No Rocky FOrdE" in Rocky Ford
A Kansas man who attended the
watermelon festival at Rocky Ford
says he never saw anything like it be-
fore in his life. There were more than
1000 people on the grounds. Between
5000 and 10000 watermelOns were
stacked in great heaps along some rude
tables. A hundred men with long
knives slashed the melons open and
every one ate his Ill. But what struck
the Kansas man as curious was the a0-

place is 50 Justly famed

THEY were standing together be-

THEY were standing together be-
fore a wide eNpansc of canvas.
The woman studied the painting and
the man studied the woman. He had
known her for a year and yet he
knew her not at all. The rugged out
side of the business-woman life was
easily comprehended. 1t was the oc-
sasional soft cleaning Of poetic ten
derness that puzzled him. Was it
real?
If il was sham, why did she not do
more Of it? Certainly it was charm
ing. If it was real, how could she in
lulge in it so little.
And yet again, if it were not real,
how could she stand so fascinated be
fore such a picture-a mass of pine
tops against dim night sky, the
trunks lost i'm the darkness. Low
bands of clouds lay above, and riding
over all serene fun moon, half
yelled by a misty film-the whole
scene POLITICALLY tender-with the
evanescent wistfulness of Frank
Stanton's love-songs. Why should it
appeal to this stern woman of af-
fairs?
Yet so strongly did it appeal to her
that she stood there obliyious of all
else. Stanford studied her az his lcis-
urc.
She was not particularly cookbook
ing; the broad forehead was married
by deep lines between the brows; the
straight nose had become aquiline
from habits of persistent application;
and the mouth was disfgured by an
expression of determination. 1t
might have been a good-looking face,
even a pretty one, Stanford reflected,
if the owner had never got up against
the big things of life and resolved to
win out or die. How absurd TO imagine
that those firm lips could have ever
been tender!
He had had several business trans
actions with her and he knew her TO
be shrewd to hardness. She was the

head of the house that had published
two of his books and rejected third.
Suddenly Stanford remembered why
he had sought her after Office hours.
80 your house has decided to re-
fuse a Light in the Dark?'" he
queried.
Yes" she replied with uncompro-
missing brevity.
"Why?" he persisted. There is no
need to mince matters. You are the

mo money in it,
physiological problems may not
be vastly intsesting to the multitude,
but" he paused invitingly,
"Whatever is iEtrinsically good is a
safe investment-it will find a market
sooner or later"
"Then you hold that my book is not
intrinsically good? l have been told
by eminent critics that it was q clever
piece of work"
Critics are literary men, not
physiognomists. You cannot make a
correct demonstration from a false
hypothesis" The unwillingness to
talk died from her eyes and she turned
TO him with eager insistence.
"You are a physiognomist and a
shrewd one. You understand the
meaning of every line in the human
face, but you have overlooked the I'M
DERIVING lines. You accept to the full
that saying OF Emerson's: And the
man or woman who would have re-
manned sunny garden-fower, with no
room for it's roots and too much sun
shine for its head by the falling of the
walls and the neglect of the gardener
is made the bantam Of the forest But
you have forgotten, as Emerson for
got, that he il ever so much bantam
there must still be some hint of the
sun-loving garden-fower AZ its heart.
Even while giving its branches in
stern protection TO the covering
things at its roots. it must yearn
vaguely for sheltering walls and sun
shine" she turned abruptly toward
the painting.
Stanford moved a step nearer and
stared hard at the canvas. The
problem was solved for him. He re-
membercd now 10 have heard how at
her fathers death she had taken
charge Of the nearly bankrupt house,
by an absolute devotion of time and
energy saved the name from dishonor.
More than that. She had made il one

Stanford's heart-beats quickened.
