Good Fences
“Good fences make good neighbors” is an adage made
familiar by a famous poem by Robert Frost. A recent incident
involving the Mexican border might be taken to show that
the adage has truth, for nations as well as individuals.
An official protest was received from Mexico, saying
that several thousand Mexican laborers, who lacked proper
“’’Wtvel credentials from the Mexican government, had been
"sBlowed to enter the United States. The United States, after
poking into it, apologised, said the Mexicans entered this
r-Wintry illegally and that efforts would be made to round
them up and sand them home, and that better border pre-
cautions would be taken in the future. That settled the dip-
L Mmatic exchange.

DONNA'S PARENTS, Jean and
Alan Collweii, had their usual
quiet Sunday morning breakfaM

as he asked her the ques-
And his wife laughed as she
shook her head.
Neither question nor answer was
needed. They understood each
other too well for that. They want-
ed to be on hand for Donna’s gay
account of the party the night be-
fore. They were interested in her
young friends and all their young
affairs. They had known most of
them from childhood. Their par-
ents were their own lifelong

Donna would sleep late, they
knew. They were in no hurry. The
first recital was worth waiting for.
When Alan retired to the living
room with the Sunday paper and
Jean busied herself with prepara-
tions for a mid-day dinner and
afternoon tea and supper, both un-
cohsciously kept ears alertly
turned to the upstairs for first evi-
dence pf Donna’s awakening. From
long custom, after the sound of-
mnnii-w water Jean could estimate
almost to the instant when to
start a fresh pot of coffee and
take tht .'-uit from the ice.
On this December morning the
waiting was long. It was one
o’clock and dinner was Already un-
der way before they heard the first
faint sounds < t movement from
Donna’s room. Jean Collwell
glanced at the clock and began
setting the tabli for two o’clock
dinner. So near the dinner hour,
Donna would be wanting no more
than coffee. Strong coffee.
Jean's timing was less accurate
than usual because Donna was
slower. The minute hand had
parsed the halfway mark before
her lightly running feet came pad-
ding down the softly carpeted
stairs. Her mother poured three
cups of coffee.
Donna Collwell could not prop-
erly have been called beautiful but
the unusualness of her appearance
gave an impression of beauty. Her
skin was of complete whiteness,
not pale, the fresh glowing white-
ness of a baby’s flesh. Her fea-
tures, except for her eyes, were
small and finely chiseled. Her hair,
of surprising blondness, was neither
yellow nor golden, but rather a
sun-bleached silver that formed a
shining halo for her face. Her
eyes were of bewildering darkness,
a midnight purple almost black, _,— — . _ .
