breeze, they wrote the virgin page to-
gether, Tommie welding the graphite
laboriously as became SO momentous
an undertaking.
Then it was decided that each, in
turn, should write a chapter until all
was finished.
When the end was reached and the
book bound in a cloth cover torn from
the pillow-tick in their dormitory, to-
gether they would take it to the gar
den fence, where, with her trlsklng
playmates, chartered the fairy en-
chantress of their boynood dreams,
the queen with the hair of sunset and
the eyes of cerulean blue.

ted and itched for his turn Upon he
ground above the precious manuscript.
The interest, accentuated as the time
sped, became almost vital as each
tried to excel the other in the eyes of
the future critic in the big brick house
upon the hill.
Then-somehow, neither seemed to
know how, OF why, or when-there
crept into their rendezvous that hide
Gus, insatiate monster, Jealousy; a

himself the hero, each seeking in turn
to lead nearer to a great, grim wall of
towering stone behind which in a
castle of igneous boulders dwelt a
woman who, to call her q~ueenly fair,
would be to fiatter queens.
Her eyes were blue as the %Ingraham
skies, her hair was as golden hued as
the naples in Autumn when the sun
was setting on them, and her voice rip
pied and fell in a cadence of rhythmic
melody enhancing to list!
And yet-suddenly the realization
came like a call to arms-there was
but n heroine!
There could be but one hero!
All, the tragedy of boy life, the in
tensity of boy love, innocent, pure,
indebted, the noblest love hat sex
e'er gave to sex, the sweetest and the
blessedest that God e'er vouchsafed to
beautiful womanhood!
The rivalry of love and despair,
wrestling like demons with the stall
warts of a.].ectiop and comradeship,
writhed and twisted in a close en-
brace! Co~mplainingly, each sought at
first to defeat the purpose of the other,
out as the story grew toward it's nat

Away to the west in the Valley of
fngraham, where the amethystine sky
droops in a sapphire protectorate
over the u%ndulating ~sub-valleys and
the sloping hiilsides; away to the
west, where the winter, yielding to
spring, bursts like al emerald lily un-
folding it's petals, where the sum1ner
Is dreamy as hashish, and where the
glorious golden Autumn is a panorama
OF prism-kissed grandeur, there stands
amid luxuriant elms on a southern
Boys. Maintained in a limited degree
OF security and comfort by the fitful
appropriations of state, and the philan-
thropic donations of the charitably
rich, it drones along through chang
ing years, a peaceful haven for the in
FAINT outcasts on a stormy sea.
Here among the zephyr-lulled sur
roundings, with the fitting birds that
pipe their songs of gladness and their
twitterings of grief, dwelt Thomas
FitZmack and Frederick Schaub, two
adolescent particles of human debris
gathered from the wreck-strewn wa
ters Of Fate. OF their parents they
knew nothing except a fragmentary
recital by a kindly and imaginative
~preceptress Injured to satisfying blood
longing by building upon the merest
fragments of known knowledge,
snatches of strange, almost inconceiv-
able family history. This, instead of
satisfying the childish yearning for a
mother or a father, but fed the fire of
longing, inspiring the two bOyish
hearts to reach GU their tendrils of
affection for tangible support. And
each, finding nothing on which to
fasten, turned from pure sympathy to
the other, twining and INTERVENING
his love about a common c~omradeship.
Then into the Valley of Ingraham,
under the amethystine sky, there came
a story book-and a little girl with
curls like the gold-bronzed leaves on
the side-hills in October, with eyes
like the azure skies in Indian Sung er,
with a laugh like the ripple upor the
rosy pebbles at the ford-and she
gave them the book from beyond the
garden wall of the Home. where she
dwelt in a great, brick house that
stood like a castle within the naples
upon the hill.
She proffered it as they stood open
mOuthed, awe-stricken, gazing across
the ledge. AS the boys fingered, spell
bound, she fed her squirrels and chat
tered with the chipmunks in chorus.
Thomas and Frederick accepted the
book with that strange reticence that
sexes awaken in each other even at
so tender an age as ten, and ran away
into the woods to peruse it.
And the story! What a wonderful.

readers wandered in their enchant-

| But through it all there pulsed the
breath of contrition and regret.
He was finishing the manuscript
when the writer entered, within his
yearning eyes a hating look of fear
and doubt, a glance of mingled hope
and anticipated defeat wrestling for
mastery.
To win meant food and a chance; to
fail. perhaps starvation and the bitter
end.
Frederick Schaub arose tremblingly,
intense in his gaze. Before him stood
the boy who had been his best friend,
the collaboration of his first literary
effort, the rival who had taken from
him his first boyish love; his master

The other, calm, possessed, cast

was. AVA back there among the hills
and, Fred, we're-we're hungry up

But the conclusion was drowned in
the rough embrace that fell upon and
about him.

the sight of the strong man sobbing
before him.

again, back in the Ingraham Valley.

After all, what did the book matter!

And for this he had beaten and humil

friend! Because he was the stronger
he had been tyrannous, and had used
his brute strength as became a tyrant,
Weeping at last. he sought his com.
rade to implore forgiveness, to say
that they would write another and a
better book. and he, Frederick, might
be the hero all the time, might marry
the queen of the castle and "be happy
ever afterward'-but Frederick was
not to be found!
Diligent search was made by the
school authorities, and, on holidays for
weeks, the sorrowing, lonely Thomas
made long pilgrimages into the coun-
tryside in quest of his former play
mate. but to no avail!
A year later. i~nconsolable, forsaken
and alone, Thomas, too, left the Home,
upon the stern mission of making his
W career.
The day vas drawing to a close in
the great city as Frederick Schaub,
editor of the International journal,
closed his desk preparatory to going
out for dinner. His great coat was
half on, as a presumptuous caller, de-
termined in his persistence, crowded
past the protesting Office boy and
stood before him.
