She felt rather thin saw that he turned to look at her. “1 envy you,” he said suddenly. “You know so little of life—and you will have such fun finding out all about it.” “Did you find it fun?” “Did I? * Well, 1 found it out very differently from the way you will 1 found it out artificially, among people who ‘don’t really count a great deal.” “I think fllm people count enor- mously, if you mean them,” Georgle sald. “Look at the pleasure they glve people like me. Why, betore 1 ever knew you, you'd given me so much to think about—" she broke ot “And since you've known me, the great disillusion has set in, I sup- pose,” Boyd said cynically. “It's a mistake for people like me ever to #ppear in the flesh. Not that I count one iota now.” “You count a lot of fotas,” Geor- “More iotas to lne now than you did before.” ~ There W48 a fittle silence, then Boyd sald, “Some day, Robin, you will make ‘& man very happy.” She laughed a little tremulously. “I would much, rather that some man made me happy,” she told him. “T' think it ‘must be wonderful to have someone all your very own, to know that when he confes to the house, he comes to see you; to know that you can write to him and tell #m how much you love him with- oiit it being thought perfectly aw- fil; to know that it you're unhappy you.can rush to hint and tell him all about it and be sure that he'll un- derstand and be kimd.” YD said: “I am afraid there are not many men in the world who 'vs"nld come up to your ideals, Rob- " ‘Georgle sighed. “And if there were, they'd all be married, I ex- t,” she sald unthinkingly.

He lives in London too.” The silence fell again, which she presently broke. “Shall you go back to America, afterwards?” He laughed. “The more I think of America the further it seems to | recede;” he said with a touch of bit- “1 shall certainly never go back unless—" he did not finish his. | sentence, but Georgie understood. “It will be a success,” she sald quickly, and then, “But if it isn't what will you do then?” It seemed a’ long time until he answered. “I suppose I shali pass into the land of forgotten men.” “You will never be forgotten,” Georgié said almost anquly. “I shan't forget you, anyway.” “Then no doubt you will be the solitary exception,” he answered with grim mirth. 3 “There’s your wife,” Georgie said impulsively, then caught her breath. “Yes,” Nicholas echoed. ‘“There is certainly my wife.” “And will she come and settle down here with you?” Boyd thought suddenly of his parting from Bernie and of her re- peated parrot-cry: “I can't live in YACHT.. 2 O WILL LECTURE ABOUT ESKIMOS TUE&BAY NIGHT [Five Hundred Slides Will Also Be Shown by Rev. F. M. Menager Tomorrow evening (Tuesday) at 8:15 o'clock in the assembly rooms of St. Ann's Parochial School, residents of Juneau are invited to attend an illustrated lecture by the | Rev. ~ Francis M. Menager, whc for six years has been in the dis- trict of Hooper Bay, Akulurak and Pilgrim Springs, with his | headquarters in Nome the past éar. Over 500 sihides will be shown | revealing the home life of the | Northern Eskimos, and show what | has been accomplished in their education and gencral develop- ment. The pictures were taken personally by Father Menager on his numerous dogteam and air- plane visits to the various missions in the large area of 300,000 square miles under his supervision. Of special interest are the pictures of | King Island, between Nome anc | Siberia, a rugged and scarred mountain top thrust 600 feet above the waters, and to whose precipit- ous craigs cling the habitation: of the strange people who call i homs.

Boyd turned suddenly, so that his back was to the gate. “Do you know, Robin,” he said, in a curiously soft voice. “You are a very dear little girl?” “Am I?” Her eyes were like stars in the pale moonlight. “Then do you like me a little?” “More than a little, perhaps,” he admitted reluctantly. ER eyes met his for a moment, then she broke out— “And yet you said you didn’t want to be friends with me any more?” “Perhaps that is the reason. My friendship is no use to you. If they make me . . . less hideous again, I shall go back to my old life, and if not—" “It not,” Georgile said quickly, “you can still be friends with me. I shouldn't care it you were as hide- ous as . . . as theé Hunchback of No- tre Dame,” she said eagerly, casting about in her mind for the most viv- id symbol she knew. “As a matter of fact I didn’t think he was so hide- ous. He was so pathetic.” “And do you think I am pathet- e?” There was a little silence, then Georgie said very gently: “I think you’re just a darling.” Nicholas turned his head sharply away, and Georgie went on. “I don't suppose 1 ought to say things like this, though 1 really can't see why. If you see a flower nobody minds if you say how beautiful it is, or a tree, a great, strong, beauti- ful tree—" She stopped, a mm ashamed of her éloquence. “And if the tree is bnud and falling?” Nicholas said. Georgie crept a little nearer to him.’ “It’s still the same tree,” she said. She hesitated a moment, then slipped a hand into his. “It seems such a pity that you , won't fét ‘e be &s nice to you #s I huz to be,” she said simply. ! Boyd took his hand away. y0u know that you are say- ing 411 the things to me that 1 ought to he saying t6 you?” he asked. She matle a’ helpless ‘fittle ges- ture, and after a moment Boyd Sald: ““My Wite alsd sirives next Friday, hol;fl.” Al “Oh, but { thought you sald—" “She has changed her inind and ll coming§oonef*” ° ' Gegrgie stared down at the short |rui fi het feet; it tooked ‘flvbry in tire ‘pate moonitght. “Well,” she said at last, “I sup- pose it’s only natural she should want to be with you u 800D a8 DOS- sibte.” “As you would want to be, it you were my wife,” he said. *1 should pever have left you it I had been your wife,” Georgle an- swered.

J., former pastor of the Church of the Nativity, is accompanying his brother, Francis. Owing to the limited time he will bz in Ju- neau, it will be the only opportun- ity he will have of meeting them. The Rev. Gabriel is enroute to Nome, wher2 he is to be pastor of St. Joseph’s Church. Since leav- ing Juneau in the fall of 1930 he has been Havre, Montana, whers he was Superior of Indian Mis- sions at Fort Belknap Agency, and in charge of Rockyboy Indian Mission. The Rev. Prancis Menager has just returned from a two months’ official trip to the States. “Busi- ness conditions are greatly im- proved, and the American people have unbounded faith that our great President with his excep- tional ability and proven leader- ship will, through the National Re- covery Act, bring the countryback to normal prosperity,” he said. “The greater optimism and con- fidance are apparent to the most casual observer,” The Canadian passengers on the steamer Princess Louise, on which Father Menager arrived, were squally enthusiastic about Presi= dent Roosevelt and said that ‘Can- ada placed great hope in him.
