THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time.... From very early Friday
morning, April 7, perhaps as early
as 1 a.m., to 3 p.m, the same after-
noon, when Christ expired. •
Place --:All these events took
place in or immediately adjacent
to Jerusalem: the first trial was
in ,.he palace of the high priest,
where also the denial of Peter
occurred; the trial before Pilate
took place in the palace of the
governor; whereas the crucifixion
itself occurred at a plate called
Golgotha, which must have been
outside the city wall.
Pilate made many attempts to
escape from the crime of con-
demning Christ, but eventually al-
lowed the mob choice to rule.
On Calvary
Before Christ was crucified on
Calvary, he was mistreated by Ro-
man soldiers, Matt. 27: 33, And
*hen they were come unto a
place called Golgotha, that is to
say, The place of a skull, 34, They
gave him wine to drink mingled
with gall; and when he had tast-
ed it, he would not drink. The bit-
ter gall had a narcotic and stupe-
fying effect, deadening the sense
of pain. Jesus desired to drink to
the full "the cup" from his Fath-
er's hands. 35. And when they
had crucified him, they parted his
garments among them, casting
lots; 36. and they sat and watch-
ed him there. The victim died a
slow, agonizing death. His garm-
ents were the perquisites of the
crucifiers, The soldiers, keeping
up the sport, divided out the var-
ious articles by casting Iots --- a
grim spectacle. .

The laugh of the week in the
radio -world came from an NBC
station the other Saturday after
friend Adolf Hitler had just fin-
ished one of his noisy harangues.
Der Fuehrer had been louder and
•.more vulgar than usual ... but
he unexpectedly finished two min-
utes ahead of schedule, and the
station in question had to put on
a record for a fill. The operator
grabbed the first record at hand
and slapped it on - and suddenly
the strains of "You Grow Sweet-
er as the Years Rolls By," follow-
ed the Hitler barrage. Now they
call it Hitler's theme song!

days, save thyself: if thou art the
Son of God, come down from the
cross, 41. In like manner also the
chief priests mocking him, with
the scribes and elders, said, 42. He
saved others; himself he cannot
save, He is the King of Israel; let
him now come down from the
cross, and we will believe on him.
43. He trusteth on God; let him
deliver him now, if he desireth
him: for he said, I am the Son of
God. 44. And the robbers also
that were crucified with him cast
upon him the same reproach, Per-
haps this is Satan's last tempta-
tion of Christ; but no evidence
would have convinced the hearts
of these railers, hardened in their
unbelief.
At The. Ninth Hour
45. Now from the sixth hour
there was darkness over all the
land until the ninth hour. Tho
dense darkness. could not have
been an eclipse_ of the sun. Rather
it preceded the earthquake which
came very shortly. 46. And about
the ninth hour Jesus cried with a
loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama
sabachthani? that is, My God, my
God, why hast thou forsake •me?
There were seven short sentences
uttered at different tithes by the
Lord as he hung upon the cross,
generally known as the seven
words from the cross, Matthew
mentions only, one of them, the
fourth.. This is one of the pro-
foundest, most mysterious passag-
es in all of the New Testament;
and no exposition of it can ever
be thought to be complete and fin-
al. It was the cry of a soul at the
uttermost of sin, and the utter-
most of sorrow, and a soul in the
presence of mystery.
47. And some of them that
stood there, when they heard it,
said, this man called' Elijah, 48,
And straightway one of them ran,
and took a sponge, and filled it,
with vinegar, and put it on a reed,
and gave him to drink. 40. And
the rest said, Let he; let us see
whether Elijah cornsth to save
him. The grand figure which Eli-
jah made in history, and the prorn-
ise of his coming in Mal, 4: 5,
caused him to stand out in the
Jewish mind as the greatest of the
prophets. 50. And Jesus cried
again with a loud voice, and yield.
ed up his spirit.

80 Per Cent Deficient in Phos-

Potash York County Survey
Shows -664 Farms Tested
York County Agricultural com-
mittee has just disclosed' that the
recently conducted soil survey of
664 farms • throughout the _county
had uncovered a defic:ency in
phosphates in 80 per. cent of theta
and potash in 50 per cent.
Council adopted a resolution to
continue the survey in 1040 and
commended Ontario Agricultural
College surveyors for the excellent
work accomplished. Frons the 664
farms' some 2,700 samples were
taken and examined at: the college.
WILL REPLENISH LIME
"Interim reports showed that
most of the samples contained suf-
ficient lune," declared Reeve W.
H. Pugsley of Sutton "while 80
per cent showed a deficiency of
phosphates. This is to, be expected
in a milk producing area."
Plans Were discussed $o replen-
ish the lands with phosphates and
potash, the 'vork to commence
within the very near future.
Council also gave approval to
a continuance of the potato pro-
gramme begun in 1939. The plan
is to provide better potato crops
for York County to compete with
the maritime potato crop.
Gardening 11.1
MOST FOR MONEY
Every foot of space must count
in the small vegetable plot, Rows
are narrow, and as one vegetable
is used another takes its place.
Only the most productive things
are planted, Iike beans, radish,
lettuce and spinach, and also those
which have a flavor all their own
when taken from the garden at
the door. In this category will be -
peas and corn, never as sweet'and
fresh as when picked, cooked and
eaten within an hour,
Small vegetables like lettuce and
radish require rows only 12 inch-
es apart, Beets, beans, carrots,
peas. and spinach, need at least 16
inches between, while potatoes,
corn and staked tomatoes must
have a couple of feet to thirty
inches. Space may be saved with
the latter tYpe• if something quick -
maturing such as lettuce and spin-
ach are planted in between, The
bigger things will not need the
full room at first, and by the
time they do the early crops will
be out of the way. Tender vege-
tables are those which are grown
quickly, therefore the experts
force theirs along with chemical
fertilizer, cultivation and, if pos-
sible, water.
HANDLE WITH CARE
Nursery stock, which is the
technical name for shrubbery,
fruit trees, roses and vines should
be secured from a reputable
source and one that is familiar
with and caters to Canadian con-
ditions, Good stock is pliable,
green and shows plenty of' live
buds. Roots are moist and well
wrapped to exclude the air.
• Nursery stock should be planted
as soon as the soil is fitto work
and if purchased before this time
or .if inconvenient to plant, roots
should be temporarily covered
with moist earth or plants should
be stored in a cool, dark cella'
and roots kept moist. •

WHAT CANADA SAYS ABOUT OUR
CANDIDATE
"I ran into Mr. Deaehman's apceoh in going over Hansard and I
have read it twice since. 1n tact, I have usodi a good part of it in my
Magazine,
I want to say that it was one of the finest addresses on agriculture
that 1 have ever read or heard and I propose to make very considerable
use of it in my work, strictly uon-partisan and strictly farmer move-
,
ment."
Chas. A. Hayden, Editor "Country Life in B.C."
"1 would appreciate very much your giving me the information as
to how you arrived at your figures on farm income. I would be glad to
use it in our brief to the Royal Commission on transportat'on. Having
alt eady had it presented, to the Rouse of Commons would add consider-
able weight." II. H. Hannam, United Farmers of Ontario.
"\\'e do not always agree with Mr. Denchmat1 brat in his argument
on the sales tax he made out a strong case and the government woa'.d
do well to give it special consideration."
Editorial, The Gazette, -Montreal,
"R. J. Deachtnan, member for North Huron is
one of 'Canada's outstanding authorities on econom-
ics, He is an ardent low tariff advocate who has
read widely on all questions of vital interest in the
days which lift ahead. IMr. Deachman 'has been one
of the most efficient members of the Bankiug and
Commerce Committee of the Mouse of Commons
where upstart economiets delight to air their ere
worlrable monetary theories and where the restrain-
ing hand of knowledge skilfully and conservatively
handled is invalual>7e,"
Editorial. Chesley Enterprise.
"Of all the speeches delivered in Parliament
on the neutrality resolution of Mr. Woodssvorth, and
the companion resolution of Mr, Douglas to take the
profit out of making munitions, there was, 'n our op-
inion, more sound conemon sense packed into the ad-
dress of Mr. R. J. Deachman, member for Huron
North, than in all others combined."
Palmerston Olrgerver.
"Early in the preeent session Parliament ha•
been provided) with a startling picture of condit'ons
in Ontario ag'r'iculture. Claiming that the position ot
agriculeure in Canada is the moat eertous Teeter 'u
the country's economic status, Mr. R. -J. Deachman
(Liberal, Huron North) declared the average net
yearly income of Ontario farmers was $3G2. and urg•
edI that Government should do something for an in-
dustry that made net poor returns to those engag-
ed in it."
Editorial Globe & Mail.
"The speech of Hon. R. J, Deachman, M.P.
Tor Huron North, in the House of Commons, in
which he presented! surprising low estimates of the
earning power of average Ontario farmers, 'has come
in for wide disease:on. So great is the intereat in
Mr. Deachman's Maters ent that The Daily Sun -
Times is reproducing in full that part of Mr. Deaeh-
man's speech which c}eals with the farmer's situation
lir Deachman is a Wingham man who has
made a very close study of fartn conditions."
Editorial, Daily Sun -Times, Owen Sound.
Mr. R. J. Deachman, ,Liberal from Huron North,
wv'ho is credited with 'being one of the deepest think -
ere in the Howie. yesterday set forth what he regards
as one of the fundamental problems with whleh the
country has to deal, It is, he claims. dislocation of
population. Of the total population, he pointed out.
40 percent live on farms. The national income is
about $5,00,000.000 annually, yet the (armee! receive
only a little more than $750,000,000 or only slightly
more than one-seventh."
Editorial, tVindsor Star.
"I feel sure that all farmers will appreciate very
mud the able way in welch Mr. Deachman has pla.c-
cd thele facts ltefoee our house of Commons. Cer-
tainly, these conditions must have been realized for
years by our ttove^nmente and we are terry that
HO little bah been done about it."
'Reeve \Vtn. McGregor, of Sydenham, Grey County.
' 1 read the Nynorsk of your speech and also an
e•itvrlal in the "Globe and Mall" ant) enjoyed it very
nsu'!li. It wars tri^Ik'nx from the shoulder without

NORTH HURON LIBERAL ASSOCIATION
'K. J. Leachman is a Liberal, confident that
problems can bo solved by the application of pure
Liberalism. He has a more thorough knowledge of
Liberalism - the theory, htstory, operation of Lib-

Hon. M. Burrell, formerly Chief librarian of the
IIone.3 of Commons,
"We hare read an r.rticle entitled "Back To The
To'srt" by R. J. Deachman, M.P. for North Huron. In
this article Mr. Deachman makes an analysis of our'
present relief expenditure in Canada, and suggests
means of combating It wh'ch, to us, wean reasonable
and wrfl worth consideration. Iii. claim is that costs
of production are ton high duo to the concentration
of indnstry In the cities and seggests that there
should be a gra't'er) movement of manufacturing
away from the larre centres to the outside areas,
the towns of Ontario."
Et'J torial, Napanee Beaver.
"It can lee taken for granted that the Deachmnn
estimate is not a long distance off the path of accur-
acy for he has a reputation for being right in Mtatie•
tics of that nature. ills sizing up of the situation
can be tatren as close enough to he accepted and it
pece:ents a picture that should give everyone some
contern."
lertorial, Peterborough Examiner.
"R. J. Deachttnan, Liberal member for North
Huron, is one of the best informed men in the 1-10"1a3

the pleasant task of debunking fallacies. 1.et some •

March of Time Picture
"CANADA AT WAR"
THE Board of Censors, acting under the authority of The Theatres and
Cinematographs Act, Chapter 319 of the Revised Statutes of Ontario
1937, has prohibited the exhibition of the film "Canada at War." In the
opinion of the Board the picture is capable of being used—and is, in fact,
presently being used in Canada—not for purposes of entertainment or
education but for political propaganda. In proof of this, a copy of an
advertisement published in Vancouver, B.C., papers under the sponsorship
of the Vancouver Liberal Association is shown hereunder.

lAN MACKENZIE

(Facsimile)
In the Montreal Star of March 1, 1940, there also appeared an advertise-
ment reading in part as follows: "Special March of Time 'Canada at War',
sponsored by the Dominion Government now showing daily 10 a.m. to 1
p.m., Sunday 12 noon to 2 p.m."
Moreover, the film "Canada at War", No. 8 in March of Time features,
was released for exhibition in advance of No. 7— which is a picture with
an American appeal. The release date of."Canada at War" was said to have
been advanced three weeks apparently to permit of the display of the filo)
during the Dominion election campaign.
The action of the Board of Censors in prohibiting the exhibition in Ontario
of the March of Time picture "Canada at- War" follows the precedent
adopted in the Ontario provincial election of 1937, during which time the
Liberal Government of Ontario refused to permit the exhibition of films
and pictures which gave vivid accounts and displays of C.I.O. activities
and scenes of violence in American industrial centres. The showing of
the pictures would have been to the undoubted advantage of the Liberal
Government which was opposing C.I.O. activities in Ontario. Yet the
Ontario Liberal Government banned the exhibition of the films and pictures.
The Board of Censors of the Province of Ontario would be false to its duty
if it interfered in the wartime elections campaign by placing its stamp of
approval on a filen such as "Canada at \Var," which in this time of grave
national peril is being used and exploited for purposes of political
propaganda.

Treasurer of Ontario.

DOGS AND SHEEP
There are several obvious rea-
sons why sheep -raising has not so
great an appeal for the Canadian
farmer as the raising of swiue. One
reason was stressed recently by tho
department of agriculture. It is the
menace of the prowling dog.
Many Oleo breeders In ('auada
are of the, opinion that it Is practic-
ally impossible to raise sheep prof-
itably on account of the large )num-
ber of doge which are allowed to
run at large.
As a result, of the nienac.from
dogs there has been a reduction of
75 per cent. in tho number of sheep
raised in one district in which tho
sheep are regarded as the heist pay-
ing cls s of 11v,,stoeh.

CRACK RIFLEMEN
Only a small number of expert
rifle shooters in Canada have ever
accomplished the feat of scoring
the required number of points to
attain the coveted Dominion
Marksmen Expert Shield Award,
but Ontario can boast having 23
crack riflemen who have captur-
ed this prized award in the last
year,
It requires outstanding marks-
manship to post a score better
than 5860 points out of a pos-
sible 6000 in this competition in
which each marksman must shoot
20 targets from each of the stand-
ing, sitting and prone positions.
To gain the expert shield the
shooter must shoot twenty pos-
sibles, that is a perfect score, in
the prone position, and twenty
98's or better in the kneeling or
sitting position, and twenty 95's
or better in the standing offhand
stance. This is no easy job under
the best of circumstances, yet all
23 Ontario marksmen shot above
5900 in the competition and the
highest scorer only dropped 53
points to end with 59.47 out of a
possible 6000.
The honour of the highest in-
dividual score went to the well-
known Ontario rifleman, Ellwood.
Epps of the Clinton Rifle Club
of Clinton while the largest num-
ber of expert awards was won by
shooters from Toronto.
The Only Woman
Tie only woman among the 23
expert winners was Miss M. J. S.
Aldham of the Ormond Marksmen
Club of Ormond. She not only
placed fourth in scoring among
the men but is the only woman in
the province of Ontario to have
captured this coveted prize which
means so much to the outstand-
ing shooter.
Windsor and Port Hope had the
next largest representation among
the group of experts, each of them
claiming three winners. •

An acceptance also has been

UNITY
liloth
Not an Accident
but an Achievement
The REALITY of Canada's unity in this day of great national effort is a source of dis-
play to our enemy — and a factor of strength to ourselves and to our Allies . , . What
Canadians should realize most fully is that their national unity does not exist through
accident . , . it is the direct consequence of resourceful, determined and painstaking
administration during recent years by an experienced and nationally -minded federal
government . , . During the past five years the peacetime policies of the Mackenzie
King Government -- with respect to both domestic and external affairs — have been
designed and executed with one plain purpose in view — the strengthening of Can-
ada's bonds of nationhood . , . Because those policies were sound; because they in-
creased the pleasure of contentment throughout Canada; because they avoided
clashes between provinces and races and creeds; because they were equally considerate
of agriculture, industry and labour , . , , because those policies have been truly
national in scope, Canada is today putting forth a great, united, national war effort.
These are the sort of things Which have
contributed to unifying our nation:—
A Program of Trade Treaties — lowering
Canada's tariff barriers and opening new
market opportunities for citizens of every
province ... achieved by the Liberal ad-
ministration in spite of the opposition of
Conservatives, and the indifference of
C. C. F. and Social Credit
Development of the Trans -Canada Air-
ways — bringing the people of East and.
VVest into over -night contact . • , created
by the Mackenzie King Government from
the ashes of the first airway attempt —
sabotaged by the Conservatives.
Support for the Canadian National Rail-
ways System — Liberals have been stead-
fast in standing behind this great national
enterprise of the Canadian people
while Conservatives have worked assidu-
ously for destruction of the system.
A National Agricultural Policy — a new
conception of federal encourageinent for
the farm families of every province.
Publicly Owned Central Bank—the Bank
of Canada, focal point of our national fin-
ancial problems, vas changed to public
ownership by the Mackenzie King Govern-
ment . . , reversing the Conservative pol-
icy of a central bank owed by private
stockholders.
Co-operative Action on Unemployment
Problems -- the Mackenzie King Govern-
ment has co-operated willingly and con-
tinuously with the provincial govern-
inents in efforts to overcome the unem-
ployment problem • • . the Conservative
policy of denying all federal responsibility
in this matter was rejected by the Liber-
als.
Parliament's Right to Decide on War -•--
Mackenzie King promised the people of
all Canada that the country would not be
committed to war without the sanction of
parliament . , , He held to that pledge
honorably and steadfastly, in spite of the
personal abuse which was heaped upon
him and his government by hot -heads who
did not represent the collective views of
Canadian people.
No Prior Commitments — the King Gov-
ernment — wisely interpreting the wishes
of the Canadian people — refused to com-
mit this country,. in advance, to a policy
of fighting wars at unpredictable tittles, at
unknown places and for undetermined
causes.
The Quebec Election — when certain
political opportunists in the province of
Quebec attempted to disrupt Canadian un-
ity and seriously halt our national war ef-
fort the men of the Mackenzie King Gov -
eminent were the ones who went in and
fought to preserve national solidarity . , .
The Conservative national leader remain-
ed silent during this crisis -- when his
voice should have rung out on behalf of
national unity , .. Because the courageous
action of Mackenzie King and his Quebec
ministers helped the electors to keep the
only true issue clearly in mind, Quebec
was able to reaffirm, her proud position
.. , . squarely and loyally and warmly
behind Canada's national war effort.
On March 26th show your faith in Canad-
ian Unity; Vote for the candidate support-
ing Mackenzie King and make sure there
can be no break in Canada's Steadfast
• stand.

CHAPTER XII
Iris rode down to the hospital
in •Dr. Pitcher's coupe, right be.
hind the ambulance, It would do
no good, as the doctor pointed out.
Mr, Whittaker would not know
anyone for several days to come,
He.was a very sick man,
"Business troubles?" he had
. asked Iris, in tine little living
room, after examining Bard, Aft-
er telling her bluntly her husband
had pneumonia,
"Yes," she' said faintly.
• "Well you look like a sensible
young lady, You go right down
to your job and ' hold things to-
gether, If worry got him into this
. state, then he'll recover a lot
quicker, when he begins to gain,
if he knows you'ro keeping things
running • for` him, You—ah—work
in Deati•Somers' office, I believe?
"Yes."
It was cold and blustery and
there was a raw, after -rain bite
to the fall wind, but Iris walked
all the way from the hospital to
the office. And at noon, after she
talked with Ellen Trent, she took
the coat back,
"This was what Bart worried
about, Iris, you see, Budget pay-
ments are fine if everything runs
smooth, If nobody is sick, and
everyone keeps working. Or if
you've a reserve fund to fall back
on." .
No Reserve Fund
That . was what frightened her.
No reserve fund, No money sac-
od, n6 insurance, nothing to fall
back on. And Bart sick, He'd have
to stay in the hospital six weeks
at least. There'd be tho hospital
and doctors to pay. She'd have to
live. Maybe she'd have to be the
sole support of the family for a
long time. If Bart didn't recover
from his illness fast.
During the days that followed,
• the serene order of Iris' former
existence vanished forever. No
longer could she dawdle at break-
fast, or lunch when, how, and
with whom she pleased, Or on
whatever she liked. Nor were her
evenings untouched by the calam.
ity which befell them.
To begin with, she went to the
hospital morning, noon and night.
And for five dreadful days, there
was no change. For five days, sho
did not step foot in the room, or
even get to the closed door with
the nurse sitting on guard at the
ward desk, outside, Pleasant, effi-
cient, firm, the nurse was,
For those five days she lived
in an awful nightmare of unreal-
ity. With worry, growing hydra-
headed, every time she stopped
working long enough to rz'lnemher
Bart. Remember how ill he was.
Remember all that had happened,
and all that was happening still
to them,

There was the shop. The speed
with which creditors pounced up-
on the little shop attaching every-
thing that wasn't already being

had not yet been paid for mer-

bill for $480 'for advertising. The
Clarion had to be paid, The ad.
vertising manager insisted they
must be paid.
There was the landlord, talking
loud and very angry about three
months rent overdue. There were
bills, hills, everywhere, all of
then duo, long past due. There
were collectors and disagreeable,
hard -faced men who spoke of in-
junctions, liens and claims, and
waved long folded papers.
There was young Howard Lang,
attorney at law, and boyhood
friend of Bart's, And finally, there
was no more shop, an& peace, Ex-
cept for the fact that Bart must
be told. Sometime, When he was
well again, when he was strong
enough to bear knowing.
Meanwhile there were her own
tangled budgets. There was the
Woe Gown Shop, and the Miss-
es' Budget Shop, and the Char-
lotte Shoppe.
Seated at the little table Bart
had enameled for her, the first
week of their marriage, Iris sipped
a cup of hot tea, and nibbled but-
tered toast and a boiled egg and
a dish of baked apple. Eating
mechanically, she began writing
down every single bill, every ac-
count. Racking her mind lest she
forget a single item. The nmillc
bill, the drugstore, the jewelers,
where Bart had purchased the dia-
mond ring. Sho had a staggering
list' when they were all set down,
• Enough to fairly kill her appetite.
But she finished the last crumb
of toast, poured out the remain-
ing half cup of hot tea and drank
it,
The Little Book-
Rummaging
ookRummaging in the desk, where
Bart had nvorked with the budget
book, worked at his accounts,
when ho brought things home from
the shop to finish up, Iris found
the little black book, Opening it
desperately, she leafed through it
in feverish haste, Food; menus,
buying, planning meals, using up
leftovers. Puddings, parties, sav-
ings, insurance, investments, plan-
ning your future. The book didn't
miss a trick.
"Do you need all you think you
have to have now?" asked a chap-
ter. It gave Iris pause for thought.
Did she?
* R: i
y
Soberly, she flung open the
closet door. Suddenly, she began
taking down the clothes she had
loved so well. Loved beyond every-
thing else. She was another Thais,
now, burning all on the altar of
her devotion, only nunlike Thais,
she did not withhold her tiny fig-
urine of the god of love. Unlike
Thais, she made no reservations.
Because this was voluntary, but it
! N5as also marsh necessity, Because
now she understood what Bart
said when he hated credit, hated
budget buying', and hated install-
ment payments. Now she knew.
It was because of the awful shame,
if you couldn't pay. The shame
of knowing you had something
you hadn't paid for, and couldn't
pay for. Something you had no
right to; that didn't belong to
you. That was what lay back of
every budget bought article. That
great black shadowy doubt.
Her Clothes Sold
In the morning, she asked El-
len about second-hand clothes buy-
ers. And at noon, she went to the
dry cleaning and second-hand
clothes establishment.
"We'd have to see the garments,
Madam," the man told her blunt-
ly. "Sure 'we buy. But the price
depends on the goods. People who
buy second-hand clothes don't care, r
about classy duds."
The amount she received was
so much less than she had ex-
pected, Iris was tempted not to
let the clothes go. She did really
need them. But—the bills drove
her on. She sold them for what
site could get, and took the money
to pay on her budget accounts.
She sold the chair and smok-
ing stand, and the furnishings in
the apartment. Then she rented a
big room with a double bed and
comfortable chairs, and a small
bath in Mrs. Brady's Boarding
House. She moved in that Sunday.
A week from her return from her
honeymoon -vacation. She moved
in, and left word at the hospital
that she could be reached at Mrs.
Brady's telephone. .
On Monday morning, she took
the diamond back and received
$20, since Bart had the ring al-
most paid for. The $20 cleared
up an account site had been un-
able to pay anything on after sell-
ing the greater part of her ward-
robe.
Through all the trouble and
confusion of those days Iris never
missed her friends. Or noticed
that they were curiously occupied,
curiously busy, and too concerned
with their own affairs to know
what was happening to her, or
whet she was doing. And when it
was all over, when the shop was
closed, and a FOR RENT sign on
the door, when the apartment was
dismantled, and TO LET blazon-
ing the street. windows, when she
was settled in her single room at
Mrs, Brady's and getting ready to
go to the hospital to see Bart,
again, Iris remembered,

Let them. Bart was right.
$ *
Coming into the hospital, that
morning 'to see Burt, Iris was
startled to see Ted Bingham wait-
ing. And beside him, a dark pretty
girl, obviously his wife, Dotty.
"Hello, Mrs. Whittaker," Ted
said eagerly, "we heard Bart was
sick and 'we came over to see if
there was anything ,we could do.
You had moved from the address
Mr. Whittaker told us, and nobody
seemed to know where you'd gone.
So we came clown here."
Iris felt the damp streaks on
her face, the tears she had been
unable to sheet all the long dreary
hours of straightening out the
mess that had been her old life.
The life Bart had been unable to
bear. That had worried him into
neglecting his health, into this
dreadful illness.
"Ted," she said simply, remem••
. kering Bart had called the young
man that; feeling somehow that it
would please Bart if she called
him that now, if she was nice to
him, "Ted, the very first thing
going to tell Bart, when he
can see isle, is that you two were
here to see him!" She swallowed
then and blinked, but the blur
wouldn't vanish,
"He'll be proud to know you
remembered -- and eared," she
said softly,
They went out, slowly and a
nurse carie toward her smiling.
''Good news for you this morn-
ing, I4Irs. Whittaker, You're tlo
see that big husband of yours for
a Iittle while. But you'll remem-
ber not to excite or worry him
won't you? And not to stay too
long?"
He Understood
Inside. the quiet, dim room that
was much too cold for comfort,
Iris stood by the high white iron
bed and felt her eyes blurring so
she couldn't see lt<u•t at all. Then
his hand, thin but warm, found
hers and closed around it tightly.
Silently, they stood thus. Silently,
while a deep vast prayer of grati-
tude swelled in Iris' heart, swept
up to engulf her, until it pounded
and beat in her cars like thunder.
"Darling," she whispered shak-
ily, "l'm so glad 1 c'an sec you,"

"Stand by honey," Bart tried to
grin and decided it was too much
'mirk, but his dark eyes clung to
her face as if hungry for every
dearly beloved, familiar feature
he had remembered, "everything's
going to be O.K. now,"
"Of course, darling," Iris said
steadily, "there aren't any more
bills now, Bart. And when you're
home again, you'll be surprised at
how I can run that budget book.
I'm getting all practiced up now."
He grinned then.
"Wife," he said. Dimly, Iris un-
derstood. Dimly she realized that
her days of being a bride, a fool-
ish, spendthrift, extravagant bride
were past. Dimly she realized that
Bart understood. And peace came
to her soul.
