Sometimes the jumps were short when the trees were growing close together. Sometimes the jumps were so long that he just barely reached the branch that he was jumping for. Once he failed to reach it and fell, but caught him- self on at branch below.

Behind him came svplte. He was coming fast, but didn't seem to be hurrying. He was running easily and he was jumping easily. The jumtxs that were long for Chattterer were easy for Spite. He had quite made up his mouth for a Ssuirrel din- ner. and it looked very much as if he were going to get it. Chatter- er had hadmany frigvhts in his life, but never had he been more fright- ened than he was now. Oh. how he wished he had kept that tongue of his still! It was his tongue that had led him into this dreadful trouble. That is one trouble with noisy tongues.

The ensuing awkward silence was resolved suddenly and even more awkwardly.

"For heaven's sake. Gerald!" she said furiously, "tell that boy to get me some really hot water! It's as tepid -as it was yesterday!"

Gerald smiled lopsldedly at the missionary, and his wile saw him. "I'm sorry," she went on. "I know I oughtnlt to be seeing visitors in this sort of undress-but Gerald's so hopeless as an emplcyer of lab- our! Hurry up, Gerald!" . Gerald Havelock moved unensl towards the door leading to the servants' quarters, and the next moment Sheila's door had slammed behind her.

The frown deepened on Patrick James's forehead as he turned to see Gerald browbeating an im- passive Chinese houseboy. who fac- ed him with bent shoulders, hands enveloped in voluminous sleeves. and a face as blank as a mask carv- ed out of faintly dlscoloured ivory.

It looks as if the boys and girls who gather each Friday night at the "Y" are in for a real break. The Phalanx Club. a group of young business men who meet weekly at the "Y", has agreed to provide leadership and ideas to improve this program. From 90 to 150 small types make this a. regular event each week, and the Phalanx boys oouldnlt have chos- en a more worthwhile project. May we pause here to remark on -the splendid work of the Phalanx boys at Christmu time when they spent a great deal of time and energy to pack , boxes that brought a happier Ohristmas in

Leslie Dale's mouth twitched. but the missionary. like Queen Victoria, -was not amused. Gerald Hnvelocks fingers were tightening round the handle of his crop.

"I suppose," said he thickly, "you find this amusing. Ping-Pong. or whatever your name is! I don't. you know. Get it-and get it quick!" The Chinaman bobbed his head. grotesquely puppet-like.

"Can do." he said. in his thin sapless voice, and shuffled out of the room. e

"I'll be seeing ycu to-morrow. I-lavelock." said Patrick James urt- certainly.

He received no reply. and went out on to the veranda.

inside the room Gerald I-laveloek and Icslle Dale faced one another, the former, flushed and savage. It was as though a curtain. until that moment invisible and unacknow- ledged, had been torn down be- tween the two men, impelling the recognition of scmething mutually and altogether intolerable.

LAST WORDS OF ADVICE

Yet, when Leslie spake, his voice were its usual quietly lmpassive tone.

"You know. Gerald."'he said. "as I've told you before. you'll never get results from your boys till you can talk to them in the vernacular." A close observer might ave seen a. tiny pulse beating in Gerald l-lavelcck's right temple.

"I can manage. thanks."

"It doesnt look to me as if you can!"

Gerald jerked up his chin. "well after to-day you won't have to look on at my incompetence, Dale, so you needn't worry!" "Why." demanded Leslie. quite so offevnsive?"

"I don't mean to be offensive. But I oa.n't help being a bit raw! I know you mean well-but you do rub it in whenever you get the chance. don't you?"

Leslie Dale put his hands in his pockets. and sat down in the corner of the big desk.

"l don't care about how raw you are." he observed quietly. rm only thinking of ycur comfort, and your wife's, after I've gone."

"That," said Gerald. "is extreme- ly kind of you. But I came to Tan Pu to get out of leading-str' 1 . I want to run my own show. I always have wanted to -and this is my first chance."

Leslie Dale's temper mowed ma. denly. . "Then why the deuce don't you begin to take your chance?" he re- torted. "You don't even take the trouble to be punctual at the office. nor to learn how to handle the servants."

"That." said Gerald savagely. "is almost a good joke. As if you haven't done every anwtal thing to R699 me under your thumb ever since I turned up here. what's the gcod of my trying to do anything. when l've got you to tell me how

Speaking of Saturday reminds us that about 35 of our youngest JTlCl'I'1lbEl'8 showed us a fine lesson in cooperation last week. When one of the atatfd members was sick. the juveniles helped to run their own gym program on Saturday morning. They came through with flying colors and some of them are looking forward to more rc- sponsiibllity in the same program.
