"Awful sorry, Auntie," | murmur. "Choir practice to-night." Next morning Lucille rings and invites me to morning tea. ‘Sorry, darling,"’ | carol, "I’m shopping with Garbo." "What?" says Lucille vaguely. | repeat. She rings off violently. About two the ‘phone rings again. "Bridge, dear, do come!"’ Swift mental calculatiori. reminds nie of "Between You and | and the Gatepost." ‘’Dentist,"" | wail, and hang up. mo Peace till 6.45. Boy-hero calls with the car. Frantically | think of "The Baling Butcher,’ "CockEye the Wailer,"" "The Fair In-truder’-and develop agonising toothache. Boy-hero sympathetically offers to call next morning on his way to work. This is too much. Weakly | whisper, "Aunt | Daisy!" and = swoon away.-
