Tomorrow's Promise

By Temple Bailey Continued

He drove on and Vicky sat down on e. rude wooden bench to read her letter from Francis. A line cl.-me to her every day. she did not often write to him. but she was glad to get his letters. They were never love letter. but they breathed his need of her. "Anne is a precious child. but she is not enough."

Vicky sighed as she folded the let- ter. She knew she was wise. but wis- dom was not easy. She could not have defined her reasons for not marrying Francis Ordway. but she had no doubts as to the rightness of her decision.

She returned to the house to find her mother still in the kitchen. "sit down. my dear." Mrs. Hewitt told her, "and read me the news while I peel apples for the pies."

Vicky liked to read the news to her mother, Things that ocngr-:55 was doing. and the President and the marriages and deaths. They talked over each item. argued a lit- tic. were interested in wedding gowns and guests. and found now and then in the death notices news of some friend who had passed on.

But today there was no news of friends, yet as Vicky glanced down the line her eyes caught a familiar name and she lo:ked again:

"Patterson: At, Carlo. Egypt. Margot. wife of Charles Patterson. " Margot. Wife of Charles. Then Charles Patterson was free! "Mother. Vicky said brcathlessly. "listen to this!" She read the notice. ”Oh. Mother. I wonder if this means happiness for Anne."

Anne was giving a breakfast. party for Betty Lanvale. Betty had c:me down with her young husband and her adorable baby.

”The baby." Betty had told Anne during the second week after her arrival, "is utterly superfluous in a place like this. He doesn't know he has a mother. Bates wants me wit.h him and the crowd every min- ute. We dance solute that l'm dead in the mornings. Now and then Iruri in and pat Bates. Junior. on the head and say 'Darling!i And that's all he knows about me. The things he loves are his bcttlc and that starch- ed -white nurse of his."

Anne laughed. "It isn't half so bad as it sounds."

"It's worse. You don't know. An- ne. Youire not a mother."

"If I were. I'd live for my baby and not for the crowd."

"Much you know about it. If I didn't live for the crowd I'd lose Bates. He hates domesticity."

Anne laughed again. but her hear": had been shaken for all about her babies were being brought up that way, The mothers. most of them. were nothing but little dancim: der- vishes. And the fathers! Golf and There didn't seem to be

and roulette.

Anne had thcughi. life would lime no more fears for her. but now she was afraid because the thins: that had seemed a part of her life when she lived with Vicky were lwnmlna less and less important as she was

At the moment the Lanvsle break- fast was on her mind, and a dance at the club on St. Valentine's Day. And there would have to be 0LhCl' things later. until all her social debts were paid.

she was waiting for her guests. The tables were set in the grove which surrounded the house. They had umbrellas over them of strip- ed mauve and white and on each table was a white bowl filled with violets. '

Her father. who stcod beside her on the porch, asked. "Happy. An- no?"

"I'm not sure."

"Why not?"

"Oh. sometimes I think it isn't all-real, Daddy".

”I know. would you rather go home?”

"Not unless we oculd have Vicky with us."

”Vicky cantt come until June." After a moment he asked, "What about Garry? Aren't you and he rushing it a bit?"

"There's nothing in it. Daddy. Not really.”

Yet Anne wondered. as she went down to meet the first arrivals, if she were really telling the truth about Garry. She didntvwant to marry him. She didn't want to mar- ry anybcdy. But Garry was great fun. and she would miss him if he weren't there.

After breakfast they played con- tract. There were marvelous prizes. Betty Lanvale said on leaving, ”Everybody is talking about you. Anne. I should think your head

would turn."

"Perhaps it is. Perhaps it will turn all the ivav round. and than I shall be sensible agalii."

Betty moved on. and after a timer Anne was al-one with Garry. "What do you say to a swim?" he asked: her.

"I'd love it." and Anne went off- to come back as a nymph in greei:.' A green rubber cap covered her bright hair. a green wrap was ilun; about her.

The shadows oi the afternoon were slanting across the water. It was cool and delicious to be float- ing under the amethyst sky. They were silent until Garry said. "In a few days I shall be going back. Annef

”Back where?"

"Home. There are some income tax matters that the bank can't fix up without me." -

”Oh stick around. Garry. until after st. Valentine's. I want you at my party. K have a new gown-pink with lace paper frills like a Valen- tine. and silver hearts strung all over it.

”Do you really want me. Anne?”

she hedized a bit. "I want you at

thanked the parishionai-a and ex- pressed the wish that he might be back to visit tihrn in the near future. Father Gallant said that he would be leaving by Tuesday morning for Cheticamp. Caipe Breton. where he is to take up duties as assistant priest.

The address:

Rev. Father Sylvere Gallant, Rev. and Dear Fhiher:

It was with feelings of regret that we listened -to the official announcement "Father Gallant is leaving Vernon River." 'I1hough the rumor had been current for some time. we had hoped it might only be a rumor. But alas for vain liopes!

A little over a year ago. you came amongst us. a complete stranger. but by your pleasant

personality and congenial manner you soon won the respect and al- fectlon of every one of us.

As our curate, you were always ready to oblige and assist us in our religious duties. To the aged. infirm and sick you were encour- agement and consolation.

To the youn people a leader and an example. To the children a dear. fatherly friend. To the choir you were ever ready to lend your vocal talents as well as to direct and assist in the training of fut- ure candidates. Nor can we over- look the assistance you so freely gave to our social action. By your

cash only

untiring efforts and talents you have helped the parishioners of Vernon River in every evocation of life.

And now. dear Father, before we close we ask you to accept thesee small gifts. not for their value. but only to assure you of our loving and good wishes. -We hope that in your new field of labour you will be blessed with health and strength and that God may shower you with abundant bless- ings. and that you may always re- main the priestly iiharacter you have been whilst amongst us.

When you stand before God's Holy Altar as an "Altar Christus" we ask you sometimes to remain- ber the people at Vernon River Parish.

We hope that you may some- times come back to visit with us either in the church or in our home. and you may rest assured that you will always find a gen- erous welcome.

And now. dear Father. we say "Au revoir” and "God Bless You."
