Major Anderson broke the silence. “Well, Inspector?” ‘The inspector laid down his pen. “I shall have to ask you to accom- pany me to the station, Mr, Ran- dal.” Caroline’s breath stopped for a moment. All her color died. Her eyes were very wide open. She turned to Jim and slipped her arms through his. “The inspector stood up, and just as he did that, the telephone bell began to ring. Major Anderson came to the table and took up the receiver. He said, “Yes—yes—speaking,” and then beckoned to the inspector. Re rn “Station for you,” he said, and ‘went back to the hearth. Caroline jeaned against Jim and wished that be would put his arm around her. She loved him with all her heart and soul. That was what he had said to her—“I love you with all my heart and soul.” But he wouldn’t put his arm around her. Stie heard the ins F say, “You're sure?” And then, “Who knows him? ... .

They man- aged to secure him and brought him to the station. Lockwood says he’s but that part of my story is corrobo- Tated—you'll admit that. And for the rest, 1 would like the inspector to make a note of the fact that I made & statement of what took place be- tween myself and Elmer Van Berg, after being warned by Major Ander- son that he was likely to recover eonsciousness at any moment.” B telephone bell rang again. Caroline had the strangest feel- ing that it was ringing in her head. ‘She closed her oyes and heard Ma- Jor Anderson say, “Hullo!” a . , Where was a pause, She knew that the bell had stopped, iT that, she hear it still.

And then Jim's arms round her, and he was kissing her blind eyes, and her wet cheeks, and her soft treim- bling mouth. A warm, golden happi- ness flowed over her. The tears ran down ber cheeks. It didn't make you unhappy to cry. when there was someone to kiss the tears away. “Caroline—my darling! Don’t cry! It’s all right—it’s all’ over—there’s nothing to ery for.” “I thought he was going to take you away to prison.” “So did 1.“But he won't now, so there isn’t anything to cry about.” - “That's just why ['m crying.” “Because you've got nothing to about?” She nodded vehemently against his shoulder. “If you'd gone to prison, | wouldn’t have cried. I'd have told everyone we were engaged, and I wouldn't have cried a single tear."Oh, Jim!” “Oh, Caroline!” “You're sure it’s all right?” “Yes. If Blmer’s recovered con- sciousness, I'm clear. If he'd died— well, we don’t need to thing about that, darling. Major Anderson rattled the han- dle before he came back into the room. Having opened the door, he allowed Dr. Lefroy to precede him. The inspector followed. M AJOR ANDERSON went: up.to. +V4 Jim, with his hand out, “My dear Randal, f can’t say how pleased fam!” He shook hands with him heartily. ‘Van Berg’s statement corroborates yours in every detail. Now what we want is your state. ment in writing.” Dr. Lefroy was shaking hands too. “Does Van Berg say what hap pened after 1 went out?” said Jim. Kitty Lefroy’s father was a big hearty man with a well-preserved brogue. “Say? He says everything. And you may. be thankful he does, my boy, by all accounts. He says you let yourself out, and all of a sudden he heard the window creak and he thought you’d come back. And it’s lucky for you he turned round and saw that it wasn’t you at all. -“He saw a man with a cap pulled down over flis eyes and a revolver in his hand. The man said, ‘Put ‘em up!’ and Van Berg says he was hanged if he was going to let the emeralds go lik t, so he charged ~ him. That's all he knows. The fel- low must have shot him down as he came on. Fortunately, he can de ibe him.” “The description tallies with yours,” said the inspector. “Now if you'll kindly let us have that state ment—” Half an nour later they drove back to Hazelbury West in Jock Ander- son’s car, Jim drove. It fs to be feared that he had one arm around Caroline. The roads were dark and empty. It would be midnight before they reached the cottage. “And | expect, Patey Ann will have been ringing up the police,” said Caroline. “Let her!” said Jim. “They're our bosom friends—we love them, and they love us. And only a few hours ago we skulked in lanes and bid be- hind hedges! I somehow don't think Tl go in for being a crook. It’s a dog’s life. Besides, you wouldn't marry me if I was a crook.” . “'M—” said Caroline. “Does that mean yes or no?” Caroline laughed. . “Tt doesn't mean either,” “What does it mean?” She snuggled up to him. “if you were a crook, it wouldn't be you—but I'd marry you whatever you Were.”'* They drove into the little garage, locked in the borrowed car, and passed through the dark garden, where the bushes looked like black bummocks. “Patsy Ann will be wild,” aaid Caroline, She slipped tn her key and oyenei the door. Patsy Arbuthnot wag sitting at the table, which was littered with sheets of stiff dlue writing paper. They were all covered with Robert's up- right, formal writing. As the door opened, Patsy picked up the first sheet again. It began: “My dearest Patsy.” It was wonderful to be Rob- ert’s dearest. She gazed absently over the top of the sheet at Caro Une. “It's trightfully late,” said Caro ne, “but—" “Is it late?” sald Patsy Ann. ery ' Li ° Today’s Horoscope} This is a very fortunate day.

And it was the power of this idea in 1917 which impelled the Amer- iean people to assemble their armies, garner their treasuries and sail across the great Atlantic , because they were impelled © and jactuated by the power of that one ‘ple. There is wonderful power in gteat idea as written into our Con- an idea. In all ages of human history, men and women sacrificed their all, when actuated by an idea which they considered noble and praiseworthy. For One Cause “It made no difference where the game in the first inning-when'the Holy Sepulcher was or who a pitched ball injured his right' was in control of the land, in thumb so that he could not con- which it was located, and yet the tinue.

For some reason or;the power of. an ‘idea. other some of the players are dis- contented with the performance of certain players and for this rea- son the boys are not playing to- gether as they should. The whole thing seems a little too deep for Manager Hamlin to see. True, it is apparent that the Pi- rates have too strong a team, but they can be» whipped. In two games the Sluggers have gotten only five hits, scored no runs and only two men reached third base. It is either too much Pirate pitching or lack of hitting practice on the part of the Slug- gers. Manager Mendoza i “The differences of opinion be- tween the fathers of the church and the great leaders of the re- formation was not of very great moment or importance, and yet for almost a century there was conflict and bloodshed. They were actuated by the power of an idea. “The Thirty Years War in Europe led by that great king and soldier, Gustavus Adolphus, on one side and Wallenstein on the other, in which Europe was drenched with blood and monarchs toppled from their thrones.

And the Amer- ican people gloried at the sound of the martial tread of their armies following the glorious Stars and Stripes. And this war- fare was kept up until November 11, 1918, when their efforts were crowned with victory over the sarmies of the oppresser. There has not been sufficient time for us to know the real result of that great war. We do know kings were uncrowned, national bound- aries changed, and a system of political economy and public thought is now prevailing in Europe of which they never heard prior to the Armistice of 1918. In Flanders Field “Let us hope that the noble dead did not die in vain. Let us hope the sacrifices made were not lost, but they were loaves of bread cast upon the waters which after many days may return bearing much fruit. Let us hope that Flanders Field will be the scene of a new dedication to human free- dom and equality. Let us hope that when our armies marched through the Argonne forest that it was a new exodus out of the labyrinth of darkness and error into the bright sunlight of human liberty, intelligence and happi- ness. “There are still great battles to fight and problems to solve, which you young men now enter- ing citizenship will have to fight.
