The whole family was pitching in. 1 Mr. Winterowd and I made ourselves scarce in the kitchen. Really the safest place in the house. He said his daughter was moving to 657 Berkley Rd.

We had quite a “Maryan packed all the dishes last hight and didn’t leave anything out for breakfast,” explained Mr. Winterowd. “We had to borrow dishes from the neighbors to eat this morning.” Mrs. Block is a good packer. Her father laughed about how she packed all the children’s clothes and then couldn't find any pajamas for them the night before.

We heard a terrific clamor out in front. Not
