q hope the two young men don't collide and have a duel, or anything of that kind" observed MT. Walworth.
 Wilfred Grey had been ordained in d church career only recently. He was mild. sensible man, and not likely to lose his temper nor his dignity over depaf ug rival. Grimes missed something amid his snoring insensi- bility that might have surprised him.
 For this estimable Mr. Grey ap- preached the lovers with smiling face. He shook hands with Irene, who Shrank from him. and very heartily with Adrian, who seemed glad and eager 10 meet him.
 'HWhy T" murmured Irene, in q pug Zled way, do you know one anotherY'
 "Oh, yes; We met last week" ex- pIained Grey, a peculiar smile on his face. "Perhaps, Mir. Bolton" he pro- ceeded. eve had better enlighten Miss Walworth"
 What had happened without the knowledge of Irene was this Mr. Grey had amazed Adrian by visiting him q few days previous to announce that, feeling that he stood in the way of the happiness of two devoted lovers, he wished to make a suggestion.
 And now he had come to carry it out. Grimes, half awaking, caught the low hum of three voices engaged in =. 4I house. There were quite foreeful in- tonations. which marked decidedly brotherly advice given by Grey. There were fluttcring hesitating accents, proceeding from the sweet lips of Irene. There was the earnest plead ing voice of Adrian.
 Then there was lull and then sol emn, vibrating tones, and Grimes sal up startled. and wondered if he were dreaming. for he had made q fearful discovery NeglectfuI of his pledged guardianship, he rushed for the house He fairly danced on both feet as he confronted the startled Mir. and Mrs. Walworth.

 "They-who-what-' gasped pater- familias.
 'Married?" echoed Mrs. Walworth in a shrill shriek.
 '.Yes'm. That man-he was to cut in-the minister. Grey I saw 'em. l heard him. Man and his wife were his very words"
 "A plot-we are tricked :" screamed Mrs. WalwOrth, and her bulky form de scribed an ungraceful dash across the garden, her husband following, half- guessing that climax was cuiminat- ing. Halfway to the summer house they were confronted, calm and Smil- ing, by Grey. He paraded in advance of two happy creatures, hand in hand, confident of manner and beaming of face.
 Mr. Grey put up his hand in true pa ternal manner to halt father and mother.
 "A new son-in-law," he observed, most pleasantly-'my first marriage function. Now, dear people, be reason able-they are so very happy"
 See here" stormed Walworth.
 You mean" faltered his wife.
 That I have married those two, as per agreement with MT. Bolton d few days since
 'Eut you who were to marry Irene-.' began Mrs. WaIworth.
 Sorry, for she is charming, but I have been secretly married for year. There will be another explosion when my mother arrives, I suppose, for she does not as yet know of it.
 The guilty pair looked so innocent and helpless, that MT. Walworth grinned and gave up opposition. His wife railed some, fulned, threatened, had mysteries, was supported in the arms of the new son-in=law, who kissed her meekly as she recovered, and all was forgiven

 are the ones who know; mere spectator
 gets only cursory glance-but the stu
 dent knows, year in and year out, all the
 workings and methods of the school 1 In talking with some of the officers of
 the senior class of 1916, a few expressions
 were gleaned, among which was that of
 MT Aird, the president of the class, who l said: 1 T am almost at loss to know just
 what to say as there are so many ! things that could be said about it. l However, let me say this, that the class of 1916 is, we believe, the l Igreatest class that has ever been

 The essayist. pretty little Miss Letitia McNee said:
 "As essayist the duty devolves upon me of writing an essay for the graduation exercises, and this will afford me great deal of pleasure. I have not grown up with the class, as other members, but transferred my allegiance from Montgom- 'ery, where I attended the High school for two years, to the class here Partially transferred it, l might say, for it would be difficult to erase from my mind the many happy days I spent there. At the same time, it has been wonderful thing to be in the Central High school here'
