It might be a good thing if those people who wait so patiently for opportunity to knock at their door would give a good hard knock at opportunitys door. This Micaw-berliattitude of always waiting for something to turn up has its drawbacks. While these waiters are biding their time at home, others are out carving their destiny by virtue of their own hands and talents. Like many other ke proverbs, the saying that opportunity knocks once at every man's door" has been abused. Opportunity is more often found by those who go looking for it. Voice Writing.

I think, Mrs. Avery V An amused smile lightened Sarahs look faintly for a moment, that they think they're going to discover something. I hope they will, I exclaimed fervently. It was a beautiful day dew-drench- and My spirits arose at the mere look of the world. I dressed, went downstairs, breakfasted, and went out onto the piazza. Sarah brought me the morning paper. Oh how that garden of mine looks!" I commented idly. I'U do some weeding the moment I've read the news. There's a lot about the case, Mrs. Avery, Sarah told me. But nothing of the least importance. Theyve arrested every tramp for miles around but theyve aU had alibis. There's a list of everybody who lives on the Head maids and aU. They printed my name, It was true that there was nothing in the paper which adaed to one's knowledge of the case, but 1 read conscientiously both Sundays and Monday's account I noted that the pictures of my house were all taken at the wrong angle and that I was described as a leader of the older and more conservative set in Satuit. With the first impulse toward normal action that I had known since Saturday, I went into the . flower-rooin which I kept my gardening implements; collected my big basket, my gardening tools, my gloves. At that precise instant, Patrick O'Briena car curved into the drive. With a sigh I put the garden paraphernalia back into its place, returned to the piazza.

And youre sure no woman left the party? Nobody, man or woman, so far as we know but Ace himself, who as you know Tim Dolan saw and spoke to, and Molly Eamea and Walter Treadway who got into Mollys car and drove off. And then Bessie at about twelve. Bessies alibi is pretty good if, as Jos Geary says, Ace was murdered before twelve. Looks to me, Patrick went on, as though it was some woman on the Head. I dont mean that a woman committed the crime but that the woman Tony saw lived here! A woman could have walked over the causeway to the Head, I pointed out Some do every day. I think one of the boys would have seen her, Patrick answered, unless she came in the day sometime and hid somewhere until night. For the time being, Im assuming that she lived on the Head. Lets go over the list of people here. Got a big piece of paper, Mary? rd like to draw a map." I found an uncreased sheet of brown paper. I brought a pencil and an eraser. I cleared a big table and we sat down to it. Now well atart here with the Stow house, Patrick aaid, drawing a square at the left near the bot- tom of the paper. Everything sewed up there as far aa I and six sew can it cops up. "Lets go up the nill, I put in. Here are the Brays and the Gearys. I drew two squares close together. All four accounted for. Now we come to the Marden house." Patrick added a square. Both there! Patrick ticked them off. Both there! I echoed.
