After Deborah hud stood np amt told
Kmart In that strange voice ihal *hr
millilh'l |ai**lbly marry him after she
• had repealeil it again and again and
made him see that she meant If. ho
bad been In a wild rase. It was then
that be had said siteli horrible thing*
to her. Mis words had come oat In
•uch a torrent that Mr llolworthy
couldn't stop them. After a moment
lielmrah had run away. Into hii outer
ollire, anywhere to escape from Smart
Graham of coarse, so loud voiced a*»
thick lipped and bold. Cut Stuart ha I
followed her. Smart was a bully, lie
wu* <1111 miking to her. pushing him
self directly hid ween her and the door,
between her ami freedom, when this
quiet young Ilian with tile steady grnv
eves had risen rmm a chair and faced
him. lie steeped hia loud talking
and he. in to mutter llut Bryn hadn’t
moved, except that Ids arm came
straight up and his list hit Smart
under the chin with a terrific crash,
and Stumt had crumpled to the floor.
' I •choral*, toy dulling, what is ihe
matter'.'' (irandiuother said suddenly.
“You are unite pule"’
“Nothing, lirandinotlier," Deborah
answered. Hnd managed a smile.
'It's rather a long trip up from San
Francisco when you’re not accustomed
to motoring," the man said. “And It's
very hot in the Sacramento valley in
June.”
“I am sure It must have been try-
.Ine," (Irandiuother said, still looking
at her tenderly. There was something
new and solicitous In her expression.
Now that out greatest problem Is solved,
surely we can make a real change in
our way of living.”
“What do you mean?" Deborah asked
quickly
"Oh, so many things, dear." Grand- \
mother leaned forward. “We must fur- -
bisli ourselves up, for one thing. We
are becoming quite careless as to our
ways of lii'ng I’ve been feeling guil j
ty about It for a long time, but I’ve •
been so worried about Deborah tDmt
nothing els* seemed of any particular j
Importance. But now I feel," she fin-
ished briskly, "that we must have two
or three extra servants at once, have
the grounds pul in order, have the
electric plant repaired . .
“But—” Deborah said faintly, and
•topped.
"But what, my darling? Would you
not like to see the house filled with
young company, with music, with life?
To have a host of pretty new clothes?”
“We don't know anyone to fill the
house with,’’ Deborah protested miser-
ably.
"Stuart does," Grandmother said
with confidence. “He told me only a
few moments ago thut he had a great
many friends In Kan Francisco.”
“Grandmother ...”
She smiled. “Now, Deborah, of
course we should not ask tinyone for
some time, my dear. Yon and Stuart
must have a month or two of your
own, first. But during that time the
house and grounds can be taken care
of; they have been neglected so long
It will Ik* quite an undertaking. Since
your grandfather wished that we |
should spend a year here after your
marlage, I think we must try and
make 11 a happy year, ami In It pre
pare you as best we can to mingle In
society when we emerge at last from
our retreat.”
"I never want to go away from
hero,” Deborah cried, ‘never, never!"
“Why, Deborah!” Grandmother said
In surprise. "Stuart, the dear child
Is quite overwrought. Of course you
will go away from here, aty dear, you
and Stuart. The whole world is before
yon. Am I not right, Stuart? You
would not he satisfied to spend all
your life here?"
He hesitated, but only for a frac-
tion of a second. Then, "I’m not at all
sure that I shouldn't he. If Dehoralt
were to he here." he said,
Deborah Jumped from her chair. Her
eyes flashed. “Was that necessary?"
she asked him bitterly
Grandmother stood up too, n slight
small figure In her gray. “What do
you mean?" she asked In a still cold
voice.
“Oh!" Deborah began, and stopped.
“Nothing,” she said slowly. “I am . . .
overwrought. Grandmother. I think
I will go and rest for a little."
“Of course, dear,” she answered, re-
lieved. “Of course. I understand. Go
along, then . . . and your things are
In the silver rooms In the south wing.”
“The silver rooms?" Deborah repeat-
ed. Involuntarily her startled eyes
fell to the man's nnd gray and violet
clung together. Deborah's cheeks be-
gan to burn. She looked away.
“No objections, my dear. The sil-
ver rooms were always Intended for
Von, but you preferred to be npur me
rather than In the south wing alone.
Go along, my darling, and perhaps
■ fter a little I will follow your ex-
ample. The excitement and the hap-
piness have quite tired me out."
I?eborah went across the room and !
through the door. She wanted to stamp
and kick and scream. This must be
how • rabbit felt when It was caught
In a inure. She went on, up the long
curving staircase, down the corridor
Into the south wing, through the aec-
mtd door on the right. Inside was a
sitting room, with walls panelled In
silver, with rugs and chairs and cur-
tains done In deep violet. There was
» huge four-poster bed against the In-
ner wall, with a beautiful violet- and
tarnlshed-silver spread upon It, and a
low atlver bowl of violets on s little
table at one able. And. at the foot of
the bed, was a man's heavy pigskin
bag, as yet unopened.
She went across to It and lifted It
with a vicious Jerk. It was heavy. She
went through the bedroom and the ait-
Hng room to the corridor. She put
Ihe hag down with a thump on the
floor outside the door, pullet) the all
ting room door abut with a hang and
shot the bolt.
CHAPTER III
There were high spiked Iron gates
at the end of I lie w eed grown drive.
Ilryn leaned hi* Mhonbters against
them, took his sliver case out thought-
fully nnd lit a cigarette.

Bryn recalled that In the last ten
miles of narrow, almost Impassable

dark path toward the house.
'I lie birds outside Bryn's window
wakened him very early; the morning
air was still night cold nnd fresh when
he yawned, stret, bed, put his hands
behind his head and li. tened for a
moment or two to the long Involved
scoldings and chattering* of a bird
family. Bryn threw hack Ills quilts
ami sprang out of bed.
A few minutes later, in his white
shirt and gray knickerbockers he
closed lii.s door noiselessly and tiptoed
down the hull past the door which
must be Deborah's, since it was the
only closed one along the corridor
Gary, who was obviously In Deborah's
confidence, had been most reluctant
even to give Bryn a room In this
wing, hut It couldn't he helped, since
Mrs. I.arned herself was in the north
wing.
Bryn stepp**) out over the pttlT of
dew-laden grass at the foot of the
steps, to Ihe wide red uneven stones
of the path, lie thrust his hands In
Ills pockets and sauntered along the
side of the south wing and around the'
end. He was facing the mountain now;
there was still a little broken wreath
of mist around the top. Between him
and the forest, at the buck of the
stretch of park land, he could see the
serrated rows of the orchard trees,
and a clear flat space beside It which
appeared to he it garden. He followed
the narrow beaten path, hedged with
drooping wet grass, across to the cor-
ner of the orchard. He came to a
stop beneath a cherry tree whose top-
most boughs were still laden down
with heavy fruit. Bryn regarded It.

THE WAY OF SALVATION
By Rev. J. T. H*T|*r,
! ARTICLE 2
As the doctrine of the fallen and
depraved condition of the heart re-
ceives so little emphasis these Hays,
we turn to the Scriptures for God’s
r dimate of man’s condition without
the influence and power of Ills grace
tn the swul.
We quote Gen fi:6: “And God saw
that th«* wickedness of man was great
m the etitlh, and that every imagtnn
tmn of thi thoughts of his heart was
only evil continually.” Thi* was be-
"otc Noah’s flood; and in the 11th
’ we read: ‘‘And the earth also
wa eorru t before God, and the
-a hi was filled with violence." Anil
he righteous indignation of God was
o titled that lie sent the flood and
desttoyed every living creature on
the eatth, except Noah, his wife,
their thiee sons, and their wives,
ihus God gave us a glimpse of His
abhorrence for sin. Also this is refer-
ted to in other Scriptures, as a mere
'an le of Cod’s eternal vengeance
against the impenitent wicked.
Turning to Jer. 17:9. “The heart
is di- iitful above all things, and des-
pera'ely wicked: who can know it?”
Mso in i’ 5X:3-5, we have this aw-
ful picture: "The witked are es-
tiangod from the womb; they go
astray as soon as they are born,
sneaking lies. Their poison is like the
I oiton of a serpent; they are like the
deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;
that will not hearken to the voice of
charmers, charming never so wisely."
As we lead this fearful description,
naturally we ask, “Who a e ‘The
Wicked’ God thus describes?” And
we find the answer in Ps. 14: 2-3:
“The Lord looked down from Heav-
en on THE CHiLDLEN OF MEN, to
see if there were ANY that did un-
derstand, and seek God. They are
ALL gone aside, they are all togeth-
er become filthy; there is none that
doeth good, no, not one.” This Scrip-
ture refer:; not to those . aved by
grace, hut to the fallen race, without
the salvation of Christ in their
hearts.
But someone may ay that is from
the Old Testament, so we turn to the
New Testament, Kom. 3:9: “For we
have before proved both JEW and
GEN PILES that they are all under
sin: as it is written, there is none
i ighteous, no, not one. There is none
that understandeth, there is none
that seeketh after God. They are all
gone out of the way, they are togeth-
er become unprofitable; there is none
that (ioeth good, no, not one. Their
throat is an open sepulchre; with
their tongue they have used deceit;
the poison of asps is under their lips:
whose mouth is full of cursing and
bitterness: their feet are swift to
shed bood; destruction and misery
tire in their ways; the way of peace
they have not known; there is no
fear of God before their eyes.”
This New Testament statement is
ruly dark and shockingly hideous to j
ontemplate. But we must remember
hat for many generations we have
md the Bible in our homes, teachers
'f moral character to educate and
rain our children. Then there are
ur Sabbath schools, often taught by
>*d inspired Christians diligently
aching true righteousness, which is
he foundation stone of true Godli-
Hut greatest of all is that we
»ve the Gospel preached by the dif-
‘ dcnor*innti<vis on every hand
throughout our country, and In
many other nation* Of earth
And notwithstanding we have so
many forces propagating righteous
nee* in the earth, It is only necessary
for one to realiie that the many
Bible statement* of man's fall and
sinful disposition arc TREE, is to h
come acquainted with the life and
conduct of the Social. Commercial,
I'olittcal and Ecclesiastical w ot his,
for one to be thoroughly convinced
that something i< radically wrung
with the heart and life of man. Then
read the endless roixirts of the
black and heinous crimes wrought
throughout the earth daily, and we
begin to realize the tiuth <|K)k*‘n by
Jesus in Mar. 7:21-22, "Out of the
heart of men, proceed evil th >ughts,
adulteries, fornications, murders,
thefts, covetousness, wickedness, de-
ceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blas-
phemy, pride, fooli; hness.” Here is
where our trouble lies, INDIVIDU-
ALLY and NATIONALLY. No
doubt, hut some are born more deep-
ly dyed with t;: sin principle than
others; but none are exempted.
Therefore, it is written. Gal. 3:22:
“But the Scriptures hnth concluded
ALL under sin. that the promise by
faith of Jesus Christ might be given
to them that believe." It is hard for
the indvidual who has NOT been
truly bom of th * Spirit and w o
maintain a conscience void of offence
toward God and toxatu men; that,
they ate already LOST. Just as the
rrirninal, condemned tn the electric
chair or to be hanged in some future
date, so every unsaved soul awaits its
final doom, "Where their worm dieth
not and the fire is not quenched.”
Mar. 9:43-17.

TWO WESTERNS DUE AT LOCAL
THEATRE.
Warner Bros.’ western drama,
“ftong of the Saddle", is showng cur-
rently at the Colonial Theatre. l>ick
Fin an ihe character of the Sing-
ing Kid has th<- leading role. Alma
Lloyd plays the feminine lead. Shoot
ing is plentiful and quite a bit of
: lain arid fancy horsemanship is dis-
played in this exciting western.
A fence war in which they are pit-
ted against a band of rustlers, who
have trosed as respectable ranch op-
erators, involves William Boyd and
Jimmy Ellison in the latest punch-
tilled “Hopalong Cassidy” picture,
“Heart of the West”, coming Monday
and Tuesday to the Colonial. Boyd
and Ellison tie up with a ranch op-
erated by a young Easterner, in the
film. The owner’s sister, Lynn
Gabriel, proves a romantic attraction
for young Ellison. Kidney Blaekmer
leads a crew of six rustlers operating
out of the "Tumbling L" ranch;
George Hayes plays an old rancher
who uses only a blacksnake whip as
a weapon.

Only GULFPRIDE is made by this process-result of 15 years’
research-the same scientific research that has made every Gulf
