familiar things. She did not want
that to happen.
At the hospital the two girls

would permit. Ellen left Myra
there and returned alone to the
apartment. The conversation of
the morning still fingered in her
mind. She blamed herself bitter.

Steven for money or the things
she thought he would do for her
family. Surely she was not so
unfair as to love him less because
she had discovered it would be
impossible for her to give her
sister the Injuries she herself
was to have. Ellen climbed the
stairs feeling discouraged.
CTEVEN was waiting for her in
~ the apartment. When she
saw him everything seemed all
right again. She liked him 80
much that in time she was sure
she would come to love him. When
he kissed her there was nothing
lacking in his kiss because sha
had determined to find nothing
lacking.
She gave him an amusing &C.
count Of the morning and he con-
fessed that for 80 years Mrs.
Stanley had ordered him around
exactly as she had ordered Ellen.
"That was all right Ellen
said. "But what is It you wanted
to tell me?"
Barclay laughed, dug into his
pocket and produced a passport
which he tipped toward her. It
was made out for Mr.. and Mrs.
Steven Barclay.

There was perfect peace be-

delivered to Ellen a stab of pain.

demanded, as she twisted to see II
the skirt of her jersey suit hung

Myra answered. They're letting

Bert won't be drawing a grand

lives to have our own home. You
know that house we've been look

Well, it's still for SALE"
Ellen lost interest in the hang

Of her tongue to suggest that
Steven would help with the house.
She knew he would be glad to.
Something in Myra's face stopped

ERIK sJoeu1sT.

Erik Sjoqulst passed away Saturday
night at the home Of his daughter,
Mrs. Fred Agren, with whom he has
lived for many years past. Death was
the result of old age, Mr.. Sjoquist be-
ing past 90 years of age.
Erik Sjoquist was born in Werm-
land, Sweden, January 28th, 1872.
After he had reached manhood he
came to America, where in 1888 he
was married to Kristina Soderquist
in Grand Rapids, Mich. They return
ed to Sweden soon after their mar
riage to make their home Here their
four children were born.
Mrs. Sjoquist passed away in 1918.
Six months later son, John, died,
A few months later Mr.. Sjoquist re-
turned to America with his daughter,
Mrs. Agren, who was on a visit to
her parents at the time OF her
mothers death. He has made his
home with this daughter continuously
since his return to America, first in
Seattle and during the past Is years
with the Agren family on the Island
the object Of deep love and devotion.
Mr.. Sjoquist was home lover and
good Christian father. His life was
filled with Gods love and in later
years was full of the longing for his
home above.
He leaves to mourn his loss son
Elmer, and two daughters, Mary and
Anna; eight grandchildren and host
of friends and distant relatives, both
in this country and Sweden.
Services from the Agren home or
Wednesday afternoon were conducted
by the Rev Axel Anderson, in the
Swedish language. Assisting him, with
several vocal numbers was David Phil
grin, of Seattle, young man who
came with Mr.. Sjoquist from Sweden
in 1914. Mr.. Philgrin's father had
sung at the funeral services of Mrs
sjoqulist in Sweden, in 1913, and II
was most fitting that the son should
render this last tribute to his ole
friend. Interment was in the Island
cemetery.

GIRLS CLUB TO GIVE
LEAP YEAR DANCE

The Girls Club OF the high school
are planning q leap years dance for
Saturday evening Of this week, Febru-
airy 9th, that gives promise Of being
lots OF fun.
This is where the boys have the OPP
portunity to find how popular they
are or aren't and will know how 1t
feels to decorate the side line, trying
to look sublimely indifferent while the
girls decide whether they care to
choose this, that or the other domin-
ant member OF the stronger sex. II
will be Of great educational value to
those with large bump Of conceit to
discover that mind isn't always more
! potent than matter.
Dancing will begin at nine o'clock
The boys will then have an oppor-
tunity Of choosing whether they will
pay for turning down an invitation Il
dance, or of being stepped on by somt
girl Just learning to dance. II will
be joyous occasion for the girls t.
see situations reversed and themselve
in the position of picking and choos
ing.
