THIRTEENTH INSTALMENT
'.. SYNOPSIS
When the wealthy foster par-
ents of MaaJeele Wetherill both
die she finds a letter telling that
she Jute a twin sister, that she
wee adopted when her own par-
emits couldn't afford to support
both of them and that bar real
name is Dorothy Gay. Alone in
the 'world, but with a fortune of
her own, she considers looking up
her ownfamily whom she has nev-
er seen. A neighbor, Evan Bow-
er, tries to argue :hen' out of it and
tells her he loves her and asks
her to marry him. She promises
to think it over but decides first
to see her family. She goes to
their address, finds that they are
destitute at4d gradually ersuades
them to accept things they need.
When the doctor calls to see her
mother she notices that he seems
particularly interested in ber sis-
ter. . Marjorie goes 'to church. in
Brentwood; where her family used
to live, and becomes very much
interested. in the young, minister
there, with whom she later has
Inmch in the city. While at Brent-
- she sees the home her fam-
ily ,formdersy owned, buys it back
for theme, and gives the deed, to it
to her'father on Christmas morn-
ing. The whole family i, eery
joyful. Evan; Brower finally finds
Marjorie, she has lunch with him,
refuses to dmerry him and clearly'
shows that she is interested in
the minister and doesn't approve
of Evan's views on religion..
"Father, I don't mind," said Mar-
jorie. "There isn't a soul among my
gold friends that I would actually
break my heart about if I didn't see
them any more ever-"
There was a choking in her voice
and her father reachedout his hand
as she sat on a low footstool by her
mother's side and laid it on her head
tenderly.
"We want' you to be truly happy,
and to heave no regrets if you should
decide to come and live with us. What
we want is for you to go back to Chi-
cago for a time and think the whole
matter over. WilI yon do that?"
Marjorie was still a long time and
then she looked up sadly;
"Yes, YIl do it if you will do the
same thing. If you will honestly talk
it all over with the other children,
and decide whether you want me or
not."
Her father looked at her mother and
they smiled tenderly over her bowed
head.
"All right!" said her father, "we'll
agree if you will:'
Marjorie's face brightened_
"Well, then I'd better get ft over as
quickly as possible. I've got to go
back of course and see to things. I
came away without closing up •or
packing or anything. But I did want
to, get the Brentwood ^house cleaned
and you moved into it. I would hate
to miss that."
The father's face softened and then
grew reserved.
"Well, that's another thing, again,
dear. We .don't want to do anything
about that, Mother and I, until this
other matter is settled."
The next morning after the break-
fast work was done Marjorie wrote to
the sen'ants. She would be at home
two days after New Year's. Then she
had a talk with Betty.
"You and I should go sirappirxg,"she
said. "I want to watch you buy some
pretty things for yourself, and Wave
are things the children ought to have."
Betty, nothing loathe, consented.
So they went shopping.
They .bad a olvely time and bought
a lot of festinating things. Betty said
it was Christmas an ever again.
She looked very pretty as she wait-
ed for Marjorie who had gone to an-
other part of the store.
Just then a Long, lank, sallow youth
with a dare -devil in his eye, and a
loose, )handsome mouth, brought up
standing before Betty and gave her a
long eternizing stare.
"Well, some baby -doll!" he ex-
claimed. "Am I seeing aright? is
see her after she moved. She had nev T "Dona tlhey? I wonder why so many
er been quite sure that Ted had not
had something to do with that.•
But now here be was and taking !a
her changed appearance!
She lifted her chin proudly and
smiled, and he let his eyes linger on
her pretty face with that intimate
glance that all the girl's usually fell
for, A kind of triumph filled Betty's
heart. She hadn't Lost her power ov-
er him yet.
"Well, beautiful, you're lovelier than
ever. Where did you get the glad
rags? Struck oil or anything?" His
eyes roved boldly ovr her garments
as: if he had a right.
"How about a date, Baby?" he ask-
ed. "Got anything doing tonight or
tomorrow night? How'd you like to
do the round witch. me? Little supper,
dance, and go the rounds of the night
clubs? Like to show you something
real."
Betty ftustbed proudly and her eyes
sparkled. Ellery had never asked her
oust before.
"Thanks, that's kind of you," she
answered trying to feign an indiffer-
ence she did not feel. It was, going to
her head to have attention. Two
young men in eine week, even if one
had taken her to church!
Of the two dates she preferred the
night clubs. •
Of course the Dootols was much
(higher class Shan Eliery, who was
only a subordinate with a very small
salary, but she had always secretly
yearned to see a real night club and
she had heard Eliery boast of his in-
tiimiate acquaintance with them. "I
don't just know what free time I shall
!have the next few days," she said cas-
ually. "My twin sister is visiting us.
I wouldn't feel like leaving her."
"Twin sinter!" said the young man
deeply impressed'. "Lead mels to her!
Is she as pretty as you are, Baby?"
"People say we are alike," said Bet-
ty with a toss of her head.
"All right, bring her along," said
the Locbidnvar graciously, "Be delight-
ed to entertain you both. Just phone
toe at the office and name the night
and I'll be ready to go."
"Well, I'll talk to my sister," said
Betty, flattened as she could be. Poor
Betty had been batter that she could
not have nice things and go out like
other girls.
Marjorie was longer being waited
on than she had expected, and young
Ellery's lunch hour was over -past, so
the left a minute or two before Mar-
jorie arrived.
"You just missed meeting an old
friend of mine," said Betty.
"Orin, I'.m sorry. Who was it?"
"Oh, just a fellow that 'worked in
the same office with me on my last
job. Maybe you wouldn't have thought
much of him, but he's awfully good-
looking,- Hie's askedus to go out with
him some evening this week. I told
him you were here and he's crazy to
meet you. Would you like to go? His
name's Ellery Aiken."
Marjorie had a sudden memory of
Ted saying "he's a poor sap from the
office where see used to work." Could
this be tike same one?
"Why; that's very kind of him," she
faltered. What should she do?
"Where is he going to take us?"
"Why, he'll take us somewlhere to
supper and then the round of a the
night clubs," said Betty entbusiasti-
ca.11y.
"Night clubs!" said Marjorie in a
dismay she could not keep out of her
vcice. "Oh, my dear! Do you go to
night clubs?"
"I've never been, but I've always
been crazy to see one. Why? Don't
you like them?" •Sthe,almost glared at
Marjorie. Was Marjorie going to
highfiat her now when she had been
so preased that she lead a social ad-
vantage to offer her?
"I've never been to a night club of
course, but I don't think I would care
to go," she said gently.
"But if -you've never been how do
you know you don't like them?"
"Why, I shouldn't care to go among
people who are drinking," said Mar-
jorie with a troubled look at her pret-
ty sister. -
"Drinking! Why, for pity's sake, you
wouldn't have to drink if you didn't
want to, would you? And anyway,
everybody drinks in society today. It

"For pity's sake, and I've been en-

to 'see" life."
"But I don't believe th•at'e life,
Betty," said Marjorie thoughtfully.
"The people I've seen who go in for
that sort of thing look to me mere
as if they'd been seeing death than
life. It always fine me fall of borror
to see people under the influence of
liquor."
"Oh, I don't mean really drank,"

"Oh, you dont see so many drunk!

"It snakes petople utterly, silly," said
Marjorie, "and entirely disgusting.
I've seen girls coming borne from par-
ties, soraetikes in the public railroad

"Then you won't go?" said Betty
vexedly.
"No, Betty, I couldn't. I wouldn't
feel at home in a night Club."
"I didht't know- you were strait-
laced."
"Is, ttmt strait -1 oed? I thought it
was only a kind of refinement. Just

"Well, I'm sure most young people
do those things today. All except fa-
natical people. Religious cranks, you

"1 guess a good Many do," said
M4ar3orie, 'Ibut i don't like such things,
I can't help it."
"Oh, heavems! You sound just far
all the world like Ted!" said Betty
almost angrily. "Here I thought I
had something nice, too show you a
good time, and you've spoiled it all,"
"I'm eorry, Betty, • but I couldn't
help it. I couldn't go to places like
that. I just wouldn't belong. I would-
n't feel it was the right tbing."
Betty sulked) almost all the way

ing out the other side of the taxi. At
last as they were nearing dome Mar-
jorie said sadly:
"Well, maw I suppose you won't
want me to come back and live with
you, since you've found out I. don't
agree with you on the way to have a
good tine."
"Oh, Forget it!" said Betty unhap-
pily.
That night before they went to
sleep she' had the grace to apologize
to Marjorie for being disagreeable af-
ter Marjorie had got her. so many
Ioveiy things. '
But Marjorie lay wakeful through
several hours., and in her heart began
to pray for her sister, the first prayer
she lead ever made for anybody else.
How shet would like to talk it over
with- Gideon Reaver!
And then she fell asleep and dream-
ed that it was Gideon. Reayer Nebo
had sat across from her at the hotel
table and handed her the blue dia-
mond and watched her while she op-
ened the box. • Even in her dream a
Oha-ill of joy went through ber heart.
When she awoke in the morning the
first part of the dream was vivid, and
the t'hriil in het heartwas there when-
ever the thought of it, but it was
Gideon Reaver's eines wlh'o looked in-
to fliers above t'be blue diamond, end
not Evan Brower's eyes; and that
troubled her. She must not allow her
thoughts to wander off to absurd
thirfige like that.
Ars if Gideon Beaver had any spec-
ial interest in +her, a stranger;' to of-
fer her diamonds, and touch her
hands with that strange wonderful
firm)),
But Betty shad slipped down to the
store on some pretext a little after
nine that morning and telephoned
Ellery Aiken in the office. She told
him that her sister could not come
and therefore she would not be able
to. But she had' finally let him per-
suade her that she could come for just
a Iittle while.
She came back, to the house with a
shamefaced 'look, and worked madly
all day doing little extras for evei•y-
body, to make up trbr what site meant
to do that evening.
After the dishes were done that
night she hurried upstairs and came
down in the pretty velvet drese that
Marjorie had bought hoer.
Marjorie Looked up surprised.
"flow lovely you look, dear? Are
you going out?"
"Why, yes," said Betty apologeti-
cally, "I have to, just a little while."
Marjorie looked after her in disdmra.y,
her (heart sinking, Was she really
go'i'ng out with that young Aiken?
Going td night clubs after all? But-
e -to had came for her? The doorbell
hadn't rung.
Marjonie slipped into the dark par-
lor and looked out tihe window. A
shabby little runabout was -just pull-
ing away from the door. Betty must
have been watching for him out. the
window and gone down at once.
Meantime Betty was discovering
that Ell'edry Mkeru oras cross at' her for
not bringing her sister. He wanted
'to see her. Ellery was great for new
giris. Also he sometimes got com-
missions from mien he knew for bring-
ing new attractive gir•is for the even-
ing, and his exchequer was Low just
now.

ed at the Advisory Agricultural Com-
mittee meeting held in Clinton • on

vance of planting; a mixture of hard-
woods and conifers to be planted at
a cost from $6 to $8 per acre, the
planting to be done by degrees, name-
ly, fdur township blocks for four con-
secutive years to cover the county.
The committee also mentioned, that
supervision was necessary to prevent
grass. fires, Christmas tree stealing
and trespassing, and suggested' that
a local township coptmittee be ap-
pointed to look after the supervision
in each township (with a nearby far-
mer acting under instruction from the
Local committee as supervisor of the
reforestation block). Mr. Zavitz en-
dorsed the above recommendations.

tario on Conservation and Reforesta-
tion was attended by Mr, J. D. Thom

Progress report of reforestation in
Huron County so far in 1939:
1. School Section -Widespread en-
terest in each school section securing
an acre of land to reforest for dem-
onstrational and educational purpos-
es was evident during the spring. The
county's offer of paying 50% of the
purchase price was received with fa-
vor. The majority of townshtpe also
made an offer of paying 25% of the
purchase price. Many sehool sections
are considering the above scheme at
the present time. ldlo)wever, Huliett
Township took the lead in getting this
work started in 1939. S. S. No. 3,
Hallett, commonly known as the Kin -
burn school, was a good example of
community co-operation. Mr. Howard
Armstrong donated the Iand free of
cost, and Mr. W. L. Whyte fenced the
property and put on a gate free of
cost. Me school children planted the
trees and the ratepayers of the school
section are whole heartedly behind
the venture, Many • school sections
will be planting trees next spring un-
der the above scheme,
2. School Children. -Under the lead-
ership of the School Inspectors,
Messrs, E. C. Beacom, J. H. Kinkead
anti J. M. Game. all rural school chil-
dren, were given the opportunity of
securing five trees for either wind-
break or woodlot planting, to com-
memorate the visit of the Queen and
King to Canada in 1939. The majority
of children responded to the above
proposition, and through the courtesy
of the Good Roads Commission and
tho County Engineer, trucks were
sent to St. Williams in early May to
pick up the trees ordered and to dis-
tribute them to a central point in
each township.

ed an increased interest in windbreak
and wodolot planting by farmers and
other organizations throughout Huron

on County' farmers on the question of
having the county enter the Federal
Government T. B. Restricted Area

87.6 per cent. in favor of the plan:.
And whereas She trend of opinion
amongst the farmers is for the test-
ing to be commenced as speedily as

eipaiity in Huron the serious consid-
eration of purchasing a power spray-
er for the efficient application of

ical weed killer recently patented by
