light
Blair scrutinized the clump OF
bushes. H. had supposed the white
thing fitting about there to be slim
beam from the moon.
But the gardeners never come
down here and uncle is away, 50 it Is
all right" The voice was nearer to
Blair than before.
He shaded his eyes and looked more
closely. "a low ripple OF laughter ac-
companied his search.
Here I am" She had parted the
bushes and still Blair felt that a
wedge of moonbeam had squeezed
down through the trees. He stared
at her with his hand shading his eyes.
'I can't see whether or not # like
your eyes," she said half petulantly.
Blair obediently dropped his hand
and turned toward the light that
came from the small door Of his cara
van. The dreamer's look was iii his
eyes and the dreamer's whimsical
smile on his lips.
Molly looked at him with grave
eyes for moment What are you
doing here?" she asked, edging nearer
to him.

said in the tone Of one speaking to q
child.

tone. And then what do you do?"

AZ the WINDOWS through which sne
had gone Finally he arose, unteth-
cred his horses, hitched them to the
caravan and drove Off into the night
"She Is too wonderful" his lips re
peated. 'I could not Withstand her
.ong"
Three years came and went before
Molly Ashwell and the Vagabond
Dreamer met, three years in which
her eyes had worn peculiar, brood
ing look-a look which John Gray
had tried in vain to fathom or to
tighten.
"You are not 20 happy looking
yourself" she had chided him on one
occasion.
He had grown shade paler.
II have cause-a terrible cause for
being miserable-but I deserve It,"
was ali he had said
She glanced quickly at him now as
they sat III the theater. The curtain
went up on new play. The scene
was an interior.
TT Is almost exactly like our draw
ing rOom!" exclaimed Molly breath
lessly and waited for confirmation Of
her words.
John Gray neither answered nor
seemed conscious Of her presence.
AS the play progressed Molly felt
the peculiar tension that held John
Gray. After spasmodic clutch Of
the hands on the chair arms he re-
manned as one turned to stone.
The play was the old, old story Of
the son who had frequented the stage
doors and had been turned away from
home By an irate parent. To- this case
the son had lived in the theatrical
atmosphere merely a. q stepping
stone. He had run away from home
To 60 on the stage that he might gain
intimate knowledge of stagecraft.
The strong plot woven IN this fabric
was neither here nor there except
that at the close of the last act the
author was called forth.
He came from the wings.
my son!"
John Gray sprang to his feet and
held out pair OF shaking arms to-
ward the man on the stage.
MY Vagabond Dreameri" came a
girls voice through the hush that
followed the meeting of father and
son.
Regardless OF the excited audience,
the two men met and the older man
clasped the other in his arms as if
he was still very small boy.
q suspended breath held the audi.
ence.
Finally the quiet tones Of the vaga
bond went out to answer that un-
asked question.
my father and I have been long
estranged-I am too happy to say
more, except that 7 thank you for re-
ceiving my play SO kindly"
During the thunder of applause
that followed slim little figure
slipped quickly out OF the theater and
into the great limousine that crept
up to the curb at her call.
Her heart was beating painfully Id
dull, miserable beats.
Nobody loves me-" she wept softly
into the kindly cushions.
She sat huddled and broken, neither
seeing nor hearing the excited crowd
that came forth from the theater.
III seemed ages before the two men,
arm in arm appeared. Molly dried
her eyes hastily and peered out as
they approached.
The younger man glanced at the
car. Then Molly saw his hand 60 up
to- shade bis eyes. He made quick
movement.
She was very near him and the
limousine had turned into a darkened
street when next she heard his voice.
Mine! All mine" he whispered
against her lips.
Can we 60 in the caravan?" Molly
asked by way OF answer to bis Ques.

PO[YCARP :
RECTOR rs YEARS
Members of ST. Mary's Parish
to Celebrate Anniversary
= August 10.

The members and friends of the
parish of st. Mary's Church, at Will
lam and High streets. are making X
| tensive preparations to celebrate the
twenty-nfth anniversary of the pas
! torate Of thc Rev. p. PolyEsa
| Scherer, o. s. B., on Sunday, August
| Is. The celebration will continue for
| three days and will include an op-
eretta the following Monday and a
| lawn fete on Tuesday.
Father Polycarp, as he is best
| known to his friends. is one Of the
most beloved and best known priests
in Newark. During the many years
he has been pastor at st. Mary's he
has endeared himself to all who know
him. He has worked increasingly for
the good of the church, school and
congregation, and now his friends in
tend to show him how they appreci-
ate his services.
A few years ago when he cele-
brated his twenty fifth ordination ans
adversary, he was given a big recep-
ton, but it Is claimed it will not COM
pare with the coming event.
Father Polycarp is a native of Dor
mettingen. Wurtemburg, Germany.
He was born March 10, 1859, and did
not come to the United States until
education. Upon arriving In this
country he went to Latrobe, Pa,
where he completed his studies for
the priesthood. He was ordained
July %, 1883.
Father Polycarp first went to Ala
bama, where he spent two years.
From there he came to st. Mary's
Church, where for two a he was
assistant pastor In August, 1887, he
became pastor of the church.
During his charge Father Polycarp
has seen ST. Mary's Church and
school go through many changes. 1t
being the first German Catholic
Church in Newark, a number of
churches have sprung from the
parish. The parish dates back to
1888, and was founded by the Rev.
John Stephen Raffeiner.
A few years ago the st. Mary's
school was renovated, costing over
$4,000, and is today one of the most
modern schools in the city. Father
Polycarp also had many repairs made
to the church.
During the long period of his pas
torate at st. Mary's Father P%olycarp
has taken few vacations. He has
been home but once during the time.
His yearly vacations are brief.
His coming jubilee will be what his
friends intend to make one of the
most notable events of his life, and
nothing will be spared in showing
their appreciation for the services he
has so long rendered.

Between Ourselves

Market 6700.
That's the new telephone
number of the Bamberger
store.
It's to bad we had to
change our number, but our
constant demand for new
trunk lines compelled the
Telephone Company to give
US a number that would en-
able us to increase our serv-
ice whenever we pleased.
What has brought about
this increase in trunk lines?
INCREASED BUSINESS!
The Bamberger store is a
great, growing institution-it
never sleeps-it never rests.
Our constant demand for
more telephones is typical of
the store-wes are expanding
and progressing.
Meantime, forget our old
telephone number and re-
member "MARKET 6700."
