Dusk was stealing over them; all around, in the Bois, lights were popping up; it was growing chilly on the veranda. “Let’s go in and dance for a while,” she murmured, as she hook- ed her fingers contentedly througk his. “And, please, don't row any more this evening, Ray— I want to be such a wonderful night—" “1t will be” he assured her squeezing her fingers. “How could it fail to be? You and I..." Late that night the returned the hotel. They were tired, botn of them, tired and keyed up at the same time. It seemed to come over them suddenly, as they stood there be- side the white twin beds, that they were actually married.

ARE YOU PREPARED TO HELP MAKE A SUCCESS OF Friendship Day ? It comes on CHRISTMAS December 25th 1 his Year You perhaps recall the story of Antonio and Bassanio in The Merchant of Venice. Bassanio, a dashing young blade, desired to court the beau- tiful Portia. But Bassanio was lacking in funds so he went to his friend, Antonio, and begged him to lend him some money. Antonio was wealthy, but all of his wealth was invested in ships and cargoes. All of his ships were at sea. In short, An- tonio had no cash. So he arranged with Shylock, the money lender, to provide Bassanio with two thousand ducats. Antonio went bond for Bassanio. Shylock agreed to make the loan—on condition that if the money was not repaid to him on a specified day, then Antonio was to forfeit a pound of his flesh, to be taken from the place nearest his heart. (Shylock, you will remember, hated Antonio and he desired revenge far more than the return of the ducats). This story, by the late Mr. Shakespeare reveals the power of a great friendship. But there are many real friendships that are just as staunch and noble as the one in the Merchant of Venice. All through the ages there have been friendships that are a constant source of inspiration to people everywhere. In our own day there are also friendships which exite our admira- tion and réspect. : To foster friendship is the purpose of the GREETING or CHRISTMAS CARD expression and our purpose at this time is to urge YOU to make your selection NOW while our assort- ment of CHRISTMAS and GREETING CARDS is complete and the very fact of your ordering early insures you of an INDI- VIDUAL CARD which will not be duplicated in this vicinity, in short an exclusive card to fit your sentiments and individ- uality. : Our representative will gladly call if you will Telephone 374 ‘ e Empire and show you the MOST ATTRACTIVE DISPLAY OF GREET- ING and CHRISTMAS CARDS.
