her frail sweet voice but very promptly mar- ian morgan had objected let sally read lucy we cant hear half that you say lucy colored and stammered smiling her nervous smile handing over the book 1 wouldnt be any good on the stage would i she tried to laugh i try to make my voice bigger but it just wont be begin that scene again mrs gallup sally read dramatically muri el muriels the wife isnt she no shes the polo players wife where was 17 oh yes muriel and wtiat if i told you that i hated you boyd you marian interrupted could do muriel sally your voice suits that part where was boyd lights a igarette wholl be boyd maybe bill would he wouldnt if we talked him into it just about the time the show was ready to go on a wire would blow down or a turbine go wrong r something oh heres stanley hello stanley listen to this part ind see if youd like to do it but there are several other ijiays lucy piped feebly they ent sbc on approval you might like some of the others better go on sally marian prodded well never get through at this i jte lucy held her breath while stan ey daniels took off his coat she iad maneuvered an empty chair and he glowed happily when he crossed he room and sat beside her i dont like this play so much he whispered i wish theyd read ime of the others sallys voice rose and fell dramat- t ally lucy sank into a happy iiimbness she was very tired and he was unimportant to this group md knew it and she did not greatly are so long as daniels was near he wondered if he would walk home ith her and nursed a jerk of panic or fear he wouldnt they had so nuch to talk over so much had appened at the mill and here the mall cold uncertainty that had tor nented lucy for days intruded gain had daniels been a little odd pi he mill a trifle on the defensive he hated harboring this uneasiness ut it would not down im an awful fooll lucy scorned lerself she made herself stop thinking tout it made herself stop looking ii the backs of his hands lean and lender and stained with chemicals lis cuffs were very clean he was ilways clean closeshaven jaunty he tried to listen to the play but t was stupid and too sophisticated or a village audience she decided sally read gaily on oh listen 1 love this muriel says why do e seem always to fall in love with le wrong people why does love o blundering through the world reg nothing else blunders not aeath nor trouble they go straight to the mark but love gets it j lost finds itself in strange places where it was never meant to be 1 think thats a gorgeous line why dont ue just decide on this play and send the others back its so talky marian argued muriel is a good part but that pam shes washy i think nobody could make pam appealing you could especially in this scene with greg that weepy thing you know i cant weep and pam is always surrendering maybe english worn en surrender so grai efully but i couldnt and we havent anyone to play greg why not ask that new man he s brand looking he wouldnt be interested mar- tan said aloofly you mean lucy was thinking you wouldnt be interested in hav ing him the meeting ended at nine after some squabbling with no decision arrived at i must go sally said bills playing pool he always loses and hell get bored and mad after an hour of it and we have such 8 ghastly long way to go lucy was nervous as she put the plays back into the envelope stan ley daniels helped her on with her coat but he sa d nothing about walk ing home instead he crossed the room and began talking to the oth ers luc- s heart went down with a sick thump thnngh h itt effort at

will he said dryly he tramped down the stairs and stanley daniels heard the door slam daniels stood still for a long min ute iii a cigarette and let it go out then snatched up his hat the air of the room was suddenly stifling he pounded down the stairs in the parlor with the asparagus ferns the everlasting rummy game went on three salesmen were play ing slapping down cards laughing loudly the fourth player was bran- ford wills daniels stared nrort want eat quickly so he was spying was he the heel the interloper a surge of fury burned through daniels body then chilled leaving him with a

oewmataea we may read all about the enforo- ed curtailmflnt of the nanufactuw of motor cars in another we got the details of the inoontenienoe of enforced shorter hours in which we are allowed to purchase gasoline la still another column we read all about the drowning accidents that have oc curred over the weekend if we were to ask you which of these three col umns doesnt belong tn the same group as the other two chances are ou would say that ft would be the one aoout the drowning accidents that would be the odd one we arent o sure that reply would be correct dur ing the last twenty five or thirty years we have spent all kinds of money on cars on gas and on oil and other accessories for them again we have provided our millions for paved roads for these care to run on it was all very nice weve become familial with almostevery beauty spot in on tario and all because of these motor cars but while we dug up these mil lions for cars and for paved roads we neglected to dig up even a few thous ands for decent swimming pools for our boys and girls to learn to swim in had we spent a little less for cars and roads and a little more for swim ming pools chances are mahy of theae drowning accidents would never have occurred or again notice how easy it is to dig up 165 for 5allans tf gas but try to collect a few dollar to organize a girls softball team for instance and see where you land cars are alright getting out in the fresh air is necessary becoming better ac quainted with the beauty spots of the province is all to the good but boye and girls are still worth more than them all put together perhaps some day we may learn to value them at their true worth v v v it was eight years ago last week that we first started writing a newspaper column we had no license to write at all we had been interested in the manufacture of bread ever since we were sixteen years of age and it might be difficult to think of another business farther removed from that of writing for publication howevet we liked u write and it soon became a habit not unlike shav ing every morning or of winding up uie clock or putting out the cat last week s herald contained a word of appreciation and along with it the statement was made that they didnt always agree with our opinion and mentioned pirticularly that we had ertevted that we would welcome a return to unwrapped bread we get more kick out of anyone disagreeing with us than we would if they handed us a pat on the back that is one reason that this war is being fought in order that we may all have an opinion of our own and that we can state that opinion without fear of being shot however we would like to explain our stand in regard to the wrapping of bread a1k flour contains certain bacteria which withstands baking tem perature in fact during the time that the bread is in the oven this particu lar bacteria is merely getting its toed warmed up as it can withstand double baking temperature bacteria needs fresh air just as much as you and i do and when bread is enclosed in ail airtight wrapper conditions are some what similar for this bacteria to that of being confined in an incubator the result is of course that the flavor of the bread is affected and if left too long we have what is known as ropey bread the odor of the bread is changed from that of the nutty wheat like i flavor to that of an odor similar to a mousey peachfuzz flavor and 1 it ever nauseating wrapped bread does seem like a sanitary way of handling bread and it does keep moist longer when wrapped however un til somebody invents a wrapper that is more porous and that will allow the entrance of some fresh air we will be sticking up ifor unwrapped bread v v v there have been a good many in teresting visits and visitors these last few weeta usually these visits and visitors are announced 111 the personal columns however the visits and visitors that we have la mind have been kept very quiet of course we have reference to the win ston churchill and president roose veil visit then the duke of kents visit to canada and as though that wasn t enough there was the visit to the old country or prime minister mackenzie king most of t visits were kept quiet until- after- they had at least landed in the country visit ed and all on account of the war now a group of ten canadian journa lists are either going or have gone to england and among them none other ft than our friend hugh templin of th fergus newsrecord writer of those interesting articles that have been ap pearing in the herald each week about the royal canadian air force these journalists are going at the invitation of the british council who ask that ten working journalists spend three weeks in britain to see the prepar ations for the defence of the island their expenses are being paid by the british government we mentioned in this column a few weekp ago that hugh templin gets around a good bit but at that time we didnt have a trip of this kind in mind well be inter ested in hughs accounts of what he sees over there and so will a good many others some fellows have all the luck or as somebody has stated opportunity comes to those best pre pared cur
