JULY 213 1930. ft Iff h" Bifocal PRESBYTERIAN i Glasses SYNOD -"ENJOYSj 5FLUIAL OUIINb Btmjninin Franklin, who first contri ved bifocal glasses to save himself the! trouble and inconven ience of changing from one pair to another: Such a busy person as he was, again found necessity to be the mother of inven tion. So he' devised a jiair of spectacles with the upper half holding his distance glasses and t he lower section his rending glasses. They were crude, to be sure, but they func tioned on all occasions from that time on. Since Franklin's time many improvements have been made and modern bifocals now defy detec tion. In addition to this thev are so constructed that the eye is no longer contused by the change from looking through the rending lens to the dis tance one. ' Bifocal glassws are a wonderful convenience for those who cannot see at a distance and read or work with a single pair of glasses.- ; Bifocals provide great er freedom from strain than separate glasses for reading and distant Vis ion and are-much better than wearing glasses for close work only. When Bifocal glasses are first worn it is neces sary to remember that they have the effect of wearing two different pairs of lenses. The up per and larger portion of the lens is to be used when looking at any ob ject, more than 3.0 inches away. The lower section, placed where the eye nat urally turns when one is reading, is to be used. for all close work. At first it .may be necessary for you to hold your chin up slightly when reading and lower your chin when going downstairs, or look , ing at an object close to -your teet. lint it takes only a few days to adjust your hab its so that you will in stantly shift to Ihe cor rcct portion of the lenses and to the correct po sition, as the occasion d e m a n d s. Evcrv per son who needs reading glasses will find much comfort with bifocals with none of the incon venienco ol: .car r y l n g around two separate pairs of glasses. Your optometrist ' will be glad to advise von as to whether you need bi focals or not. Rights Reserved.

Chapter 32 AT TEN MINUTES OF TWO THEME were clear skies for the wedding. The Leslie household was astir much earlier than usual, with everrane from the maids to Dr. Leslie himself assisting In dual preparations for the cere, niony nt two o'clock. Hitndles and Jiggs, which were not the Riven names of Mary Lou's two younger Bisters, were far more excited ahout the affair than the bride-to-be herself. Mary Lou, however, had been awake most of the night, hut it was not because she was too happy to -deep. Her mind still was filled with troubled thoughts. Finally (he resolved to let fate run Its :nurHo for there was nothing else i(j (In. "I think 1 could have borne this irdoal bettor if It bad rained," she i.hctight, as the sun began to shine )i'lgbtly. "If you'ro uuhuppy, a line lay seems to make things worse '. though tho weather were mock ng you." Ki pulled herself out of bed, uid curled up on a low bench by 'he window, her feet tucked under lor, and her chin in her hands "I suppose I'll accept Brynmor n time," sho mused. "I accept lilngs fairly easily. Perhaps the line will come when I will go so or as to wonder whether 1 ever .vus In lovo with Tony Titberlng- 011. "Still thoro's no excuse for me. vloiloni girls don't murry the .vrong mail. If you marry the vrong mull those days, It's ynur iwn fault.

Yet, when I'm iltl and groy, I probably won't care ny longer ..." Jay enme In with a cup of tea 'or hor. She woro the black silk ; I mono wit h the scarlet embrold ry. Tho sight of It gave Mary l.ou a twlngo of pain. She Ilrst had loon Jay In that kimono tho night iMor tltn hnlh-tiil) episode In Tony's Hilt. "How's tho little bride?" smiled '.iy. settling herself on one end f Mni y Lou's bod. Mary 'Lou shaded her face from he sunlight. "Oh, Jimt glowing with hnpnl osh und all that sort ot thing." Jay caught the snrcastlc tone of it remark, us Jay always sensed lie meaning ot things. "This Is going to he nn awful Innco." she thought. "Why Is sho lolng II' 1 wish Jorry were hero. Ian helpful nbo.it things llko his." "Iiolt hero, Mury Lou," she snld ilond. "If you Tool that way ahout why do you go abend? It's not no late, you know." Mary Lou replied with a faint mile of Irony. "Daddy would have to pny for lie wedding breakfast anyhow, so n mny ns well eat it Besides." lie ndded, "aren't you being rnthor nillinnntnl nil of a sudden?" Jay almost upset her tea. "Sentimental? Me sentlmen il!" "Certainly you are," Mury Lou .Ininnlsboil hor. "It you woron't iiu'd know It Is bolter for n girl marry niiyone than to bo nn old mid." "On the other hand." Jay conn ired " Hrynmor Just nnyonc?" Mury Loll didn't reply. She eat loHonless, staring mtt of the win ow. Presently sho reached for a iwol. "I'm Rolng to toko a bath. See nu nnou." Jay wob left alone, hor question nnnswered. Later In the morning .Jay tried linve another word with Mnry on, but there was no time for ar nment. "Just forgt It, Jny," was Mary mi's parting comment. Sho con hided It was too delicate a mat ir to broach ngnlu at that stage f tho proceedings. Shortly nfter noon evoryone ex lt Mary Lou and Jay left for Ihe lurch. Mary Ikui had Insisted mt they allow her nl lesst an hnnr peuce In which to dress. Jay ss so busy with lnstmlnlite Hugos In Mnry Ion's gown that they scarcely said a word fo each other. And neither Beemed eager to talk ... . By ten minutes ot two the little church was packed to overflowing. It was an old edifice, with a Nor man font and a Gothic steeple, that sat cozlly on a hillside, with small shops and houses cuddled on either side. The beil rang lustily as the sex ton tugged at the rope. Inside, sun light fell through stained glass windows. Dresses rustled, and beads turned as each new member of the bride's family appeared. Colonel Whlttamore, nervously , pulling at his short grey, mustache, , sat stiff and soldierly beside Mary Lou's aunt. He was thankful that the girl's family appeared to be a . decent, respectable crowd. What a blessing It bad been, he thought, , that he had managed to steer Brynmor clear of that red-headed dancing girl. Bundles and jiggs. eagerly await ing their sister's appearance, clutched tremulously at their bridesmaids' bouquets and giggled to themselves. Their eyes were craning down the hot, dusty road for the first glimpse ot the taxl'that was to bring Mnry Lou and Jay to the church. Brynmor and his best man, a fel low named Tomson, already were In the vestry. Brynmor looked unusually hand' some In his morning coat,' with dark grey striped trousers and a top hat. Tomson tried 'to Interest him in the latest stories circuit ing In the stock exchange, but Brynmor wasn't listening.' IIu fidgeted with the white car nation In his buttonhole, und In terruptcd Tomson's chatter every minute or two to Inquire It he still had the ring. . , . Outside, by the church steps. Dr. Leslie shifted uncomfortably from one foot to the other, Uvery few minutes he wiped his brow with n silk handkerchief. Prlvntely he considered this worse than nny op oration he ever performed. Ills frock coat, which first Was worn at his own wedding, was too tlchl across the shoulders, nnd he was unpleasantly aware ot It. Ho glanced Irritably toward Bun dies and Jiggs, and sighed audibly. They were lain Inst two unmarried daughters. What a pity nil his children weren't sons! Where Is Mnry Lou? At that moment, outside the I .on Ho home, Mary Lou was standing by the side of a taxi staring up Into the sky. She was a study In white, nnd gold. Hor white bridal gown, ot soft flounced chiffon, wus a rather unusual choice, but It sillied' the frnll, dainty brldo. It was an brlgl nnl gown that Jny had designed for hor. Her blond hair shone through her long tulle veil. She woro a golden girdle, gulden slippers. Jny, ultra-smart In grey geor gette urged her to get Into tho cab. , "Buck up, sweetheart. You'll be lato. Hop in and we'll bo there in a jiffy. It's almost two o'clock now." Mnry Lou shook her head nnd wot her lips. "Not yet," "What are you looking for?" do ninndod Jny. Thon she. too. looked up ns Mary Lou suddenly pointed. "Look, Jny! See! He's come, just ns he promised ho would!" There was Ony Olrl, circling In tho clouds almost directly over them. The plane seemed to be coming lowor. "Oh. Jny, wasn't that grand nt him?" Mnry Lou's shout carried a triumphant ring. Jny begnn to cry. She wns un able to keop back the tears. Now she knew and there was nothing to be dono nbout II. Ony Girl begnn to circle ovor a neighboring field. The machine now was much lower, and the sil ver colorod wings gleamed In the sunlight Just as they had shone that morning when sho took off from Croydon. Jny remembered that scene poignantly. She reached for Mary Lou's hand. Oh, Jay! Look now!" Mnrv lou's voice was choked. Sure enough, Tony was sky writing. Letters were formed by the smoke. They took shape, wnv orcd In the wind, blew Into elon nted forms and slowly dissolved. Tho message was typically Tony's. They rend the letters us they wore formed, one by one: O II E R I , , , , Tho "O" had Just started to forth when the plane gnve a sudden lurch upward.
