Confirm Bible Story

Further verification of the Bible
story of the entrance of the Children
of Israel into Canaan and the de
struction of Jericho by the soldiers
of Joshua has been obtained from the
scarabs found in the royal tombs of
Jericho. The bulk of the specimens
range from about 2400 B. C. to about
400 B. C.-the time of Amenophis
ILL., The period from Akhenaton to
Rameses ii is blank. Sir Charles
Marston said: THE scarabs confirm
that Jericho was destroyed by Joshua
during the reign of Amenophis Ill.

THE dinner, off to such a bad
Il start, soon was a jolly, friendly
affair. The food was excellent and
not, as Ellen had feared in the be-
ginning, too elaborate.
She had omitted the pate and
firmly had vetoed Molly'S sugges-
ton that the lobster be served in
the shell. They began the meal
with lobster cocktail, cool and de-
licious and served with one of Ell
lens famous sauces.
Then there was the roast duck.
cunningly and accurately seasoned.
The vegetables, green corn with
peppers and peas and broccoli,
were served with cream sauces.
Ellen had managed everything SO
that the dinner seemed a great deal
simpler than it was.
Bert, firmly prevented from dis
cussing baseball, was encouraged to
talk of his really amazing knowl-
edge of literature. Myra and Ellen,
invariable conversationalists, soon
were gaily wrangling with him over
the rightful place of some of his
~favorites.
Where would Sinclair Lewis be
in 100 years? A historian of his
age or completely forgotten? How
about Hemingway?
They argued while Molly, a proud
smile in her eyes, looked at Bar
clay as if to demand whether her

this overwhelming grief. She re-
Tented.
VXTHEN Ellen and Mike, the lat
w ter's face pale and tear
stained, got the bicycle up the
stairs and into the living room, the
girl saw that the news had preced-
ed them.
AS they made their awkward en-
trance she and Myra exchanged an
expressive glance. Myra, too, was
troubled by Barclays munihcence.
But Molly, her small jaw set in
stubborn lines, carefully avoided
ElIen's eyes. That was not surpris-
ing. Ellen had expected no help
from that quarter.
There was an embarrassing 81
lence.
Mike, childishly conscious that
something was wrong, conscious
that he had somehow failed his sis
ter and by no mean certain of his
ultimate victory, deserted Ellen to
rush to his mother.
Molly stroked his hot little head
buried in her lap and bent to whis-
per words of comfort.
Bert, twiddling with the radio
dials, considered the whole affair
unworthy of a mans attention. He
never could understand what he
termed those Rooster" moods OF
Myra and her sister.
The most uncomfortable person
in the room was the real culprit.
Steven had hoped Ellen would
speak, but when she did not, he said
anxiously: Have I been thought
less?"
Ellen, without comment, wheeled
the bicycle into the crowded closet
in the corner and shut the door
with a rather sharp bang.
She did not know what to say.
How could she tell Barclay that it
was one thing to present a toy to
the child of a millionaire and quite
another to present that same toy to
the child whose parents could not
afford to give it to him?
How could she tell him of the
fierce and necessary pride of the
poor?
you've been extremely thought

glance at Myra. Not one mar in
a thousand would know exactly
what a boy Of 10 wanted. Mixes

Mike shyly raised his head.

manded eagerly. ELLEN said SO if

a blessed interruption, an Interrupt

They all laughed and struggled
from the table. Ellen became aware
that the room was stiflingly hot.
Troubles which had been put away
returned to harass her.
What was to happen to them?

an evenings pleasure. The coast OF
Normandy was all very well, but
where was the rent to come from?
When they wandered from the
debris in the dining room to the
stufy living room, she moved to the
window and stared down at the
noisy street.
Children were playing and
screaming there while mothers and
fathers sat YEARLY on the stoops,
tanning themselves with newspapers

tiers.

daughters were not the c~leverest in
the world.
Steven, silent at first and not
quite understanding how the game
was played, entered one or two sug-
gestions only to see them torn to
bits and flung back at him altered
almost beyond recognition.
He learned quickly; warmed to
their youthful vigor. Soon he was
defending his position as valiantly
as they defended theirs.
He caught Myra's and Ellen's at
tention when he mentioned his &C
quaintance with several of the
authors under discussion. They de-
manded more and then more.

TOGETHER they went into the
a living room. Bert was engaged
in a long and technical discussion
Of the comparative merits OF the
Yankees and the Giants.
If Barclay were bored, his courte-
Gus, interested air concealed the
fact. He stood up quickly as Ellen
and Molly appeared.
We'll, dinner is almost ready
at last" Molly announced. Il hope
you're not all starved. Where in

- Portable in the bedroom as she
flung aside her business dress, went
into the bathroom and cautiously
bathed with due consideration for
the fact that splashing water was
audible in the living room.
She returned to the bedroom and
slipped into a clean, fresh, blue
frock. She brushed her curling hair,
powdered her flushed face and
found the string Of amber beads
that went so we'll with her skin.
She looked all right. The sleeve
less dress, cheap as it was, was very
kind to her slender youth.
Ellen, honey" said her mother,
entering, will you fix my snaps,
or are you still mad at me?"
Ellen's heart failed her. What
was the use of anger, of threats, of
reproaches? After a solemn talk,
which took place as Ellen's fingers
busted themselves with the snaps,
Molly promised, as she had prom
ised so often before, that there
would be no more surprises.
But she looked unusually sobered.
BY telling her of the gossip at the
store, Ellen had succeeded in fright
'ening the harum-scarum, little Irish
woman.
They're just Jealous" she de-
clared. IF 1 were you, I'd just tell
that Mrs. Bondy that he was here
for dinner tonight. That'd stop
their mouths. I've half a notion to

interrupted warningly, sis what /

I'd like to give two or three of

~Oh, yes I have. I met him in

Ellen did not know what made
her think that he looked guilty in
a small-boy way, but she did think
that.
Could Mike have said something
to him? Myra had started for the
door, when Ellen suddenly deter
mined to learn what had occurred
in the hall. She spoke hurriedly
and definitely.

She was out the door and running
down the stairs. When she reached
the street she saw that practically
all the youngsters in the neighbour
hood-and they we're many-had
gathered before the apartment door,
almost blocking it.
A few stared with wistful long
ing at the sleek, black limousine
from which the alertly rigid chauf-
feur barred them. But the majority,
screaming and v%ociferous, were
peering up the lamp-lighted street.
Have any of you seen Mike Ros-
siter?" she inquired, wondering just
what new game they were playing.
Sure" half a dozen voices
chorused shrilly. She picked out
from the resultant confusion the in
formation that Mike was giving
Peter Rafferty, a ride on his new
bicycle.
Just then she saw Mike. He was
strutting along proudly beside a
shining wheel, calling out caution
and advice to the tow-headed
youngster who was pedaling.
Ellen knew all at once why Bar
clay had looked so guilty. This
was impossible!

Mike, unconscious of the calamity
about to fall, carefully wheeled his
new possession over the curb and
up on the sidewalk. Ellen never
had seen such glory as was on his
TRANSPORTED face.
"Mr. Barclay gave it to me-" he
explained in a hushed voice, caress-
ing with his grubby hand the shin
ing mud-guards.
But, darling, we can't let you
keep it," Ellen said family.
The blow struck. Mixes face
turned red; his blue eyes looked
surprised, b%ewlidered, confused, hurt
and angry, in rapid succession.
For a moment he gazed at her in
appalled, silence; then burst into
loud and frantic walls. So over
whelming was his grief and rage
that Ellen was afraid it would re-
suit in his usual upset stomach.
She gathered in his shaking body
conscious that the entire juvenile
population was watching.
