Chapter 25 , '': THE BLOW FALL8 rAVID bad lUe fancy to go to the party as tlie ghost ot Charles the First, la black hose and velvet doublet, and curled black wig, a Jugged scarlet line breaking tho livid paleness of his face and throat. "David Frost you are too awful! Don't you dare come near me," urled a small yellow-haired pixie. "JuBt as you say," answered Da vid, snatched the plilo from ber partner and whirled ber Into the midst of the dancing throng. Fanny had been counting all the way out on that first dance with Da vid. They dancod beautifully to gether and It bod been long weeks since they had hsd the opportunity. Held close In David's arms, swaying in perfect unison, perhaps be would whisper an endearment that would make a, rift In ber, dreadful depres sion,' heal the ache in ber. heart But be was dancing with soma one else. The yellow-haired plzle Charlotte Sturdevant was young and gay and light-hearted; she kept making faces at David, pretending to want to get away from blm. And David was laughing, . Emily Bennett always did every thing beautifully and her Hallowe'en party was so exception. Because ot its distance from town the old place boasted no such modern con veniences as gas and electricity. Tonight Emily bad lighted the up stairs and down with a myriad of wax candles. Great log fires blazed In, every' room; yellow and white chrysanthemums . were . on every mantelpiece; the orchestra bad been specially imported from Philadel phia; the punch was brewed from an old family recipe; there was un limited champagne at supper. , Fanny, was never long alone at a' party. A 'ghost and a skeleton competed tor her favors, and Fanny linked arms and danced with them both. Atterward It was told and retold and told again that Fanny Frost had never been In hotter form than eh was that night. She danced at It she were a very fountain of rhythm,-' laughed constantly, was witty snd'gay, flirted outrageously, look;, the baton front the. orchestra leader and conducted a number, did an. exhibition tango with Al Storer. When David looked for Fanny lat er, as ha did half a dozen times, she was dancing or waa engaged three or lour dances ahead. She had sup per on the stairs in the midst ot a laughing chattering group; there was no. room tor David. . . Not long atterward some one sug gested stroll In thi park. iTour set out David, Helen Alderson, Ralph Grander and Sue Peahody. David' was. too engrossed with Hel en to notice that Fanny was stand ing In the ball looking after blm. (Perhaps he bad forgotten that that morning he bad. planned with Fan ny, to slip away and show her the park by moonlight.) Ralph wore a skeleton suit and his thin shoes war soon wet by the dew. lie and Hue turned back. . , Helen and David wont on. Tempt ed, by the beauty ot the ulght, the succession ot lovely vistas that lured them ahead at every turning they walkod for miles and mllos. When they got back It was after 3 and the party was breaking up. No one had seen Fanny recftntly her wrap was missing. Emily Bennett was almost certain Fanny had left with the Sidney Phllbricks. , A l!''.V shamefaced, a little sulky, llivid drove home alone. . . , Hack at tho house he found no slim ot Fanny. He telephoned the I'lillhrlcks; Fanny wu not there; I lie last they bad seen ot her she was dsnclng. . Kmlly Dennett had no telephone David made the long drive hack to Bennett Park far fusler than the law allowed; the hulls' was In utter dnrknesa. David ; tinned his car mid went home aeulu.

Sunday 10 to 12 by MATEEL HOWE FARNHAM homo; undoubtedly they bad passed, on the way. When he got within sight ot his mother's homo ' he saw that the downstairs was ablaze with lights, and for the first time a premonition ot disaster seized him. Scarcely waiting to turn off his engine he dashed up the front steps. The front door knob turned In his band Leona, the cook, had been watch ing for him, but she gave him no greeting. In the library were his mother, his Cousin Emmeline Brownbeclr, Leila, Edward Pbilbrick, Cousin Louisa and ber husband. Leila was huddled In a chair crying, the oth ers grouped about bor. Cousin Em meline bad her band on her shoul der. His mother stood a little aloof by the mantelpiece, a sibyl rf gloom In ber long dark dressing gown. David bad heard raised voices a mo ment before, but as he came In the door there was a stark strident si lence. They all looked at blm even Leila stopped crying to stare at him. "What Is it? Where's Fanny? What has happened to Fanny?" They glanced uncomfortably at one another. Edward Pbilbrick cleared bis throat. "They're gone," Leila burnt out; "they've gone off together. Bob tel ephoned. Ho said . , ." "But Fanny where is Fanny?" David's mother came forward and took his arm. With all ber soul ehe shrank from delivering this death blow to her son the death blow to his love and pride and all his fine hopes ot happiness. But they were Brownbecks. Better she than an other. ; "Don't you understand, my son?" she asked solemnly. "Fanny has gone away with Bobert Daniels. Ha telephoned from Crawfordsville. Fanny Is dead to you. Yon must put her out ot your life." David stared at her blankly, un believing. 1 "That's preposterous," be said In a loud voice. He tried to say some thing else, but though his mouth worked no words came. Ho swirled, started toward the front door, nc idea In bis head but to start oul blindly and find Fanny. His Cousin Edward, misunderstanding, caught his arm. "I've been to Sidney's," he said "Sheila is all right Fanny anil Bob did not bother themselves Willi' encumbrances." ' ' Tho spell wbb broken; they all babbled a once. . Leila, atrangelj enough, began quarreling with bei Aunt Emmellnu. "You aold It would be all right," she sobbed sccuelngly. "Yon wouldn't let me go to France to meet Bob. It's your fault, it's all your fault" She swayed back anil forth, repenting, hysterically, "It's all your fault; you said it would lis all right" "Better get ber some brandy 'David, too. He's the color ot wax," Edward Phllbrick commanded. Da fid turned and went upstairs to bit bedroom, bit and Fanny's bedroom, lighted all the lights, locked the doors, sat staring stupidly down at the carpet He heard voices, knocks, a rat-a-lat-tnt on the pan els; someone tried first one door, then the other. Presently be made out Leona's voice saying authorita tively, "Davey, open the door this minute. Your mama's going to have It broke down It you don't" Ha got up then and unlocked the door. "Tell them I'm all right," he said peevishly. Then la a sudden burst ot anger, "Tell them for God's sake to leave me alone." Then he switched oil the lights and lay down on the couch. Perhaps an hour later he beard the front door open and close, hoard three cars starting one aftor the other, hoard his mothor come hoavl ly upstairs, listen at hi door and go to hor room.. He lay there mo tionless, two hours, three; heard the milk delivered, dogs harking, the choery discordant whistle ot the paper boy. Suddenly the front door-bell rang urgently rang and rang. Ills moth er's fuotstops went heavily down the stairs. There was an Interval of qulot. Then Leona again was rattling his door. "Davuy. Davey." she urged in t Sibilant whisper, "('nolo downstair! quick. Mis' Fanny's back and yom .mama won't let l.or In." tVaputlght. IMS. (.

People of the modern age look to the material rather than the spiritual Hide of life, according to the Kpeaker, who deplored this tendency on the part of the aver age citizen. The public of today Is too huvy to see the poverty and dlHtrens of the Unfortunates to whom Christmas is often a period of ttadneHH and depression. To Illustrate his contention, the speaker told of a child's letter to Hantu Clnus, written hy an 11-year old boy In this valley who had never known a real Christmas, as well as other similar Instances. If the averag'e citizen would follow the physician and minister for a few days, many needy cases would be brought to light, according to the speaker. In closing, Rev, Porter told ft beautiful Christmas parable which brought out most forcefully the Ideal of service, which Is the foun dation of Rotary principles. Christmas carols by a group of well known local singers were imirh -en Joyed by thosa present. Included In the choir were "Mrs. John Wilkinson, Rertille and Mer rlu Mlksche, Mrs. Bickorstaff and Raymond Atiksohe.
