Also I find the cult of Melanthos multiplying itself at the tin temple of Saint Simon the Cyrenian. Mr. Smythe's cheeks became more deeply empurpled and his eyes danced.

But understand that neither the bishop nor any one else must know it. I told them all except Ryan, and I didn't like to tread on his religious toes." Belding laughed. "I should have guessed it. The thing was too easy, and Ryan came up to the scratch with the rest." In September the pro-cathedral was completed.

Leaving aside for a time Holland House, standing in beautiful grounds, which line the northern side of the road, and turning eastward, we find the Roman Catholic Pro-Cathedral, almost hidden behind houses. It is of dark-red brick, and was designed by Mr.

Filmer's melodious tenor never sounded better and the bishop's talk was straight to the point. This pro-cathedral, built out of love and faith, he told them, linked the old days with the new.

Presently the bishop caught the young engineer's eyes and beckoned. "Mr. Belding," he said, smiling, "I'm aware that you're very much occupied just now with important things, but I've been wondering, just the same, if you'd help me with something."
