IT was after dinner that night that
Alison summoned up enough
courage to ask about her father's
fiancee.
"Tell me more about her. What's
she like? Where did you meet her?
How did It all happen?"
Robert, sitting contentedly In hit

cigar alight and his daughtei
perched on the arm of the chair, felt
cheerfully at peace with the whole
world. He smiled merrily at Alison

"Yes, but what's she like?" Allsor
Insisted "Tid know, father darling

"Has she any children?" asked
Alison.
"Children? Good Lord, no!" He
seemed almost shocked at the no

"How old Is she thon?"
Her father looked up at her blank

"Dyou know, now you come to
mention It, 1 don't know!"
Alison laughed.
"Darling. Isn't that like you!"
"1 should say she was about," he
considered, "woll, ten years older

Twenty-eight. Well, that wasn't
too bad, decided Alison; It would be
more tike having an older sister.
The phrase In her father's lotter:
"a Mrs. Sumers. a widow," might
have meant anything.
"You know you haven't really told
me anything about her; what's her
other name?"
"Daphne."
"That'a pretty; Daphne Sumers,"

"She won't bo that soon!"

do If I were a graduate," Fred M.
Weatherford, pastor-evangelist, read
Proverbs 3:1-7. In part ho said:
"If I were not a Christian I would
first of all start with Christ as my
Saviour. I would resolve to succeed
in life. It la true that the valley
thoroughfares of life are strewn with
the wrecks of time. But there always
has been plenty of room at the top.
"The religious, educational, com
mercial or political world will never
look to age to champion Its cause.
,Theae fields of service look to the
verile blood of youth.
'Youth Is prone to look to gray
hairs as filling the high posts in life,
but let It be remembered that Joseph
was prime minister of Egypt at 30;
that David, by stealth and valor, had
defeated the Philistines by taking the
mighty Goliath and saved the day for
Israel at 20; Alexander had con
