Some world-famous names appea,

conduct them as benefit to the
people rather than to our own peck
ets."
That's a clever way of putting it."
commended Jim Sargent. Its time
we did something to get rid of our
disgrace" and he was most earnest
about it. He had been the most un-
comfortable of all these vestrymen in
the past few days; for the disgrace
of Market Square church had been
very reliable topic of conversation in
Gail Sargent's neighborhood
The nasal voice Of smooth-shaven
old Joseph G. Clark drawled into the
little silence which ensued.
What about the cathedral?" be
asked, and the hush which followed
was far deeper than the one which
he had broken. Even Rev. Smith Boyd
was driven to some fairly profound
thought. His bedroom and his study
were lined with sketches of the stu
pendously beautiful cathedral, the
most expensive in the world in which
he was to disseminate the gospel.
Suppose we come back to earth"
res umed Clark, who had built the
Standard Cereal company into mon
opoly of all the breadstuffs by that
process. IF we rebuild we set our
selves back in the cathedral project
ten years. You can't wipe out what
you call our disgrace, even if you
give all these paupers free board and
compulsory baths. My proposition is
to telephone for Edward e. Allison,
and tell him we're ready to accept
his offer"
Not while I'm a member Of this
vestry," declared Nicholas Van Ploon,
swiveling himself to defy Joseph G.
Clark eve don't sell the property"
Il put Mr.. Clark's proposition as a
notion jerked w. T. Chisholm, and
in the heated argument which en-
sued, the Good Shepherd in the win
dow, taking advantage of the shifting
sun, removed from the room the light
of the red robe.
In the end, the practical-minded
members won over the sentimental

son was telephoned. Before they
were through wrangling over the de-
cision to have him meet them, Alli-
son was among them. One might al
most have thought that he had been
waiting for the call; but he ex-
changed no more friendly glances
with Clark and Chisholm, of the new
international Transportation COM
pany, than he did with any of the
others.
We'll, Allison, we've decided to &C.
cept your offer for the Vedder court
property" stated Manning.
Il haven't made you any, but I'm
willing" returned Allison.
Jim Sargent drew from his pocket
a memorandum slip.
you offered us sum which, at
three and half per cent, would &C
crue, in ten years, to forty-two mil
lion dollars" he reminded the presi-
dent of the Municipal Transportation
company. That figures to a spot-cash
proposition of thirty-one millions, with
repeating decimal of one; so some
body will have to lose a cent"
THAT offer is withdrawn" said Al
lison.

gent. THE property is as valuable for
