"It'll be a good thing for you If she

Iouglas' quick ear caught an unpleas
ant meaning In his tone.
"Whnf's that?" the pastor asked In a
low. steady voire.
"We don't like some of the things
that are ftoln' on here, and 1 want to
talk to yon about 'em."
"Very well, but see If you can't talk
In a lower key."
"Never mind about the key!" shout
ed Strong angrily.
"But I do mind." Something in his
eyes made the deacon lower his voice.
"We want to know how much longer
that girl Is goln' tn stay hpre."
"Indeed! And why?" The color was
leaving Douglas' face and his Jaw waa
becoming very square.
"Because she's been here long
enough."
"1 don't agree with you there."
"Well, It don't make no difference
whether you do or not. She's got to
go."
Go?" echoed Douglas.
Yes, slr--foob. We've made up our
minds to tbut"
"And who do you mean by 'we?' "
"The members of this congregation,"
replied Strong Impatiently.
"Am 1 to understand that you are
6peaking for them?" There was a
deep frown between the young pas
tor's eyes. He was beginning to be
perplexed.
Yes. and as deacon of this church."
Then as deacon of this church you
tell th congregation for me that that
is my affair."
"Your affair." shouted Strong, "when
that girl Is livln under the church s
roof, entin' the church's bread!"
".Tint one moment! You don't quite

church, and for that position 1 receive

here are my guests and not guests of
the church. Remember that, please."
There was an embarrassing silence.
The deacons recalled that the pastor's
salary was slightly in arrears. Elver
son coughed meekly. Strong started.
"Ycu keep out of this. Elverson!" he
cried. "I'm rtinnln' this affair, and I

"I shall endeavor to do my duty as

away and dismissing the matter.
"Your duty Is to your church." thun
dered Strong.
"You're right about that. Deacon
Strong." answered Douglas, wheeling
about sharply, "and my duty to the
church Is reason enough for my acting
exactly as I am doing In this case."
'"Is your duty to the church the only
reason you keep that girl here?"
No; there are other reasons."
I thought so."
