W‘V‘Do you think it would be right of me to put another girl on the pedestial 1 reserved for her?" he asked one day. Joan was hesitant. "I don‘t know," she confessed. "Knowing you, I believe that she will always remain dear to you. Deep down you will think of what might have been.

For all that there was a conflict going on in the mind of Edâ€" ward Sturton. His affection for Phillipa Sandley had roots of the deepest kind. founded on an appreciation of her sterling worth. After the tragedy of Phillipa, Joan too, was a prey to doubtsâ€"questions as to the propriety of aspiring to the platce that Phillipa had held. Sincerely she had endeavoured to console Edward. Her friendship had been given without ulterior motive. As they came to see more of each other and to exchange opini®isg on matters of intimate interest, the wraith of Phillipa seemed to come between them. i 1e L. l "Be fair, Edward. Phillipa Sandley was rather a friend of mine, in a wiy. That makes it more difficult for me to imagine myself as the other person." "geriously," he blurted out, "you are."

PRINCIPAL CHARACTERS BIR CHARLES STURTON, an enlightened landowner, previously in shipping, in which he made money which he now devotes to developing the Manor estates. He takes a great interest in JOHN MORRIS, son of the local garage proprietor, whose wife was a daughter of a chauffeur once in Sir Charles® employ. John is a clever boy at school and after he wins a scholarship Sir Charles takes care of his education with a view to his becoming agent of the estates. Sturton‘s own son EDWARD STURTON has no particular interest in country life, preferring to study to become a doctor. The two boys are firm friends and remain so during their period at Oxford. Also friendly with John is PATRICIA STURTON, though with her there is a hint of patronage... Newâ€" comers to the district are ADMIRAL SANDLEY, whose views are rather feudal, his son CONRAD, inclined to look down on Morris while cultivating Edward Sturton, Sense and Nonsense:â€"Some people have away of adding on and repeating more than they hear.

It would have saddened him had his son reâ€" mained a bachelor as an act of homage 'to Phillipa. Those who acted like that too often deteriorated into selfish l eynics encouraged by a satisfaction in selfâ€"martyrdom. It was the wedding of Conrad and Patricia ‘that brought matters to a head. That event was, necessarily subâ€" dued by reason of the war and the recent death of the bridegroom‘s sister. But in essentials it was everything a country wedding should beâ€"the many friends and acquaintances gathered toâ€" gether, village people lining the path, old Tebbutt lovingly fingering the organ keys, and the vicar, with a perâ€" sonal as well as a professional interest in the occasion. "If you don‘t give Diana permission to marry John she will . . ." "Joan Barton is a charming and accomplished girl," Diana spoke up. "Hah! Her father was a printer." *‘Now he happens to be our vicar. Even were he still printing, that would hardly affect Joan‘s character." "It means splitting the family," Diana told John. "He will not budge an inch. Ah, well, I hate to do it, but the time has come when I must have my way." ‘"‘Now you are twentyâ€"one, darling." "That is only half of it. We have no legal hindrance. But I do wish I did not have to stab my own father." "*He‘ll get over it." "Never. Not if I go deliberately against his expressed wishes, What if it breaks him up? Men of his age can be broken by family upsets. He has not by any means recovéered from the death of poor Phillipa, and blames Eaward for forgetting her so sOoon. ‘Forgetting‘ is how he looks at it." Mrs. Sandley did not get far on this dangerous ground. She was quickly shup up. There was another interval of driftâ€" ing, with the Admiral using every deâ€" vice he could to control Diana, and his anger rising at any mention of John, which invariably induced her to burke the issue. «h | Ac .4 .

I shall be the laughing stock of the country." natural. Diana and John were made for each other. As things are, they have waited most patiently. Now there is no logical reason why they should not marry., No reason of any kind, so far as I can see." "To me," Sir Charles said delibertâ€" ately, "John Morris is almost a second son.

"I prefer not to discuss such a conâ€" tingency." ; "Quite so," the Admiral agreed. "It could never arise, of course." "Will you tell me frankly," Sir Charles proceeded, "whether you have any other objection to Morris except his immediate ancestry?" "Isn‘t that enough?"

I‘m not thinking only of the young people. I‘m thinking of England, and I know that‘s as near to ycur heart as your own daughter, We must look ahead, and shape our decisions to the future.

To have frustrated it would have meant misery for those two, if not for two others they might have married later And, God knows, Admiral, there‘s enough misery in the world already!

He left there to further his studies in piano in New York, where he studied with the great pianist, Moritz Rosenthal. The piano solos to be played by Mr. Battle at the Kinsmen event on Sept. 15th at the McIntyre Arena were all played by him at the Promenade Symphony Orchestra Concert last sumâ€" mer.

Butterscotch syrup is anâ€" other filavouring worth a trial. This is recommended for cooked cereals such as wheatena, oatmeal or farina. However, for the nonâ€"cereal eating family, there are several suggestions that may bring this group of foods into favour. This is important in the present food program, because cereals are unrationed, and so far are in the plentiful category. (By Agnes Adams) Most families have their favourite cooked and their favourite prepared cold cereals. These are standbys that can be depended upon, and probably need no special features to make them appreciated. With any of these flavourings don‘t forget to add wheat germ to hot and cold cereals. This not only adds a certain rich, wheaty flavour, but also enhances the food value of the cereal dish. 88L S 4 4* Treasurer‘s Sale of Lands for Taxes TOWN OF TIMMINS, DISTRICT OF COCHRANE | Recipe for Macaroni and Fish Casserole Flavored Milk Gives Cereals Enticing Values OFFICE OF THE UREASURER, A.
