of the high-school boys, who were
unanimously devoted to Carol. She

She opened the door softly and
stepped out, directly in the path of
the startled youths. Full of her hos

as parsonage people need to be.
"Come in, boys" she said cordially

The appearance of a guardian angel
summonlng them to paradise could not
have confounded them more utterly.
They stumbled all over one another In
trying to back away from her. She
laughed softly.
Don't be bashful. We enjoyed 1t
very much. Yes, come right in"
Undoubtedly they would have de-
clined If only they could have thought
of the proper method of doing so. AS
it was, they only succeeded in sham
bling through the parsonage door, In
stinctlvely conceallng their half
smoked cigarettes beneath their fin
gers.
Aunt Grace ushered them into the
pleasant living room, and ran up to
summon her nieces.
Left alone, the boys looked at one
another with amazement and with
grief, and the leader, the touching
tenor, said with true musical fervor,

the sarcasm and the ire of Fairy was
that Of the Slaughter-house quartet.

This was the one subject of dispute
fDetween the twins.
"Oh, please don't. Carol. it doe'

''You mustn't be narrow-minded
Larkie." Carol argued. "We're minis

And on this point Carol stood firr
