sat down to indite letter to Charlie
Ross that should sound like Doris
and yet be what Doris was not.
She wrote it from her own heart.
She spoke of what love means to a
woman, of all the things that she
knew and Doris could never know.
She poured out her heart in that let
ter, and in many others.
For the first letter brought back a
reply that touched her wildly. It
showed something in the mans ma
tuTe, something idealistic which even
Elizabeth Gray had never known ex-
listed in the man, something to which
her heart responded as the steel to
the magnet. And after that the de-
scent was easy.
Letter after letter came to him
from her pen. You must not Won

so different to you when we meet
from what Iseem to be in my letters.
It is very difficult for me to express
myself face to face"
Charlie is devoted" said Doris
happily one day 'He thinks I write
all those letters, and you know, Eliz-
abeth, that they are ncomprehensi-
BILE to me-"
Yes, there were many things that
we're incomprehensible to Doris. Eliz-
abeth Gray began to see that more
and more clearly as the weeks went
by. But she was too far in the slough
of deception now to be able to extri-
cate herself. Passionate letters
passed between them and she poured
out all her longing and all her love
to this lover who, unknowing whence
the letters came, could never be hers. |
"He is so serious" pOuted Doris
one day. And he talks of such
heavy things! They make my head
ache. And l have to pretend to I'M
derstand- because of this silly plot. !

that night she prayed for his sake
that he might not marry Doris.
The prayer seemed to be strange
ly answered. For the next week
Doris came to her, after a longer in
tervaI than usual. She sat down at
her feet and began patting her hand.
What is it, Doris?" asked Eliza
beth.
Il don't love Charlie" Doris burst
out. 1T was all a mistake. l have
found the man I love, and he loves
me. So you will not have any more

Elizabeth sat down that night with
a heavy heart, and wrote to Charlie.
Doris was going home; she loved an
other; he must forget her and never
write to her nor try to see her again.
She did not sleep that night, and
went to work with a heavy heart
next day.
That evening Charlie called, and
she was totally Unprepared for it,
He came in with white face.
81 haven't been to see you since
met Doris, he said. 81 can't forgive
myself for neglecting an old friend in
my happiness, as l supposed it to me.

Elizabeth nodded. She could not
manage to utter the trivial sympa-
thy in her heart.

They smiled and they marched on,

never hear the shouting and the cheering

Comes Marching Home Again
1t was fine, not because the spectacle
of men marching away 10 kill or be
killed, is fine, but because the great ma
jority of them THOUGHT they were re-
spending to first service and the great
est to be given the flag at the head OF

The ready, cheerful response of Michi-
gan's men TO the grave orders from

Americanism.
Ii was the ready, cheerful response OF
Americans -
All we can do is TO God-speed them to-
day, swell with pride for them and hope
for the day of another kind of American
ism; a day of enlightenment, day Of
leadership among the nations in the
name of Christian civilization, when the
mistaken idea of patriotism TO which
these men in Grayling, in common with
men of Europe, have responded, will have
been driven from the face of the earth.
But for the wholesale butchering in

A court of nations might exist today

This court of nations is a world-patrl-

suggestion ever advanced because 1t
calls upon the highest sense and the
loftiest spirit of the world.
A court of nations is all that is need
ed, with the exception Of world police
force TO enforce the orders of the court
against irresponsible nations such as
Mexico. to wipe out war or the posslbll-
ity of war at any time.
Could the suggestion have been accept
ed five years ago, how vastly different
would the situation be today on two con-
tinents.
If il could be accepted today, how
much better off would two continents be
