Sylvia of the Minute By HELEN R. MARTIN Copyright by Dodd. Mead & Co. WNU Service

STORY FROM THE START Handsome, fastidious and wealthy—young St. Croix Creighton awaits his sweetheart at their trysting place. She is fifteen minutes late, this ordinary little Pennsylvania Dutch girl, Meely Schwenckton, but he awaits her eagerly. She is so demurely beautiful, he thinks, but so out o/ his "class.” Despite her seen.ing innocence and ignorance, she succeeds in keeping him at a distance, to his chagrin. CHAPTER II Meely Schwenckton, hurrying back breathlessly through the October twilight to the farm house, lest the autocratic head of the house get in from the fields ahead of her and become suspicious of her goings-on, seemed to have undergone a transformation since she had left her lover. Not only had she managed, on the way home, to shed her cheap, gaudy frock of blue voile for a trim tailored suit, but also that veil of bovine dullness which her pretty face had worn had been replaced by a soft, bright amusement; her timid bearing, so abjectly expressing a sense of inferiority, was changed to a look of suppressed excitement, an air of intense vitality, which made her recent humility unimaginable. Reaching the kitchen porch of the farm house, she was brought up short as her hand touched the latch of the door, by the sound of a whining nasal voice within, reproaching and threatening, to the accompaniment of a child’s crying. Meely’s hand dropped from the latch and she stood listening, a look in her eyes of mingled distress and disgust “When your Pop hears how you done me dirt this after,” whined the nasal voice, “oh, but you’ll get the good whippin*, Lizzie Schwenckton! Oncet I tell him how you run out after school and let me with all the work, mebby you won’t ketch it with that there switch he keeps handy! Lettin’ me alone here with all the diapers and all the cleanin’ and cookin’ and his sick wife and baby to tend! Well!—of!—all!—things! Yes, if he don’t give you the worst switchin’ you ever had, then I don’t know the man” “Ach, Aunt Rosy, don’t tell him!” the child’s voice begged In gasping sobs. “I’ll help you now—l’ll do this here whole tub full of washin’—and I’ll wash all the supper dishes for you —you can just set and rest yourself—” “Well, I guess anyhow you'll wash the supper dishes after the smart switchin’ you're gettin’! That'll make you spry for a couple days. I guess, If my talkin’ at you don’t! You needn’t to beg me—” The nasal whine stopped short as the speaker became aware of a third person in the room, though she had not heard the opening of the door. There stood Meely, her back against the kitchen door, looking at Aunt Rosy with those bright, clear eyes of hers that somehow always cowed the woman, “giving her, unreasonably, a sense of guilt which she resented. Always she was resolving that she would not let herself be “downed” by this “high-minded hussy” who had no rights in this house anyway. “I’ll show her who's got rights here!” she daily determined. Yet she found herself just now. as always when confronted by the silent criticism of this girl’s confusing regard, trying apologetically to justify herself. “Mind you what Lizzie done yet! I give her the diapers to wash after school and she run out to play and let ’em. And me with all the cleanin’ and the supper to get and my sick sister’s broth to make and all—my lands! How kin I get through all when Lizzie runs out after school and won't help?” The big, warm, cozy kitchen which, like most farm kitchens of Pennsylvania, was also the family living room, was covered by a bright rag carpet and furnished with a roomy settee against the wall, several big, gayly painted rocking-chairs, a large decorated calendar labeled “Sweet Smiles” hanging from a cuckoo clock, a table spread for supper, a cooking stove on which sausage and potatoes were sizzling. The Schwenckton family, as well as all the neighboring farm families, had seen this kitchen become transformed in three weeks, under the temporary reign of Aunt Rosy during the confinement of Schwenckton’s young wife, from a spotless cleanliness to a messy untidiness and disorder which, in the eyes of the immaculate Pennsylvania Dutch housekeepers* was a scandal next only to Immorality and more unheard of. Aunt Rosy’s incompetent housekeeping, combined with her autocratic and unamiable attitude towards her sister's stepchildren (from which there was no escape nor appeal, since it was backed up by the Head of the House) had driven the elder son and daughter to rebel and run away; Nettie, the fifteen-year-old girl, having found refuge in the home of her grandmother and Jakey, seventeen years old, having disappeared entirely—to the genuine distress as well as inconvenience of their father to whom Jakey especially had been a great help on the farm. But the other two, Lizzie and Sammy, were too young to escape. The one soft spot about Aunt Rosy, apparently, was her devotion to her young sister, Susie, Mr. Schwenckton’s girl wife, whom she had “raised” from a baby. But although she Idol-

ized Susie, she completely dominated her. In all things Susie followed her elder sister’s advice and judgment and obeyed her, when she was with her, as much now as when, before her marriage, she had lived in Rosy’s home. Susie was the only person In the world who did not find Rosy repulsive. Ten-year-old Lizzie, a thin, delicatelooking child, was working frantically at a wash-tub at the far end of the cluttered, dirty kitchen, crying hysterically while she worked, terrified of the punishment hanging over her. Meely, going across the room to hang her jacket on a rack on the wall, spoke over her shoulder in reply to Aunt Rosy’s complaints, her pleasant tone and manner betraying none of the loathing she felt towards the woman. “But since you didn’t do the cleaning. Aunt Rosy (look at this kitchen!) nor the diapers, and kept Sammy home from school to wait on Susie, what have you done all day? And Mr. Schwenckton won’t like it. you know, that you’re having the diapers washed here in the kitchen where we have to eat —” It is to be noted that Meely’s accent and diction were not now so studiously Pennsylvania Dutch as when she had talked with St. Croix Creighton a half hour ago. The hint of foreignness in her speech was not that of the Pennsylvania Dutch at all. A heavy step on the porch at this instant was followed by the opening of the kitchen door and the entrance of the farmer In overalls. Lizzie’s crying was instantly choked back while she bent to her work more frantically than ever; and Aunt Rosy acquired suddenly a great air of industry about the stove and table. Mr. Schwenckton, closing the door behind him. stood surveying with disgust the disorder and dirt of the kitchen. A big, red-faced man of mild, though obstinate, countenance, he looked so good-natured that one might have wondered why his children were so afraid of him. But family discipline among the Pennsylvania Dutch is a religion; “spare the rod and spoil the child,” a dogma. Mr. Schwenckton had ever tried to perform his whole duty by the children God had given him to rear for His honor and glory in a heavenly home, the Scriptural prescription for accomplishing this being the only means he knew, disagreeable as he often found it—for he was withal an affectionate father; not naturally severe; only very conscientious; obstinate in the performance of what he saw to be his duty, however difficult. “Yi, yi, yi!” he shook his head and frowned at the dirty kitchen, “but you’re the dopple of a housekeeper. Aunt Rosy! You ain’t the nice housekeeper your little sister Susie is. Well. I guess anyhow not! Yi, yi. if the neighbors seen our kitchen so throughother yet!” “Yes, well, but when I tell you oncet how Lizzie won’t help along when I tell her to,” his sister-in-law complained as she began to dish up sausage and fried potatoes, while Mr. Schwenckton went to the sink to wash his hands, “you’ll see for yourself. Mister, how I can't get through all by myself. Lizzie she run—” “Lizzie!” the farmer broke in, raising his voice above the running water, “stop that splashin’ at the tub and come now to your supper.” “Ye-yes, sir,” the child stammered, her teeth almost chattering. As she dried her hands on her apron and came to the table, Aunt Rosy gave her a look as who should say, “You just wait! Don’t think because he cut me short that I ain’t tellin’ on you! You just wait!” “Where’s Sammy?” asked Mr. Schwenckton. “Upstairs settin’,” his sister-in-law

Cheapside First Home of Great British Bank

How came the bank of England to be built? And why the appellation “The Old Lady of Threadneedle Street?” Mr. H. Rooksby Steele, a well-known London architect, supplies the answers in an article on the architectural history of Britain’s bullion house. Many think that Sir John Soane, the wizard of Lincoln’s Innfields, built the bank. His are the girding walls, but in the raising of the fabric three other names—those of Sampson, Taylor and Cockerell—have to be joined. Mercer’s hall, Cheapside, was the bank’s first home; but a quick move was made to the Grocer’s hall, in Poultry, and it was not until 1752 that the foundation stone of the present bank was laid. George Sampson was the first architect, and it is curious that no building, other than the bank, can be attributed to his hand, a writer in the Cleveland Plain Dealer comments. In the cornice extending the full length of the building, Taylor sculptured an excellent figure of Britannia, some years after the completion of the building. "This carving, the ‘trade mark’ of the bank.” writes Mr. Steele, “was probably the inspiration for that trite appellation, Wearied of Old Song Should old acquaintance and old tunes be forgot? Not bj the judges oi a mouth organ coutest in London re cently. they say. As a preliminary test each of the 152 contestants was compelled to play “Annie Laurie.” and one judge said that after hearing It 152 times he sang it in his sleep. Players came from all parts of Great Britain. One entrant insisted on play ing in front of a mirror, and another swayed in semi-circle* he gave the Scotch classic

told him as she carried the food from the stove to the table. “With Susie. Susie she’s too poorly to be let alone, whiles I gotta be down here.” Mr. Schwenckton shook his head dolefully, his face, as it emerged from the roller-towel, looking deeply troubled. “Well, come everybody now and set. I want to get eat and hurry up to Susie.” During the long “blessing" invoked by the head of the house, after they were all seated, Meely’s was the only head unbowed. The expression of her face (while fulsome words of gratitude were directed to the throne of God) suggested anything but thankfulness as she surveyed the platter of sausage floating in a lake of grease, the burnt potatoes, the pale, heavy pie. At the “Amen” she rose at once, went to a cupboard and brought back to the table a fresh napkin for herself. The temporary housekeeper spoke up in self-defense against the implied criticism of this gesture on Meely’s part. “Well, if I did forget your napkin again, I must say 1 wasn’t raised to eat so hoggish myself that I need a napkin to my meals!” “You’ve got no need. Aunt Rosy," her brother-in-law mildly admonished her, "to speak so unpolite. Us we all know,” he added as they all began to help themselves, each one for himself, as was their custom, “that Meely was raised more refined than us." “Well, I wouldn’t go so far as to say that. Mister,” Aunt Rosy resentfully objected. “To call myself common yet toward what she is! I ain’t belittlin’ myself that much I I cert’nly consider myself as good as other ones; and so I likewise consider your poor, sweet, little wife. Sam Schwenckton! If she'd heerd you’d compared her to this here stranger and sayed she was common toward what tills here stranger is—" “Ach. Aunt Rosy, be peaceable,’’ Mr. Schwenckton checked this whining tirade. “Meely ain't ezackly a stranger to us, even if we didn't get acquainted with her till here this fall. You can't call a cousin a stranger yet!” “You ain't got no proof she’s your cousin. She don't look like as If she's your cousin. Nor act or speak like none of your cousins I ever met up with.” “Yes, well, you never met up with none of the Berks County Schweucktons. They're different too, again from us Schwencktons here In Dauphin county. They're better educated that way and more refined. Meely," he addressed their boarder, his tone anxious, his eyes worried, “how do you think my Susie is today?” "She can’t get better so long as you keep her room dark and don't air it, Mr. Schwenckton. Air end light are all she needs to get well” "Yes. well, but I don't hold with them doctors that says it s un^nnitarium to keep the windahs shut *ud the room dark when you're sick." Mr. Sehwem kt< n pronounced omeitsively—and from a conclusion once reached, a position once taken, the .er did not exist that could move ai Schwenckton. He drew a deep sigh. “I did hope Susie was gettin’ better for le after her lookin' so bright yeStenk y.” “The reason she was so much brighter and better yesterday ” said Meely, “was because when Aunt Rosy was taking a nap, I covered Susie and the baby with blankets and aired the room ! Threw open all the doors ami windows and left them open for an hour! Then I washed Susie and changed her nightgown and the bed linen. Siie and the baby slept after that for four hours! That’s why she was better yesterday.” (TO BE CONTINUED.)

the ‘Old Lady of Threadneedle Street.’ ” Taylor added to Sampson’s building, and in 1870 the Gordon riots led the directors to fear that the adjoining church of St. Christopher-Ie-Stocks might lend itself as a dangerous vantage point for a mob, so powers were obtained, the fabric was pulled down, and more extensions were made. Indian Fishing Methods The methods used by the Indians in fishing, before the advent of the white man, were quite modern. Starting from the simple device of attaching the bait to the end of a line, the progressive order of fishhooks used by the Indians seems to be as follows: (a) The gorge hook, a spike of bone or wood, sharpened at both ends and fastened at its middle to a line, a device used also for catching birds; (b) a spike set obliquely in the end of a plain shaft; (c) the plain hook; (d) the barbed hook; (c) the barbed hook combined with sinker and lure. This series does not exactly represent stages in invention; the evolution may have been effected by the habits of the different species of fish and their increasing wariness. The materials used for hooks by the Indians were wood, bone, shell, stone and cop per. The Mohave employed the re curved spines of certain species ol cactus, which are natural hooks. Unwelcome Immigrant The boll weevil is something th<s country has acquired from Mexico. Ii crossed the Rio Grande river in 1892 Since then it has been traveling from 40 to IGO miles each year, and now covers the greater part of the cotton states.

GOLDEN TEXT—He came unto his own and his own received him not. but as many as received him to them gave he power to become the sons of God. even to them that believe on his name. PRIMARY TOPlC—Friends Misunderstand Jesus. JUNIOR TOPIC —Friends Misunderstand Jesus. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC— Facing Unavoidable Opposition YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Misunderstood Jesus. I. Jesus Misunderstood by His Friends (3:19-21). 1. The occasion (vv. 19. 20). A series of importa.it events In the ministry of Jesus had followed each other in rapid succession. The twelve had been chosen, and lie with His disciples hud just returned from a trip of preaching and healing In Gall j lee. Such great interest was aroused that though Jesus was weary and hungry lie did not have time to eat. 2. What His friends purposed to do (v. 21). They wont out to lay hold on l”n. They saw Him giving Himself with absolute abandon to His work so they attempted to rescue Him forcibly by taking Him from His work. 3. What they said (v. 21). "He is beside himself." Uis passionate devotion to saving tiie lost seemed to them a kind of insanity. 11. Jesus Opposed by the Scribes (vv. 22-30). 1. Their charge (v. 22). They charged Him with casting out demons by Beelzebub. According to Matthew 12:22-24. the Pharisees Joined the scribes In this charge. The occasion which provoked the charge was the healing of a man ptwrsMd w ith h demon. Unable to explain His tin wearying service for needy men by attributing His zeal to religious frenzy, they accused Him of being In league with the devil. 2. Christ’s reply (vv. 23-27). He exposed their folly by a question and by parables. (1) “How can Satan cast out Satan?" If nfler Satan gets control of a man he should voluntarily re llnquish that hold he would thus become bls own eremy. In view of the nature of the devil, this is unthink able. (2) "If n kingdom be divided against Itself (bat kingdom cannot stand (v. 24). Civil war Is national suicide. A living example of this folly Is seen In Chinn today. (3) If a bouse be divided ngnlnst Itself, that house cannot stand (v. 25). House here means family. The fam fly that wars against Itself will surely perish. (-1) No man can enter Into a strong man's house and spoil tils goods except he first bind the strong man (v. 27). Satan here Is the strong man. the house is the world, the goods of the house are the human beings whose welfare and happiness Satan is seeking to destroy. 3. Christ’s charge (vv. ?S 30). Since He was doing the works of God (for before their very eyes He had driven the demon from the man) He was undoing the works of the devil. He went about doing good. Wherever He went men were blessed. The eyes of the blind were opened deaf ears were unstopped, the lame were made 10 walk nnd the dead (sere raised. Having with unanswerable logic met their accusations He charged home upon them most awful guilt, that of blasphemy against the Holy Ghost. Blasphemy against the Holy Ghost Is attributing the works of the Spirit to the devil. For this great sin there Is no pardon HI. Jesus Misunderstood by His Family (vv. 31-35). His brothers and mother came with the object of getting Him home because they thought He had lost His reason. Os course His brothers did not believe on Him as the Messiah, but their filial Interest moved them to try to get Him home. No doubt this was most painful to Jesus. Their motive may have been right, but they were used of the devil to hinder Him Growing out of this came that wonderful declaration, that relation to Christ is more vital than that of human kinship. IV. Jesus Misunderstood by His Fei low Townsmen (G:1-G). The citizens of Nazareth were unable to question the reality of Christ’s work and the power of His words, but because He was one of them they were offended at Him. This is a marvelous example of the blighting effects of prejudice. Because of this attitude of soul on the part of the people His wonder working was very limited among them. And He marveled because of their unbelief. Love of Ged For human love alone men and women have given up ease and luxurv for toil, poverty and privation; have given up position for obscurity: have chosen separation from kindred and friends. If human love be worth so much, what can be compared with that “love of God” which Is “shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost, which Is given us?” —J. S MacG. God’s Chart The Bible is God’s chart for rm to steer by, to keep you from the bottom of the sea, and to show you whore the harbor is, and how to reach it without running on rocks or bars. —11. W. Beecher. God and His Work God, who prepares His work through ages, accomplishes It, when the hour Is come, with the feeblest Instruments —Merle D’Aubigne.

DOLLAR SPORT IS RIDING TO DOOM If Professional Gaines Survive Promoters Must Watch Their Steps. Dollars, dollars, dollars, the root and weeds of all evil. Commercialized sports in the United States have readied a point where it behooves professional promoters to watch their steps. “In time, and the time is near, the word sport will come again to mean a contest for glory of the game's sake. It will include none of those enterprises in which a group of uniformed business men. working for another uniformed business man, go through the motions of a contest "It will mean people at play, kids on a sandlot, a round of golf between friends, boys playing for a treasured letter,” is one expression born of late disclosures. Back of professional sport is the greed for gold. Dollar sports, successfully promoted, bring a richer reward in a few years than a thriving business does in a lifetime. This easy money has lured many characters into professional sports who would be better off in seme other avocation. Many splendid fellows are back of professional at hit-lie promotions, but there are many in the "racket” who will go to any extreme to make money. Dirty or clean—it Is money to them. In their eyes, that is all that counts. Wrestling, horse racing, boxing, baseball, and now tennis and football, have heard the screech of the eagle, and they will survive only if kept under the strictest of regulation. Baseball Pilots Favor Concerted Team Spirit Some of the trading done this off season may have one result, as far ns the teams Involved are concerned. New combinations may be affected which will have "the will to win.” Major league pilots find that one of the biggest obstacles to hurdle in building a pennant contending team is to instill in the team a concerted team spirit. Miller Huggins, manager of the Yankees. explained bls views on the matter very tersely and clearly when tie was rebuilding the Yankees three years ago. “1 don’t cure how many members of my team have temperament, how many prims donnas 1 pick up. or anything about the personalities of the players, so long as every man lias the will to win." said Huggins. “The team I had had lost that desire, so the only tiling to do was to break It up." The immediate success of the newly organized team—even with rookies in the center of the infield —proved the wisdom of Huggins' words. Earl Combs Not Raising Sons to Play Baseball Earl Combs, hard-hitting outfielder of the X w York Yankees, while enthusiastic over tils own baseball career, does not Intend necessarily to raise Lis two sons to he ball players. “But if they should want to play baseball. It is all right with me.” he says. “I shall give them an education am! let them choose their own careers” Combs is lending the life of a Blue Grass country gentleman on his farm in Kentucky, and after his baseball days are over expects to return to this quiet life. That won’t be for a long time, though, for Combs declares, “I will play baseball until they take my suit away from me.” National League Makes O'Day “Umpire Scout” Hank O’Day, pitcher, major league manager and umpire over nearly a half century of connection with the national game, has a new job. The veteran arbiter was relieved by the National league club owners of all umpiring duties and appointed “general player and umpire scout.” His new duties remain to be definitely defined, but President John A. Heydler explained he will be free to investigate talent as well as look for umpiring recruits. Information of players scouted by O’Day, however, will be turned over to President Heydler, who probably will pass it on to the club owners as part of a new’ clearing house scheme.
