He had married----or been captured py 'penhilesd, cool-headed twenty-year Old Horace, whose first wife had Lim all a man could ask of the pers fect wife, had been dead three years now. There was a stepson, and prep schools and latterly in college, because boys bothered her. Once in a while he came home, lanky and bewildered and silent, but not often. Nina annoyed him as much as he did her. Helen, who was sorry for him, tried to mother him, Helen crossed the wide hall, with its beautiful winding broad balus- trade, to the room on the right, the drawing room. Nina was there sure enough A taut little figure, wirily alive. She was just throwing her smartly plain bag on one chair '8141 her smartly severe hat on ane other, Nina would have casually cluttered up a Pyramid if she had happened to live in one. She dropped the flowered chiffon jacket as Helen entered, throwing up her bare arms with a sigh of relief, * "Qraclous, it was hot! And that crasy idiot of a Grace Mannering had us play on the veranda, instead of in the col house. Sort of miscal- culation she would make." You couldn't help liking Nina.

He was a darling to me, He gave me everything I wanted. Sometimes, of course, Ronny was a little of a bother, but after all between boys' camps and school there hasn't been much to that. A step-son is much stepdaughter." "What do you hear from Roane ny?" Nina frowned "Nothing very satisfactory. Writing poetry, cute ting his summer school classes-- I do hate impracticable people! I told him that if I heard any more bad reports from him I'd cut of: his allowance." Ronny was something of an enigma to most people; mostly sil ent, bursting into occasions: flares of passionate talk about ade stract rights and wrongs; a tragic Shelleyan young face, and a ca pacity for being shut up inside hime. anybody else's, she was a delight- self which worried frank talkative ful person, with the evenest' Tem... i .

Interlude" (after all these years") has come to town, the Lon- don theatre season seems finally to be getting hold of itself, This is a better idea than you may think, for up to now there has been a disquieting series of Arab-like plays which turned up for a few nights and then stole silently to unblessed graves. ; Thus "Strange Interlude" came like a lumbering St. Bernard in the Alps (with freud instead of brandy, of course) to rescue critics and set soci- al and "intellectual circles chattering Mary Ellis, as Nina, enlists more sympathy than her character's life deserves; so much so, in fact, that the gallery girl who used to screen "Tallulah, you're wonderful" to Miss Bankhead, changed her cry to "Mary, your marvellous" on the first night. But if O'Neill's play is London's most important, it. must share hon ors with a typically English piece, "Tantivy Towers," by A, P. Herbert and Thomas F, Dunhill, "Tantivy Towers" is an operatic satire, very much in the Gilbert and Sullivan tradition. It brings into contact and contrast Arty Chelsea (London's Greenwich Village) and "county" people, who mostly hunt foxes, Herbert's witty lyrics are its chief charm. When fox-hunting Charles, who lives at Tantivy Towers, inspects modern art in unfamiliar Chelsea, for example, he sings; I don't know about art and all that, | But I know what I like and I tell you, Miss Jay, I don't like young women so flat." And again: Was Sheba the Queen, who made Solomon gape, A collection of parallel lines? Was Juliet just an elliptical shane, With a few geometrical lines? Paint peonies green And I see what you mean, Paint eyes like an ostrich's eggs But is it the case, That the girls of our race, Have such very triangular legs ? I: Hat! Ha! Ha! Ha!

Horn, Correspondent) Hampton, March 16 = Rev. J. R. Bick conducted the Young People's Meeting on Friday night in the ab- sence of she Missionary Vice Pres ident, Nora Kerslake, Following the opening exercises, Mrs, Roy Knox took up the devotional period. The topic for the evening was taken up by several of the League emmbers. Wilfred Greenaway, gave a very in- teresting map talk on Northern Al-, berta, Helen Knox and Marjorie Pas- coe, gave papers on the subject for discussion, and a short play was giv- en by Bert Sinart, Raymond Burns, Austin Barron, Bloyd Wilcox and Stanley Cowling. Lillian Jebson fav- ored with a vocal solo, accompanied by N. Horn. Several Missionary hymns were sung during the meeting which was concluded by the Mizpah benediction. Plans are being made for the annual Easter Concert under the auspices of the Young People's League, The annual thankoffering services on Sunday were well attended. Rev. Wm, Stirling, Orono, occupied the pulpit at the morning service taking for his text the words of Genesis 17th chapter and 18th verse also the 21st chapter and 17th verse: "And Abraham said unto God, O That Ish- mael might live before thee" "And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar? Fear not, for God hath heard the voice of the lad where he is." The music by the choir was much appreciated choosing for their anthems. "O that men would praise the Lord," in which Mrs. GC W. Souch took the solo work, and "Just as I am." Messrs. Lewis Cry- derman, 1neo. Salter, Will Wilbur, and W. W, Horn, sang a quartette "I belong to Jesus." At the evening service, Mr, Stirling chose. for his text the 26th verse of the Sth chapter of Daniel: "This is the interpreta- tion of the thing: Mene; God hath numbered thy Kingdom and finished it" The choir again assisted in the service of song with the anthems, "Son of My Soul" and "Let There Be Light." The quartette also sing- ing "The Beautiful Garden of Pray- ar," Mr, Stirling also spoke to the Sun- day School in the afternoon, his splendid services for the day being full of inspiration and helpfulness. Mrs. Roy McGill and mother, Mrs. Chas. Langmaid, and Mrs, T, McGill, Enniskillen, were guests at dinner, with Mr, and Mrs, Silas Williams on Sunday, * Nora Kerslake, Toronto, spent Sun- day with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Kerslake, Although the large amount of snow which fell a week ago, has been somewhat diminished, the latter, part f the week, we were favored with a few more local snow flurries on Sun- day and Monday.

The usual hymns were used and the east half of the room | repeating the first half of the 19th Psalm and the west half repeating the last half of the same Psalm. After this a short lesson period was held, when Mrs. James Smales, one member of the mis- sionary committee, took charge of the missionary programme, Mr. Isaac Hardy, in a very clear cut manner, read an interesting ar- ticle on the Indians and the work among them in Canada, especially in the northwest. Mr. Alan Dal- son then favored with a splendid solo, "Your Best." Mr. Alan Mc. Kessock then closed with prayer. Rev. Mr. Bick preached a thought- ful sermon and the choir pang "Bring Sunshine," as an anthem. Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Hardy at- tended Mr, James Reeson's sale on Thursday at Columbus, Messrs.

The snowbanks at Solina are fast disappearing and mud is com- ing through in lots of places, so with so much snow in spots and so little in others, it is hard to know just what sort of vehicle to travel with around these parts. Messrs, Thos. Baker and Gordon Leask made a business trip to To- ronto on Monday. Don't forget the Women's In- stitute meeting this Thursday, March 19th, Roll call , my pet su- perstitions.

Young Cameron, it is said, was endeavoring to cross from the north to the south side of the highway when the accident occur- red. Mowers was travelling east toward Bowmanville and as he saw the child running across the road he is said to have applied his brakes and swerved to the north. But the youngster slipped and fell and the motorist had no chance to avoid hitting him although the turned so sharply to the north that his car almost ran into the ditch on the north side of the highway, The ear was badly smashed. Medical aid was summoned and the injured child was immediately rushed to the hosnital, Hizhway Traffic Officer Hawkshaw, of Bow- manville, investigated the accident and attaches no blame to the drive er.
