Tiggie Turner, returning to England from India, finds pretty (tola hi or man on shipboard, deserted by her husband and friendless. After frustrating her attempt at suicide, he learns she is to become a mother. He introduces her to friends of his on board, the Rutherford family, who take Viola with them upon their ar rival in England.

After locating Grierson's home in Putney, Turner is informed by the housekeeper that Grierson has «o sister living there but Haney, who is with Tiggie, catches sight of Viola entering the garden of the Grierson home. In the arbor of the garden Turner’s long search for Viola ends. Comforting her, she tnls him he would not understand why she hadn't written him. (NOW GO O.V WITH THE STORY) | CHAPTER 2f> *'OH, HAVE I?” said Tiggie. "Wei!, perhaps J have. But mining to my Mdses, as you call it., doesn’t neces sarily involve leaving rny friends in the lurch. I ran tell you, Viola”— he spoke her Christian name freely perhaps because in his thoughts of her since their parting he had never called her by any other—"if that’s how you think of me, you’ve got a wrong impression of me altogether.” “Oh no, I haven’t,” she said. She lifted her eyes to him wilh the words, and something in her look moved him deeply, though it no longer held fear. "I know you so very well. You're one of those peo ple who never—never —count the cost. That’s why ’’ Tiggie Interrupted her with a hot denial. "J’m not! I swear I’m not! You're quite wrong. I’m not that sort of fool.” "Oh. I never said yon were a fool,” she said. "I’m sure you’re not. But —no one is wise when he’s acting in the dark. And that’s what you’re doing, Captain Turner, though ’’ He interrupted her again. It. was odd that he always forgot to be cour teous in his dealings with her. “Don’t you coll rne that!" he said. "I’m Tiggie—to you!" She accepted ttie correction meek ly. "I meant, to say Tiggie, only you looked so fleice. Please—don’t you think you’d better go now? If Philip were to corne home " "You needn’t hold Philip over me," Tiggie told her grimly. “And let me tell you frankly. I’ve no intention of going until we’ve talked this thing out." "What, thing?" she said. "You.” Tiggie spoke with square emphasis, realizing that it was no moment for yielding. “You won’t put me off now. It’s no good trying. Besides, why should you? Surely I’ve as much right to know all about you as that confounded lawyer fel low I saw this morning!" "Philip," she said. "Yes, I suppose so—Philip." Tlg gie’a tone was aggressive. "He tried to stuff me with a lot of lies, but they only made me the mote deter mined to see you and find out. for myself." “What a pity!” she said with a sigh. “It Isn’t a pity!” Almost angrily ho contradicted her, “It would be fur worse to send me away believing what wasn’t true. Besides . .." jp. broke off, looking at her. "Yea?” she said, after a moment, h faint tinge of color showing in her thin face. Tiggie went, on more deliberately. **f think it’s a Jolly good thing f have found you. You’re looking hor ribly ill. Do you know that?” “I can’t help it," she said, avert ing her face. "Os course you can’t help it!" 'j’ig •fle’s voice held the old curious mix ture of indignation and compassion. "How oould you—when you’re mis erable and browbeaten and half atarved?" , “Oh, I’m not starved," she said, "j iWbaa, I could teat If I wanted to.

Something In her tone told him quite plainly what would never have been uttered in words. He bent and for the first time touched her, his hand upon her shoulder. “Viola!” he said, and again his voice shook beyond his control. “You’re not— trying!” She did not. attempt to contradict hirn, simply sat passive as a slave in his hold. After a few seconds she spoke, her voice oddly detached, Im personal. “When one doesn’t count any more—with anybody, it’s silly to worry, isn’t it?” “You do count!” said Tiggie. The words burst from him; he could not have stopped them had a pistol been held at his head. "You do! Do you suppose I’d have taken all this trou ble if you didn’t?” He paused, breathing heavily. She did not look at. him, but a slight quiver went through her. "You ought not to have done it,” she said. “Well, I Itave done it anyway,” asserted Ttggie. “And I’rn not sorry, see? It’s absurd to say you don’t count. You do. Everyone does. And you’re not going to be left to your own devices any longer. There’s Helen—and Spot—and sII the chil dren down in Cornwall w; nting you.” She shook her hear!, "i can’t go." “But why on earth not?" Tiggle spoke with insistence; there was no turning back wilh him now. "What’s to stop you?” She hesitated, then again she I shook her head. “It’s no use, Tiggle. I can’t. You’ve been much too kind to ine—far, far kinder than f de serve. You’ll have to take my word for it —and say good-by.” "I’m not going to,” said Tiggie flatly, but he spoke with gentleness. Who could be other than gentle with this poor little lonely soul! The pathos of her wrung his heart. "I’ve only just found you," he said. "You can’t want me to go again so soon." She did not answer him, only sat —his hand still upon her —dumbly waiting. "Well, look here!” said Tiggie. He was making no headway and abruptly he realized it and decided to plunge. "I’m not going, whether you do or not, because it’s quite evident to mo that you’re making a great mistake. Spot’s mother was to hlame in the first place. I wish to heaven I’d been near at hand.” “It wouldn’t have made any dif ference,” she said. "It would,” he declared. “I’d have done something to prevent you com ing here. That man Grierson—is he wsdly your stepbrother?” She bent her head. "Yes ’ 1 ‘ “The only person In the world yau'Ye got to turn to?” he pursued ; j'eleiUleiwdy, HENDERSON, (N. C.) DAILY DISPATCH, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1934 To provide spiritual shepherds for these multi* i udes Jesus selected twelve men from his disciples whom he chose to be his apostles and to whom lie gave power to heal all manner of diseases and to cast out evil spirits,. They were selected by Jesus a* host til for the task. “Yes,” she said agafu. "You poor liLtle thing!" said Tin gle, and suddenly his hand began to rub up and down on her shoulder, while he stroked her head with his other. A tremor went through her. She made a slight involuntary movement. "So you went to see him!” she said. “Os course I did!” said Tiggie. “Did you think a formal letter and cheque would be enough?” “it ought to have been,” she satC "Well, it. wasn’t, l’rn not fright ened away so easily. Ides don’t frighten me either.” Tiggie spoke with emphasis. "Hut if you don’t want me to know the truth, I’ll bo content not to know it. There! Only I’m not going to leave you to the tender mercies of a heartless tyrant till you die of sheer misery It may be no business of mine—as you’ve been too considerate to point out. Hut J’m going to make it my business. In fact, §o far as I'm con cerned, it always has been—ever since the day I first saw yon wait ing for that husband of yours on board The Pioneer.” “Ah!” She moved again, turning tier face completely from him. “That awful day! How—good you were! And you believed me too.” “I always believe you,” said Tiggie simply. He saw her breast heave. “That’s bee au s e—you’re so honest—and straight yourself,” she said. "It isn’t at all,” he objected. “It’s because I know you.” She made a gesture that was al most agonized. “What ir you don’t know me? Tiggie. what if I’m not —what you think? What if—what Philip told you—is ail true?” "You don’t, know what he told me,” said Tiggie. “Yes—l do.” She spoke with in creasing effort. “And—and though he’s hard —terribly hard, lie’s not « liar.” She began to soli—heavy long drawn sobs that shook her from head to foot. "tie’s told you the truth—as he sees it. You you haven’t believed him. Rut—that doesn’t make it —a lie!” Her utterance, was suddenly choked; she covered her face while an agony that seemed too great for tears convulsed her whole b?ir.g. Tiggie hung over her deeply con cerned. “Don’t, child, don’t! You mustn’t. You’ll make yourself ill.” lie poured out the words over her bowed head. “Riston—listen! That isn't wliut matters now. It’s the fu ture we’ve got to deal with, not the past. I’m going to help.” “Tiggie,” she said, forcing her voice to some measure of steadiness, “you say you believe what I tell you. Well, I must tell you everything, that’s all. And then—l just want you to go away. I can’t bear »t —1 1 you don’t.” tTO CONTINUED) This little verse may nelp you remember them.

Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send *«r*h laborers into his harvest." (The International Uniform Lesson, on the above topic for February 25 is Matt. 9:35-11:1, especially 9:35-10:8, 32, 33, the Golden Text Leing 9:37, "The harvest indeed is plenteous, but the laborers are few. Pray ye there fore the Lord of the harvest that he send forth laborers into his harvest.” By DR. ALVIN E. BELL Our Lord’s enunciation of the prin ciples of his kingdom, made by him in his Sermon on the Mount in Chap ters 5 to 7, has been followed by his demonstration of his kingship and au thority by miracles in every conceiv able realm, 8:1-9:31. Now the time ha? come for enunciation and demon stration to be applied to evangeliza tion, 9:35-11:1. The need of evangelization is found in humanity’s pathetic helplessness without Christ. "When he saw the multitudes, he was moved with com passion for them, because they were distressed and scattered, as sheep not having a shepherd.” Such leadership sb they had proved its unworthiness in its opposition to Christ. Ret the peoples eagerness to know the truth from him made him see in then a “harvest truly plenteous" for which he asked them to “Pray the Lord of the (harvest, that he send forth laborers into his harvest.” With this burden of humanity’s need calling in prayer for the enlargement of his forces, our Lord calls 12 men to dedicate themselves as evangelists to reproduce in many paths his three fold ministry of teaching, preaching and healing. Here, as always, for as he called the 12 "he gave them au thority over unclean spirits, to east it ham out, and to heal all manner of sickness.” The names of the 12 ajpos tles may ibe remembered thus: "Jesus called them one by one. Peter, An drew, James and John; next comes Philip, Thomas, too. Mattew and Bar tholomew; James the one they call The Less, Simon, also Thaddeus; twelfth apostle Judas made. Jesus was by him betrayed." The impor tant. thing, however, is not. so much who the 12 were, but rather who it was who made these obscure and Greater Variety Os Trees In N. C, Than Anywhere Else College Station, Raleigh, Feb. 23. North Carolina forests are said to contain a greater variety of trees than any other State. On Smith’s Island, off the mouth of the Cape Fear river, are calbbage pal mettos, a sub-tropical tree, while on the mountains of western part of the iState are spruce and balsam suggest ing the cold of the arctic circle. R. W. Graeber, extension forester at State College, said that between the two extremes some 200 species of trees are found. Southern hardwoods, loblolly, and pond pines in the east blend into longleaf pines of the sand hills, which give way f° shortleaf pines and mixed hardwoods of the Piedmont, and then the northern hardwood types and white pines of the mountains. North Carolina also has a number of giant trees, although not. so many as formerly.

They were to take only the most necessary clothing, trusting to God’s provision for them as they went from city to city. iGOLpEN TEXT—Matt. 9:37.38) ordinary men what they became. It is not the men but the Man who is Im portant in their work of ours. The Commission to Evangelize In his commissio nto them to evan gelize Christ told them where to go. viz, "to the lost sheep of the house of Israel;” he told them why to go. viz., “The Kingdom of heaven is at hand .... freely ye have received, freely give;” he told them how to go viz., “Beware of men,” because they were God-sent, God-sustained and they were to he God like. “It is enough for the disciple, that, he be as his master. They were to “fear them not,” but they were to keep close to God that they might be his mouthpiece: “What ye hear in the ear, proclaim upon tho houstoips.” This work of evangel ism calls for sacrifice: "Ho that doth not take hi cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.” But evangelism has its rich rewards: "He shall in no wise lose his reward."

In this forest are trees some of which range from 45 to 60 inches in diameter five feet from the ground and towering from 100 to 150 feet in the air.
