 He called up the house cf Jim Sar' gent, and asked for Gail

 All right" was the cheerful reply. "I'll be there in a minute.'
 He had been very sly! He was tre- mendously pleased with himself! He had kept out of his voice all the long ing, and all the exultation, and all the love! He would not trust even one vibration of his secret to cold tele- phone wire!
 He set the door of the yestry open wide. Within the church, the organlst had conquered that baff1ing run ln the mighty prelude of Bach, and the great dim spaces up amid the arches were pulsing in ecstasy with the tremendous harmony. Outside, upon the back ground of the celestial strain, there rose a futtering, twittering, a coo ing. The doves of spring had returned to the vestry yard.
 Just a moment and Gail appeared, poised in the doorway, with a filmy pink scarf about her shoulders, sim pie frock of delicate gray upon her slender figure, her brown hair waving about her oval face, faint flush upon her cheeks, her brown eyes sparkling. her red lips smiling up at him.
 He had intended to tell her much, but instead, he folded her in his arms, and she nestled there, content. For a long, happy moment they stood, lost to the world of thought; and then she looked up at him, and laughed.

 He laughed with her; then he grew grave, but there was the light of the great happiness in his gravity.

 That was part of what she had known.

"The decision does not lay in your hands, Doctor Boyd" drawled nasal voice with an unconcealed sheer in it. It was clean-shaven old Joseph G. Clark, who was not disturbed, in so much as the parting of one hair, by all the adverse criticism of him which had filled column upon column of the daily press for the past few days. "The rector has never, in the history of Market Square church, been given the control of it's finances. He has in- varlably been hired to preach the gos- pei"
 Sargent, Cunningham, Manning, and even Van Plocn looked at Clark in surprise. He was not given to open reproof. Chisholm manifested no as- tonishment. He sat quietly in his chair. his fingers idly drumming on the edge of the table, but his mutton chop beard was pink from the red dening of the skin beneath.

 the rectori" announced that young man emphatically. and Jim Sargent looked up at him with a jerk of his head. Rev. Smith Boyd was pale this afternoon, but there was a something shining through his pallor which made the face alive; and the some thing was not temper. Rufus Man ming, clasping his silvery beard with a firm grip, smiled encouragingly at the tall young orator "I have said that have, so far as I am concerned, re- linquished the building of the cathe- dral, the rector went on. For this there are two reasons. The first is that its building will bring us farther away from the very purpose for which the church was founded; the worship of God with an humble and a contrite heart l am ready to confess that found, on rigid self-analysis, my lead ing motive in urging the building of the new cathedral to have been van ity. l am also ready to confess, on behalf of my congregation and vestry, that their leading motive was vanity!"

 S"Splendor is no longer the exclusive property of religion, resumed the rec tor, paying no attention to the inter ruption. If I thought, however, that the building of that cathedral would promote the spread of the gospel in a degree commensurate with the out lay, I would still be opposed to the erection of the building; for the money does not belong to us!"
 "Go right on and develop our con science" approved Manning. smiling up at the old walnut-beamed ceiling with it's carved cherub brackets.
 "The money belongs to Vedder court" declared the rector; ito the distorted moral cripples which Mar ket Square church. through the acci- dent of commerce, has taken under her wing. Gentlemen, in the recent revelations concerning the vast indus trial interests of the world, l have seen the whole blackness of modern corporate methods; and Market Square church is a corporation! wish to ask you, in how far the Mar ket Square church has been swayed in it's commercial dealings, by moral considerations"
 He paused, and glanced from man tC man of his vestry. Sargent and Man ming, the former of whom knew hi! plans and the latter of whom had beer waiting tor them to mature, smiled a him in perfect accord.

CAPTAIN PRAISES
CREWS BEHAVIOR
ON THESSAL0NIKI

New York, Jan. s.-The story of
how the crew of the Greek steamer
Thessa1oniki, before abandoning the
vessel on Jan. 5, worked for 10 days
in from three to four feet of water in
a desperate effort to keep steam in
the ships boilers and work the
pumps. was told today when Captain
Goulandris and the crew of 80, ar
rived on the steamship Perugia.
Captain GouIandris said the behav-
Tor of<1ais men was SO heroic that he
did not. give up hope of bringing the
Thessalonil<i into New York until the
coal supply was entirely exhausted
on Jam 5. He declined to comment
on statements by some of the Thes-
saloniki's lit passengers that the cap
tain had refused to send out wireless
calls for assistance after the steamer
had sprung several leaks.
The Perugia brought II sacks of
mail removed from the Thessaloniki.

seem imperative. We should GER
tainly be as quickly able to do this as
cur warning competitors, and by that
time also we should have been able to
familiarize the rest of the world with
American products of all kinds. In
deed, the flood of American products
of every kind that has penetrated Eur
rope in the past seventeen months has
been the highest kind of advertising
for us, the important fact being that
Europe has paid the expenses. There
is lacking evidence that large quaint
ties of goods are being made up to be
dumped on us when peace comes,
though it would be vain to- believe
that we can. hope to escape the com
erents return to peaceful trade pur-
suits. If, however, the war ends very
shortly, it is well to bear in mind that
we, in a greater degree than any 9th
er country in the world, possess the
materials for restocking ola twe9ad fac
tories and rebuilding ruined cities.
F'urtherm ore, it is we'll to remember
that in the past two years enormous
crops, sold at high prices the own
foreigners, and the possession of large
quantities of foreign gold, we have a
basis for prosperity esteemed sufn-
cient in earlier days for a widespread
boom. Perhaps, in view ofkthe large
business already booked ana the won
derfu1ly good prospects that unfold
themselves to us we need to guard
ourselves as carefully from oversan-
guine anticipation, seeking expressi on,
perhaps, in unbridled speculation, as
a fshort time ago we needed to avoid
being unduly affected by the pessiInis-
tic predictions called forth by the out
break of the greatest war in history.
