Certain OF the clergyman's COM
muniCations--as IL true OF the

In the "Wonder.Heart letters
written by Mrs. Mills there are
some known as the Sweet Pea
notes" In each of these he would
enclose a sweet pea blossom. A
letter from Seal Harbor, Maine, in
August, reads.

In the first letter written by Mrs
Mills she has taken her text from
1.-THE Mother Of All Living" a move
of Africa by Robert Keable, author
Of the much discussed frank book
"Sim0n Called Peter"
The book Is . fearless delineatiOr
Of love between man and woman, q
presentation Of primitive emotion
with a background In East Africa
Mrs. Mills letter dwells at length
on what she has read I'm this book
and from Il she draws comparisons
with her own love for Hall.
This Is the letter:
dearest, how fast I can read.
remember, too. honey mine. what y
lot there Is to talk about after read
ing the book.
Pamela is clever, the kind Of q
woman that keeps a man guessing
She knew her lover Chris from the
beginning-she saw in Cecil what
Chris loved-would she really have
let him touch her body or would
she recoil at the last moment and
be disguised or disappointed in him
She meant to have him-fair OF
foul, and she was too clever to let
Cecil have him-for didn't she read
he was a man worth having. But
not until Cecil made him so. He Is
the winner, for Cecil's great, pure
love made him perfect, but not for
Cecil. For Pamela.
And Cecil's great, all.knowing
love told her he was unworthy OF
her love. Perhaps II she had never
known Of his trek with Pam (al'
though she would have found out
the real Chris some time) she would
cast everything aside and take what
she thought she was getting-a true
! noble Chris. But he wasn't then
Love made him what he was in the
end-a true lover. But, in finding
himself, he lost what he priced most
-Cecil's wonder love. Oh. Of course
he was true to Cecil. physically, but
he was tempted; and a real man
| never can be. How I hated him.
Surely across the darkness Of the
night Cecil's God was guiding her
her love made her realize why she
told Chris to wait. He was un,
worthy Of such a complete love. RE
