Frank, her husband, was listening, too, at the other end of the field They had quarreled. They should have b&n together, holding hands, not apart nursing anger. Was it her fault if she was thrifty? Why did Frank have to blow up when she hinted at his extravagance? She was only thinking of their future ahd of the house they dreamed of owning. ' That morning she had founcl him in the garage. "Isn't it a honey now?" Frank had asked pointing to the portable radio on his work bench "It works like a top since I put in the four new tubes." "Four new tubes?" Ardeth gasped. "How could you when you know how much ,I Wanted new dishes?" There were angry tears in' her eyes. Frank grabbed the fedio and threw it into the corner. She stalked out, hurt and defiant. „ Later, when Frank asked: "What --« about the Fair?" 3«MinVte answered, -j.. stubbornly, "I m rrcrion going, but I'm go- ----------I ing alone." And the way she said it made Frank dash out of the house and slam the door. Suddenly there was a fanfare and Mr. Getty,,, master of ceremonies, announced loudly: "This is the moment you have been waiting for. For weeks we were fine-combing the community for the happiest married couple. Folks, here they are, Mr. and Mrs. James Pratt. Married twenty-five years and happily!" Mr. Pratt was holding his wife's hands and looking down into her face. Mrs. Pratt was beaming. Ardeth looked over at Frank but he was staring straight ahead. Mr. Getty talked into the mike. "We can all pattern our lives after this happy couple." He showered them with gifts; furniture, groceries and a bond. As Ardeth watched them walk off, she wondered about their recipe for happiness. Twentyfive years! Surely, Mrs. Pratt would be glad to help out a broken-hearted woman! 'The next morning was Sunday. Frank ate breakfast in silence and disappeared into the garage. Ardeth walked over to the bus. It wasn't a long ride. She was surprised to find the Pratt's house smothered in bushes and trees. It certainly symbolized happiness. A dream house! She ran up the steps wjth a lightened heart. She pressed the bell but no one answered. She could hear the radio and knew someone was at home., If they didn't answer tha front, perhaps they would the haok WONDER LAKE HOME APPLIANCES Om Door West of Standard Oil^ Station • Wonder Lake.

Later on, when Ardeth had been Invited in, Mrs. Pratt said: "Sa you came to me for advice?" She patted Ardeth's shoulder and said: "Perhaps I can give you some at that." She offered Ardeth some home-made cookies. "We're happy. Quarrels don't matter, every normal ipouple has them. But you can't ,'rhange a husband. You've got to Accept his shortcomings as he must, accept yours . . There isn't any recipe for happiness. But you can overlook, many things in life." When Ardeth got home Frank was still in the garage. She went straight to him. "I'm sorry about the tubes, Frank. I'm an awful tightwad." Frank's eyes brightened up like sparklers. He reached to a shelf. "I got you this ^at the Fair," he said, handing Ker a huge bow-bedecked box of candy. It looked awfully expensive, but Ardeth remembered about the overlooking part Mrs. Pratt had mentioned, so all she did was to look into Frank's ayes.
