 Enderly's eyes with wild, wondering surprise.
 "YOu-yOu," she murmured breath lessly. You are not Charley, at an!" and she moved to release herself.
 ''Oh, yes I am." smiled Enderly, let ting her go, reluctantly.
 But not my Charley! You see-I- was expecting my brOther!" And her slim hand crept up and pressed tight over her mouth.
 Just then there was 8 swift step on the gravel drive and they turned on the intruder quickly.
 Hello! That you, Sis" he asked eagerly. Then he reached out und caught her about the shoulders. hug ging he. with a laugh. as he inspected Enderly curiOusly. Why. it's Endor- ly," he said, extending his hand Member me? Member Charley Stanton, the kid you coached on the fOre-hand drive? Sis was only twelve then-awful skinny legs! 'Member?' he chuckled on.
 And then it was that Enderly re- membered the Stantons and the two Stanton children. But why the secret rendezvous, brothers and sistersY" asked Enderly curiOusly. ..
 Young Stanton grinned at his sister a little shamefacedly. You've been away and didn't hear, l guess. about, yours truly. Darn fOOI-awful mess-- kicked out by Oakland all that sort of thing. But Sis here stuck to me and l went away and made good, just 10 spite 'em. Going through town and just had to see the loyal lady for mo- meE.. Got to go tO Boston tonight. Taxi down the rOad-what do you say, to walking down with me?"
 So Enderly sauntered along with them. listening to their chatter. The. hoy was full of his iOb and his rising success. but the girl was silent for the most part. She couldn't rub out the feel of Endprly's kisses long enough to concentrate on anything her talkaiVe brother was saying.
 After young St;.ntOn had gone, the two of them stood there in the road and inspected 0.ch other silently. Then they turned without a word and walked back to the steps of the club house.
 Are you coming in?' she asked.
 Not tonight" he said. 1t would spoil it all. Perhaps tomorrow Win you be here tomorrow afrern00n?"
 Il don't know, I suppose sO,' she an SWered absently.
 Perhaps you think I owe you an apology" he said. but Pm not sorry. sO l c;in't very well apologize, can I?'' < ''I suppose not" she agreed with q little shrug. Tt was all mistake, and anyway-it would be terrible for a girl to have to face the fact that she'd kissed AIan against his will" And with q slight laugh she skipped up the steps and disappeared within.
 The next afternoon Enderly found Stanton senior in the locker room at the club.
 Well, Charley" exclaimed that in- dividual genially, back among your own again? No more to dwell tn heather lands, eh7 Had any golf

Conserve Enthusiasm.

Are you boy or girl who becomes very enthusiastic about some nice thing you want to do? Be careful not to be so enthusiastic in starting new undertaking that you have no energy left for carrying 1t through to com pletiOn.

 The attention of Connecticut women is being called by the WOman's Com mittee of the Connecticut State COun ell of Defense to a sentiment which is gaining favor throughout the country for wearing of insignia instead of mourning by Americans who have lost members of their family in the war. By vote of the committee the attention of the women of this state is being called to the cordial Endorsement of President Wilson for the plan.
 The President has written: "I do entirely approve of the action taken by the WOman's Committee (Of the Council of National Defense) in execu- tive seSsiOn--namely, that a three inch black band should be worn upon which gilt star may be placed for each member of the family whose life is lost in the service and that the band shall be worn on the left arm. I hope and believe that thoughtful people every where will approve of this action, and + hope you will be kind enough to make the suggestion of the committee public with statement that it has my cordial indorSement."
