She at once nil Dicky to tea. and demands tkal he etchexe riotout llvtno and teltle down. Be vromieet. and ehe and Cllve return to their own hnp- J in.... Then thev art called tlmi y a enee.aoe that OUiie't em Ttloytr hat tailed. Chapter 21 THE HAUNTED MARRIAGE ftnUT 1 did io 1ot our honey- D moon,' Santa objected as their train lett St. Jean de Lus. "Let me be weak and silly. Cllve. I'm home lick tor something." He in bomealck tor It, too happiness io gilt-edged that it would never fluctuate with the market. Ai the roared through pine tor eeta. onf vied and reslnoua, be listened to the sleep? murmur ot her voice. Why couldn't they dodge reapon lbllltlea; buy a ostt.t Mcse to the Spanish Irontler and bask forever In sunshine! "If we were to get off at Bor deaux," she suggested mock-seriously, "we could be back In para dise tomorrow." He smoothed bli cheek against her dark head. "It's the only sacrifice I wouldn't make tor you." Is Paris next morning there was barely time to change to the boat train. They reached Havre through Normandy orchards. Then all be came hustle. They were waking from a dream; mercifully their awakening was gradual. A little respite yet re mained; the Atlantic was a No Man's Land dividing illusion from reality. As they walked the decks, Santa's courage revived. "We have each other; we can face anything." The sight before they landed, having danced till the orchestra bad stopped, they were seated on deck, their chairs drawn together. Beneath the rug that covered their knees, Cllve groped tor her band. "Something on your mind!" she challenged. "Santa, dear, this trip has taught ns at least one lesson." "Which! It's taught ma many." "That when one marries, it's wise to make a clean break with the past." . "Wlsardl When time kicks you, you have to." "I'm referring to what happened st St Jean our bumping Into Dak." ' The trows she bad bees wearing vanished. Relief expressed itself Is laughter. -"Cllve. you're killing." "What I mean Is," he mumbled. 8be snatched bis words. "Do 1 Intend to perform the 8ob Sister Sadie stunt eaoh time we bump Into him, I do not. Having laid that ghost, trot out the next!" , He folded the rug and helped her to her feet "There Isn't a next" But In the darkness of their cab In, when he thought her sleeping. ahe addressed him. "I can hear you tossing. Stop worrying. All your ghosts are the lame as Dicky." "What'a that!" He aat up. "Imagined. Nothing can hurt you, Fm here to protect you." He glanced across at the vague outline ot her childish figure. She, too, waa sitting up, "Protect mel" "Never occurred to you, did ltr she giggled. "Ton fancy yourself so strong. Accept or leave It that was the chief reason 1 married you." Ogres shrivelled. It waa new to pretend that she sheltered him. On a Saturday afternoon Is late August soaring above flat shores New York took shape on the horl son. The liner which bad been so wlft and competent slowed down to a crawL To Santa and Cllve It aeemed they had never travelled; they had stood while the world bad been moved by Invisible scene- shifters. No one ot their ows was on the dock. While trunks were being ex amined, they were handed a tele gram, urging them to spend the week-end with Santa's parents on Cape Cod. "We've too much to think about' Cllve dismissed the Invitation. In the taxi, racing uptown, Santa thrust her friendly arm through hie. "It'a a bit horrid to land back Into so much uncertainty. But heaps ot glorious things lie ahead, I'm sure." He wasn't She seemed to blm another Nelson, raising the tele soope to her wilfully blind ere. Nevertheless, her confidence was re-aasurlng. She had the knack ot reducing bis mountains to mole- ..bills. She continued to talk, making sunny remarks. He responded, but paid scant attention. The control ot his life waa slipping from blm. All kinds ot Insidious Influences were reviving. He must put up a fight before the memory of tbelr re cent equality had quite escaped her. While he waa deciding bow to tackle her, the parched greenness ot Central Park grew up. A few minutes later the taxi was halting. As they gazed across the thresh old of their apartment he recalled how bis parting wish bsd been that It aid all that It contained might burs during their absence. Hand- ln-band they made a tour of Inspec tion. Save for dust that had gath ered, everything was precisely aa they had left It Without warning, Santa swung round and hugged him. "It's good to be home." He recognised the familiar in tonation! ahe was expecting him to be grateful. That bad been all right once. But since then they had spoken frankly; she knew how he detested the home ot ber providing. "We're back If that's what you mean," he grinned. "The dream's ended." "But, old down-ln-the-dumps," she flashed, "dreams begin again." Do we sleep here? What are our plans?" be asked abruptly. Ouees so." She patted her hair. "Won't (ake long to make s bed. Well have heaps ot tun camping. Monday I'll engage a maid and we'll settle properly." ' So that was the program! It waa news to him. He wished he'd dis cussed with ber their future on the voyage. The strong thing to do would be to brush aside her pre tences to treat her with the cold loglo ot a lawyer Interrogating a witness. Abroad especially that night in Paris she'd been genuine ly conscious-stricken In recalling the humiliation she'd caused blm by compelling blm to live In uncon genial surroundings. All' be bad to do was to kick over the traces. But he couldn't be brutal. He waa In love with her. Evening faded from gold to rose, from rose to twilight Suddenly she rejoined blm. She'd changed from head to heel. In ber evening wrap and low-cut gown she looked Irresistible. "Did It for you, darling." He seized her small perfumed hands. "Do you do everything for me. Santa?" "Everything." "Is there anything ton wouldn't do?" 'Nothing provided It was for your good." She peeped up at him slyly. You wouldn't make me a bought- and-pald-tor husband, would you?" Couldn't" Then good-bys to al! this." He bowed to tbe shrouded furniture. We'll continue our honeymoon." "O, goodie!" She snuggled against him. He was In a mood to celebrate- to make a gracious gosture. When she discovered that their destina tion was the Angoulcme, ehe protested. "Too expensive." He couldn't tell her that he was spending money to convince him self that he felt really sure ot her. Over French dishes and boot legged wine that he ordered, rem iniscent of St Jean de Lus, she re proached him. "You don't need to do all this for me, darling. I'm your wife not a ohorus-glrl." "Did you expect me to take yon to Child's?" "Shouldn't have minded, so long as I waa with you." "But you're not dressed to pa tronize Child's no hat bare shoul ders. Jewels. " p "Never thought ot that Cllve. But you do like me to be lovely?" Beneath the table he caught her Angers. Later ahe laid: "I've not forgotten bow you bate the apartment On Monday youll be seeing Mr. Cleaaby. After that we'll know where we stand." "It I've lost my Job," he com menced. "If you have," she cut him short "you'll And a better. Anyhow, to hire a room at a hotel when we have a place ot our own would be fool ish." "Suppose It would." "And picture me," she added, "carting clothes back and forth. So let's endure the old apartment" "Till Monday." He squeezed ber Angers, "Till we know where we're at" She returned tbe pressure.

Nothing Is more Important than that which concerns the coming gen eration. Philip Brook iay, ."The future of the race marches forward on the test of little children." Life all about us la changing. In 1840, In Boston, an average school of 400 pupils had 65 whlpplnga a day. Whippings have . disappeared from our schools. . During all this time, pupils have gradually been allowed to assume re aponslblllty for both thinking and doing, and behavior In school natur ally Improved. .The atudy of education In our uni versities has shown us that pupils are all different In their ability to learn and should not be expected to have the same results In the same subjects all at the same time. Successful school effort should be measured by Individual Improvement, not victory, over others, as every child has an unlimited capacity for learning. This comparatively new type of education has proved that children learn easier and better when they are Interested In what they axe doing when given the opportunity to ex press themselves. It Is Impossible to group classes so that all will have the same abil ity. Recognition of this fact makes It unfair to label some children as "bright" and others as "dull." They may be equally bright In one sub ject and differ In another. The modern school puts more em phasis on formation of character and leas value on marks, thereby getting better results. It Is difficult to test the more significant things, such as right thinking and appreciation of good literature. On the contrary, mechanical systems are easily tested but the real ability of the individual Is not recognized. The Valley schol Is vitally inter ested In the growth of healthy, whole some personality and each child be comes more resourceful because be Is accumulating knowledge In a steady, well organized manner. Faulty management can be avoid ed In this generation If parents will adjust themselves to new situations and realize that whatever la done toward safeguarding children will be done for the ultimate welfare of the nation. Every Sunday at 11 a. m., there will be a program on progressive education, through the courtesy of KMED. Two Filers Cremated. DOVER, Del,. Nov. KHiflin A. Montgomery, Jr., president of J. A.

(TP) Letters written 28 years ago to W. Walton Edwards, former attorney or Washing ton, D. C, reached his family neir here, five years after bis death, but It was not the fault of the postal service.

The DePauw chapter of -Delta Chi fraternity this year eliminated the paddling of pledges. Other organi zations have confined their heckling of neophytes to the house.
