Mabel watched him as he touched a button mentioned his name, and put his ear to the opening. "It is Snowford's secretary," he said abruptly to the two expectant faces. "Snowford wants to ah!" Again he mentioned his name and listened. They heard a sentence or two from him that seemed significant. "Ah! that is certain, is it?

Caldecott, Maxwell, Snowford, with the European delegates even melancholy-faced Mr. Francis himself, the Government ceremoniarius, received a greeting.

Oliver nodded abruptly, looking curiously at the eager pathetic face of the man opposite him; yet it had something, too, of that mask-like priestly look that he had seen before in others like him. This was evidently a devotee. "You are all Masons, of course?" he said. "Why, of course, Mr. Brand." "Very good. I will speak to Mr. Snowford to-day if I can catch him." He glanced at the clock.

You said exactly what was in all our hearts that the world could not live without worship; and that now that God was found at last " Oliver waved his hand. He hated even a touch of flattery. "It is very good of you, Mr. Francis. I will certainly speak to Mr. Snowford. I understand that you offer yourselves as as Masters of Ceremonies ?" "Yes, sir; and sacristans.

He looked on the tube, touched the button again, and came back to them. "I am sorry," he said. "The President will take no part at the Feast. But it is uncertain whether he will not be present. Mr. Snowford wants to see us both at once, Mr. Francis.

Then, with a flash of dusty green, the Common bad vanished, and a pavement of house-roofs began to stream beneath, the long lines of streets on this side and that turning like spokes of a gigantic wheel; once more this pavement thinned, showing green again as between infrequently laid cobble-stones; then they, too, were gone, and the country was open beneath. Snowford rose, staggering a little.

"I have no idea," he said. "I suppose Mr. Snowford will select." Mr. Francis looked at him doubtfully. "What is your opinion of the whole affair, sir?" he said. Oliver paused a moment. "I think it is necessary," he began. "There would not be such a cry for worship if it was not a real need. I think too yes, I think that on the whole the ritual is impressive.

There would be no stopping for at least a day and a night. Further instructions had reached them from the President on the previous morning, by which time He had completed His visitation, and received the assent of the Emergency Councils of the world. This Snowford commented upon in an undertone, and added a word or two as to details, as the four stood together looking out over the city.
