CHAPTER VIII
1 Fosdick, making his .way back to
that hive where he had his office,
growled to himself like an angry
bear.
"I thought better of him than
that!" he said to himself bitingly.
"Assumed 'name—making love to a
girl! Always thought hini guilty,
but he was a boy and the old Man
may have been provoking; was.
mighty provoking sointithes, Now
be's a man—no excuse at all! I
ought to tell Burleson; site's his
niece."
IIe suddenly decided to go down
to the great Trust Company build -
Mg where Burleson held sway. Fos-
, dick had been doing .. little busi-
ness for him and Burleson had tele-
phoned several, times for him to
come over and close it up,
Burleson was affable; he wanted
to see him, he said ;about the Grant
Barton estate. Fosdick almost
laughed; he had come about Mark
Grant, For fifteen years the:.execu-
tors had held the Barton money in
trust; the only heir was in jail.
Burleson recalling some. details
about it now, looked across the ta-
ble at his colleague.
"Isn't it near time for that boy
to be out?" he asked suddenly.
"He's out"
Burleson was perceptibly star-
tled. "Since when-
"Four or five weeks I think—
maybe more." Fosdick drummed
on the table with his fingers; he
was considering whether he would
,tell Burleson all about .it
or not.

carne here to get his aunt's
- money; you remember she left him
about twenty thousand — more or
less." .
* *
Burleson shook his heads he had
. shifted his chair a little, and lay.
back in it now,, thinking.
"Ile: hasn't thought of ,clairrting
Barton's money yet, has he?"
"Ile says - he won't until he's
'cleared,"" Fosdick's smile widened:
"Cleared?" Burleson did not
smile. "The deuce! Does . he ex-
pect to clear himself after fifteen
years?"
"He probaby knows he, can't be
cleared at all," Fosdick replied af-
fably "and he's talking bluffl"
"But he hasn't tried toget that
money," Burleson persisted.
"Oh, he will!" Fosdick retorted
testily;. "of course he will!"
There was a longpause and then
Burleson said flatly: "I think he
should have it," - '{
Fosdick looked at him thought-
fully, something like a twinkle in
Ids eye, "I didn't know you liked
him. You testified against him,
Burleson.,"
"That's neither' here nor there,"
said the great man bluntly; "he
was seventeen, wasn't he? What's
he like now?'
* * *
Fosdick considered. "He's big,
----good looking; got a snap_'to him.
You wouldn't know .him, I advised
him to go West."
Burleson nodded„ It seemed to
Fosdick that he had aged lately;
he was less erect, less keen.
"The West is the best place for
him; he can live it down out there.
Fifteen years, isn't it? By Jove!"
Burleson drew a long breath, "it's
a slice out of any man's life!"
Burleson swung back in his chair,
staring out of the window. "Look
here," he said slowly, "if he needs
a little help—you understand? A
fresh start. I don't want my name
used, but I'll give it to him."
Fosdick stared. Then he laughed
dryly, "Would you like to see hint
at your house?"' he asked mali-
ciously; a perverse imp had, so
far, kept him silent. It was amus-
ing to imagine the great man's sur-
prise.
"At my house?" Burleson
frowned. "No! What do you mean
by that?"
" "You wouldn't know him if he
carne,' that's all," Fosdick replied
coolly, "especially if he changed his
name."
* *
Burleson nodded "Is he consid-
ering that?"
"Decidedly," Fosdick laughed;
"I think he's done it already,"

"Well, I don't know as I'd blame
him for that either!" Ile glanced
out of the window again absently.
It was plain that his mind was pre-
paring to exclude Fosdick. "When
you get those shares come up and
we'll talk - it over. I may buy' a
few more," he said, shortly, re-
verting to their prevous business.
Fosdick rose; he understood his
dismissal Suddenly Ile made up
his mind not' to tell Burleson about
Mark yet. But he stopped at the
door to send a shaft back,
'You'll have to get someone else
to help you out with Grant—if you
want to start hint—I've always be-
lieved him guilty, you know."
Burleson frowned slightly. "That
shouldn't keep you from being
fair," he said bruskly; "it was un-
premeditated;. he's been punished".
After Fosdick went Burleson rose
from .his seat and stared out of the
window. It was beginning to spit
snow, IIe summoned his secretary,
•ave a few sharp orders and left
his office.

He began to walk steadily uptown
and the dash of snow in the*air in-
vigorated him.
The crowds were thinning a lit-
tle now, as he made his Way up-
town, but still they hemmed hint
in and he felt that singular loneli-
ness which assails the wayfarer- in
a city throng. He was an old man.
and his wife and his children were
long since dead; it seemed to him,
sometimes, that a singular ill luck,
in that respect. had pursued him.
He had lost three sons. He had no
heir, he had made up his mind to
leave his estate, the major part
of it, to Pam. She was not a blood.
relation, only his wife's niece, but
the girl had crept into his Heart
and softened it: she was the only
one for whom he felt real tender-
ness; theonly one for whom he
would have made a sacrifice.
,* * *
He wasssrogressing steadily when
someone brushed against him in
the crowd, laughed saucily and
caught his sleeve. It was Pain her-
self.
"I've been chasing yoin half a
block, Uncle Herbert!" she panted.
IIis face softened; he was often
amazed at his own weakness for,
this girl; he drew her hand through
his arm.
"You ought to go .home, miss; it's
going to- snow hard!" His tone
toaalwayskind,

She laughed. "1 love snow! I've
been 'out with Aunt Lynn—you
know what that means!"
"A socially conducted journey,
eh?" he smiled grimly. "You're a
little rebel, Pani."
"Uncle Herbert, I wish you'd tell
Aunt Lynn that I'm old enough to
go. where I please and—and Archie

"So Landon meddles, does he? I

General Takes
Ducking Instead
Of Army `Duck'
A shore party from a Navy at-
tack cargo thip was unloading its
cargo on the Leyte beachhead
when a small landing'. boat ap-
proached. •
A signalman, charged with
keeping Isis area clear of 'other
craft, shouted: "Get that boat out
of here!"
Ignoring the order the War De-
partntent related the boat pro-
ceeded toward the beach and
struck bottom 15 yards from shore.
An Army lieutenant stuck his head
above the boat ramp and shouted
for an amphibious "duck" to come
out and 'pick up the stranded pas-
sengers.
An assistant 'headmaster yelled
back: "Walk in, the water's fine:"
The ramp on the landing craft
dropped, and out stepped Gena

l:ed Commander, 'into the waist -

IIe waded in, greeted the shore
party with a smile, and remarked:
"Good morning. How're things

The People Pay
For What They Get
There was a recent reminder by
a member of the Saskatchewan.
Government, that in order to im-
plement its state health program,
at a cost of $10,000.000, provincial
tax revenue would have to be in-
creased 50 per cent, says the Reg
iiia. Leader Post.
Wliat it all comes down to of
course is this: People can have
these services and within reason
they may be desirable; but they
can only be had at the cost of in-
creased taxes in one form or an-
other. It is easy to promise some-
thing for nothing. But it iS quite
another thing to give it.
In the realm of social security
as well\as elsewhere, people them=
selves have got to pay for what
they get.
Glove Care
Pigskin gloves are apt to get
stiff' and rough, ever} after the
most careful washings. Use saddle

If the gloves are very soiled, wash
with mild suds first, then finish

The Saviour gradually gathered
;around hint twelve disciples, giving
them special powers to heal all
manner of disease. From M.
learn that they were'sent
two' by two.
Their mission was strictly
"House of Israel". The Lost sheep
of, Israel were, not only th
moral or crimminal jews,
those who were without f
Christ as the Messiah. It wa
will 4hat the gospel should first be
given to Israel. Not' unti

The disciples were to speak the
words .of John the Baptist, "The
Kingdom of heaven is at hand."
The king had come and was about
to set up his kingdom but this was
dependent upon Israel' accepting
4iis royal standard of conduct. Not
by force was the kingdom to be, es-
tablished, but by preaching of the
word. Following • their preaching,
they were to do all manner of mi-
racles such as healing thesick,
raising thedead, casting out devils,
etc.
After the disciples had gone
forth on their missionary. journey,
Jesus also departed to different ci-
ties, teaching and preaching. Fol-
lowing his ministry we find the
Lord praying to God the Father,
thanking God for revealing the -
spiritual truths -unto the uneducat-
ed, though many of the highly edu-
cated Scribes. and Pharisee's under-
stood not. The son was in perfect
agreement with the will of God,
He was one with the Father in
whatever He willed.
* * *
No one can know the Son in all
the mysteries of His nature , and
fulli ess of His love except the
Father. Neither can anyone know.
the Father "dwelling in a light no
man can approach unto" except the
Son Christ Jesus. The Father tends
the Son and reveals Him, and
when He is received' 'IIe reveals
the Father.
Jesus, aware of the burdens of
life extends an invitation for alt
to come unto Him and receive rest.
Cast off the yoke of Satan which
is heavy and take His yoke upon
you, and you will receive rest for
your souls. Jesus is meek and
lowly, His yoke is easy and bur-
dens are light. Why not accept the
invitation?

of GINGER FARM .
Having' a soldier ''son go over-
seas has its compensations -`that
is if you have plenty of friends
' and relations in the Old Country, .
as we have. It is nice to get first
hand information of those whom
we have not seen for so long -
and it is nice to, know that our son
has somewhere to go where he is
sure of a welcome. Family .con-
tacts mean a great deal to us all,
especially at this time.
Bob was able to get four days
leave to visit his grandmother, and
other relations. Grandma is eighty-
seven and Bob writes of her —
"she is so old and so wise but the
air -raids have shattered her nerves
badly so that she is not able to
speak distinctly."- But still the two
of them enjoyed each other's com-
prny so much - after a separation
of fifteen 'years. Sometimes I
wonder if there is a special af-
finity between the very old and the
very young an understanding
which is not possible to those
whom a lesser number of years
divides. '
* * *
Son Bob' also visited a very,
great friend of mine who took him
around to some of the historic
places in +that district — places
which may be known to a few
readers of this column. Christ
church Catherdral was one of them,
built in 1903. The beautiful stained
glass windows art still there. They
were lucky enough to get permis-
sion to climb to the top of the
tower and into the belfry where
they saw the big clock wound up
by hand and were right behind it
when it struck the half-hour West-
minster chimes. One hundred and
forty-three steps took them to
the top of the one hundred and
fourteen -foot tower and from it
they could look all over the town
and across the channel. They also
went over the old Priory which
Bob described as one of the most
wonderful places he ever expects
tt, see. He was thrilled with it all.
I expect you will feel as we do,
that it is really marvellous so many
of these fine old buildings have
survived the terrific bombings to
which little. old England has been
subjected for so long. Will our
modern buildings last as long?
Following Bob's letter came one
from Grandma, or rather from her
daughter who lives with her, and
she was so distressed because the
house was very cold when Bob got
there - and because the blackouts
