First there's llelen, then Bill, and then me. I'm Ted. f'QI'1n the family errand boy, and blame all, and scapegoat. Helen's the oldest' and she's nineteen and everybody calls her lloney. She's crazy about Margie's cousin, Harvey Dickman. Margie's Honey's best friend and shels always hanging around here. Bill's sweet on. her but he ain't got sense enough to take her anywhere. She's an awful smarty and treats me like I was about Eve years old. But 1 got something on her and Honey, and I'll get even with her. I heard 'them ravin' about ole llarvey Dickman and how handsome and wonderful and self-sacrificing he is. Ile's an inventor and he's giving his Whole life to inventing bee hives! That's what I said! Bee hives! l l Honey had an awful spell 'cause I laughed when she told the folks at supper what an honorable, highminded man he was, and how the world would progress if all the boys would choose some such life work. I saw Dad kinda smile but Honey began to cry, and Mother told me that I should have more respect for my sister than to laugh at her friends. Bill didn't say anything but when I was loaning him my best tie for a date that night he told me that he thought this Dickman must be a dizzy sketch. Then Honey came home the next noon and said Harvey was coming to Dick- man's for a week's visit on his way back to school. liut I didn't think any more of the ole insect cage inventor, and Tom Renolds and Don Kelly and me went campin' down to Uncle jake's place. Uncle jake's a sorta queer ole guy, but he's a good sport and a bachelor and he ain't a bit stuck up, even if he has got more money than the rest of the family put together. He's got a great big orchard and we helped him make cider when we were there. He gave us each a gallon jug and we're goin, to sneak it into our club room and wait till she gets hard. Uncle jake raises bees and honey and we told him about this Dickman dumb- bell and he just laughed. XVell we had such a good time while we were there that we thought it would only be right to bring him back with us, cause he's a mem- ber of the family and been there lots of times. Mother and Dad always liked him around and ole Honey and Bill managed to treat him decent cause he got 'em tickets to all the best shows. Vlfell, we brought him home and dropped him at Dad's office and Went on. XVhen I told the folks you'd of thought l'd brought home a wild elephant. The girls were going to give a big blowout for that crazy old Dickman person, and lloney said it would be an absolute disgrace to have Uncle jake around. And just when she wanted to impress Mr. Dickman too! That made me purty sore and I told them since they didn't tell the whole family about their doings I didn't see how in the dickens I wuz to know about it. ' But I told her Tom an' Don and Uncle jake and I were all goin' to see ifswe P52 couldn't get the rest of the gang and ask the folks to a movie an' We wouldn't eg bother her old party. Slie was nervous all day, and she was about as comfortable li to have around as an April shower. She cried when the cake stuck to the top of Q the box, and she cried when dinner was over and said that Uncle Jake was more i impossible than ever, and she would be disgraced forever if Harvey. should see him. ' .lust'cause Uncle .lake's fat and short and lzald is no reason to be ashamed of him. Page 22 , C, A . .ilciag 4. F ,iffgig , 4.1'.1ILLI.T?'gZ. . 1 j..3i:3g:v ,, . I ,.
