Chapters The principal character in the story is Kelly 1 enearrow,• Kelly is the son of Sir Miles Pen- carrow, a lawyer, whose father and mother emigrated to New Zealand and brought up a family who are now the parents of the young people with whom the story is concerned. Sir Miles Pencarrow wished Kelly to become a lawyer and to enter his father's practice. Iie11y insists on be- coming a farmer. He joins an uncle, Michael Pencarrow, who owns Duf- field farm. His uncle has a daughter, Ella, who falls in love with an Englishman nam- ed Gentry Ella's father offers Gentry a half-share in the Duffield Farm. This infuriates Kelly Pencarrow. He quarrels with Gentry, assaults him and leaves Duffield to work elsewhere. Kelly received a summons to the bed- side of his dying grandmother, the mother of Sir Miles Pencarrow. Arrived at the bedside, he is asked if he will apologise to Gentry and thus give her the assurance that the family a. hope of reconciliation. By the Will, Kelly inherits two thousand pounds, . and purchases some bush land at Tapuwal.

After the disaster, Kelly goes to work on rrPencarrow s farm adiesiend• Then The Pencarrows gathered for the funeral, and afterwards Miles read the will, which, as previously arrang- ed, made special provision for Kitty. But they all would share to some ex- tent in the ultimate disposal of the estate. Matthews, who had made his will some years before, while his interest was still keen, expressed the wish that the home farm at the Hutt might remain in the family, and he left it to Michael and Miles, whom he appointed trustees, to make what arrangements they deemed wisest when the time should come. To part with the old place was un- thinkable. That Grannie's garden should fall into a stranger's hands was almost sacrilege. When Miles had finished reading the will, and the expressed wish stood thiss ' t this land on which they , soil from which the family sprang, should not pass to strangers, a hush fell on the group. Miles already knew the contents of the will, as he had drawn it. It was no surprise to him, nor to Mich- ael. Looks were exchanged, but no word was spoken. Who was to carry on the Home Farm? Would Michael come back, and leave Gentry on Duffield? Impossible! Would Gentry take over this property, which was so much nearer town, and so should appeal to him and to Ella also? And would Kelly, once Gentry had left, go back to Duffield with Michael? Would the wheel turn full circle, and the little balls drop into the appoin- ted groove, as ordained by fate? Kelly previously had refused to work for his grandfather on the Hutt property. It was, he said, already so highly improved that it was just a. matter of running it under his grandfather's supervision. It lacked scope for his enterprise, and Matthew had passed the stage when lie would encourage or sanction experiments. But now he had gone. The place stood tenantless. He saw it in the bright light of this summer day as a thing desirable. Now he had more experi- ence, but no less enthusiasm; his recklessness had been tempered. If he could get a block of hill country, perhaps across the ragne, or over the Moonshine Valley, and work them to - "Poor ""'" o- 1 a: "r i%//""'" CHAPPED SKIN Eowaeoseuec N :.RANI SYRUP cemi The famous energy -producing sweet—nn easily digested food invaluable for infants, growing children, and enjoyed by the whole family. iL.kreduet o -t The Canada Stercla,Co., Liimited Issue No, 43----'34 84 gether! To live here, in this hospit- able old house with its wide doors and gateway; to enlarge and perfect Grannie's garden; to carry to com- pletion the things she had planned and he had dreamt of; to ," "Father, I would like to lease the Home Farm, and buy it later when I can " Quick, impulsive, Kelly had come back as surprisingly as he had gone away. Before Michael or Gentry or anyone else had time to think or de- cide, Kelly had claimed his 'privil- ege, And he knew that Grannie would be glad that It was he, who understood and shared so closely those secret delights of a garden, who was to be heir to the work of her hand. "I'm glad, my boy. I'm so glad you will carry on the old place. I'm sure it is what they would halve wish_ ed—your Grannie---" Miles stopped abruptly and blew his nose. Michael put a hand on his shoulder in the old affectionate way. "Couldn't be better," was all he said. But to Belly it conveyed much. It was Michael's phrase of complete approval; the high-water mark of his praise. The Gentrys offered no comment; it did not impinge upon their lives. Philips would never have consented to live on the Hutt Farm, despite its proximity to Wellington. It lack- ed the prestige of a sheep station. Genevieve's eye flashed with the fire of a sudden inspiration. "And I'll keep house for the' pro- digal," she announced, "Kelly, I'm engaged on the spot, and take over my duties with you." Her face lit with pleasure at the thought, "You mean it?" asked Kelly seri- ously. "Absolutely!" Delight aand relief at Kelly's de- cision were dampened by this sud- den complication. Miles frowned upon it from the first, and Norah, cancer. tain of what it might imply, urged more mature consideration, but did not oppose. But Genevieve had caught fire, and the idea of being mistress here, with no niggling restrictions and •an ab- sence of her father's irking interfer- once with even harmless pleasures, swept all objections aside. Kitty would go to town, and: gt„ nice house in Hobson treet was at last possible, and Robin would make his hone with her, Life had its com- pensations. The home on the Terrace seemed suddenly denuded, Only Meggie, a quiet girl of no particular charm or. character, and Peter, when he was home from college, remained with Miles and Norah. They became sud- denly aware of this new desolation. Desertion, Miles called It, It was February when iielly and Genevieve went to live at the Hutt. Kitty and Robin were established in their new home, and the first faint glow of triumph came when she wrote "Hobson Street" on the cards she sent out for her house-warming party. That this, so long deferred, had at last been accomplished, Kitty took for a sign that her other and greater ambitions might yet be realized. But. she must be patient, and everything must be subordinated to that fixed objective—Robin's brilliant career. A Miles and Norah sat alone over dinner the night after Kitty's house- warming, Norah referred to an almost forgotten subject, but one which had lingered dimly in her mind through- out all these changes. Meggie was not back from tennis, and Peter was at school, so she could speak freely. But these lonely meals were depressing, and Norah could feel the shadows darkening in her hus- band's mind, and a certain grim, re- lentless battle to justify his past was barring the way to a permanent con- tentment, "Do you think we ought to speak to Kitty .... I mean to mention about Robin and Genevieve?" There, it was out at last! "What, Is that nonsense still go- ing on?" "I really: don't know. With all Orange PeIaoe BIerird Fresh from the Gardens this upheaval and moving, perhaps " Her voice trailed away. "Now that Genevieve has some- thing else to interest her and they don't see each other so much, it might be better to leave things al- one," Mlles conceded. "Kitty seems so happy again, with Robin back, it would be unkind to worry her. And it may not be seri- ous. They are both young," "Yes, better leave it and see," and Miles dismissed an unpleasant sub- ject, The year that had come in, bring- ing ringing so many changes to their lives, settled into its stride with the wan- ing summer. Kelly Pencarrow, now .lord of his small estate, struck foots deep into a favorable soil. His wanderings over, his heart at peace, he seemed to stretch himself, mine and body. Always vigorous and spurred by the genial Inspiration of Genevieve, the easy folds of habit never enveloped him, But he knew in these pleas. ant, peaceful years a return of con- tentment, and, released from the jar. ring edge of family friction, he pros- pered and found vent for his ambi- tion. Genevieve, having assumed this responsibility, showed the qualities out of which success Is forged. It was her pride that once again the Home Farm was the central point of family life, as in Grannie's day, and her spirit seemed to hover . unseen over the home she had long loved, and to direct their action. "Do you think Grannie would like it this way?" (To Be Continued.) The King Likes to Cook London.—An amusing story of King George is told by Philip Inman, man- aging governor of Charing Cross Hospital, in. his book, "Oil and Wine," just published, The King, he writes, was passing along • the corridor to one of the wards when he stopped before the door of the ward kitchen. "May I go inside?" the Ring asked. The door was opened and revealed a nurse bending down before a gas oven. The King took in everything at a glance and then said: "I'm very interested in kitchens. I sometimes do a little cooking myself—that is, when I'ni allowed." "I have no patience with people who decry the youth of today as being decadent."—Evangeline Booth.

In increasing numbers women of the island are shouldering their way competently into the crafts and pro- fessions, Two decades ago women physicians were rare. Today they form a large block in the Irish medi- cal profession. Women vote, and do so in a vigor- ously independent manner. Fem- inists deplore the fact that there are only three of their sex in the Free State Dail Eireann. But they are sure that number will increase. Many women won political offices in recent elections for local councils. Miss Louie Bennett, Irish Labor leader, believes Ireland's abnormally low marriage rate is an influence forcing women into professions. "Irishmen," she said a bit ruefully, "can't make up their minds to marry! until they are around 40, and the wo men don't wait for them idly. They get jobs."

The idea originated with a Canadian industrial group. Shown at the Canadian National Exhibition, the mural was an outtstancling success and requests have been poured in steadily for loan exhibits in- cluding invitations to place it on view in New York and tandem as a symbol of this country's present-day progress.
