Hair Raising Dive.

The French machine rose from the

gained an altitude greater than that

tage was not sufficient to drive the
scout away. In a daring dive in which
he braved heavy fire from the French
lines the German descended to height
Of 1000 yards and. skillfully avoiding
the French machine, started to drive
for the German lines.
For awhile the German was success.

gone ON within her many kinds of
death. She had arrived somehow at
dumb feeling that these dyings were
gradually uncovering herself from
somewhere within; rather uncovering
some self whose existence she only
dimly guessed. "They's two Of me-"
she had thought more often of late,

She lived among her neighbors without
hate, without malice; for years she
had meant nothing but love-" and
this not negatively. The rebellion
against Christmas was against only
the falsity of it's meaningless observ
ance. The rebellion against taking the
child, though somewhat grounded in
her distrust Of her own fitness, was
really the last vestige Of a self that
had chung to her in bitterness not to-
ward Adam, but toward Lily. Ever
since she had known that the child
was coming she had felt a kind of
spiritual exhaustion, sharpened by the
strange sense Of oppression that hung
upon her like an illness.
II feel as If something was going
to happen" she kept saying.
In a little while she leaned toward

with the doings of these grown folk
and now were looking ahead to see
who should come next. 1t was the
high moment Of immemorial expectan-
cy, when those who are alive turn the
head to see who shall come after.
"What you been making all day,

sound from without.

Ellen shook her head and made him
know, with what words she could
hnd,. that it could not be so. Then she
knelt and touched at the coat Of the
child, a small frightened thing. with
cap too large for him and one mitten
lost. But he looked up brightly and
his eyes stayed on the Christmas tree.
Nllen said little things to him and went
to take down for him some trifie from
the tree.

quietly to Holders. 81 never thought

Matthew looked swiftly at Ellen. He
had not told her that he had sent by
Holders for a toy. And at that Ellen
crossed abruptly to her husband, and
she was standing there as they let
Holders out with the little boy.

Because of that light she could not

been her savage satisfaction in raving
the cold had long since become mere
undramatic ability to endure it without

Our |
independence
BY MARGARET z. sANdsTEp
<<f<k<kkkkkkRk%kkkkk

I sometimes wonder whether we
prize as we ought the great boon Of
independence under our flag. Once in
a while / hear women assert with
emphasis that whoever else may be
free they certainly are not SO, and that
they never will be 80 until they have
the ballot This special problem of vot-
ing or not voting does not concern you
and NE when we look at our position
and compare 1t with that Of the wom-
en- Of other lands. For many reasons
thoughtful women are coming round to
the belief that they ought to have the
ballot. Others, however, equally
thoughtful, take an opposite view, and
until majority can agree that they
desire to have a share in nominating
and electing those who carry on our
