Freya‘s grey eyes laughed into his. "Happy birthday Father." She kissed him and gave him a hug with all her twentyâ€"year old ardor. "Six candles â€" one for each @eâ€" cade of a wonderful life." She brought the frosted cake closer. "Now you must blow them out and wish." Everyone began shouting, "Blow! Blow hard!" He rose. "Well, the wish â€" let me see." Now he looked at them all separately. There was a special beauty in his eyes for his wife â€" the lovely Amelie with whom he‘d found a glorious happiness, in spite of their different faiths, From their union, had come Freya and laughâ€" ing temâ€"year old Rudi. Not only that, there were his two handsome stepsons, Amelie‘s boys, Otto and Erich, whom he had adopted and always regarded as his own. His home was open house to their own friends too, Fritz and Martin, who even now were at his table, celeâ€" brating his sixtieth birthday. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"* "Yoo know," he said slowly, "Toâ€" day I am reminded what a very lucky man I am." At the University, that afternoon, his colleagues had given him a handsome gift. Then, later, there had been an ovation from the students of his science class. It had touched him so deeply that tears had sprung to his eyes. "Yes," he went on, "it‘s been my privilege to let loose a little knowâ€" ledge in the world and for that I‘ve been handsomely rewarded." "Hear, hear," Otto and shouted affectionately and and Martin joined in. Professor Roth took a deep breath. "Ours has been a very unitâ€" ed family â€" in this German home of ours we‘ve had the babit of graâ€" cious living, we‘ve prided ourselves on our tolerance and our sonse of humor. Well, I can think of no betâ€" ter wish than this. May our happiâ€" ness last. May the bonds of mutual love and tolerance that united us "Wish?" He fingered his clipped beard anrd twinkleod a smile at her. "Yes, blow hard. You won‘t get your wish unless you put all the candles out at once." *They‘re So Convenient Box 1929, Place d‘Armes, Montreel, Canada ‘his offer subject to any change in Government Re or 1 Ib.

THE ENGAGEMENT He regarded the Professor merâ€" rily. "Professor, I hope you‘ll forâ€" give me if I steal a little of your spotlight â€" but I‘ll feel safer if it‘s official â€" if you and Mrs. Roth apâ€" prove." His voice deepened. "You see, this fternoon, Freya promised to become my wife." Young Rudi was a little bored by all this romantic nonsense. "Aw, if girls had any sense they‘d marry Martin. Martin can ski jump forty meters." There was laughter at this, not without embarrassment. It was an accopted fact that Martin and Fritz had been rivals for Freya‘s hand. Rudi piped up again "Mother â€" why doesn‘t the ice cream come? Please ring." Now he blew out all the candles and there was much applause and cries of "Bravo". Then it was time for the ice cream but suddenly Fritz arose holding his wine glass aloft. "Why of course," Fritz said eagâ€" erly, "Hitler‘ll do nothing unjust to nonâ€"Aryans â€" as such. Men will be judged on their merits, their reâ€" cords." Now he turned to Martin. "You don‘t seem very enthusiastic. Just what are your opinions, old man?" The place became bedlam. The engaged young people were embracâ€" ed by all the family and joy ran high. Only Mrs, Roth detected Marâ€" tin Breitner‘s start of shocked surâ€" prise, saw his sensitive face whitâ€" en. Then he fought for selfâ€"control and offered his hand to the exuberâ€" ant Fritz. "Congratulations. You‘re a lucky fellow." Together, Fritz and Otto spoke. ‘"What news â€" good heavens â€"!" In breathless triumph, Marta anâ€" nounced, "Hitler. They‘ve made him Chancellor. They‘ve made Adâ€" olf Hitler Chancellor of Germany." But all at once, Marta the maid burst in. "We got the news," she cried. She was wringing her hands with happy frenzy. "Over the radio in the kitchen." In all the rushing excitement of the next few moments, Freya felt a great void of stillness. As if time were pausing briefly â€" before it went on into the vague, uncharterâ€" ed future. The boys had all run into the kitâ€" chen and the voice of the radio announcer came to them. Much was happening tonight, The Leader of the National Socialist Party had taken over the Chancellory of the Reich. The jubilation, the delirious shouts of the people defied descripâ€" tion. The day of the Fatherland‘s resurrection was at hand. One hunâ€" dred thousand Storm Troopers now would march in a gigantic torch parade to honor their Leader. All Germany was expecte@ to particiâ€" pate in this joyous event. Briefly, Fritz‘s eyes flickered. "You can‘t lift Germany back to her old honor without bayonets." And, Otto chimed in, "Hitler would never attack any peaceâ€"lovâ€" ing nation or take a foot of anâ€" other country. As for Jews â€" why men like Father were an honor to Germany." Mrs. Roth looked at her husband anxiously. "I hope it will be for the best â€" for all â€" this change." A DICTATOR Otto, Fritz and Erich were thrilâ€" led. Why, it meant thaft Germany would be strong and powerful agâ€" ain, once more leading Europe and the world. "But â€" a Dictator?" Mrs. Roth asked, "And what about his antiâ€" Semitic program?" The latter said dryly, "Peasants have no politics. They keep cows." Otto and Erich tried to change the conversation, but Fritz laughed and retorted, with just the hint of threat. "If they want to keep their cows, they‘d better have the right politics. We‘ve chosen a leader. His will should be‘ law." "Whatever his. will may be*" came the even reply. "Persecution? War? No, I think peace is better than war. And a man‘s right to think as he believes is as good for bim as food and drink." Fritz‘s voice rose with hostility. "What sort of talk is this? Are you a Pacifist?" Martin was silent. "That sounds suspiciously like the kind of swill the Reds dish out. I never expected to hear it in this house." "Children, children," the Profesâ€" sor remonstrated. "Can‘t we discuss these matters without quarreling? Every hen thinks she‘s laid the best egg. May we not all believe as we choose â€" " NO ONE KNEW â€" YET Mrs, Roth was disconsolate. Why, it meant interrupting the birthday party. Otto assured her though that it was a big night â€" porhaps the biggest night Germany had ever known. They‘d better be going or the meeting would start without them. But now there was another interâ€" ruption, a telephone call from Disâ€" trict Leader Hall, President of the Student Body, with instructions to be at the mseting hall at eightâ€" thirty. Martin was the last one at the door, leaving with obvious reluctâ€" ance. Quite firmly, he took Freya‘s hand and held it. "Goodnight," he said softly. He looked down upon her tenderly from his great hoight "I haven‘t wished you happiness. But you know I do. Fritz is a grand fellow. And a lucky one." "Thank you," Dear Martin, she thought. They would be friends alâ€" ways. There was a special language they had â€" invented in their childâ€" hood. Always, there would be un< derstanding between them. "Come on Martin," Otto called from outside. *Hurry." When they had left a chill seemâ€" ed to come over the place. No one was able to say anything. Even litâ€" tle Rudi, who now had his ice cream, held his spoon poised aloft, as if the flavor had gone from the dessert. Then he asked, torn beâ€" tween awe and resentment, "Is he so important then â€" this Hitler?" Exercise Keep Hands Flexible No one answered â€" because no one knew â€" as yet.

TORONTO Social Justice Should Be Our Postâ€"War Aim Aim of governments after the war must be for social justice, Miss M. Louiso Haskins, of Banff, Alta. formerly of London, England, said in addressing the triennial convenâ€" tion at Calgary of the Canadian Federation of University Women‘s Clubs. Miss Haskins, who became famâ€" ous when the words of a poem she wrote some years ago were quoted by His Majesty in his New Year‘s radio address, held that the characâ€" ter of general government which will come after the war may be show to emerge but its nucleus should appear in terms of a peace treaty. HEALTH BIG PROBLEM The former London School of Economics staff member said that certain necessities of the postâ€"war world could be forecast. The world would face after the war most of the conditions of the last war but those conditions would be inâ€" tensified, with the most serious problems those of health. Any remaining luxuries of life must be strictly curtailed as long as the vital needs of good health were unfilled, and bousing proâ€" jects would be a part of the health scheme, she believed. Great private fortunes would not have a part in the postâ€"war world, she predicted. Overâ€"Coddling Is Detrimental "Arrested development" means that the mind does not continue on to maturity but stops somewhere along the line. Many people are mentally no older than eight or ten years, although their physical age may be in the twenties or fifties By andlarge most cases of arrestâ€" ed development are emotional.
