How many times did 1 change tires. Del?” "About fifteen times." "Fifteen* Jeeae, I changed five times on that day we struck the cloudburst In—was that South Dakota. Del?" "No, North Dakota. Oh, I don't know.” "Five times on that one stretch, and I give you my word, not one day but what one tire went, and it was hardly a day we done two hundred miles I didn't have two, anyhow. I tell you, to come that far with no rubber is—” Della was coming in with the sleepy child in her arms. He had red curls like here, and he hid his face on her shoulder. "Look up at your Aunt Linda! Come to your dad. feller!" Lawrie cried. "No. he wants to stay with his moms.” Della said. Linda pulled her hat off of her head. She managed a smile. "Ob. he'x too tired now. Put him back on the bed, Della, dear. And now tell me everything. Where are you bound for, and what are your plan*, and how’s everybody—and EVERYTHING!" Della said: "Lawrie thought—be thought—” , Lawrie cut in. He said. "Sure I thought. Linda's doing good—look at the place she's gut! 1 thought she could get me a job here Why not’*' "Os course," Linda «aid, "a job. Naturally you want a job." Shei knew she was talking nonsense, but, the couldn't help it For 'he firs' | time in her life she thought she was I gu ng to faint. “I could sure use one," Lawrie said, "and I've come a darn long way to see about one. Things are sure bad out our way. The flood wiped out the fellow I worked with last year, and when Dills said why didnT we come out here. I thought that wax a pr<tty good idea. You're the only one abo has made much, Linda. I don't see yet how you do it. I don't know any itenogs out our. way ge't ing ail the dough you tfo." 1 "No? perhaps you don't know any j that work aa hard as I do," lunda said A ihin icy shell was closing over her h<-art that a moment ago' had ached with sympathy for this uncouth shabby «tranger who had onee been the brother she loved. "Maybe that’s right,” be said, and the look he gave her was sly and questioning. "Would you like a drink? I think there's some Scotch in the buffet, and ice in the icebox—” "Thanks. I don't drink. I didn't know you did." “I don't very often. However, I , eat quite regularly. Are vou hun-. gry? Mell see what era can find 1 I’m sorry It s the maid's day off—” She could have bitten her txtgue. She'd never mentioned the maid in her letters home. They wouldn't understand. "Oh. there's a maid.” Lawrie said. "Well, you ARE prrtty swell!" l*ella. still ster'liqg, holding the heavy, sleeping child, almost dropped him. "I should say sc!" "Everyone here has. Part time ones, I mean. .My hours are too long to do anything at home myself | frequently work nights. Rut I think 1 can whip up an omelet or samething. What do yoit want for Sonny, Della?" "Oh. he eats lust like us. That is, anything but beans. Reane don't seem tn ag -e w h him. somehow." She laid hint on the bed and followed Linda into the kitchen. "Don't let Lawrie get your goat.” oho whls-
