When　we　came　out　to　start　back　up　the　road　our　track　was　filled　in　by　the　snow。　There　were　only　faint　indentations　where　the　holes　had　been。　The　snow　blew　in　our　faces　so　we　could　hardly　see。　We　brushed　off　and　went　in　to　have　lunch。　Mr。　Guttingen　served　the　lunch。

〃To…morrow　there　will　be　ski…ing；〃　he　said。　〃Do　you　ski；　Mr。　Henry？〃

〃No。　But　I　want　to　learn。〃

〃You　will　learn　very　easily。　My　boy　will　be　here　for　Christmas　and　he　will　teach　you。〃

〃That's　fine。　When　does　he　e？〃

〃To…morrow　night。〃

When　we　were　sitting　by　the　stove　in　the　little　room　after　lunch　looking　out　the　window　at　the　snow　ing　down　Catherine　said；　〃Wouldn't　you　like　to　go　on　a　trip　somewhere　by　yourself；　darling；　and　be　with　men　and　ski？〃

〃Do　you　want　me　to　go　away？〃

〃No。　I　want　you　to　stay。〃

〃That's　what　I'm　going　to　do。〃

〃Would　you　like　me　to？〃

〃It　might　be　fun。　I'd　like　to　see　you　with　a　beard。〃

〃All　right。　I'll　grow　one。　I'll　start　now　this　minute。　It's　a　good　idea。　It　will　give　me　something　to　do。〃

〃Are　you　worried　because　you　haven't　anything　to　do？〃
