question For just minute. however
'W's- = idenly the pleasure fled
: and she half rose In her
chair and puinted an accusing finger
at the long mahogany case on the low
window seat, its great loud speaker
standing out defiant and bold.
"Who, who, said you could get that
thing?" she began.
WATT" whispered Madge, her
cheeks flaming scarlet. "Please. don't
scold for just a minute"
Dropping on her knee before the In
.strument, she clapped on the head
phones and swung the dials into place.
All the time she was conscious OF ner
aunt's look of grim disapproval boring
Into her back. For moment or two
there was silence In the room as the
girl waited for the announcer to finish
speaking. Then with triumphant lit.
tie laugh she rose to her feet and
switched on the loud speaker.
Organ music-the wrath suddenly
died out of Aunt Jerry's eyes. "Why.
IL didn't know. It's like church
choir, isn't It'll"
Madge nodded. "It is choir" she
whispered. Listen"
ALI interest now. Aunt Jerry leaned
back in her chair and closed her eyes.
Maybe she had been a bit hasty In
condemning. Anyway, it was pleas
ant diversion for the time.
Organ music again, soft. rolling
music. why. it's the prelude to the
song Gordon was TO sing. | know 1t,
oh. so well. Maybe he is singing II
now in the big city church so far
away" she began.
Then of sudden Aunt Jerry's eyes
came open with snap. Its GOrdon's
voice." she shrilled "Oh. know it is.
But how can it be?"
Madge dropped TO the low stool at
her aunt's feet. ut is Gordon's voice."
she said HE is singing it all for
you, for | telegraphed him we would
be listening in" Then as the last
notes faded away Madge looked up
into the older womans face with a
contrite expression. "Aunt Jerry, will
you forgive me? know you hate these
new things made the set all myself
in my spare moments at college. And
-and"-a little more slowly as she
doubted the reception of her words
II had to put on my Knockers and
climb tree to untangle the aerial"
For answer Aunt Jerry leaned down
and planted a kiss on the Iousled boy
ish bob. II don't quite understand It
all just yet" she said. but we'll have
lots of time while am getting we'll
to go into it together" Then. there's

Telling the World

Jean was Henry's small niece and
this was her first visit. On Sunday
the service at church had kept her
enthralled.
do people who want to get mar
ried have to ask the minister to tell
everyOne?" she asked when they came
out. 81 should think Mr.. Thomson
must be awfully glad Miss Day is go
ing to marry him at last, don't you,
Uncle Henry? He must be so tired of
asking her."
Henry gave an audible gasp.
81 suppose he must, Jean. But who

Large-Fisted Boxer Is
Given Big Advantage

In the matter of mitts, Berlin box
ing experts have struck a snag.
At the last bout between the Ger
man heavyweight Ernst Roesemann.
and the Italian giant, Primo Camera.
for whom gloves OF a special size had
to be made, it became apparent that
the big Italians opponent was greatly
handicapped.
For the larger gloves of Camera,
weighing FIVE ounces, according to the
regulations, naturally had less pad
ding than those of the other man.
whereby the Italians blows were made
more telling than those of the smaller
man with his fists encased in thicker
padding.

Olive Need. Special Soil

The region in which the olive may
be successfully grown for the com.
mercial production of fruit In the
United States is not as great as for
most frost-hardy fruits. and has been
confined to portions of California and
Arizona, although the trees will live
and bear some fruit in portions of all
the southern tier of states Of this
country.

her right foot In front of his during

that she stands so close to him that
nothing can squeeze between-nOt

Silver Fox Distinct Breed

There are distinct breeds Of black
and silver foxes. Silver foxes are q
freak of nature. but the breeding Of
them has been carried to such a point
that they are now an established
breed. Silver foxes are worth much
more than black foxes owing to the
fact that red foxes can be dyed black
whereas there is no way of camouflag-
ing silver foxes. The raising of silver
foxes has been carried on for close
to forty years.
