Or, if you‘d rather, you can sever your contract with me by cut- ting oft‘ your hair, or developing ‘a squint." Rosemary said nothing. She had in spite of herself become accus- tomed to the luxury with which Grenoble had surrounded her. And she would not have been human if she had not bccn pleased at the tri- butes to her beauty she had rccciv- ed, though her feeling that she, was betraying her ideals of art was sin- ccre. Grenoble, sci-ing sold shrewdly: “Don't make yourself unhappy, child. The way to fame is often a road paved by broken ideals. You can act, I‘ll admit that sincerely. Your playing of that Cockney boy in Layton's playct was a little gem. But I've met a dozen people who can act, out of hundreds who thought they could, and only once in all my experience of beauties have I come upon hair and cycs andskin like yours. They're things to dream of, and I'll set the whole civilized world dreaming of them hcr hesitation, ‘r if you'll only do as I direct." S‘ Rosemary had only half listcncd to Grenoblds speech. Through hcr mind had been running the. mem- ory of the dreadful months after her father's death, when she had been thrown out alone to wander desperately from one agent's oflicc to another. What good had her ability to act done her then? There had been comments on hcr beauty. Some of them it sickened her to remember. She had had weeks without enough to cat, when at last Layton had engaged her. "All right, I'll carry on," she said, "and truly, truly, I'm grateful for all this." Rosemary indicated the dainty drawing-room, with its panels of pale blue satin painted with sprays of peach blossom. “You didn't know it, but I hadn't a penny when I went to see you that morning." Grenoble did not seem surprised by the news. He knew the precar- lousness of Rosemary's profession even better than Rosemary did. He smiled the attractive smile he could assume at times, and changed the subject. , "Well, your future ls rosy now, anyway," he said. “By the way, you're the second of my people I've seen since the notices of last night appeared. Monclziir didn't wait for me to call on hcr. She was in my ofiico at eleven this morning in a fearful temper. she's torn up her contract." ' "Have you lost hcr?" cried Rosc- mary, genuinely concerned. ' "Heavens, not child,’ returned Grenoble. "Tearing up a contract is only a gesture. It's magnificent, but it's not English. Dolores merely wanted to infer that she disapprov- ed of you." "Why? I-iave I done something t0 offend hcr?" asked Rosemary. "I knew of course that she didn't want, you to engage me, especially since she had overheard you say uncom- plimcntary things about hcr to me, but after all, you have to have more than one woman in your casts.

It was hard to believe, but it seem- ed that Rosemary really was us in- nocent as that. Aftcr nil, he reflect- ed, hcrs had been thc most unusual life he had known in the theatre. She had had more artistic exper- ience than most actresses twice her age, but it had been gained under the careful protection of n fntlzci- who fctl hcr with dreams and kept her from all ordinary contacts. by some subtle lighting device from i Stubborn Coughs Ended by Recipe, Mixeigt Home Saves”.

Such inexperience of reality might have been fatal to her after she had been thrown out alone into the rough and tumble world of the theatre, but, except for some months of hardship, and a few weeks‘ work with Layton, she evid- ently not yet had time for the pet- tiness and jealousies of others to penetrate her rampart dreams. Grenoble, as he considered ‘her, ex- perienced a new feeling. It was a sort of protecting tenderness for the girl before him. He had pretended such a fatherly attitude more than once. But this time it was sincere, and it was good lo feel it. "You're safe with me, my dear,“ he said, unexpectedly, and as Rose- mary looked up at him inquiringly, he made a-gesture that was "almost appealing. ‘Tm glad you never thought you weren't. You arc best here. I don't like to think what might happen to you lf you had to fight your u'ny—you with those trusting cycs unri that beauty you don't sccm crcn yct to realise. As for Dolores, she doesn't matter. She'll play out the run of this piece, and then she can does she likes. I'.'l keep hcr away from you if 1 can." Grenoble had a visitor that after- noon. It was a young man who rushed upon him with agony in his eyes, still wearing the dress clothes he had put on for the opening of “Shower o‘ Gold" the night before. Anthony had gone to sec the revue in spite of himself. He had feared what he might see but it was impossible for him to keep away from where he knew he should sec itiarigold. so, from a stall which he had obtained with infinite diffi- culty and much more money than he could afford, he had watched tho exhibition of the girl of his dreams before thousands of elves.

YEAR'S PEACE PROGRAM IS PLANNED BY WOMEN WASHINGTON, Feb. 3—(A.

All her camps.‘ i- ing career-that 43 years now- Mrs. Catt has been mapping dis- cussion forums, and she pronoun- ces this "week's peace program "the best I have ever made." i Speakers at the opening session today of the eighth annual- con- ferencc on the "cause and cure of wnr" were Miss Mary E. Woolley. only American woman delegate to the Geneva arms parley; James G. McDonald, chairman of the for- eign policy association of the con- ference, and Professor James T. Shotwcll, of the Carnegk Endow- ment for International Peace. Definite are the results that Mrs Catt works for, and expects actual- ly [o occur, that the United States will join the world court this year; "that world peace will arrive within a century. ' She says that having experienced the actuality of victory in the long suffrage battle. sht- knows the “feel" of a progrcssing cause as it conquers prejud'ces, little by lit- tle." At '74. she still so dominates her cause~it has been peace ever since suffrage was tron-that her followers won't permit her to re- main "retired" under the title of “honorary chalnnan."

Only for our befuddled brains it would not be permitted. A clear ‘headed nation would surely throw i; off. 100k at some of the figures. , ' I Great Britain's Drink Bill for 1931 was 260,000,000 pounds, or roughly $i,250,000,000. Great Bri- tain's War‘ Debt to the United States, of which we hear so much, a debt she will be paying for the next 62 years, for over two gene- rafons, at the rate of half a mil- lion dollars a day, amounted in a lump sum to $4,600,009,000 in De- cembrr, 1922. Since that time Great Britain has alone drunk up this debt three times over. she drinks up her war debt to the United Stairs in about three and a half years. It sounds incredible, but nevcrthelaas it is too terribly true. In 1931, the lowest in recent years, ft meant an average expen- diture per head ovcr the entire population of more than $2500.

Canada's Drink Bill for 1929- 30 Wfls over $190,000,000 and ‘for 1930-31 it was over $173,000,000, all sold legally, and not including! the large sales of smugglers and boot-loggers stuff. Compare this with the provincial revenues. ‘Th? l Canada Year Book states that the total ordinary revenue of the nine provinces for 1929 was $183,598,024. Roughly we Canadians spend as much 0n drink as 0n all our pro- vincial government services. It sounds incredible. It suggests a sort of national insanity. Let us take another striking illustration of the enormity of our Drink Burden.

The sincere sympathy of the ommunity goes out to the bereaved family and relatives of the late Mrs, Cahoon.

Very little snow fell, and a little rain which helped conditions. aides were extremely high on Friday and Saturday. and in places ice was washed up on the highways. - The funeral of the isle Miss E. Gordon, daughter of the late Mr. Robert Gordon, was held from the Uilitcfl Church on Saturday, Janu- ary 28th. Inclement weather Ind bed roads prevented mill!‘ frilnfl from attending the funeral. The sympathy of the community is with the bereaved family in their hour of sadness. On January 29th, _the morning service at the United Church. Mur- ray Harbor, was not well attended because of the storm. Hymns from the Hymnary were sung by the few who braved the elements, and the Reverend T. R. Goudge read for the old Testament lesson from the 31st chapter of Jeremiah. A splendid children's story was told, and the new Testament reading was from St. Luke's Gospel, Chapter 18. The text of the splendid address was Jeremiah 31 and verse 3. Those who braved the storm were well paid ' for their zeal. On the evening of January 25th at the home of Mr. Will.
