We're all gathered in the assembly

groups to give an exhibition of
their talents. Grace Gates gave a
speech "MuleS and Bees" which
was somewhat amusing, and John

done something and the class had
sung Wake, Freshmen, Wake"
they were each presented with a
green badge. They were then lock-
ed up in the English room, from
which they were taken, two at a
time, blindfolded and led to the
gym where they were made to go
through everything that the in
genious minds of the sophomores
could contriye. Except for break

no serious damage was done; and
they adjourned to the domestic

not in any way affect the regard I feel for Miss Sterling" spoke Blair stanchly. "Mr. Morse, I must insist on having a decision from her lips alone"
 Alton Morse arose with a peculiar expression on his face. 'T will convey your message to my ward," he said icily, "or rather my dead friends daughter" and left the room. He re- turned shortly bearing a folded scrap of paper.
 Miss Sterling declines to see you," he reported. "This is her only and final word, and Blair bowed his head in despair as he read: "Mr. Morse all your courtesy and regard, but we must never meet again."
 Without another word Blair left the house. Dusk had come down, but as he slowly passed the garden space he glanced back. One upper window at the side of the house showed light.
 Blair proceeded on his way, but 90 mysti6ed by the strange incident that after he had turned the next cor ner he reversed and confronted the stranger.
 He was a man over fifty, bearded and bronzed, and wore a great blazing diamond in his tie and another of un- usual size on one finger. Two men crossed the street, evidently attracted by these signs of Opulence. When within twenty feet of the corner they suddenly sprung upon him.
 Blair hastened to the rescue. He drove one of the men prostrate with a vigorous blow. The other had pis- tol aimed at the stranger. Blair struck up his hand, but himself felt a stinging contact in one arm. AS the men dispersed the victim seized Blair by the hand with the words:
 "You have saved my life, young man. Why! what is this blood! You are wounded !"
 "Only a slight scratch" declared Blair negligently, but the other hailed cab. solicitonsly attended his res cuer, and. arriving at his hotel at once sent for a surgeon.
 The latter dressed a slight flesh wound, and the stranger secured a room for Blair connecting with his own. When Blair awoke in the morn ing he noticed his host with startled eyes gazing at some articles he had placed on a stand.
 'What is this-where did you get it?" he inquired, holding up photo

ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT
 EDITOR ENDORSES
 |NTERCHURCH MOVE

In commenting editorially on speech made by the Rev. Dr. R. W. Peach of Newark, N. J., before the Interchurch World Movement council in Philadelphia recently, in which he declared that there were 100000 super fiuous churches, costing $500, ,000. in the United States, the Arkansas Democrat, of Little Rock, Ark, had some pointed things to say on the situ. ation, commenting the stand of Dr. Peach for the elimination of useless churches and uniting or cooperating of denominational bodies.
 There are many rural communi- ties," the editorial states. fin which there are from four to six half-starved churches that might well sell all but one of their buildings, and pay one minister enough to support family in decency and self-respect.
 "Denominational differences, in which we imagine that Christ would have little interest if he were to, return to earth, might well be sub- merged in the joy of building up one strong community institution of dig nifty and power nt to do real service for the mon, women and little children living within the field of its influence"

 Sidney Blair had entered the gloomy, old-fashioned city mansion bearing the name on its door plate "Alton Morse" with an ardent heart and high hopes. He sat now in it's library confronted by its owner. whose grim, forbidding face chilled him, whose disclosures were disconcerting.
 Two months previous while visiting his sister at a seminary, he had met Lucia Sterling. The acquaintanceship had blossomed into mutual friendly in- terest and, on his part at least, into genuine love. She had told him that she lived with MT. Morse, that her parents were both dead and that the attorney, because her father had been a former client. had practically adopt ed her. Lucia had consented to his calling on her when she left school and she had told Mr. Morse of the ex- pected visitor.
 Blair had been ushered into the H. brary of the house when he sent m his card. and sinister faced, its occu- pant had received him coldly.
 T know who you are, and of your family" said Mr. Morse. q also fancy I know the object of your call. It IS Miss Sterling"
 "Yes," replied Blair. q hope she is we'll"
 "She is far from that" replied the lawyer gravely. "Do not be alarmed, sir. 1t is mental, rather than physical ailment. Miss Sterling has received some disclosures relative to her past or rather that of her parents, tnat have been considerable of shock. She knows of your intention to call and has authorized me to see you m her stead"

 A strange emotion was manifest in the mans face as Blair's story came out His face hardened as he mutter- ed the name of Alton Morse. Come with me-" he spoke, Eff you feel able There is something you have an in- terest in."
 An hour later they faced Alton Morse, pale, cringing, in terror With. in the hour Blair knew tl;lt the stran. ger of the garden was Roliert Slpsting the father of Lucia.
 It seemed that three years before he had sent from Australia; a fortune for his orphan daughter. which Morse had appropriated. He did this when he was supposed to be dying. Morse held back the fortune and prevented Lucia from encouraging Blair by mak, ing her believe that she was the daugh- ter of a convicted assassin.
 Alton Morse was forced to make res titution. It was double blessing that Robert Sterling bestowed upon the ac- cepted lover of Lucia, for. he owed to him his life as well as the happiness of his daughter.
