Kathleen knew she was re- ferring to Angus Gregory. “Some of his legal lights,” sighed Kathleen. “I hope they'll enjoy their stay in The Gregory.” Bridget looked around her room. It was cozy, colorful. Beside her typewriter lay the growing stack of manuscript. “I suppose I'll have to retire to the tall timber,” she sighed. “The whole legal staff knows me much too well. But anyone would be bet- ter than your father. Can’t you imagine how he’d feel to find me here after he’s searched both New York and Chicago to hire me back?” Kathleen nodded.

Kathleen Thanksgiving ee did not ga to the veranda to watch the sunrise the next morning. Instead, she went to bed to sleep soundly for many hours and then to dream of Donald MacDonald and a painted canyon, and of legal seals coming up from the stream té run Donald and herself to the caving tops of Seay cots. The days went sliding along and the snow held as though awaitin, its cue to fall. Kathleen ani Bridget felt as though they were awaiting some cue. Their patients returned home, the nurses re- turned to the mine, and life fell into routine.

Mac- Mullen, U. S. A., the speaker of the evening. From the first to the last word in his address the colonel held the attention of his hearers, es- pecially when his discourse touched the theme of war. The speaker stressed the fact that no one who had _ seen war) had any desire for a like experi- ence, and also made plain the fact that preparedness would be only defense against aggres- . should aggression come.

It was a wonderfully instructive as well as highly en- tertaining talk, and provided his hearers with much food for in- tensive thought. Guests present were Colonel MacMullen, Sam D. Cole, and after enjoying a delightful repast, the club adjourned for a session at shuffle board, and explained to any listener who could be cor-| nered, how it was that the Masonic Shuffle Board experts were so, lamentably able, to van- quish the members of the Serv- ice Club. | at vac ewesgecacuceuinss | AROUND AND ABOUT (By C.
