CHAPTER XIV In less than two days, the Invading army of locusts had been almost com pletely destroyed and the hot, brooding air was full of an awesome peace. Rut It was the peace of death.

On the following Friday evening. .la so ti and I'aula drove down In time to Sohave dinner with the old folks. phronla, feeling more like herself now, determined to make their visit an occasion for bringing the family together. 'Well celebrate!" she announced. "There's been enough grief around here the past two weeks. Lord knows I What with me dyln' and the crops burnln" up and the hopjiers eatln what's left, there hasn't been much celebratln' In this place. I'll ask Roddy and Corinne to come down for supper and bring old Steve along." I'aula and Silver and Sophronla went to the kitchen to prepare the meal and left Jason and old Roderick to themselves in the living room, where they reviewed the ravages the district had suffered from the plague. Stiver her self delivered Phronle's Invitation to Corlnne and returned at once to help with the supper and to talk with I'aula. When they were ready to sit down at last, Sophronla went to the window and looked out. "There they are now," she said. "We'll get the things on the tnble, Silver." She hesitated and thrust her face closer to the window. "Where's She Isn't with Corlnne, I wonder? Roddy and Steve." "Probably putting on her best dress for the occasion," old Roderick suggested. In a moment Roddy stepped Into the house and greeted Jason and Paula. "What's keepln' Corinne?" Sophronla Inquired. "Supper's ready to go on." "She's not coming," Roddy frowned. he said. Sophronla folded her bands In her apron. "She's not comln'? What's the matter, then?" Roddy made a gesture of dismissal. "Don't ask me, ma! Gosh, I give up trying to understand women." "Do you mean she's goln' to stav up there at the house by herself?" Sophronla persisted. "She was ready to come down with me when she told me that she would have to leave immediately after supper to go over to Harry Rlcliter's place. I told her It might be a good Idea If she moved her things over there and she went off Into one of her tantrums. I can't do anything about it." Steve slumped Into a chair. "We'll get along without her, I reckon," he grumbled. "Steve!" old Roderick rebuked him. "Well let's sit In, then," Sophronla ordered. They took their places at once and Sophronla forbade any talk of the plague or the hard times that loomed ahead. "We might give our Ideas of what kind of a grandfather we're going to make out of pa," Jason suggested, with a wink at Paula. "He'll be pretty green at it for a while," Roddy laughed. "I might have had a little practice, my lad," old Roderick retorted. "If you'd done your duty." Silver glanced at Roddy and caught the look of embarrassment that darkened his face as the others laughed. "Hold your tongues, now all of vou!" Sophronla spoke up. She turned "I clean forgot the Jar o to Silver. pickles I set out. I wish you'd bring hem in. I'm fair run off my feet." Silver was grateful for the opportunity to leave the table.
