Jualor’s Prescuce Is All That Koeps Madge From Angrily Voicing Her Reseatment to Dicky As Dicky brought Edith Fairfax's name into his planning of an eve- niog gown for me, there suddenly fled from me all emotions which had been mine si 1 had made the effort to gratify Dicky by “dressing up.” in Junior's parlance, as a setting for the imita tion jade necklace. Was he so obtuse that he coull| not realize my resentment at his suggesting that Edith call me and plan the making of the evening gown he had just:sketched—1 knew only too well that his business partner's new found deadly efficien- cy would never stop with simply telling me where T could find the new fabric. Or was he deliberately trying to arouse my jealousy by the introduction of Edith's name? Either alternative was so repellent that T all at once felt chilled and infinitely weary. Lillian's talk had banished my resentment against Dicky for the scene in his office and his later clumsily staged explana- tion of it. My mood had heen 2 distinetly softened one when T went | to Junior's room, and Dicky’s bovish admiration of me, and the old look af tenderness in his eyes had stirred me strangely. But now my only emotion was pride. I must not let Dicky suspect how suddenly —my mood had hardened at his mention of Edith Fairfax's name. “Do tell her to call me” T said, forcing a pleased smile to my lips. “[ shail be awfully interested to kear about anything new. But warn you it it isn't just what taney, 1 shan't take it, for I saw some material the other day which was just what I wanted, and which vould make up wonderfully in this design. But I'm always open to con- vietion.” Dicky Is Peeved “Please yourself, of course, Dicky said, with a hint of petulance n his voice which always comes when any suggestion of his to me is not snapped up cagerly. “I'm going to,” I retorted, wrin- kling my nosge at him, and laugh- ing, the while I wondered what he v.ould say if h» could know the ef- fort ny apparent joyous casualness was costing me. “And I'm sure vou'll approve when you see the gown made from your design. I'm not going to do it in a hurry — 1 want to wait until I get into the But it will be worth waiting for, I'm sure.” 1 was also sure that the time of waiting would be extremely long. 1f Dicky never saw the real jade necklace until it adorned a gown in which Edith Fairfax had any hand. lie would walt many a day to look | the pleasurable | 1| 1 at it, T told myself viciously, even | as 1 crossed swiftly to Junior and Lent to kiss him, thus relleving ' Dicky, patently sulky, from mak- ing any reply to my last speech. “I must go back now, dear,” | | said. “It will be your bedtime beforc | you have finisied your stery.” | But my small son put his arms {around my nock and pufled me down on the arm of the chair. | “You sit right down here, moth- | er,” he commanded, laughing with | the freedom of a much indulged | | ehild. “You haven't sat this way and listened to Daddy's story for a long time. I might as well not have any mother. Put your arm around ! her, Daddy, the way you used to, and hold her close dunior Champions Madge ! Instinctively 1 shrank back. I did | not mean to, for both Dicky and 1 | have tried to kecp any knowledge | of our estrangement from our small son. But Dicky saw the movement. although Junior did not, and he | bastily drew back the arn. he had moved toward me in obedie.ce to his small son's manaat.. “We mustn't delay your mother, he said icily. “And you mustn't expect her to waste much time upon Remember your mother has a reer now. That's | why she's leaving you for the city.” | There was so much venom in his tones that I relt myself shivering. But the next instant T was tlaming from head to foot with fury. Woull 1 have strength, 1 wondered, to keep | from storming at Dicky like a fyixen? My young son saved me the trouble. H not only interprcted Dicky's words iiterally, but he sensed the contemptuous anger n his father's voice, and as always when anyone is discourteous to me | or critical of my actions, he ranged | nimself instantly and violently upon | my side. He burst out crying, and jumping down from his father's lap grabhed me tightly as I rose from | the arm of the chair. | “My mother does glve me time, | lots of it.” he told Dicky loyally choking back his sobs. n. «he| isn't going all the time to (ue city. | She's coming home almost every | week-end. She told me so. You're | {a bad father to say that. | Dicky rose precipitately. | “There seems nothing for me to, {do but to get out,” he said with | | mirthless smile, But before he { reached the door. a knock ound d | upon it, and when he opened it Lil- | lian spoke past it to me, an impera | tive note in her voice. | “Will you come into my room at | once?” she said.

That barn was a wonderful place for a Flying Squirrel. He could al- ways find plenty to cat there. It bight blow and snow and snow and blow outside, but inside it would al- ways be comfortable. Timmy had moved into the barn before Spooky the Owl did. He had known when Spooky moved in and for some time he had managed to keep out of sight. There were so many rats and mice in the big barn that Spooky was occupied with catching them moat of the time. o it was that he hadn’t seen Timmy the Flying Squir: rel until quite by accident he dis- covered him one evening. He had tried to cateh him and had failed. That had given Timmy a‘lot of confidenee, The result that after that he didn't try to keep out of sight of Spooky. In fact, he Ean to get lot of fun out of teas- ing $pooky. He would run out on some big beam, or on a rafter, in the roof and then wait until Spooky would try to cateh him. Then, just at the right instant, he would make one of those wonderful flying leaps of his and sail clear across the barn. Usually Spooky would fly after him but he never could get his claws on Timmy. 1t got o0 after a while that Spooky stopped trying to catch Timmy.
