Just as Victoria. took the silver suggr bowl from the sideboard and placed it on the table. the door- bell rang. She went to the door

' expecting Albert, who had been

unforgetful lately and had prob- ably gone off without his key.

The latch of thegtop half of the door was stiff, In that it always took a moment to open it. while she was struggling with the latch, the doorbell pealed again. This struck her as odd; Albert knew about the door.

She swung the upper half open. and a gush of cool night air struck her. Light from the room at her back fell brightly on the face look- ing at her. Beyond it were the dim round shapes of the hanging

Not Albert. Her first husband, sawn Harries. was standing there.

whenever Victoria had thought of sawn during the ten years that followed their divorce, she had thought also of his family and, thinking of them brought two images-the frozen grandeur of crystal chandeliers and the mod- cl of a Yankee clipper ship under a big bell of glass.

The clipper was one of Grand- father Henry's many ships. all un- der glass. I-le collected them. They were his single interest in life be- sides the trust fund. Seeing his spare bright old face peering at her while he explained the rigging

of his favorite model. Victoria felt for the first time what she al- ways felt afterward whenever she entered the great old house-the sense of a splendid and forever vanished past standing is just be- hind her shoulder.

Henry's wife was a handsome old lady who was fond of poetry and travel. sawn was the only grandchild. of their two daugh- ters. Only sawn's mother had had, 3 child. She had married a bril- iiant young engineer upon whose vitality and grasp of life she had

.come to depend utterly by the

time he died in a railroad acci- dent. she had killed herself a year later. when sawn was six. She was spoloen of often by the old people, but in such a euphemistlc way that only through sawn himself had Victoria learned that his mother had taken her own life. Victoria got the feel of a dead woman in whom the old strength had run so thin that one disaster had been too much. Great quiet rooms and Henry's ship models and finishing school had not pre- pared her for what life had final- ly Riven. so her room. re odeled. had become sawn's. Aro d the mirror where 'her cotilllon favors had hung, his triangular felt pennants yflaunted themselves.

In the early and grim days of the nineteen-thirties, the calm selfishness of these people of Sawn's irrltatedl and amused Vic- toria. She -sat at dinner parties made up of old friends and dis- tant relations, and nothing of the present ever entered there. For all of them it was pleasant times now gone which formed the has- is of all conversation, and their talk was like the turning pages of a. snapshot album filled with views and faces distant in time. Once, when Victoria introduced the subject of a strike which was filling the newspapers. there was a profound silence. Then Aunt Jessie spoke of them all when she said, reasonably and gently, "These people don't know what real tragedy is. The limited scope of their lives makes them regard such matters as hours and wages as important.” The butler poured the wine, the heads nodded' a'nd the light from the candles was re- flected in the hanging tears of the chandlier above the long table with its damask cloth.

sawn. however, was of another generation. In college he learned enough to see for the first time the tragic contrasts of the system of which his family was one pro- duct and the striking miners another. He went through a per- iod of ruthless bittdrness which caused his people much suffering, and was once nearly Jailed for hitting a policeman in 4 the eye during a. Communist demonstra- tion in New York. By the time Victoria met him he was a thin young man in full swing of revolt against his people and what they stood for. He was living in 3, small dark apartment in lower New York. He had finished his educa- tion and was determined to make his living as a writer. l-le had sold three pulp stories, at one cent a word. l-le was writing a. novel about the scion of a wealthy New lmgland family who revolts against ,the environment in which he was born and throws his lot in with the workers of the world. In Cirenwlch Village at that time there were not more than three other yolmg men Writing this same story. His income from the trust fund was then about.' 55,000 I VERY.

During their marriage Victoria learned to know him rather well. His trouble was that he really wanted, intensely wa.rite'di, to spit in the collective eye of his family and tell them what they could do with their money. But something else in him prevented this. some native caution. some fear of his own ability to grapple any more suctnssfully with a hard world than his mother had grappled. He was in the hands of the past. and half knew it. even while .he de- sired to escape those clutching fingers and live what he believed. Never admitting this, he tried to make words substitute for the, de-

mlnd saw as the proper course. I-le built up a fence of words against the uneasy prowling thought that he was living on the accretions of dead men. Victoria saw no ree- life- line and throw himself on the mercy of an economic system not friendly to young writers. All she wanted was for him to face the situation squarely. For his troubl-

The guest speaker was Mrs. Fred Osborne. Mrs. 0sborne'gave a. very interesting and instructive ad ess on the work of Dr. Gren- fel and the obstacles he encount- ered. t

The accompanlsts for the evening were Mrs. l-Ieber MacPhell and Mrs. CvordoncMacMlllan. Deacon I-leber MacPhail closed the meeting with the Benediction.

But the series of increasingly bitter arguments which reached their climax on the night she left him began over a trifling matter -Sawn's preference for low and noisome bars. Due bills to gay eating places were one of, the pre- requisites of Victoria's editing job. sawn scorned such decadent play spots of the economically fortun- ate, and would insist on going 10

a hole in the wall infestod by cockroaches, cocottes and cab drivers, where his fondness for

liquor was apt to make their even- lng's bill rather high. Not only did such places depress Victoria but the financial aspect of the matter annoyed her. She saw in this repeated gesture of Sawn's another futile effort to escape the overly dramatic demands of his own youthful conscience. and she finally taxed him with his elabor- ate self-deception.

Cl-IARLOITTETOWN ' Let There Be Lights

By contributing to the Canadian National Institute for the Blind. Prince Edward Islanders will en- nblc the blind to help themselves. More than that such a contribu- tion might prove to be a measure of self-help to the donor.

The services of the Institute in Charlottetown quite oonceivably might be of benefit to any one of us. The prevention of blindness programme is an important acti- vity of the Institute here. Up to 50 per cent of blindness is pre- ventable. Through the Irutltute's prevention programme it is striv- ing to decreasevthe incidence of blindness in the children and grownups of Prince Edward Is- land.

That is one among many rea- sons why there should be no hes- itancy in making a donation to the campaign for 56,200.00 to support the Institute work in Prince Ed- ward Island. The 160 blind per- sons now registered in Prince Ed- ward Island benefit by the Insti- tulc's free library, free home tezlching of handicrafts, Braille reading and writing instruction and the employment it finds for them. '

At present several blind Prince Edward Island men and women have full-time employment through the Institutes employment ser- vice and others have parttime work in their homes. This is a cause of genuine concern to all of us. 'I'he economic gain to the com- munity through helping the blind to have a normal place in the life of the community, is something that benefits those with sight as well as the blind themselves.

Mrs. Elmer Frizzell; Long Creek, Ted Stretch.

The resolutions are as follows:

Be it resolved:--

1. That leadership training class- es for Sunday School teachers during the coming year be organ- ized.

2. That each Sunday School con- duct a chiu'ch vacation school next summer if at all possible.

3. That (i) temperance instruc- tion be given in Sunday Schools regularly; (2) making wide use of the National Temperance Study course provided by the W.C.T.U.; (3) full use be made of pledge cards. especially at the intermedi- ate and senior level.
