In the midst of a frenzied search Mild red reappeared. She didn’t want to marry Lee, she said. Yes, she liked him. But love? How could she tell? She hard ly knew him. She wouldn't be forced into marriage. She was American. China’s ancient customs were de cussed. Mildred was reminded of them. She yielded. This time New Ye ar Day was fixed for the wedding. ;0n New Y’ear Eve Mildred disap peared again. Gloom descended on the Wen household. If his daughter returned, Father Wen swore he would send her to China, to be forever out of sight of the family she had dis graced. But for her three younger childien, Mother Wen declared she would kill herself. Mildred heard of this. Through and intermediary she sent word she would come back if Lee still would marry her. Lee consented. But Mil dred changed her mind again. She didn't come. Months passed. Without funds, the girl finally re turned home. Notwithstariling her father’s threats, she was received with rejoicing. Then Mildred did the typical American-feminine thing.
