The display of jewels was simply

tops of which were thickly set with

woman had her hair arranged high on

Although the brewery had been there
but short time, it's influence was felt
sadly. In the back room of the village

that yonder brick building was an

Everglade High School, and he now lay
beneath a shady elm thinking of the
hard lessons he had learned, of his lit
tie misbehaviors in the past, and what
he meant to do in the future.
He was light-hearted, good natured,
boyish, but by no means thoughtless
or careless. His mind wandered from
one thing to another until his thoughts
were centered on the NEUROLOGICAL tale
OF the strange young man of old whose
name he bore.
He slept-and this is the dream he
dreamed:
He saw the mighty Siegfried at the
ancient forge. He heard the clang Of
the great hammer as it fell on the an

He watched the skillful hand put the

Again he saw the man of valor with
sword poised above the figure of a man,
seated on a rock, clad in armor, an

The sword remained but an instant.
1t fell with the force of thunderbolt
from the hand of Jupiter. The armor
burst asunder and blood bathed the
mountain SIDE All! where was the
boosted armor? where the conceited
man who made it?
Siegfried awoke. Drops of cold per-
SEPARATION stood on his forehead.
What did it all mean? Had he really
seen the mighty warrior he had read
so much of? Where was he?
He sat upright and looked about him.
He found himself on the bank of the
Everglade mill-stream which swept
swiftly toward it's outlet.
The lofty elm still stretched forth it's
protecting branches to shade him from
the suns fury.
Siegfried gazed dazedly about him,
reiterating his dream time and again
with an endeavor to interpret it.
Across the stream and farther down,
a dense black smoke rose from the
chimney of a large brick building, stu

the village center. 1t was the village
