Hy fingers were numb. His brain fagged. Someone knocked on the door. He started and stared at Toba. She did not seem aware of the intrusion. “It must be Marian,” he thought He glanced at his watch.

Filipino Boys Turn to Berry Picking Here A score of Filipino students have recently been helped over a trying: situation by the Seattle Goodwill In- dustries. These are young Filipino boys, most of them graduates of the high schools on the islands, who have come to Beattie to complete their education oither in city high schools or at the University of Washington.
