ir . married on earth, and since there was no marrying in Heaven, they were almost as badly off as Larue Clarke and Albert Buchanan, who fell in love after they got there, contrary to all rules and regulations. At the end of the Way the girls, having thanked the boatmen, sat for awhile with Biddy and Dorothy on the points of a star, while they kept watchful eyes on all lovers walking on the earth. When they came downLthey brushed against an alabaster box of large dimensions, and a sleepy voice sounding like Bill Young's said: Look out for the bees g another fHarry Keltner'sJ broke in with Deprive not these celestial creatures of their rest, lest your milk go honeyless tomorrow. ' , The girls hastily withdrew from the dangerous vicinity. I forgot about the bees, Portio apologized, They are only up here for a vacation. They belong down on the first cycle with all the other animals. You'll Want to see the milk made there too. There used to be a saintly herd of Jerseys, but Cleo Brown and 'James Clarke have a new method of making milk out of milkweed, and the Jerseys have all been sent back to earth. ' A white robed figure, gold crowned, passed them, barely discernible in the light of its burning waxen taper. It was Nady, going to light the tapers in the temple. As she passed, the temple bells began to ring, for Blythe and Bee, who tended them, were always on time. Portia led the way toward the church, whose stained glass windows stood like jewels upon the curtain of the night But she paused at the steps so they could watch the procession Of their acquaintances the little Nelsons came first their wings sedately folded as they followed St Peter and lifted his sacred robes from the golden ground Among the host of cherublm and seraphim Lucile Harris and Gladys Teeter looked out for an instant mis chlevously only to be replaced by Jim Gilmer swinging incense from a Jasper censer In Saint Andrews followlng came John Trommer and Theodore Eckey who had one day surreptitlously gone fishing and given the saint one of their catch thus winning his lasting thanks as he had been homesick for his old occu pation and was far too busy to take a day off Robert Ricketts and Arthur Mlckey were attached to Saint Thomas They had taught him to play I Doubt It and as he was striving to live down h1s nickname and finding it hard the game be came quite a favorlte as he could thus exhaust all the doubts in his nature They recognized no more acquaintances until the orchestra marched by and there was Laddie Ball with h1S crown fallen over one ear because he was blowing so hard on his golden trumpet and Henry Lee with a flute instead of the drum he had on earth Robert Boltz had that and was beatlng it so lndustriously the chon had to lose nearly all their dignity to keep step Robert Freshwater was leading the music with an emerald baton When the p1 ocession had passed the g1rls rose reverently to follow Susan realized that at last she would know the mystery of Paradise But the temple lights grew dim A mist enveloped everything Susan laid down her crystal gazing ball I never knew before what fun crystal gazing could be she said . . . . 1 - 9 , . r 1 . , . - x 1 1 s 9 , K .

' intendents of the Golden Stair-Louise Enlow and Fred Gilbert-soon fixed Susan a pass, but declined to give Tubby one because Portia had come down for Susan, and Emma Horn was waiting to take them up in the elevator to save them from the fatigue of climbing the stairs. W The girls went up together and got out for awhile at the Third Cycle. They saw Glessie Johnson and Glen Hizel Working in the Heavenly Harp Tunery, but being in a hurry, they went quickly on to the Baby Angels' School where all the Normal Training Girls were teaching. CThey had all married too soon on earth to use their valuable trainingl. A circus was in full swing, put on by the ex-Senior football team of 1922, which had become an entertainment company of distinc- tion. Hugh played the goat, so his hard head was invaluableg and the two Reds were the Siamese Twins. Duck followed his namesakeg Slim was the giraffe, and Flindt the whole Wild West show, while Dee and Bill made the ele- phant, and Oz, the Wizard, played all sorts of transformation tricks on Hokey and Stewart, until they finally became monkeys for the rest of the show. Charlie Williams was managing the circus, so he could talk uninterrupted by arguments. The sun was sinking low, so the girls soon had to go on to the fourth cycle. They arrived in the midst of Heavenly-Choir practice, and hastily retreated, though they caught sight of Eunice Gilbert and Quinlin Collins waving their palm leaves and chanting with the rest. At the entrance to the fifth cycle they found a circle of controls trying to get through by mediums and 0u1Ja to friends on earth Keith Helterbran and Marie Gookin were above suspicion in the sincerity of their motives but Io Starr had gone through as a Heap Big InJun and was enJoy1ng herself as a gay deceiver Beyond them was Professor Junior Daggett teaching his pet pupil Sam King some new quirks in dancing on ice skates while not far from them Cleo was sitting on the tail of a comet with Wh1Ch Leota and V1 were playing battledore and shuttlecock As she sailed through the air each time the ball was struck Cleo cheered on the contestants with all her old F H S vigor All three of the girls were enthusiastic students in the Turner Mary School for the Acquiring of the Perfect Form and the two school mistresses were watching them studiously Suddenly Portia noticed that Teresa Murphy Maurice Peterson Joseph Supalla Florence Klger and Edna Chidester were all busily arranging the l1ttle clouds that were to make the sunset on earth and she hurrled Susan to the elevator in which they speedily rose to the sixth cycle When they stepped out they were in velvet darkness but the stars seemed very large and near at hand The Milky Way stretched before them like a river of molten silver A little boat at its edge was Just putting off and Bill Faulkner the Captain stopped to take them for a sail Harold West and Everett Turmpseed were the rowers and they were making haste because they were taking Glen Turner with them and he only had a certain time to drop his load of falling stars one by one upon the earth below As they sailed they passed W1ll1e and Phil walking loverllke Por tia explalned that they had been killed in an auto accident before they could be ' cc sr ' .
