Fun for the children is an im-
portant part of life to Mr*. Mary
Bard of Seattle, Washington. She
is the author of a delightful new
book, “The Doctor Wears Three
j Faces.” But until now, writing
has taken a minor role in the
Bard household. In fact, Mrs.
Bard says the book might never
have been written if her sister
hadn’t kept on urging her. Mrs,
Bard's sister, Betty MacDonald,
is the author of a best seller,
“The Egg and U’
Mrs. Hard is fuB of enthusi-
asm. She says: “I’m especially
crazy about kids. There's a side
yard to our home where dozens
! of perfect little strangers can
come i in and play.” She also
keep* open house for the young-
sters in a playroom which she
keeps well equipped with toys,
modeling clay and other things
children like.
Mrs. Bard is a doctor’s wife,
and her book is about the life of
a doctor’s wife. She says her sis-
ter aggrd her on to write It after
Mis* MacDonald wrote about her
own life and her husband on a i
chicken farm. Mrs. Bard says it
took her two years to complete j
her literary effort — in between
washing dishes and taking car*1
of her three daughter*.
The doctor's wife Is a vivacious
redhead with a lively sen*# of hu-
mor, She says being a doctor’s j
wife is no life for the clinging-;
vine type of woman. She ex- ]
plain* that a physician necessarily ,
is away from home much of the
time, and his wife must learn to
be self-reliaht But she adds; j
