There was Juliels new dress to finish and the best dishes to get out and chicken salad and rolls ax d ice cream and cake to snake ---to say nothing of the countless .ergs things that always thrust themselves into the most crowded days. Of course Julie helped, at least she meant to help, but there were so inuny inter- ruptions. Her mother patient:y pick- ed up all Tube's loose ends and f nigsh- od them along with her own tasks. She was too aired to dress for the party, but, since she had to be en the kitchen, it didn't make any difference. Julie, a lovely flushed little figure, received her guests and exclaimed happily over the gifts they brought. It was the custom in the `village to bring gifts bo a birthday party. Quite naturally she put out her hand for the blue -ribboned bax that Vera Stonelow had brought. Vera, 'however, laughingly held it behind her. "It isn't.for you. T knew` you'd have a bushel of things, and I always think a 'girl's birthday belongs' to her mother anyway. So I brought this for her. Where is she?" "Why -in the kitchen," Julie stem- inered. Vera ran back to the kitchen. Julie's mother, who wascutting cake and frowning a Iittle because theicing wasn't quite firm, looked up, startled, at Vera's kiss. "I've brought you a birthday gift," Vera said. "I thought,"—her voice trembled and then steadied,—"I thought you'd let me. I always brought one to my mother on her birthday, and I missed it so this year. I'm not much of a maker, but I made this." "Why, Vera!" Julie's mother ex - maimed awkwardly. "Put it on," Vera pleaded. "I want to see you in it." Still awkwardly Julie's mother opened the box. Inside was a large apron with lovely touches of embroid- ery. She put it on. The blue in it matched the blue of her eyes, and the excitement made a tiny pink flush steal into her tired face. "It's lovely!" Vera cried joyously. Julie's mother no longer felt tired. Even Julie noticed it when she ran out for something. She had kept hear- ing over and over again the queer thing that Vera had said about a girl's birthday belonging to her mother. Vera did have queer notions! Up in her room in the blessed quiet Julie's mother was resting - at last, But she could not sleep; she was too happy.
