Young Author
Writes Clever
Water rPicture
tBy Louise Barsasni, Eastern
High School.)

Slowly the moon breaks
through the darkening skies and
casts her silver beams over the
water; while the tiny waves
seem to struggle in an effort to
cttch the silver beams.
One after another the stars
peep through the skies and blink
their golden eyes at the world
below. This is the time when
the fairies play. and it seems as
though the fairy queen had
touched the sand on the be ach
and turned 1t into shining gold,
Softly and sweetly the waves
sing their magic songs as they
wash upon the silent sands; and
one can almost see the fading
forms of fairies dancing lightly
near the waves. And then the
mist coming from afar and
spreading over the waves, wraps
this scene in it's gray garments
OF chill and moisture.

LxXXIII - A DIsQUIETING
ANNOUNCEMENT


DR.. Langwell stood quite still.
while the imprint of Nancy's blow
began to show red across his face.
The fact that he remained silent
changed Nancy's fury to a species
Of fear.
She back ID slowly away from
him. her eyes fixed on his face in I.
kind of fascination. She could read
nothing in that calm expressionless
mask which. he seemed to have
slipped on over the embers OF pas
sion which had glowed brightly in
his eyes a moment before.
How dare you!" whispered
Nancy, feeling the ridiculous made
quacy of it.
He made no reply for a moment,
and when he did speak, it was in a
euriously even tone.
I'm not trying to emulate any
Desperate Desmond of the melo-
dramas when l tell you that some
day you will pay a pretty price for
what you have just done"
Nancy managed a laugh.
"'Coises" says the Wilton! My
very dear doctor. did no girl ever
before slap you for kissing herr"
He smiled reluctantly.
My kisses are generally received
with more appreciation"
Then give me credit for being a
new experience" suggested Nancy.
And one not wholly unpleasant
questioningIy.
so new and so pleasant that /
could not dream of abandoning II.
You said you were returning to New
York tomorrow, did you not? l also
am going East
Nancy stared at him in amaze
ment.
Surely not on my account?"
Ostensibly-no. 1t can easily be
arranged. however"
Il don't like it," declared Nancy.
He smiled.
II thought you wouldn't"
And therefore you're doing it
deliberately to be hateful"
After what happened tonight, 1
have no consideration for you
whatever" he told her coolIy.
Once before, on different grounds,
We declared war. The occasion for
the declaration of our hostilities
has since been removed, but an
other. even more pressing, has been
substituted. 1 warn you 1 give you
no quarter"
That is obvious. Give me credit
for a little Intelligence" said Nancy
hippantly. Il can't truthfulIy say
that 1 would voluntarily choose you
for an enemy. but 1 will admit that
you are foe worthy of my steel. "
dare say you will send out a
call for help when you find your
SELF In tight place." he said with
a slight sneer
1 do"
Your husband?"
Il have always fought my own
battles. I won't start asking for
assistance now. don't consider
you sufficiently dangerous in spite
of what Connie Stanley says" she
added with fine bravado.
His brows lifted interroRatfyely,
DO 1 know Mrs. Stanley?"
No, but she knows you, and she
tells me you are a bold bad man. "
You fiatter me. / did not know
that my reputation had preceded me
to the East"
According to Connie, you have
already left trail of broken hearts
there"
His complacent smile was indica-
tion that her fattery was hayin.
the desired effect. It seemed AL
most unbelievable to Nancy that a
man Of his mental attachments
would respond to such crude treat
ment, but she felt relieved that his
good humor was being restored be-
yond the shadow of a doubt.
His parting words as he bade her
goodnight proved, however, that
she hsd not won the engagement:

Twentieth Century tomorrow. I'll
have my secretary see about reser-
vations-'

YOU NEED THE CHURCH

No less a man than Johnson
 said, "To be of no church is
 dangerous. Religion * * will glide by degrees out of the mind, unless it be invigorated
 and reimressed by external ordinances, by stated calls to : worship, and the salutary in- fluence of. f.example." t. r You are a ffourfold being. You are not only physicaEand mental and a social but also spiritual. Most folks: look out for the first three sides of their nature but all too few the fourth side. Work, sports, food, clothing shelten and soaon, are provided for the physical man Schools, books etc. are provided for the stimulation and develop ment of our mental capacities. Social life in abundance is provided for the development of the social side I of human nature But unless the spiritual side of your life is develoed you are at best not more than three fourthS of a man.
 Now the church stands dis tinctive1y among the institu- tions of the world for the deve- lopment of the spiritual side of human life.
 And religion is both personal and social. You might be a b1n a b1e tO 6nVeIODi the personal side of religion in your fe to some degree without the aid of the church. but you will find it exceedingly difficult to develope the social side without the aid of the church.
 You reed the church forthe f''1nst a1l round development of your life.

There! Ladies! at the right!
Here is the place of which / was

most beautiful places in this whole
section"
Mr.. Jones threw out his hands
with regal gesture as if he were

description Of the neighborhood.

Gated, but saw nothing except a
stretch Of pasture land.

the house were across the road this
property would be doubled in value.
That is the pasture across the road.
