, his toys, his spe- cial collections of rubbish should receive the consideration accorded to the belongings of grown ups. His clothes are his own and should not be worn by a brother or sister without his consent. If the child has once been given a pres- ent he alone should have the right to lend it or give it way. It also 18| wrong to deprive the child of one or |3 toys as a disciplinary measure. The drawer of his table should b no more tampered with than the drawer of his mother's desk.

Mrs. Olive Maine, who left the professional stage for domestic life, originated the plan whereby volunteer players might gain oper- atic schooling _without going abroad. Under her tutelage, a coterie of youthful artists already has presented five operas including “Cavalleria Rusticana” and “Eli- jah.” Herself a former member of the Chicago Civic Opera gompany and the American Opera company, Mrs. Maine knows the tricks of back- stage as well as the art of present- ing involved productions. 8o im- pressive was the showing of her troupe that a group of native Ital- ians requested a special perform- ance of “Rigoletto.” Mrs. Maine’s students, all volun- tecrs, first study the opera to be presented. . They set up seemery and stage effects, patterned after professional models, in addition to learning their arias. More recenty American operas have been studied in preference to productions of the European school, principally because they are better adapted for English presentation. South Bend's musical world, which claims the distinction of having the only resident opera com- pany outside metropolitan circles, centers around Mrs. Maine’s school. Her students = also sponsor special musicales and choral programs. Mrs. Olive Maine (above) heads the operatic school at South Bend, Ind.
