When they pulled into the garage. Honey hop- ped out of the car promptly and ran ahead to the house. As it wa« very late, she went at once to her room, but not to bed. She knew now why Mrs. Riba's eyes had seemed so familiar; why they had disturbed her ever since early evening when she had met the woman. They were like Joe's. Mrs. Riba, of course, was the sister he had spoken of vaguely at times, but he had always given the impression that she lived in some foreign coun- try and that he seldom saw her. But that was like Joe â€" ne'ver let- ting one know anything definite about him or his family. She had gone around with him for months, and yet, she knew nothing tangible of his life; she could only guess, and up until recently, she had not dene much of that. She had merely coasted along, intent on one thing â€" the diamond, and how to get her hands on it. • • * . "Why did he have to come here of all places?" she demanded of the four walls. "Why couldn't his sister live in San Diego or New York?" She walked the floor treading lightly in her stocking feet so the ^others would not hear her. She must not fall into Joe's hands under any circumstances. The love he rfelt for her would not keep him from being utterly cruel in trying to force from her the whereabouts of the dianioiul. However, he would never get the stone; she was certain of that. She would die at his liands before slie would tell him where it was. "He shall never have it!" she vowed to hersejf. "And he may not kill me until he does. But Joe knows ways of torturing his vic- tims that would be worse than death. And I will be no exception." She shuddered and it was not from the cold, damp air which blew in from the Pacific. It was stark, naked fear of the future that sent wave after wave of sliivera over her slim body. Tears came to her eyes. "I don't want to die," she sobbed and fell on the bed. "I want to clear myself with Dan. He must know tliat I am not a thief and believe in me once again." ♦ ♦ It was nearly dawn when she finally drifted into jleep, only to be awakened again by insistent knocking on her door. She opened sleepy eyes, then gat up startled. "Who is it?" she cried, heart pounding excitedly. "Let's go fishing," called Art cheerily. "Fishing?" she repeated as if iht had never heard of the sport before. "Ohl Fishing." She relaxed. "Is it time to go now?" "Sure it is," he told her with an aninsed clnickla.

By Rev. R. Barclay Warren The Boyhood and Youth of Jesus Luke 2:39-52; Mark 6:3ab. Golden Text â€" The child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon him. Luke 2:40. From infancy until thirty years of age we have only one picture of Jesus. But that one tells us all we need to know. Jesus was a real boy. Joseph and Mary travelled /or one day in the large caravan before they were alarmed about his absence. Can't we hear them as- suring one another that he was with one of his chums and would join them when camp was pitched?! His evident humanity is further empha- sized by the question of his neigh- bours years later, "Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us?" But Jesus was different, too. To attend the Passover Feast for the first time hac been a thrilling ex- perience for him as it was for all boys. He was now a "son of the law." But for him it had a deeper mLoning. His understanding aston- ished the teachers of the law. His answer to Joseph and Mary when they found him in the temple indi- cates a consciousness of a .divine mission, "Did you not know that it is my duty to be engaged upon my Father's business?" ♦ ♦ * Jesus was an example even in boyhood. He went with Joseph and Mary and was always obedient to them. Much of our juvenile delin- quency can be traced to the failure of children learning to honour their parents. The child who doesn't learn to obey his parents will be a problem in school and in the social order generally. The cruel parent is the one who fails to train up the child in the way he should go. Jesus was sinless in boyhood. Tempted as others he yielded not. H was the perfect life. Remote Control Two Hollywood kids were (alkr ing as they walked home (toot school. "I've got two little brotis- ers and one little sister," boasted one. "How many do you have?" "I don't have any brothers and sisters,'' answered the second Ud, "but I have three papas by my firat mama and four mamas by my last. papa!" • Answer to This Week's PunU UIAI6H/: \L\o\i4\smA\tAÂ¥ uUU BOmUUk QQD „ mmna sEaoQ \mA\p\p\£ W^ L £\S 3DH QDOBn scr £^>» P P £ Ml o S S h\£ T A â- s P A hfA 1 T 1 ti T 1 9QEa mumuu mn 1 -*â- i / HANDY V ilBOXES/ ISSUE % â€" 1949 ^•^^i^ Beef Upside Down Pie « * IH cup« flour 1 tap.
