Startled, it was the doe, not we who

Against the spruces and the winter

We saw the shape of sudden siIve,

We heard the startled music, lightly

turned
And saw that mighty shape against
the crag,
And proud above the forehead Of
the stag,
The bright and royal antlers as they
burned.
He slipped across the bronze of AFT

Into the quiet dusk; we saw him go
Into that burning Wilderness Of

And his great eyes seemed lighted

Answer: II is correct merely be-
cause 1t is a custom that has been
long established. Two reasons
why are, first, that hat always
completes woman's street cos

depend upon the hat for its fin
ished smartness. The second rea-
son is that a hat is more becom-
ing than bare head to most wo-
men-especially to those who are
not very young. This is the rea-
son why the majority of hostesses
on the far side of 40 wear hats
in their own houses when they are
giving a lunch party of any size.
on the other hand. very Young
hostesses in the lower twenties

her and her husband l left their
home, without letting her know
how felt.
Now, after an absence of three
years. l find upon returning that
my love for her is not dead. but is
stronger than ever and / know now
that she, too, loves me deeply. Our
love for one another has been pure
and clean.
We have thought OF going to
Mr.. X and asking him to give her
\ divorce, but we feel that he
wouldn't consent and fear that he
would make a scandal. We wonder
II our friends and parents would

the Firms need rifles and machine
guns and bullets in a kind of open

times. There cannot be too much
ammunition to pour into the ad-

on skis who are unframed in mill
tary forms may get the attacking
force in the flank. Think of each
one having an allowance Of only hve

Should the Firms have to fall back
to final defense lines to protect the
head of the gulf they will also need
artillery, and the allies can spare
that, too. To any one who knows
soldering it seems hard that soldiers
against such enormous numerical
odds should not have a show for
their little white alley.
