Tie Middle Ground By MARION RUBINCAM
THE DAUGHTER Chapter 3 Few marriages hold their romance
through 30 or more years, and none have ever done so when every day la a series of petty worries, petty discords. Amy Talbot turned to look at her husband now, not because she liked to look at him, or wanted to see him as she had in the old days but because a puff of smoke from his pipe had reached her, and the odor was nauseatingly unpleasant. "I hate that pipe. I wish you'd get another," she said, drawing her mouth into an expression of distaste and frowning unpleasantly. To this Jordan Talbot did not even reply. He did not stop smoking, nor even change his position so the air would cease to carry the detested odor to his wife's nose. Such small courtesies were far beyond his comprehension now. Once he would have flung the pipe away, have given up smoking forever, if Amy had but suggested she did not like the smell of it! But Jordan, like too many other men, had grown callous and careless with the years. He was so used to Amy that she no longer counted, and her likes and dislikes, being only too familiar, did not worry him in the least.
t At one time he would have replied j that a new pipe cost money, and Amy i would have realized that she had betI ter put up with a mere unpleasant jodor than part with half a dollar! But
she knew now that half dollars were more plentiful than they were early in her married life; a pipe and many other new things could be afforded. But she did not expect a new pipe, nor any recognition of her wishes, nor even any answer to her complaint. The remark was a routine one, so to speak. She often spoke about it, she never was answered. If the smell bothered her, she moved so it did not reach her and promptly forgot she ever complained. She forgot tonight, because she was too tired to move. She sat on the top step with her hands clasped in front of her, arms out, elbows supported on
I her knees. Hre hands were freckled
and dry from sunburn, and covered now with soil that had caked while she weeded and had formed black new moons under her finger nails. "Where's Amy?" Jordan Talbot asked finally. "Off with Dick. Maybe they're walking, maybe they've driven to the movies." The mention of the movies brought a sound of disapproval. But Amy Talbot paid no attention

to this. Her husband habitually disapproved, age had only made him bitter. Had she said the daughter was walking, he would have considered that improper; had she been at a party at some house in the small village nearby, that would have been as bad; had she been indoors reading, some objection would have been found. Only a young Amy sitting silently on- the porch, hands under her chin and eyes staring into vacancy, satisfied him. Had he known the wild, daring, ambitious thoughts that raced through the girl's mind, the hair-brained plans for getting away, the fragments of hectic romance drawn from a long experience with Vfo movies he would have risen from his rocking chair and showered condemnation upon her. But he never guessed. Amy came up the road, accompanied by the shadowy figure of a boy. Neither the mother nor father had to see the figure, they knew it was Dick Rowland, only son of Richard Rowland, who owned a flour mill near the village, a farm, and another mill in Hornbrook. The Talbot house was two terraces above the road the first terrace was really a stone wall, with a flower bed along its top and trailing green things that grew down to clothe the stones. The next terrace was grass with set flower beds in the shape of stars and

In a way we want to go with these boys again but we don't want to let them know we crave their friendship. Please give us your advice. BOBBY AND BUDDY.
