BRINGING UP FATHER. “HELLO I What’s this I” This remark was from father, who, having finished his tea, was seated in the easy chair with the paper. Now, father doesn’t make a practice of reading the local “rag,” for reasons best known to •himself; but last night he contracted an interest which cannot be cured. However, with this remark he settled to the paper, and some of us younger ones, keen on reviewing the sports columns. had to retire to bed at a late hour without even knowing who won the Cup. To explain. Father is rather what one would call a “wowser,” and never casts an eye at any neat pair of ankles, and would never tolerate a girl of his indulging in the habit of powder and lip-stick. He has not been to a theatre for years, and pictures about once in the “creation of cats.” So, you see, we all began to grow suspicious as to what had come over father. Jim said it was racing. Sis said she thought it was the new hospital in Paeroa. But Mum said nothing and just looked kind of suspicious—you trust Mum for fossicking out anything. We had just gone to bed when Sis came in with news. She had slipped along to the kitchen when Dad had gone to bed and found that he had cut out the advertisement of the Dinkum Revue. We looked at each other and tried to fathom the other’s thoughts, when Sis turned to go, saying: “Dad’s slipping, that’s what he’s doing. I know more than you think.” “Oh- Sis., tell us !” we chorused. But Sis. just said, “Wajt and see,” and was gone. (To be continued in our next.) . Temieis. TENDERS.
