Love’s Awakening The Heart $tory of [ Steadfast Woman By Adele Garrison A Letter from Marion, at School, Gives Lillan Something to Worry “The letter's from Marion,” Lli- lian sald when 1 had followed her into her own room and the door was _closed upon us. “Read it and see if yOu get out of it what I do. I wrote her to send her letters here frow yesterday on.” I took up the letter with fits school-girl scrawl—Marion is un- doubtedly one of the worst penwo- men in the world—and began to read with the pleasure which one of her letters always es me. Al- ways they are brimming over with her own happy enthusiasm. “My own Mummy, it began. “Haven't 1 besn the model daugh- ter thought? Do you realize that T've written you every day since I've been here. Some of the girls laugh at me, but I don't care. They have not mothers like mine. “I don't know how long I can Keep it up, though, dearest. You told me, you know. not to, if the work got too hard. and it's beginning to be something fierce. It's senior year, you know, and that means a lot of extras. “Mummy, will you think I'm aw-! ful if T tell yoa that I haven't heen homesick once since I came back? | Oh! 1 know you don’t want me to be homesick, you've tried to get me out of it, but it seems—someway gort of treacherous to you not to be.” 1 looked up at Lillian to see her watching me. | “You've reached the ‘treachery’| part, T suppose,” she said with a| sad little emile. “They all go through that,” 1 said with remembrances of my! teaching days, “but some of them. like Marion, have especially tender | sensibilities.” “I wish she didn't,” she “It's going to make life he sighed hard fo I went back to my reading with- | out comment. Lillian was in the, maternal mood when anything said concerning her child would not be| just the right thing. Carolyn’s “Joke" “I think it's because Carolyn is | 80 wonderful,” the letter ran on.| “Mummy, she is the most marvel- | ous girl. I've never had a real| friend before, although 1 liked a lot | o the girls last year. But none or| them were like Caroiyn, and she | says she thinks the same about me. T wish I could believe her, but T do not see how she could think me the | nicest girl in the whole school as she says she does. | want her to send I can’t write to you, because they’d sound so silly—things like she never had a sister, but she has hopes now—you know the kind of jokes girls get off." I was conscious that Lillian's hands were gripped in her lap, and 1 felt a sudden impatience with her. Ot course, I knew as well as she that Carolyn's *“joke" referred to her brother, Ronald, whose admira- tion for Marion had so disturbed Lillian upon the occasion of the Brixton visit to the farmhouse. But was she never to face with calm. ness, even amusement, the proces- | sion of youthful admirers which 1 prophesied for Marion. Alibi for Charles Owen “I'll tell you about them when T get home,” Marion's letter rattled on. “Just now I have something to ask you. Ronald wrote to me the other day from Yale, where he's getting settled as a freshman. It was an awfully nice, friendly letter, making all sorts of plans for Care- lyn and me coming up to the foot- ball games and dances. Thero wasn't a thing in it which I wouldn't want you to read, but—do you want me | to send his letters to you? None of the girls do here, but a lot of them do something. 1 don't believe I'll ao. They read their boy friends’ letters to, each other, even the love ones, and laugh themselves sick over the way the boys write.” “Well!" Lillian demanded as I in- voluntarily looked up again. I told myself that she was positively psy- chic in her recognition of the line 1 was reading. “What shall 1 tell her about those letters?” I looked at her in an amazement that I purposely exaggerated “Do you need me to tell that?" 1 asked. “Nevertheless, I want your ad- vice,” she returned steadily. “Then, tell ner no, you them home,” T said firmly. “She may want to show them to you when she comes home, hut buing your girl, she won't 1=t that youth write her things she wouldn't be willing you you do not | should read. She's a wholesome lit- tle girl now. Don't make her grow up by being a martinet.” “I won't.” she said with surpris- ing meekness. Then she took the letter from me. “I fancy, I'm more used scraw) than you are” she said, “I'll read the rest to you. It's the alibi T've been cxpecting for one Mr. Charles Owen.” (Continuzd Tomorrow) vright, 1929, Newspaper to her Co e says other things teo, that RWAPPY JACK LOSES A ,BREAKFAST + By Thornton W.

There was one particular hig flat stone on the old stone wall, along the edge of the Old Orchard, which Farmer Brown's Roy said was Mappy Jack's table. Mrs. Happy ck used to go there with him. She was not quite so fearless as Happy Fack, for she had never had quite courage enough to take food from the hends of Iarmer Brown's Boy #a Huppy Jack often did. ‘It was to this table that Mr. ani Mrs. Happy Jack proudly led a lit- tle family of four, as soon as the Istter were old enough. With always plenty to eat, these aquirrels grew fast. Very proud of thelr family was Happy Jack, and & wonderful time they all had ecar- ly in the moraing as they frisked about on the old stone wall and in the trees near by. Farmer Brown's Boy used to delight in watching them. Early one morning, Happy Jack had gone over for an extra early Breakfast. He was sitting on the edge of the tahle—which, you know was & big flat stone in the stone wall. It was a beautiful spring horning.

S. Towns With Same Names as Ties of Friendship Editor's Note: The Marchioness Townsend, chatelaine of beautiful Raynham Hall in Norfolk, England. and Mayor of King's Lynn, will-sall for the United States on June 22. She is coming as the guest of the municipality of Lynn, Mass., to take part in its tercentenary cele- bration because this city was named after the town over which she pre. sides.” In the following article, written for The Herald and NEA Bervice, she gives some pertinent thought to the closer knitting of re- lations between the United States and England. BY THE MARCHIONESS TOWNSEND World peacs, I think most right- thinking people believe, is in the hands of England and America, the two great English-speaking nations. Ever closer friendship between these two countries can best con- serve the progress of white civili- zation. My thoughts have turned es. pecially in this direction since ths town of Lynn in Massachusetts enough to ask me to come over to join with them in their joy over the three-hundredth anniversary of the city's existence. 1t has led me to think that other towns in America and other towne in great Britain can have similar close ties. Building Common Interest As you may be aware, after the great r was over, a num- ber of British towns adopted vil- lages and towns in the devastated areas of France and Belgium with the idea of helping them rebuild. and tide them over the first evii days of the reconstruction period. Happily, there is no such need of such adoption by English towns of American towns, or vice versa. But there can be a sort of adop- tion which will give them some- thing of a common interest. For instance, when I come to Lynn, I can tell the good citizens there all about King's Lynn, after which their place was named. And when I come back home, 1 can tell the people of King's Lynn all about the hustling, enterpris- ing American city of Lynn. Thers will be thus a tie of sympathetic understanding betwecn the two places. Now there must be dozens and dozens of American towns which were named after British towns, this being especially so, I under- stand, in the older state: It each British town and its American name-sake were brought together in some way, it would help bind our two countries together, not by written treaties, not by alli- ances, not by ententes, but by means of something stronger—mu- tual understanding, mutual friend- ship, mutual sympathies. The people of the one town could visit the other. The schools ould have pictures of the towns n the school rooms. The children of the English town could be told something about the far-away American town which was similar- ly named, and vice versa. The feeling of strangeness, of remote nees, of foreignness would be abated. Each set of citizens would feel a mutual interest in the well- being and fortunes of the other set. Understanding begets sym- pathy and sympathy begets friend- ship. Promoting Friendship I feel sure that the more :ng- lish people know about America and the more Americans know about England, the closer they will draw together. Our aims are very much the same. In both countries the people rule. In both the one great ambition and hope is for peace in the world. In both there is a hatred of war and a very closs insight into the fact that there is very little glory in armed conflicts and a very great deal of sorrow and suffering and misery. In both countries, too, thers a very keen desire to ge¢ on | the day's work. to develop | the nation's business, to ghve em- ployment to as many people as possible, to make even the hum- | blest share the general prospepity that ensues when the factories arc humming, the shops are busy, and the farmers finding a ready mar- ket for their crops. War inter. feres with all these things. Peace promotes them. Together we can further the cause of peace. There is every reason in the world why we should be together. There is no question arising between our two countries, 80 far as I can see, that cannot be settled amiably by reagonable men | and Insight Heroine The Marchioness Townsend is mavor of King's Lynn, England, and chatelaine of Raynham Hall (below). {bright colors.

I've noticed that her fad of the moment always is the fad of her current chum. “We don't encourage Nancy sim- ply because by this time we know that none of her notions will amount to anything. In fact, we try to laugh her out of an idea before she squanders her own allowance on it or expects us to give her ex- tra money.” Poor Nancy! 8he sounds all at sea with no port in sight. Certainly sho | neéds help, but first of all she needs understanding. There are ever 50| many children just like her, and is getting a great deal of fun out of life. One thing 1s certain, no matter what are the causes for their evanescent interests, they should not be laughed at. Any child who dashes from one enthusiasm to another in a way which shows no genuine absorption in any one is the vietim of disturb- in curents of feeling which he himself probably would be least Iikely to understand. His chamelcon enthusiasms are but the expressions of some .deep emotional need for which he is unable to find satis- faction. Siuch a child, whose parents ap pear to have lost the key to his thoughts and feelings, should be | studied by specialists in child be- | havior. Otherwise, precious years of development may be wasted and the child himself may become fixed in habits of work and attention. which always will prove a handicap.
