only interest in you is your desire to
turn in order not to be burned.
If you walk away from Heaven you
must walk towards He'll, if you stop
climbing up you must start falling
down. The presence of God is either
to bless or to curse, bless you when
you turn to Righteousness, curse you
when you are willing to be burned
for unrightiousness.
So, turn or burn, thou prodigal son,
thou hayward daughter, thou careless

destruction, for, as sure as life is in
your body if you don't turn to right
BUSINESS you shall be burned for un-

God of salvation rather than be burned
by eternal damnation; as there is no

4 RARE spring morning, the
n hlac-scented air a-blow with
drifting fruit blossoms. Linda Flem-
ing, standing in the doorway of her
home, thoughtfully watching the
postman trudging up the street, was
conscious of more than usual feel
ing of unrest. Nature was calling
her to come out and admire its
beautiful new garments. But the
numberless small duties that fill an
uneventful life with a mockery of
importance, made her turn from the
enticement of the awakening gar
den.
Linda was the last member of
her family left in the old home
stead. A limited income compelled
her into a monotonous daily routine,
against which she rebelled.
She had always lived in a small
town grit by high wall of noun
tain, which she longed to be able to
push aside. Beyond it, she was
sure, was the fairyland of her
dreams. She wanted a realization
of life, not as it was, but as she
imagined it. 2
Her dissatisfaction and hunger
for something different, something
that life in a narrow environment
could never offer, made her close
her heart against Roger Chapman,
whose dearest wish was to make
Linda his wife. When DR.. Flem-
ing died, young Dr. Chapman had
taken his practice. He was Linda's
sincere friend and confdant. But
husband? All, never! The ideal who
lived in her thoughts was clothed in
vestments that did not fit faithful,

TO-ANN was on her way to The
- Nook. She was walking so fast
that she was almost running, and
as she went she talked to herself, a
mere mutter at first; later, when
she left the road and was crossing
the pasture which contained The
Nook, and therefore could not be
overheard, she talked in her nat
ural tones.

She was taking the last steep
scramble as she said these words.
Just over the top of the hill was
the big pine, with two big rocks,
forming the snug little Nook and
commanding a wide view of coun-
try. This was the private refuge
which Jo-Ann had made particularly
her own.
Absorbed in her grievance, she
made tumultuous descent between
the rocks and almost into the lap
of young man who was sitting
little to one side of her own favorite
place!
"Amen!" said the young man,
fervently.
Jo-Ann sank upon the pine-needles
and gasped at him.
"Amen?" she echoed weakly.

"Me for Miss Ellen!" And George
sighed for sheer delight.
Then, "You don't suppose the
original Ellen will think we had a
cool nerve to name the little boat
after her, do your" asked Phil.
The two young men lay stretched
on the dock beside which fioated the
trim creation of their brains and
mechanical ability, the 16-foot Miss
Ellen, equipped with an eight-cylin-

her for tearing about the sound in

and run up to the mountains for a

1t was not unnatural for the boys
to boast a little about their craft,
and Ellen, brought up among ma
tional and international champions,
listened Wide-eyed. The youthful
braggers dwelt upon the engine
rather than upon the length, beam
or displacement of the boat, and FL

handed her letter After reading
it she hurried to the phone and
called excitedly: "Oh, Roger, come
quick! A relative of fathers has left
me legacy"
The legacy proved important
enough to open the door to Linda's
world of dreams. Roger, with his
usual unselfshness, helped her pore
over tourist circulars and time ia
bles.
She decided on year or two of
travel, after which she would settle
in the city, where Roger must come
often to see her. In the meantime
he would put the Fleming home on
the auction market, while Linda her
self would look up a reliable dealer
in the city who would dispose of the
valuable old furniture that had been
in the Fleming family for genera
tons.
In an incredibly short time Linda
found herself esconced in a city
hotel. Rogers last words-"Send
for me if you ever need me-" still
sounding in her ears.
The days that followed were
charged with an excitement that
was not altogether pleasurable. Lin
da was obliged to admit this, as she
lay in her prim hotel bedroom one
Sunday morning, and reviewed the
events of the last few weeks. She
was astonished to find that her
thoughts persisted in turning home
ward, and that her most dominant
feelings had been those of beWilder-
ment and loneliness. In her pocket
book were the passport and tickets
that would enable her to start the
following day on a wonderful trip
around the world.
The day before she had been to
see a dealer in antiques about the
sale of her furniture. She had in
wardly resented the eagerness with
which he gloated over her submitted
list She had felt a passion of pro-
tectiveness for the dear old pieces
that, until then, she had never val
ued. There was the lowboy that,
since her earliest recollections, had
stood by her mothers bedside. It
had held her Bible and night lamp.
There was the little rocker by the
fireplace, in which as a child she
had cuddled in her mothers arms
and found comfort for her childish
griefs. There we're the spacious
beds, with their futed and pineapple
posts, that had been the last resting
place of loved and respected mem
bers of her family. Each STEPPED in
sentiment, they rose before her vi
sion in mute protest against her in
tended sacrilege. .
The old home itself, dignified,
fanked on each side by tall red
chimneys, the tagged walk leading
to it's threshold, worn by the be-
loved footsteps of those who had
gone to their eternal home, was a
sanctuary of sacred memories.
And for a whim she was going 10
subject it to the auctioneer's ham,
mer! Linda's pillow was wet with
her remorseful tears, while waves
of homesick longing swept her
thoughts back to her old home and
its associations. What could the out.
side world offer in comparison?
Where on the wide earth could
she find anyone who could take the
place in her affections that Roger
had? She stretched out her hand to
the telephone, on the stand by her
bedside, and sent tingling over the
wires the message that flew like a
homing bird straight to the heart

of course. But the races are tomor-

swung on to the straightaway!
Gosh!'
ON THE following afternoon the
~ veranda of the Deep Harbor
club presented its usual colorful as
pect as the mothers, sweethearts
and wives foregathered to watch
the annual contest which was usu-
ally replete with thrills.
AS for Philip and George, qualms
had seized them. Not any fear that
the Miss Ellen would fail to do all
they claimed. No, indeed. But as
they looked around and saw their
competitors, it was borne in upon
them that their craft did not be-
long. 1t was like racing a flivver
runabout G in t thoroughbred
horses.
Now a handicap race of this type
is theoretically interesting because,
if the computation has been exact,
the boats will all finish together.
Therefore, as the end approached,
and the boats entered upon the fifth
and final lap, the spectators were on
tiptoe for the exciting finish.
Suddenly, the invariable thrill ar
rived. The Miss Ellen spun sudden
ly off the course at a tangent,
slowed down and stopped, while the
youthful engineer and mechanician
could be seen bent over the engine.
Then they were forgotten as, midst
clapping and cries, the Whippoor-
will III shot over the line with six
other craft behind.
That night, Philip and George
stole a moment from the club dance
to talk it over again.
"Quixotic, of course" al d
George. But when you think we
were only admitted on fuke, well
and as long as no one knows our
breakdown was a fake"

Philip. Then he looked thoughtful.
