A SENSE OF VALUES
8 \ - ' ' '
By Helen Baker Adams
T HE kitchen was warm and
gleaming as Emily Gaston stood
polishing the new automatic tea
pot that she hadn’t needed any
more than she needed another
head.
“When did you get that?” her
Aunt Tillie asked sharply. “It
seems to me, Emily, that you are
quite gadget-mad.”
Emily set the teapot in the cup
board and closed the door on it.
“Sorry, Aunt Tillie. I wondered
how soon you would say something.
I didn’t really need it—but.”
“You needn’t have used my com
ing as an excuse, Emily. You know
I can brew my tea in a pint jar
and like it to the last drop.’’
' “But it was my time to get
something for the house.” Emily
defended herself. “Elmer has some
new farm equipment.”
“I don’t see what that has to do
with it,” Aunt Tillie went on. “Sure
ly you have a normal sense of
'values. Where will this contest
end up?”
“It was Elmer’s idea.” Emily’s
head began to ache again. “He
decided that when he bought some
thing new for the farm work I was
to have something new.”
Emily turned away. She went in
to the den and brought back the
waste-paper basket from the desk.
She turned it up to empty it over
a large paper sack which she would
bum later. A sheet of stamps fell
to the floor—seals for aid to crip
pled children.
Emily looked up. Aunt Tillie was
standing with her mouth wide open
in pure disgust but she didn’t say
a word. Emily fished out the en
velope that had come with them
and laid both on the desk.
The conversation was somewhat
strained during lunch. Elmer talked
about his fine line of equipment, his
fine purebred cattle and his new
pick-up truck.
“I’ll get a new car come Spring.”
he said matter-of-factly. Then he
looked at Emily with’ interest. “I
suppose you will have something
in mind for the house.”
Emily didn’t meet his eyes In
stead she looked at Aunt Tillie and
wished there was a gadget that
could convey what she was think
ing to her aunt.
“You’re a surface skimmer,
Elmer! ” x'
“Huh?” Elmer laid down his
fork.
“Were you ever sick, Elmer?**
“Not me,” he boasted. “No fir!”
“Then you take it for granted
that everybody is as fortunate as
you are. That’s surface thinking.
Were you ever hungry. Elmer?”
“Gosh, Aunt Tillie. What you
driving at?” Elmer began to look
a little Ul-at-ease. “Have I done
something wrong?”
“Only that you take for granted
the good things of life without
assuming any of the responsibili
ties. You are your brother’s keep
er.”
“You know I don’t have a broth
er, Aunt Tillie. Hey. Emily, what’s
the matter with you?”
Emily knew that she couldn’t
stand another minute of this. She
felt sorry for Elmer—big, good,
unthinking guy that he was. He
had never yet been slapped down
by life. But she knew Aunt Tillie
was right. And she knew for sure
that she was going—to—faint.
When Emily came to her senses,
she was'lying on the floor, her feet
in Elmer’s lap. The look on his
face was so funny that she had to
laugh.
“You’re in for a rough time
ahead, little man,** she whispered.
“Dr. Jenkins is almost certain
you’re going to be a father.”
“A boy!” Joy shown in Elmer’s
round young face. “Aunt Tillie did
you hear that?”
“It could well be a girl, Elmer.
But whatever it is, I hope you will
have something to think about be
sides fancy equipment.”
“Sa-ay, there’s a new kind of
perambulator-high chair-play pen
combination—”
“NO!” Emily sat up and raised
her voice threateningly. “Nothing
doing. We will get down that old
walnut cradle that was my grand
mother’s and from now on the new
things for this house will be little
brothers and sisters!”

Exemplar of the 1954 Bukk's years-from-now
t/yling h this stunning new Sum Riviera
T he instant you see these 1954 Buicks,
you’ll know that something sensational
has happened in automobile styling.
Here is vastly more than the usual model
changeover. Here is vastly more than could
be done just by warming over what Buick
had before. Here is something accomplished
by going far beyond artful face-lifting.
Here is that rarity of rarities—a completely
new line of automobiles. *
But Buick didn’t stop with the bolder,
fresher, swifter-lined beauty you see in
raised and lengthened fender sweep—in the
huge and back-swept expanse of windshield
— in the lowered roofline—in the host more
glamor features of exterior modernity.
They upped all horsepowers to the highest
in Buick history.
They engineered a new V8 for the Special
— and in the process came up with new
Power-Head Pistons that boost gasoline
mileage in every engine.
I
buck
the beautiful buy
They brought to market a sparkling new*
comer with a famous name, the Buick
Century —a car with phenomenal horse
power for its weight and price —a car with
more pure thrill per dollar than any Buick
ever built.
And they did all this without change of the
price structure which, for years, has made
Buick the most popular car at its price in
the world.
We invite you to come in and inspect these
great beauties, these great performers, these
great buys. Then you’ll see why the Detroit
previewers are already saying, “Buick’s the
beautiful buy!”
When better automobiles are built Buick will build them
