Her nails, Nancy saw, were beautifully buffed, but there was no rich liquid polish on them. She remembered thankfully that she was still wearing her gloves and that she had a bottle of nail polish remover in her bag. Then she glanced at Peggy's hands. "Peggy!' she cried. "Your rings" In the excitement Peggy had forgotten the ring. For a °moment she stared uncomprehendingly at Nancy, then down at her hand at which the other girl was looking so intently. Maxine, too, was star- ing in surprise at the ring. She picked up her sister's hand that was hanging foolishly at her side. "Peggy!" she cried. "You en- gaged? I had no idea. Why hadn't you written me?" Over and over to herself Peggy was saying, "Why, oh why did I ever do anything so silly? Maxine will be utterly disgusted with me when I explain." She knew she would explain everything at the earliest opportunity. She could not let Maxine believe something that was not true. Aloud she said: "It's quite recent. No one knows. You know how Gran is, Don't men- tion it to her. I'd better take it off now before 1 forget it. Gran doesn't know anything about it, you see." * * ,a She wanfeu to get the ring out of sight to forget about the whole thing. Opening her purse she dropped the ring inside, then closed the bag firmly. Maxine was watching her anx- iously. "Is he nice?" she asked seriously. "Someone the will all .like?" "Oh, yes," Peggy assured her. "I'll tell you all about it later. Conic on, let's curry, Gran will be so excited about your coming." She had not noticed Nancy's un- usual silence. Maxine waved to old friends as they drove through Marshville, who, stopping to stare a moment in surprise, waved back in excite- ment. "Tell me about Gran." she de - Headache Nothing is more depress sing than headaches... Why suffer?...Lambly's will give instant relief.

"She is still the sweetest thing on earth and I don't believe you will notice any difference in her at all. She continues to run the house — and mc." Both girls laughed. "Does she still get her express packages ev- ery week?" Maxine asked. "Every Monday. Rain or shine." . "And you have never fund out what is in them?" * * Peggy shook her head. "I never expect to. I have even given up wondering about them. That pack- age just comes every Monday and William takes it to Gran's room and that's that. "Bless her heart!" Maxine cried. 'If she wants a secret — when was it she started getting those express packages? About the time of her 'seventieth birthday, wasn't it? Well, if she wants a secret from the time she was seventy until she is a hundred, 1 guess she can have it without our prying into it. "It's grand to be home," she con- tinued as they turned in at the gates of Rosewood. William came hurrying out of the house. when he heard the sound of wheels, and stared at Maxine un- believingly, "De Lord be praised," he cried rushing forward to assist her to the ground. Mrs. Horton had come to the open door to greet Peggy's friend but she could see only Maxine. She opened her arms wide and the girl rushed into them, literally picking the fragile old lady up in her arms. "Gran, Gran!" she cried. * *. * Mrs. Horton's eyes were wet with tears as she eagerly drank in every detail of her granddaughter's appearance. She held her off from her for an ,instant to study her again, then smiling she reached up and patted Maxine's cheek before tucking her eldest granddaughter's hand beneath her arni. It was not until she reached out her other hand for Peggy, who, with Nancy, had been standing near by, that she seemed conscious of the pres- ence of an outsider. A shadow crossed her face. But it was only a shadow. "Forgive me," she exclaimed, ex- tending her hand and sniffling gra- .ciously. "I am deligi.ed to have you with us." Maxine was taken to her old room after she had been to the kitchen to see Aunt Jenny, form- erly her nurse, and th. other serv- ants who had gathered there to welcome her. Peggy took Nancy upstairs with her. "Cone on," she said as they en- tered Nancy's room.

Churchill to Canada: "Cod Bless You Ii!" THE familiar "V" sign and a 1 hearty "God Bless you all!" were Prime Minister Churchill's greetings to the thousands of excited Canadians who gathered around his train at stops along the way between Halifax and Quebec - As the Canadian National Railways special passed through Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Quebec, the three provinces put on a show of weather worthy of themselves and their distinguished visitor, and at Truro, Moncton and other stops, the people thronged to cheer. The C.N.R, Photograph special arrived at Quebec on the dot of ten o'clock after a splendid trip. N. B. Walton, executive vice president of the railway, was in personal charge of arrangements. This is Churchill's fifth wartime journey over the Canadian National.

She was bending over a suitcase and did not see the wry face her guest made. "Let me see your ring again, Peggy. 1 didn't get a very good look at it at the station." * Peggy gritted her teeth at the thought of the ring, but answered hastily: "Oh, not now. Gran might con: in, or somethff.ig. I'll show it to you later. But where is yours?" she asked suddenly turn- ing to Nancy. It had dust occurred to hes- that she had not noticed a ring on Nancy's finger. \Vith a toss of her head the other girl explained. "1 gave it back to Pidge,' "You mean you aren't engaged any more?" Peggy dropped on the side of the bed. Why hadn't she had sense enough to say that? "No, I'm not," Nancy answered crossly. "Although I know he is still in love with me. You haven't told me the name of the man you are going to marry," she contin- ued. (Continued Next Week) Spectator Wins A spectator at a recent steeple- chase at an Australian jockey Club placed a sizeable bet on a horse which threw his jockey going over the last jump. Dashing out on the track, the spectator mounted the horse and rode him in, finishing in second place. The judges ruled the procedure legal.

One of the things we shall find out after the war is over is where everybody lived before the war brought us a housing shortage. —Peterborough Examiner Kaiser's And Hitler's Submarine Warfare In the early months of 1917, the Kaiser came within a hairline of victory with his submarine war- fare. In this war Hitler has made far greater use of the U-boat. The full part it played in the Nazis' near -victory in 1940-41 won't, of course be known until after the war, but it will doubtless be found to have been tremendous. Suffice it for now that the joint Roosevelt -Churchill figure of 500 German subinariifes destroyed since September, 1939, compared with only 203 sunk from 1914 to 1918!

Clarke P P P * 1 Dishes are dome, floors swept, beds made, so I thought I might get a little time at this column be- fore thinking about our next meal. But now I see the mailman at the gate—that means an interruption. You know . . there is something about the nail -- something that makes you feel you just have to get it when it's there. There may be only a paper—on the other hand there may be letters. And what letters mean to a mother you don't need me to tell you. Some families are content to wait until the men coupe in from the field before getting the mail. That is some- thing I can't do. Of course, I must admit, getting the mail does rather interfere with one's morning work, and of course, if there are letters you just have to read them. But if there are none then you just work that much harder to forget yot.r ,iii appointment This morn- ing I won't have to walk down for this mail. I see Partner walk- ing up the lane with the mail tucked under is arm. Excuse me one minute — I must see what there is . . . Well, 1 may as well get on with my work—there's "No Letter To- day". Maybe tomorrow. Yes, that is what we alwaye say, isn't it — maybe tomorrow. But tomorrow is twenty-four hours away. 4 * Last week was quite a week. Tuesday morning 1 got up wonder- ing .vhich of the many jobs on my waiting list should be tackled first. And then sown after break- fast, there came a knock at the door. It was the paperhanger. Would it be convenient to have the ceilings done today? He had a painting job across the road but it looked so much like rain he was afraid to start. "Come right on in," was my answer, "of course I am not ready, but I soon can be!" And that, my friends was no idle boast. Almost in less time than it takes to tell, the living -room furniture was out in the hall. The next day the weather was still threatening so we got the hall done, upstairs and down, sidewalls and ceiling too. That's what conies of having paper in the house ahead of time. "Be prepared" is a real good motto, don't you think? Imagina being so lucky as to get a paper- hanger these days. * * * Saturday was a nig day—the day of our local fair. It was fine and waren, and there was a splen- did attendance. Daughter and a friend came from Tor nto to take in the show but we didn't see then until we got home. "Meet your friends a, the fair". Sure, that's fine—if you can find thein! Sometimes one sees more by stay- ing put than by moving around. One time when Partner and I were resting our weary feet we saw two men and a woman making their way across the race-track.'They were "Hilly -billies" if I ever saw any. One of the Hien was very dirty and unshaven, the other youn- ger and slightly cleaner, and the woman shuffled after them clut- ching a shabby purse tightly to her person sober and harmless hut some - sober and harmlehss but some- what confused and nervous, Was this a big day for then • . , had they come out of the hills specially to attend the fair? I couldn't help wondering as I watched them, but they went their way and we went ours, so I suppose that is all I shall ever know. Just one fleeting glimpse of "how others live". LONE SURVIVOR' When the Allied Airforce bombed Cassino in Italy, only three men of 100 men of the 2nd Company, 3rd Nazi Paratroop Regiment of Gen- eral Heidrick's famous First Ger- man Paratroop Division, survived. Since then one was killed by Can- adian shell fire, another died of wounds and this Nazi, Senior Pri- vate Ernst Markert, 18, surrend- ered to the Canadians only after his last round of ammunition had been fired. He had seen his entire company wiped out, retreated more than 250 miles, surrendered on the Gothic Line and still believes in Hitler and that Germany will win the war. He is a member of the Hitler Youth Movement and wears the Iron Cross of the Second Order for service at Cassino.
