turned brusquely away to the sink.

Influence of "Thee" and "Thou. /"

In little essay in contemporary
on the Sweet Girl Graduate" we find
the following: "a young woman who
has just graduated from a private
school conducted by Friends is prov
ing the truth of the report which has
made this school popular and finan-
clally successful From a quick-tem-
pered, sharptongued girl she has de-
veloped into a mild-mannered, soft
spoken young woman whose serenity
is never RULED, apparently. She says
that It was due to the fact that dur
ing her stay at the boarding school
she was compelled to use the quaint
language of the Friends, and that she
found 1t impossible to be cross when
saying thee and thou If this item
is widely copied, there will be a de-

said that part of this significance is in
a religious sense and part is in spec
tacular sense. 1t is not the special
music and the flowers which make for
the latter so much as the disposition
public to seize the opportunity to get
a glimpse at close range of the presi-
dent Of the United States.
AS has been said the president at
tends church service almost every
Sunday morning in the year. but there
is no certainty as to his appearance,
nor, on the ordinary Sabbath. does the
president invariably attend the church
of which he is a member. Indeed not
lnfrequently the chief executive ac-
cepts an invitation to worship with
some congregation OF another de

exceptional circumstances interfere
with his attendance at the morning
service Knowing this. throngs gather
at the church. whereas a good sized
crowd is sure to follow the president
all the way from the White House
gates to the church.

Discovery That Must Have Come as a
Great Relief to the Young
Lawyer.

One rainy day recently, a young
lawyer, thinking he would like to take
little flyer in stocks, called at the
office of his broker, who happened to
be his most intimate friend. When
he reached the office a new clerk
whom he had never seen before told
him that the broker was engaged, but
would be at liberty in a few minutes
While sitting idly in the waiting room
the young lawyer noticed something
that made his eyes almost drop out
The gloom of the day necessitated the
use of artificial light in the brokers'
private office. Silhouetted upon the
ground glass partition between the
two rooms the lawyer saw the shad-
ows of man and a woman. They
We're both seated, the broker at his
desk and the woman beside and fac.
ing him. Every moment or so the
lips of the shadows seemed to meet
affectionately. Something about the
profile of the woman struck the law
yer as strangely familiar He rose
instantly and threw open the door.
Sure enough it was his wife, but she
was sitting decorously in a chair two
or three feet from the broker, but
almost in line with him, engaged in
an animated discussion.
Both looked up at the Intrusion, but

beneath his vigorous tread. The AK
was shifted from side to side, as he
walked, and the free arm swung
across his chest. He struck into the
wood-road with a song and hallooed
to the stiffness. The love-sick boy of
yesterday was gone. Taking off his
cap he called and sang till the blue
jays forgot to be frightened and how
cred, curious, in the trees overhead.
He took off his cap to them. looking
up through the treetops to the blue
simmer OF sky He swung the cap
around his head and they darted away
"a blue and white clatter of sound
He replaced it, laughing softly.
The earth was alive. He reached
out to the bushes as he passed, trail
ing the budded stems through his fin
gers and brushing the purple-brown
oak leaves with swiftest touch When
he came to the tree that he was to
cut he ran his palm up and down it's
rough bark before he seized his ak
and swung it clear from his shoulder
The blows rang even and hard and
with every blow he drove home the
first declension of the Greek gram
mar.
Every day found him at work in the
woods. Soon Tom Bishop joined him
and the cross-cut saw flashed to it's
work in the trunks. Richard to the
tune of its monotonous seesaw, sang
Greek verbs and declined nouns-till
Tom caught the rhythm and chanted
declensions in sheer self-defence. At
