rang. Then eleven, but still no bell. That seemed strange. I has tened over to the church, only a few people were there-no children. Everybody turned around and stared while I took a back seat in a corn7 CT next to my brother. Presently woman came in with a child I judged to be ten or eleven. She was very prim, precise woman, but as t'e child, hanging on to her 1Io; 'ier's arm, turned her head at every third step, "sizing me up," the thought came to me, "I wonder w1o that 'gawky' kid isl" No soon- CT had she taken her seat than she jumped up and came over to me. Hello, my name is Frances and tIat's your second name too, l know, cause mother said so." Such, was her greeting. In the few minutes before service began the main facts impressed on my mind were that she was eight years old, would be nine next year, and she would call for me for school the next morning.
 Church was finally over and a few children came for Sunday school. A tall, slim, dark girl was introduced to me as Gertrude Lid dicoar. Gracious" l thought, CT wonder if she'll ever stop grow ing!" Three or four other girls then entered who were promptly end formally introduced after which King Silence reigned. Looking out of the window for something 10 say We spied a girl running at full speed, with golden hair all flying after her. "Oh, there's FL len with her hair in curls," whis- pered Gertrude. She's hurryfng today so she can meet the preachers kids before Sunday school begins" We all laughed. The door opened and Ellen, not noticing me, Wihts- pered, "Where's the preachers kids? Gertrude sent out warn- ing. "My, she must be an awful tomboy!" was my next thought. Tn few minutes the ceremonies were over and it was time for Sun day school to begin. Seventeen was ths number present. "In Seward we had twice as many and it isn't nearly as large as skagway," said to one of the girls She made no comment. 'Wiu I ever get used to them?" I asked mysel. '"There're so different from Seward girls"
 Needless to say, my first impres- sions have all been changed.
