DOROTHY TROWBRIDGE CHAPTER XV "Oh, dear, I wish so too," Peggy cried desperatély, She didn't 'tell Maxine of Stanley's hope ta have it by late afternoon. That didi not seem very promising now. Why. hadn't he waited until later to go in: town for his bags, and stayed here and, looked for the ring? That ring, is a hoodoo, she thought. First 1 bend it, then--"Maxine, into town. Never mind why, I'll be back soon." She ran to the kit- chen to tell William to get her the pony cart, and in a few min utes was driving rapidly down the road toward town with her hopes running very high, But she returned home and hour and a half later more in the depths than ever. The ring that she: had suddenly remembered Mr. Carver was making like Harry's, had al- ready been sold when she reached: Marshville. "I wanted to sce the ring you were making," she had told the old man. "Well now, Miss Peggy, that's niighty sweet of you to be that in- terested, and I wish you could have seen it, But it's sold already. I worked right straight through on that ring from the time I started on it yesterday, Jim said I was crazy. He wanted me to take my time at it, But once 1 get started to work on a thing like that, I've just got to. keep. going and get it finished. And it certainly was a beauty. As much like that ring of I just had it finished and was standing here admiring it, when in ""comes a young man and buys it right offi Some girl surely is going to be happy to have that ring." ' « & = She had been so sure she had! found a way out that to discover she was too late was about the last straw. Why on earth hadn't she thought of it. saoner? "Where is: everyone?" she asked Maxine on her returrn, -° "Nancy is still upstairs. Gran came down about the time-Stanley returned and' he asked her if he might talk to here. They have been shut up in the parlor ever since." "For heaven's sake, why?" Peg- gy demanded. "He doesn't think Gran knows anything about it, does he? She certainly seems to like him; Maxine: I was awfully: sur- prised, weren't you? Gran andi a detective!" There was a-:udden sound in fhe uppper hall.

It was. only Nancy rushing out to them on the terrace with: a. motion picture magazine-held open in her hand. os ® "I suppose that was meant to be funny!" she snapped at Maxine as. she passed her and handed the mag= azine to. the astonished Peggy. ~ "Here is a. picture: of your sister's Mr. Newton," she told her as if Peggy could fail to recognize the face: that was smiling at her from the: page: " 'Mr. Stanley New- ton," Nancy read aloud, "'one of 'the youngest and most outstand- ing 'directors of the motion picture industry. today.

I had not known he was coming, and was 'surprised that he had found out my home address. But it did seem an excellent way for me: to see him, and it really was awfully important, I thought the ring would be found anyway, I'm sorry," she faltered as Peggy and Nancy both eyed her in silence, « + = "He came' here to see her, of course.

Gran was on her way upstairs, Maxine and Nancy started towards them and Peggy slipped away from © them quite unnoticed. Without: thinking where she was going. Peggy ran through the rose. garden and into the summer house, This. was, where: she had always come with her trorubles since she . was a child, « 8 8 It was here that she had come when Maxine had written that she was going to remain in California. And:it was here that she came now when she was unhappy about-- about Stanley not finding the ring, she told herself, What had he been saying to Gran this afternoon? Had he told her about the engagement, and that the ring was here? But even as she thought of that she dis- - missed the idea, He would not do that, she: knew. What was she unhappy about? What. more: na= tural than that Maxine's director in love with' his star and follow her home in order to be: be-with her? He had not spoken a word of 'love to her, Peggy, ana it she had been foolish enough to imagine. things: from his; tone, and expression--well it. was just too bad. } He had only been glad for the family when she told him she would give Harry back his ring, Of course he had been glad. He wouldn't * want Maxitie's sister to do anything foolish, And she had been count- ing the minutes until six o'clock when. he would bring: her the ring. And now it was--she glanced "at her wrist watcth--it was two min= utes to six, and he was probably in the house laughing with 'Maxine at the joke they had put over on them, But he wasn't in the house be- cause just then she saw him come out of the front door, pause a mo- ment there to look towards the rose garden and then start down the wouldn't be here if he came. She didn't want to hear his explanation, She didn't feel like laughing over the joke. She wanted the. ring to give back to Harry and then she wanted to forget men.

Clarke of GINGER FARM - - . - 2) Sometimes when big events are taking place this writer finds her- self on the spot. To even mention anything of a political nature is to invite controversy; not to men- tion it looks as if: I am not in- terested. Perish the thought! I am interested -- intensely so. As for Partner, his concern government affairs is so real that he gets quite "edgey'" if he feels that things may take a turn that will not be to the Dbgst interests of the war or the- country. But this column is primarily concerned with farm life and farm problems so if what I write seems to be of little consequence comi- pared with big questions of the hour, don't take it to be a case ot a female Nero fiddling while Rome burns. We must have our lighter moments, you know, and if, by putting away vexing and perplex- ing problems for an hour or two, I can help you to relax, then we are really getting somewhere, aren't we? . * * » Here, at Ginger Farm," we are still at the 'redding up" stage. Partner has just taken away a wagon-load of rubbish to our own private dump heap--which I might add is on our own property and not along the road, nor in the corner of a back: field belonging to some other farmer. That kind of thing is done, you know, and I can't think of a meaner trick to serve on a neighbour. * * * As for me, before long I shall have been through every drawer and cupboard--and by the I have things straightened up™ I won't - know where anything is, regarding . time z It's fun, tidying up, isn't it? One comes across some of the most absurd things. You pick up a news- clipping--obviously laid away for some special reason, but looking it over now: you cant find any reason for it being kept. In one drawer I found a letter --a little boy's letter--written just the way any little boy would write to his the fun he had had at school; the new calves at the barn; and the good skating down at the flats, And then I look- ed at the date--"January, 1934"1 Ten short years ago--ten years in which a little boy has grown up. Yes, grown-up--and in growing up he has been trained to. kill, so that he may defend his own life and those of others, A far cry in- deed from skating and fun at schooll * * # Then I find a diary belonging to Daughter--obviously started great enthusiasm, but week by week the entries got shorter and shorter, until they stop altogether, I hated to throw it out--really I am the most dreadful person to hoard. And it is so foolish. After all things like that will never be of interest to anyone other than myself--but, there it is... The other day young John brought me in a scout whistle he had picked up in the garden. Now I' treasure it like gold. Another time I found an arm of a rubber Kewpie doll. It had been little daughter's first doll--sent from England--and wherever she went, to bed, for a walk, or in the bath, Kewpie went too. Amazing the things a plough will turn up, isn't it?

The Institution of Marriage In our lesson we find the Phari- sees again tempting Jesus with their questions. This time it is a question which would Yiave been in order if asked in the proper man- ner. "Is it lawful for man to put away his wife: for cvery cause?" Jesus appealed to their own know- ledge with the question, "Have ye not read that He which made them at the beginning made them male and female, and said for this cause shall a man leave father and mother and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain s!all be one flesh?" There was no matter of doubt left, regardless of the laws of thé church or laws of the land, joined to- gether, let not man put asunder." Mary, and Martha The: ceftain, village was Bethany *which is quite close to Jerusalem. Martha. secms to have been head of the house where she lived with Mary her, sister and Lazarus i her brother. They: apparently had a, great love. fon the Lord, and Jesus must have enjoyed the fel- lowship of. Martha and her family, for quite often he was: found visiting there. Jesus did not miss an oppor- tunitiy to teach' God's Word, and at his feet was Martha's sister Mary, eagerly listening to the Master's message, There: was. much. to. be taken care of in the preparation of the meal for Jesus and his disciples, and Martha was very busy looking after everything, She became ir- the riitated sceing her sister sitting at Jesus' feet and in a way blamed the Lord for her sis- ter's attitude. In his own unique way the Lord rebuked Martha with words of kindness. "One thing is needful, and Mary hath chosen that 'good part 'which shall not be taken away from her."
