She quickly crossed the bustling street and paused only for a moment to gaze into a dreamy dress shop window. No one would have guessed the excitement concealed inside her. She had a mission.

THERE WILL BE TIME . . IT WAS night. Down by the wharf the rain beat relentlessly on the boat anchored at its mooring. She stood on the deck bundled in a man- nish raincoat, her face wet and shin- ing. Chris tried to remember. Once they had been a part of this lake-she and Bob-a part of its glistening waters. Chris 'could still see him just as she had always remembered him on the lake-she pictured his skill in rowing, that perfect diving form, that gorgeous tan. How she had admired him! She became his favorite satel- lite. He taught her to swim, and row, and she, in return, often read to him as they basked in the sun on the yvhite pebble beach. He went away that fall to college. Chris missed him, but always 'she thought of his winter vacation. She had a surprise for him-she could ice skate. Chris had taught herself dusky afternoonson the frozen lake. Now, finally, Bob was home. Bob, come down to our lake and fshe grew prouder at the wordsj skate with me. The twinkle in his brown eyes, his By Marion J. Morris, '49 delight at her efforts was reward enough. His encouraging words- how she cherished them now-his last gift. Ice on the far side was thin, the water, deep. No, Bob, look out -her warning came too late. Chris -she could still hear his help- less cry as he disappeared. The ice pinned him beneath its cold spread. He hadn't even a chance. Chris leaned over the side rail now gazing far down to penetrate the greedy, turbulent water. She had to leave. The car was waiting to take her home-to the new house away from here. She lingered a moment and then started the long climb up the sloping street. Someday she would come back. Chris and the lake could be friends again. She paused halfway up the steep incline and turned. One day she would no longer see Bob's face in every wave. Chris could smile and no tears would come rushing to her eyes. Till then-she hurried away into the rain and the night. Someday she would forgive the waters for capturing him-her Bob, her dearest brother.
