"You were quite right. 1 would
have noticed it myself, only my mind
is occupied with other things, But
now 1 see it plainly, and it's got to
be stopped. Cousins! It's disgrace-
ful."
"I think we ought to tell Kitty.
I wonder if she has noticed anything.
Mind you, it'S only since the fire.
They were just like brother and sis-
ter before. But when I saw Robin
put his arms round her and kiss her,
and saw their faces—"
"Stop! It's disgusting. I don't want
to hear it all over again. But it's got
to be ended here and now," anil
Miles thumped the table and spilt the
milk,
Norah sighed and mopped it up.
"Robin had better go back to his
mother. It's not too far to the Hutt,
and there is a good train service now.
He can make the change at Cbrist-
mas, and that's only a couple of
weeks off. And when the winter
comes—well, we will see."
"Yes, I suppose that's best," Norab
agreed, but she was sorry to lose Ro-
bin, "We can't forbid them to see
each other. It might start a scandal,
and we don't want any talk."
Dragging tbe subjest into the open
might give it just the impetus tJaey
dread, and make it subject for public
comment.
"Have you heard, Genevieve Pen-
carrow and her cousin Robin? Al-,
ways together ...... the family are ,
terribly upset ...,.. and Mrs. Herrick
is so ambitious for Robin wants
him to marry an English girl, I be-
lieve. No, I don't know how far
it's gone, yet, but her father is
furious about it. 2/
In imagination Norah could hear it
all.
When the family sat down to Sun-
day dinner at one o'clock Miles had
recovered his composure.
''Bless us, 0 Lord, and these Thy
gifts which we are about to receive—
Where's Genevieve?" he demanded
suddenly, breaking off in the middle
of Grace,
"She and Robin went out to Grand-
father's," said Maggie. •
Now dinner was going to be spoilt,
thought Noreen and it was such a
tender roast.
"But she can't. I forbade her to go,"
tbuudered Miles.
"She did. I saw them free -wheel-
ing down the hill."
"Do you permit your daughter to
defy me like this?"
They were always Norah's children
when they were disobedient.
"Well, dear, If you couldn't stop
her, how could ? I didn't know she
'tad gone. I thought she was in her
room."
Silence fell while Miles cut the
rich brown roast of beef into rags
and tatters and slapped it on to the
plates, Today he took no delight in
his carving.,
"Pass the peas, please."
"Where's the gravy, Mother?"
Subdued voices repeated the ac-
customed phrases.
Suddenly Allies snatched the table
napkin from his knee and flung it on
the table, and, pushing his plate from
him, got up,
"It's intolerable," he said,
"Miles, dear, have your dinner."
"I don't want any dinner. I can't
eat. It would choke me."
"It's such a tender roast, and you
specially asked for beef today."
"I asked for beef? I ask for obedi-
ence, that is what I ask for—obedi-
ence and respect in my own aouse,
To be flaunted and defied by a chit
rif a girl! I'll see who is master here.
I'll I'll........"
The door banged.
"Ellen! Ellen, take your master's
dinner into his study and a glass of
beer. It's very hot and he has a
headache. Leave the tray there,
even if he tells you to take it away,
He may eat a bit when he is alone
and it's quiet!'
And he did, quite a big bit.
At tea time Norah tapped gently

to your dinner; you must be starving
after that long ride,"
Afterwards they sat under ,the
weeping ash in it corner of Granniedi
garden. It was still Grannie's gar-
den, for her spirit seemed to linger
among the flowers she loved and they
always spoke of them as Grannie'
roses,
Genevieve sat on a low garden
chair, her hands locked behind , her
head, her golden -brown hair catch-
ing, the flickering lights that fell like
spangles through the gently rustling
leav es.
Robin lay full length on the grass,
his head resting on his arm, his
face turned towards Genevieve. Kitty
was with her father. After dinner he
seemed restless and in pain.
The drowsy hum of bees as they
buzzed among the flowers, the gentle
murmur of leaves swayed by an er-
ratic breeze, the golden warmth of
the December sun, nearing midsum-
mer beat, washed over them like a
senuous tide,
Genevieve had drawn from the
morning's encounter with her father
a curious defensive strength, She
had felt depressed at first. After the
scene with her father, resentment
clouded everything. But the exertion
of cycling out to the Hutt, with its
attendant weariness, then dinner, and
now the luxurious restfulness of the
summer day had restored the balance
and given stimulus to her mind. She
no longer felt rebellious, Her tired
muscles relaxed, and with this sense
of relaxation came a surge of new
vigor. An abounding vitality pulsed
through her and fired her imagination.
(To Be Continued.)
It was a long ride to the Hutt, but
despite the hampering effect of her
long skirt and large hat, Genevieve
managed it- without fatigue.
When they arrived, after heveral
halts by the way, they were just in
time for dinner.
"How is your father?" Kitty asked
as she kissed Genevieve.
"Scotty!"
Kitty's face assumed a becoming
expression, slightly shocked.
"You mean he is a little irritable.
Dyspepsia is very trying."
"It's not dyspepsia, Aunt Kitty; it's
temper that upsets him,"
"But surely you must know, dear.,
that it is digestive trouble that makes
him short-tempered? What was the
trouble today?"
"Simely that I was coming out
here",
"But why?"
"That's what I asked, and he would
not tell me. It's just a sudden fad,"
"He let you come in the end,
though," said Kitty, still in defence
of parental authority.
"Indeed he did not. I just came,
Oh yes, there will be a gorgeous row
when I get home, but if you let a row
deter you in our house you Would
never do anything."
"That is not quite fair," Kitfy pro-
tested.
Genevieve laughed. "Perhaps it's a
wee bit exaggerated. All I want is to
be treated as an adult person of rea-
sonable intelligence. If Father said,
'I don't want you to go to the Hutt
today because I need you at home';
or 'I object to Sunday cycling,' or
whatever he does object to, I would
know where 1 was."
"He couldn't have stated it better
himself," said Robin, and gave her
a pat on the back, "You're a regu-
lar bush lawyer."
They talked to their grandfather
for a few minutes and then dinner
was served.
"You never forget me, Genevieve,"
the old man said as he held her hand

Deplored by Dr. Butler as
Lacking in Excellence
g•••••••••••••••.
New York—Deploring the lack oi

phases of modern life, especially in
manners and personal conduct aud
literature, Dr. Nicholas Murray
Butler called upon the students and
faculty of Columbia University to
devote their efforts to a "search for
excellence."
Dr. Butler's address marked
exercises, held in celebration
Columbia's 181st year.
"When the spiritual nature of man
asserts itself," said Dr. Butler, "the
ultimate object of his observation and
reflection, of his searching, will al-
ways and everywhere be excellence.
It was a maxim of Publius Syrus
that 'it takes a long time to bring
excellence to maturity.' Excellence
will not be achieved in a day or will
it be fully understood and appreciat-
ed on the instant. Time is necessary,
as is that contemplation which alone
leads to full understanding.

"In respect to manners and per-
sonal conduct, present-day habits as
manifested in every sort of public
place and personal relationship are

wonders why it is that youth can

no apparent appreciation of the dif-
