The incident had been farce un
til this moment, but' I saw a look
of savage protest . flash into the
girl's face, ahc! I understood it be

1 Ifc was time, I knew, for me to
interfere. Man-like, Dicky would
not see that the thing was no
longer a jest until the girl's emo
tional Tcontrol had given away.
Then he would be highly remorse
ful. If the waiter wefe; indeed up
on his way with our dinner., quick
action was-Tieeded. ut it must
also be f arclal, - sa "i; slipped be

fingers on his neck.
"Unhand that women, knave, or
I begin tickling," I said resonant

I think Dicky never was so sur
prised in his life. That he Is ex
ceedingly ticklish, ; I know, from
his own tales, but I never have
verified the truth of his words,
for of all silly, undignified per
formances, tickling either babies
or grownups seems to me the last
word. But he played up beauti
fully, and I think he secretly was
much gratified that I had come "to
the rescue of the situatlonlr

Oh. here's the waiter!" -
The transition to his ordinary
tones as the doorbell sounded
brought a hysterical giggle from
Claire, and I knew the? danger of
an unpleasant scene had 'passed. "
The dinner which Claire had
ordered so lavishly was .wonderful

objections to the needless expense

tiny or large with every single

Jason Lee Church Is
Packed to Hear Sermon
The Jason Lee church was fill
ed almost to its capacity Sunday
morning-, to hear Rev. Atcheson
speak on the subject of "The Sin
and Care, of Backsliding." Deal
ing first with the sin of backslid
ing the minister analysized the
seriousness of having turned
away from a true Friend. To one
who has known Christ .'; nothing
can replace that knowledge. There
is always, a feeling of dissatisfact
ion and;a tug at the heart cords
drawing one back to peace and
rest as attained through compan-

ionship with the great Friend of
friends.
The cure was then considered.
It lies not-iin the fact or making a
public confession and Tesolving to
try again, but in seeking the. face
of a-living God in prayer, confes
sing and forsaking sinf ul .ways
and by being assured in the soli-,
tude of prayer that "the spirit
beareth witness with our spirit
that we . are born -from above,"
and equipped to go forth by faith
in the strength of Christ remem
bering that "He that thinketh he
standeth ' letiiim take heed lest
he falL" , .
At the evening sertice the same
spirit prevailed. Taking as the
text "Ye are not your own, ye are
bought with a price,' the pastor
spoke ixpon the subject of "Why
Every Man Should Be a Christ
ian",. The mesage was gripping
and positive. The attendance be
ing equal to that of the morning
service bespoke well for the suc
cess of the week night services.
