John answered our ring at the Elkins house
and took us into the drawing room Lights
giowed in two three lamps and coal fire

at us sharply as we sank down upon a lounge
and almost simultaneously uttered a sigh of
exhaustion. Mrs. Millard," he began appre-
hensively, then hesitated. "Is there anything

Katharine wearily returned his anxious gaze

wrong. Is the family up yet? OF course, I
realize that it is very early"
Mr.. Elkins always rises at T." John replied,
"and is now dressing. MIR. Peter is in his bath

shortly. He arrived from Philadelphia a
very late train last night, but asked to be called

THAT is just as we'll" Katharine replied.

thought she was going to faint.
John sprang to her side and placed pillow

Katharine rested her head against the pill

The old servant left the room and for five

there in silence. Then the door opened. 1t was

We were robbed last night" she announced
in voce that was husky with emotion.

I got in from Philadelphia that you and Mrs
Kelly were spending the night in your house
and I thought then that I wished-that

Yes" remarked Peter, drawing a chair up to
the lounge and seating himself squarely before
Katharine. yes told George the minute he

She shuddered and covered her eyes with
her hands as If to shut out that hideous
memory. George, his blue eyes tender with love
and sympathy, drew her hands from her face
and held them tightly in his own. Poor little
girl" he said softly. "Ah, dearest, don't
rembe so! It's all over now, Katharine, darl-
ing, be calm. You are in my house now, dear
and safe from all harm"
What happened then, Mrs. Kely?" Peter
asked turning to me. I could have sworn
that his hands were clenched In his pockets
as he looked at the two on the lounge.

him, trying not to betray the emotion that T.

Off the light and came to bed. You see the
door into the hall was unlocked and it was
inevitable that the thief should get into the

What time was this, Katharine?" Peter in
quired with certain definite grim determina-

"It must have been an hour sitter you left

About O'clock" Peter repeated in that same
peculiar tone he had employed few seconds

George was unaware of it. why, yes" he
answered "yes, did get iii quarter past /,

THE robbery occurred about oclock?" Peter
continued. Just As minutes after you got in:

Katharine and Mrs Kelly had gone to sleep"
I glanced at Katharine uneasily, but her dark,
unfiinchng gaze was upon Peter. Just what

cool, even tones.
Peter rose from his chair and pointed finger
at his brother. Il am inferring" he Missed,

drained of every vestige of color. My God,

Fascinated, we witnessed this startling pro-

the lounge, one hand to his heart, his mouth

The parents would rather have them wait until
they are older, and in the meantime let them
find other means of qualification.
Parents naturally believe that boys and girls
IN their teens can't be mature enough to choose
their mates. But here, again, aren't they as
suming too much? They let these kids do very
much as they please. They can have their own
cars and spending money. They can read what
ever books they want and see sophisticated
shows. They can drink and go off TO road
houses. But when 1t comes to picking mate,
they suddenly become babies. If they are ma
ture enough to have liberties of all sorts, then
they are mature enough to marry. And It's q
good thing for them to do so.
IF the parents think that the attachment
is an infatuation, they can urge the boy and
girl to wait 1t will blow over soon enough But
If they stick, let them marry. The parents may
not believe that they are making wise choice,
but can't see that older people choose with
any more judgment The bright idea today is
to marry for love, but no one is educated to
know what love is. That is the reason so many
people end up in the divorce courts whether
they marry early or later.
"As a matter of fact, think the youthful
marriage has a better chance to last. The
boy and girl are more devoted to each other
and more likely to stick through adversities.
They respond more readily to changes. The
trouble is in handling youth today, we not only
don't give them credit for how little they know
but for how much they feel They are so
lonely and so pathetically eager for affection
that when they find some one they love they
are twice as loyal the more mature person
would be under the same circumstances.
\k/HEN asked about any possible changes in
w social standards and customs, Miss Per-
kins stated that she could not see any indica-
tions Of 1t today.
THE fact is,' she observed, chat we need
some real red-blooded men to handle the sit
uation. But where are they? Men today seem
to be of weak caliber Women are walking
on their toes, and they don't do thing about
1t. They just sit back and let the flood Of
feminism rise over their heads. They don't
assert themselves in the home; they don't insist
on their right to have hand in the training
OF their sons. woman can't bring up boy.
She makes nincompoop of him. She keeps
him tied to her apron strings so long and
Goodies him so much that he can't do any vital
work In the world. He isn't virile enough to

He lets her manage him. And let me saw that
although the woman may at first enjoy manag.
ing her husband, she soon begins to feel that
he is inadequate and loses respect for him,
She either treats him as she would little

The truth is that woman Is not CAPABLE Of

mead And the family itself was kept more
