CHAPTER Viii.

Saturday evening it was the custom
Of the Bryants to entertain the rector
at dinner.
Now, in his absence, it was the as
sistant rector who dined in the paneled
Jacobean dining Of the Bryant
house, swallowing much unctuous die
tatlon as to church policy with his
dinner.
Not that Ward was mild. But he
had an easy way of listening to the
advice of his various influential parish
toner's and then going ahead and doing
as he liked. In nonessentials he al.
ways yielded. To him the church was
so much bigger than it's ritual.
That evening Mrs. Bryant had taken
up the question Of women in the choir.
"Frankly, MI. Ward" she said, ig-
noring her fish, II do not approve Of
1t. It's the feminist movement, I tell
you. Before long they'll want to be
on the vestry." ,
Ward glanced up, half smiling. The
pear-shaped pearl, which usually hung
at his hostess withered throat, was,
naturally, not there. From the pearl
to the parish house, from the parish
house to Elinor-thus in two leaps Of
Wards mind he was far from the SUBJ
ject in hand.
"As president Of the Chancel soci-
ety." said Mrs. Bryant, las honorary
president Of the Woman's guild, I pro-
test against women in the choir"
Back to the choir with a jump came
Wards Grant mind.
II wonder" Ward reflected, "wheth-
er a matter Of tradition and custom
will prevent women from singing in
the heavenly choir" :,
Mrs. Bryant stabbed at her fish. But
she had not finished. There were
many things about Saint Jude's that
did not please her. The burial Of old
Hilary Kingston had been one. She
seized on that.
"A non-communicant," she snapped.
IAN infidel, an atheist! The daughter
Is living alone up there at this min
ute. 1t isn't respectable. It's a bad
example to the girls in the village. The
house is full Of men all the time"
"That must be a mistake"
1T is quite true. Servants talk, you
know. What can you expect? Raised
out Of the church, with no belief, and,
Of course, no moral instruction."
Ward bent forward over the table.
"That is a very serious statement,
Mrs. Bryant" His eyes were like
steel. "Of course you are not basing
it merely on what you hear from sery.
ants?"
Mrs. Bryant flushed, a purplish spot
in the center Of each sagging cheek.
Il do not gossip with the servants"
she said, shortly. 1T is common talk.
And there are other things. Machines
come and 60 from the house at queer
hours Of the night. The girl spends a
great deal Of money. Where does she
get It? Where, for that matter, did old

1c daWned even on Talbot after q
time that her solicitude was for none
Of them. When he realized It, at last,
he sat back with folded arms and
frowning brows. Here was Inockery,
for sure; old Hilary's daughter, reared
on pure violence, and in love with a
parson old Hilary's daughter and
successor, defying the band in it's
hour Of need, and quoting a divine
trust, in extenuation!
In view of her attitude, there seemed
to be nothing to do.
"Wel give it up, of course" said
Lethbridge, after a pause.
There had never been any drinking
In old Hilary's house. Only abstain
ers were ever taken into the band. But
1t was the custom of the two older men
to remain at the table over their cigars,
giving Walter and Elinor q half-hour
together. That night, when Elinor
rose from the table, Huff, although he
rose with the others, made no move
to follow her. She looked back from
the doorway, a slim, almost childish
figure, with beseeching eyes.
"You must all try to think kindly of
me-" she said wistfully. II care for
you as much as I ever did. You are all
I have, you three. 1t is only that +
have been thinking"
o For the first time since the organi-
cation Of the band, there was quarrel
ing that night in old Hilary's paneled
library. At the end of an hour Walter
Huff flung out Of the door, white with
fury. He stumbled through the gar
den toward the garage, muttering as
he went. In the rose alley he met Ell.

II was waiting for you," she said
simply.
Hufr stood before her, and the anger
left his face.
"You're the one thing in all the
world I felt sure Of" His voice was
heavy with despair.

"Elinor, how far have things gone

She recoiled.

"You think about him."
She looked down into the valley.

Quite suddenly he crushed her to
him. It was as if he meant to drive
away this barrier between them by
sheer force of his love for her. But,
although she held up her face for his
kiss, he released her as suddenly,
without it.
"You're crazy about him." he said
thickly. "I'm not blind. I'll get him
