preciation of their wholehearted co
operation with the Direct Relief

Look Abroad
Hardly a day passes without some grumbling,
publicly expressed, against present living conditions
in Canada. The grumblers are legion, and they are
not confined to any one class. Their plants are as
varied as imagination could well make them. Yet
business continues to go up, financial conditions im
prove. and the general welfare of the nation shows
betterment. It might do the grumblers a lot of good
if they were to stop grumbling for a day or two and
spend the time thus saved, in examining living con
ditions on the other side of the Atlantic. In Europe
nobody can cross any frontier without a passport
and—in the case of Germany—hardly a nickel in
their pockets. People along nearly every European
border live in daily terror that the morning may
bring war and a rain of bombs out of the air. In
the totalitarian States no man or woman may speak
his or her candid opinion if it happens to be critical
of the government, without fear of imprisonment—or
worse. Free speech is dangerous, even in private. No
man knows whether his. neighbor is not a government
spy. No man knows whether there is not a govern
ment spy even in his own family. Food conditions in
most of the countries of Europe outside the British
Isles, with the exception of France, Switzerland and
Scandinavia, are very unsatisfactory as far as the
masses are concerned. Undernourishment is spread
ing, with its inevitable concomitant results. And
over hefe in Canada we go freely about our business,
speak our minds, have no fear of spies, know we are
safe against any sudden attack by land or sea or air,
move over the border and back at will, are are peace
with our neighbors, and enjoy such utter freedom
from apprehension that we can find plenty of time
to rail against every administration and feel very
sorry indeed for ourselves that we are not living the
life of Reilly by the sea. Perhaps it will need a remote
earthquake shock to shake us out of our foolish com-
plaQmcy—and grumbling moods.—Selected.
Goodwill Advertising
Last year the Massey-Harris Company, Limited,
embarked on a special series of advertising, with the
view to establishing a closer and more intimate re
lationship between the Company and the farming
public. The economic difficulties which beset our times
naturally give rise to much criticism and many sug
gestions as to remedies, but the complexity of modern
life on the other hand, precludes the easy understand
ing of, and therefore the placing of proper values on,
the various functions and phases of our business
world or economic set-up. As a result much of the
criticism is unfair and many of the suggestions im
practicable.
The responsibility, however, for the lack of correct
understanding must to a very great extent be ac
cepted by business itself, and would clearly indicate
the need to keep the public fully informed as to the
part it plays in the economic set-up, and how effic
iently it does it.
A series of advertisements, the first of which
appeared jn our last issue, are not only designed to
keep farmers fully informed on the Company’s
machines and their features, but are also conceived
with a view to creating a higher regard for what
farm implements in general, and what Massey-Harris
in particular, have meant and continue to mean to
the farmers of Canada.
The advertising manager of the Massey-Harris
Company writes us:
“^ince goodwill-building is the basis of the series,
we felt that they should run in the publication which
comes closes^^o the interests of its readers—their
local paper—and so we have chosen your paper in a
select list of Ontario Weeklies to carry these
messages.”
Canst Thou Beat It?
Consider the editor. A child is bom unto a mer
chant in the town. The editor writeth a stick and a
half telling the multitude that the child tippeth the
beam at nine pounds. Yet, he lieth even as a centur
ion, and the proud father giveth him a Cremo.
Behold, the young one groweth up and graduateth,
and the editor giveth a swell notice. Yea! a peach of
a notice! Like unto the rose of Sharon is the young

What Is To Be------”
A distinguished gentleman of the medical profes
sion, Doet'oh Clendening, thinks that most of us fuss
too much about our health, that we have exaggerated
health tears, and do a lot of worrying that merely
makes^matters worse.
He asks the question, “Can any one, by taking
thought or care, add to his span of life?” and replies:
“I do not think so. The fact is that the span of life
•f* any individual, barring accidents, is largely de
termined at the moment he starts off. The number
•f years a man or woman''lives depends upon the
impetus he or she received, being the result largely
•f hereditary factors.”
It is true enough, as Dr. Glendenlng says, that a
■tan h as old as his arteries. But what causes ar
teries to harden? Akohol, red meat and salt havebeen accused, but Clendening notes that some peoplewho go in freely for these things go on to ripe oldage, and the others who flee them religiously die ofapoplexy and angina, in a state of decrepitude, at theage of say 59.Exercise and fresh air are supposed to be thesovereign augmenters of long life, says tho doctor.He admits that they make one feel better, but hedoubts if they promote long life. Many active men
died in their early 60’b. On the other hand there
are no end of octogenarians who never took a day’s
exercise in their lives.
“An impartial examination,” says Doctor Clendcn-
ing, “convinces me that nothing anybody does to him
self after he is born makes more than a few hours'
difference at most.”
He is not speaking, of course, of drunkards, or dope
fiends, or people who more or less deliberately wreck
themselves. One suspects that many doctors would
agree with the eminent Clendening, but what he says
sounds like sense to the layman.
British Empire Oil
This is the age of oil as a fuel for transportation
vehicles and much other machinery, and it is very
necessary that the British Empire should have a sup
ply. Alberta has come into the picture quite prom
inently in the last year or two and has done much to
increase the Empire’s source. In fact the increased
oil production in Alberta has raised Canada’s per
centage of British Empire oil production from 7.1
per cent in 1937 to 13.8 per cent in 1938. Alberta
oil production increased 3,945,131 barrels to 6,742,-
039 in 1938 over 1937.
Trinidad, producing 17,757,325 barrels or 35.4 per
cent, led the Empire in oil production.
Bahrein Island, in the Persian Gulf, produced 8,-
478,G54 barrels or 16.9 per cent, and Burma pro
duction totalled 7,557,098 barrels or 15 per cent.
Canada came fourth with 6,944,039 barrels, or
13.8 per cent. Total Empire production was set nt
50,213,804 barrels, with total world production 1,-
991,217,979 barrels.
The balance of Canadian production this year
came from Ontario, 168,000 barrels; New Brunswick,
24,000, and Northwest Territories, 10,000 barrels.
In the ten years from 1914 to 1924, total product
ion ih Alberta was 96,504 barrels. From then on
production mounted until 1931 when it reached I,-'"
455,195. The 1931 record stood until 1937 when
production totalled 2,796,908 and then this was dis
placed by the 1938 total. Since 1914 total oil pro
duction in Alberta has reached 20,514,341 barrels.

HOUSE and HOME- by Mary E. Dague -Author of Sister Mary'sKitchenOur church circle made some old-time pomanders for the Christmasbazaar this last year and they proved
so popular that we have made dozens
since by order. So if you are racking
your brains for something different
for your Easter bazaar you may like
to try these scent balls.
Edith Elliott in sunny California
gave me the idea and I’m passing it
on to you. Take a small, thin-skinned
orange and stick it just as full as you
can with whole cloves. Roll in powd
ered orris root and wrap in waxed
paper. Storte in a close tin box for a
week or so- Then wrap in cellophane
and tie up in a pretty box for dis
play and sale.
Oiir great-grandmothers sometimes
used apples instead of oranges to
make their pomanders when they
were badly in need of a scent ball
for their closets.• • •
A weak solution of nicotine sul

Do you serve the same foods in
the same way day after day without
benefit of change? If you do it’s a
great pity because cooking is much
more interesting if you vary your
dishes. Even such a simple favorite
as gingerbread can be varied In
dozens of different ways.
Gingerbread cup cakes filled with
whipped cream or with a cream
cheese are a pleasant surprise but
use the self-same recipe that you
would use for a plain gingerbread
ibaked in a pan. Add shredded cocoa-
nut to the gingerbread batter before
baking. Dates, raisins, nuts, candied
orange p6el, citron, one or all can
be added before^baking to make an
entirely different version’of the good
eld standby.
Cream Cheese Filling
One-half cup whipping cream, 1
package cream cheese, 4 tablespoons
chopped nut meats, 2 tablespoons
minced crystallized ginger, a few
grains of salt.
Work cheese with a wooden fork
until creamy adding a teaspoonful or
so of cream if necessary. Whip
cream until firm and add cheese,
nuts, ginger and salt. Use to fill
gingerbread cup cakes.
If .you omit the whipped cream,
this mixture makes a very good fill
ing for gingerbread sandwiches to
serve with afternoon tea.
THE NEW ERAINAGRICULTURERevolutionary Changes AreWrought By Farm Machinery—Pioneer Days RecalledIn Rotary Address.
The vast changes that have been
effected in fanning through the use
of labour-saving implements and the
part that modern farm machinery is
playing, in reducing the farmer’s
costs of production, were the high
lights in an address on “The New
Era in Agriculture” given before the
Rotary Club of Toronto last week, by
John Martin of the Massey-Harris
Company.
Mr. Martin, by striking contrasts
of production figures, brought home
to his audience the importance of
agriculture in Canada, showing that
the value of the fodder crops of
Canada for 1937 amounted to $138,-
1)00,000—whereas that for the total
gold production of Canada, for the
same year, was $143,000,009, or
•'practically the same amount for
fodder—just feed for horses and
cattle, as for the gold production of
Canada”, and that “the dairy pro
duction of Ontario and Quebec alone
.was $157,000,000 or $14,000,000
more than for the total gold produc
tion of Canada.”
“The Story ofthe development of
agriculture from the small clearings
of the pioneer days to the larger
acreages of to-day,” the speaker said,
“was largely the story of the intro
duction and development of farm
implements, and Canadians had play
ed a most important part in it.”
Exports Important to National
Economy
“Men like the Harris’s, Massey’s,
Wisner’s, Patterson’s, Verity s,
Uockshutt's, Frost & Wood, had put
Canada right in the forefront of im
plement making in the world,” he
said and told how the small plant
started in Newcastle by Daniel Mass
ey in 1847 had grown and of the
amalgamation w’ith the Harris Com
pany in 1891. How the business
spread to 52 countries of the world
and spoke of it as being as firmly es
tablished in the business of a score
of other countries as in its own
native Lind.
“As a result of its export business,
Massey-Harris,” he said, “in the ten
year period from 1928-1937, spent
in Canada $21,261,000 more than the
total of all its sale sin Canada, sure
ly a worth-while contribution to the
national economy of Canada.”
Removes Stoop* From Farming
“One of the oldest of callings,”
the speaker reminded his audience,
“farming had seen few changes
down through the ages until the
coming of mechanical aids. Now
change? take place with such rapid
ity that we do not stop to consider
the transformation that ha? taken
place.” Ho found £ ready means
of recalling what farming meant in
the pre-machine days by reference to
those famous pictures of the great
French Artist, Millet which still
adorn the walls of many homes—
“The Angelus,” “The Gleaners,” and
“The Man with the Hoe,” and point
ed out that they all had one signifi
cant characteristic and that was the
bent backs of the people working in
the field.
The full import of—“The Man
with the Hoe” he brought home
with dramatic force in the new lines
he quoted from Edwin Markham’s
now* famous poem in which he calls
on—“Masters, Lords and Rulers of
all L^nds to straighten up. this
shape,” but Mr. Martin added, /“each
step in the emancipating of the far
mer from this back-breaking, brain
deadening toil has come about by the
introduction of some new labor-
saving machine, and thus modern
farm machinery had done more than
all the Masters, Lords and Rulers of
all lands to straighten up this shape.”
Farm Production Costa Lowered
“Even with Canadian farming on
a higher standing than it had ever
been here or in any other part of the
world, it still had great problems con
fronting it, such as tne difficulties
of Western Canada with soil-drifting,
rust and grasshoppers; the low price
that prevailed for some of its pro
ducts, the disparity of farm product
prices with the prices of manufactur
ed products generally, and the prob
lem of dwindling export markets
for wheat and its consequent low
price.”
“But here again,” the speakersaid, “the agricultural ^engineer
comes to the aid of the farmer and
cited the development of the One-
.Way-Disc Seeder which combining
the various operations of tillage and
seeding all in one, avoided too much
ever cultivation of the soil and left
it in a matted condition which suc
cessfully resisted soil-blowing and at
the same time cut the cost of tillage
and seeding by at least 40%.
“In the great need for concentrat
ing on lower cost of production the
agricultural engineer had effected an
adaptation of the combine method of
harvesting'in the new small power
take-off combines which brought the
advantages of this most economical
method of harvesting within the
scope of the farmer of smaller acre
ages. A one man outfit”, Mr. Martin
said, “farmers last year told him
that their only out of pocket expense
for operation was the cost of gas
and oil which amounted to what it
would have cost for the price of
binder-twine alone, if they had used
the binder, thresher method, saving
the cost of stookers and threshing
crews, and the woman of the farm
was saved the* ordeal of cooking for
the threshing crew, etc.
“Tractors, too, had shown as great
improvements, especially in the re
duction of operating costs. Citing one
striking example in the new tractor
in the saving in oil alone, 5 quarts
instead of 12 being now required at
The Honey Bee, Its Value
(Experinmental Farm News)
The chief value of the honey bee
lies not in the amount of honey it
gathers but in its aid to agriculture
generally. The community in which
the beekeeper operates ofen receives
more benefit than the beekeeper
himself.
The importance of the honey bee,
particularly in the ear>y spring when
few other pollination insects are
prevalent, cannot be estimated;
later its importance in the pollina
tion of other crops, as small fruits
and clovers, is generally recognized.
The honey-bees are especially well
adapted to carry pollen. Their bodies
and legs are covered with hairs to
which the pollen grains adhere when
working the flower in search of pollen
and nectar for their own require
ments. Many of these grains of pol- i
len become lodged on the receptive
stigmas and fertilize the flowqrs.
Although the honey bee can scarcely
be called domesticated, its numberscan'Be controlled. Hundreds of hives
are moved yearly from one section
to another either to be placed in or
chards for pollination purposes or to
gather a crop of honey.
Over-wintered colonies of bees
have been used in the orchard of the
Experimental Station, Kentville, N.
S., for many years for. pollination
purposes, states E. D. Craig, Head
Beekeeper. * This orchard has never
failed to produce a crop and since
1930 has averaged an annual pro
duction of 100 barrels per acre.
Other orchards in which bees have
been used as pollinators, even
though the bloom was only medium,
have produced good crops although
the former crop ^histories of these
orchards with a similar bloom were
in many cases exceedingly irregular.
The habitat of the honey bee is not
confined to any particular zone but.
it is active from, the Tropics almost
to the Arctic Circle and the honey
produced per hive varies not with
the length of the season but with the
abundance of'flora and the length of
the day- Honey production is steadily
increasing in Canada.
a filling and of only needing to
change every 100 hours instead of
every 30 as heretofore. Saving as
much as $60.00 a year.
“Agricultural engineering was
working hand in hand with the far
mer in the solution of his problems
and in lowering the costs of pro
duction and so helping to put farm
ing on a more profitable basis.”
Mission Circle Play
y Highly Successful
Members of the Learn-To-Do-
Well Mission Circle of Trinity United
Church, presented their play, “Calm
Y’ourself,” in the Sunday School Hall
on Wednesday evening. The three
act cbmedy did more than call for
applause at the close of the final
curtain, it kept the audience in a
real good spirit throughout the en
tire evening and was a credit to tho
director, Bruce Barham and a per
sonal achievement for the entire
cast.
The cast of characters was as
follows:
“Fred Smithie”, a husband, John
Lockhart; “Fannie Smithie," his
wife, Doris Shuttleworth; “Lucy
Smithie, their offspring, Margaret
Bower; “Barbara Hanson,” a friend,
Helen Hawkins; “Harold Ainsworth”,
a week-end guest, Bill Hawkins;
“Jack Bird,” a visitor, Jack Van Nor
man; “Mrs. George Wonder,” a soc
ial light, Lois McClatchie; “Mr.
George Wonder,” a social tail-light,”
Howard Carr; “Hank Webster,'.’ a
limb of'the law, Don .Wilson; "Ev-
ans”, a maid, Marguerite Douglas.
An explanation of the play was
given by Mrs. Ewart Bartley. Be
tween the acts members of the C. G.
I. T. sold delicious home-made candy
and Mrs. H. F. Uren rendered de
lightful vocal solos which were much
appreciated.
Cheery Friend (to returned ang
ler)—“Caught anything old man?”
Angler (gloomily)—"Caught any

ARTHUR R. FORD
Y’S MEN’S SPEAKER
London Club Members Paid
Visit To Ingersoll Club At
Meeting Tuesday Night.
The Ingersoll Y’s Men’s Club
were hosts to the Y’s Men of London
on Tuesday night in a surprise visit
of the club from the neighboring
city. Arthur R. Ford, managing edi
tor of The London Free Press, was
the speaker before the combined
clubs at their impromptu inter-club
visit. Goodfellowship marked the din
ner meeting, held at the Ingersoll
Inn, after which the majority of the
Londoners remained for a social
time at the Community “Y” before
returning home.
Speaking on “This Troubled
World,” Mr. Ford introduced by Y’s
Man, Rev. Charles D. Daniel, out
lined the background of the -present
European' siturttioh. The creation of
the League of Nations, after the
Great War, and its subsequent down
fall due to various causes, were ex
plained, ns the speaker went on to
tell of the rise of Hitler and Musso
lini and "their threat to the peace of
the world. The factors in the Euro
pean scene were graphically told,
with Britain’s stand being strongly
defended.
The struggle is between democracy
and dictatorship, Mr. Ford pointed
out as he defined the principles of
democracy for which Britain has
stood for a thousand years. These
principles do not exist in Germany
today, he affirmed. Recent develop
ments were shown to indic^tb a pos
sibility that war would be averted, As
the speaker urged his audience to
stand firm by British institutions.
Democracy, he emphasized, is the
best system yet devised for the
government of man by man.
Y’s Man Cameron Bailey extended
the thanks of the gathering to the
speaker.

of his experiences, he says:—“For five years I suffered terriblyfrom rheumatic pains, and I beganto think my case hopeless. I alsohad a bad stomach, and I rarely had
a meal without my food repeatingcn me. One day an old friend told meto try Kruschen Salts. So I bought abottle and gave it a trial.“After some time I was able to
enjoy a good meal and to walkmore freely. One morning I got upand lit the fire, and my mother
thought I was crazy, because I sawedmy old crutches up and boiled thekettle for coffee with them. That was
six years ago, and I am now back at
my old job as a chef.”—'H. A. B.Do you realise what causes a good
deal of rheumatism? Nothing butsharp-edged uric acid crystals whichform as the result of sluggish eliminating organs. .Kruschen Salts can
always be counted upon to clear thosepainful crystals from the system.

The annual Vimy Ridge church
parade was held last Sunday at the
Presbyterian Church. All those who
listened to the Rev. Dr. Turner, were
well repaid. We were pleased to see
some of our Woodstock and Tillson-
burg comrades out. This speaks well
for the Ingersoll comrades, as the
Woodstock branch was holding their
service the same night. Opr Tillson-
burg comrades had also journeyed
that day to St, Thomas to attend ser
vice there in the morning.• « «
The general meeting of the branch
was held on Tuesday, and in the ab
sence of the president, Janies Wall,
who is on the sick list, the chair was
occupied by 1st Vice-President, S.
Crane. We were sorry to hear that
Comrade S. Steele, the 2nd Vice-
President, has had to resign owing to
continued ill health. The members
all wish him a speedy recovery and
hope that he will soon be able to be
with us again. At the*meeting Com
rade S. Smith was elected to office
of 2nd Vice-President and Comrade
Geo. Johnston was appointed record
ing secretary.• « « '
The Vimy picture presented to us,
has been framed and been on display
at P. T. Walker’s Store, and will
now be hung in the club rooms.
The branch adjutant has received
instructions from the Provincial
Command and these were read to the
members at the meeting. Although
we have not yet received any orders’
for men to report for duty, we are
ready to act as soon as such orders
are received. Anyone who has not
registered, if t^ey will get in touch
with the adjutant, F. J. Appleby, he
will be pleased to register them for
the emergency.

The Canadian Federation of Mayorsand Municipalities at its Annual Convention held in Ottawa last week,passed the following resolution unani
mously. The resolution was moved by
J. E. S. Lewis, Mayor of Ottawa,
and seconded by D. H. Elton, Mayor
of Lethbridge:—
“As Mayors representing the Muni-,
cipalities of Canada, we are con
stantly faced with public apathy and
the sort of criticism which carries
with it little sense of personal re
sponsibility. Such attitudes in the
individual greatly increase the diffi
culty of our task, and multiplied by
thousands of people all across the
Dominion, they create a state of
affairs in Canada which is far from
healthy.
‘If we are to deal with the prob
lems of our country, which grow
every day more involved, “we must
have an entirely new mental outlook.
Our urgent need in Canada is to
cultivate the will to work together.
For this, we must find again those
fundamental qualities of honesty and
unselfishness which are the founda
tion of a healthy democracy. As Lord
Baldwin has said, the need of the day
is moral rearmament, a programme
which builds on what unites people
instead of what divides them.
“Such a programme would bring a
whote new effectiveness to munici
pal life. We all know how in our
Councils the selfish interests of a
small minority, or even of one indiv
idual, can cause endless difficulty
and delay. Our task as Mayors must
be to lift the level of all proceedings
and all policy above personal ambi
tion, prejudice and party interest.If this is done, municipal executiveswill be able to devote their full energy to a constructive programme.
The sprit of moral rearmament in
the Council will in turn spread con
fidence and trust throughout the
community.
"Whxt practical outcome may we
expect from moral rearmament? It
shows how to prevent the disintegra
tion of human character through un
employment, as it provides the un
employed with a new incentive. It
would bring honest claims for relief
and a reduction of administration
costs. It would give to business and
industry an incentive higher than
personal gain, thus making co-opera
tion not only possible, but practical.
It means a fearless acceptance of
Christian standards of everyday life.
With such a spirit any system will
work. We must face the fact that
the fundamental problem today is
moral and spiritual, not economic.
Materialism has failed and the auth
ority and will of God must be accept
ed in public and private life, if our
problems are to be solved.
“The anticipated visit of Their
Majesties to Canada brings to our
attention the example of leadership
which they have unfalteringly set.
For them, leadership means constant
sacrifice in the service of their people.
This spirit must direct our policy and
inspire the communities which we
are elected to serve. We will then
be giving the best evidence of our
loyalty and devotion to Their
Majesties and to the principles for
which they stand.”

KIWANIS HEAR
HAMILTONSPEAKER
Dr. H. H. Brillinger, Clinic
Director of Ontario Hospital,
Hamilton, Addressed Ingersoll Club.
The Ingersoll Kiwanis Club at its
regular meeting on Thursday even
ing at the Ingersoll Inn had as guest
speaker, Dr. H. H. Brillinger, clinic
director of the Ontario Hospital,
Hamilton.
President Kiwanian Dr. C. A. Os
born, occupied the chair and Kiwan-
;;m F. r.;ul Johnston, introduced thespeaker.
In his remarks of the evening, Dr.
Brillinger said:. “Mental illness can
be cured and is being cured. A good
ly percentage of mental patients are
regularly being returned to their
normal places in life. The longer
that treatment is delayed, however,
the less is the chance of cure. There
is too much free advice being given
by well-meaning friends of those who
through fear, worry, depression, or
Jbecause of some other cause, are ap-
proaebihg peryous breakdown, as it
js called. The'e friends will tell such
a person to “snap out of it” or sug
gest some other equally ineffective
method, the result of which is often
harmful. The patient is in this way
often badgered and the net result is
that he or she suffers and becomes
worse by thus being deprived of
skilled treatment for a longer per
iod than should be the crjse.” Dr. Bril
linger contended that personal family
pride often deprived those suffering
from mental illness of having effect
ual treatments when they were most
needed—at the very first sign of the
symptoms. The speaker pointed out
that there was never any hesitancy
in mentioning cases of tuberculosis,
pneumonia or other of the many
maladies common to-day. The pat
ients were immediately given atten
tion instead of being hidden away in
a room and kept from institutions
where skilled treatment could be ad
ministered to bring them back to
normal mental health.
Dr. Brillinger declared that men
tal illness could be" prevented, by
building up healthy and virile men
tal processes in life that would ward
off the effects of strain on the aver
age person’s constitution, resulting
from overwork and indulgence.
A common contributing cause to
mental illness the speaker said, was
the holding of spite against others,
particularly in the same family.
Unhappy home relatipnships, those
with no goal, those with no employ
ment, those without any outlook for
the future, those unable to pay the
taxes or pay off the mortgage, were
mentioned as pathways to the break
ing point for many.
Skilled treatment in the early
stage, was, in the majority ^of cases,
able to clear up the trouble, the
speaker held. He appealed for a bet
ter understanding of mental health
work and urged the importance of
skilled treatment for all cases imme
diately they were detected.
On behalf of the club, Kiwanian
R. A. Stone expressed the members’
thanks to Dr. Brillinger for his
address.

SYNOPSISWhen the wealthy foster parents ofMarjorie Wetherlll both die she findsa letter telling that she has a twinaleter. that she was adopted when herown parents couldn't afford to supportboth of them and that her real nameIs Dorothy Gay. Alone In the world,but with a fortune of her own, sheconsiders looking up her own familywhom she has never seen. A neighbor.
her to marry him. She promises tothink It' over but decides first to seeher family. She goes to their address,finds that they are destitute and gradually sersuadex them to accept thingsthey fieed. When the doctor calls tosee her mother she notices that heseems particularly Interested In herBister. Marjorie goes to church inBrentwood, where her family used tolive, and becomes very much Interested in the young minister there, withwhom she later has lunch in the city.While at Brentwood she fees the homeher family formerly owned, buys itback for them and gives the deed to Itto her father on Christmas morning.
It was a long time before the Gayfamily simmered down to real life
again. Betty was just taking theturkey out of the oven and Marjoriewas filling the water glasses when
there came a ring at the door again.Ted went to open it and there stoodGideon Reaver with a small white
package in his hand. It wasn t tiedup in ribbons or seals like a Christmas present, though it looked asthough it would like to have been.It just had a rubber band around
^Ted welcomed the young man joy-
°U“(!ome in!" he cried as though
Santa Claus himself had appeared
at the door.“Oh, I mustn t, said Gideon smiling. "I just stopped in to leave this
little book for your sister. I toldher I'd send it over and this is thefirst chance I’ve had. Also I
wanted to ask if you folks wouldn tcome over to our Christmas service
-Uonight at nine o’clock."w' "Oh, come on in." said Ted, Iwant you to meet Dad and Mother.
You aren't in such a hurry you can’tstop a minute, are you?”“No. I'm not in a hurry at alH

stay but a minute. 1 just wanted to
make sure my patients were all rightand fit for turkey."
“You're just in time!" said Mr.
Gay happily. "Have you had yourChristmas dinner yet?”
“Well, no. I haven’t yet, but I'm
used to waiting. I’ll just look atMrs. Gay’s pulse and then I’ll be
moving on.""We’ll call it brunch then," calledout Betty suddenly from the doorway. “Come on, there’s plenty to
eat. You get the chairs, Ted. Theturkey is already on the table. The
more the merrier.”They all turned and looked atBetty’s gay face, so changed from a
moment before. Ted breathed a sighof relief, and the rest gave quickfurtive glances at the doctor.Mr. Gay introduced the ministerand the doctor and they studied eachOther a bit cautiously. But they were
both staying, there was no questionabout that.“Dinner is served!" said Betty,
suddenly appearing in the doorwaylooking very pretty indeed in Marjorie’s green knit dress with a bit of
red ribbon knotted in her hair and ascrap of holly on one shoulder.“It’s going to be a tight squeeze,friends, but we thought it was betterthan waiting to put another leaf in
the table and eating a cold dinner."Betty’s cheeks were rosy and hereyes were twinkling. She seemed
like a new Betty to Marjorie.The doctor, without waiting on
the order of his going, marchedstraight over to Betty and pulled outher chair, and then took the one
next her. Mrs. Gay smiled and tookher place where cushions had beenarranged at her back and feet. The
minister found himself seated between Marjorie and Ted. Then Mr.
Gay’s voice broke into the laughterof getting seated.“Mr. Reaver, will you ask the
blessing, please?"Marjorie stifled a quick look ofsurprise. There had been no askingof blessings so far in the meals she
had eaten in her new home, althoughshe reflected they had been most informal, and her father had generallyeaten upstairs with her mother. But
her heart warmed to the words thatwere spoken and she thrilled at thesweet silence that had settled over
them all. This minister certainlywas a rare one. How great for Ted
to have such a man for a friend!
the door, and there stood a tall haughtyyoung man."Does this happen to be number 1465
Aster Street ?" he asked.Ted nodded gravely."Is Miss Wctherill here?"“Wetherill ?’’ Ted hesitated and was
about to say no, then suddenly itdawned upon him again and he took
a deep breath like one about to relinquish something precious and an
swered with dignity:"She is." Then he added with whatwas almost haughtiness in his voice,
"Won't you come in?"Evan Brower stepped into the houseleaving the taxi throbbing outside, and
looked about the tiny hall, and theequally tiny parlor beyond, searchingly
like a warhorse out for battle.But Marjorie, her color perhaps atrifle heightened, came forward at
once."Why, Evan" she said pleasantly,
“this certainly is a surprise 1"She presented them one by one as
they were standing about in the doorway, and each bowed courteously, trying to veil their disappointment at the
interlade in their pleasant evening. ButEvan Brtiwer merely acknowledged
the introductions by a level stare ateach and the slightest possible inclination of his head."And won’t you come in and meetmy mother?" went on Marjorie blithe
ly, though she wasn't at all sure fromthe look in Evan Brower’s eye whether
he was going to follow her or not.Marjorie led the way to the couch,
and Evan Brower reluctantly steppeda few feet nearer and inclined his headagain at Mrs. Gay.
"I came," said he to Marjorie in arudely lowered tone, "to take you out
this evening. Can you get your wrapsand go at once? Will you need to
change ?"He glanced down at her prettyknitted dress with annoyance. This
was a part of finding her in this tittleinsignificant house in a common neigh
borhood, that she should not be dressedfor the evening! Christmas night and
in a daytime dress IBut Marjorie did not look embar-.rassed at his evident disapproval. Shelifted calm eyes to his face, and speaking in an ordinary tone that she was
not attempting to disguise, she said:“No. I'm sorry. I couldn’t go this
evening. I already have an engagement for later in the evening, and thisis nttr first Christmas tog-th.r 4
wouldn’t break it up for anything.”
i :icn he suddenly turned andcaught the look on Betty’s face as
she came into the dining room exactly opposite the hall door, withthe great brown steaming turkey on
its plain*Betty didn’t like him to inviteGideon Reaver in! Betty would besore! Now probably Christmaswould all be spoiled! Poor Ted!
He could hardly get through the introductions.But Marjorie came shining into
the room and welcomed the guest,and Ted felt better. Then his
father and mother were both very-cordial too, and Ted beamed,though conscious all the time of
Betty and the turkey in the background.Betty put down the platter andcame and stood frowning in the halldoor, but the frown suddenly died
down. Betty was surprised to findhow young and good-looking Ted sboasted minister was. She hesi
tated, wondering just t what to doabout the turkey, and as she hesi
tated Marjorie turned and introduced her.« "This is my twin sister, Mr.
Reaver. This is the one you saw before."And stWenly Betty was sweptinto the circle much against herwill. But he was interesting-look
ing, and she roused out of her annoyance and greeted him pleasantlyenough.
But Gideon Reaver had a lot ofintuition, and he had seen that tur
key.“I'm just delighted to see youall,” he said with a comprehensive
fiance which took them ail in, "but'm not going to stop now. I cantell by the delicious odors that are
going around that dinner is on thetable, so I'll just run away now andcome back another time and call if
I may. Fa- be it from me to delay aChristmas dinner!”
Suddenly the mother spoke up, almost eagerly it seemed.
“Why not stay and share it withus?" she asked. She had seen theeager look in her boy’s eyes.
"Yes, do stay," said’ the fatherheartily. “I know everybody will bedelighted.""Oh, I couldn't think of intrudingthat way. Indeed I couldn't. I was
just passing and thought I wouldleave the message."“But you haven’t had your dinner
yet, have you?” challenged Ted wistfully.*“No, I'm just on my way back to
my boarding house.""That settles it,” said Father.
“Ted go and see if there are enoughchairs to go around, and Betty, puton another plate!”
But suddenly the front door whichhad the night latch off. opened
"ajjain. and in walked the doctor."Well! pow. jipon my word, if Ihaven’t alked in bn . a party!" he
said. "I beg your pardon. I won’t
She seemed like a new Betty to Marjorie.
As the heads were lifted the doctorshot a quick keen glance at the
minister across from him. But itwas the minister who spoke first
"Do you mean to tell me, Doctor,that you can always tell which ofthese twins is which?” he asked
looking from Betty to Marjorie athis side."Well,” said the doctor, “I can
always tell that this one is Betty, butI'm not always a sure which onethe other one is I"
They all laughed heartily at that.It was a delightful occasion, and
everyone enjoyed it to the fullStrange to say neither doctor norminister seemed to be in a hurry toleave.
By thjs time they were excellentfriends, having discovered a numberof tastes.in common. The doctorhad Inquired where Gideon preached,
and Gideon had suggested that he'dbetter come over his way and open
an office. The doctor said he’d thinkabout it, and Betty told him theywere going to move back there and
needed to have their doctor handy.He said he didn't know but hewould look into it.
Suddenly Gideon turned around tothem all.
"Now, why don’t we have a littlesing? he said. "Christmas isn’t
complete without carols.”It was just as they were singingthe last line of "Silent Night." that
Evan Brower walked contemptuously up the narrow steps, and fail-
’jnR small insignificant,doorbell in the darkness gave athunderous knock on the door.
Coming as it did into the sweetness of that “Silent, holy night" oflong ago, it was somewhat of ashock.
Ted snapped on tlie lights and opened
"Reallyv Marjorie, I don't see thatyou are required to do duty all day
and evening tool” Evan’s tone was exceedingly annoyed.
"Well, I’m just as sorry as I can be,Evan, to disappoint you, but it’s quiteimpossible. If you had let me knowthat you thought of coming this wayI would have told you not to count
on Christmas at all as I had madeother plans.”And then Evin turned and- stalked
haughtily from the room without any
thing but the merest nod in Mrs. Gay’sdirection.
But Marjorie, her color rising and
her head a bit high, walked coolly tothe door with her caller.
‘Too bad, Evan, to have this ridefor nothing, but it just couldn’t be
helped," she said sweetly, and smiledindulgently upon him.
At the door he turned savagely uponher and said in a low growl:
“When can I see you, alonef In
the morning? Will you deign to lunchwith me?"
"Why, yes, I thinlj I could,” saidMarjone, considering.
"Very well, I’ll call vou on the telephone, What is the number here?
"Oh, we haven’t a telephone," sheanswered brightly as though that were
quite a usual thing in her circle offriends. "Suppose I just be ready
when you say you will come. Halfpast twelve or one. Which will be
most convenient for you?"
“Eleven I” said Evan crisply. "I’mflying back in the afternoon and I’m
taking you with me I Better have your
things packed and we can take themwith us where we lunch.”

JOOK at the others! Compare Pontiac! Then
* figure what you get for what you pay!
You’ll reach only One decision. The Pontiac
“Arrpw” looms above the rest in the lowest-
price field—a CARLOAD of Value! Think of
it—prices are down as much as $100 compared
with last year. Yet Pontiac offers greater beauty
— new distinction — added comforts and re
finements— improved handling ease—finer
performance—matchless thrift! Be fair to
yourself. Before you buy any car, be sure to
