DEN ALLEN. who declared be

, when there was so much to do
in the world of engineering and
forestry. in both of which he was
especially interested. had called the
new school teacher "The Hemlock
Girl." Perhaps it was because he
always met her on that mountain
trail where the hemlocks closed in
on either side.
She was the happiest girl he had
ever “met. and beyond the bare
friendly nod of recognition that she

So all through the beautiful au-
tumnal weather the forester fol- b

providing himself with books and
magazines for the long. snowed-in
period ahead. On this particular
morning the D'ecember sky was
gray and .heavy with snow. There
was a light snow covering the
ground now. and he would not be
surprised if his homeward trip at
night was accompanied by the
bowling of a. wild snowstorm. There
was a. little eerie whine to the
wind now with a rising note that
warned him. He wondered if he
had not better go back and warn
the school teacher to dismiss her
children early in the afternoon.
But she was already out of sight
among the distant trees and he
oculd not. even glimpse the flutter
of her scarlet scarf.
"She looks like a. sensible girl—
probably's been warned about these
mountain storms." he muttered, and
then dismissed her loftlly from his
mind. The children had been
granted a holiday because it was
so no r Christmas—and the Hem-
lock lrl had gone to the school-
house to decorate it for a. Christmas
party, ,

was swung off the trail and found
himself floundering in a thicket of
hemlock and spruce.
"Confound the hemlock!" he
roared. and into his open mouth
poured a flood of heavy flakes. A
thin voice near by sang out mock-
ingly: “Don't Waste your powder,
mister. Juat-comc—~and help—me!"
"Where?“ bellowed John Allen
lustiiy.
“Over here!” sang the voice, and
they collided. Both churning in
circles finally met and the smaller
furry form went right into John's
groping arms and nestled there.
“Where the dickens did you come
from 2'" he wanted to know.
' "School—snow—lost—wsy —— cold

shoulder was heavier and he knew

In a moment the rm was"
alert. He slung on the blanket roll
he carried. pat the blanket on the
ground and laid her there. Then
around her grouped the content: of
his pack so that theywould not be
lost. His small bright lantern 1 lat
showed a small hollow filling u.
snow. Beneath the snow would b.
pine needles. His arms worked like
nails and ‘when he had scraped
away the snow he tool: a poncho
from the pack and fastened the
corners to four mall trees making“
a light'roof. His hatchet cut and
slashed until he had great piles of
hemlock and pine bough- with which
e lined and walled the little
shelter. and last of all he carried
the blanket and its contents to the
hut. Just at the opening in the
shelter he scraped away a. place
and built a roaring fire. when he
went to revive the hemlock girl she
was sitting up. blinking lovely eyes
at the grateful warmth and bright.-
ness. ‘
“How wonderful it is—to come
out of that terrible storm into this
warmth and comfort. You are a
perfect—perfect_ pioneer!" How
lovely she looked there singing his
praises and inciting him to new
deeds of valor. in a. minute she
was beside him helping to make the
house ang and tight. making cof-
fee better than his own. sharing big
cup and spoon, eating out of the
same saucepan of thick tinned veg-
etable soup with lots of hard he]:
broken into it. For dessert he gave
her some sweet chocolate. and
through sharing the hardships and
making this little shelter they be-
came well acquainted enough to
joke stut the chocolate. When he
had washed all the dishes with
snow and everything was dried and
packed tidzly away. they sat and
talked until all the fury of the
blizzard seemed to have been ex-
pended. They knew each other like
old friends.
"You cannot pass me by with
that curt nod. Miss Gray. now that
we are real—may I say friends?"
he asked wistfuily.
"of course we are fflendHnd I
do wish you would lend me some
of the Digests you are always car-
rying to iind fro; I am hungry for
reading up here."
“All you want—didn't know you
even noticed me." he stammered.
They both laughed from sheer
llghtheartedncss. and soon after
they heard the distant hail of the
search party. Presently. Alice was
leaving. going down the mountain
trail with Doctor Smith and his
son, leaving John Allen alone stand-
ing beside the house they had built.
"What was the last thing she
said? Cute. too! ~‘Please don't tear
our house to pieces. Mr. Allen.’ As
if I ever would. bless her sweet
eyes."

The great man retains for all time

Paradoxical as this may seen at the
first impression. a little serious re-
flection and a turning back to the
mildewed pages of history will bring
forth this apparent absurdity clad

in the unfaded raiment of truth.
It takes a man of true nobility to
face defeat without exhibiting pique
or downright resentment, and who.
after he has lost his battle. can move
among his friends and enemies with
gentlemanly demeanor.
The foolish man who through
some unexpected stroke of fortune
has suddenly become rich. often ab-
ruptly turns his back upon his for-
mer associates and ends his days in
a miserable existence. His new at-
mosphere and surroundings are too
much for him to endure in becom—
ing peace and content. He snubs
and is snubbed in return. He whips
the lowly and the lowly lash his soul
until it becomes so sore and raw
that it cannot hear the slightest
weight of criticism.
He learns quickly that wealth is
not the chief essential in life. so his
kit of burdens becomes unwieldy and
he sinks exhausted beneath its ever-
pressing weight. utterly isolated from
consoling companionship. a thousand
times more destitute than when he
was in his days of obscurity and
small purse. Times are changed
with him. The road lies long in the
glare of rebuke under which the
fates have forced him to travel to
the end. Better a crust of bread
than victory with so many smarts.
