Note also how Jesus emphasizes the mutual aspect of this relationship between shep- herd and sheep, "I know mine and mine own know me." Other Sheep, What does Jesus mean by the re- ference to'other sheep which are > pot of this fold? We have interpre-| ted it to mean that there are many who have the spirit of Jesus, who would desire to know him-and fol- low him, who have never heard of him, and who have fiever had the opportunity or who have never un- derstood the meaning of his teaching and appeal. These words have constituted great missionary impulses in the life of the church, but the respomse to these - impulses have been entirely inadequate. Suppose that we who have known Jesus were to speak and tell of him more freely and widely as the good shepherd, can we not believe that many who 'are now drifting abdut as sheep without a shedherd would welcome 'a place in his fold? family visited at Mr. Michael Her- mer's, \ A few cars are still running about here but have much difficulty in con- quering the numerous drifts of snow.

He was not sure whether it 'was a practical joke or whether the note was from someone who really Had an object in getting him out of town. He tossed about, recalling in se- quefice the swiftly moving events that had transpired since he came to Chicago, and trying vainly to un- ravel the plot that seemed to be weaving about him. Perhaps his father's acfual mur- derer, or someone who was involved in the crime, had learned he was in Chicago and feared detection if he remained. That sort of melodrama would never run him off, he told himself. His mind refused to work as he wanted it to. Invariably his thoughts would come back to Mary Lowell. It hurt him that she sholld cut him coldly without giving him an opportunity to explain the position she had found him in with Olgas Maynard. Why should people--es- pecially Mary Lowell--Dbe so ready to believe the worst of him? His jaw get grimly. Well. , .. . Back in Grafton, he went straight home to his mother's house, Her old sharp air and scolding manner were gone. In their place was an at- titude of resigned dejection. He knew without being told that she brooded; incessantly over Henry Rand's death. "Are you back home to James?" she asked while his were still sbout her. "No, mother. Just for a day. I've got to see Barry." Briefly he told her why, and she wept silently. "Where's Janet?' he asked. She had gone do the 'market ing, Martha Rand told him. Just then stay, arms he saw Janet coming along the old} familiar boardwalk, her arms Wi bundles. : She gredted him with a long kiss 'and clung to him, but she seemed cheerful and composed. "Fine, Sis. I've come home to ar- range with the district attorney for thie reléfise of a woman who may lead ps to the murderer. Sounds mysterious, doesn't it? And it is, too. It's got me all up in the' air." He told her of the progress they had made in Chicago. It seemed she had a job playing the piano In a moving picture theatre. Martha Rand sighed audibly as Janet told him. "Mother doesn't approve." Janet smiled at him. "She doesn't like - to hive me out in the evenings." "I don't either, Sis. Why did\you do it? You don't have to work. There's enough money to keep things going for quite a while without me. Besides, I'll be back home before very long. What does Barry thin of it--or don't you sed Barry any more?" i Yes, she saw Barry frequently. He didn't like her working one bit.

X Mother," he called x District Attorney Gilbreath was affability itself when Barry Colvin introduced Jimmy as his best friend, but a frown creased his brow when Barry explained what Jimmy wanted. "Impossible, Barry," he said. "De- tective Mocney was in to see me ast evening. From what he told me, is woman Olga Maynard, if she n't actually the murderer, is cer- inly mixed up in it.in some way. The only way we'll ever run on to her partner is to keep her until she wears out and tells on. him. They all do sooner or later. "I'm aboul ready to go to the grand jury now and ask for an in- dictment,"" he added. "We want her here in Graftoth!' "But you don't know"it all," pro- tested. Jimmy. He told Olga May: nard's story of the red-headed man who had taken her to the cafe: "He's the man that régistered at the Cad- fleld Hotel I'll bet my life on it." "Maybe that's all very true, Rand, but how do you know she isn't hold- ing back uis name? She might be afraid to tell on him." "She's telling the truth-I know it," Jimmy persisted.

Is it im- portant?" : He opened it and read it, then crumpled it slowly in his hand. "No Sis, nothihg important." He led Barry into the liviug-room, leaving Janet where she stooa. She looked at him curiously, then turned away. He threw the telegtam toward Barry. "Funny," Tie remarked, and sat down. "I don't get it, Jim." Barry Ss puzzled. He read it again: "Stay where you are." It was unsigned. HELP I YOURSELE .anyone in Ch "I don't get it myself, Barry. Lis ten."
