CHAPTER Iv.-Gerald and Christie

There was somewhat hectic silence
for several moments. Madame Lenore
could scarcely conceal her contempt
for the crudeness of this puritanical
Englishman. MYRTLE herself felt as

good fellow enough at heart, felt

quite content to drift into danger; he

SHALL WE LISTEN TO BOBBY!

AS Bobby and mother reached the
conclusion of confidential talk
Aunt Ellen came into the dining room
and caught few words of the con
yersation. She looked mildly disap-
proving, and as soon as Bobby was of
for school she demonstrated with he,

"When / was young, Alice, child
rem were never allowed to bring
home tales about school and the
teacher" .,
"You mean, don't you, that they
were never allowed to repeat them to
their elders? I'll warrant the child
rem discussed the days events among
themselves and not always to the
teachers credit, either"
ooh, well, of course children will
"To be sure they WILL" laughed
Bobby's mother. cas- long as they are
creatures of intelligence they are
going to think about what happens
in school, and as long as they think
they are going to talk to somebody
about the things they are thinking of
Refusing the listen to a child's com
ments and questions, does not stop
his thinking, it only leaves him to
draw his own faulty conclusions.

protested, 81 think it is wrong to en-

Monsieur Christopher, l detest him!"
In the showroom outside, neither Of
the two young men was particularly
disposed for conversation. Christopher
felt distinct return Of his hrst appre-

Of its wisdom. Anything In the ma
ture Of an explanation between the
two was rendered impossible by the
smallness of the room and the pres
