THtfRSPAYrM&RCHirmS- THE JOURNAL, PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA PAGE FIVE i by Hazel Heidergott v-.v TolFincl Copyright Macnie-Sniitli-Co. Distributed by NEA SERVICE, INC THE S TOUT I Ann has a ran: la rttk BevlafcBcdrUe.aelf-atrled aoeial arbiter o Fort Dnkr, cm their first mtlKv Bralak claims . the rt Mrs. Drake is er best friend. A p later meets and wakes frimds with lovely 'Joan V'arrea.aad her ftar yoangrsters. Joan Is amazed to leant that Abb Is the Beir Mrs. Colin Drake. . XVI ' A NN grinned at Joan. "You don't know Colin, do you?" ' "Of course I know him," Joan said indigniantly.-'Stan is quite an important executive of the Drake Line. He's been . after me to call on you, but you know the way it is She gestured sweep ingly over the heads of her chil dren. "I don't go in for society," she added. "Nor do I," Ann said.' "Perhaps it's just as well if tbe lady I met this morning is the ai biter. Some how, she didn't -: seem to respond to my fresh and girlish charm." ! "Dear Beulah," Joan mur mured. "No one likes hc-r but she's got 'em buffaloed. Or maybe Skippy likes her, though it seems incredible. He's a lamb, and everyone loves him -Who is Skippy?" '"Her husband. It's short for Skipper everyone called him that until Stan came along and changed it to Skippy, on account ;of he adored the Lawrenceville istories in the days of his youth He's Stan's boss. Stan's my hus band. But you were saying some thing about Beulah being social :arbiter Mrs. Colin Drake is that, whether she goes in for society or not, and don't let Beulah kid you: - "She told me that Colin's for mer wife is her most intimate friend," Ann said diffidently. Joan snorted. "Don't -you be lieve it. Beulah would have liked to have been, that's all. ; She's well she doesn't believe in di vorce, and has aired her views rather freely that you and Mr: .Drake are um, I guess I should remember the widely quoted say teng about little pitchers. You get my point Of course she doesn't go on to say that Millicent is, too, but she never was noted for her ogic." "Dr. MacDougal doesn't think so he married us," Ann said. 'And somehow I value his opinion rather more than Mrs. Bedelie's." SMALL Alan, beside her, downed 4V... Int. V,' f Inn set his spoon down carefully. He turned and looked at Ann, his eyes large and questioning. What," he demanded, "are you talking about?" Ann smiled at him. "Hi, fella," she said. "I didn't know you could talk, you've been so quiet." I don't talk with .my mouth full," he rebuked her gravely. "Every evidence of a proper upbringing," Ann agreed sol emnly. "Do you suppose you could bring your mother over to see me sometime?" Alan, apparently, had a literal mind. "No," he said, after con sidering it carefully, "because I'm not allowed to drive yet. But I'll speak to her about bringing me over. It's a little hard on account of the children's naps, but if we could come in the morning " "Joan," Barbara said, "I could eat some more ice cream easy." Joan said "No," gently but firmly, and ignoring her further protests turned her attention to Ann. "Alan is the only stickler torm the proprieties in the family. He calls me 'Mother' so meticulously and consistently that he's got Stan doing it and every time Stan calls me 'Mother he has to buy me a present to keep me frcm leaving him, so it's working cut quite well. I have to get these youngsters home and put 'em away for a couple of hours I never love them quite so much as when they're just bedded down for their naps. Could you come with me? Or would you be bored?" Ann wouldn't, and said so with emphasis. HPHE Warren home was a pleas ant, rambling place, of no par ticular period of design. The rooms were large and livable and lived-in, and even the piled-up furniture and workmen about couldn't disguise that fact. Joan was blissfully unapologetic for her house. She had told Ann the floors were being done over, and Ann still had wanted to come out, so she felt no apologies necessary. After putting the children to bed, they curled up in the window seat in the master bedroom, over looking the Sound, and lit ciga rets. "How old are you, Joan?" Ann asked impulsively, then added, "I'm sorry. I didn't really mean to be impertinent." "Dear child, I'm not ashamed of my age. Rather proud of it, in fact. I'm twenty-eight. I was graduated from the University when I was twenty-two. Stan and I had been married for six months then, and Alan was on the way, but I was determined to get my degree. To prove to myself and the world that I was a domestic science expert, you see. I've been proving it ever since." "And I'm going on twenty-five myself. I'd better get going on a family, hadn't I?" Joan studied her cigaret. "Its not a bad idea," she admitted. WHEN Colin got home that found a friend in town, Colin I can call her that already, although I've only known her today." "Who?" "Joan Warren AND her four bright and beautiful youngsters." "She has a bright and beautiful husband, too," Colin said. "I'm given to understand he is very valuable to the Drake Line. I'm glad you've found a friend, my darling you haven't seemed to take much to local talent so far." "She's real and admirable and altogether swell. I'm so glad I've met her." She was so pleased with Joan, she quite forgot to tell Colin of her less pleasant meeting of the day.
