CHAPTER XXXIII

The task of selecting a suitable
Spartment was not so difficult as
Camilla had anticipated. She found
vacancies everywhere, and induce-
ments in the way of reduced rates
‘nd added accommodations were
offered by helpful landlords. She
looked at several places, compared
Prices and possibilities. Rose had in-
sisted that a kitchenette apartment
at higher rent would be more eco-
nomical than taking one room and
boarding out. Rose was a marvelous
cook and had scoffed at Camilla’s ob-
jection, “But I know so little about
housework, Rose, I'm afraid you
would have to do most of it for
awhile.” rs

| Camilla was delighted with her
final choice—at a bargain, it seemed
to her. She had ventured a little
| more than they had planned at first
|for rent, because of her unexpected
| good fortune in the position with

Ponte “Lipstick | Weeks and Bowman,

The apartment building was a
large one, quite new and therefore
more attractive, and a number of
vacancies permitted the offer of a
| Side-entrance suite at a sharp re-
peduction. ‘ i
; There were only one large room
with an in-a-door bed, tiny kitchen-

j and the tiny porcelain sink in the
kitchen, that it would be nice to

occasionally. And perhaps there
Would be times when Rose was away
that she and Peter could play—at
keeping house alone.

For a moment, she wished aching-
ly that it was Peter who would

but resolutely dis-
missed that happy possibility like the
good sportsman she had promised

| In the downstairs hall, she uscd
the public telephone to call Rose and
ask her to meet her at the apart-
ment to approve her selection. Rose
had not been informed of Camilla’s
new position, but she immediately
insisted, “If it suits you, it’s okay
with me. Just so you don't forget
we're not the Dolly sisters

‘I'm glad you didn't hate me,
Rose." Camilla slipped an arm
around Rose’s shoulders, hungry for
the family life that a strange fate
had snatched from her. I've always
needed a sister like you, and I want
to do something in return for all
you are going to teach me.”

“About what?”

“Well, you are going to teach me
to cook, so I can take care of my
Peter some day, for one thing. But
more than that, I want to learn your
viewpoint about—lifé! You are a
year younger than I, Rose, and you
think you have missed a lot of
things I've had. But somehow, you
are th one who has lived and grown
wise while I haye skimmed the sur-
face of superficial trifles. I want to
learn how to live deeply and wisely.
T believe that you can help me.”

Rose was silent for a moment.
That she had anything to offer this
beautiful, talented girl whom fortune
had smiled upon, was a surprise to
her, but she said presently, with gay
insouscience, “Well, if it's how to
make three and three add seven, and
how to turn the skirt of Iast sea-
son's dress into a blouse for your
new suit, you want to learn, I can
do all that. And I’ve seen Ma change
f roast into stew, then hash and
then tamales so often that I can do
the trick like a magician, myself,
Those may sound ‘trivial, my dear,
but they are really decp mysteries
of my life.”

“Any accomplishment that re-
quires thought and skill is a mystery
until it is done,” Camilla agreed.
“And those which seem the least im-
portant are the ones that make the
world go ’round, I've discovered.”
Later, when Camilla took her place
at the Hoyt table for her last dinner
as a member of the household, Mr.
Hoyt looked at her keenly and re-
marked, “So, you're leaving us to-
morrow. We're going to miss you
greatly, Camilla.” —

“I shall miss both of you, too,”
Camilla replied honestly. “But IM
come back to see you sometimes.
Tl be pretty busy, of course, and
won't have much time for pleasure
and friends.”

“You're mighty lucky to be getting
any kind of a position in such times
as these,’

“Oh, I don't know. I've heard so
many people told that they are lucky
to have work, even if it doesn’t pay
much. I can't see it. That isn't fair.
If one has ambition and ability to
work, why hasn't he a right to earn
a decent living? It is only the mis-
fits who are lucky to have jobs,”
her tone was a trifle defiant.

“Not turning socifalist, just because
you are going to work, are you?”
Alexander asked, with a twinkle.
“Nothing like that. I believe in the
individual, not the masses. But even

Go ahead and take it for a week,
and if we have to, we can look for a

“But I want you to see it, Rose—
it’s a duck of a place. And I want
to see you, because I have some good
news for you, then I'll drive you
home. I would have dinner with you
somewhere, but I promised to be
bome tonight.”

“To dine in state one last time?
Well, you'd better make the most of

ter to anticipate than to experience.

Homes For Working People
Large Nuniber Built Annually In
Nearly Every Country
In the years between the Armistice
and the economic collapse of 1929 all
the belligerent countries witnessed a
Sreat efflorescence of housing. Ger-
many up to the beginning of 1928
built very nearly 1,400,000 new dwel-
lings. A very large part of this
number was modernistic as well as
modern, of a type that is found in
other countries.
England and Wales before the war
used to build an average of 75,000
homes annually. Between 1921 and
1930 the annual average was very
nearly 200,000 homes and from the
Armistice to the present day the
number of new dwellings must be
well over two million. To this extent
Lloyd George's pledge of a country
fit for heroes to live in has been re-
deemed, Here at home we have had
n enormous amount of housing con-
struction, without any government
subsidy except tax exemption over a
period of years.
Vienna's model working-class homes
are thus no peculiar phenomenon:
and 60,000 such dwellings, as esti-
mated, would not be greatly exces-
sive, considering that Vienna is the
only large city in Austria—New
York Times.

Nothing is small or great in God's
sight; whatever he wills becomes
reat to us, however seemingly trifl-
ing, and if once the voice of con-
science tells us that He requires
anything of us we have no right to
measure its importance. On the other
hand, whatever He would have us not
do, however important we may think
it, Is as nought to us. How do you
know what you may lose by neglect-
ing this duty which you think is so
trifling, or the blessing which its
faithful performance may bring? Be
sure if you do your very best in that
which ig laid on you daily, you will
not be left without sufficient help
when some weightier occasion arises.
Give yourself to Him, trust Him, fix
your eye upon Him, listen to His
voice, and then go on bravely and
cheerfully.
