" Earlier In the evening, Walker had had Billy, as the prospecHaley tive husband of his niece and ward, Jane, to his home as a dinner guest Upon reaching the house, Billy had been assigned a room for his convenience. Dinner ended, Jane reminded Billy of the passing time, and he hurried upstairs for his things. When they returned, Uncle Walker, Aunt Anne, and Jack and Hazel, their son and daughter, arose to view the new purchase and offer felicitations. An observing one might have cau?ht Uncle Walker giving Jane a sly wink, which she as slyly returned. Billy was downcast, and Jane at least seemed so. Aunt Anne exclaimed: "Why, Billy, what is wrong? Did Jane back out?" "Not as bad as that but almost. I have lost the money I intended to buy the ring with." He hesitated. Jane took a seat and assumed a disappointed but resigned air. Uncle Walker seated himself by Billy. "Do you and Jane think you can make a go of it on your salary-h- ow much Is It?" "Sixty dollars a week, and we have It all figured out haven't we, Jane?"

"Before we take up the election of officers for next year," Maxlne announced, "I want to review with you a little of what we have done this past year. "It was at our last January meeting that we decided that good times alone would not keep our club alive. Then it was suggested that we carry the Christmas spirit through the year by considering the 25th of every month a 'Christmas anniversary, and doing some act such as we would do If it were really Christmas time. "On January 25 we helped the Stone boy get a new suit; on February 25 we took out and cooked a real Christmas dinner for the Perkins family; on March 25 we arranged to buy music for the postman's boy, and got Mr. Williams to give hlra free violin lessons, and by the way, I understand he is fchowliig real talent.
