Todd can have* your other single bed. If you don’t tfirnd, and I’ll sleep on the cot. Now, not another word! It’s settled.’’ This conversation was taking place a few days after Todd’s father had had his heart attack. In that time much had happened. On Sunday night the doctor had pronounced Dr. Hunter out of immediate danger. “N o t,” he had added gravely, “that danger is past. Or will be past tor some Uma From now on, Mra Hunter, your husband’s life will have to be very carefully ordered.” i Todd’s mother’s reaction to the whole situation had surprised Joan greatly. She seemed to be a changed woman. A tew days After the doctor had said this, she had Mkcd Todd and Joan both to come into the living room with her. She wanted to plan for the future. There was a nurse upstairs who would remain for another night or two, so she was free and things must be cleared up, she said. ; > "Your father will resign,” she had said. “In fact, he has already resigned.

Nixon Uncertain Os Indianapolis Date INDIANAPOLIS (INS) — Hoosier Republicans were informed today that Vice-President Richard Nixon is not certain whether he will be able to attend a meeting in Indianapolis this September. Earlier, Nixon said he would be present for the mid - September groundbreaking of the new East Side Community Hospital. However, • Nixon now says he is uncertain and won’t be able to say , definitely until late August. -- County Agent To Be On Television Aug. 2 County agent L. E.

ahead to a thousand and one plans and hopes and dreams ? How must tt feel to be able to see right before you the end of the long, long road of life? Mrs. Hunter spoke again. "They are going to ask the young assistant—Mr. Harding—to take over the church. He's known to the congregation. He had the pulpit last summer when we went on our vacation, you remember. And he has preached here a number of times over the past year. He is known and liked. And he is already engaged to be the assistant. Now, instead of being just that, he will have all the ministerial duties. It’s strange how it’s worked out so quickly and so well.” Todd had said, “But what will you do, mother? You and dad?” “Father can’t be moved yet Probably not for some time. The doctor said spring perhaps. But he wouldn’t commit himself. Then we’li go to Florida as we've always talked ot doing. There’a a settlement down there for retired ministers. 1 think we’ve told you. Weil, we’ll simply Jain that group. With our pension I’m sure we’ll get along." f - “Mother Hunter, what can we do? What can i do to help you now?” , For a moment the older woman’s mouth trembled. “I'm coming to that.” Bhe bad gone on, then, to say that the Reverend Harding was married and had two young children. He and his family had been living with his wife’s parents, but the older couple had recently sold their house and so the Hardings must move. They had been planning to make Mapleton their home, if they could find a place here. And now that the parish was definitely to be his charge, they were, of course, entitled to come into the manse. “But we cant.Jeave yet, of course, so—w e 11—there are two possibilities open. We can either store our things in the atUc until father is well enough to go south, and let the Hardings bring their household possessions right in from the start. Or they can, put theirs in the attic while they’re waiting for us to leave. In either event, however, wc will have to make use of your apartment,” She looked at Joan a trifle anxiously as she said this. "You see why, don’t you?” "Os course." "Even thougn we have two guest rooms big enough to take care of the whole Harding family," Mrs. Hunter went on, "Father could never in the world stand it to have two children traipsing over the house. He couldn’t stand the noise. They’re only two and four, you know, and you realize what that means. Neither oric in school and both of them clattering up end down stairs all day long, shouting, crying, fighting, too, if they’re normal children. If father could stand the move. I'd any we d go into

your place. It’s bound to be quieter. But the doctor says no. So—" She broke oft again and for the first time tears seemed to threaten. Joan spoke quickly. "Mother Hunter, our apartment Is available for anything that seems best. Todd and 1 can go over to mother's. . . So now nere they were, krith a quiet Christmas behind them. And into their own little nest at the rear of the manse would come next week Mrs. Harding and her two babies. Young Mr. Harding would have one of the two guest rooms In the main part at the house, since there would not be space for him In the apartment, with both children having to share the one bedroom there with their mother. But it waa best that way. He ought to be near the telephone—and available at all hours, not only to his parishioners but In case he wanted to confer with his predecessor. Also—though no one said this—in case, after the nurke left, Mia Hunter needed help in an emergency, - 1 Without warning, she and Todd were navmg to give up their home and they would probably never go back to iL It was one thing living there while his father waa the minister. But now that a stranger had taken over, It was quite another. The Hardings might not want them there. They might want the entire manse tor themselvea Or— What seemed more likely—Mrs. Harding might ask her mother and father to come there to live. Joan stood a moment on the threshold of the living room. All their expectations of saving money! AU the rent they were not going to have to meet for a year—two years—maybe three! Now, unless they remained at her mother’s, rent would stare them in the face as an inevitable part of theli budget. **But I don’t want to stay at mother's.” ”1 won’t think about it,” Joan decided, “not yet I’ll take it for now. I’U accept it until the Hunters leave and we have to move our furniture out of here. Then we ll ece.” Two months, m a y b e—perhaps three. Doctor Rogers had said spring. That was a vague term. Spring began In March and ended In May. This was January. It might be four or five months before she and Todd could decide what they would do. By that time he would have his contract for another year of teaching. - Maybe with It woiild come a raise. Perhaps enough of a raise for them to real another Uttle apartment somewhere. But would the raise be enough for eighty dollars oe more a month? , “Well," |he thought, “maybe he’ll get enough so we can pay the fifty dollars that the Bannocks are paying mother now for the third fipor apartment Their lease is up in the fall.
