She sometimes worried that they had so few girl friends, because in high school they'd both been so popular. It was probably, she thought, only due to the fact that after they were graduated, the other girls went on to boarding-school or to the state university, and former contacts were lost. Smiling, Miss Amy thought that! at least the Cameron girls had never lacked for young men friends. They came in swarms, like bees to molasses! . .

w . AND THERE was one of Sidney's high school intimacies which hadn't languished. Norma Lyon—such a nice, conservative little thing, and her father a Baptist clergyman. A shame that last year the Lyons had moved across the Ohio to Henderson, Ky. But sidney had often visited them since then, and Norma was a good correspondent, really a prolific letterwriter. Several days each. week Sidney got a letter from Norma; she would take the letters up to her bedroom to read, and then dash off an answer, | “What in the world do you write about?’ Miss Amy had asked. | “Just nothing,” Sidney said “Just | craziness. , . .” ” . ~ SIDNEY obligingly glided into it: “Jerusalem, Je-ROOS-alem—" Beauregard lounged against the piano stool. “I don't like Jee-roos-alem!

She sat in her rocker under the lamp, and darning basket in her lap, and listened to Sidney, who! was at the piano, playing and singing. { The Rosary was lovely and quite adapted to Miss Amy's mood; but the piano was really terribly old, some of the white keys sticking, the pedals squeaking. The piano should be tuned. “Now, Sidney,” Miss Amy said, “the Holy City.”
