By KATHLEEN NORRIS Fancying herself in love with Peter McCann, son of the wealthy Judge McCann, Sheila Garscadden met him secretly. Then she learned that he loved her but was to marry another girl, Gertrude Keane. When they started to leave, the door was locked, the building deserted. While trying to ezzape, they encountered two men, gangsters, who fearing Sheila and Peter know too much, kidnapped them and took them to a deserted farm- house. When they were released two days later, Sheila's family was skep- tical of her story. Her brother Joe produced a telegram, sent from Bos- ton;. which read: "Peter and I mar• ried here. Sheila." She had begged the gangsters to assure her family of her safety and this telegram was the result. When she denied they were married, her family was shocked. The next day,,Judge and Mrs. McCann pro- posed that Peter and Sheila marry. "And admit we were lying!" Sheila exclaimed angrily. She found a job at an employment agency as a wait- ress at an Atlantic City hotel and had worked Cheer.. ten.. clays -when Frank Mcdann appeared suddenly. He had traced her immediately but had not told her family her whereabouts. He persuaded her to return with him. 'About every third night i tele- phone Joe at the office," Frank went on, "and tell him to tell her that you're all right." "Is Joe working?" "Papa got hien a job, with a con- tractor." "Oh, that makes me feel happy!" "Sure it does," Frank sail en- couragingly. "Where is it?" "It's over on Long Island. Papas has some little houses there. Your mother and Angela were going down to look at one." house!" - "So that,` yon see, if you..did• go back, Sheila, you'd be in a new neighborhood—everything'd be dif- ferent—" if-ferent" But what rent would Ma have to pay for a place like that?" "Well, I guess that part of it wouldn't worry her. My father knew your father you know, and your father's father." Sheila pondered, r.•ith a knitted brow. "Your father's an awfully geed pian," she said slowly. "Sheila, why don't you come home!" Frank besieged her sudden- ly. "I can't," Sheila answered in a troubled tone. She did not look up; tears dropped on her hand. "They'd all think—everyone — that I had done something wrong," she said. "I couldn't face it." "You couldn't," he said persua- sively, "just slip in again, and put up with—whatever you had to put up with? Would it be so hard? We've all got to take it on the chin sometimes, you know. What do you care what people say? Your own people love you and want you. Isn't that all that :natters?" Earthquake and fire hacI torn her old world apart. Now she had had ten lonely, weary days in which to rebuild a new world within her own soul. Prayer, loneliness, most of all the contemplation of otner women's dives had helped her. ane sat pon- dering, looking down. And in the silence came the still clear voice, as of old. She must carry her load. The sheer heroism of it appealed Askyour deafer about the new Coleman Stoves that make their own gas or write — The Colemah Lamp and Stove Co.,Ltd., Dept. WI, Toronto, Ontario. to her. Perhaps the Sheila of a month ago might not have dared this But today's was a different woman. "My mother was awfully mean to me," she faltered. "I never knew the time when she didn't stand to one of us before!" "But you know why that was," Frank said, in his quick, sure way. "Your mother's like my mother, Sheila. There's just one thing gets her. And that's sin. You know that. Your mother thought you'd done something wrong. She thought that after all her love and teaching and prayers, you'd done something bad; that's what was killing her. -*rant," Frank concluded with great sin±piic- ity, "that's- what was eating her!'' There was a pause. Then Frank asked again: "Sheila, will you go node?" She looked ar him, suddenly sur- rendered. "Yes, I will, Frank." "Good girl," he said.. "Shall I just walk in on pry mother?"

"You're diff. -rent today from the poor little soul who came into our house two weeks ago, Sheila." He watched her, in satisfaction, for a few minutes and then added, with just a hint of his kindly and patron- izing air, "You have a new good friend in Miss Kennedy, Sheila." "Miss Kennedy?" "The young lady who's going to marry me in June." "Oh," said Sheila. "She's so much interested in ev- erything I tell her about you. She thinks—no, no sauce," Frank said, interrupting himself. "She thinks what everyone else does, that you're staying with some friends of your family. She doesn't know I'ni in the secret," he said. "I'll tell her this last chapter of your adventures to- night." "I hope it's the last!" aheila said. "Ah, yes, things will quiet down now. The newspapers won't be in- terested, once you're home and in a job again," Frank said. "Ger- trude's with her grandmother, and Pete's gone up to my uncle's in Pitts- burgh, for the time being anyway. Everything's jakel" he concluded. "Peter's given up his law?" "Oh, yes. He wasn't" Frank shook his head—"lie wasn't a law- yer!" he said. "My father's delight- ed to have hire with my uncle in the family business. To tell you the truth, Peter probably took up law work because he thought it was eas- ier than a job!'' he added, with a lenient, brotherly laugh. "You're a lawyer, Frank?" He looked surprised. "I'm in the district attorney's of- fice." "I knew you were -sort -of --- political." political." "Yes. Bernadotte wanted to live in the country," he said, but Mr. Lillie wants me here in town." Sheila watched ,him in fascinated admiration. "Is it interesting?" "Very." - "Is Miss Kennedy's father in poli- tics?"

The first thing he must do is to make plans to keep milk records. To do this he must secure a milk scale or spring balance, graduated in pounds and In tenths. This should be placed at a convenient point for the milker so that it is always before him when he finishes milking a cow. A milk sheet should be located close to the scale so that the weight of the milk can be recorded. 'Weighing milk will do no good unless the weights are recorded.

CSe issue 4o. 23—'37 D-2 k s Tra ts3175for Each Family fly nd Butcher, r, &tk er, Farther and 'mart Trade_All flare in It The tourist trade last year meant an additional revenue to Canada of $25 for every man. woman and child in the Dominion, or about $125 per family, --a not unimportant sung. So far as the District of Algoma and the city of Strait Ste. Mare is concerned, the revenue per person was probably 40 per cent. higher than the average for the Dominion, whichgives some idea of the ini- portance of the tourist trade to this area. And that revznue is fairly widely spread. The U. S. Chamber of Com- merce estimates that of every dollar the American tourist spends in Can- ada, 41 per cent goes for hotels and other lodgings or to restaurants, so that it is in turn passed on to the grocer, the butcher. the dairyman and the farmer. And what they do with the money when they get it passes it along to another large sec- tion of the population. And an industry which brings a revenue of about $175 per tami:ly in Algoma and which holds potential- ities for a much larger return is worth going after. Berlin is now the third largest city. in the world, next to New York and London. The .ome Corner By ELEANOR DALE Z9112=11110=2110r, Cooks with Careers Give Cake -Making Tips Famous chefs and caterers don't throw theircakes together with their blessing, the way many housewives deo. They cannot afford to waste money or lower their standards. That is why every' shining pastry and cake shop has a storeroom full of the choicest flours. Cake, flour, finely milled and protected from moisture is used in al these dainty confections, gorgeous angel food and clever choco- late cakes. Its delicate gluten res- ponds quickly to the leavening in cakes and gives that extra tenderness and lightness. Unusual and delicious is .Dixie White Cake. It has that popular coconut, to give a wonderful flavor to its delicate texture, 3 cups sifted cake flour. 3 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon lemon extract 4 egg whites, stiffly beaten 1-2 cup butter or other shortening 1-1-2 cups sugar 1 cup water 1 cup coconut, premium shred Sift flour once, measure, add bak- ing powder and salt, and sift to- gether three times. Cream butter thoroughly, add sugar gradually and cream together until light and fluffy. Add flour, alternately with water, a small amount at a time. Beat after. each addition until smooth. Add lemon extract and coconut. Beat un- til well mixed. Fold in egg whites' gently but thoroughly. Bake in a greased pan, 8 x 8 x 2 inches in a moderate oven (350 D. F.) 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until done. If desir= ed, cake may be frosted with coco- nut seven -minute frosting which is made by adding 1-2 can coconut, southern style shred, to seven -minute frosting, and sprinkling the remain- der of the long moist shreds over the frosting before it becomes firm. Stale or dry coconut spoils the flaver of the eake. Inexpensive and particularly good is CarrmeI Nut Loaf. 2 cups sifted cake flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 4 tablespoons butter or other. shortening 1 egg, unbeaten 1 cup sugar 3-4 cup milk 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 cup walnut meats, ehspped Sift flour once, measure, add bak- ing aowder and salt, and sift to- gether three times.

To Teach Jobless Domestic Science CALGARY. —Establishment of a cottage school where unemployed girls would be taught domestic science is advocated by Miss Mary Duncan, young Calgary woman law- yer. Something definite, besides clubs, is needed for young girls who are jobless, she believes. Miss Duncan expects to start such a school thl, :,ummer where guts would be taught cooking, sewing, de- signing, interior decorating, and how to meet people and how to en-' tertain. "If the girls are not working," she said in au interview here, "they may as well ,ins 'do:ng something worthwhile•' for themselves and the community" At first Vglunteer'workers will be. obtained' to teach the girls, if Miss Duncan is successful with her plans to establish the school, but Iater she hopes to interest the -government in what she believes will prove a worth while enterprise, and secure teach- ing aid. An appeal for furniture and equipment will be made. "Practical- ly any old things 47,14 do to begin with," she said.
