This was unknown to 'Deborah's grandmother, an invalid, Gary, a servant, managing the finances. At twenty, the thought of marriage (greatly frightens Deborah. It had been planned that Deborah meet Stuart In iFrisco, where they were to be married. Tubby and Bryn await Deborah in a 'hotel in Frisco. Over a period of one 'year the groom is to prove he is no fortune hunter and can make Deborah happy to the satisfaction of her grand-mothe- r. Otherwise the fortune Is to 'go to charity. The will is somewhat ambiguous as to whom Deborah is to marry. The girl arrives with Holworthy. 'Tubby is surprised to find her charming .and sweet.

The grandmother and Bryn, 'who she believes to be Stuart, take tb jone another, which somewhat displeases Deborah, who foresees difficulty when they are to separate after a year. Deborah remonstrates with Bryn for his familiarity and insincerity. Bryn declares he Is sincere. st CHAPTER III h, Continued 8 r She was gazing into his face. A slow wave of color, quite unlike the angry 'flush of a short time ago, began to spread up from her throat over her face. She dropped her eyes. As for you, Bryn went on calmly, it would be most presumptuous for ,me to have any feeling for you whatever. You are, in a sense, my employer. I recognize that. I have no Idea of presuming on that relationship. Nothing could be farther from my mind. However it might' be easier .for both of us, under the circumstances, If we came to a definite agreement as to my duties and my attitude. Obviously we cannot go on as we began yesterday, or all our plans and sacrifices so far are wasted. She had turned away and was surveying the eastern horizon. Now she faced him. "Did you make sacrifices to do this for me? she demanded. Nothing of any particular importance," he replied calmly. Nothing that will not be far outweighed by the benefits I will receive from It However, a year is a year. She considered. Im afraid I was very thoughtless. I suppose She began to smile. theres even another girl somewhere out in the world, she said with a I am a stupid crea-.turbreath of relief. I might have guessed. Its because were so here. To put It perfectly plainly, you have been exerting yourself to the utmost to live up to your bargain, and Ive been ridiculous about it. Havent I? Im she bent sorry. Its going to be . . I think hastily and lifted her bowl. I have enough," she went on. Bryn took the bowl. They walked along leisurely toward the house. The sun had suddenly thrown off his veils of cloud and emerged In glory. Entering the kitchen together, they This is certainly found Gary there. an early-risin- g household, remarked Bryn. " Up with the birds, must be Its motto. d ' Bryn put down his coffee cup, Gary having served them in the sitting room. He reached Into his pocket mechanically for his cigarette case. Hind If I smoke? Across the low round table, Deborah shook her head. "You told me . . . and Mr. told me, too, that . . . that a divorce Is easy to get nowadays. Very easy." I didnt ask you, she went on slowly, something I should have asked. In Grandmothers day a divorce was dreadful. Id scarcely heard them mentioned. A divorce was a disgraceful thing.

I am glad, of course. It will make Gary feel much better. But has the world become so liberal-minde- d that she wont mind your taking this way to earn money for her? Her eyes lifted to his, waiting. Bryn considered. If he said there was no girl, Deborah might take fright again. Gary, thoroughly conscious of the amount of loveliness and charm and Innocence which Deborah possessed, would certainly do what he could to spoil this friendliness and trust which were beginning to spring to life. "I must tell Tubby what you said about him, he said lightly. He will be extremely flattered, as I am. And grateful. As for your other question I can assure you that no complication will arise. Mr. She had begun to speak, perhaps to question him further, when a bell tinkled Inside the kitchen. She rose Thats Grandmother, she hastily. explained, and hurried down the steps to the narrow side door into the kitchen. Bryn sat down again and lit another cigarette, thinking. He recalled himself with a start, and got up hastily. He lifted the table, dishes and all, and carried it down to the kitchen door. He set It Inside, went in, and drew it across the big room to the long white porcelain sink beneath the windows. Gary was there, with a big, clean apron tied over his trousers, washing up his own breakfast dishes. Deborah was not in sight Its a beautiful day, Gary. Yes, sir. Weve days like this all through the summer. It gets very hot In the middle of the day in August but the nights are always cool. What Bryn picked up a are you going to do today, Gary? Can you give me some kind of an idea of your routine? Ive got to have something to do, too. Gary glanced up at him from under his bushy brows. Theres enough to do," he said slowly. But Its not likely the kind of work youve been used to. Well, I can pick cherries. Deborah said you could use them. I suppose the strawberries in the patch have to be picked, too, havent they? And I heard hens cackling somewhere, although I didnt see them. I presume your fowl have. the usual set of signals. So I can collect eggs. Gary sighed. He rubbed vigorously at a plate. All them things has to be And theres potatoes done, he said. to hoe and corn to weed, and cucumbers and melons to water, and raspberries to tie up, and theres some branches of the apricot trees needing propping, I noticed yesterday." He propped his hands on the edge of the sink and looked up. If you want to work, he said, theres plenty to be done. . Bryn put a foot on the chair beside the sink. Had your hands full, hadnt you? he said. Gary did not reply. He was still searching Bryns face. Bryn met his eyes steadily. After a moment Gary turned away, without speaking, and finished washing the sink. He was just untying his apron to hang it up when there was a light footstep at the other end of the room, and Deborah came In. She was very pale, and there was in her face such a look of misery that both men stiffened themselves In, voluntarily. Grandmother liked the strawberries, Deborah said dismally. She She thought they were wonderful. might have been announcing the end of the world. Whats happened? Gary asked Whats the again, his face working. matter, Miss Deborah? Did you tell her?

Her industrial development in contrast with that of Britain is very small, but while agriculture and fishing support 1,200,000 out of a total population of 3,700,000, industry supports 1,100,000. Danish agriculture has then a substantial home market. The number of farmers In Denmark is close to a quarter of a million. In Britain the agricultural system was founded on the great estates, large landowners having large numbers of tenants. In the past half century the enormous burden of estate and death duties has broken up many of them and crippled others, so that British agriculture is today without the capital necessary for modernization and development. In Denmark very large estates have never existed. Small farms are greatly in the majority, and of the 206,000 farms In the country more than 43,000 are less than 3.3 hectares (eight acres) in extent, over 90,000 between 3.3 and 15 hectares (37 acres), and 66,000 between 15 and 60 hectares (148 acres). For hundreds of years the policy of the state has been to encourage the individual farmer, and an overwhelming majority of the farms are owned by their occupiers.
