A square envelope to a familiar
hand caught his eye. He opened it
a little curiously. V+''bat could Vit.
Denby be writing hint about? His
long flngens drew out an artistic
Ohrdstmtas card. A conservative
with an an okl Christian carol
printed in English letters, That was
all, except the signature. "Eleanor
Denby."
A flush stained his face, an un-
definable something sent the blood
singing through his veins. , "Elea-
nor," ,he said softly; "a (beautiful
name; how queer that I never heard
lit before,"
Then, as if resenting his weak-
ness and sentiment, he dug into his
mall again, But try as he would,
he could not concentrate on the
things that bad meant anything
to hint before, Something had
happened to Robert Dutton; a
Christmas greeting from a secre-

rushing around in circles. He saw

He sic`:e,l up H'i's letter again.
After all, maybe his kid brother
wr-t't so crazy. The thought was
pushing throughhis mind that may-
ue it was be who lacked real sense,
Tltis time he read the letter in a
different stood. "Lot's give Dad and

"Nothing personal or precious

over in his 'mind. Hal was right.
Someone else could handle the
things that had seemed so terribly
important. A few hours of confu-
sion, perhaps; then things would go
on as before. The world would for-
get him in a day.
His fingers reached for the pen
upon his desk, ''Dear Hal:' he
began; "1 heartily -agree with your

make plans to give Dad and Mother

aloud, as he finished the letter with
a flourish.

munden't was Spoken by our Lord on
the last night of his earthly mlai$-
try hist before he was betraned and
;trreited. In the Upper Room they
had kept the Passover, our Lord bad
inrittuled the Lord's Supper, he had
given his disciples that never -to -be -
forgotten demonstration of htunil-
ity when he washed the disciple's
feet. He had warned Judas of the
treachery that he was about to
commit and Judas had just gone
out to betray him, It was then
just before he was arrested, while
there was ci1111 time and no doubt
thinking at his 'followers in all the
future that Jeans gave them this
commandment for said he, By this
shall all men know that ye are my
disciples, (Let us notice that it
was addresser to his disciples, to his
follower's. He had already sum-
mei up the Ten Commandments in
two creat commandments, ''Thou
shalt love the Lord tby God: with all
thy heart and with all thy soul and
with all thy mind and with all thy
strength" and "thy neighbor, as
thyself;' and he had also made
clear who is our neighyor by his
parable o•t the good Samaritan, but
here he gives this new command-
ment to his followers. Christian
people are to love others as they
love themselves, that commandment
has not been done away with, it
still holds good, but there is also
the other commandment that our
Lord himself calls "a -+linty com-
mandment,'' that is. just as binding
to Christian people as any of the
others. How necessarily surely

A similar increase in the num-

forecast by the registrar. Last
