TBRRY I’UIC'E rose leisurely from
his deep chair as his telephone bell
rang. “Let her ring," he said. “What’s
the hurry?"
But when he heard Bentrlee Hard
wick's voice In the shaky "Hello," he
came vividly to life.
“Why, Bee,” he said briskly. “Why,
Bee, It’s great to hear you. To what
do I owe this unexpected and unde
served pleasure?"
“Terry," said Beatrice, “don't be
sarcastic, I—"
“I’m not being sarcastic. Just
truthful. To what—”
“Hush up,” said Beatrice, crossly.
“Terry, It’s pretty awful. I’ve lost my
Job."
“My dear girl,” he said sympatheti
cally. "That’s good news. It doesn’t
do to linger too long with the minor
ity. Join the majority, even If it’s
wrong, and have a good time."
"I wish you wouldn't be so horrid,”
sighed Beatrice’s voice. “I don't know
what to do.”
“I do," said Terry. “Marry me. I
haven't been able to ask you for two
months because you had a Job and I
didn’t, and I’ve sort of got out of prac
tice. Bee. I mean It. Two can live
more cheaply than one. We’ll prove
It."
So Terry and Bee were married.
Beatrice had a foothold awny in the
country—a small farmhouse and some
not very good land which she had In
herited from her grandmother. And
Terry had a small—very small, but
pretty sure—Income of the unearned
sort.
They were married one morning, and
traveled that day to Bee’s little house.
And they spent their honeymoon
painting and cleaning and patching
and arranging. And within a month
they were living happily away from
the world as It they had never known
the clatter and glamor of New York
and tne uany otnce grina.
But within a month their family
had grown alarmingly. Whenever
Terry drove to the nearest town lie
cnme home with some sort of pet.
Terry’s content and happiness were
persistent. Sometimes Bee lamented
her lost life. Not that she wasn’t hap
pier now. She was happier. But she
couldn’t feel that it was quite—well,
quite right, to have such a good time
and worry so little about the future.
And all their animals—they only
made a stronger tie to break when
she went back to her old life.
“But It Is right,” Terry reassured
her, as they knelt beside each other
thinning out the radish bed. ”It’s the
Tightest thing there is. Look!” Terry
settled back on his heels and pointed
his remarks with his trowel. “We
aren’t either of us paying rent. To
be sure, I'm living In my wife's house,
but what of It? She likes to have me.
And we’re going to grow enough stuff
to make us fat this summer, and what
little money I’ve got goes a darn sight
further here than It did in New York
and—oh, Bee, aren’t we happy!"
And that ended it, for the time. Of
course, they were happy. As she list
ened to the crackling tire later on,
Bee admitted to herself, without reser
vation, tiiat she was happy.
“Terry," she said, the present
crowding out the past, “let’s get up
early tomorrow and transplant the let
tuce. And then take our lunch and
go picknicking over at the lake.”
Next evening, when they cnme back
tired and happy and hungry, from
their day at the lake, Terry stopped
to get the mail out of their box bj
the roadside, while Bee hurried aheai
to open the house and start the tin
for supper. Under the front door wai

The sixth. Bee's heart sank. It was
the fourth now. But of course she’d
go. She’d have to go. She sprend a
yellow linen cloth on a table before
the living room hearth and mechani
cally laid out the old blue china that
had been her grandmother’s. She
poured a saucer of milk for the Per
sian cat. Of course she’d go back.
Lovely old china—dear little house;
but of course she'd go. Site got a pen
cil and paper to write her acceptance.
She'd telephone a telegrnm. ‘‘Sorry,”
she wrote, while still saying to her
self: “Of course I’ll go—I’ve got to."
“Cannot return. Have better job.
Thank you for offer.”
When Terry came in, Bee was hum
’ niing. She had pulled a blue apron
over her pink dress. She stood before
the fire, cooking bacon and stirring
cocoa and poaching eggs and making
toast as If her life depended on get

can since Monday, marketing
:ome of his produce. He
jrought in about 2,000 pounds
)f rutabagas and 1400 pounds
)f carrots that he raised on his
Unuk River farm, and has sold
:hem locally, encountering no
difficulty in finding buyers, he
claims. In a few weeks Mr.
Matney intends to ship more of
iiis garden truck to local mer
chants.
“In addition to his rutabagas
and carrots, he says that he
raised all the vegetables neces
sary for his family’s table for
the coming year. Last year he
planted fruit trees and berry
plants, but a few years of de
velopment will be necessary
before it can be determined
whether or not they will thrive
and bear fruit on the Unuk.
“An interesting report by
Matney i's that last year he
planted wheat that thrived and
ripened. This spring he plant
ed seed from that crop and
finds that it is maturing. Oats
grown on the ranch attain a
height of 5 and 6 feet, rivaling
the famous LaConner flats in
oat growing possibilities, Mat
ney asserts.
‘The farm cultivated by
Matney is on the flat, untim
bered grasslands found along
the Unuk River. He believes
that several families home
steading in that area could find
a comfortable living in agri
cultural pursuits in that valley,
but he discourages the entry
there of anyone who has not
ample means to equip a farm
with the necessary improve
ments and to live there for two
years, working the soil in prep
aration for raising crops. No
clearing is necessary in most
places, he says, but the soil
must be worked and sweetened
for at least two years before it
can be cultivated to advan
tage.” ; uiit 1
ALASKA NOTES
Earthquakes felt recently at
Juneau and Skagway stopped
clocks, upset floor and table
lamps and lasted in one in
stance 80 seconds.
Pilot Bob Reeve recently flew
from Dawson, Yukon Terri
tory, to Anchorage in about 8
hours flying time. The trip is
believed to be the first direct
flight between the two points.
Dr. Philip S. Smith, chief of
the Alaskan branch of the geo
logical survey, has been ap
pointed Alaska representative
of the public works adminis
tration.
In the first commercial air
plane fatality to occur in in
terior Alaska, Pilot G. E. (Ed)
Young and his two passengers,
A. D. Roberts and Eric Nelson,
were killed while making a
landing at Livengood, near
Fairbanks, a few days ago.
Reports fail to indicate the ex
act cause of the tragedy. Young
was one of the most exper
ienced of Alaska pilots.
