SYNOPSIS
Beautiful, red-haired Gillian
Meade, niece of Colonel Ans-
elm Nleade,, wishing to re- ,
store the rapidly -dwindling
family fortune and to provide
for her sister, Deborah, prom-
ises to merry wealthy Jon
Weyer, Afterwards she meets
Simon leilligrew, best friend
of Jaffry Clay, young poet to
whom Gillian had been engag-
ed At first Simon blames
Gillian for Jeffry's death; later
falls in love with her—and
Gillian with him. Admitting
their love for each other, Gil-
lian tells John she can't marry
him, then goes to work in
Simon's printery in Montreal.
Success comes to them when
Simon is called to New York
—one of their books has been
chosen the Book -of -the -Month.
While he is away Gillian opens
Jaffry Clay's newly -arrived
manuscript. And because of
what she finds refuses to ac-
cept an emerald ring which
Simon brings her from the
east.

not until her hands were free of
Jaffry's story. She could not. To-
morrow she would wear it with
pride. Tonight, when she consigu-
ea that thing to the kindly elames,
there would be no ring of Simon's
on her finger.
It was late when Simon left Gil-
lian at her apartmeut. He said he
was tired after the hurry and ex-
citement of his trip. He would go
straight home.
Site save Simon plenty of time
to be on his way, then moved out
of the doorway an along the
street.
She stood for a 'while across the
mane from the Printery. She
crossed the square than and open-
ed the door.
She went cautiously upstairs.
feeling her way,
Finding the manuscript, she laid
It on Simon's desk, pulled it from
the envelope and carried it to
the fireplace. Slue found a book
of matches in her pocket and
struck one and carried the flame
to the tap sheet. It caught slowly,
the flame creeping over the black
lines, like the tide across the
sand, blotting them out forever.
Faster, taster, she urged—burn
faster. Journal of My Loves—one

"Thank God!" she whispered.
"Thank God, it's due now, and

turned sloivly, to meet Simon's
startled eyes,
"Wire', Gillian Whatever are you
doing?"
"I was burning—some rubbish.
Oh, SOICaE, odds and ends. Nothing
Important"
"But why in the dark, Gillian?
I left my brief ease here and re-
membered when I was part way
home some things I wanted to look
at."
The Journal Is Burned
"Oh it's nothing, Simon. 1—"
her hand flew to her throat, and
her eyes dilated and all her life
seemed to stop. She could not
move, could not speak, could not
tear her gaze front the envelope
oa Simon's deelt. From where she
stood she could see the bold let-
ters of the label— "Journal of My
Loves." And "Jeffry Clay" below
it.
Simon walked over to the desk
and picked it up.
"You beetled the story Jeffry
left. You flung it In the fire rather

world know what you really were

She managed to speak at last.
"I've learned to take It, from you.
Now yon can take it, for once and
all, from me; 1 burned his story,
yes! And if he'd written a thousand
like it, I'd have burned them too.
And if you think the world Is any
worse off for not being able to
read the records of a small-time
Don Juan, you're making a sad
mistake."
"I hate you for this," he said:
quietly. "You wouldn't have gone;
out of your way to lie to me, you
wouldn't have 'burned that mann—
script if you were not afraid of
it, of what it might do to you.,
you couldn't afford to let it see
the light, could you? It accused
yon, didn't it?"
She said, "I'll go now, !Simon.,
I-1. suppose that's the only, thing
to do."
"What else?" He threw the emp-
ty envelope •on the desk and loola,
ed forlornly at it and at her,
"This was why yoa would not take,
the ring from me this afternoon,.
you had to do this rotten thing
first. Then you could have worn,
It with what you could call a clear,:
eonscience. You have no cone,
ecience. no heart, no—" •,.
"Bitter things, Simon." Her
voiee was soft, "I have to •go.
won't come back here, So it''
good-bye, Simon."
Back to Rydal
She could never remember what
Anse said when she groped her
way up the dark stairs and into
the quiet, comfortable room where
he sat surrounded. by his booke!
and maps.
She became calmer after a little
while. She sat there, weak and •
spent, With no strength in her, no
deeire, no power to straighten out
the tangle of her thoughts. She
had lost Simon. Tha one thing
was fixed in her mind.
She said finally: 'It's all over,
Anse—between Simon and me."'
She laughed. "Jeffry Clay left a
manuscript that I read and that
I would not have Simou read -1
will not say why. TonighteI
burn-
ed that manuscript and Simon
found out. The title of the book
was 'Journal of My Loves.'"
"You still care for Simon—You
know you do."
"I think I'll have to go my way •
and let him go his, I -1'm not
going back to the printery any
more. I can't stay here, Anse.
Can't we go back to Rydal?"
'We'll go."
"We can't start too eoon to, suit
me, Anse."

Iceland Almost '
Had Steam Heat
It's going to be a cold winter
in Reykjavik, capital of Iceland.
Despite its name, the little is-
land is a regular Yellowstone
park of hot springs and steaming'
volcanoes. Before the war start-
ed, Reykjavik had started. work
on a project to pipe the ateam
into central heating plants for the
city — and maybe hothouses to
grow lettuce and some of the
other things Iceland has to 'im-
port if it gets them at all.
German engineers had been
building the powerhouses, and
deep trenches had been dug in the
streets of Reykjavik by the spring
of 1940. The steam. pipes „were
lying on the docks of Copenhagen,
Denmark, ready for shipment.
Then came the blitzkrieg. .
The German army seized the
iron pipe, the British swarmed
into Iceland and seized the Ger-
_ man engineers—and Reyhjavikers
are wondering where they'll even
have the money to buy coal, after
spending so much on thescheme
to use native volcanoes.
King of 'Belgians
Is Showing Strain
An almanac cover picture of
King Leopold of the Belgians
showed that the 40 -year-old pris-
°nor-monarch had grown notice-
ably thin since he last was seen
with his troops.
Belgians were quick to notice
the changes in the king's fea-
tures when the first picture of
him since he capitulated to the
Germans last year was released.
The photograph, Showing Leo-
pold and his three children in the
gardens of the Laeken Royal
palace, is on the cover of tli,o 1942
almanae put On sale on behalf of
chaiitable institutione.
It was taken last',June on Prin.
cess Josephine Charlotte's con-
firmation day and showed the
king in dark mufti.
Since the king retired to the
solitude of Laekeii Palace three
miles north of Brussels as a war
prisoner, there had been only
scant news about his health and
activities,
There were no public cerernon-
ies on Leopold's birthday anniver-
eery, November 3, although mass
was sung and payera said for
in all the churches of Bel-
gium. ,;•

Scotland Still Has

High Prices At'"iecent *Sale
Shows Faith in Future of
, Their Country
From Sccitlanci comes condon-
ing -evidence of the faith which
men close to the Scottish soil
have in the future of their coun-
try, says the Ottawa Journal. At
a recent sale ofeXyrshire cattle
from the world.fainens Lessnessok

paid by English and Scottish
breeders are believed to have been
the highest average for an Ayr-
shire sale within the past quarter
century. This la a country with
the threat of invasion Mid bomb-
ing constantly hanging over it.
According to a cabled report of
this great annual auction of fine
dairy cattlereceived le Ottawa
by Mr, Frank Napier, secretary
of the Canadian Ayrshire Breed-
ers' Association, the total for 62
young animals sold at the Leas-
nessock sale was $62,902.92. Thirty
young bells averaged about 51,345
"each' and 22 young heifers about
$1,025.
The highest price paid for a bull
calf at the sale was $8,477,,,and for
a young •feteale 52,653.
The farmers of the 'United King-
dora must feel secure in their 'fu-
ture to be willing to pay such
prices for young animals. Faith
such as that may be difficult for
some to understand but it ie an in-
sight into the determination of
the British people.4 and especially
