CHAPTER IV '
.;We had to run—run quickly—
more planes were coming over this
time, a bomb set fire to the cottage
and hien were parachuting down.
All that night we ran when it was .
safe to do mi. Then we met an old
• peasant with his cart and he start-
ed us on the road to Paris and
there Meridel found us. It was .God
who helped her to find us anal
bring us here."
"Yes," said Roger softly and his
eyes were steady on Rudolph's. "It
was indeed Gorl who helped."
"And He will take care of Bon-
homive Fricot up in heaven," said
Amine. "And punish' the one who
killed hint. Bonhontme Fricot was
bent and his beard was long. He
would) harm no one."
"It is murder to -'kill like that,"
said Pol Martin. "Then to laugh,
to smile as this one did after—"
"It is done with now. Finished,
eh, Rudolph?" said Roger.
* * *
"Madame requests that you be
ready within the hour -you, too,
M. Roger—you are all going to
Montreal."
,"The princess, too?" Roger sal
up eagerly:
But madame, during the pleasant
ride to the city, made Roger sit up
front with the chaffeur of the an-
cient ar, Her bright black eyes
glittered impishly. .'Later the prin-
cess may wish to ride up the Mount
in a barouche and perhaps you'd
like to go with her."
"Would you like that, hletidel?"
Roger asked. "It is really very
beautiful."
"But yes, I should love ` that,
monsieur, I have not been on a
real mountain since I left Gratzen.
I shall look forward to it"
And so, inthe warns, languorous
evening they drove up the moun-
tain and Roger told her of Maison-
neuve, of the golden history of thc•
great city -whose countless lights
glitterse in the dusk. "You will be
happy, Meridel—here among us.
It is a friendly land, a friendly peo-
ple.
But they were at the top of the
Mount now and the barouche haJ
stopped and the obsequious coach=
man was waiting to' help . made-
moiselle alight, For a _ long while
they stood looking down in silence
at the city, at the blue distance,
the. star-spangled sky over the
Adirondack:.
"Tt is so. lovely," she said, "so
lovely, so 'serene, Nothing will
ever come to shatter the peace oi
those skies?"
"Not in our time, my dear. None
of us have yet learned to thank
God sufficiently for that. 1 .ani so
glad — do glad you are here, Meri-
del, safe and cared for and happy.
You are happy now, aren't you?"
"Happier than I ever dared hope'
in those days—"
— i should like to >make you
happier still.. If I may hope—"
She smiled at him, looked up at
the broad shoulders that bulked
above her, at his face, dark and
lean -jawed and so wise for one so
.young. Strange, swift world. They.,
had met only last night and now
he spoke to her of love She could
see it to his earnest eyes, read it
in the rough tones of his voice, But
her heart was not yet receptive to
love and she wondered if it would
ever be again—and.. then she
.thought of the night in Gratzen
so much like this, when she and
that other youth, so young and gay
and glad of heart had cimbed the
mountain road to the castle.
"You make my heart glad, Rog-
er..: But you i'Io! Whatyou would
say is always sweet to hear; but 1
"it is too soon for me. It seems
of small importance—our ownloves
and hates, when hatred'has become
a tide of the sea add love a van-
ished army."
"It is one of the things we can
cling to—so it seems to me. ' Cling
to hungrily, But it is perhaps too
sdon, Ivferidel. After a little while
perhaps-"
"No. I have never before met
anyone like you, any girl who made
me feel as you have done. And
the princess part has little to do
with it,"
"I am glad of that. You would
have found me the same if I'd been
a scullery maid?"
"Yes, the same."
* * *
She thought of Michel, who bad
been sad because she had changed
from a peasant girl to a princess.
As if it mattered, as if that should
diseottrage him and drive frim away
on his lonely roadl But it bad been
different then, even though the old •
castle was already tottering on its
rocky buttresses and the winds of
change were rustling around its
keep.
They drove down the mountain
and somehow he was not unhappy,
though 1re had been unable to say
the things that were clamouring to
be uttered. They wandered about
the city, into paces where Roger
had never' been before. Doors and
windows were open; the night was.
sultry the air charged with the
threat of thunder. From a little
basement restaurant the music of
a violin and a piano came fittingly
up to 'then and Meridel's fingers
closed hard on his -wrist as she.
stopped, chin lifted, eyes bright,
like one :ost 111 a dark wood who
hears the winding of a golden horn.
"It is a song of Gratzen l" she
said. "It is a song of my people)
Come—conte quickly, please!"
* *. • *
Roger sharing her eagerness, fol-
lowed her down the steps into the
little taproom, It seemed to be
three-quarters filled by the huge
man in a white apron who came
forward to meet them, a wide smile
on his ruddy face. He stopped
suddenly and his little shoe -button
eyes all but popped from their
cuns of aE "Gracious lady!,
• Highshioness I Itf"is you 1 see here—
here!" And, by. some miracle, he '
bowed low until they saw only the
shiny bald pate fringed. by long
white locks.
The boy and girl left piano and
fiddle and came to stand,- behind
him and bend low in an Old -World
cnrtesy.
"My friends!" Meridel's voice
was gentle, her eyes shone., She
stretched out her hands to them
aollthey kissed the white fingers
reverently. 'Jules Goujog-.Jules of
the Coq l'or; and little Emil and
little Magda." She looked fondly
on the old man and his grandchil-
dren, Their mother was dead, their
father would be fighting if life Was
in hint yet. "It is so-good'—so good
to find you here, niy friends, my
own people."

"It is like seeing heaven, High-,
"less. You will 'sit; yes, please, and

he said, "Here we can hope to
build our happiness' once again.
You, Princess, are well here?"
"Well, indeed, Jules -and Pol
Martin and little Rosins.. We live
at a„grand that,feau Philibert which
belongs to Uncle Ru••li, who is a
very great inan here and very rich,
You will remember the -Baron.
Rudi, my frieind?”
"Well I `remember hint, High-
ness,"
ighness,'t said Jules thinking ony brief-
fy of the long, unsettled score
chalked behind the bar of his ipn fit
that far-off, lan,l. "He was a gay
young man, the baron, "1 am' happy
that the world has used him well.
Tell him he is always welcome at

Chronicles of
G
Ginger F
By Gwendoline: P. Clarke
i
After several days of fine weatl
er, complete with warm, drying
winds, our thoughts were'hopefu -
ly turning ones again to spring
seeding—only it would -seem more
like summer seeding at this
date. However call it spring or
summer—it ..doesn't make any dif-
ference—for it is raining again,
just another good 'old soaker. So
that's that. '
Yesterday, we had a houseful of
family week -enders and we all
went for a drive. It is said that
misery likes' company but 1 cart
assure you it didn't make Partner
or I feel the least bit better to pass
farm after farm in no better condi•
tion as to field crops than our awn,
Some of the wheat wasn't too bad
but we didn't see one field of spring,
grain that showed any promise at
all.
Our drive took us' to Melton air•
port—a place that we like to visit
about once a year anyway. We re-
member it from the time when
construction work was first started
-when there was nothing there
at all other than a corner store;
a few farm houses, and construc-
tion gangs and machinery at work,
Now the runways, the various
aeroplane plants, TransCanada
sheds and dwelling houses cover
acres and acres of land, Any time'
we went there during the last few
years we always found the place
seething with activity, planes of
every description coming and go.
iag all the time, Yesterday it was
very different—in fact the place
seemed dead. It certainly looked
as .if the war was over. Trainer
Wanes were conspicuous only by
their absence. A. lone Lancaster
took qff, circled around a few times
and 'then land, 1 again, One Trans-
Canada Airliner was pushed' out
Of its shed, given a warming -up and
then left alone. Around five o'clock
a plane came . in front Chicago.
Ten passengers alighted—as note
chalantly as if they were stepping
off a street -car. The plane was re.
fuelled, . mail 'and baggage ,put
aboard and in about twenty min.
utes she took offagain, this time
for Ottawa and Montreal and with
onlysix passengers. And how I
wish I had been one' of • them; 1
hope it may yet be my good for-
tune to go up in the air at least
once before I go underground.'
* * *
To review events further back
in the week: We had a:letter from
son Bob, at present stationed in
(oerniany—and if you think the
Nazis are completely subdued take
note of this—and remember it was
Written 8 days after peace was de
clared. I quote from the letter. "So
far I carry :on, dodging- mines as
usual—and bullets. too: A Jerry
sniper put a bullet into my instru.
anent panel yesterday, I got away
pretty quick I can tell you and told
the M.P.'s. I don't know whether
they got the guy or not. I sure
hope so as he had shot four of out
guys that day already. It happened
as I was driving through a Ger-
man town. The bullet came'
through the back of the Cab—and.
I'll swear it made a detour around
my head before it smashed into
the instrument panel. Now I have
another hole for fresh air anyway.
Half an hour later I nearly piled
my truck up because I had to take
to the ditch to avoid hitting a Jerry
civilian. Today a Jerry asked me
for .a cigarette. I opened nay case,
took out a smoke, lit it myself and
just looked at hint. I never said -
a word but he caught on pretty
darn quick."
When one gets a letter like that
and realises that our boys are still.
at the mercy of death -dealing snip-
ers
nipers one getr rather disgusted at
the verbal striping that is going on
in our own country, particularly in
political circles,

World Sugar Stock
Lowest In Years
Canada's Sugar Ration cut a fur-
ther five pounds for the remainder
of 1045 is a reminder of the vast'
adjustments that have to be made
before world economy becomes
normal again, says' the Ottawa
Citizen: "The lower ration will bring
the per capita consumption of
Britain, the United States and
Canada to an annual rate of
70,8 pounds. The 1044 averages,
were: U. S., 89; Great Britain, 71.5;
and Canada, 85,5 pounds per per-
son per year. World sugar stocks
at the beginning of 1945 tvere 4.1
million tens, lowest in many years,
Last year the carry-over was 5.5
million tons, and in 1943- it was
6.5 million tons.
Last year, according to the St-
Catharines Staltdard, Southwestern
Ontario alone produced 40,000,000
pounds of Leet sugar, and one au
thority states that the an.ount could
be doubled this year, if the growers
had priority on farm help. The
third largest refinery in the world,
at Chatham, was idle last year. It
is an important subject, in view
of the recent reduction in the sugar
ration. And, sugar will he short un..-
