GOT urc 5-26 HOT, murky, ringing darkness hid Mount so that Margaret could not have seen that dark graceful demon shape against the inferno. Only she sensed the rocklike refuge to which she turned, against which she flung herself, clung. Poor child, now fast, she clasped herself to the firm shoulders and arms under that moss-rough jersey. Drowning ladybird to a branch, blowo bindweed to the protecting hedge this was Margaret, frenziedly clinging to the man whose arms were now wrapped about her. Her eyes were hidden against his breast, but even so the lightning, flashing, cut its way into her sense of Bight.

He, too, ducked his head at that, closing his eyes upon her hair. Around them again that devastating artillery raged and roared and seemed to spit the heavens. Shattering to the steadiest nerves. To Margaret, claimed by it before her birth, it was devastation. But closer in her ear she, trembling like shaken quicksilver, caught his deep-toned: "Bit of a storm, this.

ItH be all right. Don't be frightened. It's only" the next crash seemed endless. For who, in a storm like that, can tell which is actually the lightning flash that shows every tiniest pebble, and which the searing picture left by the flash upon the tortured eye? Who can tell when it is still the bull-throated roar of the thunder itself, and when it is the loud echoes that racket in one's ears after the peal has passed? INTO the last of those crushing chords there came "slap slap." Isolated raindrops spattered like flattening 'bullets upon the nearby boulders. Violently, with a shriller, spatter, one fell against Margaret's wrist.

Another, with another sound, dropped upon Mount's brogue. She heard him say cheerfully, "Going to pelt with rain presently Look here, we'd better get under cover while we can. Here. To the right. There's this sort of slap Another huge raindrop got him actually in the mouth as he spoke.

"I see there's a sort of shelter place under the rocks. We'll see it in the next, flash. I shall shove you in if you don't" Just after the next flash he picked her up off her feet. Like a puppy being helped into a car Margaret let him lift her. Let? Precious little letting about it, one gathers.

Helpless, half-crazed with fright, the poor child felt herself carried a few steps downward, then pushed, shoved into some' recess; it seemed almost like the bunk of that yacht. She felt herself being gently bumped down, as a child bumps its doll, into a half-sitting position. "Mind the rock just above your head," came his voice. Rocks seemed to be at her back and above her; the ground was sandy or dusty? Only long afterward Margaret realized the place it was. A sort of arch formed by two boulders, flanking an overhanging brow of rock, a huge naturally formed cromlech backed by the cliff side.

Below, the cliff sloped irregularly down. The slap of rain- THE (Copyright. 1984. by BERT A RUCK ice, easing the strain of her arms. He threw his left arm to wreath her shoulders his right hand clasped firmly her upper arm.

"It can't go on forever. Nothing can. Ah, here's the rain in earnest By Jove." Violently the rain lashed down. Hissing, it flung its sheets upon the bay; flatly slapping, it look the rocks and boulders. Rustling, pattering, it poured into the scrub close their refuge some large fleshy-leafed plant a cactus, perhaps took the drops to the sound of rolling drum.

All those sounds resolved themselves into a noisy, angry sounding symphony of rain. The next flash of lightning showed it like a heavy curtain of strung silver beads. The bay, indeed, seemed changed into a flat-bottomed amphitheater of white mist, where the rain, striking the smooth sea water, spattered uVgain in millions upon millions of tiny, broken fountains. And presently there broke out into that chorus of rain noisesthe voice of their swollen stream. who was not there, have to make my own version of the scene which may or, may not be correct.

Sights, sounds and feeling of that night, have be pieced together. As sight I get well, nothing much. In the intervals between the flashes everything must have shown as masses of inky purple stationary indigo masses which were rock slowly, heavily writhing, drooping, masses, which were thunder clouds. Only every now and again the livid emerald across the horizon showed pallid misty "eea, jagged headland showed, too, most definitely, every shadow and shape of that rock cranny which was set, as in an alcove, that living statuary group terrified, shuddering maid, young man in whose arms she had taken refuge much she knew cared if it were a man, young or old, a woman her mother or me. AS sound, there was that artillery of the storm a thousand coal carts tipping over into the chute at once is homelier image there was the grow ing crescendo of the brook and cascade there was the steady, many-voiced lashing down of the thunder rain.

Now and again it seemed as if the thunder were abating; then that clasp would relax a little about his belt. But again the storm symphony would take an encore. Again the clasp would tighten. The small face would bury Itself more desperately against his shoulder, against the side of his neck or whatever came nearest to her. Against his breast he would feel her heart beating more wildly again.

At last against his ear he felt her lips moving again he heard a tremulous mutter. "Frightfully sorry frightfully ashamed myself. Can't can't help it somehow." "Ah. know you can't!" he broke in hearteningly, with a heartening pressure of his fingers that circled her trembling arm. "I know you can't, but what does it matter? Why, plenty of people are that way lots of people! Always in a blue funk whenever there's any thunder about I It's not only" Oopyritrht, 124.

Only was that warmly comforting refuge of human arms going to be drawn from her? In the next flash she seemed to see him moving backward while almost simultaneously the sky above their shelter split to another of those deafening crashes, peal after peal, it seemed as if it must shatter the whole cliff to pieces, must-bring every boulder down, like a child's house of bricks. Was he leaving her to this? So tightly she clutched him, the rough jersey was dragged down about his neck until it seemed, he thought, a cord t6 throttle him. He felt the movement of her lips rather than heard the words they tried to frame.

"You won't leave me. Please "Of course, I'm not going to leave you, child I'm coming in here to sit by you, if I may?" GENTLY Mount had disengaged Margaret's hands from dragging at his jersey's collar. At a fresh tumult the girl clutched him again, hiding her face against his throat, clipped him, in the tightest belt that he had ever known, around his waist. It was then, he thinks, that something in. his waist-belt went "crack" but only hours afterward didhe find that the glass of the miniature on the watch he wore in his belt pocket, had been shivered and starred across.

Only later he found that. For 'now he ha'd this frantic child in his arms to keep from going mad with terror in the increasing storm. "All right, all right. It can't touch you, my dear. Bury your head.

Yes. Don't listen. It can't touch us in here. This is a wonderful pitch great luck we were near it." He edged closer into that rock crev- HOUSEHOLD IDEAS A leftover Tip. Leftover string beans are delicious served in a cream sauce, flavored with a little lemon juice and paprika.

C- c3 Op 1 forward to getting when they invested their all in Sadie Preferred. They actually expected to get dividends in gratitude and appreciation and companionship that would make them rich. V' FATHER spent thousands of dollars on Sadie's musical education, and he had visions of how delightful it would be to sit and smoke in the twilight and have Sadie sing him the old songs his mother used to sing.

But does Sadie ever try to sell herself to father and make him feel that he is getting back the money he invested in her by even warbling one old ditty to him? Gosh! That old stuff? No! All that Sadie plays is jazz, and she doesn't even bother to play tliat for father. Why should she put herself out to try to please a mere father who does nothing but lavish every luxury on her and work for her like a slave? Mother used to have dreams about what wonderful companionship there would be between Sadie and herself when Sadie was grown-up and out of school. What long heart-to-heart tlks they would have How she would live her girlhood over in Sadie's beaux and parties It would please mother to death for Sadie to confide in her. Sadie knows it, but she makes no attempt to sell herself to mother, because it is a bother to explain things, and mother's ideas about what girls should do, and slhouldn't do, are of the vintage of 1900 instead of 1924. And what is the use of getting into arguments about things you are going to do anywayt And mother does without a new dress to give daughter an extra party frock, and wears darned stockings to give her the fresh ones, and picks up after her, and burns herself to death cooking good things to eat when she has company, whether site is nice to her, or rotten 9 to her, so what's the usef TT really never occurs to daughter to 1- sell herself to her parents by staying at home of an evening and givingthem her society, or by trying to amuse or entertain them, or by jollying them, or paying them any of the little attentions that older people adore from the young, as she would any other middle-aged with which she wished to stand in.

Because daughter knows that no matter how she neglects them she will get everything they have handed to her on a silver salver. If father and mother icere-diffi-cult, if new frocks, treats, pleasures, depended on keeping them placated, daughters would do their best to keep in their parents' good graces. Just so long as parents are easy marks children will play them for the suckers they That is a brutal truth. But it is the truth.

UNCLE SAM SAYS: BACK-YARD POULTRY KEEPIXG. In every household, no matter how economical the housewife, there is a certain amount of table scraps and kitchen waste which has feeding value, but which if not fed, finds its way into the garbage pail. Poultry is the only class of domestic animals which are suitable for converting this waste material into whole some and nutritious food in the form of eggs and poultry The Federal Bureau of Animal Industry advocates a small back-yard floclr to utilize this waste and has published a booklet on the subject. It points out the advantages of a back-yard flock of poultry and gives instructions for caring for them. Readers of The Sun may oltain a copy of this booklet free as long as the free edition lasts by writing to the Division of Publications, Department of Agriculture, WasJi-ington, D.

Slides projected in many motion-picture theaters early this week will call attention to "Near East Relief Bundle Day," to be observed Wednesday. According to officers of the relief organization, it is believed 50,000 pounds of old clothing for overseas refugees and orphans will be gathered in Baltimore on this date. The organization cares regularly for approximately children in orphanages and refugee camps, in addition to a largg number of aged men and women.

All branches of the Enoch Pratt Free Library and the majority of Baltimore churches will be bundle stations Donors are asked to send their bundles to the nearest station marked with a "bundle day" banner. Packages also may be sent to Near East Relief headquarters, 11 West Franklin street. I ft A WOMAN says to me: "I wish you would write an article on daughters 'selling themselves' to their mothers. I am oversold to my daughter. No matter how tired I am, I make an effort to entertain her.

She makes no such effort for me. If she looks bored, I invite her to go to a play or the moving pictures. She never invites me. I consider her wishes, her tastes, her ideas, her prejudices. She never -defers to mine.

Why shouldn't there be more reciprocity in the commerce of attentions between us?" The reason that a daughter doesn't try to "sell herself" to her mother is because she does not have to do so. The trade teas made, the bill of sale icas signed, sealed and delivered on the day on which she was born. From the very min-t lite in tchich the doctor pnit a red, wrinkled, squirming little bundle in mother's arms, and said, "It's a fine girl, madam," mother has groveled before her. And it is human nature, and especially it is young human nature, to tramp roughshod over a doormat and kick it about. MOTHER has given, given, given, and never demanded anything for herself.

Mother has sacrificed, and never even called attention to the fact that she was the family nanny goat. Mother has admired without even suggesting, that she herself had a few points worthy of the glad hand. Mother has always put daughter before her, and daughter naturally leads the way. Daughter isn't to blame. If you set a girl up to be queen, and if from the time she can understand anything at all you foster her selfishness and egotism and arrogance, and teach her that her will is law in her little world, and that she is the one to be placated in every way, how can yon expect her to be anything but a despot, ruthless in her disregard for the feelings and rights of others? Yet that is the state of affairs in the average American home.

It is ruled by a bobbed-hair flapper, who dictates to a successful business man who may govern a thousand employes with a rod of iron, but who trembles before his own 18 or 19-year-old daughter. IT is Sadie whrags papa and mamma, bored and cursing, over to Europe. It is Sadie "who evicts them from their comfortable old home among old friends, and lands them in a brand-new palace among people who laugh at them. It is Sadie who sets up the butler of whom they are afraid who picks out the new car; who determines every movement. "Sadie says" is the fiat that settles every detail of their lives.

Sadie has the family "sewed up in a sack," as father would say, and so she no mO'reries to sell herself to her parents than' father would spend time and money and effort going after a contract that was already locked up in his safe. i mvottm hard, on father find II IO frO I' I 1 if mother.
