expressionless face.

Either the performance of the Greek tableaux or the presence of the
little girl who had so dominated him during the years they had spent
together at the Gray House made Billy dazed and speechless.

There was no need, however, that he should use any intelligence save
to do what Lucy commanded.

Her dark eyes sparkled with a brilliant excitement, her rose cheeks
glowed. The stiff aureole of her dark hair made a striking contrast to
the whiteness of her childish costume.

The other two children were acquaintances of Lucy's from the Gray
House and equally ready to do her bidding.

So, whatever the others may have believed, Lucy Martin was convinced
that she had taken complete charge of Kara's tableau.

Watching the little girl, Kara in a measure forgot what she felt to be

Immediately after the son of Odysseus, Telemachus, makes his

by each other than they could have surprised their audience.

The change in costume, the gray in his hair, the lines of makeup on
his handsome boyish face, gave Donald a look of maturity, while
Lance's slenderness and the fact that he was several inches smaller

Together the father and son set forth to their home, crowded with the
suitors who, believing Odysseus dead, have come to seek the hand of
Penelope.

Instead of going directly to the palace they retire toward the woods
