The door was, locked...,andshe didn't have the key. In her moment of greatest distress she had nowhere ,to go. Miss Gray had enjoyed herself a great deal in her short life. She "had everything it takes", and was making the most of it. She was tali; attractive,, capable, and well-off. Life was a gay circle of parties, late nights, new faces, and...mea-ninglessness- It was a strange fact. After the first few new cars, and the first dozen or so parties, every event seemed pretty much the same as the one before. Oh yes, she "had fun", but she always woke up more unhappy and bored, more ill at ease. * •* * Tonight, Shirley had been "flying low" along the freeway that passed close by her house. Suddenly she was approaching the main ''entrance, but it looked somewhat different. The white marble had taken on a pearly appearance, and the criss-cross , desigfi on the doors trade them look like gates. Morplexing ofall, she couldn't ' member hiring a doorman...esp ' !ally not. a dumpy old' man who would dare to wrap himself in a white - sheet when he was o n duty! She was surprised, not at his asking her if she had the Key, but at the pity and sorrow in his kind voice. She did not have the Key. The kind old man .said to her, "Go back and remember, learn and change, find and trust the Key." * * .* Someone was calling her name. She opened her eyes. Her pastor (whom she had avoided lately) stood beside her hospital 'bed. "Wt is 'the Key'?" • "Christ." 14) tochaish §eve al veil* you g folk of family of Montreal,, and Mr, and the. area are enjoying swimming Mrs. Wilfred Evans of lessons in Goderich and , lidgetown.'
