GORDON TO MY MOTEL 'opyright, 1916, by the McClure Newspaper Byndicate). I had no intention of taking ad- vantage of Arthur's volunteered per- nission for me to associate with Mr Gordon and other friends as much as | wished. After my conversation wit! my admirer at the X Club, I had' decided that it would be better for- me and for him if we did not see cach other more than could pos- sibly be avoided. With this in mind I refused several invitations from Mariam, who apparently was un- aware of the depths of Mr. Gordon's affection for me, She knew that he admired me, for he frankly told her go, and by his inquiries of -me he showed his niece that he enjoyed being with me, but Mariam was too young and innocent to realize the] real significance of his feeling to ro me. She had not yet reached the. age of enlightenment with ref erence to sex attraction or rather she had not reached that point of sex development which enabled her to distinguish that form of attraction from another "orm Had she known her uncle was in love with me and would not "have hesitated to take me forcibly from Arthur if 1 had permitted him, she would have been horrified She belonged to that class of young wo men who, either from natural in nocence or from circumstances of rearing and disposition, look upon matrimony as the sealing of an ir- revocable compact I held the same the average reader of these confes sions Unfortunately there is an other class of young women and young men--and older men and wo- men--who,do not regard matrimony as more than a way. station on the road of personal pleasure, or enjoy ment. If either demands it, they will move on t&® the next station which, in this figure of speech, means anothér marriage. Mariam's desire to have me with! her, therefore, was purely a selfish | one. She was lonely and wanted someone to amuse her. 1 had at first determined that I would not per- | (mit either Arthur's attitude toward | Mr. Gordon or Mr. Gordon's feeling toward me to interfere with my friendship for Mariam, but 1 found | that difficulties lay in the way of my association much with Mariam | without meeting Mr. Gordon, for she | had recently acquired the habit of | meeting him down town for luncheon | It was on such occasions as these | that Mariam gave me several invita- | tions, but I managed to find on ex- | cuse each time. ' However, matters , were-reaching the point where, if il Arras [ g RIT teofitinued to decline, our friendship 'are laughing at me, but you ought to lghall we come?" liam "1 can scarcely hear you." fup Uncle John, {again he woud see to it that you had NS OF ROXANE gn ght be jeopardized. With this in w I telephoned Mariam the day after my conversation with Arthus and asked her to take luncheon with me at my hotel, "Oh, I'd love to," she réplied. "but I have told Uncle John I would join him for luncheon to-day. "But 1 have an idea," she. con- tinued brightly. "Let me bring icle John with me to the Lorelle. Wouldn't it be fine to ent 'ain a man at luncheon?" : > What was I to da? I cwld not refuse to receive them, yer there were many reasons why I did not wish to have Mr. Gordon as my guest- at the hotel. Mariam noted my hesitation, but her next remark showed how far she was from under- standing the case. "Oh, you need not be afraid he will come," she assured me cobn- idently. "He has become very meek lately He does everything I tell him nowadays." I was compelled to laugh.' It is true," she prostested. "You, see the way 1 lead the poor man about. You would think he was ome helpless person. 'But he is not. it ie just because he never has had anybody to love until he found me, and now he is spoiling me by doing everything I want him to. What time I mumbléd a reply. "What is the matter with your telephone, Roxane?" inquired Mar- "It seems to be all right." "Will then, I wil ring off and call He will be delighted, He asked me this morning at break- fast if I had heard from you, and wanted to know where you had im- prisoned yourself. He said to tell you that when we went out together a more enjoyable time." A more enjoyable time? 1 under- stood the significance of the remark. He meant to assure me that he would not talk about the one subject which was uppermost in both of our minds when we were together 1 would take him at his word and try to treat him as I might any other friend But what would Arthur say when | he learned I had entertained Mariam {and her uncle at the Lorelle? Would he forget what he told me about | seeking pleasure and become angry, ! or would he pass the incident by un- noticed as a result of the business strain under which he labored? I had heard of men who became so de- | voted to business that they cared little or nothing for what happened to their wives or children. Was Arthur headed in that direction?

Our, Ottawa contemporary does not make it clear just what is the "lesson to public men of both political patties." We always thought that Roblin's mistake was in looting the public' treasury. We are now told that the people would stand for in the "crudeness" of their looting and their 'second story methods." What does Canada want, anyway? More honest public men, or more refined and expert public thieves? If the latter we would suggest that Premier Borden start an institute at Ottawa under the joint patronage of Sir Sam Hughes and Hon. Robert Rogers, and with John Wesley Alli- son in charge, with the object of overcoming some of this ness" that has aroused public in- dignation more than the actual theft.
