Elderly, generous, and impulsive, Miss Mary
Hall is wealthy enough to indulge any of her
eccentric notions for doing good. The most
recent scheme, and possibly the most eccen-

shortage and at the same time reviving that
noble though moribund institution, the great
big old-fashioned three-generation family.

linda Drew, to set up a sort of pilot project.
After Miss Mary has purchased a Victorian
mansion for the purpose, Melinda hires eleven
people, mostly strangers to one another, to
live together in peace and amity under one
ornate roof.
Casper and Myrtle Lane, who are to fill
the roles of grandparents, are indeed hus-
band and wife. So are Miles and Elizabeth
Hubbard, who represent the middle genera-

seventeen-year-old twin offspring, Ronald
and Jane. But the aspiring novelist, Victoria
May, who s to play maiden aunt, and testy
Reade Coleman, who ll stand in as bachelor
uncle, aren t related to each other or to any-
one else. Nor are the three Price children--
Robert and Leila and Holly, aged seven and
six and five--who are temporary orphans.
Everyone knows what happens to even
the best-laid plans...
