This then is what happens when a rich girl mar- ries her father's chauffeur. But surely their happiness hers and Dan's--their poverty their babies, their coming to the abandoned Pringle ranch, and Dan's new garage on the state highway to San Francisco. are realities that bind them, make them one forever and ever. Dulce and Dan return from their honeymoon. NINETEENTH INSTALMENT During the months before his di- vorce had been made final, he had spent his-time in going about among the eastern racing stables in the interest of the Napa stock farm, Dulce traveling with a con- venient aunt over pretty much the same route. They had been maf- ried on the very date of the de- gree, the aunt had vanished, and the traveling had been resumad on idyllic terms. Immediately Dulce had become her husband's shadow. Lying, ex- quisite, in bed, morning after morning, with her breakfast tray before her, she had lovingly de- manded his plans for the day. All right, all wonderful, but he must wait for her, In the Pullman drawing-rooms, in the taxis, in the hotel foyers and restaurants and bedroom suites, she was always at his side, Her pretty face peeped curiously up from under his arm when he talk- ed business at some stable. She wanted to know Dan's bet before she would bet herself at the race. She loved strange men and hated strange . women--which made him laugh at her. "Some day," she used to say to him, "some day, when we're older, when we've -had all this wonder- fulness just to our two selves, then we'll have just one beautiful lit- tle girl, shall we? But not yet! We must have our heaven all alone first. "Men don't really care for child- ren: they want their women al- ways fresh and sweet and ready to be loved, isn't that so, Dan? . It 1 gof ugly end pale, and there was a baby ¢rying somewhere--"' "Your're baby enough, you jea- lous little Mex!" "Well, then, kiss me." Everything ended with this com- mand. Politics, philosophy, science all led there. y For a while Dan devoted him- self to. the stables, Dulce putter- ing contentedly at his side. He rode heavily and badly, and Dulce and the other men on the place réde like vagueros, and that tem- pered his enthusiasm for the sad- dle. And shortly he discovered that Manley, the old overseer, was one manager in a thousand--that no one in the state was better quall- fied than Manley to make the most of the ranch and the stock. M came to him respectfully for authorizations, and: Dan tried to be original and intejligent in suggestions, but he had not been six months on the place before he knew that his job was purely orna- mental. 3 Meanwhile the town, which had welcomed him and his delicate, shabby wife so warmly to the old Pringle place five years earlier, was acting a Jttle oddly in the mat- ter of his second marriage.' The womén did mot call on Dulce, and although she went to the club sev: eral 'times that first winter, Dan knew that she sgnsed a coolness there. He began to experiment with fruit, trees, and wrote an article for an agricultural journal, Dulce was jealous even of the fruit trees. learned. with many a wiser man pefore him, that jealousy is as def a disorder as measles, and ble, Jously was 'him everywhere; he could ish a sentence without sen- at ghe had put her own construction upon what he had sald, When her mind was at ease, she was a utiful, vivacious, gener- ous woman, full of affections that were, ch ing even though obvious and 'quite! unspoiled, in the usual sense, by money. But her mind was not often at ease, Her world was honeycombed with possible ptions, coolnesses on rt, and each and every one m had to be proved a myth. 4: all this was done, he came confisedly to think-there was not mach of Dulce left, Twenty, thirty, forty little flare-ups a day were not too many for Dulce; she loved the actual quarreling only a little Jess than she reveled in the inevitable reconciliation, his--this handsome blond wo- man so daintily gowned and per- fumed--was that same Dulce, these were the same lips, the same voice, the same smile. She was his now, and she loved him far more than she had loved him in the old days. And he loved her, too--great Scott, why shouldn't he? She lived only to please him, ; Only--only it all seemed so dif- ferent. It was hard to go back and reconstruct _ motives under Lomita, with a devoted wife and a troupe of servants always at hand to spoil him, Dulce asked the Williams, the Roberts and the Cutters to dinner and they all came, and the event was a great success; Dulce looked her best, was gaily graclous and triumphant, and so demonstrative with Dan that he could not but feel just a trifle self-conscious, Mrs, Cutter, the spirited wife of Dulce"s business manager, was the only one of the three to say any- thing to which Dulce could take exception, and she said it to Dan. "I'm very fond of Cassy," Mrs, Cutter said firmly and quietly to Don. "She's on my relief commit- tee at the club for the factory fire sufferers, She's been a tower of strength." The last three words made Dan see her in a flash the brown, eager, resourceful girl whose slender fi- gure he had seen so often in dingy kitchens, answering the demands of stove, sink, table and babies all at once, He winced visibly at Mrs, Cutter's remark and hated her, even while he smiled gallantly and sald, "That's the sort of work she'd love!" Mrs, Cutter pursued the question no further. But suddenly Dan saw the truth: that only loyalty to her husband's business interests had brought her to Dulce' house, He wondered, grimly, how many other virtuous. smug women: in the town were likewise judging him. 'Mayonnaise?' he said sourly, to the waitress. "Marvellous," Dulce said instant. ly, from her end of the table, "who do you think"s running this dinner? She's going to pass it just as soon as the salad is served." Then, "I'm delling tales on us," she told him. "I'N bet you are." All Dulce"s talk tonight was of themselves and their happiness. They knew it was selfish, Dulce confessed, but they just didn't need outsiders; they were their own world, Everything had smil- ed upon them, and the reason for this felicity was invariably Dulce. Dan suddenly wanted to tell them all that he was going into b any busi The coal business, building, painting, or back into the garage--anything that was hard, real, uncompremis- ing work, and that would take him away from the too-sweet atmos- phere of La Lomita for long hours every day. These guests of theirs tonight, these dumb, limited, coun. try town people, evidently thought of him as a commoner, the boy of the garage, to whom his rich em- ployer had taken an older woman's sudden passionate fancy, The wretched mood of job-hunt- ing possessed him; he fancied him. self down in San. Francisco, walk- ing into offices, and asking lightly and indifferently for employment. Dulce highly disapproved of all this. "I can't see us in a California or Washington Street apartment. Dan: I'd be bored to death You'd be away all, day, and I'd have noth- ing in the world to do." Well he had no money worries, no health worries, and his wife was in love 'with him, He was among the happiest and most fortunate of men. If there were a few pin- pricks here and there, they were not worth considering; they only showed how soft he had grown. Dulce was perfectly happy, too. And then quite suddenly early in the third year of their marriage, it was over. He had been in love with Dulce, and he simply--wasn't. The glow, the glamour, whatever fit was that had changed this woman in the late thirties into a goddess, disappeared as swiftly as it had come, : Dulce was once more just a hu- men being, devoted, handsome, generous according to her lights, selfish. spoiled and as jealous as a tigress, He was caged with her here, in a perfectly unreal, luxur- fous environment on the top of a hill, and his every hour, his every thought, his every mood belonged to Ber, "Well, that's all right, too," Dan told himself philosophically, *Lots of men aren't so. crazy about their wives, But breakfast and dinner, and reading books and all the rest of it go right on, just the same." But he was still simple and un- sophisticated enough to be amag- ed at the suddenness of it all. He noted other cases just as surpris- ing even more spectacular in the papers. a He and Dulce were not as. bad as that, He still liked her enor- mously and she loved him; they were a long way from any confes~ sion of a change of feeling. Besides, there was loyalty, a man's loyalty to the woman who loved him, the woman he had ask- ed to ye his wife, "Nobody ever taught me any- thing about loyalty, when I was a kid," Dan mused, walking. through the warm autumn woods, upon a pathway of crisp. prickly, yellow oak leaves. "I guess I'll never learn anything. I'll live and die a rough-neck!" .

Director Robinson is hopeful that the two weeks period which his charges will spend in comp will result in something more than pur- ely physical benefit important as that may be. A carefully planned camp program, covering the whole period, is designed to give each boy entrusted to him practical assis- ance in his development as a poten- tial Canadian citizen. Sports are assigned to a generous share of the program, but wooderaft lite saving, carefully selected devotion. al excerises and training in useful arts are all receiving a proper share in each adys' activities, Of the twenty goys in camp, & majority are not swimmers, Mr, Robinson is confident that dally instruction under careful super- vision in the swimming pool, will put every boy well on the road to being at home in the water. Several of the older campers will try tests for life-saving certificates, but gpecial attention will be paid to seeing that, If possible, every boy will be able to swim to some extent when he leaves the camp, Regularity and neatness are in- sisted upon as the cardinal virtues of a good camper. Each boy is ex- pected to keep his belongings in shipshape order, to make his own bed, and to do his share of the simple camp duties providing wood for the cook, keeping the grounds and tents tidy, making his own bed, etceters, Early to bed and oarly to rise is the rule. The day is kept full of healthy, happy acti- vities, with three good, square meals tucked in at the proper in. tervals, Camp-fire is held down oy the creek in the early part of every evening, and then a crowd of healthily tired young Canadians tumble into bed soon after nine o'clock, Three tents provide sleeping quarters, with an older boy as leader in each tent. Bach young camper has an individual iron bed- stead, wth springs and a straw tick, and care has been taken to see that plenty of blanket are pro- vided for these cool July evenings, Kiwanian Jack Warrell can test. ify that the boys are getting enough to eat, He is in charge of the, '"commissariat department," the committee of the Kiwanis Club which -has been delegeted to do the purchasing of camp supplies, Over the first week-end, the boys made away with 35 loaves of breat, six pounds of butter, six quart jars of jam, and other things in lige pro- portion, Certain it is that when the sum- mer is over, those whose efforts have made the camp possible, will find an ample reward for their un- selfish labours, in the two score kiddies whose bodies have been built up and strengthened by open air life, and who have been given a definite impetus in their devel. opment. toward normal, active, Canadian boyhood and manhood, POPE HAS RECEIVED BISHOP OF KINGSTON Vatican City, aly, July 8.
