He answered vaguely, adding.

that she was going straight

His citation was strangely e1-

and then "gocdby."
Elinor might have stopped TO

reasoned; yet suspicious that had

aroused.

A French clock that stood on the
mantel struck four. From the
hall came the quarter hour-a
full day later 1t seemed! She was
usually in by four.
He rose and stood by the win
dow. The lcnstEcning chime that
told half past four came from
the hall.
He crushed the last OF his many
cigarets and dropped 1t on Sill
vc- tray. Higgins appeared to
ask whether Mrs. Colvin would be
home for tea.
Barrett began a muttered al

Barrett moved back from the
window. So this was the explains
ton Of her delay! This was the
reason Bessie had thought Elipor
was going straight home!
She came in quickly, her step
eager. She was late and she had
particularly looked forward to tho
quiet tea hour with Barrett who
had kissed her that morning BE-
cause he wanted to!
She had gone from Bessie's To
see Philip. who was Ill. She
wanted to tell Barrett about
Philip. She had not as yet.
Elinor dreaded his censuring
Philip for taking as much from
her as he had and she had not
been able TO nerve herself to COM

trough any confidence. the
growing peace and happiness OK
their hours together. The face

lied. kissed you because i
wanted to"
CHE said nothing but her smile
~ was a little tremulous, her
eyes misty. He kissed her hands
suddenly as he had never kissed
her lips, then turned hurriedly
toward the door.
She stood where he had left
her, hands above her heart, eyes
closed. For weeks she had known
something of his growing feeling
for her. She had heard it in his
voice which softened as he spoke
to her. She had seen it in the
hungry eyes that followed her.
1t had been charted, too, in his
concern for her entertainment. In
the flowers and books and music
that had come to her from him.
Almost daily there had been some
offering.
"Oh-make it come true!" she
prayed. II can't live without
him."
Mrs. Radnor is waiting" Hig-
gins reminded humbly.
"Oh. yes!" she laughed un-
steadily. She had forgotten.
"Ycs. Marcia?" she said breath
lessly a moment later. Barrett
had kissed her because he wanted
to! Kissed her because he wanted
to. I'm sorry, Marcia. I didn't
catch that. Oh. ycs-for the
baby's bath. I'll come right down.
No. nothing's wrong. The connec-
ton is a little bad"
The result o. Barretts working
day could have given, to even a
less ambitious workman. no rea-
son for pride. He dallied over
this and that: looked at steatite
plaque TO lay it down without sec
ing the hierogIyphics which he
was supposed to consider: picked
I'D a seal Of freedom TO lay that
down, too. Hc had run his hands
through his hair and then pre-
tended to examine 4 cuneiform
inscription.
At two o'clock Barrett rose.
"a I'm going to luncheon,
Blinker," he said, "and I'm not
coming back today. Have Miss
Pringlc's American Indian dona-
ton ready for me. I'll look 1t
over in the morning"
I'm afraid" said Blinker hum
bly,, that you'll find it's a fake
Pm afraid so too" said Bar
rctt. Rather an awkward affair.
He didn't like to hurt an old lady
who wanted to do something
worth while" for university
museum. Perhaps 1t would hurt
the university too. She might be
the sort who would do nothing at
all for the school il they told her
that her collection was worthless.
And yet it was impossible to TAM
per with the truth, Barrett knew.
Once out OF the building. he
moved swiftly. He was going
home to the girl whose face now
haunted him everywhere. Home
to ask whether he had a chance
to be her husband for all time.
Home to say. II want to WOO you
and win you-if can! You
don't know how I'll try: how
much you mean TO me. You
never will know, | suppose. but
III try TO prove it with the
years" How could he endure
it If she should say definitely that
he had no chance and never could
have a chance? His heart chilled.
But q. vision Of her face that
morning, lifted to him. returned
to cheer him. His heart had been
beating unevenly all day with the
memory of that look and what 1t
seemed to mean.

MR.. GARNER-AND OTHERS

The Greensboro Daily News is apprehenslve that
President Roosevelt is likely to find himself soon
or or later. embarrassed by the latitude which has
been permitted to his Private Secretary Howe anu
his Chief of the Brain Trust Moley to engage III
public speaking and public writing for pay
And we must say we rather share that view Inc
compensation which the gentlemen are getting Tor
their articles and radio addresses-and that COM
pensation is reputed to into fancy hgures-lS
based almost entirely upon the fact that they are
kew men in the administration, and the impression
which the public naturally forms that they are in
some manner kind of mouth-piece of the admin
istration.
There is some ground to feel that delicate
sense of the ethics of public service of this charac
tor might REQUIRE that the offices held by these
gentlemen should preclude any commerclalzatlon
of their positions. But in addition to that, there
is always the chance that they may say something
which NAV be taken as representation of M
Roosevelt's own views and lead to msapprehensiou
and embarrassment
And in that connection the country, we dare say
will be moved to give enthusiastic hand to Wee
President John n Garner, who has fatty turned
down an offer to make a weekly broadcast for
wear at 81 900 per talk. Mr. Garner has thus passed
IN S52 900 not only because he does not wish 10

sideration of others who conspicuous In federal

their country home in Woodstock,

to HendcrSonville for their annual
visit to his old home.
To those who know him, the two
most outstanding qualities in Mr..

love for the church, and his close
affection for his old home and the

him returning to the old farm
where he spent his carly life, and
here with his brothers, his sisters,
and the children Of the family, he
spends many weeks during each

1t was in this same Old farm
house, long years ago, that Bishop
Lyman confirmed his father and

laid to rest in the family grave
