"I'm perfectly se- rious, You sce, my sister Maxine and I were left orphans when we were quite small, and my grand- mother Horton has raised us both. Maxine is the elder, and when she was graduated from a school in Virginia, some friends wanted her to travel with them that summer. Gran knew the family well and let her go. While she was in Cali- fornia' she had an offer to go into pictures, which she accepted, That was four years ago. She hasn't been home since, Of course, my grandmother all but died. But Max- ine stayed and made good. She changed her name. Maybe you've heard of her, Maxine Truecheart." "Maxitie Trucheart! She's your sister? I think she's a honey, don't you?" . "I've only seen her on the scieen a few times. Gran won't let me go to movies." Harry's mouth and eyes opened wide in astonishment, "There was no quarrel about it, only Gran is even more particular about me, you sce." : © "What I don't see is how with all this chapcfonage, you've had much opportunity to know any man well enough to get so wrought up about him. Was it someone you met while you were at school?" Peggy's face became scarlet and Harry stared in amazement. A girl of his own generation was blushing! "It isn't any real man," she mur- mured. "Oh, I might as well tell you," she added impatiently, "I was graduated in June, and when I came home I kept getting . letters from the girls I had known at school telling about their good times, and of course I had nothing to write about. Then I began to write them about the parties that were written up in the little paper _ here, "According to my letters I went to all of them; boys were thrown in by the dozen. T'wo of the girls wrote me recently that they wére engaged. One of them ' was my roommate and we had planned to do everything together, Double wedding and all that, Well, like a nut, I wrote' back that no one knew about it, but that 1 was en- gaged too.

Only called him by his nickname. Needless to say I did the same. I said how sweet he was, and what a heavenly ring I had, and a lot of such bunk. Now laugh and tell me you never heard of anything so silly," "I don't sce anything about that to get so het up about." Harry re- plied. "Well, that's not the worst. This morning I had a telegram from my roommate saying she was come ing to visit me for a week, arriv- ing this afternoon; and I can't pro- duce a man, or a ring, or any- thing!" : "That is bad," Harry agreed.

I couldn't leave even ~ a pretended husband-to-be parked here on the road for a week. There's nothing to -it. I'll either have to confess the whole thing, or say I've broken off the engage ment, and listen to her rave about her fiance." * "Isn't. there something we can do?" Harry queried, thrusting his hands into his pockts and stretch- ing out his long legs in prepar- ation for thought, "I've got itl" he exclaimed jumping up suddenly, "Look!" bringing his hands from his pockets he held éne of them out to her, There was a small jew- eler's box in the palm. He opened the box and Peggy was staring at a beautiful ring with a star de- sign of sapphires set in platinum on each side of a large square cut diamond, "How lovely!" she exclaimed. "Yes, it is pretty, isn't it? I had it made in New York. But it's no good to me now. At least it won't be until I get home. Then I may try to patch things up. But you can have it for a week. I'm going to be in Lockton that long." "Oh, I couldn't," Peggy cried. "Thanks a lot for offering, but I 'couldn't use some other girl's ring." "Why not? She'll never know it. I know you'll be careful with it. You've got to take it. I won't have you embarrassed like that just over a ring when I have one right here that isn't being used anyway. Try it on and see if it fits." Hesitatingly, Peggy reached for the ring and slipped it on the third finger of her left hand. "See, it's perfect," Harry cried with delight, "Go on now, show that to your ex-roommate and let her laugh it off. I've got:to go on to make Lockton in time to play this afternon. I'll be back here af noon a week from today, I'll. meet you here and you can give .it back to me then" "But--why--I musn't take your- ring this way. I might lose it, or some one might steal it." "You arent going to think all that when you get your own en- gagement ring, are you? Well, why should anything be more likely to happen to this one than if it were your own? Don't be silly, But don't forget to meet me here next Wednesday, or I'll come charging up to the door and demand my property from your grandmother, Have a grand time this week "and tel me all about it Wednesday." Peggy was standing now, staring at the ring. "I can't begin to thank you. You're just a peach to do this for me, and I'll be here with the ring when you come back. Good luck at the golf, and I hope your real girl will be as thrilled to have this back as T am to have it now, It's the loveliest thing I've ever seen." Harry jumped into the roadster with its scarred windshield, which they had both forgotten, and drove away with a last wave at the girl who stood watching him disappear Reluctantly Peggy drew the ring from her finger. She must not let her grandmother sce it. She would put it on on the way to the sta- tion and explain to Nancy that Mrs. Horton knew nothing of her granddaughfer's engagement, Nancy would like that. She loved things to he mysterious, Peggy ré- membered. 'Harry had thoughtless- ly kept the box, so she was oblig- ed to tie the ring in the corner of her handkerchief, and stuff it into the pocket of her torn sweater, Peggy laughed.

Psalm 125:1, Memory Verse: Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good. "Psalm 136:1, THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time. -- David began to reign "over Judah about 1000 B.C, and "over the twelve tribes about 993 B. C. ' Place. -- Jerusalem is situated in the inheritance of Judah, mlid- way between the northern end of the Dead Sea and the Mediterra- nean. = David's 'Second Anointing "And the men of Judah came, and there they anointed David "king over the house of Judah, And they told David, saying, the men of Jabesh-gilead were they that buried Saul." This is David's sec- ond anointing, the first having been the secret one" at the hands of Samuel, - ' "And David sent messengers unto the men of Jabesh-gilead.. for Saul your lord is dead, and also the house of Judah have ahoin- ted me king over them." It is to the honor of David, that he re- tained, amidst these new and peri- lous conditions, his old tenderness of fecling and noble generosity. He thought lovingly of his once re- lentless but buried foe, and had respect for .the men who had striven to pay honor to the dis- honored body of Saul. People Unite Under David "Then came all the tribes of Israel to David unto Hebron, and spake, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh." All opposi- tion had ceased, the rivals of David were dead, and now the leaders and pcople saw it was to "*their- advantage to unite as one man under so valiant a leader a David. : David's Third Anointing "In times past, when Saul was king over us, it was than that led- yard 35-inch, dest out and broughtest in Israel « « «and in Jerusalém he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah." David the shepherd-king who had so faithfully led, fed and defended his father's sheep on the hills of Bethlehem became an equally faithful shepherd of God's~ people Israel. «< In behalf of the people in God's presence, a mutual agreement or covenant was made between them and David to be true and loyal to cach other David is now anointed for the third time. The City of David "And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites .... The same jis the city of Dav- id." The Jebusites felt so secure within their citadel that they boasted a garrison of the blind and - lame could hold it. Nevertheless, the city was taken, and from that time on is often called in the Scrip- tures the city of David, The Stronghold Is Taken "And David said on that day, whosoever smiteth The Jebusites, let him get up to the watercourse, and smite the lame and the blind, that are hated of David's soul Wherefore they say, there ate the blind and the lame; he cannot come into the house," David bids the men show no mercy to the scoffing Jebusites, The reference to, the word "gutter" possibly means the way the citadel was to be scaled. The besiegers were to enter by either by some water worn gully in the rock or through a subterranean channel which had been constructed to supply the fortress with water. David Grew Greater "And David dwelt in the strong- 'hold, and called it the city of Dav- from Milld' and inward. And David + axed greater and greater; for Je- hovah, the od of hosts' was. with him." So 'David waxed greater and greater', How could it be other- wise since the 'Lord God of Hosts was with him'? To have the Lord . with us is to be sure 'of growth, progress and victory.
