Young Kelly Piincarrow finally settles down on the $Pencarrow .farm, witb Genevieve his.;..90usin as housekeeper who is in Iov.a with her cousin Robin Herrick, Uoustn Neil Macdonald be- comes engaged• to Erena Toicey-Goff. Peter Pencarrow is showing interest 2n Maisie lute, a typist.. "Oh, Maislei. Who sent you those?" f --enviously. "Lady Pencarrow!" she said, read- ing the card. "Do you know: her?"—in surprise. "Oh, yes"—casually, "I've been there to dances," Looks were exchanged and a cer- tain iciness of manner thawed. After all, she was a success as Turn -Yum, p- and now, if the Pencarrows took her up, it might be as well to be friendly.. You never know—" "Let's ask Maisie Kite out on Sun- day, Kelly," said Genevieve as they drove home after the opera. "Yes, do. She is awfulIy 'amusing; doesn't ease what she says. Is Father =fee emeae--h a -re -irate-- . Peter brought Maisie out to the Home Farm on Sunday escorting her with triumphal air as though he shar- ed equally in her great success. The child who had put lace frills on the shrunken sleeves of her hand-me- down dress, and borrowed her moth- er's kid gloves had now tasted . the 'wine of applause. She had triumphed over circumstances, beaten down op- position, ignored snubs and slights, and fought her way to the front rank in the limited field open to her. On all sides her performance was ac- claimed. She had natural gifts which were ripe for development, andthe struggle had stiffened her. Her sense of comedy kept her free from pre- tence. She did not gloss over her early years, but looked back with pity, not only for the child she had been, but more so for her mother and father, who were doomed and could never ea - cape. Even as a child she had enjoyed the temporary liberation of her day- eleeam,s, They had none- Maisie became a regular visitor at the Hutt. Robin had a four -seater car so even when his mother came he had room for Maisie and Peter. Sometimes the Sunday party includ- ed Neil and Erena. They had been married in Gisborne, only the Mac- donalds going up for the ceremony. The Rev. Hector had come from Dun- edin to assist the local clergyman, but it was a quiet affair. Hector was almost an alien among the Pencarrows, for he found them lacldng in seriousness, and treating life with a levity that eould not be justified, so he was .glad to return to Dunedin and his parish. In the summer the party was lar- ger, It began earlier and lasted lon- ger, Some came for dinner, others for tea. Telly had a grass tnnis court laid down and that was an added at- tiraction, After a hard set they might go fol a swim in the Hutt river. It was all so frienclly 'and informal, and a few extra people made no difference Genevieve saw there was „plenty of food, and tea was. brewed. at intervals. If by chancethe.

For school and mornng wear, 001 - ors are often dark, especially navy, but tiny tots in Paris wear a great many pale pastels, pink, blue, creamy beige, for the afternoon, and in such cases hat and coat almost invariably match. The beret, classic basque style, or knitted or of felt in slightly less clas- sic -version, is. only worn by the old- er lder children, from,eight or nine up, and even among these is not predom- inate over the brimmed shapes, and is confined mostly "to sports cos- tumes.

There was, in fact, no outward change or manifesta- tion, anifeststion, and even Ke11y was not aware of the subtle movements and their consequences; In mid -winter Potty Barker came over for a holiday and stayed at Jhe Hutt, Over a•pipe and a beer he aiird:, Kelly talked of.

Here, may be seen some bonnet cloches, but to less ex- tent than in Paris. Sailor berets, copied closely from 'the British sailor's headgear, are also a 'good deal worn by little Britishers but only in navy with reefer coats. Basqueand fabric berets are, as in Paris, only seen on 10-yearaolds and up, and usually with sports clothes, The fitted coat worn by little girls en both Paris and London, is accom- panied ccompanied by the styles of hats men- tioned other than the beret. These, and postillions and other little coats fitted at the. top, are a great deal worn by children up to 7 or 8. Above that age, little girls dress ,in loose, belted coatis, with berets, but there fitted and formal style, with a good many. primmed Brats, either of felt or fabric, being worn. School or Jobs "The trouble with youth," a man who knows boys recently commented, 9s its youthfulness." If the aphor- ism needs explanation, he added, let it be said that a prime characteristic ''of youth is an urge for activity. If opportunity for its expression is not given through schools, and jobs are unavailable, is it to be wondered that unadjusted boys and girls experi- ment in fields that lead to conflict with law and order? The dangerous age for a youth is the period when he is reaching ado- lescence and early maturity. Statis- tics prove this, Iii 'England & Wales forty-two per ' cent, of all persons found guilty of indictable' crimes last year were under twenty-one. In the United States,,aceerding to Depart ment of Justice 'reoits,' two-thirds of all arrests for crime involve per- sons between fifteen and twenty-four and those 19 years old lead any other age group. No grand social scheme can solve the problem of unadjusted youth at one swoop Boys and girls like their elders, are not cut to one pattern.

Having first administer- ed ether to the rodents • to make them unconscious, they dropped a virus containing influenza germs in- to their nostrils; the mice sniffed it up and contracted -'the disease. Fur- ther `experiments in passing the in- fluenze from mouse to mouse proved that the infection was ' contagious and not merely a chance result. The doctors also succeeded in preparing. an antiserum which rendered other mice, irnrnune from the• infection. Similar experiments have previ- ously' been conducted upon ferrets, but as mice are less expensive and more easily handled this new dis- covery to have far-reaching results. it is hoped that it will eventually lead` to the development of a suc- cessful anti -influenza 'serum for hu- man beings.

CLAIR (Graphologist) All Rights ;Reserved. (Editor's Note: This week's article shows Jest how graphology don help In solving personal problems. There is a message of hope In It for you, if you are worrying over some personal dif. ficulty. If It Is merely a character de- lineation that you would like, you will find it of immense value. See the Invitation In the following article. .. A letter I received a few days ago from a young lady living in Toronto has given me a good deal of pleasure, and, because it will show just how graphology can be extremely helpful in solving personale problems, I am reproducing it, in part, this week. It Is as follows. • "Dear Mr.St. Clair: I was reading your column in which, you advised a certain Toronto girl concerning her fiance. It was the first time I had ever read your column, and, as I read of this other girl's problem, I had the queerest feelig--for I might halve been that "other girl." Hav- ing read it, I decided right there and then never to see my own boy friend again. Knowing where my duty lay, this problem had been worrying me for a long time, but nothing could have driven it home so much and have made me see so clearly that I must end this friendship, for my own good as well as his as your article did As I write" this, I feel so grate- ful to you, Mr. St. Clair, and I want to truly thank you from the bottom of my heart. But what kind of a person must I be? Before I met this boy, I thought I knew myself. It's fun- ny, isn't it, how little we really know of ourselves?" This young lady, agars: from prov ing the personal value of graphology made another point when she said' "It's funny how little we really know of ourselves," Noe'very long ago, a gentleman living in Winnipeg wrote to me asking me to analyse his oym "i Writ 8.11 d""iliii�l,^af"�` i�"� 'tx w3re • g :`He that the domestic relations were ra- ther strained and both his wife and. himself were very unhappy as a re- sult. He .added that he believed that his wife was mainly at fault, and he though that if I were to send the an- s '. alysis of hes' character, be could then show it to her, and thus bring home a realisation of what she was doing to wreck the marriage, Well, I analysed both writings but instead of having to tell him that his wife MIS to blame, I had to suggest that he h%nself was more the guilty party, He was inclined to be domin- eering; would brook absolutely no interference, and could not tolerate other people's views if they were at variance with his own. In addition to this, be had quite a temper. I could well visualise the scenes in that home when he was laying down the law, and could easily understand the lack of harmony. The sequel came some time later, when I received another letter from shim, to which his wife added a post- script. ostscript. He' had been so shocked by my delineation of his character, that he was beginning to tone it do - n ciomewhat, and his wife thanked me for creating a condition which, she believed, would lead to a more har- monious home life, These instances will show how graphology, by dissecting character, can help a good deal with the prob- lems that worry so many people. c YOU any personal problem that is causing you a lot of concern and worry?
