THE KENDALL HOUSE XXV rpIEY went In John's cor, with "'Debby and Agnes sitting in the back scat. Agnes kept looking at D y and smiling, picturing her as she was going to be with rornc good clothes and a hat like Agnes had seen in last Sunday's roto gravure section, and maybe a permanent, and perhaps just a touch of lipstick. They turned off the road into the Kendalls' driveway. It rati through a neatly trimmed grove of pines and came out into the yard in front of the garage doors. The garage was for two cars, and it wa3 attached to the kitchen. Kllic pointed to one of the doors. "We'll keep tho Holls-Roycc in that side." Agnes opened the door and Btepped out and walked idicad of the others down the path, mem orizing every detail of the front of the house as she went along, it was low and rambling, it had silvery .gray shingles and ever prcens and thrubs all acros3 the front and gardens on each tide of tho porch. By the time John got around lo opening the front door, Agnes had decided she was going to rent this house, even if it took all the seven thousand and more too. John stood aside to let her pass, nnd she stepped through the door. To the right wa3 a big, airy liv ing room, and she vwnt over to it and stood in the Vvldo doorway, looking from side to side, smiling, imagining herself living in a place like this. The dining room was over to the itft oZ the hall, and beyond it the KiU:hen. The refrigerator and the .':tric stove and the sinks were gaming white enamel. 7.ry went upstairs, and Ellic kni itimielf busy opening doors.

"Boy!" said Ellie. rJPHERE was a bedroom beside the bath, and Agnes went in and looked around. The furniture here wo:; not covered, except for the mattress on the wide bed, which was wrapped in paper. But what caught Agne;' eye was the dressing table. "Debby," she called. Debby came and stood in the doorway. "This must have been Frances Kendall's room." Debby looked around calmly. "Probably," she said. "It'll he the one you'll have," said Agnes. Debby looked at her blankly. Finally she said, "You're not really tuinkin o' rentin this place?" "You bet your life I am. Why not?" "We couldn't ever feel right in a place like this." "That's just the trouble," Agnes said briskly, "it's about time we began to learn to feel right in a place like this." She walked to the window and stood looking out. "I should think you'd be begin ning to realize that." When the looked around, -Debby was staring levclly into lief face, her mouth sullen. Agnes returned her gaze, un disturbed. Thai she' hummed a little tune to herself. "I got fa message for you," sho said at last, and when Debby said nothing, she added, "From Jock" Debby'a expression did not change, "vyiicro did you tee pot a recent bride. The shower .Mrs. J. J.

Agnes agreed; and after a moment, "Joel asked me to say goodby to you and to tell you he was sorry about the fire. And he said to tell you now how did he soy it? he said to tell you he'd try to get back here someday." Dcbby's eyes clouded, but they still stared resolutely into hers. Agnes realized more than ever how badly she had been hurt. "He don't know what he thinks," Debby said gruffly. "I don't care if he does come back or if he doesn't." "Neither do I," Agnes said blithely. "But let me tell you this: the next time somebody like him comes along, he's going to find, things different in the Daniels family.
