In this aplendour. Rosaline would ahine the more. But how to find her n sueh a throng, and all masked? No matter: he would know his Rosaline anywhere. His every sense was alive to tha beauty of this night His ear. de lighted in the music; and the sweet sounds from the small violins, and lutes, heightened his ardor for Rosaline. He looked again toward the dan cars. Leading the procession and forming the pivot of the dance waa a girl of marvelous slenderness and graco. Though she was masked, he sensed that her face must repeat the beauty of her figure and move ment Dancing with her was a young man whose proprietary air betok ened claim upon this lovely lady. From whispered comment he gath ered these two were Juliet and Paris. Who was this Juliet? All thought of Rosaline vanished Into thin air as he watched her who danced more as a fairy than a wo man. She continued the Intricate figures of the dance with matchless grace, and in a new design was brought by her partner to the foot of the stairs, her face toward Romeo. At that moment came the must clans' signal to unmask. The girl, her mask in hand, raised her head to meet Romeo's ardent gaze. All consciousness of time and space was lost as an answering ardor dawned slowly in her eyes. She turned in confusion to her escort and with htm made her hasty way across the room. Romeo beckoned his link-boy. , "What lady's that which doth en rich the band of yonder knight?" he asked. "I know not sir." He would have followed them, had not Benvollo, who stood behind -him, held him back. They were now unmasked Montagues among Capu- lets; , better, not to pursue a maid already claimed as this one seemed to be, Romeo shook off his restrain ing hand.

This keynote was struck at the Older Youth conference held at State College last week and attend ed by 101 North Carolina farm boys and girls from Perquimans County in the east to Haywood in the west. ' The family as an institution is the bulwark of the Nation, but in the big cities the family is breaking down, said Dr. 0. E. Baker, of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. While the birth rate is declining seriously elsewhere, it still exceeds the death rate on southern farms, and in 100 years, he said, most of the nation's population will have des cended from southern stock. "You young people hold in your ' ' : 'Afe .j S! ,W A 4 1 , 5 ?,"' i ,) jr, I m w twin MA hands the destiny of the Nation," he declared, "and you have wiihin your power the ability to build ud u coun try that will" endure through the ages." j. ?
