The situation simply had not arisen. No doubt, she thought wryly. be was after all just another earn. est young foreigner interested in polishing up his English small talk. . . . Thrifty people, these Germans. For after a month of almost constant companionship, she knew little more about Stephan than she had guessed in the. beginning. She did know that he could laugh and kick up his heels as irresponsibly as any American boy of 24 or 25; that he was sur prisingly well informed on a va riety of subjects; that he had an insatiable curiosity about Ameri. can institutions; and that he was amazed and enraptured by Amer ican slang, which he used con stantly often with devastatingly comic effect. . . . When he and Angle chanced to meet, he hung upon her words with the breath. less reverence of a disciple in the presence of a great master. Yet under- his almost reckless gaiety, his enthusiasm about all sorts of queer things, and an un failing courtesy and consideration beyond his years, Deborah kept stumbling upon unexpected walls of reserve, as if, beneath the light hearted boy he seemed to be, there were another man older, harder, perhaps even a little ruthless. TT was late in the term when she first began to guess where all this was leading her. That was the day when Stenhan was late to class. It was not until she saw Angela's eyes watching her with veiled amusement across the seminar table and the page in ner own notebook, inscribed only with meaningless doodling instead of Doctor Brooks' trench ant comments on King Lear that she realized how feverishly all ner attention had Been centered upon the door through which, at any moment now, Stephan ought to come. When after an interminable am. the door opened, and he did come in, she found herself caught up in a wave of relief so warm and glad that she could only think confusedly: What has happened to me? . . . I mustn't let it matter so much just that he is here, sitting beside me. After all, I shall probably never see him again after this spring. ... I never intended it to mean so much as this. It was that night, while De borah, comfortable in pajamas and mules, was putting the finish ing touches to a term paper, that Angle came in from an evening at the movies. She sat down on Deborah's bed without removing her hat. "How was the picture?" De borah asked absently. "Oh, just another 'Boy-Meets-Girl,'" Angle said, she yawned, and added with elaborate casual ness, "But there was a news reel that might have interested you." Deborah glanced up, startled. Angela's eyes were fastened upon her face with that wide, innocent attention from which Deborah had learned to expect the worst. An gela, obviously, was bursting with news and all of it bad. "Yes?" Deborah got up, and going to the dressing-table, picked up a jar of cleansing cream, wondering why her fingers were suddenly cold and trembling. "Remember," Angle was going on, "that Bund meeting that was broken up by a riot last week? . . . Well, they showed a picture of that just before the police came. And who do you suppose was there, right in line with the camera?" "It couldn't have been handsome Adolf, in person, I suppose?" she was able to ask lightly. "No? AU rtght-I'll bite."

Every day makes its demands upon us for higher proofs rather than profes sion of Christian power. These proofs consist solely inthe destruc tion of sin, sickness and death by the power of Spirit, as Jesus de stroyed them" (p. 232).
