Don’t forget the Senior Class wel comes you FRIDAY NIGHT AN EASTER REUNION HIGH in the church amphithea ter hung the choir loft, and at its rail that bright Easter morning stood the church •uartet. The organ pealed forth the strains of the opening anthem—one of those divine compositions of Mozart which make the pulse of*the righteous beat more quickly and cause the ungodly to think anew—and after it had been sung the singers took their seats, separat ing, the two higher voices to the right the two lower to the left side of the organ. Herr Steinbuch. the organist, retired behind the organ, drawing from his pocket as he did so a copy of a Sun day newspaper. He was musical editor of the sheet and hastily scanned its pages for an article, "The Decline of the Fugue." which he had written the Friday pre vious-toiling far into the night that it might be concluded in time for the is sue of Sunday. The pastor began his Easter sermon, but the singers paid small heed; each was busy with his or her own thoughts. In the eyes of Mateel Stuart, the con tralto, came a faraway look as she sat beside her giant husband, the basso. She was thinking that but three short years before she had gone from that church a bride, leaning proudly upon his arm. And now? Yes, she was happy, she reasoned, though her stalwart husband had. unconsciously perhaps, dropped IN THE EYES OF THE CONTRALTO A BRIGHT LOVE LIGHT BURNED. those little courtesies and attentions which usually play so delightful a part in newly wedded life. Not that Stuart was discontented, but his lack of appreciation of the con tralto was caused by a lack of thought, no doubt Manlike, he was selfish, though it must be said of him that he had always proved what is known as a "good husband.’’ in the commonly ac cepted meaning of the term. For the first time in months Stuart thought that perhaps he did not place a sufficiently high value upon his wife when his attention was attracted to the other side of the choir loft. Some thing unusual was going on there ap pareutly. John Crayton and Marian Griffin were seated together, and the soprano was so interested in what Crayton was saying to her that she failed to note the gaze of the basso. Marian had known Crayton for a number of years, but had never looked upon him as a suitor. And now as she felt his breath upon her cheek, heard his earnest words, his appeal for a reply, she could only east down her eye* until their long black lashes seemed to throw a shade over her face. The tenor seized her hand at the con clusion of his passionate entreaty aad was rewarded by a slight—a very slight—pressure, which told him that he had not pleaded in vain. Then it was that Stuart placed his great hand upon his wife’s arm and. leaning toward her, whispered gently: “My darling. I realize now that 1 have been neglecting you, but I have not meant to do so; it was only that 1 didn't think.” la the eyes of the contralto a bright love light burned, and she patted the * the big basso with a loving hand w> touch. The droning of the minister suddenly ceased.*land the rustling of the people below as they turned in the pews told that the sermon was at an end. The ckwing hymn was announced, and when tt waa finished the ainatn A Mogul Oil Tractor for $675 You can now buy an International Harvester AH-Purpose Farm Tractor with 8-H.
