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." * *• i• "It is like seeing heaven, High-, "less.

"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 my inn, which I call to the Coq- d'or in memory of old times.".

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, d 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.
