make them go, that's all. I've been
too busy for the last two years to

but, now I'm home for good, mean to
clear them Off" An outward gesture
of the officers hand told Polly he was
not in sympathy with MacKenzie's
threat "You can't judge of the situa-
ton, Bob" Marcus went on, because
you've been gone for years. Evelyn

The speaker wheeled his horse and
pointed his riding whip straight at the
Hopkins shanty; and POlly's curly

Grave Mistake to Leave Business
Position in a General Cloud Of
Unpleasant Feeling.

The man or woman of small am
bition and smaller achievement feels
that it is his privilege and pleasure
always to leave position he is quit

ing. So long as be remains in his
position he puts up with unpleasant
ness, stiles his dislikes for the men
over him and does his best to grin
and bear things. When he realizes
that he can take his destiny In his
own hands, and ask to have his name
stricken off the pay roll, he takes
intense satisfaction in airing his pre1u-
dices and showing every one in the
place just how he feels about things.
He undoes in a day all that he has
gained in the months or years that he
has worked there.
The man or woman with ambition

CHAPTER II.

About the time Polly Hopkins began
to repair the shack roof, Evelyn Rob
ertson came into the room where her
mother. sat reading. The girl was
dressed to go out and was drawing n
pair of gloves over her ringed fingers.
"Where are you going, Eve?' in
quired the lady. st seems TO me that
you're running out altogether too
mucn. There's your piano! You
haven't practiced in months. Now
don't blame me, Eve, if, when Marcus
asks you to play, you fall flat"
A dull red ran into the girls cheeks,
but she made no reply as she
smoothed the wrinkles from her
gloves.
"The good Lord knows" continued
the mother irrtably, that I've kept at
you enough. Now Mare and Robert
are home, how are you going to enter
tain them? Men demand so much"
The experiences of the past two
years had taught Evelyn that lesson.
1t had been demand, demand and more
demanding ever since. on girlish i'm
pulse. she had secretly married Oscar
Bennett.
"And you heard what Marcus said
last night about the Silent City folks"
went on Mrs. Robertson. "What you
want of that Hopkins girl l don't un-
derstand. Marcus says her father is
the most dangerous man among the
lot of them, and the girl herself is
queer"
"Oh, don't talk about the squatters
all the time" cried Evelyn. Il hate
the very sound of the word. What's
Polly Hopkins, anyway? Now
Marcus is home"
Darling" the mother interrupted
eagerly, "it has always been my hope
that you and Marc would grow to care
for each other He is so rich and so
handsome Now, isn't he?"
A groan almost leapt from Evelynss
lips. What fool she had been Here
she was married to man she loathed
n man she was ashamed of! The
realization that another man, rich

Power Of Young Men.

What power is resurrected young
man! He becomes power in any
calling or business In which he may
employ his best talents. He is pow
er in the church. and the world needs
such young men today. He is the pow-
er which will bring this nation through
its time of testing, and make 1t bles-
ing, not only to its own people, but to
all the nations of the earth. Resur-
rections are miracles which never
cease. The spirit Of the living God
is working in the hearts and minds of
raen and women to lift them out of sin
and death, into the glorious life and
liberty of the children Of God. May
that spirit find response in your heart
today.

Back and yet farther back she slipped

on every hand. Is it not a good thing for the newspaper printing trades union to do likewise? In this day of industrial economy, when lowering the cost of pro- dueing the necessities of life means so much to the welfare of mankind, does it not seem strange that trades unions should have in their code of laws regu- Iations designed exclusively for the pur- pose of creating jobs, and not producing usable production for the employer?"
 <, Mir. Williams declared that while at one time "job rules' might have been valuable in preventing unemployment, there was no need for them now, since In all large cities there is at present short age of printers, pressmen and stereo- typers.
 In view of the condition cited, Mir. William continued, there is no justifica- ton for the 44-heur week in newspaper
 offieA and the full force of the associa- ttion will continue against it. Publishers. tn- order to protect their own interests, 1t was pointed out, should see that the full quota of apprentices is carried ill each department.
 A few papers have reduced their prices, said MT. Williams. but results in the way of increased circulation have been negll- gible, and any thought of reducing adver- Using rates is absurd, he added when it IS considered that the present cost of neWsprint is 100 per cent higher than before the war.
 In conclusion, MT. Williams spoke at length on the work of the associations 1 committees on newsprint, postal rates, federal taxes, advertising agents and ra- dio investigations.
 The business coming before the con- vention included resolutions declaring that the pending tariff laws proposed
 futy- on sulphite pulp is unjustifed and
 that the association should join in the | efforts of the periodical publishers to | have second class postage rates in the
 present postal zones reduced to the rates
