Love’s Awakening [ Steadfast Womas By Adele Garrison Comforting J—hr\: Headache Al- most Brings Madge and Diky Into Each Other's Arms .1 have had few more trying mo- ments than the one in which 1 waited to see what Dicky meant to do in response to Junior's wailing regret for the “loving each other lots” which had shaken his childish soul after his flying out at his fa- ther. I longed infinitely to dash over to my child and gather him in- to my arms. Yet I felt instinctively that it Dicky should turn and sce me thus rushing to comfort ou small son. he would interpret my action as a support of Junior's rude- ness to him 1 did not have to wait long, how- ever. Both Dicky and 1 belong to that type which is a parent first, with every other human relation subordinating itself. and his pace | had no sooner slackened at the sound of Junior's wail, than it stopped. Then he wheeled and came back to the boy on a run. He went down on his knees beside the little figure prone on the grass, | but he did not at once touch him. His hands were “clenched, his lips | tightly closed. and T knew that he | was fighting some battle with him- | self. But T 4did not guess that it| concerned me, until he turned his face toward me, and his eyes, no longer resentful. with a certain | contrite appeal in them, met mine squarely | “We ought fo be ashamed of our- he said softly, his lips quirking into the old tender smile with which he d to presage a whimsical half-apology.

The remembrance sent my own resentment scurrying.

Suppose, | lefore we next saw him—with a | little cry of horror, suppressed al- | most before it was uttered, T rose | and dashed across the grass to my | boy's side. “It's All Right!” ! Together we raised him. as we | had done upon the few occasiona | when real grief had come to him. | Once when his puppy died, again | when Jerry Ticer had heen compell- ed to destroy an old horse which | Junior had ridden—I caught my | breath with a thankfulness for the infrequency of those fits of unhap- piness which mingled with a horror at mygelf and Dicky—for being mel sl | speak even a half truth cause of the grief which was shak- ing him now. “Darling! Look up! It's all right,” I whispered, as with Dicky bearing the most of his weight, I went back to my seat oy his playhouse and took him closely in my arms, while Dicky knelt by my side, his arms {around us both, “Look at us! We're | not angry at each other any more, |and we both love you so much, our | darling boy.” Junior could not control his sobs | at first, but gradually they ceased. land he looked from one of us to the other with the blessed resilient smile so comfortingly characteristic !of childhood. “That's bully,” he said. adding shrewdly after a little pause. “But ! T knew that ull the time. What 1 want to know is: Do we all love each other the way we used t0?" An Emotional Moment 1 caught my upper lip hetween my teeth at the dilemma which his question forced upon me. I must answer him in some fashion which would satisfy him. Yet how to with the consciousness that not only his eyes, but his father's as well, were stead- ily fixed upon me! But Dicky unexpectedly and chiv- alrously came to the rescue. “What do vou think yourself, Junior?” he asked. “Yau're a big boy. and can judge for yourself. Doesn’t this look as if th was just the same as old times?” With our boy's “eyes upon him, he bent his head and put his lips upon mine. It was the merest trifle of a caress. given I knew, only to satisfy the bov. and spare us from uttering a deiiverate untruth to him. But as he drew back with a re- assuring smile at Junior, T saw that he had suddenly gone white. It was hut a fleeting glance T gave him, however. and 1 was glad that he had averted his eyes. For I was trying valiantly to hide the consternation which that quick, un- expected caress had brought me—a consternation rising chiefly from the consciousness that I had been compelled to use all my will-power to keep from throwing my arms around my husband's neck and giv- ing him back a kiss anything but perfunctory. The next second. Life had swung back to a mechanical jog-trot, as it so often does. Junior sat up and wriggled away from us, his emotion forgotten. “Now that everything's all right,” he said happily, “let's go for = walk." i I looked at Dicky in dismay. Un- der the bizarre circumstances sur- rounding us, would we dare tq grant his request? (Continued Monday) Copyright, 1929, Newspaper Feature Service, Ine.

FREE TIME By Alice Judson Peale Although your child needs things to do, he needs also, sometimes, to do nothing in particular. He needs time in which to lie in a hammock. look at the sky, dream over a hook. All through the Yall and winter and spring he rises Dbetimes, dis- patches his breakfast with an eye on the clock. and rushes off to school. Released from the class room, he fills in the remnant of his day with hectic play. ‘The indoor soclability of winter evenings is gay with the give and take of conversation and laughter. When does he find time to think quiet thoughts, to loaf and invite his soul? Summer is coming. We scatter un- der the sky and there are idle hours—idle hours in which your child may taste moods of passive liv- ing and serenity. Of course, you want your child to spend an active, fruitful summer. But in your effort to see that he en- joys himself, do nmnof wedge his &chedule #o full of appointments and occupations thut there is no hour of the day left free. 1t is not necessary that he should be doing something obviously useful and worthwhile during al his wak- ing hours. i Do not feel that there Is some- thing wrong if, like the Maine guide. he sometimes “jests sets and thinks,” or even “jest sets.” When a child lies under the trees, with arms locked under his head, appar- ently doing nothing hut watching lazy summer clouds, he is not nec- esmarily wasting his timo. He is perhaps weaving which are the genesis of action. dreaming dreams which he will try to make come true. He is perhaps wondering about the wonders of the carth in a wav which is the unique prerogative of the human race.
