had taken those iteming years to make her toy an uncanny extent it to her pretty city aunt ag- that life was x tremely serious and mainly unpleas ant this same aunt was deter mined that now her exacting grand parents had died she should learn to be impractical the two were sitting one summer evening on the old farm porch the air was mellow with a surge of rain drenched geranium and roses and the scene as peaceful as the heart of katherine was not i m just wondering began ag ties if you ve ever believed in fai ries i rather doubt it have you the words were spoken so thoughtfully yet carelessly that catherine felt a sudden fear for her charming relative s sanity i cer tainly have not she said sullenly then perceiving that her reply was scarcely gracious she added grandmother forbade fairy books we did read some m school though you know dear to me that s horrible you did fairy tales yod poor youngster instead of living them i and in this paradise for this country is lovely it reminds me of sicily the ranch was situated in marin county california that home of ex quisite wild dowers you couldn t 1 suppose try just to please me to believe in them now you see i do believe in fairies that is in all lovely spirits dwelling in flowers and trees and sunsets and books and theaters yes dear i know grandmother thought theaters were wicked but they re not and m music oh yes there are fairies in music perhaps most of all i want you to know and enjoy all these things because until you do you just havent really lived at all and so katherine was taken to be outfitted in san francisco the girl inherited all her grandparents sav ings she wasn t poor but oh so poor in joyful experience thought her aunt katherine was passive she al lowed her hair to be bobbed and conceded it made her look less sol emn she submitted to soft and silken underwear she admired the attractive frocks and hats that now were hers but at one thing she rebelled she would not be nice to the well meaning young men her conscientious aunt provided as play males i i do not intend to marry aunt agnes she declared watching the seals ambling over the rocks from the cliff house i have a little mon ey and i am quite convinced i should be happier single you are quite the funniest little girl i ve ever met said agnes for you talk like a book about oh maybe 1860 you are far too quiet ever to succeed as a bachelor girl old maids are extinct it s just that you don t like the way harry s hair grows and the way ambrose eats spaghetti well i don t myself kathenne had to smile i con fess you re right aunt she said but 1 can t imagine how it is you know i chose a husband myself once her e clo for the adored husband lost his life in the beginning of the great war but kathenne you really do rather like jim jackson now don t you yes i do kathenne was always frank and j y won t think me crazy i 11 tell you why he hates the country my dear i her aunt paused then very softly was it as bad as that it was horrible if you really think that jim will never never want to go away even in the sum mer or if he must will fish alone i u have him he is rather dear in lots of ways but i won t ever milk a cow or listen to a squeaky radio or hold conversations over the tele phone with neighbors listening in again as long as i live aunt jim asked me to marry him last night i was afraid i don t know city life although i think i love it t ve never worn a dress that grandmother didn t choose last night is the first time i ve ever been to a theater until jim told me what it was i didn tknow the meaning of a sym phony concert i knew nothing but cows and calves and harvesting fruit and oh you have no idea how dreadful it wasl grandmother be lieved in mortifying the flesh and made me eat coconut cake i asked jim if he liked it and he said he d have a luxury tax on coconuts if he could and he hates coco too she sighed this is very very nice said ag nes forbearing to laugh jim s quite a dear boy and i know all his people well he loathes the country the kind of aspect of it that you know you poor poor child i as much as you do and he once threw a coconut cake out of the window when he was about nine years okl how heavenly katherine flew to the telephone and called jims number her aunt withdrew she growing young thank goodness she said to herself i couldnt have elderly ways much njsnty to talk about kincardine review reporter during the next federal election campaign which is reported as going to take place this fall there win be no lack of subjects for candidates to talk about first there is the railway situ ation which is ousting us in taxes i minion dollars per week there is the unemployment problem and lack of jobs for youths there are the yearly deficits and an increase in ourt nation al debt of over three hundrednlllioi dollars during the past four years there is the vegetable oils situation that is replacing the market for our own home grown animal fats there are taxes and
