But a queer little feeling that the advantage of the situation for the rest of this day, lay very decidedly with him, was meking conversation rather hard for her. Beatrice wished that she had been married for a year. It had sll seemed natural! and right enough, even as short a time past gs yesterday. But now, walk- ing over the grounds of the new Wawataysee Club, talking pleas- antly of unessential things with Mr. Houston Challoner, she (felt strangely constrained and remote; as If he were--well, just Mr, Hous- ton Challoner again and she just the humblest of his office employees It all seemed funny, that nice old Scotchman. calling her "Mrs, Chal- loner," and the beauty and sil- ence of the big, sweet countryside, and the loneliness of it when the sun sank, now that the laborers had gone home, For a third time--it was really more like a tenth, but she counted it as three--she remembered that big, laughing, deep-voiced boy. Her stepson! He had held her hands so queerly, growing sober and puzzled, all at once. He had loked at her. And he had sald, in a gentle, abstracted sort of tone, "Well, that's that, isn't {t?""-- that's the little clerk who has managed to capture Dad, he meant. "What brings him---your sen-- back?' she asked, at supper. "Bert?" "Yes. Has he finished his course----whatever it was--at the Beaux Arts?" "Finished nothing. He finishes nothing, that lad, He's a clever fellow too--I want you to like him, Beatrice. No, he's not fiaished. He just got tired and came home. He hadn't time for many detalls, put he said his intentions were honorable," said his father, smil- ing. "Probably he'll take a little vacation up at my mother's place and then go into the business." "Will he be any use to you, Hugh?" "Not a particle," the man said cheerfully, "But why not send him back to Paris?" She wanted him to go back to Paris, He--he belonged to Paris. "Oh, he's had enough of Paris!" his father said carelessly. Suddenly she knew what she had felt, what she had resented, In young Bert Challoner's master- 'ul, strange look this morning. He had thought that she was marry- ing his father just for money, that without money no man Hugh's age could win so young a wife. He had treated his father badly himself, trying to get money from Hugh, wasting his own time and disap- pointing those who loved him. And he had thought--young Bert had thought, 'Here's another of us, working the old man!" Beatrice told herself that she had read that in Bert's first ap- praising look. Well, he had been entirely wrong. Not that what he thought or dfdn't think signified in the least, as far as she was con- cerned, She sighed, her slim young body resting against Hugh's shoulder. And Hugh bent his head down, in the soft, dusky summ-<:® <Carkness. and asked her if she was tired, The days, under the ecireum- stances, raced past Beatrice Chal- loner like leaves in an autumn wind. Everything was different from what her imagination had made it, and among all the changes and surprises and bewilderments of the new life she sometimes felt as if she had quite lost herself There was somebody in her place, truly, a fine, happy, busy, well-dressed woman named Beat- rice Challoner, but she seemed to have little in common with Bea- trice St. John. This woman had no past, no re- latives, no old home. There were occasional letters from a mother znd sister In southern California, to be sure, but even these seemed unreal and entirely cut away from the old days and ways. As for the little apartment in a gritty, gray, commonplace block down toward Mill. Street, Beatrice never saw it again after her wedding day---she saw the outside of the building once by chance, when ber car hap- peaed to pass it, but there were strange cheap curtains at the fotirth-floor windows, a new apart- ment house had gone up on the lot next door, and nothing about it seemed familiar, For the rest, she lived in a beautiful big, comfortable, some- Tory Hill. It was not old enough to be picturesque and not new enough to be thrilling. Exper- {red old servants managed it r-feetly and saved her the trouble of hanging up her gowns or answ- ering the telephone unnecessarily. She wrote letters to her moth- er and Marcia. and called upon Ho's sisterg and aunts and cou- The Make Believe Wit About A Young Girl Who Married Her Employer. s nd mother, and drove her- self gownilown every afternoon at 2 ood four o'clock to wait for him: pretty young Mrs. Challoner, whose story was so intensely romantic, bundled up in squirrel furs, with a cap of gray squirrel pulled down over her coppery hair, waiting for her husband. ' Hugh, coming down the street with his secretary beside him, would see her there, subsided, be hind the wheel, perhaps reading th latest novel or idly watching the street that was softly brilliant in autumn sunshine or gray under a threatening winter sky, She would look up, his beautiful, gen tle, devoted young wife-- and the wide mouth would smile and show a flash of big, even white teeth, and Beatrice would bend out to kiss him and wriggle to her own side of the car. Late in February, Noon, the old chauffeur, was driving Hugh and Beatrice home over slippery snow that had frozen and thawed and frozen again many time, when they had a mild collision with another car, At the time it seemed as if no one was hurt, hut afterward it developed that Beatrice had been badly shaken; she had a time of biter disappointment to bear, and for six weeks was kept very quiet, on one floor, Hugh appreciated, even his mother and sisters appreciated, the fact that another woman might have made a great deal of this. But Beatrice bore it with her new dignity and made her fillnesg even more touching and lovely than her health and spirits 'had been. Every night when Hugh came home she was alone; he loved to send her violets and primroses, and there were always bowls of them about the big, white-paneled" upstairs sitting-room where she waited for him. A wood fire would be burning in the white-tiled fire- place, behind the brass and frons, and Beatrice had half g dozen cos- tumes with which to please him-- the blue and orchid quilted . robe that stood out all about her like the robe of an infant Spanish prin cess on a Velasquez canvas; the white one that was all ribbons and scented ruffles; the gray and green one whose collar lay like an Eliz. abethan ruff a%out her long, rounded white throat. When they two were shut into this upstairs room, with the fire burning lazily, anq it was cold and dark and stormy outside, Hugh would sometimes feel as if his heart would burst with sheer féli- city. There was a mechanieal plano In the shadow, and some- 'times Beatrice would go to it, and he would sit back in his big lea- ther chair, with his half-clnged eyes fixed upon the slender figure in the gloom, under whose fingers jhe melodies were so softly creep- ng. Then, fragrant, rounded, delic- fously gerious and young, she would come back to her chair, per- haps stopping to kiss the top of his head as she passed it, and in the tempered lamplight her green-zray eyes would find his and she would question him about his day.

'OF PENSIONS BIL Premier Ferguson Makes Re- . ply to Objections of Toronto, Mar, 23,--Having up- dermined opposition objection to the municipal contributions clause by laying down a definite policy of local rontrol, Premier Ferguson guided his old age pensions bill through second reading in the leg islature last night without division, The premier forestalled his op- pected attack on the clause where- in the municipalities are asked to contrtbute 20 per cent of the pen- sions." He pointed out that in British Columbia where the provia- cial government had assumed the whole cost apart from 'the domin- fon contribution, the cost to the province : was. $600,000 a year or double what had been estimated, Abuses which, he believed, would be minimized by his proposed pol- icy of local control had 'heen large- ly responsible; he was informed. In Ontario with all applications being received by local cemmissions which would know the people who were entitled to them, he declared. And further, he added, the people who received them would receive them as a matter of right and not as a' charity. He was a staunch believer in the right of the aged needy to a state pension, but he re- iterated his opinion that pensions should be the responsibility of the dominion, not the province, Sinclair Complains W. BE. N. Sinclair, Liberal leader, criticized the premier"s plea for an unobstructed passage for the bill. In the past, he declared, he had often been taken into consultation on various bills. On this, however, he had been kept completely in the dark until it was introduced into the house. Also, he stated, the premier had read a written pre- pared statement in which he had characterized Mr. Sinclair's re- marks on the probable old age pen- sions bill as "incorrect" and 'mis leading."' This statement had been Yet, he asked that a passage he given the bill, Continuing, the Liberal leader declared that the federal act had planned that no municipality should be asked to participate in donating towards the pension. That was the reason for the federal grant of 50 per cent, - Not Belligerent "It I were inclined to be conten- tious on this matter I have had plenty of provocation through the premier's attitude," commented Mr. Sinclair. "There is lots of reason why I should be belligerent. But I will not. He went out of his way to read me a lecture. He did not prepare his ground very well for his proposal that all should sup- port the bill." The premier had stated that the state is responsible for the old peo- ple of the country and had declar- ed that the state is the federal gov- ernment, Mr, Sinclair pointed out. But, he sald, the state responsible should be the province. "The only interpretation is that the dominion expected the province to pay 50 per cent," he declared. "But Ontario steps ju and goes to the municipalities. The premier says that the province does not col- lect a greater tax from the people, that it only has its certain avenues of taxation. No one said they did. We do say that through their legis- lation, the tax burden is constant- ly increased. The townships must build better roads." Premier Ferguson: "That's not fair. We gay if they build roads to a certain, standard, they will be assisted by 30 or 40 per cent." Mr. Sinclair: 'Somebody said Rip Van Winkle returned from England, Where were you? Since 3 o'clock today we gAve second reading to a bill of the minliter of highways which says that if the, build a good road up a side road, some place where a good Tory lives, they \will be helped by the prov- ince." ' Claims Undue Taxation Mr. Sinclafr then declured that through taxation, 40 per cent of the grant from the federal govern- ment already had been collected from the residents of the munici- palities who were asked by tue PIoyinee to pay a further 20 per cen "In other words," %e declared, "40 per cent, is collected from the people and then the province gous aheal and asks them to pay an- other 20 per cent, This was the reason 'for the federal grant. it was to guard against the province seeking 2 donation from the mun. elpaliiies. Thus I say 50 per cent should be paid by the province and not 30 per cent." The premier pointed out that in a section of the federal act it haa been stipulated that if any person under the act received benefit from a municipality, he should not be deprived of a voice in the munici- pality's business. This, he claimed, was proof that the federal act ex- pected that the municipalities would bé joining in the donation from the. province. Mr. Sinclair also pointed out that as the premier's address on the bill tended to suggest, a provincia, board of commission would be in charge of the administration of the act, Disputes Local Control "This means that the commis- sion in Toronto will have the fi- nal say as to who shal be a pen- sioner and who shall not despite the fact that the local commission selects them," he declared. "And there will be no appeal from that." In conclusion, Mr. Sinclair de- clared himself in favor of aid for the aged people of the province, but felt that the provinee had not kept faith with the federal authori- Hes who had paved the way for the ac Of every thousand British child- |} ren ten or more have lost the pow- er of seeing clearly at a distance by the age of four, while in twenty years 150 will have become short- " GIMME, GIMME, GIMME!"

M.P. FOUND GUILTY OF GRAVE OFFENCE Charged With Attacking a 'Girl in Room in Parliament Buildings Ottawa, ~Mar, 22.--Louis M. Auger, member of parliament for Prescott, was found guilty of com- mitting a grave attack against a 17-year-old girl by supreme court of Ontario grand jury here on Wednesday night. Sentence will be passed by his lordship, Mr, Justice Wright, today. The jurymen deliberated for one hour and 27 minutes before bring- ing in their verdict, which con- tained a recommendation for ne court's mercy to the accused. It was not made known yesterday whether Auger would be nrougnt to trial on a second count returned against him in the "true bill" which the jury found against the accused in the opening 'day of the spring assizes. The second count was of lesser gravity than that on which he was convicted. Auger, 26 years of age is the youn;est member of parliament, representing in the commons the county of Prescott. The serious charge was preferred against him by Miss Laurence Martel, 17, of Hawkesbury, Ont. She charged that she had been attacked in Aug- er's room in the parliament build- ings on Saturday afternoon, Feb- ruary 16.

The Lower House sat to consider a few items on its order paper ; thé Upper House discuss- ed in committee the mony cluases of the Montreal bill; the Public Bills Committee of the Lower House heard Premier Taschereau urge the restriction of writs of prohibition and certiorari. Nothing startling came at the sitting of the House. Two bills of interest were voted without much debate, one for remedying the dilapidated condition of ceme- teries in those districts where the Protestant minority has dwind- led, the otrer to prohibit on high- ways posts advertising alcoholic bevarages.

At the beginning of 1929 regular passenger, mail and goods traffic was fainta ned by 25 different air. traf- c Sompaies, representing 15 coun tries, which figure, however, does not include Russia, from where the auth- or has been unable to obtain the nec- essary information. Of the entire air fleet 577 airplanes have one motor, 71 have two motors, 63 three motors and 19 four motors, Thus, of all planes 21 per cent have more than one motor, The 730 airplanes have been built by 29 airplane factories and represent no less than 67 differ- ent types, which shows the keen com- petition between the various manu- facturers, The author, however, states that fortunately the standard- ising work in this field progresses rapidly and that within the near fu- ture the number of types will be con- siderably redyced, The general tendency in the devel- opment of this industry goes toward bigger 'machines and bigger motors. Another interesting feature is the probability that the Diesel motor will soon compete earnestly with the types now used, and the author is of the opinion that once the Diesel mo- tor has proved its efficiency for avia- tion purposes it will quickly elimin- ate the benzine motors, owing to its smaller fuel consumption and thanks to the fact that it uses fuel 50 per cent cheaper and which means a con- siderable lessening of the fire danger with increased safety.
