or serfdom. Free citizens consti- tuted 6 very small group in ancient society. In the Greek and Roman world slaves were frequently men of marked ability and training. The slave might serve his master as a skillful physician, or in some other equally high and trusted capacity. Though the slave lacked the free dom that would give him power over the disposal of his own life, he was often accorded the privi- leges that made him 8 man of learning. r.t
 It was not unnatural, therefore, that the new religion should find among it's disciples slaves as well as masters. The problems of the new religion of brotherly love were acute in q situation where both the slave and the master became Chris tian disciples. Under these circum- stances we find Paul dealing with this practical situation in a prac- tical way.
 The spirit of Christ's teaching is inherently thoroughly opposed to the institution of slavery. But 1t would have been hopeless in that day to have made any direct attack upon the institution of slavery. It was deeply entrenched in the whole mechanism of life and government. Under these circumstances Paul taught that both master and slave were subject to the law of Christ. If A man was called to the Chris tian life being q slave, let him prove himself faithful and honor able in his environment. If man was called being master, let him exercise his mAstership with graci- ousness and love, esteeming his slave as a Christian brother.
 It was one of the difficult situa- tions arising out of this condition that Paul dealt with in this epistle. Onesimus. whose name means profitable" was a slave belonging to Philemon, to whom the epistle was written, a Christian of Co1osse. Oneslmus had robbed his master and fled to Rome. Here he became a convert to Christianity through Paul's preaching, and the sincerity of his new experience was imme- diately tested when Paul urged him that 1t was his duty to go back to Philemon. In sending him back Paul gave him a letter to Philemon in which he reminds the latter that he himself was slave or prisoner of Jesus Christ. and that as such he is pleading the case of Onesimus w..o Is his son in the faith. He reminds Philemon that he would have been glad to keep Onesimus with him, that he might have the benefit of Onesimus' serv- Ice and done any wrong, or Is In Philemon's indebtedness, to as sume responsibility.
 What did Philemon do? The rec ord does not appear. Did he, as we might expect. send Onesimus back to Paul? The letter Is one of tender and beautiful feeling combined with courteous and per- suasive expression. It suggests the contract between goals and real ities, and Is instructive for its help fulness as a practical philosophy for the Christian.

At pr Raynor's question, What have you done to yourself?" Ruth Bradley flushed a little deeper. Nothing" she lied. Nothing at all. How do you know how l look? You've never looked at me before."
 Courage born of a flaming red lipstick was making her say things that she couldn't have said 10 min utes before.
 II have. I used to spend all of my time watching you in the hos pital. And 1t hasn't been more than Q year since I wound up my interne work and came home and met Sally. You finished your stuff little later"
 Ruth was wishing that he would go. He had been kind enough in the old days. They had laughed together. Worked together. Played together. There was a rainy night when they had found a queer little fish shanty about ready to tumble itno the bay, and another-but 1t only hurt to think about 1t. They had never been anything but good friends. He had not thought of her romantically at all. Just as godo scout. He had told her so. And then he had met Sally
 And Sally wasn't cut out to be a good scout. She was the kind of girl who belonged in a silkcn room with men bringing her gifts. Not on a prairie schooner doing her half.
 Ruth thought that she hated Dr Raynor because he had been trapped by Sally. But she knew, just as we'll. that if she didn't hate him she would love him. Suddenly she wanted to do something to wound him. She didn't care what. Anything.
 She didn't know why she felt this way nuless 1t was the memory of Sue Thornton, starry-eyed and happy. with everything she wanted in her grasp, who had come singing up the steps of her home. A
 It wasn't fair. Ruth was think ing. that she should have this queer. smothered sensation and Sue should be so happy.
 After all, Dr Raynor needn't act as though she had no more kick than glass of warm water before breakfast.
 Anyway. Ruth. my dear effl- cient one, you've got a remarkable pair of iips!"
 "Oh stop talking about my lips" she famed hack. "And don't call me efficient again."
 "Sut yoa are, you know" His voice was puzzled.

The Good Taste girls answered roll call at their November meet ing by acting out some incorrect table manner they had seen prac- ticed during the nast week. First came Alice, who took a tea cup and held 1t to her mouth crookinG her little finger in what used to be considered elegant" fashion, but which is now in the worst of taste. It looks so affected.
 Dorothy came next. She passed a plate to a pretended host and re- moved her knife and fork, brand- ishing them aloft while she waited for her plate to be refilled and re- turned. She should have put the silver on the plate she passed to her host.
 Grace spread an imaginary slice of bread by laying 1t down on the >able and applying butter carefully across its whole surface. She showed the correct fashion a mo- ment later when she broke off a bit of bread, buttered that and then put her bread and butter knife back on the plate. Frances held her fork as if 1t were @ pick. Instead of duplicat- ing the position in which she held her knife she stuck her fox straight upright

I have just seen the new me-
 morial in Potomac Park, Wash
 ington, to the soldiers who went to
 war from the District of Colum-
 bia.
 Washington is full of memorials
 the Washington monument, the
 Lincoln temple, the breeding fig
 ure of fate, a tribute to the Adams
 family in Rock Creek cemetery. There is the grave of the Un-
 known Soldier at Arlington ceme-
 tery, the most inspiring and sacred of all to me, with its solitary guardsmen walking past. All over the city are circles and squares with huge monuments to
 soldiers who fought in the Civil
 war. Every city has monuments. They are sacred to the memories of those who gave up their lives bravely and willingly to Q country that needed them.
 Women Win Less Tribute Wherever l go, whatever city l enter holds up to me the men of the ages. It is world custom.
 And yet--something strikes mo as unfair. Where are the women
 of our land who have made his
 tory? Yes, there are a few trib-
 utes in stone. marble and bronze
 to their memory, but oh, so few. At the moment, however, I am
 not thinking of the monument to
 the brave pioneer women who were finally commemorated q cou-
 rle of years ago by one of the worlds most beautiful statues, or
 of the war mothers who gave their sons so nobly and who have had a belated gift from the nation, but of all the mothers of America. The patience, hard-work, en- durance. and physical and mental suffering that the mother of fam fly goes through in twenty years time might be comparable-and
 often favorably-to the average
 soldiers experience. By cumula- tion it. certainly amounts to a con
 siderable sum.
 Women Most Courageous!
 If you ask me who is the brav-
 est, men or women, I should say
 women. They must and do face things that would stagger man. Physical bravery is not the only
 kind. There are other things that
 wear out and kill as cruelty and with as much heartbreak and suf- fcring as war. AS for physical
 courage am not so sure either
 that facing childbirth is not the hardest battle of all. The monotony of homework, the complete withdrawal of self.
 the acceptance of responsibility in
 all its phases is surely worthy of | memorial.
 Why not build one to the moth
 CTS of America? One grand tribute to motherhood The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world
 and this is as true to-day as it ever was,

 Paul's letter to Philemon Is one of the prison epistles. It was writ ten during his imprisonment at Rome. It is notable as the short est of Paul's epistles. This single chaptered epistle. however, is nota- ble for the way in which Paul deals with a problem of personal character and the institution of slavery.
 Paul has taught that the grace of God through the Gospel was available for slave and master alike. Very quickly, apparently, the triumphs of the Gospel were manifest in both free men and slaves.
 It should, perhaps, be remem- bered that until comparatively modern times the great mass of mankind have been under slavery

Steyne had been drawn into a heated argu. ment at the big table opposite where the eager faces of the dis putants were all but plotted out bl clouds of smoke.

My dear girl, you can't account for these things. When you come to think of 1t, why didn't you know Alan when he first came back?" The moment he had spoken, Du- mont realized his mistake. Ciarissa stared at him with large. uncom- pretending eyes.
