SONIA
A Story of Dangerous Love
At a party SONIA MARSH. 17 and pretty, is discovered kissing JOE CARTER in a dark bedroom. Joe pleads with her to marry him to escape the scandal in Stockman, but Sonia refuses. Through DR. DON STILLWATER. Sonia obtains a position in the San I 1 ’ ran - cisco real estate oilier of JJCD THOMAS, his uncle. MAXINE LARUE, bead of her department. invites Sonia as well as VIOLET, TERN. JINNY and FRANKIE to her liquor party. Sonia attends a dance at Giandijas with BERTIE DONOHUE, where she meets FRANKLIN CRANE, with whom she is immediately infatuated. Crane, ".hose mother is wealthy, is addicted to periodic drinking spells, and keeps his position in their office because his father was a friend of Jed Thomas; Maxine and her middle-aged friend. MAO MacGKEAGOR. are reconciled aft(l WALTER - D. HENDERSON, a wealthy bachelor of Bcrk ey. does not approve of Sonia living with Maxine, but Soma insists there ts no harn\ , Sonia reluctantly breaks a date with Crane to entertain her father during his fi ‘ that SIDNEY MAINE of hor homo town, is engaged to TOM UNDERWOOD, who had once proposed to her. CHAPTER XIV Sonia went back to her desk, sinking inwardly with excitement. But silently: She dared not even whisper to Maxine the news of her mysterious raise in salary. “Jed Thomas is human after all," she told herself. “He was pleased by that little speech of Dad's. And I tried my best to drag poor old Dad away. I ought to be ashamed.'' The knowledge of her secret brouglft color to her cheeks and made her eyes shine. “Five dollars a week will be S2O more a month,’’ she figured. “I will begin saving for some new idothes." Her mind was busy with the problem of how many mouths it would take to save enough for another her mental shopping tour to the sound of Bertie's voice. “Have you even stopped speaking to me, Sonia?’’ “Don't be foolish, Bertie. You know I haven't.” "You certainly whizzed through the office without seeing me just now." His pale eyes shone with reproach. Sonia was penitent. “I'm sorry. I was just thinking about something else f that’s all. This is my busy day, Bertie.” “Every day seems to be busy, so far as I'm concerned.” He managed to touch her shoulder with one cold hand. Sonia put down her pencil and lean ad back in her chair. “What's the matter with you, anyway? You look at me like a dying calf every time I come around. 1 haven’t done anything to you that I can think of.” . She had chosen her''"words deliberately, hoping to anger him into leaving her. In spite of her first determination to be kind, the touch of his hand had angered her. “I can’t bear him,” she shuddered, mentally. Bertie's face was livid. “You'll regret the way you’ve treated me! You'll see, my pretty 'ady! The time will come when you may he glad to accept a favor from even a dying calf.” A Shiver of apprehension ran through Sonia's nerves. She should not have antagonized Bertie. She had wanted so badly to maintain at least amicable relations with everyone in the office. But he was always touching her. Then, in spite 'of her resolutions, she would lose her head and strike out at him. ‘Look here,* Bertie,” she said again in a different tone, "you shouldn’t talk like that to me. How can you expect me to like you when you're always getting angry?” "You try to make me angry, don’t you?” Sonia sparred for time. “Besides, all the girls here are watching you. It’s awful eniharassing for you to come up here and jump on me like this. What do you supose they think?" "You don’t care what anyone thinks, do you?” “Oh course. I do! I don’t wajit them to see us quarreling.“ , “Give me a chance to lee you away from here, then.” “But why should I? What can you possibly have to say to me?’ “You were glad enough to go out with me when you first came to San Francisco.” “I’d be glad enough now. But you spend all the time we’re together either criticising me or my friends.” “I said what I did for your own good. And you’ll realize it some day." “T don’t need yow for a grandmother, Bertie,” she said insolently. The eyes of every girl In the balcony were fastened upon them. Sonia determined to settle Bertie once and for all. "I’ll meet you at Townsend's this noon,” she said coldly, “and pay for my. own lunch. Understand. If you have anything to say you can do it then. I won't have you coming to my desk bothering me.” He was waiting for her when she reached Townsend’s. They sat down at a small table and ordered sandwiches and coffee. “Now, Bertie," Sonia said sensibly, “I don’t want to have you angry with me. You were awfully nice to

me when I came and I did appreciate it.” “You did—past ten % sc?” “I do now. But you can’t follow me around quarreling with me. It will get us in bad at the office." “Who is it you're afraid to have see us? Franklin Crane?” “I told you before to leave him out of it!” she cried furiously; “he has nothing to do with you and me.” “Oh, hasn’t he? But it’s on account of him that you’ve refused to go out with me again." “But it isn't, Bertie. It’s because I you spoke against him as you did. Behind his back. I don't like gos- ! si h'” ,r Bertie’s smile was bitter. “There’s no use beating around the bush with me, Sonia. I can read you like a book. I’ve been crazy about you ever since I \jnet you at Maxine’s. And you liked me well enough until ou saw Crane. You haven't looked at any one else since." The waiter brought their order. Sonia ate silently. She had begun to doubt her ability to calm Bertie. When they had finished, she looked at him stonily. “So it’s to be war from now on?” His pale eyes glistened. He leaned across the table, saying earnestly, “Not if you'll be reasonable, Sonia. I admit I’ve been jealous of Crane, but it’s because he’s made you treat me differently.” “That isn't true, Bertie. My attitude toward you was just the same until you started nagging at me.” “Then will you forgive me and start all over again?” “I'll be glad to forgive you—” Sonia hesitated at sight of fire that leaped into his face. “But that doesn't mean,” she added, "that I’ll go out with you. I much prefer that we should be friendly when we are thrown together, but I just don’t want to accept anything more from you, Bertie.” “Then your forgiveness doesn’t mean a thing!” Sonia jose, taking her check with her. > “I was afraid you’d feel that way. But at least you must stay away from my desk during business hours.” “You needn’t worry.” he sneered, following her, “you won’t be annoyed oy my presence anywhere.” In the Street they separated. Sonia's heart was heavy as she returned to the office, it was ridiculous to care what Bertie thought or said. But his threats aroused strange fears. A sense of remote disaster loomed over her. “I mustn't be so silly,” she told herself, swinging down Market St. "Bertie can’t possibly hurt me. Pooh! If I worry like this over every man I turn down I'll be a nervous wreck.” As she went through the office she passed Crane's desk and he stopped her. “Will you stay down for dinner tonight? .Just as you are?” Slip agreed, and went back to her department, but without the joy her first engagement with him had brought. Bertie, in some ridiculous fashion, had spoiled it for her. That night when she and Crane passed through the outer office Bertie met them at the outer door. “Nighty-night, Bertie,” Franklin called to him. “Good-night. Crane,” Bertie answered courteously. His eyes, meeting Sonia’s, were baleful. (To Re Continued.) Building Permits S7OO. rry Tha,man - front. 111!) E. Tenth. Yom. MOO 13 ""' Karaßß ’ 1310 W ’ Tori; C sß 000 n ' dwe " ins - 1310 W.

WEEKLY SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Moses By His Work Is Justly Honored in Death
The International Uniform Sunday School Lesson for Oct. 17. Moses Honored in His Death. Dent. 3*1:45-52. BY \YM. E. GILROY. D. P., EdKor of The Congregationalist A philosopher once was asked his opinion concerning the life of a certain man. He declined to appraise that life because, as he said, "I do not know his end.” There is a deep sense in which the whole course of life must be taken in judging a career, and death is often the seal and climax of a noble activity. The Scriptures express this fact in various ways. We have it in our golden text: “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the life of his saints.” (Ps. 115:16.) And we have that very beautiful tribute to the good life. “The path of the just is as a shining light that shlneth more and more unto the perfect day.” Proverbs 4:18.) On the other hand there sense in \Ehich no life is to be judged by ' its ending alone. How often men seem to outlive their usefulness or some strange infirmity comes upon them that ends a notable activity and influence. There are mysteries here that the human mind cannot fathom. But God will see our careers and personalities in their right light. JCragedy All this is very aptly related to the story of the death of Moses. In a sense there is an element of tragedy and disappointment in the circumstances attending his death. To have led the .children of Israel to the promised land with such selfsacrificing courage and devotion seems an achievement that ought to have had its reward in the entrance into that land himself. To our human judgment no temporary lapse from all that was best in Moses should have interfered with that natural and beautiful climax to his career. But the issue was to be different. Moses had the privilege of viewing the promised land, but he was denied entrance into it. -- Men in ancient times were given to reading into the course of events

the will and action of the Almighty in a way that perhaps was not always warranted. Who can know the thought and the mind of God? The writer of the Book of Job made a vigorous protest against the religious philosophy his time that presumed to see the hand of God expressing displeasure wherever men were called, upon to suffer penalty or pain. May we not view the death of Moses even as we view his life with the full realization that God was with him In the end even as God was with him in the beginning and through of his active career? The failure of Moses to enter the promised land in which he had such

f profound faith and toward which he j had led the people with such courage is, however, in itself symbolic of what is constantly happening in life. We are all engaged, if we are true ■ and faithful men, in enterprises larger than ourselves the end and fulfillment of which we shall never see. It is, not our reaching the goal, but the faithfulness and courage with which we perform our task in progress, that counts. Dying in Faith Here is the soldier, fighting for a great cause, wounded and dying in battle. He does not know what will be the issue of events. ITe does not know even how that battle will turn out in which he has received his mortal wound. But he dies in faith that the cause that he has served will triumph in the end. Progress comes largely Through such faithful and zealous service given regardless of and of reward. Possibly if Moses had entered the promised land there might not be *n his life such striking teaching for lesser mortals who follow in his footsteps but who never come, like him. to that climax which they seek and for which they pray. There is a certain glory that attaches to the faitji Jhat enables a man to die, fully confident that the cause that he has served is larger than himself, and fully prepared to leave the future with Almighty God. This is the glory that surrounds the death of Moses, and even in seeming defeat there is something that matches the most triumphant epochs in his caroeg. DEDICATION OF SCHOOL Ceremony Sunday at New St. Paul Evangelical Lutheran Building. Dedication of \he new $89,000 chool building of the St. Taul Evangelical Luthern Church. Weghorst and Wrights Sts., will be held Sunday afternoon, following a parade from the old school grounds, 709 S.
