CHAPTER FOUR
One- of the twee hobbies of Mr.
Ballard had been of necessity Isus-
pended: the church bells were to
be rung now only as' an emer-
gency alarm; 'Lady Beldon was
still going to hold, her flower
Show', however, and the station-
master had definitely decided to
enter his "Mrs. Miniver"' rose . in
aviator's uniform. . Mrs. Miniver
took a deep breath, and tiptoed
closer.. The pilot looked', very
young; he was asleep and, his
clothing was torn and stained.
Turning impulsively, Mrs. Mini-
ver began to run. Her' foot trip-
ped--onnea-stone-and=she_sent peb-
bles and sand flying as she caught
her balance. All at once a Teu
tonic voice called out from be-
hind, like a pistol shot.
Mrs. Miniver looked: 'back. She

and probably no one within ear-

"Make ,noise—I,shoot!" mutter-
ed. the German. "Food -drink,"
he continued:
Mrs. ' Miniver, • pointed to .:the
house, and beckoned to him to
follow. As she watched, she saw
that one arm hung" helplessly at
his side, and: that he walked with
effort,
When she reached the door-
way, and saw the look of sus-
picion: in the wounded' flier's. eyes,
Mrs. Miniver toid him that her
children and the maid were all
asleep; upstairs. •Her only thought
now was to allay his fear until
she could some way, somehow,
reach'a telephone or give a warn-
ing signal. She gave the German
some meat, and a ,bottle of milk.
Then he asked for a coat; she lo=

"What?" :cried Clem. He turned
to his wife, "You mean a Ger
man ' flier' was here?" He stared
at her. "Did' he have a gun?"
"Oh, yes," nodded Mrs. Mini-
ver, "but I took •it away and called
the police."
Clem dropped back ori-thd bed,
and laughed till the tears came.
"Gosh! What a woman!" he ex-
claimed, when he could catch his
breath, "And I thought you'd
been Having a nice,. quiet time
while I was at Dunkirk."

Lady Belden's arrival was not
: unexpected to. Mrs. Miniver. She
,had foreseen a visit from the
since Carol and Vin had announc-
ed her engagement.
"I think I cap guess why you've
come,'.' said Mrs. Miniver, taking
her hand. '."I hope'you'r'e as pieis-
e d as • we are."
"I'M afraid note" said Lady
Beldon stiffly. "Wily, `'those two
are still infants." She fixed her'
eyes' On Mrs. Miniver. "I think I
should tell you, I hope to per-
suade Carol to wait--"
"Isn't it' a Beldon traditioin to
marry young?" asked Mrs. Mini-
ver.
"I don't know what you mean,"
said Lady Beldon, knitting her
brows. ,
