At the close of the evening I realised that I had spent one of the most enjoyable evenings of my life and then suddenly I realized that I was engaged to Lennie and was it fair to him that I , should be able to enjoy myself ho thoroughly talking to another man when the man to who I mu bethrothed Ih hundreds of miles away In the Bast My conscience bothered me ho I that 1 could not sleep and 'Anally I {found refuge in the land of dreams by avowing that today I would write to Lennio and tell him amout my ncqautntunce with Mr. Tanner. So 1 1 will write to Lennio and tell him all ! before 1 go to bed tonight. Rut first 1 want to record down here such bits ot my conversation with Mr. Tanner as I can recall to read and laugh over them in future years. He came about 8 o'clock and as my brother and Hlster-ln-lnw was out to the nickle show I thought we could have a better time staying at home quietly and chatting so I did not make any proposal about goiug 1 out somewhere. "You ;?re looking very cute tonight. Clara." said Mr. Tanner when I had asked him to take a chair. ''My name Is MIrh Meyers to strangers." 1 replied. "1 should worry," he said, and I could not help from laughing at his boldness. "It would not be fair." I said, if you was to call me Clara when I feel that I can only call you Mr. Tanner." "I do not care what you call me as long as you don't call me down." be said. And we laughed as gnyly as (hough ,t\v?* had Known eacn other all our life. "Whore do you learn all that funny stuff'" t naked bantering))". "1 read the comic papers.'1 he replied. and really It waa all that I could do to keop from ahrleking. "They ?ay It makea a person fat to laugh." I said. "I don't want to got fat and if you come here often I am afraid I will get fat." "You could take on a few more ounces without any danger of them taking you to the stock yards," he said. "Why. Mr. Tanner, or I.ou," said I. "You talk like I was an animal of some kind. "We are all animals," he replied "Well, If we are all animals, you will have to tell me what kind of animal I ant." I said bantering!)-. "Well. kid. you're a bear." he replied. 1 wish 1 could recall more of what' was said, but It was all said so fast back and forth that I can only recall< Boston at St. Iamls. New York at Detroit.
