 Colonel Roosevelt remained at Londiani with Cunninghame and myself. intending to wait for the coming of MT. and Mrs. Carl Akeley of the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, and John T. McCutcheon, famous cartoonist of the Chicago Tribune. who had hoped to see him before his start for the Uasin Guisho.
 An hour after the main "safari" had started, telegram arrived for Colonel Roosevelt to say that Akeley party could not reach Londiani in time to see him. Colonel Roosevelt delayed his de- parture no longer but mounted his favorite horse, Tranquility, and rode after the safari. He was ac- companied by his favorite native gun bearer, Bakhari.
 The day following his departure from Londiani was Theodore Roose- velt's 51st birthday. Kermit had spent his o0th birthday hunting near Lake Hannington, and had then al. ready killed all the major and most | dangerous kinds of African big game.

He was then t proceed to Entebbe and Kampala i Uganda to complete the plans 10 the trip into the Congo and dow the Nile.

The Decision Msdge Made About

 Not that there was any memory Of speech or word in all my asso' ciation with Hugh Grantland which would have caused me to lower my eyes ever so slightly before either Juniors clear gaze or his fathers critical one. But there were mem- ories of that unusual friendship, which, while altogether innocent were vet strangely disturbing, even poignant, if l accepted as truth the letter in my hands.
 I felt that l must drag them out from the recesses of my soul, face them souarely and forever banish them unless I could find in them some spark of an idea which might aid me in solving the mystery Of the letter Major Grantland had written me.
 My little lads voice sounded again.
 But want you, lama"
 The pleading tones tugged at my heart insistently. But something even more important than my de- sire to think out my problem, was now involved I am trying to teach Junior to know what teasing will never secure the granting of re- quest, and my voice was firm though tender, as I answered him.
 "If You Tease"
 Junior" I said slowly and clear iv, If you tease, I shall not come to play with you all day. But If YOU obey me now. it will be only 4 few minutes before l come to you"
 There was silence of a few seconds while Junior evidently weighed the pros and cons of my ultimatum. Then with an audible little sigh which came near to breaking down my determination, he accepted the inevitable.
 "All right" he said soberly, and I heard his reluctant little feet walking slowly toward the stairs.

Letter from Alice Whitney 10 Alice
 Grave Hamilton, Continued.
 Going back 10 the time when Les Ne was married, Mother dear, and found out that Karl had for years been collecting that string of pearls that was the beginning of all my troubles. At that tune, in my fool- ish head was born the idea that if managed to find some way for Karl to give these pearls which in way were a rosary of the years of Karrs life, to Leslie, he would be forever grateful to me. At that time I did not realize that perhaps the sight of those pearls about my sls- ter's neck would pnloose such emo- tions of jealousy that l would not be nyseif.
 Ionly thought that the planning and putting into execution of ways and means in the giving to Leslie of

 A Wild Rose Memory
 An exigency of our war work had put me under his escort along a woodland path bordering the rail- road. T. was June, and the scent of wild roses--it seemed as if the delicate odor was fresh in my nos triIs even now-was all around us The tall young officer turned his fashlight upon the bushes beside the path, pluclled an exquisite cluster, wrapped it in his handker' chief to protect my fingers from the thorns and handed it to me.
 "They were my mothers favorite flower" he said simply, and in his voice was the heartbreak of boy who had been forbidden to see his mother in life or death.
 There was something more subtle | in his voice also, an infection which told me that never before had be coupled his thoughts Of his mother with those Of any woman- flushed at the memory Of that infection. and of the look in his face which the f1ashlight had be- l traved to me.
