GIT rs NOTHING"

De yea remember. long and long ago.
When griefs came-weighty griefs that
meet a child
And you went in to her to sob your woe.
How patiently and soothingly she smiled
Do you remember how she healed each
bruise
And stopped the hurt THAI came from
slip or fallf
How suddenly the little pain you'd lose
At: Tits nothing-nothing much. at all
Do you remember how. long, long ago.
Yeu would awaken. trembling in your
fright
When some fearsome things. which only
children know.
Were peering wildly at you from tho
night?
Do you remember how she made you see
They were but waving shadows on the
wall,
And how she wove into lullaby
Her 1T is nothing-nothing much, atallr'
And you remember, long and long ago,
Hew every little fret OF night or day
Before her talisman, when whispered low,
Would vanish, would be driven quite
away;
And you remember. too. how each soft
word
A newer happiness to you would call.
Az though the joys Of youth came when
they heard
Her ut is nothtng-nothing much, at ALL"
And can you hear It nowf OF all the rest
That life has let US keep within our hold.
This memory must be the very best
This precious thing that is not bought or
sold.
When days are dark and nights are sad
dened, now,
Out from the shroudiug silence does
there fall,
While her cool fingers seem to touch the
brow
This: "It IL nothing-nothing much. at

their little mountain farm.
This required only a short time,
however, and on Tuesday morning
they found themselves drifting with
the crowd toward the college. wholly
ignorant of the exercises geing on
there The scene on the inside was
a revelation to both, for never before
had an Avery, from stump House,
been within a college building. There,
upon the high old rostrum. sat the
young men of the graduating class,
clothed in their best. the center OF at
traction to all the vast assembly be-
low. One by one they stood before
the audience, and with fervent. rustic
eloquence delivered their graduating
speeches, each Of which called forth
enthusiastic applause, loads Of now.
erS, and crash Of discordant
music from the noisy brass band
in the gallery. Then, when the
speeches were all over, the gayly be-
ribboned diplomas we're handed to
the graduates by the president, after
which came more applause and an
other rapturous burst of music from
the gallery. The scsne-impressive
to those who were nost accustomed
to Watauga commencements-was
one which remained forever fadeless
in the memories of the mountaineer
brothers.
The Arveys' journey homs that aft
ernoon was an unusually quiet one.
For hour after hour neither spoke;
both sat gazing in 4 kind of trance
upon the mountain scenery which had
been familiar to them from childhood.
Ne sound disturbed the stiffness ex-
oept the rumble Of the wagon and
the hoof-strokes Of the little mules
upon the finty mountain road. 1t
was the older brother who broke the
silence.
"Tom," he said. "I'm gwine ter
stan on tibet same platform some
day an say my speech an git my
paper"
i've sworn the same. Gus" came
the laconic reply; 'the Arveys hsv
got ter be heerd frum"
1t was doubtless fortunate for the
brothers that they could not compre-
bend the obstacles that lay between
them and the doors Of the college;
both had times of encouragement,
and It required the strongest deter.
mination, combined with frequent
visits to Watsuga for fresh inspira-
ton, to keep them faithful. At the
end of three years, however, by per-
sistent labor and with the aid of the
teacher at Double Springs, himself q
Watauga graduate, they had pre-
pared themselves for entrance into
college.
As 1t was found impossible for both
to attend at the same time, the
rather delicate situation arose Of
deciding which one should first enjoy
the coveted privilege.

The MOuntaineer'S
Dream
BY HUGH A. C. WALKER

r HE air Of sleepy quiet which had
brooded over the little valley
town for year had changed to buzz
of excitement. Commencement was on
again at Watauga college; the town
was full of enthusiastic alumni and
visiting friends from every corner OF
the surrounding country.
It was on a different errand that
the two Arvey brothers had come
down from their home on Stump
House in their white-covered wagon.
Only a month before their father had
died, leaving his large family depend
ent upon the two grown-up sons, and
they were at Watauga for the purpose
of strengthening up his small business
affairs and making certain arrange
ments concerning the management Of
