VOLUNTARY CHAPEL AT
YALE WORKS OUT WELL
First Year Under More Elastic Rul-
ing Proves Satisfactory to
Officials.

New Haven. June P-The first
year OF voluntary chapel at Yale
University showed good attendance
and made good beginning for the
coming year. in the opinion of Rev.
Henry Tweedy 81 of the Divinity
school faculty.
THE numbers were good, the
| record is encouraging, and friends of
the chapel are looking forward with
we'll grounded optimism to the re-
suits which will be obtained when
Mr.. Mckee opens his office in the
fall.
The attendance has been far bet
ter than many feared. Not that
this was all that many might have
hoped for. even granting that this
was traditional year and that the
full time college pastor had not yet
begun his work on the campus.
There is a wide spread feeling that
the services have been truly devo-
tional and helpful and that at least
a few good things have been accom-
plished."
Attendance dropped off after
Easter according to Rev. Mr..
Tweedy's figures. The lowest figure
recorded was S. and the highest 200,
on Memorial Day. The average
! daily attendance since Easter he
estimates at 100 and for the entire
year 125. About 500 different stu
dents attend chapel at least once in
the average week, he concludes. The
average student attendance at Sun
day chapel he estimates at 400.

CHAPTER 2
It was another Saturday, late
in the spring. when Emily again

had brushed her off the road and
brought about the tragedy Of

She was walking down the long

of magnolia blossoms. The car

who owned villas out River Road,

It. For when there was work to
be done rooms to be made over. it
was she they called in. And she
did everything herself.
She had established a home down
toward Great View on the very bank
OF the river; an old-fashioned Dutch
colonial house under hemlock and
white pine. And she filled 1t up
with artists and writer's, scientists.

''See, that's how things are be.

gaze seemed to say, more plainly
than any words could have said
them.
Sick with anger and shame,
Sally stood looking at him.
There was nothing she could do
or say She couldn't cry out
to John Nye, and tell him that
she didn't care a snap of her
fingers for Ted sloan, and that
she hated him to kiss her-that
he never had kissed her with

Again came that foolish impulse
OF Sally's to cry. She struggled
with 1t, sut she could feel the
warm tears in she back Of her
throat and in her eyes.
''Hey, you, Sal1yg' called q loud
voice in the outer room. and she
gave a start.
It was TED Sloan's voice, and
suddenly she remembered that he
had been threatening all week to
come out for Sunday night sup
per.
In an instant he was at the
door. and she was herself again,
holding out her hand In welcom-
ing and smiling her swift, bright
smile.
Hello. TedY' she cried warmly.
But Ted did not answer her or
touch the hand she held out to
him.
A look Of jealousy and distrust
flashed into his eyes as he looked
from her to John Nye. together
