The sound isy guy blue and gleaming in the moonlight, with little boats, and Jaisei boats of the nearest boat club rocking at anchor, a big autumn moon was pushing redly up the sky. Vhe four acres of Kentwood wafers iav orderly and pretty beyond them; the quaint colored houses, a full dozen by now, ready for occupancy with their green lawns, their land leaping, their lighted porches, had an air of ctmipleteuess and security and youthful prosperity. The big community house was all alight, and the parking space to one side of it •was nearly full of cars already. The bathing beach had been completely reclaimed, ami the cabanas were! complete, too this was a late autumn, there would be at least a ! fortnight, perhaps a month, more of I bathing red and yellow awnings.; big bright umbrellas, had been set ; up or left up this night to show how ttie shore would be by day.

There was a very nice or chestra, the one from the Manor * Country club, indeed, playing airs j from "Roberta" and "AH the King’s ' Horses.” Above it, the satisfied chat ter of an eating populace roared. She scanned them. Yes, most of the Manor people. A lot of the Fern wood Gardens people. All the young er ones she did not know must be J the new Ferrtwood Waters pur ' chaters. She loooked along the table at which she was sitting; there in a tailcoat was Red DeFries, beside him the honey-blonde, comely, tall giil in j green, his Marge. There were Jerry . and Mary Martin. Mary in a maroon ' velvet with no back and no shoul- | | ders and long skin-tight sleeves, pos- ! i sossivel.v gav with Jerry.

On Ad | dison's farther side sat little Aunt Minnie in the black silk and old ! honiton I.eila had helped her get into 1 an hour before happy, flushed, and j quivering. Beyond Iter was the pres- * ident of the Manor Reach club and ! Mrs. Johnston-Hedges. On the far j | side of her was a vacant chair. There ! (was no proletatiat. None a* all.

P-TO-DATE Feb. 13. 1839 “An Act declaring the Rights and Liberties of the subject, end settlinge the Succession of th Crown" was presented by a committee of members of Houses of Commons and Lords to the prince and princess of Orange. Very important to all of us. for this was tip' “hill of rights.” next to the Magna Carta the greatest landmark in the constitutional history of Eng land and the keystone of our liber ties. It made ihe prince and princess joint-rulers of Britain, as William ITT and Mary, and established for the first time the right of free elections, free dom of speech, trial by jury and ap peal of sentence, and prohibited taxa tion without the consent of the gov erned. It became eventually a part of fed eral and state constitutions in the U. S. Feb. 13. 1.754—-Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Ferigord was born in Paris. He was the unfrocked priest, who had as much as anybody to do with "making" and "breaking’* Napo leon . He first won attention in Fiance and began his list with a report on commercial relations between Eng land and the United States, the fruit of 30 months of exile in this country, in which he observed that France need the spur to practical energy which Americans had at hand in the effort to subdue the difficulties placed in their way by nature. Feb. 13. i7BB The trial of Warren Hastings began. It continued through 145 sessions and seven years, vemace one of the.most famous trials in his tory. Robert Clive and Hastings, his suc cessor. won India for Britain. Both This was their reward. But Hastings, were ruined by British parliament, unlike Clive, did not commit suicide. Feb. 13, 184(1 .lean Marie Dunbarry was executed in Fiance for the mur der of his father. He was a man of no importance, and he would not be remembered today except for an extraordinary coinci dence: He met his death 199 years to the day after his great-grandfather who bore the same name, was exe ! ented for a similar crime.
