make me like it any less. To tell me
that it will not work under big business
makes me like 1t more. simply think

literature was rather concerned with
death. I wonder whether death also is
doomed.

I had been reading, on the

family. Mr.. Bronte was a
self-centered country parson,
who wore out his wife by
making her the mother of
six children in six years.
Left with the motherless
brood on his hands, he cast

Of his wife's maiden sister.
She, poor thing, was living
peacefully in a lovely little
town, with an income suffi-
cient to provide comfortably
for her simple wants. There
was every selfish reason why
she should stay just where
she was.
Yet, at his summons, she
did not hesitate. She cast
aside every personal consider
alton, came down to the bleak
parsonage in it's ugly part of
England and proceeded, for
the rest OF her life. to devote
herself to those children.
