Rep/ecfje for War Savings TEA MARRYING MARK .... by Violette Kimball Dunn CHAPTER 20 Mra. Banwood's passion for the radio was now audible on the air. It was pleasant to sit there peacefully in the half dark and lis- ten to the beat of dance music coming from city canyons so many overheated miles away. The music was a little louder now. It came lilting through the night with Its haunting rhythm. Mark got to his feet and stood in mock formality beside her. "Like to dance this?" he asked. She swung her silver sandals to the terrace flags and faced him. "Love to, of course," she said. He took her in his arms, and they slid over the smoothly laid floor in silence. Lucy felt she had been waiting all her life just to dance with Mark. She was glad he didn't want to talk. Always, she thought, she would remember this night. She wanted to hold It tight, to let it sink deep, to be able to shut her eyes and live It all again when it was gone. The night, the bewitching little moon, the seent of the roses, and Mark'* arms. A Birthday Party Just before Thanksgiving, Val- erie had a birthday. Ten couples were asked for din- ner and dancing. Valerie invited Shirley too; but she declined, say- Ing she didn't believe In too many adults at a "children's party. Lucy was all for putting in a quiet evening in her own rooms, but Valerie's disappointment and Mark's dismay were so real that he- changed her mind. She and Mark had their dinner at a small table before the lib- rary fire. Valerie quailed a bit at the Idea of being left alone with a dinner party, but Mark and Lucy told her she might as well begin her apprenticeship as a hostess. As she grew used to the idea, she began to enjoy It. Mark received the youngsters who overflowed the place. The house was fulfilling itself for the first time, he thought, with a twinge at his disloyalty. \Vhe-n they had found their place cards, and had encircled the old oval table In the dining room, he went back to Lucy by the library fire. Dinner for Two The contrast between the> laugh- ing young mob he had left, and golden-haired Lucy In her peach- colored frock, waiting in the quiet room, struck him so that he stop- ped In the doorway to enjoy it. Ha detached himself from the do- mesticity he had come to take so happily for granted, and looked at the scene as a stranger might. Lucy glanced up, and caught the slight self-consciousness with which he came toward her. She* smiled at him, and everything swung into place again. He pulled out her chair, and Alice came in and began to serve their dinner. From the dining room on, the- other Ogden's is my brand! When an old-time roll-your-owner sees "Ogden's" on a package, he feels that it's been branded specially for him. For Ogden's is not just another tobacco but a distinctive blend of choicer, riper tobaccos with a flavour which has kept it a steady favourite for a quarter of a century. Buy a package today and then Ogden's will always be your brand.

They were just finishing their coffee, with a very special old liq- ueur In honor of the day when to their dismay, the draperies at Uie library door were pushed aside to reveal Eli.se in slim black vel- vet, a white ermine cloak off her very bare shoulders. She stood without speaking, her sultry eyes on the domestic scene before her. "So there you are," she said at last. Her voice broke a little shrilly as she canie Into the room. Mark got to his feet. He did a mental leap after his vanishing sense of hospitality. The woman was in hU house. It was almost as hard to remember as when he was a child, with unwanted guests thrust on him. Since she had met him at the factory gates. Wide Acres had been mercifully free of Elise. As a matter of fact, he had almost completely forgotten her. An Intruder She barely nodded to Lucy, who could scarcely believe that she was there. When Shirley had re- fused, it seemed Incredible that Elise had come uninvited. She slipped out of her coat, and drap- ed herself over a nearby chair. Her glance rested first on Mark, then Lucy, and last on the small table sitting so costly by the fire. "What a domestic scene," she said. "Isn't It?" agreed Mark amiably. "I hope I'm not too terribly la the way," she went on wistfully. "I never dreamed you'd be en- tertaining. I just felt so lonely on this dear home day, I longed for a glimpse of something real "Of course I'm frightfully em- barrassed." Elise seemed to be doing all the talking. "Dashing In on a party where I wasn't Invited. But I never dreamed with dear Ellen gone and all " "Don't be a goat," said Mark, angrily. "Anybody can see with half an eye it's only a children's party. Why do you suppose Miss Tredway and I are hiding here?" "I really wondered " mur- mured Elise. She was a little frightened after she had said it; but Mark gave- no hint that he had heard, and It made no difference whether Lucy had or not. "Valerie had a birthday a couple of days ago," explained Mark. "Ever since Shirley gave her a party, she has trotted about, and she wanted to return a fe>w invi- tations. No grown-ups allowed. Even Shirley did not come and she was really responsible."

CHAMBERS Seasonal Pumpkin As the time draws near to the season of Hallowe'en, that much beloved season of all the younger householders (and many older ones too), the attention is focus- ed on the golden pumpkin. Most people may think merely of pre- serving it in its simplest fashion, to use as a pie filling in the less fruitful days to come, but there are many interesting things which can be done with it and here are a few of them. Pumpkin Chips Pumpkin Sugar Lemons Ginger Peel and halve the pumpkin. Take out the seeds and cut into thick chips. For each pound of pumpkin allow 2 cups sugar and 4 cup lemon juice. Place chips in a deep earthen wars dish and sprinkle each layer with a layer of sugar. Put the lemon juice over the whole. Let this remain for a day; then boil together, al- lowing 1 cup water to each three pounds of sugar, 1 tablespoon bruised ginger tied in muslin bags, and the shredded peels of the lemons. When the pumpkin becomes tender, turn the whole into a stone jar and set away in a cool place for one week. At the and of that time pour the syrup off the chips. Boil down until rich and thick; then pour over the pumpkin and seal. This makes a delicious sweetmeat. Pumpkin Honey 5 cups sweet pumpkin 6 cups sugar 2 oranges Put some peeled pumpkin through the food chopper; stew and measure. Add sugar, grated rinds and pulp of the oranges and cook very slowly until clear. Pour into glasses and cover. Another method: Take ripe, yellow pumpkin and cut -in large pieces. Peel and scrape out all the stringy portions. Weigh the pieces and allow 2 cups sugar and 1 small lemon or orange to each pound pumpkin. Grate the pump- kin on a coarse grater. Mix w.th it the sugar and rind and strain- ed juice of orange or lemon. Boil slowly, stirring frequently and skimming if necessary, until it is smooth and thick.

Sidewheeler It is interesting to note that the first steamship in Canada, the Accommodation, was built in Montreal by Hon. John Molson, and was launched in 180y. She was a vessel of eighty-five feet in length and originally was pro- vided with berths for twenty pas- sengers. A steam engine of Kng- lish manufacture propelled her open, double-spoked, perpendicu- lar sidewheels. Her maiden voy- uge was from Montreal to Quebec on November 3, 180!>, which dis- tance was covoroil in sixty-six hours.
