In h e r a rm s she held a dim inutive gulnen pig. and the way she hugged it close dem onstrated her love fo r It. “T H E SALVATION ARMY," she spelled o u t a n d thoughtfully consid ered It. “ Everybody Is welcom e here,” she read slowly. T h a t m eant th a t anyone could e n te r tf he w anted to, she de cided. and a s Tonntbel Devon did w ant to go In, she softly tiptoed up the ste p s and peeped Into the room.

She hugged th e ptg closer, bent her head and kissed the top o f Its ear. "I guess w e're In a church. Onssl«," she said aloud, "and you m u stn 't grunt or squeal like you do on the D irty lla ry . I t ’s aw ful nice and q u ie t a in ’t It, honey?” "W ere you speaking to m e?" said a voice from n e a r th e door. Tonntbel Devon struggled to her feet, tu rn ed around nnd saw a young m an looking a t her. A flam e of red rushed over the tanned skin, but be cause he w as sm iling and kindly, she sm iled back, a dim ple coming to life a t each c orner of h e r m outh. "N ope," she flung out In confusion. "I w as ta lk in ’ to G ussle-PIglet here. Mehhe her and me h a d n 't ought to he here. You can kick us out If you w ant to." P hilip M acCanley, the cap tain of the Salvation arm y In Ithaca, bowed, and th en he laughed. "E very one Is welcom e here," he quoted, com ing forw ard. "W here'd you come from ? I've never seen you before." “ Pm stay in g np Hoghole w ay," re plied Tony. "I a in 't been around Ith a c a long. T h is Is an aw ful nice room, a in 't It, huh?" "Yes, very.

So unusual had been h e r answ er th a t P h ilip M acCauley gazed a t h e r In am azem ent. "H av e you ever heard of—of God?" he asked Anally, his own confusion ap p aren t tn the stum ble of his tongue. Tonnlbel laughed. "I h e a r God d—n m ore’n a hundred tim es a day," she replied. "Is th a t w hat you m ean?" "N ot quite," answ ered Philip, s ta r tled. "N o! Not th at." 'T h e n w hat?" dem anded Tony. "W h at kind of a God do you m ean?” “O ne th a t Is good," explained P h il ip. “T h ere Isn't any God but th e one who helps—” “ Sly m umm y?" b re ath ed th e girl, m isty te a rs shadow ing her eyes. “Yes.” "W here Is he. then?"

"In fa c t th ere Isn't any place w here God Is not.” “ H e w ouldn't come In a d irty canal boat, would H e?” dem anded Tony, breathlessly. A stonished a t such crudeness. C ap tain M acCauley shifted him self about so he faced her squarely. W as It pre tended Ignorance or Innocence In the searching gray eyes? T hen he decided T o n y , ju s t Tonnlbel,” she mumbled. T hen her voice rose and she u tte red sharply. "Now tell me how to help my m other." Philip w ent to the a lta r and sorted out a sm all card. “T h is,” he said, coming back to her, "haa happy, loving thoughts w ritten on It. If you think th ese things all tbe tim e— oh, bow they will help both you and your m other." W onderingly she took It In h e r fingers. T he first th in g th a t m et h e r eyes w as a beautiful uplifted face of a m an and In his arm s w as a little lamb. U nderneath th e pictu re w as p rinted, "F eed my sheep." and directly un d er th a t w ere th e words, "S tand still and see th e salvation of th e Lord.” Once m ore her eyes sought the face above, a face w herein lay all the pity and love In th e world. T ony Devon caught a glim pse of the lesson he w as try in g to teach, and w hen she w ent out of th e Salvation arm y hall abe held w ithin th e depths of h e r a w onderfully new and u tte rly stra n g e emotion.

"D id you see anything of y our daddy?” "Nope, and I squinted In every beer hole In Ith ac a,” Tony replied, “b u t— but—but I found out som ething fo r you. L isten !

She shivered, fe arin g th a t th e law lay In w ait for h e r absent husband. “Who, b ra t? ” she repeated Im plor ingly.

"S it a m inute w hile th e te a 's m a tin ' good, and 1'U tell you." Side by side they sa t together on the bunk w hile w ith towered reverent voice the girl told th e story of the Shepherd who had said long ago w ith Infinite pity, "F eed my sheep." “And m umm y.” th e g’.rl continued, leaning her head against h e r m other'« arm .
