It seemed empty now, haunted by shadows, b' some sinister presence. The black reticule still lay on the dress- er where madame had left it. Ro- iine, by standing on tiptoe, could move it a little and straighten the picture. The light was dimmer now. But there in its bright metal frame was tlie handsome smiling face, its eyes fixed upon them. Pol Martin gazed at it and slow- ly his lips parted. His fingers tightened on hers. He stared long. He could net seem to tear his eyes from that thin, smiling face. "Poll Te'll me, Pol." Rosine't voice was urgent. "Yes â€" yes!" he whispered. "I would knov him anywhere. I could never forget. It was thus he smiled thi day he ran from Bon Homme's cottage. He wore the uniform of one of the Luftwaffe then. But it Is he." • * • "Yes. I knew. I saw it before the party started.

We shall nnt speak." "Xo, we must not -peak. These are good people, all of them. They do net know that the devil is amongst them." "But Roger promised to kill this one â€" and Roger is strong. He wears a cross the King gave him for being brave. Yes, Roger will kill this one surely."' .•\nd they stole away, out of that room, away from the picture of Michel Fabre that smiled at them in the twilight. It was the day following the coming of the little English eva- cuees who were to find a heme at Philibert. Meridel knocked at ma- dame's door to show the eld lady a letter Rudoiph had received from the bureau m charge of the little guests. Meridel entered when ma- dame's rich voice called "Entrez!" from the inner room. "I shall be out in a minute â€" ah, it is you, Meridel." The door to her bedroom was open. "Make yourself comtortable. child." « « Mtridel did not hear. The room becatne space and the moment eternity. Rapt, heart still, she stared at the picture ot Michel Fabre and slowly walked toward it as if drawn to it by soni • mighty, invi- sible threat. She had forgotten everything in the wonder of find- ing him again. She reached out and touched the 'photograph. She pick- ed it up and looked at it, studying every lineament of the fine young face, realizing how true, how mi- nutely perfect, had been her mind's image â€" the thick brows, the cleft chin, tlie trong wide mouth, the broad forehead and aquiline nose. ••Weill" Madame had been standing be- side her for moments, watching her, the glad look in her eyes, the way her young brea.st rose and fell. .And Diadanie was old and wise as the world and she liad known love and thu9 recognized instantly what she saw in Meridel's face. "I â€" I am sorry, madame. I for- got myself. Tliis man â€" may 1 ask â€" who is he?" ".â- \n insolent, defiant, ungrateful young scamp." said madame. smil- ing fondly at tlie picture. "He is Roger's brother my nephew. Mi- chel Fabre. We call him Mike.' "Rotrvr's brotherâ€" Michel â€" " "Do you know him, Princess?" Meridel nodded. Slowly she put the picture back in its place. "I met hjni once in Gratzen, shc>rtly before the war broke out." ".•\iul he made love to you, I'll wager." * • * Meridel looked gravely into the bright black eyc«, ai.d for a mo- ment did not speak. Then she said, "Xol â€" not a« one expects love to he made â€" ' .Madame chuckled. ".\h, I know. It was in the way he looked at you, in the way he said things more than in what he said: in the way he held that proud red head of his and the way his eyes danced. Is it not so?'' "Yes â€" ves, it i.< so." â- That was .Michel." "Did he â€" make love to many ; " "1 thing not But many K>ved him. He didn't circ. He always wanted to be free-free of his teach- ers, of those who wjuld intirfere \.ith his lite â€" yes. even of mo. See here â€" what he wrote on the back vif this picture." Madame Minii took the photo from its iranii .iind showed the boldly scranililed lines to Meridel, who shaped the words with her lipsâ€" ".•\ better iriend thin love have the.v For none to tnar or mend. That have themselves to friend." "1 don't know tlint any love c»>uld hold him." continued madame. "W hat was he doing when you saw hi>n'" ^ (To Be Continued) In La Cambe cemetery, France, where many of those killed in tiie Normandy invasion are buried, Madame Blanche ChapeUe, left, and her daughter, Helene. kneel at the grave of James Simonian of New York State while the girl reads a letter from the soldier's mothere.

May the bridegroom mail some of the weiidin ; invitations tc his intimate circle of friends? 2. Is it considered good manners to crook the little finger when Hfting a glass or a coffee cup? 3. Which one should enter first when a mother and daughter are entering an automobile? 4. What should one do when in 1 group of persons, either sitting or standing, and it is necessary to turn one's back towards another person? 5. Is it in good form to lay two or three spoons crosswise above each dinner plate? 6. Is it all right for a woman to present a letter of introduction personally? ANSWERS 1. Ko; all the invitations should be mailed from the bride's home. The bride's fiance should of course furnish a list of his rela- tives and friends to whom he wishes invitation sent. 2. This- is merely affectation. 3. The mother. 4. -Apologize, always. 5. No: this was an old custom, but is out-of- date. 6. No; a man has this privil- ege, but not a woman. No Pageantry Americans wlio are dazzled by the pageantry of state openings of Parliament and state visits ot the King and Queen would have been astonisheil, at the total lack of ceremony attending the Prime Mi- nister's first shot in the election battle. There were no flags, no parades as in Nazi Germany, no special presidential train as in .America; only a stoutish gentleman holding in his hand a high-crowned hat that wriiid have struck the inhabit- ants of the .Ark as old-fashioned, addressing a few halting words, in a gentle shower of rain, to an audience of housewives out on a morning of shopping. This, of course, doesn't mean any want of enthusiasm for Mr. Churchill â€" it is merely the ine.-<- phcable English way of doing things. Churchill Opens Election Campaign Prime Minister Fires First Shot On Village Green I walked to the end o: the road where I live, strolled over to our village green, passed under a row of chestnut trees which are the chief foundation of ou.- loc.il pride, and saw in front of the Working Men's Club, a small crowd of a couple of hundred people, incUul- ing a large number of children un- der 10. surrounding a tiny motor- car from which an elderly gentle- man was making a speech, writes Harold Hobson in The Christj^n Science Monitor. Coining closer I observed that this Pickwickian gentleman was Prime Minister Winston Churchill engaged in opening the Conserva- tive Party's electoral campaign in what has been described as the most important election in British history. If this description is true, nobo- dy would have guessed it from the casual, informal appearance of Mr. Churchill at Woo<liord. How Can /? By Anne Ashley Q.

One was a visit- ing and business trip â€" mostly busi- ness â€" the otlier was a sightseeing occasion. Partner and I went to Guelph last Friday and that busy little city was about as busy as we ever saw it. When we \isited with friends just above the College we discovered the reason â€" and I suppose we should have known it all along. It %'as some kiml of "Farmers Day' at the College and it appeared as if mos' 01 the far- mers and tlieir families for miles around had moved '.1 a:d taken over the College lock, stock and barrel. But we didn't go in. At the time we went by it was nearly five o'clock and at five o clock a farmer's failing is to turn reluc- tantly to thoughts of heme â€" to cows that need milking and to poultry that wants feeding. So we had an e."it-and-run cup ot tea with our friends and after admiring their chickens and gardens, and what we coud see of their crops, we made tracks for home, our faith- ful old Lizzie chugging along, con- tentedly purring because we were on a down-grade nearly all the way home. Over the week-end Danghter and friend Bert were here and it was they wl"o took us on a sight- seeng trip. For a long time Par- tner had been wanting to see again the Shad Dam at Fergus. So that's where we went. But we found it had been re-na:ncd since we saw it beiore.e .\'ow it is 'the Grand River Dam' which seems quite appropriate since it is the Grand River which it controls. By any name it is a marvellous piece of engineering and wel' worth taking a littie time and trouble to see. Fersonaliy I shall have rcas.^n to remember our visit to the Grand River Dam for several days. You see after looking at everything from the level of th^ bridge we naturally wanted to size things up from below. But g-^ing .-.11 the way around looked like a long way to walk so we tried taking a 'short cut' down the shale rock embank- ment. It was a short cut i:i dis- tance but certainly not in time. Believe me. it was some fe:!t. I de- clare that that bank got steeper and longer with every step we toi->k and the footing was particularly treacherous. We finally made it. of course, but today 1 am *o stiff ii my joint it is leal'y painful to move. From Fergns we went on to the Rocks at Flora. For Partner and I, it was a case of "Flora Re- visited", liven at that we found several little walks and look-outs that we had missed before, parti- cularly that oi an island rock which stands in the middle of a water- fall. It was Daughter's first visit however, and. knowing her waiider- ing propensities â€" which she pro- Sably inherits from her mother â€" I don't suppose there w-- very much li ai she misled. We had our '.ur.oh w:t:'. us and because it begur. to ra:n :he car was our picnic gr^nnd, which didn't seem to make any dif- ference to the enjoyment ar.c ease with which our lunch was iis- patched. Coming ^ome by way of Xo. T Highway and then across cout'try, w . finished our journey by visit- in^ a young mother and her t:;ree- weeks old baby. yatural'.y for quite a little while the womer.-:o!k indulged in baby worship whiie the men sat around outside iii- cussing crops, weather conditirns, milk cows and other mtinda::e af- fairs dear to masculine hearts and from which we women folk '.bene- fit â€" but I might add to whic': we also contribute our share of work and worrv. Fiery Calling Cards Dropped On Japan The Chemical Warfare S^.-v;ce disclosed not long ago that S"per- lortresses are dropping at least four types of incendiary boir.' s on Japan and that research is under way to develop more fiery calling cards. Two of the bombs spread flam- ing synthetic lava formed by jel- lied gasoline, powdered magne- sium, liquid asphalt ai.d ot!:er in- gredients. One is the M-Tti «r '"Goop"* bomb, a 500-pounder. which scat- ters lava into corners and other out-of-the-way places. The ther is the tenpouud M-T4. equi.vjed with a mechanism that t':rows gobs of burning lava for distririces of twenty-five yards. The two other types of i oinbs are the 100-pbund M-17 a:;d the six-pound M-69 duster. Th.e M- 47. packed with jellied gasoii::e in a thin wall, is capable of sca::ering chunks of fire for distances of forty yards. The M-t;9 is made u'l of bomb clusters scattered by .t time fu-;e releasing a c>-.-v,e- c:' ""re stick'^. mm. METBCPOLE I All Beautifully Furnished j With Running Water.
