GIRL ONE COULD WISH T0 KNOW

Jamaica all winter the guest of her aunt, Mrs lcwlslllmery, Jr., had the honor of being invited by the Duke and Duchess of Kent for 1 ‘- at “Sunset Lodge‘ where they have been spending their honeymoon. “Sunset Lodge" is the attractive bungalow which its chatelaine, Mrs. lilmery put-with its staff of servants-at the‘ com- mand of the Royal couple.

Writing to her mother, in Port Hope, Miss Forrest describes the Duchess of Kent as "extremely beautiful and wonderfully charm- lng-just the sweet/est girl one could wish to know." Of the Duke of Kent she said: “He is tall and fair, has curly hair and blue eyes and not stiltcd. as his pictures seem to make him." They made her very much at home, said this young wo- man who was called to the Bar in September last, and will upon her return ,take up the practice of law.

COUNTRY COURTESY

In order to preserve the amenit- ies of the countryside in England,

patrols are to be organized thisl

year by the Council for the Pre- servation of Rural England. The duty of the Countryside Wardens, as they are termed, will be to persuade, educate and help the public to keep the various rural resorts unspoilt. The Wardens will be volunteers and will work in co- operation with a number of other organizations.

Jvfainly, the duties of the patrols will be of an educative clulracter and it is hoped to attain the desired object by persuading the public to observe a courtesy code. This in- cludes, among other requests, the followling:

Please close gates.

Dont injure fences belonging to others.

"Of course, you dived in to save her,” murmured a sweet young thing. ~

Along the home stretch-sixth round-Mussels was leading, next him Bell-Hill‘.

As they whirled by, Esther saw Ben-Hark face-whiter than before.

Si-monides said to Ilderlni: “I am no judge, good sheik, lf Bcn-Hur be not about to execute some design. His face hath that look."

- All the spectators rew a long breath, for the beginning of the end was at hand. The Sidonian, Byzan- tine and Corinthian made final ef- forts but were practically out of the race. Thereupon. with a readiness perfectly explicabie, all the factions in the crowd except the Roman

From the benches above him as he Passed, the favor descended in fierce mill-notions.

“Speed thee, Jew!"

"rakg the wall, now!"

"Let him not have the turn on thee again..Now or never!"

Either he did not hear or could do not better, for half-way round the course and he was still follow- lna; at the second even still no change.

And now, to make the turn Mes- sala began to draw in on his left- hand steeds, an act which necessar- ily slackened their speed. His spirit was high; more than one sitar was richer of his vows; the Roman genius was still president.

On the three Pillars marking the final goal, only six hundred feet away, were fame, fortune’ and u fut- ure ineflably sweetened by hate, all in store for him.

That moment. Mailuch, in the Eallery, saw Ben-l-lur lcan forward over his Arabs and give them the reins. Out flew the many-folded whip in the driver's hand; over the backs of the startled steeds it writhed and hissed; and though it fell not, there were both sting and menace in its quick report.

And as the man passed thus from quiet to reslstless action, his face suffused, his eyes gleaming, along the reins he seemed to flash his will; and instantly, not one, but the four Arabians as one, answered with a leap that landed them alongside the Romans car. . Messala, on the periolous edge of the tum, heard but dared not look to see what awakening portended. From the people he received no sign. Above the noises of the race there was one voice and that was Ben-Hurt

fear. Presently, out of the turmoil, the fighting of horses, the resound of blows, the murky cloud of dust and sand, he crawled, in time to see the Corinthian and the Byzantine go on down the course after Ben-Hur, who had not been in instant delayed. The people leaped upon the benches and shouted and screamq ed. Some caught glimpses of Mes-

t-he fours, now under abandoned cars. He was still; they thought him dead.

But far the greater number fol- lowed Ben-Hur in his career. They had not seen the cunning touch of thg reins by which, turning a little to the left, he caught Messalafs wheel with the iron-shod point nf his axle, and crushed it; but they had seen transformation of the mun and felt the glow of his spirit, and the maddening energy with which ho suddenly inspired his Arabs.

Except for the lumbering chariot, it seemed that the four were flying.

When the Byzantine and the Cor- inthian were half way down the course Hen-Bur turned the first goal. -

And the race was won!
