THE SEQUEL TO SONIA

her eyes to breathe a passionate
prayer of gratitude for Don's years
of training, For the thousands OF
dollars spent on his education, which
once she had begrudged him. For
her own lonely hours, while he was
away. For anything which had
contributed even slightly to his
knowledge and skill. For he saved
her mothers life!
The others said it was a miracle
but Sonia knew it was Dom.
Her eyes were circled with weari
ness, swollen with tears. But for
once in her life she had no thought
of her appearance. She found him
in the kitchen, drinking his seventh
cup of strong black coffee.
oh" she cried, you're wonder
full. :"
She had forgotten their trouble in
the joy of her mothers recovery
She was surprised when he drew
her, hungrily, into his arms.
Sonia, can you ever forgive me?''
Unable to answer she flung her
arms tightly about his neck.

IT couldn't understand, Don. II

you to-"
II couldn't explain, honey. I had
the idea that you might lie to me.
And if you did 1 was afraid l might
do something I'd regret"
Sonia wondered if this could really
be the self-controlIed DR.. Saltwater.
He lifted her white face ana looked
deeply into her eyes.
II hope you'll believe me when j
say 1 did not suspect you Of any
thing more serious than flirting. But
in the face of love like ours even
flirting was too much. 1 could not
love you, the way 1 must love you.
when I thought, you were playing
ever so lightly with another man."
He paused and added, huskily,
From the bottom of my heart /
ask your pardon"
Her lips quivered. but she snuggled
closer beneath his chin.
"Draling, l though I'd die with
out you"
F. Vera entered the kitchen.

When he come she asked to speak
to him, privately. But in only a mo

back into her mothers room. There
were tears in Annals dark eyes.

everything is all right"

CHAPTER XXXIII


Hours before she reached The
shabby little house. Before she knel
by Annals bed to cry, ooh, darling
why didn't you tell us sooner"
Anna was suffering intense pain.
Where's DOM" she whispered.
Hell be here, mother. He was
out of the city, but I left word fol
him."
If only he would come quickly
Ridiculous to pin her confidence tc
him when Stockton doctors admitted
there was so little hope. But Sonia
did.
Vera, pale with worry and lacli
of sleep, led her into the kitchen
insisting that she have a cup of tea
You're all in, aren't you," Sonia
asked, sympathetically
II am" Vera confessed, But you
aren't looking any too well"
Sonia flushed.
Tell me about mother. When did
she first take sick?"
Sonia Marsh" asked Vera, sud
denly, Are you keeping something
from me?"
Don't be silly, Vera. I suppose
do look like a wreck"
'You can't fool me, little sister.
I've been through it too often"
S eyes flashed
"Well, just because you're always
dofig it you needn't suspect every
other woman"
Vera poured the tea with an un'
steady hand.
"Sit down, honey! Want some jelly
with your bread and butter? You
asked about mother. She's been feel
ing badly for weeks, but you know
how she is. I don't think she was
very careful about that diet Don
gave her"
Sonia's eyes filled with tears. Vera
was humoring her as she would a
sick child. But she swallowed the
bread and butter gratefully.
She returned to sit by Annals bed
To hold her hand, counting the
minutes, which bragg like hours
Praying that Don would come. . o..
Towards evening Anna became un
conscious. To Sonia, then, life's val
ues shifted. Realities stood out in
naked dignity while less important
things were shredded like paper dolls
in a fierce wind. Love, sacrifice
courage, duty! Protection of little
children. The maintenance, at what
ever cost, of cheerful homes. These
were essentials.
She looked at Vera, kneeling, be
side the bed, her hand clasped in hel
husbands. Sonia had never liked

with longing. She wanted her hus

Would she be forced to face the los:
of her mother alone?
At that moment she heard his
quick tread. Some one opened the
door, crying, ooh, it's DON"
Her eyes met his eagerly, but she
felt only a professional compassion
in his response. He patted her colo
hand.
II came as soon as 1 could. How
is your mother?"
"Awfully bad, Don. The doctors
say there is-no hope"
He set his lips grimly and went

Their natural tendency is to destroy initiation seIf-reance and individual We the community atmosphere. The local coloring and individuality. We liberty of thought. freedom of actton''
 The fair and honest Press of the Territory will just naturally fight for any that will tend to bring about Home Rule. And on the contrary Subsidized Press will air Big Interests and self-inter ested discredited politicians in fighting against ao@orn- ment by the people. Representative James A Frear sounds this warning: 'Practieally every believer in the spols system. in the divine right politics and power, in dscreded manipulation methods which recognize bosses and leaders rather than principes-all these elements favor taking the powers away from the people,

 Senator King is strong advocate of local self-government, in opposition to paternastic and selfish rule.

 But the people of Alaska do really to progress and there is great hope that the Territory may again begin decided return Home Rule through the action of free and independent mem bershp that is assumed to constitute the 1927 Leg islature Of there will be battle royal the issue and President Coolidge sounds a warning that it would be well to heed when he said Artificial propaganda, paid agitaors, selfish inter ests, all impinge upon members of legislative bodies to force them represent special elements rather than the great bodies of their constituency
 Former Secretary of State Hughes says: We do not elect men to choose the members of our Leg islature for us We elect such officials direct" And why should not the people of Alaska exercise the privileges and powers that Congress them and elect at the ballot box their Comptroller Treas urer, Attorney General, Commissioner of Education and Mine Inspector? And why should not of these officials after being elected by the people constitute Territorial Boards. instead impos- iny duties Federal officials who are only respon- sible to Washington?
